My View of Life on the Dock
On our way back to Gloucester recently, we spotted these 3 eagles in a tree along the River. I imagine them to be a family. A short distance up the river, there was a 4th resting eagle! It filled my heart to see these majestic birds. I thought to myself that perhaps this is a scene our forefathers might have seen in just about the same setting back around the time of the first Thanksgiving. Enjoy your weekend with family and friends.
This upcoming Friday through Sunday we will be offering 20% off of all of our skin care and bath products.
We are also still offering samples of lotions and pain creams. If you know anyone with chronic pain, or skin conditions, please send them our way!
There’s still time to make a family’s Thanksgiving!
Gobble, gobble! More than 350 volunteers came together at The Open Door this weekend to assemble and distribute Holiday Baskets and join food drives throughout Cape Ann and beyond to help feed local families and people that need a little help over Thanksgiving.
Mountains of orange and green bags filled with potatoes, carrots, stuffing, squash, apples, cranberry sauce, muffin mix, gravy, and, of course, plump turkeys, ensured local families have ALL the fixings to prepare a hearty Thanksgiving meal with their own traditions in their own homes.
Big shout-out to the entire community for the Thanksgiving food drives held Saturday, Nov 23 at five local grocery store locations that collected 24,320 pounds of food for The Open Door that will help stock neighbors’ shelves over the next few months.
Distribution of Thanksgiving Baskets continues through Wednesday, Nov 27 at The Open Door…
