Signs at Good Harbor Beach

 Friday June 4 was a beach day for some.  It was a beautiful day but only a few enjoyed it.

As I entered the parking lot, and was greeted by Mark Haverland, I noticed how many signs were posted, around that little booth.

The beach was not crowded, but the life guard was watching every person who ventured towards the water.

I also met a family from Concord, with their college aged daughters, I think the father was taking a break from tuition, and two women from Canada, Petra, and Ruth.  It is always interesting to talk to people and why they come to Gloucester, the response is always because they LOVE IT.  We are lucky!

hi all,

Bargain hunters, collectors, single moms and lovers of Cape Ann are all invited tomorrow to the Timebanks garage sale fundraiser being held on the front and back lawn of #1 Kent Circle directly across from Stage Fort Park. We will be there selling our treasures whether it is sunny or raining cats and dogs. A little rain never hurt anyone and we are hoping you will stop by between 9am and 1pm. Half of the proceeds go to Cape Ann Timebanks and half to the member participants.

Tell your friends, family and former paramours about it too….see you there! At night you can then join us at Alchemy’s relaunch party from 6-10pm. It is going to be a great weekend.

John Nesta Gallery

The John Nesta Gallery on Rocky Neck

I had Great Time Visiting John at his Gallery on Rocky Neck this past weekend. He is a wealth of information on Painting and the Gloucester Waterfront. If you’ve never been, put it on your “ToDo” List.

John’s there 7 days a week, All Year Long. You can usually see his Red Van or as he calls it his “Studio on Wheels” parked out front.

He has an Easel and everything else he needs for Painting in the back so he can paint in any weather conditions. 

John is a prolific Painter and you’ll see that when you visit his Gallery.

Here are some Photos I took Last weekend at The John Nesta Gallery.
