We stayed in the town of Salisbury, MA., just south of the NH-MA border and is near Cape Ann. OnCape Ann we visited the towns of Gloucester and Rockport. Gloucester is an historic ship building and fishing port and also a well known artist community. It was heavily overcast on our day to visit and while there we encountered the heaviest rainstorm I have ever experienced. Within minutes the streets were turned to lakes and rivers. But we managed to see some of the area never-the -less. No photos at Rockport though. Too much rain.
