Thanks to all the peeps who came out to clean up Burnham’s Field on Saturday – and to everyone who picks up litter around our city every day. Thanks to Rose with the DPW for arranging the yellow trash big pick-up, City Councilor Melissa Cox (below, left) and Councilor Paul Lundberg, who ducked out before we could take his photo.
Neighbor John Mahoney was picking up litter like a boss.

MIMOSA’S
View original post 108 more words
Every once in a while a bird will fly into the lobster traps that we have stacked in the yard…..and inevitably, like a lobster, get caught. Finn has taken it upon himself to check the traps each time we come home to make sure that hasn’t happened.
As soon as we pulled into the driveway yesterday I heard “uh oh” from the back seat. Finn threw his backpack, lunchbox, and jacket on the lawn (wet and muddy as it was) and sprang into action.
His smile at the end kills me. He’s a salty kid. He takes the lobster gear seriously and he’s always so happy to help a little friend in need.
I had a great experience at Passports for lunch recently- the mimosa was especially refreshing. I’m told that was due to the orange juice, so I made sure I got plenty of vitamin C with the pastrami sandwich.
All three Piping Plovers were last seen early Saturday morning.
We were only been able to locate one by day’s end on Saturday, only one all day Sunday, and none today, Monday. I scoured the beach and creek this morning at daybreak, and friends were again there this afternoon searching. If anyone has seen or knows differently, please, please email us at kimsmithdesigns@hotmail.com. Thank you.
Papa Plover spent a good part of Sunday morning fruitlessly piping plaintive calls for Mama.
Sunday afternoon, ACOfficer Teagan and I found Papa all alone at the No. 1 nesting area, standing on one leg and tucked up by the dune.
I found this beautiful feather Sunday morning near some Piping Plover tracks and think it is a PiPl feather. The feather measures just shy of 6cm. A reader wrote to say she thinks it’s a Common Loon feather. I’ve never seen a Common Loon at Good Harbor Beach but they are all around and it could have washed ashore.
A couple of hours before sunset the sun was shining on the Hiram Walker House.

“Presented every two years, the Commonwealth Awards shine a spotlight on the extraordinary contributions the arts, humanities, and sciences make to education, economic growth and vitality, and quality of life in communities across Massachusetts. The Commonwealth Awards ceremony also presents an opportunity for the Massachusetts nonprofit cultural sector to gather, assert its value, and make the case for public investment in its work.
Past winners include leading artists, writers, and scholars such as Olympia Dukakis and David McCullough; world-renowned institutions like Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival and the Peabody Essex Museum; and social innovators like the Cambridge Science Festival and the Barr Foundation.”
The city of Gloucester received a Commonwealth Award in 2015.
Berkshire Eagle just received the JFK Commonwealth Award. Berkshire Eagle 2019 arts coverage included the outstanding work by Larry Parnass on the Berkshire Museum deaccession story. Well done!
Stay tuned for the MCC announcement of the winner of the 13 finalists.
These photos are mostly installation views BEFORE the lovely reception for Once Upon a Contest at the Manchester Historical Museum. The show continues through April 26th. There was quite a turn out on that gorgeous sunny Saturday so I fell off duty taking photographs during the party. The Editor of the Manchester Cricket was on site; I will add a link to any story/photos. Please visit the beautiful exhibition, read the books explore the museum and library, and discover Leslie Galacar’s temporary public art installation created just for this site.

Strawberry shortcake makes me think “summer”. Deliciously made at Charlie’s with warm (!) biscuits and a mound of whipped cream. A couple of passers-by said “Boy, that looks good!” I am glad I asked for the whipped cream. Thanks, Charlie’s!
