7PM tonight | Dogtown National Heritage project kicks off at Gloucester city hall
Reminder- Dogtown could be eligible for the National Register. A team of archaeologists began surveying and reviewing Dogtown the week of November 13. Come to a special public presentation TONIGHT – November 29th in Kyrouz Auditorium, Gloucester City Hall, 9 Dale Avenue, at 7pm.
Oct 28 GMG post announcing tonight’s public meeting: Before Dogtown was Dogtown: archaeological survey project to be presented at City Hall November 29! Maybe hello blueberries bye bye lyme disease
“Presenters at City Hall on Nov 29th will include Betsy Friedberg from the Massachusetts Historical Commission, who will explain how the National Register program works and what it does and does not do, and Kristen Heitert from the PAL, who will present an initial plan for defining the boundaries of Dogtown as a National Register District. People attending the meeting will be asked to respond to that plan and to express their views about what makes Dogtown special. What should be the boundaries of the proposed National Register District, and what cultural features should be included in it? What would be the benefits of National Register status, and are there any drawbacks?”

Sculpture Garden at Pingree School
We spend a lot of time on the campus of the Pingree School in Hamilton because the boys both play a lot of hockey there. I love when the timing allows for a stroll around the grounds before sitting in the frigid rink.
Take a look at their impressive art installations.

Crane Beach Buck
I went to Crane Beach looking for snowy owls but found this guy instead. I should say he found me along one of the trails at the beach. I took the trail which was longer and more deserted than I was expecting. It was just me and the rustling leaves and I started to get a little nervous. I was thinking I really should have told someone where I would be and felt a little like I was being watched. Isn’t he magnificent? This pose reminds me of the Big Daddy Deer in Bambi overlooking his forest and herd.
I wasn’t totally surprised as I had seen hoof prints along the way. I also saw a doe but she deftly avoided my trigger happy finger on the camera. No owls, but the buck paid off.

Seeking Actors/ Sarah Clark’s “Voices of Rockport: A Memory Play of Rockport People and Places “
Hi, Joey,
Could you list the copy and/or poster?
The staged reading of Sarah Clark’s “Voices of Rockport: A Memory Play of Rockport People and Places “ is not just a play about Rockport because it seems Rockport was full of Gloucester people helping it to prosper: Phil Perry at the high school, Bob Kline and Ross Burton on Main Street and many more. Playing this Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 and Sunday at 2 at Rockport Community House on Broadway. Gloucester’s Rick Doucette, Eileen Fitzgerald, and Karl Pulkkinen join Rockport’s Kiersten Hazzard, Randy Dupps and Sarah Clark to make this a real Cape Ann venture. A donation of $10 at the door will be gratefully received and all profits given to Rockport’s First Night.

THANKS TO A CANADIAN CHEMICAL ENGINEER, A VERMONT ACADEMIC AGRONOMIST, RISK-TAKING FARMERS, AND VISIONARY CLOTHING COMPANY FOR A FABULOUS NEW USE FOR MILKWEED
What’s old is new again!
Common Milkweed (Ascleipias syriaca) is the essential food plant for populations of the Northeastern and Atlantic coast Monarchs. During Colonial times, the silky floss found in the dried seed heads was used to stuff quilts and pillows. In the 1860s, in Salem Massachusetts, Common Milkweed silk was used as a mattress filling.
During WWII, Common Milkweed became the substitute for kapok, a soft cottony material from the kapok tree that was the preferred filling for life vests. Japan cut off the supply of kapok from Java, the main source of the material, and part of the wartime effort included children sent to fields to gather millions of pounds of Milkweed seed heads for the armed services.
“What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not been discovered.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
An innovative Canadian clothing manufacturer, the Quartz Company and Altitude Sports, has created the first modern insulated jacket using milkweed silk. Hundreds of acres of Common Milkweed have been planted in Vermont and Quebec. Particularly noteworthy is that the fields of Milkweed are not harvested until after the Monarchs have left.
