Two members of the Cape Ann Community will be discussing their experiences as visitors to Haiti and the Dominican  Republic on Sunday, November 3 from 4 to 5 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist Society of Rockport, 4 Cleaves Street,  Rockport. Rockporter Mary Ann Camp, RN, has been a frequent volunteer at the Partners in Development Medical

Heidi Wakeman of Gloucester, a Spanish teacher in the Rockport schools, will offer information on her  trip to the Dominican Republic as an educational envoy with Friends Beyond Borders. Light refreshments will be served following the talks. All are welcome.

The Stevedore

Hello, Joey:
I hope you’ll share this YouTube link to my new original song, “The Stevedore.” It’s a sea chantey with a twist of contemporary realism: rather than the typical sea song that features drunken sailors, this one is about a stevedore (or lumper or longshoreman) who develops an addiction to painkillers. It’s a tribute to the very tough people who have made a living unloading the cargo from fishing boats and, I hope, a way of honoring Gloucester’s recovery community. I hope the song touches a chord with your readers.
The song is performed by The Dorymates (Janet Ruth Young and Tony Hilliard) with our friend Tim Perkins. It was recorded by H. Nat Stevens.
Best wishes,
Janet Ruth Young

The cod end is hoisted over the vessels transom and over the deck. Same trip.

The cod end full of cod is being positioned over the checker boards. Just look at the size of that haul compared to the fisherman below. I'd love to ID this vessel. She was steel, and the photos were taken by James H. Goodwin in the early 1950's.
