Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary

Posted on by Pat D

While we were out and about these week, we came across Mass Audubon’s Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary in Lincoln. Of course we had to stop and it turned out to be quite a delightful side excursion. We are Mass Audubon members so admission was free but the rates are modest. It’s a great spot for a family outing with youngsters (we plan to take the grandson next time he visits). This working farm and sanctuary are only about an hour away. There are enough trails, activities and sights to make the trip well worthwhile. The farm animals alone will keep the children engaged. There are a number of birds and animals on display in a zoo-like manner which appear to be very well cared for and fascinating. AND there are meats and other farm fresh items available for purchase. Yes, I realize it’s “off island” but if you’re looking to entertain visiting children, this is a good take.

A Visit To Ponyhenge

Posted on by Pat D

We saw a random Facebook post referencing “Ponyhenge” , a roadside collection of carefully arranged, previously loved hobby horses. This sight is on a rather rural road in Lincoln MA and you are not likely to stumble on it accidentally. It was a lovely day but a bit windy so the horses appeared to be rocking along on their own as we took a look around. It’s not a large area, smaller than I was anticipating but jam packed with all manner of rocking horses. You’ll notice a Radio Flyer as well as a Flexible Flyer. It’s my understanding that these occasionally get re-arranged. It’s obviously well tended (some have ties and scarves!) even if just a little creepy. For additional photos and story details, check out Pat D’s Photos and Adventures on Facebook.

Video- Good Morning Gloucester French Onion Soup Tour – Lobsta Land

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

With Summer slamming to a close and it being cold and raw out we’re gonna do a roundup of the best French Onion Soup around town, probably including all of Cape Ann.

Criteria which I think we can all agree on- served in a proper French Onion soup crock, the cheese be the right mix and crusted over the top, the broth be hearty and most importantly, flavor.

Here’s Lobsta Land. Please nominate local place where you think they have great French Onion soup for us to try. Let me know where you think we should go next.
