Lots of Truck Touching Happened Yesterday
The boys weren’t going to let Saturday go by without touching some trucks so we squeezed in a trip to Touch-a-Truck in between a T-ball game and a baseball game. I was happy to oblige mostly because the money went to the Fishtown Horribles Parade.
Kudos to the the police officers, fire fighters, Coast Guard, volunteers, YMCA kids, etc. Everyone was incredibly friendly and eager to help make the kids smile. A special shout-out to the Gloucester Police Officers who humored my boys for a what probably felt like forever before other kids showed up for a turn. You made their day.

The power of community! What a memorable gala for ACTION, INC’s 50th milestone!
Cat Ryan submits-
This anniversary inspired a very special evening for the 2015 Annual Meeting: a tribute to all of Action’s staff for so many years of dedication, engagement and –well 50 years says it all- sustainable programming!
Last night, the curtains were drawn at Shalin Liu Performance center, the massive screen dropped and we were treated to this short, great tribute video. Look closely at the old photos and history of Action, Inc. Write into the comments below if you can name the four people involved with Action in 1965. We’ll see if you’re right.
Kudos to the movie crew:
Jessica Benedetto, Action’s Director of Marketing & Planning
Megan Merlin, Action’s Project Coordinator
Grieg Cranna, Photographer
Adam Kooken, Videographer, Montserrat
Jessica and Megan organized the event. Willow Rest rocked the food. Speaking of rock, we were treated to the happiest musicians ever. Perfect sound and coolest set from Dan King and friends, with Erika Van Pelt adding powerful vocals.
Executive Director, Tim Riley, is retiring this year. He received the Lyndon Baines Johnson War on Poverty Award and promptly shared the award right back with everyone else.
Day 2 Filming the Duckling Family
The Mallard Duck family that I have been filming during the early morning hours this past week is allowing me to get very close, venturing to within two feet from where I am tucked in amongst the reeds by the water’s edge. The ducklings mirror the parent’s every action and they are are especially adorable learning how to oil their feathers. Although the female attempts to stay close, and the male is always hovering nearby, one is becoming increasingly independent, a little too independent if you ask me. I can’t get over the ducklings vulnerability–its a miracle any survive to adulthood.
The mixed flock of ducks is comprised mostly of Mallards, with several pairs of American Black Ducks mixed in. A single pair of Blue-winged Teals was spotted for several days.

What kind of psychopath holds a bat in their hands?
I ever get a bat in my house, here’s what I’d do…
I’d go to the hardware store and buy a couple sheets of industrial strength plywood and cordon off the room in which the bat was last seen never to set foot in that room again. Just totally write off the use of that room forever and ever and a day.

Holding a bat in her hand. That’s just plum crazy.

New Shade Tree At Cripple Cove Pleases Bob Driscoll :)
Hey Joey Going passed The Ben Smith Playground at Cripple Cove, I noticed a new shade tree has been planted. Most awesome thing for the residents of Gloucester to be doing. The quality of life always improves where trees are nurtured. Thought I would share the tree with you and your viewers. Keep up the good work Gloucester, Bob Driscoll
