Summer Sights!



Summer is now fully established with hot and humid days with the occasional thunder storm. Working at the Beauport Hotel, a new view on the city is hard to ignore. At night when I close up the roof top pool & bar the landscape is breath taking and peaceful. In the morning the sun starts it's rise as gulls stir and fishermen head out for the days catch.

What A View!

After 35 years in Quality Control in the Aerospace/High Tech industries it was time to shift gears. After Q/C it was two years with the Fishing Industry as a Dock Monitor and three years working security at an out of town high rise, it's now back home and working at the Beauport Hotel. The new hotel affords new views of Gloucester and working the midnight shift the morning sunrise can take your breath away!

From the Boulevard and banners of fishing boats I took!
 Gull checks out the view!

Fog and Fireworks Leftovers!

 We had a few days of fog so I waited until just before sunset to see if I could find that right light combination. Also I added some leftover July 3rd fireworks and the great sky of that day.
