Joey:  A few photos of Nemo from Eastern Point.  Best, Pat Morss

 


Hi Joey,

Welcome back from the Sunny Warmth!

With all that fury that Storm Nemo brought over the weekend, Mother Nature smiled a beautiful sunrise this Monday morning at Back Beach in Rockport. The beauty was fleeting as the overcast quickly diminished the spectacle.

Thanks, Skip

Caught this Image of the Ice’y Finger Of Fate, this morning over at Buswell’s…

You can only see them, on the day before a major snow storm….

and only if that day happens to be a Thursday…

So I guess I was pretty lucky…

I don’t pretend to forecast the weather. I only know how to deal with it when it arrives. The photo: “Washington Street, Gloucester, February 8th, 1920.” I just got one of those emergency messages from the Mayor’s office stating that a snow emergency parking ban starts tomorrow, February 8th, and will be enforced as the intensity of the storm increases. Ok. We’ll be open. Bring it on. Thanks for venturing out and taking this photo, with tripod and 5×7 inch camera, Alice M. Curtis. Your legacy continues. The Chocolate Tour is on for Saturday evening.

This is a painting we bought many years ago from Joy Biddle. I believe it was painted looking out of that house. The building across the street is Sailor Stan’s. It’s a shame that the building is now gone.

North Conway, New Hampshire, circa 1950. She doesn’t look like a skier to me. Beautiful state of the art chair lift for the time. Go girl, and don’t lose the hat! Have fun Joey and family.

Access for everyone at the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church as todays ribbon cutting ceremony unveils 2 new platform-lifts.  The installations of the platform-lifts makes access to all 3 levels possible.   The construction effort included: Installation of an outdoor ramp, 2 platform-lift installations, widening doorways & hallways and  bathroom relocation. The funding making all of this possible came from private donors and a grant from the City of Gloucester’s Community Preservation Committee.  The new Chairman, Dick Prouty  announced that the Gloucester UU Church will be looking for ways to reduce the carbon footprint of the church.

Hawk ID Please

Hi,   Snapped this attached picture on Sadler Street.  What kind of hawk is this?  I think it’s a Cooper’s Hawk. It swooped down on my cat.  It is eating a blue jay in this picture from our feeder (see talons). It’s about 20” tall.  Thanks! Kim Frashure
