The view tonight, looking west over the Gloucester salt marshes towards the setting sun:
Amazing color – I could see in my rear view mirror coming home, and just hoped to make it to a good viewing point before the sun disappeared!
They got this snow storm pretty well correct (which I guess they should, predicting yesterday when the storm was already active further south!); at 7am there was light snow falling and not much on the ground – but it kept on falling:
By about 11am, I went out to take some pictures and measurements (the ruler here shows 9″). We had to exit via the back, and clear the snow before we could open the front! Lots of back breaking work needed to dig out the cars – and right now, it’s snowing once again (they say another inch or two is coming!)
Gloucester has a lot of beaches – my favorite is Good Harbor Beach but today Margaret took us to Long Beach, which is tucked away on the way to Rockport (with limited parking to discourage visitors, apparently!):
