My View of Life on the Dock
We needed a few fresh vegetables and stopped by Lattof Farmhouse Kitchen on Main St. in Rockport since we were out on a drive. I was impressed with the variety and freshness of the fruits, veggies and baked goods at the farmstand. On a previous trip, we were delighted by the Kitchen so a stop at the farmstand was inevitable. The pricing is reasonable, the staff friendly and helpful. Another great option for Cape Ann!

On Tuesday evening the Cape Ann Makers Market held an event at the Emerson Inn in Rockport, MA. A beautiful evening, great venue and a fun time.
Thank you again

Caught the full moon beginning to rise while in Rocky Neck on Monday night. As Finn and I drove home it became much more dramatic, but time was not on our side so we fought the urge to follow it for more photos.
We stopped to try out the new lunch menu at Oliver’s Harbor on Main Street. As always, we were greeted in a friendly manner and we seated and served quickly. I had the BLT, which was substantial. Sometimes a BLT can be kind of skimpy but this one was a monster in comparison to most. It was also delicious. Jim had the steak bomb which is also a winner. Hope to see you at Oliver’s sometime soon!
