The Quarterdeck
Hours: Thurs-Mon 10-5.
Hours may be reduced during Storms
Flood Tides or Ice on the Marsh
We're still in the off-season in Scituate. Soon enough there will be the bright sun of summer, the baking heat of the sidewalks and the the merry clinking of the wind cartwheeling through the rigging of every pleasure boat in the harbor. Shops will eke every hour from the day, ice cream cones will melt in every grubby kid's clenched fist and someone will get their first kiss under the whirling lights of the carnival rides on Cole Parkway.
But for now, we are still wary of storms and flood tides and ice on the marsh, and stand ready to adjust our schedules accordingly.
This is New England, after all.
Consider this my love letter to my home.

And you just won't find a sign like that anywhere else. For the moment I think we are definitely safe from the ice! Today was an awesome day : )
