Way out at the northern end of Route 128 lies Cape Ann. Autumn, with its spectacular colors, leads the easily swayed to believe in the endless, carefree days of the season just past. Here in winter the Fisherman's Statue wears his snow-covered slicker to ward off the biting winds of blizzards. Trees often dress in their winter whites well into the middle of spring. But at last the sun soaks up the lingering greyness, and heralds the way for the cabin-fevered to join in the cries of "Viva San Pietro", seine boat races, the Greasy Pole, the Thunder Bolt, and a big Italian sausage smothered with onions and peppers. Summer!
