This summer, Cape Ann will celebrate its diversity through a joyful and enriching cultural event: the Cape Ann Jewish Cultural Festival.

It will take place onSunday, June 8th, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester and is open to the entire community.
Organized by the Chabad Jewish Center of Cape Ann, the event is designed to foster connection, cultural appreciation, and community spirit.

Scalloping. I spend a lot of time over at Cape Ann Marina and have taken more than my share of photos, but this scene caught my eye the other day while driving down the causeway. I had to turn around and go back to sit and enjoy it for a bit. This dock, typically home to sport fishing boats, pleasure boats, and a few lobster boats…is now full of large scalloping vessels here for the season. It struck me as kind of a juxtaposition of what I normally see and photograph, but is equally as beautiful. The boats and hard working crews in all aspects of our fishing industry always strike me…and remind me how fortunate we are to live somewhere so special. And seeing Finn’s view, across the river at Gloucester High School, always makes me laugh. If I know my son, he spends 1/2 his day looking out the window wishing he was on the water.
Today’s the day for the special election regarding multi family zoning to comply with Massachusetts State zoning law referred to as 3A. Polls have been open since 7 AM and will close at 8 pm. Participate in the process and vote! I’ll be at East Veterans all day so stop by and say hello.

Hi Joey,
I hope you are enjoying this spring weather!
I was hoping you would be able to help promote National Drug Takeback Day in Good Morning Gloucester. The event is taking place this Saturday, April 26th from 10 am to 1 pm at the Rose Baker Senior Center. This biannual event promotes the importance of safely disposing of unused medications and is sponsored by the Gloucester Health Department, Gloucester Police Department, and the Rose Baker Senior Center.
Maybe still less evident, but our wildlife is always out there.

Ramping Up. While walking through Magnolia you can’t help but feel that summer is coming. It was a foggy, yet beautiful, day along the harbor yesterday.
I really needed some tulip time so we (I) decided to take a ride to Wicked Tulips in Exeter RI to see if the claims were true about a great tulip field. It’s a HUGE field (1.5 million bulbs planted) and your ticket allows you to pick 10 tulips per ticket. On this beautiful school vacation day, the field was full of young families and visitors taking in the colorful beds and taking home their own tulips. It’s about a 2.5 hour drive so it makes a nice day trip.
We had a bit of a delay at the beginning of the trip due to a GPS setting that we missed changing so we ended up driving through a number of Boston neighborhoods unexpectedly, but good ole GMG Jim got us back on track. I come up with some wild plan and he does his best to make it happen. He’s the best. Thanks Jim! PS for additional photos and story details check out Pat D’s Photos and Adventures on Facebook.
