Congratulations to our Gloucester Residents who just ran the 125th Boston Marathon

The 125th Boston Marathon is in the books and we really wanted to take a moment to congratulate some Gloucester residents who ran this year. Congratulations to Jamie Marshall and Nadina and Justine Wilk! No doubt there are more runners in our community to congratulate, so please share with us if you or a loved one ran this year. Please read more to learn about Jamie Marshall and Team Speed of Light and the Light Foundation and Nadina and Justine Wilk who ran for Team End ALZ and the MA/NH Chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association.

Nadina and Justine Wilk (a dynamic duo and Mother/Daughter team) ran this year on the official course as well as last year on a self designed course around Gloucester….both times to raise a significant amount of money for Team End ALZ and for the Alzheimer’s Association MA/NH Chapter. With the words “Running for Nonie” helping them each step of the way, Nadina and Justine ran in the beautiful memory of Nadina’s mother and Justine’s Nonie who suffered from the horrible disease. You can still support them by following this link to their official GivenGain page HERE.

We’re baaaack!!! Never did I think these words would be spoken, but here we are!!  This past year has been the most challenging for every single one of us.  Although we were not able to run Boston in 2020, we did, however, raise $40K to help the fight to end Alzheimers!! We couldn’t have done this without the enormous support from all of you.  This cause is extremely near and dear to our hearts as we watched my loving Mom, and Justine’s Nonie, suffer with this horrible disease.  We just know that together we can help to find a cure and give our children a world without Alzheimers.  
We have proudly joined Team End ALZ once again and will run Boston on October 11, 2021.  Please help us to reach our goal – your support means more than you will ever know.  LETS DO THIS!!!!!!!!    Much love, Nadina & Justine XO

Jamie Marshall also ran this year as part of Team Speed of Light for the Matt Light Foundation. The Light Foundation’s charity athletes run the famed Boston Marathon to bring awareness to the work of the Light Foundation. To date, they have raised more than $400,000 for our youth leadership programs. Jamie ran alongside Danica Patrick….who is known for speed on the race track and now also along the marathon route. You can still support Jamie and the Light Foundation on Jamie’s official GivenGain page HERE

Hey 26.2 – I’m coming for you in October!  That’s right, I’m taking part in the 125th Boston Marathon to raise money for the Light Foundation.  As many of you know, I serve as an active Board member for the Light Foundation, which was founded by former NFL player Matt Light.  The funds raised will help enhance the life changing programing that continues to inspire and transform the future of so many youth year after year.

The Boston Marathon is a race like no other!   Beyond its iconic, yet challenging reputation – it brings everyday athletes (like me!), many of whom are connected to extraordinary causes, to the same road as elite, world-class athletes. Together, inspired by strength and courage we run as ONE on the same journey thru the greatest towns on earth!

Please support my personal fundraising project and help me push forward on the road ahead to the finish line!   

Let’s goooooo Team Speed of Light!
Sazeets!
Jamie

Here’s A Video Look Of Our Solo Stove Bonefire Smokeless Firepit and A $15 Off Discount Code To Use

While at our friend’s Chris and Marcy Plante house we discovered their awesome smokeless firepit- the Solo Stove Bonfire. It has a way where the inner chamber does a secondary burn so there isn’t any smoke (the main reason a lot of people don’t care for firepits is teh smoke that gets in their hair/clothes.

It’s all stainless steel and brilliantly designed.

Right now there are on super sale and on top of that once you buy one you can give referral codes for an extra $15 off on top of the super sale that they are having this weekend.-

Adventureman’s Book Now Available in the United States

I had ordered Adventureman Jamie MacDonald’s new book Running America as soon as it was released last spring but it hasn’t been available in the United States until this week. I had been looking forward to it but it was still a nice surprise to find it on my doorstep a few days ago. Of course, I immediately turned to the chapter regarding his time here in Gloucester in March 2019. And that brought up memories of that wonderful day on the boulevard. Congratulations Jamie! We still love you here across the pond in your sister city.Jamie thanks Good Morning Gloucester, Nichole Schrafft, Ray Johnson, Sheree Zizik, Mayor Romeo Theken, Cape Ann Motor Inn Loran Caputo and Brad Pierce, AND the Crow’s Nest crew!!! Obviously there were so many others instrumental in the success of this event for him and for the fund raising efforts on behalf of children’s hospitals and I am sorry I cannot name them all either but I hope you know we appreciate you all.

Sunset Dry Salvages Rockport

Hi Joey,

Mother Nature outdid herself however subtly this evening, as the very brisk autumnal winds rolled in on nightfall.

Sicilian Diocese Bans Godparents

Who do you think your godfather is? I couldn’t help change up the title of a popular TV series when I heard that a Sicilian Diocese (Catania) put a 3 year ban on godparents due to the loss of spiritual significance of the role. Also at play apparently are concerns surrounding underworld influence. Here’s a link to some further information.

This makes a person go Hmmmmm…….! Did you know your godfather well? Were your godparents active in your life? Are you a godparent? What is the role of godparents today? Has this new ban played a role in your life today?

We are not Italian but my godfather was named George and I did not know him well. He was not active in my life except I do remember him visiting us once when I was young. I think he was a college chum of my father’s. He played no spiritual role in my life, but I would wish that children had other adults in their lives that they could turn to as needed. Quote from the movie “The Godfather”: “Italians have a little joke, that the world is so hard a man must have two fathers to look after him, that’s why they have godfathers.”

I’ll kind of miss scenes like this one if such a ban becomes effective closer to home:

Grand Old Opry

I just spent a long weekend down in Nashville with seven friends. I’m so happy that we were able to fit in a trip to the Grand Old Opry. I happen to be a fan of country music, but even if you’re not, I think it is something that everyone would enjoy. The history, the stories, the tradition….it is pretty special. And, if you can watch the video that showcases some of the Opry’s members being surprised with the news of becoming a member and not get teary, we can’t be friends. Warm fuzzies for sure.

Here’s a short video that talks a bit about the tour:
