Salted Mackerel
Salted herring and mackerel sit in vats, preserved for use as lobster bait.
Over time the salt draws all the fluid from the fish and they shrivel up a bit. Here, our friend Mr Mackerel could use a drink of water to rehydrate. Not to worry, soon enough he will be stuffed in a bait bag and sent off the back of a lobster boat to lure in some unsuspecting lobster that’s poking around at the bottom of the ocean looking for a meal. Mr Mackerel will sure enough find that water once again…..just before he becomes lunch.

Good Morning, Backshore
Not much happening at Niles Pond this morning, but the surf along the backshore, with the sun on the waves, made getting up early worth it.

Dragger Pamet Door
This is one door out of a set of two which separate the net when it is set off of the stern of the trawler(dragger). The chains you see are attached to the cable wire which is released from the winch. Then the net is attached to the doors to get the spread needed to maximize the area of open net and snare as much fish as possible.

Movie – “Rachel Getting Married”
RACHEL GETTING MARRIED
The Cape Ann Community Cinema
267 East Main Street
East Gloucester
978/282-1988
Friday 3/6 @ 5pm & 7:15pm
Saturday 3/7 @ 5pm & 7:15pm
Sunday 3/8 @ 5pm & 7:15pm
When Kym (Anne Hathaway) returns to the Buchman family home for the wedding of her sister Rachel, she brings a long history of personal crisis and family conflict along with her. The wedding party’s abundant cast of friends and relations have gathered for an idyllic weekend of feasting, music and love, but Kym—with her black-comic one-liners and knack for bombshell drama—is a catalyst for long-simmering tensions in the family dynamic. Filled with the rich and eclectic characters that have always been a hallmark of Jonathan Demme’s films, Rachel Getting Married paints a strikingly perceptive and sometimes hilarious family portrait.
“A triumph — Demme’s finest work since ‘The Silence Of The Lambs,’ and a movie that tingles with life.” -Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
“’Rachel Getting Married’ is a masterpiece.” -David Edelstein, New York Magazine
Academy Award Nominee, Best Actress, Anne Hathaway

Cruiseport Gloucester
In keeping with the Cruiseport theme. Taken from the State Fish Pier showing the port at night. The lighting was done well and should provide nice illumination for boaters cruising the channel at night.
