Day trip to Rockport

(Pegg took this one.)








"Motif No 1" - the most painted/photographed building or spot in Rockport. Truth.


Last sunday Pegg and I decided to take a drive to Rockport. It's a small coastal town near Salem and Gloucester.

We got up relatively early, for us, and hit the road.

It was a beautiful day. Traffic was light. Sun was out. It was a nice day for a drive.

We spent most of the day walking around the town, stopping in at little shops, and taking in much of the scenery. We stopped at Tuck's Homemade Candies to pick up a treat. We got a lot of sun. Grabbed some lunch at Portside Chowder House. Clam chowder and lobster rolls. Yummy. Then we sat on a bench overlooking a small strip of public beach. An elderly couple was sitting next to us on the bench. I imagined us sitting there in 50 years. It made me smile.
