Sometimes a walk on the breakwater connects you to some history.

I met Steve Macy, who is in the area on a business trip, he decide to come out and visit Eastern Point Lighthouse where his grandfather,  Francis Macy was the lighthouse keeper from 1931-1941.  Steve’s father lives out on the west coast and hopefully he will see this post.  I provided Steve with a GMG Sticker.

David Lufkin, our Cadet Colonel took the pictures.  Rick Gonsalves and I put it together.  My cousin John Zarrella is our official Chef (Woburn High class of 71).  Rick, who wrote 2 books on special teams and kickers has worked at all levels of football instructing kickers even at the NFL level was able to borrow the Superbowl trophy that Brady carried in the parade so we could hold it and have pictures taken.  We’ve been doing these post reunion cookouts for the last 3 five year reunions.  This is the only one that we didn’t have an actual reunion the night before.  Despite the threat of weather and the lack of publicity, we got 30 classmates, including Marc and Ann Crandlemire, who came from Georgia, and Jack and Barb (Murphy) Hansen, who came from Ohio.  Check out my Facebook page to read more about it.  Thanks.

I always enjoy a walkout  on the breakwater, meeting people,and watching the Schooners Ardelle and the Lannon sailing in the harbor.

Gloucester is Great.
