Fun day on Monday. I know people will wonder why I like the snow, but since I find it pretty and cleansing, had to go out and play. Thank you, Rick, for photo taking. Snow blowing is not as easy as it looks. Then decided to get my beach chair out to get ready for the summer.

‘deborah quinan | where color breathes’
from March 6-29
with an Opening Reception on Saturday March 7th 2026 from 2:00-4:00pm.
Quinan writes:
“I paint loosely from intuition, finding joy in the discovery of layers of color coming together to form a cohesive whole. I enjoy the freedom to explore paints, color and composition without having to worry about incorporating objects in the painting; and if I do, abstraction gives me permission to render those objects in a new and unique way.”
The artist has exhibited extensively in both Boston and the North Shore and is a affiliated with several established art organizations. Recent travels include a painting retreat in Provence, France. Quinan maintains studios in Swampscott, MA and North Sandwich NH. Contact dquinanart@gmail.com .

Cancer as a Metabolic Disease Why More Younger Women Are Developing Breast Cancer
Thursday Feb 26, 2026 5- 6:30 pm Sawyer Free Library, Gloucester, MA
Is cancer a haphazard genetic disease that still appears to be poorly understood by the cancer industry? Or is cancer actually a metabolic disease, created by logical biological conditions? If so, what is causing so much more breast cancer in younger women today?
Dr. Susan Wadia-Ells, author of Busting Breast Cancer: Five Simple Steps to Keep Breast Cancer out of Your Body, will discuss this critical question at the Sawyer Free Library on Thursday February 26, 5-6:30pm.
Wadia-Ells, a Manchester, by the Sea resident, is an investigative journalist with a background in political economy and women’s studies. In 2008, continuing to lose too many friends to metastatic breast cancer, she founded the National Breast Cancer Prevention Project to fund her research, while also writing the “Honest Health” column for the Gloucester Daily Times.
