New product

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

Trying something new out for Ardizzoni Photography.  A Beach towel with the name of the photo.  Looking at this should have put the lettering in White.  This is Good Harbor Beach.  Thinking of doing this for all locations of the photos I take.  Any suggestions.  Not a great photo.  Thank you

Pen to Paper

Posted on by Nichole S.

I work most often on my computer at work and my laptop at home, but there is something super satisfying about pen to paper and I find that is how I still need to most often organize my thoughts and notes and lists. At work I have a notebook for different jobs and responsibilities and they recently have all become shabby and torn. If how excited I was to unpack these crisp new notebooks yesterday is wrong, I don’t want to be right. New year, new notebooks…. let’s go.

Memories From 1943

Posted on by Pat D

When I was a teenager, I found the poetry of Gordon Parks and was awestruck. So maybe you can imagine my surprise and delight when I learned THE Gordon Parks had a photography assignment right here in Gloucester for the Office of War Information. I came across these photos in the Library of Congress digital collection (search Gloucester Massachusetts) which has been covered previously in this blog by Catherine Ryan back in 2014-Link here: https://goodmorninggloucester.com/2014/03/01/catherine-ryan-on-gloucester-ma-in-landmark-farm-security-administrationoffice-of-war-information-fsaowi-documentary-photographs-part-1/. They are all from June 1943, almost 80 years ago. I thought some of our readers might remember or recognize these families or fishing vessels.

They include Franasco Parisi, youngest member of the F/V Alden; Frank Mineo, owner F/V Alden, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Lopez, fish skinner with 2 sons in the service; Antonio Milietello, oldest crew member F/V Alden; 4 generations of the Machado family (Mary Machado, Isabell Lopez, Irene, Francis, Dorothy Sr. and Dorothy Jr.); and 97 year old Mary Machado grandmother to 11 in the service. Each photo includes a brief description so I have included one of those for reference. The emphasis on men in the service is understandable given the year and the assignment. You can find additional information about Gordon Parks from this story by Keith Powers. Enjoy your stroll through Memory Lane.

The Rocky Neck Polar Plunge rang in the new year with a splash on Sunday, collecting 512 pounds of food and $1,740 in donations for The Open Door.

The annual tradition, coordinated since 2006 by Gloucester residents Cathy McCarthy and Jeff Surette with the help of a small group of volunteers, encourages locals to take a brisk dip in the water at Oakes Cove Beach on Rocky Neck to kick off the new year while simultaneously collecting food donations for The Open Door.

Some kind words from Paul Czarnecki

Joe, congratulations on 15 years of Good Morning Gloucester.

As my wife, Kristin, and I have been trying to relocate out to Cape Ann for years, a local friend of Kristin’s recommended subscribing to Good Morning Gloucester.  

Now that we’ve been out here for good since August, we couldn’t have done it without you and Katelyn.  Katelyn was incredible in helping us find a rental while we relocated and sold our house several states away.  We are ecstatic to be here for Gloucester’s 400th year and look forward to being part of the community for years to come.  Kristin is involved with Literary Cape Ann, the Cape Ann Museum and Gloucester 400.  Gloucester 400 just published her Cape Ann tale:

One of my 2023 resolutions is to become as involved in the community as my wife has done.

Living here is an embarrassment of riches.  We look forward to every edition of Good Morning Gloucester.

Cheers to you, Katelyn and the family.

Paul Czarnecki
