These crooks want twenty-five dollars to park at the beach just outside Gloucester’s downtown area on a Sunday. This is not happening. So we cruise around at five miles per hour and enjoy the picturesque neighborhoods filled with tiny houses along the shore.

Above: Stage Fort park is especially beautiful with acres of mountainous rocks on bluffs around us. We scramble to the tops of the highest ones, and walk acres of green shady trails along Gloucester harbor, just inside the Northern Atlantic Ocean.

Sandy swimmable beaches, rough outcroppings, shady picnic areas, big bathrooms, and an interesting visitor center make for another fun easy day.
