Walking on the beach yesterday was cold enough without purposely going into the water. I don’t get it, but I sure do admire these guys’ guts.

It’s a great day to shop downtown!
It’s Black Friday and everyone else is “over the bridge” and “up the line” bumping elbows at the malls, but we locals can stay on the island with our wish lists. The pop-up shop(see related Times article) Present has an incredible selection of unique gifts.
Present is a seasonal art collective made up of fifteen local men and women offering a bevy of eclectic fine craft. Living, creating and recycling on Cape Ann are common themes reflected in the goods including bags made from reclaimed sweaters and recycled sailcloth. Look for jingle flounder, lovely wreaths, hand-knit hats, pottery, felted flowers and bowls, fish prints, and photographs inspired by local people and landscapes.
Delightfully unusual wares also include unique prints and collages, hand-dyed clothing printed with seaweed and other found materials, clever clothing and accessories for children, iron-pressed sandwich keepers, hand-knit wire jewelry, beautifully sewn doll clothes, and itty bitty jewels. Present is a great place to shop for pretty things and one-of-a kind gifts and ornaments.
Present is Karen Chapin, Amanda Cook, Jane Cunningham, Jessica Demarjian, Elizabeth Grammas, Frieda Grotjahn, Jill Josephson, Pam Lally, Sharon Lowe, Stephanie Mason Thibodeau, Camilla MacFadyen, Melanie Murray-Brown, Erin and Scott Place, and Mary Rhinelander.
You can visit the holiday pop-up shop at 271 Main Street, Gloucester from November 6th through December 24th, 2010.
Hours: Monday through Saturday 10-6, Sunday 12-5; extended evening hours on Thursday; also open 6-9 on Men’s and Ladies’ Nights
Thanks!! —Sharon
BTW- You can get my Cape Ann calendars at Present, and for those of you who live out of town, you can order them here.

Two Missing Lab Puppies- Back Home Safe!!!! A GMG Update
Rebecca Borden writes in-
Thanks so much – the pups somehow found their way home last night on their own at 1:30am
All is good.
Two lab pups went missing Monday night after they ran off Good Harbor Beach towards the Inn. They are regulars of the beach but not the neighborhood. One is Black (F-Stella, 1yr) and the other is Choc (M-Chester, 8mo). They have tags and reflective collars.
Many thanks for all your assistance.

Art Rock Found! Coincidence?
Last Sunday while driving around the Back Shore I decided to stop at the Elks club Parking lot and Sketch the scene before me on a Rock. Yeah, I know I’m Nuts.
I left it across the street from the Elks Club in the rocks where the Hotel has a sitting area.
I didn’t know my Son was going to bring his friends to the Elks Club to reserve it for their Wedding next year. I posted the Rock I sketched on here on GMG about 11am. I got a phone call at 2:30pm from my son Paul the III telling me they found it. They thought my Son set it up, but he had no idea what I did that morning and I had no idea what he was going to do that day. (Strange ain’t it?) after they reserved the Elks club they walked down the road to where I left the “Art Rock”
Here is the email my son sent me;
Hey Dad, Heres the Picture of them holding the rock. They found it when they walked across from the elks to see where their wedding pictures will be taken. We were all standing around it and tom said “that rock has your name on it” Everyone thought my son Paul set it up. But he did’nt know anything about it. Now that’s a Coincidence! Tom and Joselin are getting married at Good Harbor Beach on labor day 2011 and having the reception at the elks.
Here’s a photo of Tom and his Fiance holding the ROCK. Good Luck Guys!! I hope you enjoy the Rock!

Drowning in Gloucester – News Coverage
All the News Stations came to Gloucester to report on the drowning at Braces Cove.
This is about the coverage. Channel 4, 5 and 7 were all at Good Harbor Beach reporting.
I captured WBZ reporting on video.
My heart goes out to the family who lost a loved one today.

Get to the Beach by any means
People went to the beach by Taxi, Bike and even walked. Good Harbor was crowded this weekend.
But some still found a spot to read a book in solitude.

Rich & Hollis Laprade Represent!
Hi Joey,
Greetings from the two residents of Worcester who consider Gloucester our home away from home. Wista and Glosta share some defining, essential characteristics. Both are hard working communities, populated with real people who are proud of their heritages and willing to struggle for their futures.
It was very nice meeting you yesterday. The three lobsters were delicious and the GMG sticker was a fitting dessert.
As promised, here are some names to go with the pic you snapped of us yesterday while we were literally “holding the bag”: Rich & Hollis Laprade
For what it’s worth, attached are some pictures we took at Good Harbor this morning at sunrise. The light was changing by the second, so the atmosphere was unbelievably dynamic. Couple that with an astronomically low tide and the place was magic this morning.

Surfing at Good Harbor
I’ve been taking a break from posting recently because I was on my Gloucester vacation and totally took advantage of it by disconnecting myself from the world. It was wonderful!
Here are some surf pics. I still need a lot of practice but getting the hang of it. Look how beautiful that water is!
Good Morning Gloucester
