Then-- would you mind terribly if I asked you where you like to spend your time? When you're not diligently curing what ails Gloucester, that is! Do you have a favorite spot around town?

...Honestly speaking, it's difficult to name one, but that's because of how much time I've spent in only a select few places. Still, if I had to name one, I'm rather fond of the beaches - there's one that when the water's low has the most marvelous tidepools. Though I'd say they're all worth exploring.
