Fiesta Photo Dump – Sunday

Here’s my final batch of pics from Sunday’s parade and races for you to enjoy and share.   Until next year!  VIVA San Pietro!! (See galleries below)

PARADE

GREASY POLE

GMG Contributor Nichole S on the front lines!

Looking through my lens on my comfy, lazy spot on the beach…Nichole was in the thick of it, on the front lines of the greasy pole getting those great views!

Good Morning, Dear

Or…in this case…Good Morning, Deer!

My friend and I were out for an early morning walk/run and encountered this little deer crossing the quiet street down on Eastern Point.  It seemed completely unfazed by us and actually followed us for a few steps as we began to walk away.  Nice way to start a day for sure!

Photo credit to my friend, Diane Linn for snapping and sharing this photo since I didn’t have my phone.

GHS Class of ’74 kick back & enjoy Gloucester Harbor Shuttle charter

SONY DSC

“A lot of my classmates from GHS Class of ’74 chartered the Harbor Shuttle for a 2HR cruise around the harbor.  Our evening couldn’t have been more perfect. Old and dear classmates and some friends shared great conversation, an amazing night and a beautiful tour of the harbor where we all grew up. We all  brought our own refreshments and let Steve do the driving . If you are looking to find a memorable way to enjoy the scenic view of the city and want a great evening with friends you should consider chartering Cape Ann Harbor Cruise.”  – Pauline Bresnahan

Does Anyone Have Cut Up Firewood For A Wood Stove That They Want To Get Rid Of?

image

I plan to burn in my wood stove this winter and sometimes people have given up on lugging firewood into their house and would like to get rid of it.

If you have some that isn’t rotten and you want out of the yard, please leave a comment on this thread on how to contact you and I’ll come take it away in my pickup truck.  Please no full on trees or huge stumps.  I don’t have the ability to process it.

I’d appreciate it, thanks.  You can also email me at goodmorninggloucester@yahoo.com

Thanks again, Joey
