GMG Jim and I plan to be on the Lady Sea tonight to support the GHS students planning to go to Spain next spring. Aug 24 is my grandfather’s birthday and he always called it “Be Kind to Francis Day” (as his name was Francis though no one called him that). In the time since he passed, I have tried to honor his memory by spoiling loved ones on that day. Since someone I love plans to go on the GHS trip to Spain, we are supporting the trip by taking this sail. Perhaps you will be able to join us or perhaps you can do something special for someone you love today too.

Taking a walk on the Boulevard Tuesday was so beautiful, weather and flowers. The bees were busy pollinating and there were butterflies. Nature working.
Saw my Welcome Center co volunteer walking the boulevard as well.
Thank you Generous Gardeners.

The Madfish Wharf on Rocky Neck is a fun little stroll. It was too early for shops to be open while I was there but there’s still quite a lot to look at. Kudos to those doing the promo work.

They are literally the perfect layering piece of apparel for any gender.
Great for summer evenings or layered in the fall, winter or spring. Also the best for going out to dinner when you know there’s going to be air conditioning and you go from being warm to freezing and uncomfortable.
LAYERING SEASON!!!!
We are coming up to that time of year where you wake up in the morning, head out and it’s chilly, then the middle of the day is hot and then the evening you freeze. You put this over a white t shirt or polo and you’re ready for any temperature swings. You can wear them with jeans, with shorts, just all around the perfect versatile piece.
Congratulations to our Pauline, she is so deserving, we all love going to Pauline’s Gift on Essex Avenue, Gloucester, MA
