The Grander Scheme: s/v Northern Symphony

Another simple dream...Another crazy notion: To make a sequel to our Grand Scheme by making an extended great loop starting from our home in Nova Scotia. One boat, two so-called adults, one or two children, and one cat.

Anne
On the day of our anniversary, we left Cape Cod and had a quiet day motor sailing to Gloucester on Massachusetts' other cape: Cape Ann. As we were passing Boston, there was a distinct mirage to the east. The mirage land looked more real than the buildings of Boston off in the haze. In Gloucester, Colin and I had dinner at a dive with good food, but lacking in atmosphere.

The three churches of Gloucester remind me very much of the three churches of Mahone Bay in Nova Scotia.
