My boy Erik Lorden loves to cook with charcoal. He feels that it gives better heat and flavor. For me it’s a big PITA and when I’m hungry it’s a gas grill for me.
What type of grill do you use? Which do you wish you used and why?
Not gonna lie those big green egg things seem like the coolest thing ever.
Now that I think of it we need to have a BBQ contest don’t we?
Where in the city can you grill outdoors without some special kind of permit and we could have a BBQ contest?

I feel like every time I do a post about breakfast in Gloucester I have to attach the “We are so blessed to have so many awesome breakfast joints in Gloucester” disclaimer but there are a couple that are just straight up special and have been executing perfectly for decades. George’s is one of the elite of the elite in town. If you haven’t gone there recently you’re really missing out. nephew BJ is monster fan of the breakfast boats shown here-

Yesterday Our Twin BJ and Amanda celebrated their Sweet Sixteen Birthday! The day was AWESOME from start to finish! We spent the afternoon in Boston for a “Surprise Lunch” at The Top Of The Hub. Cousin Alison Ciaramitaro snuck up to our table at The Top Of The Hub to wish BJ & Amanda a Happy Birthday in person, she completely surprised BJ & Amanda. Their faces were priceless, …You Rock & we Love you! Then Uncle Joey successfully kidnapped and entertained the Birthday kids, so Barry & I could get to Niles Beach to be a part of the “ Big Surprise” with our family and friends. Thank You to all who helped pull off the Sunset Beach Surprise Party, My Mother Pat, BFF Dee Erwin Noble, Katelyn Foley, Craig Kimberley Brook & Barry Hallete, and Michele Donovan, For helping my mother set up at the beach. Thank you to all our Friends & Family from near and far for making BJ & Amanda feel special on their Sweet 16 Birthday! … We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for all your love and support, we are truly blessed to have you all in our lives… BJ & Amanda were completely surprised, and had a wonderful day!

Direct from Gloucester House owner Lenny Linquata: Their brand new al fresco dining area will be open this Saturday! The menu is fun and casual New England summer fare and includes sweet lobsters, steamers, fresh picked corn on the cob, oysters, shrimp, chowder, and more.
The views from Lenny’s new dock are exquisite–with the harbor laid out before you–Cape Pond Ice, the Paint Factory, fishing boats, lobster boats, schooners, and every kind of sailboat and pleasure boat imaginable. I know where we are headed for dinner this weekend!

The Moolongz teach us how to get past the screeching monkeys in our minds – those persistent, invasive, never-ending thoughts, worries and concerns which prevent us from reaching that peaceful secret place where we can hear and see the Moolongz. Can you get past the screeching monkeys? Can you see Moolongz?
I’m actually pretty sure it is coyote scat. I have been coming across these piles recently (pretty large dog poop size piles) in the road and on the sidewalks along Eastern Point. At first I thought they were left behind by very inconsiderate dog owners, but then started seeing them out in the road, where I can’t imagine any conscientious dog owner would allow their dog to do their do. If you look close, you can see berries or something in there that I don’t think of as typical dog diet stuff. Anyone have any other ideas?
The Rockport Legion Band will perform their fourth free concert of their 81st consecutive summer concert series at the Back Beach Bandstand on Beach St.

Children are welcome. Popcorn and tonic are available. Folding chairs and blankets are good. In case of rain we will play inside the Legion Hall, next to the bandstand.

The band’s new album, “Alek Razdan and the A-Train Orchestra: Two-Timin'”, was released in January of 2012. The title track, “Two-Timin'”, was the Grammy U award winner of the Indaba Music Master Critique competition, held in New York City, New York.

This Thursday on the Lannon! A Sunset Cruise with ALLEN ESTES & FLY AMERO!! watercolor by Marilyn Swift
We only do this once a year, folks, so… please don’t miss it! Sitting on the deck of
the Thomas E. Lannon is perhaps the most elegant way to appreciate the amazing
and beautiful city in which we live. Actually, there always seems to be people from
other parts of the country (and world) on board, taking it all in for the very first
time. We find ourselves looking at familiar waters through fresh eyes as we hear
their stories from points beyond the island. But it’s Tommy, Kay and the rest of the
Ellis crew who are the true stars of the show. So smooth and professional, you can
hardly tell there’s serious work being done all around you – until you volunteer to
help hoist a sail, that is! Thursday, July 31st
A Sunset Cruise with Great Music!
6:30 – 8:30pm (be at the dock by 6:15) The Thomas E. Lannon
Seven Seas Wharf at The Gloucester House Restaurant
Rogers Street (Rte. 127) | Gloucester, MA 01930
978–281–6634 | info@schooner.org Visit:http://schooner.org/ Looking forward… …to seeing you there! 🙂 ~ Fly
