Rocky Neck

Posted on by Nichole S.

Our morning schedule has been a bit different this week and Finn and I have been finding ourselves driving through Rocky Neck each morning before I drop him off. While many of the homes are empty this time of year it is pretty bustling down in the railways and waterfront. Getting ready for summer.

Join us on Wednesday for our next Women’s Networking Event!

We want to create a space for women to come together, and share in the power of storytelling. This week we’ll hear from Jill Brown, and the story of how she overcame unexpected challenges in life with the help of her community and Wellspring House. We’ll also have a raffle with prizes like a massage from Life Bloom, a 5 Class Pass to Treetop Yoga and more!

For more information check out our event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/652452728861265/

Or send RSVPs to rsvp@grandbanksbp.com

We’re looking forward to seeing you here!

Scenic Ride Along 127

Posted on by Pat D
In my time volunteering at the Visitors’ Center, I am often asked what’s the best way to “get a feel” for Cape Ann and I always recommend driving the perimeter on 127/127A. The map below is my feeble attempt to finger-draw the route I suggest they take. (Not to scale, as they say…..and not to many other standards either…..) The next question invariably is “How long does it take?” and I would answer with a wild guess. Yesterday I decided to drive the route, make a few scenic stops and track the time and distance. This recommended route is about 16 miles and took me 51 minutes with brief stops. You will notice I started at Stage Fort Park and ended at the rotary. Now I know and will share this valuable knowledge with this season’s visitors!

Stops included many that are recognizable: Man at the Wheel statue, Good Harbor Beach, Rockport Motif, Halibut Point State Park,  Ipswich Bay and Plum Cove Beach. There are many others, of course, but I was just focusing on the scenic ones most easily accessible by visitors. It’s a great ride to take even on a slightly hazy, foggy day in late winter.

SUPER STUNNING SUPER MOON! #GLOUCESTERMA -SCHOONER ADVENTURE, GOOD HARBOR BEACH, GLOUCESTER HARBOR, BACKSHORE

Called the Worm Moon because the ground begins to soften and earthworms reappear, inviting Robins to our gardens. Among many names, March’s Full Moon is also called the Sleepy Moon, Sap Moon, Crust Moon, Lenten Moon, and Crow Moon.

A sign of spring, The Annisquam Exchange opening day

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

Friday May 15, 2020
32 Leonard Street
Gloucester, MA 01930

The Exchange has served the community for over 68 years by donating its profits for the maintenance of the historic buildings of the village: Village Hall, Village Church, Leonard School, Library and Firehouse. The Exchange also supports the Good Neighbors Program and the village’s Mt. Adnah Cemetery. Annisquam is one of the oldest and best-preserved villages in Gloucester. The Annisquam Exchange was established to insure that the history, architecture, art and community of Annisquam will be preserved for future generations. The Exchange began in the old Firehouse, which is now a museum preserving Annisquam’s 384 (1630) year-old history; the Exchange moved to its present location in the equally historic Leonard School in the mid 1940’s.

Oliver’s

Posted on by Nichole S.

Several of us enjoyed a delicious dinner at the new Oliver’s on Main Street in Gloucester the other night.  We shared several salads and appetizers before ordering lots of sushi and a few entrees to also share…. and then some espresso martinis and desserts.  Everything was delicious and I’ll happily go back again. Give it a try!

Off the Wall Bookstore Now Open

Posted on by Pat D

Second Glace opened its bookstore, Off the Wall, within its own walls on Pond Street a few days ago so I stopped by to take a look. I found a warm, inviting space FULL of books, music and movies available at very reasonable prices. Adult books sell for 75 cents, childrens books 50 cents; CDs and DVDs are $1 (though DVD seasons are a little higher).

I saw many current titles available and the staff (thanks Laurel and Susan) is friendly. The sales support the Open Door; it’s definitely a win-win. Stop in and shop a bit.
