By now, I think you know Minglewood on Rogers Street is one of our very favorite local restaurants. We stopped by recently after a little holiday shopping for the perfect ending to the day. There are extra precautions in place but it did not feel restrictive—just welcoming and safe. As they say, there’s always something going on at Minglewood, and now that I’ve seen the post about their Patti-tini, I’m going to have to get back there soon!

Many of you might not know that I’m 4th. Generation Gloucester born. This story is about my Paternal Great Grandfather published in the Gloucester Times 1931. My Great grandfather fished out of #Gloucesterma on the Morning Star and when came home from fishing he was informed of his wife’s passing. He passed away a few weeks later. Fishing was part of my heritage. My fathers ancestors arrived here in the 1860’s from Nova Scotia and My Moms ancestors even earlier arrived here from Ireland. God Bless the men and women who still work to bring fish to Gloucester. I am #gloucesterproud

Here are some weekend photos around Eastern Point following the snowstorm. Regarding the first, the closest conjunction (visual) of Saturn and Jupiter since the Middle Ages is right now. I knew it would be overcast, so got this picture last Friday.

Gloucester is tough to match for winter lights charm and show stopping homes. From Beach Court to Stage Fort; West Gloucester to East; Magnolia to Annisquam; and Portuguese Hill to Plum Cove- Gloucester is illuminated. Many neighborhoods join in together glittering, and have for years. With each passing new day more join in.
Concentrated streets include:
Essex Avenue is beautiful and long– and it’s good driving from both directions. I split it up into Essex Ave stretch between Causeway Restaurant and Richdale and
Essex Avenue stretch (between Richdale and Rt.128 and then to Farnham’s)
Elizabeth Road neighborhood block
Reynard Street neighborhood block and Spruce Street expansive, elaborate displays
Hartz street charming sweet little block
Finch Lane delightful little block
Annisquam for an old timey route, mostly white & gold lights with multi colored trees at turns on the road.

This year’s trends include peace signs, illuminated words, melting multis, and a particular blue-green light (outlining windows in photo below).
Clear, mild nights make it easier to park, walk and linger. Snow and rain make for lovely routes, too.
