Help Fill the Book Shelves at East Veterans School by shopping at The Bookstore of Gloucester

The Bookstore of Gloucester, 61 Main Street, is happy to be partnering with East Veterans Elementary School’s parent volunteers for a BOOK DRIVE to help fill the school’s library!

As seen on their Facebook page, “We know the importance of literacy, kids having access to windows & mirrors stories, and the value of community support. Help us fill those shelves by buying books for the library at The Bookstore. Books purchased for EVS at the store will be 20% off – just mention EVS at checkout! We have a collection box in store for donated books, as well as a list of books the library would like. We are always happy to make suggestions as well!”

The EVS Book Drive runs until March 9th! https://www.thebookstoreofgloucester.com/

Found Moment

I found my son enjoying a moment and a beautiful sunset. I was happy to watch him from afar for a bit before joing him on the rocks. Simple moments, simple pleasures.

How About Those Drones

How about those drones? Last night was the first time that I actually noticed several drones outside my window. I’ve heard of them, and know plenty of people who have seen them, but have never caught them in action. For the doubters, let me say that I am very accustomed to airplane traffic outside my window waiting to land at Logan airport. These definitely were not planes! I watched about seven of them bob and weave over the water and occasionally head towards land and Magnolia.

Where There’s Irish Coffee……

Where there’s Irish Coffee….. As heard at the Beauport last night upon seeing an Irish Coffee, Chris L said “tell me Pat D is here without telling me Pat D is here.” Gave me such a chuckle. #facts

Not Boating Weather

Not so much boating weather. It’s officially February and the Town Landing at the end of the Essex River is completely frozen. No boating for quite a while it appears.
