Watch out, Grand Canyon State

We said a sad but cheerful, “Happy Trails!” to Jason Comeau yesterday at Café Salerno. The meal was full of laughs as Skev provided his usual comic relief (can't be posted, it’s rated PG-13) and we recounted years of good times with Jay at the Ranger/Gate helm. We sat there for a long time, wondering when the check was coming, only to find out that Jay had paid the tab! Whadda guy! The Beverly clock, travel snacks and sentimental card we gave him shot straight to his heart. He came back to the park for one last walk and hug from Stella and then he was off. Peace and love, Jay.

Interviews start tomorrow! Only a few spots are available for counselors, so be impressive!

The floor in the main room of the Carriage House is coming up. I stopped by the rubble pile and grabbed a few commemorative pieces (paperweights).



Hoodlums ripped a screen off one of the office windows and tried to smash in windows on the vans this week. If anyone has information on this incident, let us know. There is no reason to disrespect the office or this glorious park.

Jean has been enjoying the Couch to 5K program run in her home city of Danvers, by our good friend, Cheryl Marshall. Which reminds me, Beverly Recreation is sponsoring The Pear 5K on Saturday, May 1! Contact me if you are interested in becoming an official sponsor and click here to register!

Follow, comment, pass it on, enjoy!

    I'm considering the race, you'll probably end up with me at the starting line! And at the finish, hopefully....haha. I wish JC the best of luck in AZ (where I used to live, believe it or not). And I was wondering why there were so many bricks outside of the carriage house last week...are there going to be any more improvements on the building?

    Hey there, Moose! A new floor in the main hallway and in front of the new bathrooms on the first floor of the Carriage House and more support beams in the basement. That's what is DEFINITELY happening now. There has been talk of a new door/entryway and refinishing the Gallery again, but there is no start date for that stuff. :) I think that JC is going to live long and prosper in AZ. It's a smart move, but he will need to invest in some sunscreen.

    Will it still be used for storage and stuff, or is there a new plan on how to use it? Sunscreen, yes.....haha. Also some tarantula/scorpion repellant. I don't know if they make the stuff, but if they do....

    I'm gonna be in the run by the way....PUMPED. Thanks for the heads-up, I wouldn't have known about it without this here blog.
