On a rare sunny day

On a Sunny day took a walk on Gloucester’s beautiful Stacy Boulevard. We are lucky to have this jewel.

Time To Think About Garden Flags!

Maybe you’re thinking about sprucing up your yard now that spring is upon us. These garden flags from Pat D’s Photos (available at 44 Main St as well) might be just the ticket. Several different images are available, these are just a few. Many are local images (such as our very own Back Shore Snowy) and these make a lovely addition to your yard or porch. They are sturdy vinyl about 12″ x 18″ and printed on both sides. They are ready to hang (I even have some extra yard flag holders if you need them) and would also make an easy to travel or mail gift! Reach out in comments with questions or feel free to reach me on Messenger. Prices are plus shipping but we always offer free delivery to Cape Ann area. We also have larger porch banners available so maybe you prefer to stop in at 44 Main St. My current hours are Thurs-Fri-Sat 11-5 and Sundays 11-3. Hope to see you soon!

Fishermen

Fishermen. Have you ever had the opportunity to sit on the bleachers at the Newell Stadium and watch the Fishermen (football, lacrosse, soccer, track, etc) play on the New Balance Field? It is really quite special. The new wall that follows the river obstructs some of the view, but even so, watching the kids play while both recreational and commercial vessels head in and out of the harbor as the cut bridge goes up and down is super unique. I’ve often heard parents from opposing teams talk about what a great location we have. Gloucester things.

Doggos Of Main Street

So many sweet canines prance past our window at the shop at 44 Main St that I thought it would be fun to capture just a few of them: Ronan, Bodie, Freya (so cute and enthusiastic that there are 2 photos) and Jelly of interstate media fame. Gloucester is indeed a Dog Town.

Manchester Fishercats Baseball Game, and at Canobie Lake Park.

Video: As far as I’m concerned It’s Oak To Ember vs Just Opened Today- Little Sister Rockport For Cape Ann Burger Supremacy. I want to know who you think takes home the title after you try both.

Confirmed Legit! @littlesister_rkpt Absolute Contender With @oaktoember For Cape Ann Burger Supremacy. I’ll be curious to hear your thoughts after you try it! It comes as a regular burger but you can ask for it smashed. Whichever way you’d like. We opted to ask for it smashed and it didn’t disappoint. Let me know once you try it which burger reigns supreme!
