Joey,
Some pictures of Dawn Mitschele who played with Chelsea Berry at the Crowell Chapel in Manchester last Wednesday did a special show at The Landing at Seven Central in Manchester tonight. She has finished her Northeast swing and is headed across country tomorrow on her way back to San Diego. Her music is on iTunes.

Hi Joey,
I took this with my phone on my run down east Main Street last night. Such a beautiful sunset!

A low sun just managed to light up these two Great Blues. Of course the background reveals they were somewhere beyond the bridge. This was last week on Assateague Island shortly before sunset. I’m hoping you will allow these Virginians to appear on GMG. After all, most of our local GBHs have likely starred here already thanks to Kim, David and so many other talented photographers.

The Magnolia Pier took a beating this winter, I’m sure better days are ahead for her!
Thanks,

Hi Joey,
Not sure this qualifies for the blog, but in the hopes that it does, I’m sending along a couple of pictures of the Easter Bunny taking a beach stroll.
Thanks,

Bob Ryan, President and General Manager of CATOC (Cape Ann Transportation Operating Company) has applied to the Community Preservation Committee for funding to restore Cressy Beach to the way it was when this photo was taken. As you can see by this photo, Cressy Beach was once a sandy beach, on which parents sunbathed while their children chased elephants. Bob says it can be a sandy beach again and he’s done his homework. In a nutshell, here’s what he says about the project,
The project involves the Gloucester Conservation Commission, Mass DEP, the Army Corps of Engineers and Endangered Wildlife and Species Agency. In addition, the “Beach Nourishment” project includes site preparation, topographical survey, engineering plans and bringing in 3,500 tons of sand to cover the beach above the “mean high water area.”
Letters of support are pouring in for this project, including one from Janeil C. Rey, PhD, who also sent this photo. So if you’d like to see Cressy Beach full of sun-bathers, come to City Hall next Tuesday, April 2 and support this project.
PLEASE NOTE: There’s no guarantee you’ll be able to chase elephants into the water once the beach is restored.
Good Morning Gloucester
