Au Revoir
I had half an hour to spend between client meetings on a recent trip to Boston and used that time to take a quick stroll around the blocks between St James and Bolyston Streets as there are lots of great resources in this area for my interior design clientele. The photos are created in the moment and I am having a lot of fun exploring the double exposure mode with the Fujiflim X-E1.

Thursday Night Blues Party @The Rhumb Line to host Steve Sadler~New winter hours 8:00 to 11:00
Dave says,
After much wailing and gnashing of teeth, mahout driver Fred has ordained that the Blues Bash™ shall be forthwith changing our startup time. We’re going for 8 pm to 11 pm all thru the winter. Forget 9 to 12! that’s for youngsters! We’re going for the formaldehyde crowd! But, seriously, folks, a lot of you have struggled to stay awake long enough to force yourselves to go out at nite. I’m the same way. But, if I can do it…..I’m actually excited about this. Many of our loyal fans have been quick to point out that there’s a lag from the time the wake ends till we start, so, this’ll give you a chance to clear the decks. Besides, it’s Valentine’s Day. Bring you insignificant other and clamp down on her heart! Damn, this martini is good….
So, let’s party! This Thursday brings up the rather large matter of Mr. Steve Sadler, one of my personal favorites. Guit-slinger, vocalist and recreational anesthesiologist, you’re sure to find something fabulous in his smood stylings. Not only that, but the electrifying Mr. Jim Scoppa is going to materialize, too. For many years the slashing guitarist for T.H.and The Wreckage, this cat has sharp claws that will open your pineal gland faster than you can say,”What, me worry?” Unfortunately, our chosen drummer, who shall remain nameless, has been rushed to the hospital for emergency cosmetic weenis surgery. Prognosis is good, but a suitable replacement is under my grow lite, and should be firm by Thursday.

To re-iterate: NEW HOURS AT RHUMB LINE ON THURSDAYS ARE 8 TO 11. Please come and enjoy. Your feedback is always welcome.

Hi Joey,
Welcome back from the Sunny Warmth!
With all that fury that Storm Nemo brought over the weekend, Mother Nature smiled a beautiful sunrise this Monday morning at Back Beach in Rockport. The beauty was fleeting as the overcast quickly diminished the spectacle.
Thanks, Skip

Hi Joey:
Blue Shutters is hosting a weekend of Psychic and Mediumship Readings on March 8 and 9th. I was directed to your blog in hopes that I could get some PR around this event. It is my understanding that if anything is a "happening" in Gloucester it is "happening" with the help of your blog. :) What do I need to do to enable this information to be disseminated through Good Morning Gloucester? I have pasted below the Facebook event information from my Facebook page and Blue Shutters will be posting it on their page as well. Thanks for your help!

Hi Joey,
Just wanted to say how much my family and I enjoys Good Morning Gloucester.
You probably have plenty of great photos and video of Nemo but here is a video of the wind-driven waves eroding the shoreline on Coffin’s Beach:
All the best,
