by the convivial bar crowd and busy 100 seat dining room,
Bob seems to be making culinary wishes come true nightly at
Bernardo’s. Many of his customers are regulars who return
week after week for his deeply satisfying comfort food, classic
Italian dishes and budget-friendly prices. Menu items top out

Duxbury on ice

Ice coats the rocks and the water at the harbor where very few ventured out.

Iced marshes provided a vision of beauty as the temperatures warmed to the


teens last week.

Ice and snow coat the pilings on piers all along the
coast.

Rock walls were coated


with snow and ice and
ducks swam around the
ice floes.

The powder point bridge is all dressed up in white trim displaying


a beautiful sight for all that braved the frigid weather.
