It's funny how the same subject can take on a different look or different meaning even if taken only moments apart. That's my first thought when going through these images.
Morning fog descends over Commercial Street!

Early June and a Bust!
The first two images I took 10 years ago in early June. After that random shots here and there. Things are slowly getting back to normal as normal can be during this pandemic. Hotels are opening up as I type which will make my job less lonely. Thankfully the mayhem that resulted across the country due to the George Floyd murder never made it across our bridges. There were protests here in Gloucester but they were very peaceful and well organized, even local police participated. Meanwhile the Massachusetts Environmental Police were doing their part protecting our natural resources. I was tipped off of possible poaching. As I left work sure enough I saw their pickup head over where the fishing was done. I don't know the details but what I observed was four young men with as much as six lines in the water while the officer left with a bag of what I assume fish, possible "shorts".

WOW! Over 1 Million Visits to Cape Ann Images!
Not bad for my little photo blog! Thanks to all for the visits!
Meanwhile this week I'm in the fog, literally. Just about every morning we were draped in fog only to burn off later in the day.

All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go!
All these photos were taken this weekend, Memorial Day weekend. During this pandemic Americans pay tribute to our fallen heroes in their own individual way. Social distancing has cancelled parades and large gatherings. But we should reflect on what sacrifices were made to achieve our independence. Good example was WWII where every American sacrificed home and abroad led by a president who removed politics in the effort for world peace. We should all do our part and adhere to all social distancing guidelines and we too can be remembered for what we all did together for a better world!
