The Tulips are rising on Stacy Boulevard #gloucesterMA

Beauty of the seasons on the beaten path!

After big rain and wind storm Monday evening and Tuesday, Wednesday’s sunny morning shines on Generous Gardeners beds along Stacy Boulevard. Tulips are rising. Pansies and daffodils showing. Go!

Happy Easter Happy Spring #GloucesterMA

What’s it like here today? A bright and chilly Sunday, about 39°, meant hats and warmer coats for daybreak walkers. Gig rowers were pulling a fast clip in the harbor. Shorebirds and tracks were absent from the beach. Seagulls and robins were in the streets thanks to a night of heavy rains flooding out earthworms.

February 15, 2022 Looking for Hibbard

Thinking about all the colors in snow with light and shadow, and artists impressions of white, prompted a brief mission to Cape Ann Museum followed by a Rockport confirmation pass. (I know the Motif has been rebuilt and situated, and the Hibbard hill is fancy. Still. The thrill of tracing is immediate here!)

Cape Ann and Monhegan Island Vistas, CAM temporary exhibition did not disappoint and marked a rare stop since pre-covid. In January 2021 I was masked and looking at another Hibbard on display at CAM.

The tides are high

The tides have been high for the last couple of days.  Wednesday on Stacy Boulevard 3.5 hours after high tide the splash over was still happening.

Gloucester Shell Art

Shell Art on Stacy Boulevard. One day it’s hanging on a tree, the next day it disappears. Seagulls must also decorate for the Holidays.

Merry Christmas, happy New Year to all. Gloucester, Massachusetts
