justin demetri says: “civil war memorial in riverdale, by captain hooks” and he’s right! Swimdad did a great job of trying to figure it out, though. I wonder if Justin or anyone else has  information about the symbols on the structure.

See you next Monday! Congratulations, Justin! See Joey for your t-shirt. And as always, thanks for playing!

This week’s WhereZat? has another T-shirt PRIZE!

Last week Matt Ayer was the first person to pinpoint the location as the Central Grammar Apartments The 1940 clue  was the year of last graduating class from what was the old high school. (I only know because my father graduated that year.) Congratulations, Matt and all the others who got the answer! Matt, you can get your t-shirt down at Joey’s dock.

How about this snippit? Where is it? One clue- It’s totally out in the open. You don’t have to climb the City Hall steps, walk through the woods, or swim out to the island. Good luck and thanks for playing!!

Backshore Sunrise – 2 hours ago

Woke up early. Threw on clothes and caught the sunrise. Ran into Paulie. Chilly fall mornings are good.

Last Night’s Benefit for Morgan

What a great time at the fundraiser for our good friend, Morgan Huke! Morgan has been the force behind the Harbor Loop concerts and many other music endeavors on Cape Ann. He recently has had some serious medical issues. This event was the perfect way to help Morgan and bring  musicians and supporters  together for a fantastic night.

Here are a few photos-more to follow.

-It’s a converted building from its original use

WhereZat? Winner!

Micah Dean identified the common thread of the photos from yesterday’s contest as scenes from along Washington St. On Sunday I took pictures starting at the corner by the Blackburn and continued to the Rockport town line. It took a few hours, and I saw more than I had ever noticed in the past. Very cool!

Spearze identified the scenes in his response:  “the first..blessed mother is at my former Aunt Vinnce house on Washington st across from Blackburn…second is Sclafani bakery. next is Ed mini mart. scroo kitchen,riverdale mills, bay view cemetry, plum cove….all in washington st.” Thanks, Eric!

And Congratulations, Micah!! You can pick up your t-shirt at Joey’s.

Here’s a slideshow of all the shots from my Washington St. trek- And yes, I know- the last few photos were taken in Folly Cove!
