Good Morning Gloucester

It’s a great place to stay for families.

We’re less than a mile walk to GHB and we have a private pool. The apartment comes fully stocked with beach chairs, towels, umbrella, cooler, sand toys and boogie boards. And guests get a wagon to tote everything back and forth!

And there is an elementary playground less than 50 yards away! (We abut East Gloucester Elementary School.

And well, you know the view and the property and the owners 🙂

We’re sold out this summer. Week rentals only from late June to Labor Day Weekend.

Okay, gotta go mow the lawn.

Hello, Joey – thought you might like these 2 pics taken from The Atlantis Inn this weekend. Really shows the difference in the weather from Saturday to Sunday. Hope you are having a nice Memorial Day weekend.

Thanks!

Hi Joey,

Saw this floating by out the window today . Summer is finally here!

For the time being, Thursday through Sunday, noon to 6:00 or when the open flag is out, or my door is open. Come by and see the Revelation Series paintings. As everyone who has seen them says: “They are amazing and profound.” Also, the new book “Revelation of Unspeakable Love” is here, for anyone interested in learning more about the Bible, without having to wade through the whole book (although everyone should). Come by and see and visit.

Since it doesn’t look like we will have much of a beach weekend, I share with you a different perspective of our beautiful GHB!

Please keep in mind this post comes from a humble mother, whose son had a trip to the ER for stitches doing something similar…on a MUCH smaller scale….when he was with me. So, this post isn’t a holier-than-thou-for-pete’s-sake-watch-your-kids-I-don’t-make-any-mistakes kind of post.

So…if you EVER see one of my kids screaming full throttle…smack down the middle of South Street in Rockport at 7:35 (meaning DUSK) on a scooter…with no helmet… like the young man that I had to swerve to miss last night…. please, please do your best to make him stop.

This particular young man…and I have no idea who he was…scared the day lights out of me, but also could have been really, really hurt.  I’m not even necessarily meaning hurt by a vehicle, but hurt by something as simple as a pebble or a crack in the pavement that could have sent him flying through the air.

Oddly enough, I just had to have a reminder with my older son after watching a Go Pro video that he shot while biking around our neighborhood. I could tell by the video that he wasn’t looking over his shoulder to survey for cars behind him before crossing to the other side of the street.  I’m so glad that I was able to show him the video to reinforce the lesson.  Likewise, watching that boy last night gave me the opportunity to tell them what not to do, but I know they won’t always listen.

Sigh.  Be careful kids.  Please.

11^th Staged Readings:  10-Minute Plays at Rocky Neck Cultural Center

Six ten minute plays written by participants in M. Lynda Robinson’s workshop at the Gloucester Writers Center will be presented at the Rocky Neck Cultural Center on Sunday, June 12, at 6pm with a reception to follow.  The playwrights are:  Shep Abbott, Jeana Grady, Ann McArdle, David McCaleb, Flinda Nix, M. Lynda Robinson, and Stan Spencer.

The GWC welcomes this opportunity to bring together writers and audience as a community event.  The writers and professional local actors will present a lively show and are looking forward to response and feedback from the audience as part of developing their works from page to stage.  Providing a space in the community for voices to be heard through writing, dialogue, and the artistic process is a big part of the GWC’s mission.  Suggested donation for the event is $10, $5 for students, and no one turned away for lack of funds.  Find out more about the Gloucester Writers Center at www.gloucesterwriters.org
