Gloucester Harbor Sunrise Video From Drayton Freeman

Hi!

I’m the person who made the time-lapse video of St. Peter’s Marina that you featured on your Good Morning Gloucester blog. Thank you for sharing it! That’s exactly why I posted it… for others to enjoy.

I live in Boston but am up here in Gloucester house-sitting for 2 friends who have apartments overlooking St. Peter’s Marina. Before I realized you had posted the snowstorm video I made a sunrise time-lapse video in HD with my iPhone. A link is below. Nice Indian Summer sunrise.

Hoax Mayday Calls of Gloucester: What they look and sound like- From Adam Bolonsky

Here’s audio and video of the Coast Guard’s response to that hoax mayday call off Gloucester this summer. 

Sector Boston had to issue a pan-pan, tying up personnel and channel 16.

Meanwhile a fully-crewed motorized lifeboat, one those brawny 47-footers docked at Solomon Landing, had to scour Cape Ann’s shoreline from Eastern Point to Milk and Thachers Islands.

Setting Up The Latitude 43 Webcam With Tim Blakeley Of GloucesterBytes

Tim Had The Dropcam Up and Running Within Ten Minutes. 

The Dropcam will be facing Harbor Cove soon.  There are other webcams out there but for ease of use and not having to go in and mess around with ip addresses and a difficult install the Dropcam can’t be beat.

Once Latitude 43 embeds the code that dropcam provides into their website we will direct people when they click on the Lat 43 webcam screenshot to the Lat 43 website where it will reside.  the idea is to give customers a reason to visit the Lat 43 website.  The opportunities to have daily specials or an entertainment schedule on the page where people will land when they click on the link will turn a static web page that doesn’t change into a web page where it is continually streaming with something interesting to look at- Gloucester’s working waterfront or a live band playing at Minglewood Tavern.

Check Out The Lat 43 webcam and the other live webcams we are installing at www.gloucesterwebcam.com

You can also subscribe to be alerted when a new webcam goes live here- Subscribe to www.gloucesterwebcam.com here

We have 19 webcams scheduled to go live within the next two weeks!

Video- Sista Felicia’s Gorgonzola Pasta Dish On The GDT Website Today

October 11, 2011

Gorgonzola is key in this pasta dish

image

By Times Staff

Gorgonzola is a favorite cheese to cook with or serve in many Italian homes. It is popular in risotto and on polenta but perhaps nothing is as popular as making this cream sauce and serving over pasta. This is one of Felicia Ciaramitaro Mohan’s favorite family recipes. Like many, she prefers serving over a short tubular pasta such as penne instead of something like spaghetti or linguine.

Gorgonzola is a blue cheese that originated in Italy sometime around 800 AD, having been originally made by hanging the cheese moulds in large caves to ripen. Today the cheese is manufactured by injecting the moulds right into the cheese as it begins to age. Traditionally, Gorgonzola is made with raw cow’s milk, although pasteurized and sheep’s milk versions of the cheese are also available. The greenish blue penicillin mould in the cheese imparts a very distinctive sharp and spicy smell that contrasts with the creamy white cheese surrounding it.

Sundown, Moonrise, and Sunup Eastern Point Gloucester Video From Kim Smith

 

Kim writes-

Looking for butterflies on Eastern Point and videotaping the sun setting as the moon was rising. I passed Niles Pond on the drive home and stopped to admire the moonglow over the water. The following dawn brought flaming red skies, a cygnet plaintively searching for its family, and a startlingly large (at least 2 feet in height) Black-crowned Night Heron. Quawking loudly as the sun began to rise, there was a half dozen more roosting in a nearby tree.

Video- Seven Seas Navigator Depature Timelapse From Bill O’Connor

Hi Joey,

I took this time lapse of the Seven Seas Navigator leaving port just after dusk, and thought it might be fun enough to share!  I forgot to lock the auto focus, which is why it gets blurry at the end.

Enjoy! ~Bill O’Connor

Video Interview- Local Banking Part I A Conversation With Bob Gillis

People like to speak about shoping locally.  Often times they are talking about retail shopping or buying local fish, lobsters, produce and sourcing food as close to home as possible.

What often gets overlooked are our local banks who have in the past and are currently, extremely involved in our community.  Not only do they provide local jobs but more often than not they keep the money that you save as deposits here and turn around and lend that money back into the community.  They also back many local charities and treat you as a person and not just an account number.  It’s nice to have someone recognize you when you walk through the doors.

I don’t always advocate to do business locally.  I’ll be the first to admit that if there is an item out of town where there is a huge discrepancy in price I will shop out of town.  However when things are close to even slightly higher priced the benefits of keeping it local go way beyond what you put in your pocket.  There is a ripple effect where the entire community benefits.

We highlight the benefits of local banking in light of the fee based banking structure of large national banks.  Here is part I with Bob Gillis Of Cape Ann Savings Bank.

When you get your Bank of America statement this month and decide that you’ve finally had enough, check out what our local banks, Cape Ann Savings Bank, Bank Gloucester and Rockport National have to offer.   I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

…and don’t forget to tell ’em Joey sent ya.

Look for my interview with Patrick Thorpe From Bank Gloucester tomorrow.
