Linda Morse sent in this pic she took back in November of 07.
At first glance it simply looks like a cloudy day that someone took a picture of a wave. But when you look a little more closely you can see that the wave looks like the silhouette of man. Linda must have submitted this picture four or five times and to be honest I thought she was a crazy fan of the blog that took some random picture of the ocean, but I didn’t realize how much the pic did look like a man’s face.
Sorry Linda, lol. Now I get it! Linda sent me a beautiful photo album of her work and she really is a good photographer.

It’s amazing how they lift expensive boats in and out of teh water like toys. I’d be scared shitless that a strap would break or the boat would slip out and come crashing down. The boys must know what they’re doing though because you never hear of a mess up and they put tons of boats in and out of the water every year.
Could you imagine being at the controls while a million dollar boat was in the straps? Yikes!

House Explosion On Eastern Ave , originally uploaded by captjoe06.
I was sitting in the office when the whole building shook. I exclaimed to Pete Mondello and Johnny Herrick “What The Hell Was THAT?” Turns out there was a house explosion on Eastern Ave just past Jeff’s Variety going toward Rockport.
Hope the folks are ok. Say a prayer.
