Albino Lobster Landed At Captain Joe and Sons Video

This is just way too much of a coincidence to have two incredibly rare lobsters landed in the same week.  I wonder if it has to do with warm water temperatures

Rocky Neck Accommodations Penthouse Suite Renovation Tour 7/20/10

The Faherty’s Gorgeous Penthouse Is Now Available Nightly.  You can pull up by boat and stay in this penthouse with full kitchenette and deck overlooking beautiful Smith’s Cove.  A Hop Skip and A Jump get’s You To The Rudder or Studio Restaurant’s For Dinner or Drinks.  Amy’s Coffee and Cones is just next door for your quick snack or breakfast at Sailor Stan’s.

Because the place had been under construction all summer it hasn’t been advertised so there is still availability even though we are in the height of the tourist season.

Great insider scoop right there baby!
