Alpaca Fun

Many times throughout our recent vacation, we found ourselves reminded of home. This visit to Krystal Acres Alpaca Store and Farm is one example. GMG Jim spotted it so off we went in search of fun. And it was vastly more entertaining than I imagined. We were thinking of our dear friend Donna and her love of the Marshall Farm alpacas. So, cheers Marshall Farms! We now love alpacas too. The video should be viewed with the sound ON if you have never heard alpaca vocalization, as it startled me quite a bit. If you ever visit that part of the country, stop by for some extra fun.

Ribcraft Wavewalker Is Pretty Badass

This guy drives by the dock every now and again and I’m always admiring this beast.

Ribcraft Rigid Inflatable Boats are manufactured in Marblehead, MA, just down the line from us in Gloucester and their instagram account is pretty interesting- https://www.instagram.com/ribcraftusa/

I’m hoping to get down there when things slow down at the dock and do some video tours for Good Morning Gloucester.

Gloucester Fire Department Announces Fireworks Display, Urges Community to Leave Show to Professionals

GLOUCESTER — Fire Chief Eric Smith reports that a professional fireworks company will provide a fireworks display over Gloucester Harbor as part of the Gloucester Schooner Festival on Saturday, and Chief Smith is encouraging residents to leave the fireworks to the professionals.
The large fireworks display will be held Saturday, Sept. 3, at 9 p.m., at Stage Fort Park, with a rain date of Sept. 5.
In light of drought conditions and ongoing high fire danger conditions in the community, Chief Smith is asking community members to assist the fire department by avoiding use of unauthorized fireworks.
“There are a lot of very large fireworks scheduled to be set off for the public’s enjoyment by a professional firm that is contracted with event organizers and approved by the Fire Department. It will be a great show,” Chief Smith said. “Despite much needed recent rains, drought conditions and fire danger remain extremely high, and we want to ensure everyone remains safe while enjoying the holiday weekend, so please leave the fireworks to the professionals.”

Wicked Tuna at the Blue Collar

Finn had fun playing this new virtual Wicked Tuna fishing game down at the Gloucester House’s Blue Collar Lobster Company the other day. A nice little additional to an already fun space.
