That in addition to his quirky mission to leave behind inspirational message carved on boulders strewn throughout Dogtown, Roger Ward Babson was also fascinated by the history of the people who inhabited the Commons Settlement and marked the cellar holes of the long ago inhabitants of this community.  This is cellar hole number 22.  As you can see, the homes were pretty small back in the 1600’s.

The Rockport Department of Public Works is once again in the process of converting downtown parking meter posts into holiday tree stands, as Rockport makes ready for its  annual Christmas in Rockport celebration.  The DPW is also working to find the perfect evergreen tree to place in Dock Square, and is inviting any Rockport homeowner with a suitable tree (approximately 35 feet in height) to contact the DPW office at 978-546-3525.  Representatives of the DPW will select the most suitable tree from among those offered, then work with the property owner to remove the tree and prepare it for its new home in Dock Square celebrating Christmas in Rockport 2011.  This year’s annual Tree Lighting Ceremony will take place on Saturday, December 3, beginning at approximately 4:00 pm.

Hi Joey,

I was wondering if you could put on Good Morning Gloucester. I’ve put together a website for my daughter Savannah. She was born without tibias and walks on prosthetic legs. We are trying to raise money to purchase an adaptive bicycle for her, which would allow her to pedal with her hands and steer by leaning. Her website is www.bikeforsavannah.com, and there’s also a Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/bikeforsavannah.

Thanks so much, Len Pallazola

Hi Joey!

I’m a casting producer for ABC’s Supernanny and Bravo’s The Real Housewives of NYC and I’m casting for a new relationship docu-series about married couples to be aired on a major cable network. I’m also a native Gloucester girl, by the way.

I was wondering if I could convince you to post about our casting call. This show promises to put the sizzle back into a love life that has fizzled, and we’re specifically looking for *married couples in the Boston area* here is more info:

CASTING NEW RELATIONSHIP DOCU-SERIES

The producers behind ABC’s Supernanny and Bravo’s The Real Housewives of NYC are casting for a new relationship docu-series about married couples who need to put the sizzle back into a love life that has fizzled.

This show aims to put sexy back into a hum-drum romantic life. We’re looking for smart, sassy, funny (maybe a little self-deprecating), married couples who need to amp up the spark in their relationships — couples who are ready for a life changing opportunity to transform their love life.

Some examples of what we’re looking for:

"The couple who threw everything into raising their babies but have all but forgotten how to make them… The career focused power couple – who rarely have the energy to close any deals in the bedroom… or the former high school sweethearts, who like so many married couples, are just, stuck in a rut."

We are looking for dynamic, outgoing Bostonians who are between the ages of 22 and 45, who are *very* attractive and ready to tell their stories. To be considered, couples should contact casting producer Janelle Randazza by December 16th, 2011 at randazzacasting@gmail.com with their names, ages, city, contact info, a few recent photos and a paragraph about themselves and their marriage.
