Jill Heine: A contrail circle over the schooners

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey

While I was watching the magnificent parade of sails on Sunday I noticed a small plane trying to make a contrail circle over the schooners. I think this is a cool pic and thought I’d share it .

Stay well Joey

Yummy Lunch at Mile Marker One

Posted on by Pat D

We needed to schedule a late lunch/very early dinner recently so we made an online reservation with Mile Marker One. It’s easy-peasy to schedule the reservation and since it was for a late weekday afternoon, the time slots were generally open. My sister was visiting and this is one of her favorite stops so it was a no brainer. Although hardly any other diners were inside with us, we were given great service. The bubbly sangria was delicious and Paula enjoyed “Mr. Happy”, a perfect summer cocktail. Jim got one of the specials: lobster bruschetta and it was LOADED with lobster. Paula ordered fish and chips which she thoroughly enjoyed. I had the Haddock Reuben which was very filling and tasty. Mile Marker One is a lovely setting with great service and creative menu items. Thanks Mile Marker!

This is the time of year we get photos f these fish sent into the blog as the Giant Sunfish are not seen all the time and when people come across them they recognize how different they are.

Also the subject of one of the funniest videos ever when a couple of Massholes documented their encounter with a “Baby Whale”

Here’s my brief personal take on a successful Gloucester Labor Day Weekend Schooner Festival. Saturday eveing down on the docks before race day, and on Sunday the Parade of Sail out to the starting line, seeing the race at a distance from our house, and then sailing out on Troll to welcome some of the 27 schooners back into the harbor.

Anna & James Eves “Cape Ann Sea Salt” Startup Named In Bloomberg Article

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hanna Kimberley Writes:

Sooooo very proud of my dear friend Aniko, whose new business was chosen to represent our great state of Massachusetts. And James, her husband, who brings in the water for Cape Ann Sea Salt! Whoot!

In March 2020, Anna Baglaneas-Eves and her husband, James Eves, launched a pandemic-proof venture: solar-powered sea salt. They collect ocean water in Rockport, filter it and evaporate it in a greenhouse in their backyard. “This is ocean-to-table,” she says. After growing sales 250% in 2021, they’re now expanding Cape Ann Sea Salt from farmers’ markets and online sales to restaurants and stores.
