Bothways Farm Barn Raising Photos From Dean Burgess
Hi Joey,
Drivers along Southern Ave in Essex have been seeing the new barn going up at Bothways Farm,I thought I would share a few pictures for the Good Morning Gloucester viewers as it is not everyday that we get to see a barnraisng in progress.
The frame is made from Douglas Fir and is completely held together by joints and large dowels and no nails or metal braces are used. The frame was made right on site from scratch.The trees were from Maine.
The foundation is actually part of the old giant greenhouse that was there back in the 60`s through 2000 which some of the older generation may remember.

Alpacas at Bothways Farm in Essex
Dean Burgess from Gloucester writes-
I work at Bothways Farm in Essex .Here are the Alpacas that we have at the farm. I thought the GMG viewers would like to see something different in farm animals.As most may know Alpacas are from the South American region and are a cross between a camel and LLamas. Alpacas are herd animals and are used for their wool fibers.We have shaven these Alpacas and have sold the wool. I have seen these animals run very fast,just like a camel.The GMG viwers can see these Alpacas out in the front pasture as they drive by Bothways farm along Southern avenue in Essex.

Essex MA at Dawn 4:39AM 5/30/12 Essex Salt Marsh and The Burnham House
I have never ever in my life been more ferociously attacked and eaten alive by mosquitoes as I did this morning capturing this shot. I drove past it at first but had to loop back. The water was so still, the tide was just right, the light just beginning to peek through.
The mosquitoes were insane I tell you. I’m still itching. Hit this one up larger. I love the reflection of the house and the clouds in the sky reflecting in the water. No brainer, had to get out of the truck and set up the shot, right?
click for the larger version, you won’t be disappointed.

A small crew has been working on making replacement spars for the Schooner Adventure, at Harold Burnham’s yard in Essex. Right now we’re working on the main boom. These pics show a series of steps for putting together laminations of 12” X 2” Douglas Fir planks. Note: we’re not done yet!

Essex MA at Dawn- Essex River Basin 4:36AM 5/24/12
I slipped in the muddy flat and covered my entire leg with sludge. Got eaten alive by mosquitoes.
But it was worth it for this.

Hi Joey,
I was in Essex today and stopped by the Essex Shipbuilding Museum to take a few pictures and noticed the Ardelle at Harold Burnham’s on the low tide mud. Lewis H. Story was on her starboard.

VIDEO- SCHOONER ARDELLE LAUNCH FROM JOANNE MARKS
This one from the perspective behind the Schooner where all the action was including the jacking of the bow and the hammering away at the blocks!
Click here for the dozens of posts containing the building and launching of The Schooner Ardelle here at Good Morning Gloucester.
I think it is safe to assume that no one covered it as well all the way through as the GMG team.
Great Job everyone!
