The surest sign that spring has arrived is the first boat in the cove. Well, last week the first one went in. Good thing it wasn't the week before, when a nasty spring nor'easter came through. The float that is normally stored up on the Flatiron portion of the wharf floated away in the high tide. I understand that some folks wrestled it off the rocks and tied it up to the light pole just behind us. Glad that wasn't a boat--the last boat to break its mooring in a storm ended up on the rocks and finally was towed out of the cove, never to be repaired.
Thanks for your update. I always enjoy seeing what's going on in the cove. I now live in Michigan, but used to fish lobster and dive off the rocks at Lane's Cove.
ReplyDeleteHello from Hong Kong.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your comments on the Cove.
Noticed there is a "Duley" St.
Does anyone know why it is called Duley St. Was there a Duley family that lived there earlier or had a business there (something to do with boating/fishing??).
My grandfather was a "Duley" from Ma.
Best regards,
