Channel Marker on Wingaersheek Beach has not moved
I took a walk on Wingaersheek Beach yesterday, looking for the Channel Marker that had washed ashore during a storm. See (Ed Sawicki March 26 2010, entry in GMG ).
I did not realize how big this thing is. Michael Densmore, a professional welder, was also there taking measurements. He is trying to bid on the contract with the Coast Guard, to cut it up so it can be removed. As I took photos I thought how great this would look at the new area on Rogers Street. I also found out that Mike was the welder that had worked on the majority of the channel markers we see around the city.
I hope I get the opportunity to watch them cut this thing up and haul it away.
Even on a cold drizzle day you can find something interesting in Gloucester.

Damon to the Rescue!
Our friend Damon helping out the sailboats that are at the floating dock off the State Fish Pier. One of the boats #13 capsized while practicing near the Paint Factory. The two kids in the boat righted it themselves and climbed aboard all were safe. The Coast Guard was just checking too see if they were all right.
