We finally ate at Taj last night. In a word – outstanding! A must visit. Oh, and the cocktails are delicious. GMG approved.

Back in March, April, and May….when we were not doing anything or going anywhere…. my 13 year-old (who I guess was still 12 at the time) and I would go for long drives in the afternoon. My younger son was content to stay home, but Thatcher is a lot like me….and needs a good field trip each day. Sitting still is not a strength of his. Fast forward to November and he’s still home each day for school and by 2:15 is itching to do something. When the weather is nice he hops on his bike after his last remote class, but with the weather getting colder and the daylight disappearing earlier, that isn’t always ideal. So, on Tuesday we hopped in the car after I got home from work and took a very familiar trip around the Cape. The sunset was spectacular, but equally nice was grabbing some of that one-on-one time that has been a bit more absent these days.
It was nice to stand back and watch him enjoy the sunset. It reminded me of a day several years ago…. (second photo)…when I watched both boys appreciate the sun setting in Ipswich after leaving Russel Orchards. Our days are strange right now….but, they are still going by way too quickly. I’ll miss moments like this.


Blessed in Gloucester. End of day light on the back shore this week. No retouching needed.

The sun was slowly going down on Tuesday evening and then it turned blazing red.

Jane Deering Gallery shares a few images and news about the next show:
Joy! Joy Halsted | what I’ve been doing in the time of …. (covid) opening November 13th Jane Deering Gallery . 19 Pleasant Street . Gloucester, MA.
‘There is no artist on earth like Joy Halsted,’ wrote Pat Lowery Collins in her 2015 interview with the artist. The multi-faceted Halsted is an inventive, provocative, irreverent, playful, politically-aware, and process-oriented artist. And what has Joy Halsted been doing these many months since life and Covid-19 locked her and all of us indoors? Using process once again to compulsively knit. To knit hats with corona pompoms attached at the top. Anti-corona hats, as Joy nicknames them.
‘Humor is our saving grace,’ she writes. ‘The atmosphere is serious; we’re all feeling a bit lost. As an artist, I felt the need to raise spirits; to offer a new perspective.’
Joy Halsted
Anti-corona hats @ $35 . The gallery will donate to The Open Door. Gallery hours: Friday, Saturday & Sunday 1:00-3:00pm and always by appointment @ 917-902-4359.


We watched as this fishing boat left the harbor, went past the breakwater, and by the skyline of Boston.

It was a pretty afternoon at Lane’s Cove recently. Lucky enough indeed.
