My View of Life on the Dock
Charles and George King share the following,
Joann Mackenzie from the Gloucester Daily Times wrote an excellent article on the upcoming installation of the Civil War coat at GHS!
Reader Robert Millman sent photos and wrote the following question:
I am new to Gloucester, having bought a home two years ago.
As we were clearing some down trees and brush, we came upon a small stand on what I think are Monotropa, related to Indian Pipes, but do not look like any other pictures I have found. Corliss and another local nursery were not able to provide anything further information.
Can you ask your readers or do you have any suggestions of who I could reach out to?
Thank you
Hello Robert,

When the bridge goes up, just breath and take a look at the view.
Thursday at the Rhumb Line: Portsmouth Blues Avatar Mr. Jon Ross blows into town for a summit with his old buddy Dave Sag. He’s been here many times before but always under the radar. Do not be swayed by clever imitations; Jon is the real deal! Backing him up will be my old friend and self-medication expert: Mr. Paul Foss. Traveling down all the way from Bangor Maine, this keyboard whiz will have you unzipping your L.L.Bean mukluks and shakin’ your tootsies! Drums provided by former Mohawk and balanced pistons: Mr. Chris Anzelone. Don’t miss it!

Come support the Beeman School 5th Grade Class of 2019 by shopping at their Spring Plant Sale!
A bunch of these are Rockport seniors celebrating the end of the school year while driving through town and getting stuck when the cut bridge opened. The first photo is not a group of Rockport seniors….they are just Gloucester seniors….and not high school.
Couple more views from Annisquam the other night. It was a peaceful night except for the attack of gnats so if you go for sunset, bring your bug spray…last year I dubbed this spot Anni-squash-a-gnat!
With warmer weather comes all sorts of fun springtime activities.

Exciting news! The Boston Cannons Major League Lacrosse is coming to Endicott College this weekend and again on Saturday, June 23rd as part of their newly launched “Cannons in Your Community” effort.
The Boston Cannons of Major League Lacrosse (MLL) announced that the club has created a new initiative to bring select regular season home games to two greater Boston communities in 2018. The Cannons will play one game at Hingham High School in Hingham, MA, and two games at Endicott College in Beverly, MA. The “Cannons In Your Community” effort is focused on strengthening the team’s community outreach and increasing direct engagement with greater Boston area lacrosse fans.
“We’re extremely excited to bring Cannons lacrosse to the communities of the South Shore and North Shore, both are very passionate about the sport,” said Cannons President Ian Frenette. “While our game continues to grow at a significant pace, we need to continue to do our part to drive the continued growth and engagement with current and prospective lacrosse fans in their towns. This initiative is going to give fans an even closer look at Cannons action in an intimate environment and provide us the opportunity to reach new fans by bringing the game to their neighborhood.”
