My afternoon workspace on Friday was glorious as usual. Another beautiful beach day. A surprise visit from a schooner went sailing by. It looked like the Denis K. Sullivan but not sure.

Late Summer Hummers
Hummingbirds are typically very active in the later part of summer and they’ve been showing up in our backyard in full numbers. I find the females (known by their white neck–no red) to be curious and less skittish than their male counterparts so it gives me some extra time for observation. It’s unusual for me to see two together sitting relatively still long enough for a photo such as you see here. They’ll be around a while longer so enjoy them while you can.

Flowers
The colors on the Stacy Boulevard are beautiful. The bees are pollinating and walkers are enjoying the flowers. The smell is wonderful as well. Thank you, Generous Gardeners.

Sunset Cruise Aboard Thomas E. Lannon
We took a sunset cruise with Captain Heath Ellis and crew a few nights ago aboard the Thomas E. Lannon. What a perfect evening to be out on our stunning harbor! The winds moved us along at a leisurely pace as the nearly-full moon rose over the horizon. Here’s your reminder that Schooner Festival is coming up Sept 3-6. I encourage you to take a schooner sail aboard any vessel you choose, but pay special attention to our local schooners including Ardelle, Isabella, Adventure and Lannon. Support local and have a lovely experience to boot!
For additional photos and story details, check out Pat D’s Photos and Adventures on Facebook. Give it a follow if you like what you see.

Not all Gloucester Waterfront Legends Are Fishermen. Here’s EDG- “Every Day Guy” Also AI research on the make and model year of his Vintage Grady White
This boat is a vintage 1973 Grady-White Atlantic Weekender 19′ lapstrake cuddy cabin cruiser.
Key Characteristics:
- Make/Manufacturer: Grady-White Boats
- Model: Atlantic Weekender 19′
- Era/Year: Circa 1973
- Distinctive Features: The boat features a classic tan-accented fiberglass hull with lapstrake-style strakes, characteristic trapezoidal cabin windows with a light-green privacy curtain, a raised wraparound windshield, and a prominent bow rail.
If you are trying to find historical documents, parts, or communities for this specific model, let me know if you would like me to look up:
- Original specifications or brochures from Grady-White’s early 1970s lineup.
- Dedicated owners’ clubs or restoration forums for vintage Grady-White models
