My View of Life on the Dock
A Coat Guard oarsman took an oar to the chest midway through the military seine boat race today at Pavilion Beach. It looked to happen at the turn. The Coast Guard (Nina) was racing alongside the Gloucester Fire Department (Pinta); the accident appeared to slow the firemen. The oarsman was rushed to shore by the Coast Guard rescue boat. At this time, no additional information available. We hope a speedy recovery for the oarsman.


Gloucester is a composite of neighborhoods; Fiesta afar is sometimes hard to spot.
Hi Joey-
Gloucester residents Sara Wester and Randy Jones have designed a new Gloucester tee—we’re calling it the Gloucester Cod, and if you’ve just gotta have the latest in local fashion, well good luck with that. But if you want the tee, they are for sale down at Walt Kolenda’s new place on Main street—Cape Ann Auction, formerly the site of Fred Bodin’s studio. We’ve got a pretty good selection of men’s and women’s and are still working with what colors and sizes look good, but if you don’t see what you’re looking for, shoot Sara an email at sarawester2002@gmail.com and we’ll get you on the next run of shirts.
Thanks.

One of the nice things about being in Gloucester is all the fresh seafood. Grabbed some Lobsters from Joey C at Captain Joes and then headed over to Compass to see PJ for a nice 210# Blue Fin Tuna. All for the menu tonight.
It was a great big and diverse field of about 1000 runners. A big fun time.
Congrats Michael Sanfilippo on a great walk!





Bravo for all

Hey JC!
Put together a little survey for an idea that’s been banging around for a while regarding Co-working. For those who are unfamiliar, these are spaces where people who typically work from home can go for a few hours or the day and have desk-space, wifi, printing and that sort of thing without running out that one cup of coffee they bought at the Cafe three hours ago (but people better keep going to cafes, dammit!).
Also good for meeting, conference calls, presentations, night classes, b​ook clubs, that sort of thing.
There are a lot of ways to execute this idea, there is no space chosen yet or anything, we’re just getting the community together first, to gauge if there is enough support.
So we’d love to get a little feedback through this five minute survey. If you’d post it, this would continue the awesome. As always, you rule, etc. –Jim Dowd
