Boy, if this was a Two-Alarm Fire…Long Beach Road the morning after
Reports were that two houses in Gloucester were on fire which is understandable as there was a beautiful attached in-law suite for this local family. Last evening’s sights, crunching sounds and smells were ferocious. The homeowners are safe. Firefighters and emergency personnel faced that challenging inferno and are ok. The house was deemed a total loss. Cape Ann Motor Inn at Long Beach provided shelter.
Here’s the link to Arianna MacNeill’s swift and fine reporting for the Gloucester Daily Times Two-Alarm Fire Ravages Gloucester home.

Memories
Nine years ago today, my dad, Ed “Pee Wee” Lowe, passed away. He was a Gloucester firefighter when all the wharf fires and huge hotel fires happened. He was small, yet feisty. He had a love/hate relationship with the Red Sox, collected everything, owned the Hesperus Bottle Shop in Magnolia, and beat me in every single pingpong game we ever played. The old firemen remember him. One cool guy. This was one of his favorite prints. Sure do miss him. —-Sharon

I’d really like to thank Mike Lindberg for sending in a bunch of the photos of the Eastern Avenue house explosion. It surely helped get the story in pics out.

Would you just look at the vinyl siding peeled away from the next door neighbor’s house? I’m guessing we’re lucky more people weren’t injured.

Anyone that doesn’t think being a Gloucester Firefighter is tough work is nuts!
