My View of Life on the Dock
Hi Joey-
In honor of Grandparents day, I thought I would share a photo I took this past Friday of Damon teaching his Grandson to row. What a great guy!

A dozen or so MGs and assorted Triumphs on the Boulevard a little after noon today (Sunday), taking photos before proceeding on their 4th annual Boston Area MG Club Cape Ann tour.

Marvin Gaye’s family has accused Robin Thicke’s smash single “Blurred Lines” of plagiarizing “Got To Give It Up,” the 1977 R&B dance song. Thicke has stated he was inspired by “Got To Give It Up,” and “Blurred Lines” evokes 70’s funk music, but does it go to far?
What do you think?

If you’ve moved away I bet there are a whole lots of places you’ll recognize from this ride.
All You Have To Do Is Look at The Sick Gear They Are Using To Shoot It.
Listen, in the past 5 years with the incredible advances in camera technology every soccer mom in the universe thinks they are capable movie producers.
I can’t begin to tell you how many different production companies have come down to the docks pitching us on yet another idea for a reality show based on our dock and our lobstermen.
Most have their Canon Mark X with a Video shooting rig and all the L series lenses. They want you to sign your life away, work for peanuts for the first season and do everything but tell you that they are going to make you look like a complete jackass. But hey, you’ll be on TV so it’s all good. 99% of them are jokers.
Not the team from EvolveIMG, the team who shoots Wicked Tuna. They are the real deal and from this shot just inside the dogbar breakwater of the type of high tech gear they are using to shoot the next season of Wicked Tuna, you know this is a big budget, high quality outfit.
Thanks for the rock-solid-despite-crazy-waves memories, Cineflex. You are one smooth rig. #gearshot @evolveimg pic.twitter.com/sYLyTdf8Tp

Lifeguards at Wingaersheek Beach rush to assist a young swimmer who ran into difficulty in the choppy surf near the rocks on Sunday. A minute later he was high and dry and in fine shape.
Rick and I enjoyed a wonderful evening on The Lannon on Saturday evening. The Lannon is such a pretty boat. Kay and Tom with their great crew make you feel so comfortable and welcome. The cruise at 5:30 -8:00 took all the stress away not just one day of stress but a lifetime. Here a couple of pictures of our cruise. When it was time to get off, just wanted to turn around and take another cruise. Thank you Lannon.
