My View of Life on the Dock
On Tuesday afternoon, this nice couple come into the Gloucester’s Welcoming Center. They were fun and getting ready to go on a 8:00 pm. boat ride. Just as we were closing up, went out to say have fun, and they were sitting on Gloucester’s wonderful rocking chair on this great porch.
From Carol Mondello at the Gloucester’s Visitor Center.
We have water…. thank you City of Gloucester, MA this summer you can come fill up your water bottles with our cool filtered water in our brand new filling station.
For all the reasons Jim Dowd so entertainingly cites in yesterday’s rant, plus the fact that your personal livelihood might actually depend on them, it’s that time of year to welcome tourists to Gloucester — and be grateful they’re coming.
The Gloucester Visitor’s Welcoming Center opens tomorrow at Stage Fort Park and Kathie Gilson, who runs it, has invited everyone who’s business supports Gloucester’s visitor economy to attend the opening reception at 5pm. Bring your brochures to display at the Visitor’s Welcoming Center for the season.
You might also want to check your listing on GloucesterMA.com, the City’s official visitor website. Everybody knows that the Web is the number 1 source of information for visitors and GloucesterMA.com is Gloucester’s #1 tourism website. It’s the top Google result for nearly every Gloucester tourism related phrase (hotels, inns, restaurants, etc.) and many local businesses report that GloucesterMA.com is their number 1 source of referrals after Google. It’s a free service offered by the City, so you might as well take advantage of it. If you need any changes to your listing, or it’s not there or you notice anything that’s incorrect, click here and explain the situation. It will be taken care of quickly.

Here is Bev Hanna Jones. When stopping by the Gloucester Visitor Welcoming Center she rolled in there with a gaggle of about 40 people on a tour bus from Ontario Canada. I had a nice chat with Bev for the Gloucester perspectives video coming up at 2PM.

Currently this WPA mural is hung in the Gloucester Visitors Welcoming Center. NOAA is interested in it and it is currently hung improperly for such a valuable piece. There is simple window framing holding it up and it is tearing along seams where nails are holding up the heavy canvas. They couldn’t figure out who the artist was. I wonder if Susan Erony who did the lecture series on the WPA Murals around Gloucester knows. Video at 2PM.
