“Tenderness” – the perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day
OK, it’s gonna snow on Valentine’s day — maybe another foot or more. You could amp up the #Snanger OR you could chill by the fire and take your sweetie pie to see Booker T. Jones next Saturday (2/21) down the road at Beverly’s Larcom Theatre.
What could be more romantic than a concert with the greatest Hammond B3 groove-master of all time (and a Grammy-winner and Rock n Roll Hall of Famer) in a gorgeous fully-restored, historic theatre, built in 1912 (same year as Fenway Park) with perfect sound?
Well, here’s what’s even more romantic than that … local rising stars Sarah Seminski & Eric Reardon are opening the show. Here’s a video of them performing “Try A Little Tenderness” at the Larcom back in November. Now, Otis Redding recorded with Stax Records at the same time as Booker T. & the M.G.’s, who backed Otis on his version of this song. Romance will just envelope the whole place next Saturday. Get tickets here.

I Love Me Some Matt Lauer, But….
One of my boys’ favorite things to tell people (even strangers) is that I love snow days because I get to have coffee in bed with Matt Lauer.
Truly, I can’t deny it. On the off weekday that I don’t need to be at work at 7:45 in the morning, you can bet I’m hoping for a lazy morning in bed watching Matt and his cohorts do their thing….and, yes, with coffee.
So, while I love me some Matt, the fact that you “can’t unsee this” is unsettling even for me. 50 Shades of Yikes. What a trooper and a good sport though, right!?

Mary Baker Eddy Library
Yesterday I included The Mary Baker Eddy Library in my “Picks of the Week.”
They were kind enough to reach out to us and provide information about their programs, but also about the youth organization that they are collaborating with. With a mission of, “Inspiring kids to give of themselves for the good of the world” Aaron’s Presents is making wonderful things happen. Please take a minute to read about the children involved and the projects that they have created. Please find the links below. The first link will take you to the same February Vacation Programs page that I included yesterday. The 2nd link will take you to Aaron’s Presents.
Hello Good Morning Gloucester Team,
I am writing on behalf of the Programs Team at the Mary Baker Eddy Library, Boston. We are all excited that the Library is listed in Nichole’s Picks of the Weeks for February School Vacation! I wanted to reach out and offer direct links to our program information so that your readers could explore our FSVW programming in greater detail. This year the Library’s Program is a collaboration with the Youth Organization Aaron’s Presents. It might be good to note as well that we strongly suggest online registration for some segments of our program (the How You Can Make a Difference session, and the Make Your Own New Story session.) Arts and Crafts and Mapparium segments do not require registration. Mon-Thurs sessions are already at full capacity, but Friday’s sessions still do have space.
Absolute Best,
Marie

I’ve gone from “We’re all in this together” To #Snangry @ericfisher
The first couple rounds of ridiculous snow I was all like-
“Yeah, we’re all in this together, there’s no sense in complaining because everybody’s dealing with it”
And now I’m just plain #Snangry.
First hearing the term used on Twitter by CBS meteorologist Eric Fisher a couple of days ago, but now completely filled with #Snanger.
It’s a real thing for sure. When you’re completely fed up with the relentless white stuff and can’t get past it, you’re #Snangry
I wonder if there’s someone I can talk to about it, because I just can’t get past it. Perhaps there’s a #Snanger management group that meets in the basement of a local church or something. IF ANYONE KNOWS OF SUCH A GROUP PLEASE LET ME KNOW. CAN’T SEEM TO SHAKE THIS ON MY OWN.

Bob Cooper Is The Bomb!
B.C. Trucking & Excavating was kind enough to push back the snow pile at the end of our mothers driveway tonight after I spotted him clearing a nearby neighbors property. Mom’s carport was recently blocked with a giant mound of snow that was simply to big for a regular plow to move. If your in need of similar snow removal call Bob Cooper @ 1-978-375-3147
Bob Thank you so much for your service tonight! Mom is super happy to have her car back under cover for the winter!

The National Guard is in full swing removing snow from city streets caravaning dump trucks filled with snow to the parking lot of Good Harbor Beach. If you have been out and about town today you clearly could see how hard these crews are working to clear the snow before this weekends storm…Kudos to all involved in this enormous project!
