Big Lar Talks About The Farm Bar And Grille Wing Challenge
Nov 6th, 2009 by Joey posted in Good Morning Gloucester
27 Pleasant Street, Gloucester, MA 01930
This program is free and open to the public.
The Cape Ann Museum is pleased to present an exhibition - in painting and in words - created by Gordon Goetemann and inspired by the conductor and composer Gustav Mahler (1860-1911). A Narrative of Life and Glory is Goetemann's exploration, indeed his celebration, of Mahler's 2nd Symphony, one of the most monumental musical scores of the 20th century, and the man who created it. In Gustav Mahler, Goetemann has found both a kindred spirit and a muse, whose musical masterpiece is the basis for these paintings.The exhibition is on view through January 31, 2010.

Fine art photographer David Piemonte and his wife, mixed media artist Terry Del Percio-Piemonte, are exhibiting their work together for the firsttime. The title of theshow,Double Visions,refers to the joy of unlikely combinations. David works exclusively in traditional medium-format photography to create his silver gelatin prints while Terry focuses on abstract watercolor and collage. David draws much of his inspiration from nature and the solitude of night photography; Terry draws her inspiration from experimentation with abstract concepts and color. Although their art seems to be on opposite ends of the spectrum, there is a mysterious thread that ties them together.

Thursday November 19, 2009, 7-9 PM
Sawyer Free Library, 2 Dale Avenue, Gloucester, MA 01930
Free of charge and open to the public
The Sawyer Free Library and Gloucester Lyceum will host a travelog "Traveling to Teach Down Under" with Jim and Lea Watson on Thursday November 19th at 7 PM in the Friend Room.
Jim and Lea will present stories and pictures from their travels in Ireland, Scotland, New Zealand, Indonesia, Hong Kong, China, Japan, and their adventures while living in Australia. Watercolors depicting their journey will be on display.
A Paul Newman Foundation Grant brought Jim and Lea Watson to do the work they love on the other side of the world. Working in Gloucester for thirty years they have been teaching children who are deaf how to listen and communicate with spoken language. An Auditory-Verbal Center in South Australia needed specialists to train therapists and teach
families. A "Round the World Airline Ticket" allowed the Watsons to head east and circle the globe. Lyceum programs are free of charge and open to the public. For more information call 978-281-9763 or visit the library website at http://www.sawyerfreelibrary.org/.

Hey GMG sports fans. Sorry I havn’t posted in a while but it’s been a crazy week at work. I have been traveling up and down the east coast like a yoyo. Anyway I hope to be posting on a regular basis again. I guess this really knocked me down on the ranking. LOL! Have a great weekend!! TGIF!
I’m going to try to post photos and stories of things that I have seen in the past few days but for a week or so I might have to cheat and use some older stuff:
Andrew’s Point at sunrise on September 27:
I liked this one because of the pink cloud a third of the way up above the sun. Doesn’t it look like a lobster? This pic is also a test of how this site handles large photos. This one was trimmed to just under a megabyte which hopefully resides behind the thumbnail with a click of the mouse.
That’s all for this cub reporter today since as I drove to work today in my truck munching on my breakfast sandwich I think I threw a rod. (Can I have a pound of whatever you’re grinding there?) 160 thousand might be the last mile on that puppy. The Ford Focus rental is kind of snazzy.
