My View of Life on the Dock



Just under 50,000 views per day for a hyperlocal blog in a city of 30,000. I guess we have some reach 😉


With masks and social distancing went to Deb’s on Sunday for the Cape Ann Artisan Tour. Deb is so talented and her paintings are just stunning.

Done mowin’….



Love the face Gloucester’s Man at the Wheel shows so much. Shop local, you can purchase this towel directly through me directly or at Arts Abound at 21C Lexington Avenue, Magnolia, Gloucester, MA 01930. These Beach towels make great gifts. Thank you.

The beautiful colors shimmering in yesterday’s sunshine over the salt marsh caught my eye enough to turn around, park, and take a few photos.

A pair of magnificent bald eagles came to rest in a tree in our backyard yesterday afternoon in Magnolia. One was calling out and it sounded as though “she” was right next to me. The call went right through me. If you look carefully at these pictures, you can see the one on the upper branch calling out. The pair flew off and a singleton landed again a few minutes later, so I can only confirm 2 in the area though it could possibly be 3. Hoping to see them again soon. What a sight!!!!

This from Apple Toolbox:
“Unfortunately, at this time, there is no way to separate the volume of your iPhone’s ringer for phone calls from the alert volume for things like alarms, texts, emails, messages, and other alerts–their sound is set at the same volume.
And we really don’t know why Apple ties both the ringer and alerts volume to the same volume slider. It’s doesn’t make sense for how we use our devices today!
So you cannot lower the volume for any alarm you use to wake up in the morning (or for whatever) without lowering the volume for incoming calls.
The current recommendation is to turn down the ringer volume slider each night, then turn it back up in the morning so you don’t miss any phone calls. Yeah…not ideal!”
