Tending Gear. Signs of Gloucester’s rich fishing heritage are always beautiful to spot.

Here’s this week’s line up at the Rhumb Line. Live music seven days each week!

It’s been so nice being able to enjoy the nicer weather and my neighborhood lately. Feeling kind of lucky.

Here’s this week’s live music schedule! Thanks to all who came out to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with us this week!

Join us at the Rhumb Line on St. Patrick’s Day! Corned beef, cocktails, and amazing music. The Bordellos start at 5:00 and these special cocktails are delicious.

The Ipswich location of White Farms Ice Cream opens this Saturday, March 15th. Spring hours are 12:00-8:00. The first customer on Saturday gets a free ice cream.

I stopped at 525 on Sunday morning for breakfast when they opened at 10:30 and asked Larry about the quiche of the day. He had made it himself. When I asked how it was, he replied modestly, “It’s ok.” Well, I assure you it was much more than ok. Maybe the best quiche I’ve ever had….the crust was perfection!

Yup. Man Cave “Hiding from Wife” Phone Rates.

Here’s this week’s Live Music line up at the Rhumb Line on Railroad Ave.

Thank you Oak to Ember for hosting a wonderful team dinner for the Gloucester High School Varsity hockey team on Monday night. Community support means so much to these teams.

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/

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.

Here’s this week’s live music schedule. See you there!

Winter Wonderland. It’s pretty….but I’m ok with it going away now.

Here is this week’s live music schedule at the Rhumb Line. See you there!

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….. 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 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.
