My View of Life on the Dock

Antoinetta was checking on the Chris Williams installation–“Will you be there? Don’t forget December 9th! Saturday is the big reveal and dedication ceremony!” [Scheduled with the Middle Street program, right before the Lobster Trap Tree Lighting which is on Harbor Loop by Maritime Gloucester’s Deck the Docks!]
Each December, for many years now, teams comprised of some dedicated mens league hockey players look forward to the Ancient Mariner Tournament in Gloucester. I know I speak for everyone when I applaud Rusty Harnish for all of the work and dedication he has given to keeping this tournament alive. This year, the Hockey Dawgz, led by Tony Frontiero, won the Ancient Mariner B Championship over the West Pond Hockey Club. The Dawgz overcame a slow start and a 3-0 deficit to win the title 4-3. Congratulations, Dawgz! Happy to feature other champions as well….just submit any photos.
This random fun fact came across my feed and my mind is blown! Am I the only one who didn’t realize this yet?
This year Deck the Docks at Maritime Gloucester coincides with the Middle Street Walk and the Lobster Trap Tree Lighting which will take place at Solomon Jacobs Park on Harbor Loop- just steps from Maritime Gloucester!

O enchanted island! On my way off island today got to catch our first snowfall☃️Shortly after crossing the bridge the sun was out and not a flake in sight. How blessed we are to live on snow-kissed Cape Ann!

The tides have been running at their more extreme ends during the recent full moon phase. It’s always interesting during a very high tide to see swimming water fowl when I look out the back porch of our apartment. Here are some views of the recent high tide at Dolliver’s Neck and Old House Cove. Check out the video especially if you enjoy the sounds of the pebbles washing back.
Kate and I are going to feature one or two local places to buy holiday gifts each day highlighting the fact that there’s no need to buy your presents online or trudge up to the mall. There’s excellent places to shop right here in Gloucester. For more visit www.goodmorninggloucester.com
