My View of Life on the Dock

We will also be having a raffle for her egret print below. Come to 21C Lexington Ave in Magnolia, MA to buy tickets. Proceeds from the raffle go to Open Door, Gloucester’s food pantry. So, you can enjoy seeing amazing art and help out the less fortunate. See you then!
Minglewood Harborside is our go-to “Let’s have dinner and a drink” and be comfortable choice especially on weeknights. Jim really wanted to try the new Twin Lights beer and I had a craving for buffalo tenders. You can’t see it in the picture as well as I hoped, but these tenders were steaming when they got to the table. They were done to perfection: nice and tender with just the right amount of sauce! Jim enjoyed his fish sandwich which is another favorite for both of us. Sarah was a great server. When I opened the Serenitee app, there was an unexpected bonus of $10 off waiting for us!! Win, win.
For those wondering, seating is appropriately spaced for virus restrictions, staff are masked up, contact info is taken, limited capacity is strictly adhered to. It feels quite safe. Hope to see you there soon!

After the storm….

Finn has been asking for a tuna avocado maki roll and truffle fries from Minglewood Harborside for weeks now. We’ve ordered take out twice recently, but he wasn’t home either time. So, last night while Thatch was on the ice for practice, Finn and I ran over for a quick dinner. With an added order of wings along with his fries and sushi….and the Bruins game on one TV with the Milwaukee Bucks (he’s got a thing for #34 Giannis Antetokounmpo) on another, Finn was a happy camper. I had my go-to favorite, the Gloucester Roll, and it was phenomenal as always!

We watched an interesting story from our back deck recently as a hawk flew with great determination to a spot in the marsh. It was low tide, so the area was frozen over and some snow covered the area. After it landed, it looked around the ground for a bit and then began to claw and stamp at the frozen grasses, presumably seeking lunch. It stomped around, digging up the grass but coming up empty of prey. It was intriguing to watch deliberate moves I’ve never seen from a hawk before. He then flew off to rest in a branch to think about Plan B. We’ve been seeing hawks a little more often recently and are wondering if they will be returning to their nest in a nearby tree this year.
Self credited with righting the GMG ship, McCarthy will never let me forget how much his presence on the podcast got Good Morning Gloucester back on track.
