My View of Life on the Dock
This week’s Where Zat? might take some driving (or walking) around to spot this. First person to get the location will get a GLOSTA-phobic t-shirt. Clues will be given if needed.
The creators are excluded! But thanks for your great decorations.Please let us know who you are. 🙂
Paul, Joey, ect….NO, it’s not my bathtub full of bubbles!!
For all of you who guessed sea foam, congratulations. Donna A sent in the frothy photo and suggested we use it as as a WhaZat? picture. Thank you Donna!
See you next week with another Where Wha Who ZAT???!!!
WHAT: Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents
WHERE: The Rhumb Line
WHEN: Friday, October 23rd from 9:30pm – 12:30am
DETAILS: 3 sets / 21+ / no cover
Just back from their performance at the Montreal Pop Festival, Jenny Dee and the Deelinquents will be at The Rhumb Line this Friday for three sets of girl-group rock ‘n’ soul. Along with some select girl-group covers, the band’s repertoire channels Ronnie Spector via Ike and Tina Turner, and brings the crowd to the dance floor in droves. With a crack backing band featuring members of The Gravel Pit, Papas Fritas, the Phil Aiken Army, and Electric City, the Deelinquents will kick up their heels in Gloucester before starting a residency at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, every Thursday night in November.
Why, oh why, do I do this to myself?? All I wanted to do was take the humidifier out of the closet and put it in the bedroom. Two hours later it’s still in the closet and to get to the computer, I had to climb over 2 boxes of old photos, a bin full of cassettes, a fan, the vacuum, and various storage thingies from under the bed. Whaaaaa???!! OVERKILL!!! And I get trapped into these huge projects when all I want to do is one little task. I know it’s my evil twin forcing me into subservient behavior. I would NOT do this willingly. Well, back to the mess. Oh, btw, I re-wired my speakers and re-installed the FM antenna on my receiver in the process. Yay!
After several good answers to this week’s location, Ellen MacDonald was the first person to identify the stone structue as St. Anthony’s Chapel in East Gloucester. Mary Ann also got the correct location shortly after Ellen.
Congratulations, Ellen! The tickets to King Richard’s Faire are yours! Pick Up The Tix at Captain Joe’s
A big thank you to Joke Shop USA for the donation of this week’s prize!
See you next Monday with a new Where Zat? game!
Uh, this was not from this weekend! 🙂 I’m not sure how difficult this will be, but I guess we’ll find out!
Good luck, and I’ll add clues if needed!

As I was picking up my kayak a couple of days ago, the smell of Stinky Beach reminded me how much I loved this place. Wading through mounds of seaweed in bare feet and dodging the rocks was a way of life as a kid. Still is. I remember my first attempt with my friends to row a tiny “borrowed” boat that I think, was my cousin Dickie’s. We went around in circles for hours. Kid life in Magnolia!
I’m gonna do a GMG Power Ranking feature. This is all for fun and jest so don’t get all bent up and twisted if I don’t feature you right away if you’re a regular contributor.
I also won’t include myself in teh power rankings as that would be obviously lamo.
#1 in teh GMG Power Rankings is the girl who I first brought aboard. My very own Robin Quivers- loyal, dedicated and passionate for Gloucester- The one and only Sharon Lowe.
I brought Sharon into the fold shortly after meeting her at last year’s October Block Party. She had her Nikon slung over her shoulder and was snapping away. I had a very brief conversation with her that night but felt an instant connection as to what GMG was about and what I wanted it to be.
At the time I was putting out about 6 or 7 posts a day and winter was approaching. I knew I’d be going on my vacations in Naples and was fretting how I’d be able to maintain the quality. The blog had already taken off and I didn’t want to let the growing fan base down.
Sharon stepped up initially with one post a day and before long I gave her editorial control and another time slot, the 9AM and the 12PM.
Before long she came up with the very popular Where Zat? game every Monday at noon. Her contributions have been invaluable and I can always count on her to cover her two posts a day. If she’s going to miss a post time she’ll also let me know so I can cover it for her.
If I had to put out 12 posts a day I could never keep the quality you’ve come to expect without contributions from all of our team but Sharon is the one constant that I can count on every time.
So give Sharon a shout out and a big congratulations on her #1 GMG Power Ranking.
Keep in mind if she starts to fuck up she will be knocked right out of that #1 spot as the list will be static and ever changing. More power rankings in the days to come.
Here’s a bit more of the whole photo from Monday’s Where Zat? Jay probably has it now. Anyone else? This is fun!
You oughta get this one! Not real obvious except for some. Good luck! A Glosta-phobic t-shirt for the winner if you haven’t won in the past!
No winners this week! I think this is the first time no one has won.
Anyway, the location was behind the North Shore Art Association on Pirate Lane in E. Gloucester.
We’ll try again next week!
Have a great weekend!

2. It’s not in the river.
3. It’s early morning.

This week’s Where Zat? is a little off the beaten path. Depends which path you travel;). If you haven’t won at Where Zat? in the past, here’s your chance to SHINE!
Good luck! And thanks for playing!
Good Morning Gloucester
