See Brooks Williams with opener Prateek at Old Sloop Coffeehouse this Friday, November 1. Brooks Williams hails from Statesboro, Georgia, the town made famous by country-blues legend Blind Willie McTell. Ranked in the Top 100 Acoustic Guitarists, he’s a mean finger-picker and a stunning slide guitarist. Plus, “he has a beautiful voice,” says AmericanaUK, “that you just melt into.” Not one easy to pigeon-hole, Brooks’ music is the love-child of country-blues and Americana. fRoots says, “Soulful Americana, full-on blues and tasty rootsy grooves. He really rocks!” Opener Prateek has been a Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Finalist and has been nominated for Singer-Songwriter of the Year at both the New England Music Awards and the Boston Music Awards.

The next phase of coastal storm repairs continue on Long Beach. This past week crews began adding sand, “beach nourishment”, atop the rip rap. The staging is on the Gloucester end while the first deposits are far off by the pedestrian bridge to Cape Hedge. The ocean hits the seawall a couple of hours before high tide so the work moves at a fast clip.
I overheard someone ask, “Why not wait till spring?” Sand moves and winter storms shift the terrain mightily. They explained that it’s intentional and this sand will come back.
Seems a sisyphean task at two hours before high tide. (below about half hour before)
We stopped by Essex ClamFest on Saturday after a hockey game at Pingree School in Hamilton. We missed the chowder competition, but the boys enjoyed lunch from Ipswich Clambake and an ice cream from Down River while we enjoyed two beers from Ipswich Ale. It was a beautiful afternoon and I’m glad they got so lucky with the weather!
Hello! My name is Brewster. I am a lucky guy who was found all the way in Puerto Rico and rescued with several other lucky kitties and moved up this way thanks to Wags 2 Riches Rescue. I am now looking for my shot at finding a forever home! I would do best in a home with another friendly confident cat, I enjoy the company of another feline companion and hopefully they will help to teach me the ropes of what life is like indoor living. I much prefer the quiet side to take things at my own pace, I would do great in a low traffic home with older children that can respect my space. I love tasty treats especially tuna & playing the day away chasing wand toys.If you are looking for a laid back guy stop by and meet me today!

You know, it’s funny how there are people that ask you a ton of times for help with publicity and you help them out with a smile. Then you have your own event…
And you see who your friends are. You see the people that get that it’s a two way street. And you make sure you take care of those people in the future.
Thanks to my good friends. ❤️

Even though it was very cloudy on Friday, the sun did peek out during sunset.
More rather scary. Saw this car decor in the parking lot outside AMC movies. Wonder what movie they were seeing 🙂
Caption this holiday spirit…
Late Saturday afternoon we watched two powered paragliders overhead and circling the Eastern Point lighthouse.
Hope to see you, I will be the one in a blue dress and blond wig.
Good Morning Gloucester
