My View of Life on the Dock
The season has started and the fishing is getting great. Check out the Yankee Fleet’s fishing schedule and book your trip now. If you’re lucky you might get to spend your day with this kid too. I might be a little biased. Find them at yankeefleet.com or 978-283-0313
Sharing information from the Gloucester Police Department Facebook page:
We made our annual trek to Tip Top Tulips at Felix’s Family Farm on Lowes Lane in Ipswich (behind Dairy Queen) which is always a delight. Though the fields are not yet at peak, the farm staff expects them to be in time for the next 2 weekends: May 2-3 as well as Mother’s Day weekend. Tulips are really my very favorite flowers and I cannot get enough of them. Pick-Your-Own is offered as well as photo opps and various farm animal viewing opportunities. Get your tickets and more info at this link. It’s an appropriate May Day post! Happy May Day!
Pat Dalpiaz will be at our shop at 44 Main St today and tomorrow 11-5PM available in light pink or light blue. Also available with the thirsty seagull embroidered patch.
I believe there are roughly 8 available.
Rick and I finally were able to get o to Sugar Magnolias for lunch on Wednesday. Wonderful space, great service and delicious food. So nice to have Sugar Mags back.
Rick had the Tuna Melt with pasta salad, and I had the Dion Chicken salad with fresh fruit. Both dishes were wonderful. Thank you Sugar Magnolia for being back on Main Street.
Eagerly Awaited…

We had ice cream for dinner recently at White Farms Ice Cream on Essex Ave. Having ice cream for dinner now and again is good for the soul. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Good Morning Gloucester
