Lovely Lunch at Blue Marlin Grille

Jim was craving some Italian Fish Stew and so off we went to get the one he likes the best: Blue Marlin Grille on Eastern Ave in Essex. It was lunchtime but our meal choices were more than enough for an additional meal. We saw friends (hi Marcy) and were served by friendly staff (thanks Morgan). I got the meatballs, which could have served to fill in for the moon during the eclipse (they are large enough) and Jim got fried clams along with the Italian Fish Stew. PS They are open on Monday, so win-win!

Gloucester Police Advise Community of Road Closures and Detours Due to Paving

Police Chief Edward Conley reports that paving projects will lead to road closures and detours and affect parking next week.

From Monday, April 29, to Friday, May 3, work crews will be grinding and paving East Main Street between Highland Street and Hammond Street.

As a result, inbound traffic will be detoured through Mount Pleasant Avenue, to Hammond Street, and then back to East Main Street.

Additionally, from Wednesday, May 1, to Friday, May 3, Western Avenue between Centennial Avenue and Middle Street will be ground and paved on the side toward the water. On Western Avenue, no parking signs will be in place on the westbound side of the avenue, and the double lane will be used for two-way traffic. 

Police will be at both sites to help direct traffic, but motorists in the area are advised to expect delays and to seek alternate routes if possible. 

Whale Watching Wait Is Almost Over

We are excited that the whale watching options here in Gloucester will be opening soon and I cannot wait to get back out there. Thank you to the Women’s Community Club of Magnolia for offering Cape Ann Whale Watch tickets as a raffle prize, which I won!! Woot Woot. Here we come!

Beautiful light at Wingaersheek Beach

On Wednesday took a walk on Wingaersheek Beach before it rained on Wednesday.  The light was incredible.
