Hello Joey ,
I enjoy reading your web page every day!
I enjoyed seeing my friend Capt Gary Cannel landing his prize catch the other day.
I was wondering if you like to receive photos from captains of prize catches they have made in Gloucester waters?
A customer of mine landed a 50 lb bass last Thursday and I have a photo posted on my homepage (www.fullstrikeanglers.com).
If you would like to use it I would be glad to send you a higher resolution photo.
Keep up the great work!
Regards,

Capt. George Lemieux

We’ve been nurturing our milkweed patches to welcome back the Monarch butterflies, but there’s been no sign of them for two years now.  We do have a flock of these on our milkweed, however.  By the color I figure they are transmogrified Monarchs.  Awaiting verification from Kim Smith.

Hi Joey,

I would like to thank the 15 Annisquam Garden Tour homeowners and the many Garden Club and Generous Gardener Volunteers for helping make an unforgettable day.  Here is a collage of some photos put together by Jacqueline Ganim-DeFalco and some additional photos by Susanne Guyer.  The whole village of Annisquam was amazing.

Whale’s Jaw 1934

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hey Joey!

Don’t know if this would be of any interest to anyone but the shot is from 1934 at Whale’s Jaw in Dogtown…  second from left is my Mother, Jean Burkhard.  To her right is her sister, Marjorie Burkhard.  The two girls to her left are her first cousins, Virginia and Joyce Burkhard.  Up top is cousin, Tom Burkhard with a friend.  Tom is living in SC… flew Corsairs in WWII in the Pacific Theater.  Tom’s son, Tom Burkhard, MD, just retired as a Second Admiral in charge of medical personnel in the Pacific.  Photo was probably taken by Virginia and Joyce’s Father, Stan Burkhard (my great-uncle), who lived to 101 and died at his home at Thurston Place, Bearskin Neck.  All pictured are descendants of both John Pool and Richard Tarr, co-settlers of Rockport in the late seventeenth century.
