I’m going to have a camera-free day…sometime before we leave.  Until then, here is Rockport Harbor and the view from the Headlands in the very early a.m.  So much to see and do, so little time!

Good catch!

Dawn Walk, Old Garden Beach From Ann Kennedy

Hey Joey

It has been awhile since we’ve passed along a heads up on photos/updates from the Blue Shutters, but we wanted to make sure you saw what we just posted on the Blue Shutters blog – some spectacular shots of the Eurodam taken from the Dogbar as the ship left the harbor. 

There are also some photos of Sunday’s road race that ended by the Good Harbor Beach footbridge.

Here’s a link to the blog – hopefully you can use these.  Let us know if you need anything more from us on this.

Genie Willis Submits-

You must have a ton of these by now, but I did post this one on my twitter, saying if you didn’t go to Gloucester today, this is what you missed!  I had a great day in Gtown.  Went to Rocky Neck and saw EJ, bought olive oil and balsamic vinegar from Cape Ann Olive Oil Co., had lunch at Lobstaland.  It is sooo wonderful to play tourist in the hometown.  How much did these ocean travelers pay to get to Gloucester?  Genie

From the Holy Family Parish Picnic last weekend.

Game organizer “Uncle Tony” asks: can you keep a hula hoop going while patting your head and rubbing your tummy?

 

The answer: yes!

Holy Family Parish Picnic

Posted on by Matthew Green

Last weekend, Holy Family parish had it’s annual outdoor Mass and picnic at Stage Fort Park.  I didn’t get any photos of the outdoor Mass, because I consider it inappropriate (at best) to pull out a camera and take photos while wearing liturgical vestments and concelebrating the service. However, I got some nice photos of the fun that came afterwards.  As I am going away on vacation for a week, I will post shots of the different activities in a series of posts.

Today: the men of our local Knights of Columbus cooking and serving a tasty meal!

2012-09-11 Mayor’s Race from Caleb Clapp

Hi Joey

It’s a small world that you almost bought the house we’re buying on Island Rock Lane…once we get rid of the big ugly deck, we’ll have you over for a wine, or more…

It was nice to meet you and eat your 10 lobsters on Saturday!  They were delicious!!

I’ve attached a few full-sail shots of the Mayor’s Cup.  Use what you like.

Take care

–Caleb
