My View of Life on the Dock
@ OnlyInBos reports “The United States government is phasing out the penny, whose use has spanned more than two centuries.
The Treasury Department will stop putting new pennies into circulation by early next year.
Businesses will need to start rounding up or down to the nearest 5 cents”
Rick and I decided to get some solar lights for the back yard. We like our they look. No electricity needed, just the sun.

We have moved to mid-coast Maine. Here is a reprise of my personal favorite of the 1,714 “Moments” that I’ve posted since September 2020. The unique light and rugged landscape of Cape Ann are magical, and it has been great fun to capture and share these images daily. Thank you, Joey, for giving me this opportunity. (Would an occasional “Maine Moments” be okay?)
We’ll be open Saturday & Sunday 8:00 am – 11:00 am or sellout at 1 Whistlestop Mall in Rockport.

Host Families Needed for Gloucester/Tamano Homestay Program
Let’s Show Our Sister City a Gloucester Hospitality!
We are super excited to announce that students from our sister city, Tamano City, Japan, will be visiting us this summer! To make their stay unforgettable, we need some awesome host families. This is a fantastic opportunity for fun and cultural exchange, and we would love for you to be a part of it!
Host Family Opportunity:
Students: 3 females and 2 males ages 15 to 17.
Chaperone: 1 female adult
From: Tamano City, Japan – Gloucester’s sister city
Dates: Arriving Wednesday, July 23 in the evening; Departing Sunday morning, August 3
Why Host?
Cultural Exchange: Enjoy a meaningful cultural exchange that enriches your family’s experience and broadens your global perspective.
Minimal Commitment: Students will be busy with English lessons and excursions during weekdays, so your primary responsibilities will be providing breakfast, dinner (during the week), and sharing all meals during the weekends with your family.
Self-Sufficient Students: Students bring their own spending money and manage their own lunch at local restaurants during the week.
Your Role as a Host:
Provide a welcoming and supportive environment.
Provide breakfast and dinner during the week and all meals on the weekends.
Share your local customs and family life.
Enjoy the company of your international guest during the evenings and weekends.
Join the Gloucester Host Family Community!
Be a part of an unforgettable experience that has brought joy and global connections to our community for years. Hosting these students is a wonderful opportunity to showcase Gloucester’s warmth and hospitality.
If you have any questions or would like to become a host family, please feel free to contact Jason & Shannon Hakes. <jhakes1978@gmail.com>
We are happy to provide more information and answer any questions you may have.
Let’s make this exchange program a success together and show our friends from Japan how welcoming Gloucester can be!
Thank you for your support
You and me go fishin’ in the dark. No surprise that my son was down on the docks looking for striper late last night.

We are not the only ones anxiously awaiting summer weather and fun….the schooners are as well. I had the pleasure of catching the Ernestina-Morrissey at the Maritime Gloucester dock last week. (**Thanks for the heads up Carol**) She’s a sight for sore eyes.
It’s dirty from rolling around in the back of my truck each night but still 💯 intact. I bought a cheap Chinese made flag off Amazon for our boat last year and at the end of the season it was completely tattered

Went to the beach late Wednesday afternoon and saw a familiar sight. The moorings are going back in at Magnolia Harbor. Love the dog on the boat.

Salted Cod Gallery is pleased to present Coco Berkman’s striking linoleum prints on view as guest artist throughout the month of June. A celebrated printmaker with a distinct voice and a deep commitment to process, Berkman brings a rich collection of works that transform everyday struggles into profound visual statements. Each piece begins as a much-revised drawing—drawn, redrawn, torn, taped, and refined until it feels true. That drawing is then transferred to a linoleum block, carved with fine tools, and finished with layers of ink and color.
Salted Cod Gallery invites the public to experience Coco Berkman’s work throughout June, each one the culmination of careful, intuitive labor.
Salted Cod Art House features Rocky Neck Art Colony juried members. Be sure to stop by, as each day, one of the 24 artists are there to meet and greet.
June Guest Artist: Coco Berkman
Dates: June 1 – June 30
Location: Salted Cod Gallery, Gloucester, MA
53 Rocky Neck Avenue • Gloucester, MA 01930
Open Wed-Fri, 3pm-10pm; Sat & Sun, 11:30am-10pm
