New Truck and Old Waterfront Derelicts!

 I bought a new Ford F-150, similar to my 2020 model both with a 36 gallon tank. But this one has the bigger 5.0 8 cylinder Coyote engine. Surprisingly both the 2.7 twin turbo and the 5.0 have similar mpg ratings. Meanwhile down on the waterfront I came upon some derelicts.

Hurricane Lee Was Really Breezy Lee!

 Hurricane hype filled the super markets and emptied the beaches and when all was said and done we got a little late night rain and a breezy day. On another note I'm heart broken, one of my favorite subjects to photograph is gone! The Bass Rocks Sunrise Tree was taken down! It was wind shaped by nature over the years and withstood what Mother Nature threw at it. A living symbol of our rugged coast.

 After taking about 300 shots during the Gloucester Schooner Festival I'm posting more and probably next week too.
