Different perspective on the Magnolia Pier design.  It almost looks like the Crusader crosses on their vest.  It was cloudy so the sky and ocean looked silver.

Heading out from the State Pier

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

At the State Pier on a cloudy Monday watching this fishing boat leave the safe harbor.  The sign that states danger rocks, also makes you think about how dangerous it is for our fishing vessels to fish everyday.

At the Middle Street Walk I was at City Hall.  Lots of great entertainment and fun.  The Brewin Brass Band, Backyard Growers,Gingerbread Houses, Highland Dance Group and Miss Tina’s Dancers rounded off a fun time.
