To live in a city where there are schooners sailing in Gloucester Harbor is wonderful
The Lannon and The Ardelle on Thursday afternoon.


It is always interesting and pretty walking around Maritime Gloucester.

While Rick and I were kayaking around Gloucester Harbor on Saturday the Ardelle went by as well as the Beautiful Lannon So pretty.

The Ardelle early Thursday morning going by Kettle Island.

Photo’s from Gloucester’s fantabulous-in-every way Maritime Heritage Day. With wonderful activities for mariners at heart, both young and old, beautiful wares for sale, folk music, and delicious seafood, this event just gets more and more awesome every year. I can’t wait to take our granddaughter to next year’s Maritime Heritage Day!
