My View of Life on the Dock
These folks impress me no end… From Demetri’s Taekwondo Academy at the street bazaar.
See the top piece of the board flying away in the photo below?
I bet her kids say, “Yes, ma’am!” when she tells them to clean their rooms… (although her son was also there breaking things during this demo).
The Friends of Gloucester Dog Park will be staffing an information table in front of the Visitor’s Center at Stage Fort Park on the following Thursdays from 3pm-5:30 pm: August 16, 30 and September 13 and 27. We will have lots of activities and dog park merchandise for sale including t-shirts, bumper stickers and our red signature bandanas for the dogs.
Back by popular demand on August 16 will be David Feldman of Skillful Hands, a certified dog massage therapist. He will be givng free dog massages and talking to pet guardians from 3- 5pm. You are also encouraged to walk around the dog park site and let your best friend ‘sniff’ it out for themselves. It’s a great opportunity to get an up close and personal glimpse into the entire process behind the makings of Cape Ann’s first dog park. Come see for yourself what the excitement is all about.
The dog park is being built entirely by private donations. Please consider making a donation by mailing a check to The Gloucester Fund (in memo line write dog park),
45 Middle St., Gloucester, MA 01930. Also visit our website at www.gloucesterdogpark.org for information, updates and to join our mailing list.
Johnny Pesky, who during a six-decade-long association with the Red Sox as player, manager, broadcaster, coach, and executive became one of the most popular figures in the team’s history, died Monday. He was 92.
RIP, Johnny!
After several intermissions to clear the stage of panties thrown at the musicians the capacity crowd was whipped into a frenzy.
The riot police was called in after the third encore when several senior citizens were spotted hanging from the chandelier in the Rose Baker Ballroom.

Joey,
I would like to post this photo on GMG.
My husband took it yesterday. It’s of Stubby, the Harbor Loop cat.

Great time last night on the Ardelle. Challenge race/knot tying/chanty singing/man overborard contest–wound up in a dead heat (right Tom?).

Michael and Katie Goot are here in Gloucester on their honeymoon from Clifton Park, NY. Michael is a reporter for the Daily Gazette and Katie is an RN. They are staying at the Peg Leg in Rockport and love it here. They bought one of my glass paintings, Moonrise Over Wingaersheek, for their new home and life together, and hopefully will become regular friends of Good Morning Gloucester.

Registration is now open for my close-up photography class, Nature in Focus, which will be held at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard, at the Hunnewell Building, on Sunday September 3oth, at 9:00 am. I especially love teaching at the Arnold Arboretum. The facilities are beautiful, the staff wonderfully helpful, and September is a particularly gorgeous month to visit the gardens of the Arboretum.

Now that I am back from my retreat, I need to catch up on processing photos from the previous weekend – including a selection of shots from Demetri’s Taekwondo Academy demonstration at the street bazaar. The kid in the photo (above) impressed me by splitting a board with one blow… I’ll post more of these cool taekwondo moves throughout the week!
Good Morning Gloucester
