This Albino Was landed Today. Out of probably (I’m guessing 10 million) lobsters I’ve seen landed at our dock over the years this is only the second total albino one I’ve seen.
To top it all off it gets landed in the same week as the triple pincher clawed lobster we got in on Saturday. I wonder if the warm water is making these mutated lobsters more active because it is way too much of a coincidence. HD video coming in about an hour or two.
It’s was a great way for long-standing and potential seARTS members to mingle and for up-and-coming artists to meet established artists.
Live music, modern dance, and lots of very very talented people.
A contest for best creative name tag see some below.

80 veterans were honored at the Elks in Gloucester. They had lunch, entertained by music, and a wonderful afternoon of activities. Elk members made it a special day serving the veterans

It was a pleasure meeting these guys and gals, who did so much for our country.
My grad-daughter has a severe milk allergy which is not the same as lactose intolerance, and since so many foods are made with milk and milk products these days that we have to pay attention to what’s in just about everything she eats. I wanted her to have a great time at the Fiesta, without the worry.
I ran into Steve Maniaci co-owner of WEST END SWEETS and he guaranteed that she could have a sweet treat at West End Sweets and no worry. He called ahead to the store and made sure that they used a sterile scoop when they made her a raspberry treat with gummy bears. She loved it, and thank you Steve for making her day.
Parents with children and want to give their kids a treat visit West End Sweets, kids without milk allergies can enjoy the best ice cream in town, but if they do have milk allergies, Steve and his staff will bend over backwards to insure the safety of your child.
They also carry other sweets, I felt like a kid again.
Thanks again Steve.
