Love to go and visit the horses and on Sunday Larkim came over to whisper to me. The size of this horse amazes me. We are both on the same even ground. Thanks for the photo Rick.

Passports‘ Community Dinner this month will support Period Partners, a local charitable initiative raising money to provide menstrual products to local shelters and The Open Door. Access to menstrual products is a basic survival need, but for many people in America, this need goes unmet. Period Partners seeks to address this need on Cape Ann in collaboration with Women’s Equality Cape Ann (WECANN!) and The Open Door. As usual, Passports will donate 10% of all meals sold between 4:30 and closing to this month’s organization.
If you’ve been thinking about a night out, why not consider Passports this TUESDAY! The food is great, it’s a worthy cause, and it promises to be a fun night! Reservations recommended.

Charles and George King write,
“Ok, guys, no point in holding back…we all did it and we’re all done! Right on the heels of the awesome Awesome Gloucester Grant, the Massachusetts State Historical Records Advisory Board (SHRAB)awarded the coat a $6620 grant which officially closes the fundraising for the preservation. Check out the memo from the Office of Mayor Romeo Theken “Gloucester Civil War Coat Preservation Plan Wins Statewide Recognition, Grant Money” by Chris Sicuranza. Thanks to everyone who supported the coat! Bye for now coat peeps and we’ll write again soon about the case. Go Pats! #driveforfive”

Super Bowl Sunday and I cannot get down to Woods Hole to visit my parent’s graves to tell them about Brady’s shot at getting ring number five (they were wicked Pats fans) so I am adopting someone no longer with us who is a local.

Hannah Jumper would have been 220 years old when the Patriots won their first Super Bowl. Everyone thinks of Hannah as a party pooper but I am willing to bet she would have cheered Vinatieri’s field goal to squish the Rams waving her hatchet around. I’m sure she would be wearing jersey Number 12 today and having a brew because time marches on, the Red Sox and the Patriots are World Champions several times over and Feather & Wedge Tavern is having a Super Bowl Party in Rockport.
Still can’t get used to it. The championships. A beer in a Rockport Tavern. What is the world coming to? 🙂

Check out the museums’ twitter accounts @mfaboston vs @HighMuseumofArt. For more fine art and football see
The National Football League Player’s Association (NFLPA) held the 12th annual ‘Smocks and Jocks’ Fine Art Auction and Jazz Brunch featuring art created by active and former NFL players (and others). The benefit raises money for the Gene Upshaw Player Assistance Fund.

“Our players are so many different things…The original thought was to create an opportunity for former players to come to the Super Bowl in a more relaxed atmosphere and to show a different side of the professional athlete by them being able to display their art.”

Flashback: visiting Clark Museum to see Bierstadt’s Puget Sound on loan from the Seattle Art Museum thanks to the Patriots Super Bowl XLIX win. (If Seattle Seahawks won, Homer’s West Point Prout’s Neck in the Clark would have gone west.)

The GHS girls played a tough back and forth game only to loose in last few seconds to Saugus.
Everyone is prepping for the big game tonight and here my husband has some baked beans in the Dutch oven and smoking on the Traeger for 5-6 hrs…they smell amazing already! Later we will be throwing some drumsticks, wings and buffalo turds on there. Go PATS!
