Surfing at Good Harbor Beach
The surf was wild on Wednesday with the wind. The air was warm but the wind made for some interesting waves.

Thinking of those dealing with no power, evacuation and such destructive, icy flooding.

Today here come the surfers
Rocks have clear icy layers and crunch pack, some pockets of drift
I’m following up on yesterday’s post, which was stopped midstream as we lost power. Scroll below for quick snaps and videos from my walk to Good Harbor Beach, Long Beach, and side streets.

Ocean diamonds summer beach day
Seriously glistening summer day. Cape Ann SUP kypads are really holding up: we’re going on two years of steady use, after renting and taking lessons from Dominic. Gloucester is lucky to have several water sport shopping options. Besides Cape Ann SUP, we’ve had surf lessons, rented and purchased wetsuits (for guests, too) from Surfari on 210 Main Street. Cape Ann Divers in (Shaw’s) Cape Ann Marketplace is another place we’ve purchased various beach essentials and wetsuits.

LIVE from a distance: the 20+ miles row or paddle for Blackburn Challenge is SO impressive!
One participant was nearly a half hour ahead of the next cluster of fellow endurance sport enthusiasts. AT this point in the race the paddleboarders were hunched over but still going strong. Are the dories the most difficult to row?
Participants pass sailboats and working boats, fans and friends motoring nearby, and of course safety-police escort boats there monitoring the route

Ides of March and this time of day nearly a rainbow in every spray

Long Beach can be a surf spot on Saturdays year round; yesterday was dotted.
What if you welcome the morning like this surfer?
They paddled beyond the breaking waves to stop and watch the sunrise.
