A very loving family who now live in Cranston Rhode Island, but originally lived in Brooklyn New York.  We spoke at length about the Italian history in Gloucester.  She was very out spoken and said she is in a mixed marriage, she is Sicilian and he is from mainland Italy. They were headed on a whale watch at Seven Seas.  A wonderful encounter from a very colorful family.

Creating a 360° Image for Google Earth

These two gentlemen were creating a 360° Image for Google Earth of Gloucester’s Fisherman’s Memorial.   Photos were taken of the memorial every 4 inches.  I estimated that it took them approximately 1 1/2 hours to complete the task.  They are sub contractors for Google Earth, and the images they took may appear in about a month on Google Earth.

O’Shea Family Reunion

IMG_6807 A very energetic group from Florida, Ohio, New Jersey, and several other States.  The photo below only has a few of the 41 members that embarked on Cape Ann to celebrate with “Ma”, Lillian O’Shea (88) of Rockport Massachusetts.  She is the mother of 8 children, 4 boys, 4 girls, which accounts for the large group.  Some were wearing their reunion motto for 2017, “Our Family Doesn’t Suffer from Insanity, We Kind of Enjoy It!!”
