After working, my main concern is taking a swim and relaxing at the beach. Magnolia Harbor with the pier makes such a pretty view.

Good News about Gloucester In Yankee Magazine
Hey Joey,
Gloucester is once again in the spotlight in Yankee Magazine. In the July/August issue, there is an article about a friendly rivalry between two co-workers as to whether going to a lake or the beach in NE is best.The one friend decides to take the other for a day at the beach, & where do they go? Good Harbor, of course!The article is titled ‘Wading In’ – & has pictures of Good Harbor & a description of all that’s’ ‘good’ about it.

Fun reading & another shout-out to Gloucester.
