Independent photographer Paula Muller was on hand Tuesday evening to capture the first MHD Cruise-In of the season at Devereux Beach, where the parking lot filled with everything from a 1991 Nissan Figaro nicknamed “Little Miss Sunshine” to a 1955 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III, a 1967 VW van, a Lamborghini and a 2025 Ferrari Purosangue. The monthly gathering brought car owners, spectators and a few four-legged passengers together for a relaxed evening of polished chrome, open hoods and seaside conversation.
Among the vehicles on display were Mark Corriveau of Salem’s 2021 Dodge Durango Hellcat, a 750-horsepower vehicle, TJ Russell of Marblehead’s 1955 Chevrolet 3100 pickup and a Polaris Slingshot that turned heads in the Devereux Beach parking lot. Be sure to check out Chris Stevens’ preview for more on the Cruise-In series and the monthly events rolling into Marblehead this season.

Three cheers for Marblehead democracy, which achieved a satisfactory outcome Tuesday without the help of this local voter.
Registering for a mail-in ballot was the easy bit. Knowing I was going to be in Scotland on June 9, I strolled into the Town Clerk’s Office
