My View of Life on the Dock
On Thursday afternoon close to sunset noticed the calmness of the sea and some beautiful reflections at State Pier.


At the State Pier on a cloudy Monday watching this fishing boat leave the safe harbor. The sign that states danger rocks, also makes you think about how dangerous it is for our fishing vessels to fish everyday.

Wednesday was a really pretty day after the snow. Around sunset could not help myself and went to Good Harbor, State Pier and Magnolia Landing.


A flock of seagulls.

Wednesday night the sunset was beautiful. From the State Pier to Magnolia Landing.

Such a beautiful bird at the State Pier on Thursday.


Love going to the State Pier to see the ducks and sometimes seals. On Saturday the ducks were have a great time.

On Friday before the Buoy Auction went over to the State Pier, the harbor was like a mirror. Amazing how the ocean can change continually.




Very interesting reflections at the State Pier.


Beautiful Industry down at the State Pier.

A couple of years ago, because of research I was doing about Gordon Parks in Gloucester and thankfully Joey posted on Good Morning Gloucester, I was able to interview Manny and Joanna Carrancho. Manny and his family spent considerable time giving me a detailed account of earlier events in their lives. They shared treasured historic photos and first hand knowledge and were a delight. Part 2 photographs continue with a town procession from the state pier to the church.
More photographs tomorrow
