Storm approaches!
A little closer.

Contrast in a Storm!
At least I'm getting yard work done! I refuse to become bored despite working in an empty building during the overnight shift. One way to do that is to focus on the beauty around us, especially where you never expect it.
Storm approaches!
Shelf Cloud looms ahead.
The UU Church and City Hall.
Diamond in the sky!
City Hall pops in front of the dark clouds.
St. Ann's outshines the storm!
Our Lady of Good Voyage also outshines the approaching storm!
A little closer.
City skyline the morning after.
F/V Captain Dominic with a list!
Social distancing of a feathered sort!

I suppose you can call this "Gloucester Vice"!

Fishermen's Wife's statue.
Fishermen's Memorial, look close and you'll see a heart projecting on the distant Beauport Hotel!

A Positive Result of Covid-19!
I've noticed how clear the air and sea is, I guess a harsh way to cleanse the earth. In the meantime I managed another home project, I replaced my shed ramp. It was getting spongy as the wood was rotting. My nephew next door is in the process of expanding his deck. I re-purposed his discarded mahogany planks to build my new ramp. It was a tricky project because the land slopes in two directions and need access to drive my lawn tractor from the side of the ramp.
Old rotting ramp.
Fitting the new ramp.
Done!
Photo bombed Heathcliff the Sentry Gull!
Gloucester at daybreak.
Fishing IN the harbor!

Life Goes On!
So it goes, life during a pandemic. More than ever we all need to do the right thing to overcome this. It will take teamwork from the biggest team of all, mankind! And that means social distancing and wearing masks. So mask up, smile with your eyes and actions and we can all beat this hopefully in the near future.
Meanwhile I didn't take many images this week, been busy doing yard work and fixing things around the house. I included images from 5 years ago this week.
Early in the week I noticed a large animal had dug a couple of holes around a stump in the yard so I filled them in. the net day as I got home from work they were opened up and it looks something even larger like a coyote dug'm up! I'm thinking a groundhog made a den in there. I covered them up again and it's been undisturbed for 5 days now.
Allie sniffing the rock filled milk crate I use for a counter weight.
The yellow cable is attached to a lever on the plow. The lever when pulled back allows the blade to pivot left, right or straight ahead. I got tired every time I had to change the angle I'd have to get off the tractor to change it. Not anymore thanks to this hack!
Time to remove the plow, tire chains and milk crate.
Ready for the mowing season parked in its "plastic barn"!
Daybreak looking towards East Gloucester.
City skyline.
The Beauport Hotel rises this week in 2015!
Full moon rising May 2015!
