A Welcome Addition to Downtown Amesbury

By: Pamela Leavey On: August 8, 2009 at 12:06 am

I moved home to Massachusetts two months ago and have been enjoying settling in and reminiscing with old friends while balancing my business, a part time job and my 3 blogs. Whew… my plate is way too full.

I’m living in Amesbury, the next town over from my hometown, Newburyport. I love Amesbury. It’s a beautiful little city with lot’s of great countryside and the Merrimack River which ambles along towards its final destination, the Atlantic Ocean.

Okay… enough rambling. I read in the local newspaper tonight, that there’s a new bookstore that just opened in downtown Amesbury. I love a good bookstore. I can’t wait to check it out.

The Mystix: Down to the Shore

Now that I am back in my hometown area, I am looking forward to getting out and seeing some of the awesome local music talent that has been around Newburyport for decades, like the Mystix:

The Mystix have been called a “regional roots super group” by the Boston Phoenix. Two of the players in the Mystix are old friends (Jo Lilly and Bobby Keyes) and I’ve heard they are the act to catch in the area.
