Jamie O’Hara Lugs Lobster Traps Up The Ladder While Ed Collard Spots and David Brooks Places

From Jamie O’Hara-

I want to thank everyone who helped out in building the tree on both Friday and Saturday. Friday, well Friday was not a good weather day but as Gregg B. Smith said, it was like hauling the traps at sea. Today was sunny and blowing a gale. Thank you to the nice lady who brought us hot chocolate and donuts. They both hit the spot. A special thank you to Hiltz Disposal and Lonny for their help. We could not have completed the tree today with out the “roll off”. Lonny was great helping out. The Captains who donated the use of their traps, Thank you. Happy Birthday Ed C. David and Daniel, great job. I would go into any project with you guys. Jeff W, well Jeff is the leader and this 10 years of experience is visible in the construction of the tree. Thank you to the Building Center for the use of their truck as well as the donation of top secret materials. For the people of Rockland, thank you for the “battle”, it is much fun. We wish Rockland a very Merry Christmas.

40 Pages Of GMG Video Archives

When looking for an old video I kept clicking through the pages to see some of the old classics. Back when we started I hosted most of teh videos on Blip.TV. I’ve since switched to YouTube as they make it easier for me to cross post the videos to GMG.
But if you click on the picture below you can check back in the archive and see the huge amount of different Gloucester subjects that have been covered in these pages.

If I stopped blogging today there would be a huge legacy of videos and coverage of our City that it would stand up on it’s own as a documentary resource.

Click the pic to check it out- 40 pages of videos with 12 videos on each page.

MAC Fitness Gloucester Walkthrough Video Part II- The Locker Rooms

Alrighty folks-you’ve eaten your way through Thanksgiving- now it’s time to get toned up for the rest of the Holiday season.  I’m psyched to work out at the new MAC Fitness on Whistlestop Way.  Maybe this winter we can get a group going up in the mornings for group workouts to motivate each other.

Every square inch of the place is brand spanking new.  Let em know you heard about them on Good Morning Gloucester if you sign up.

MAC Fitness Gloucester Walkthrough Video Part I

Yesterday I toured the about-to-be opened MAC Fitness facility and got some video for you guys as they put the finishing touches on.

The fitness center is  located on Whistlestop Way behind the train station and The Azorean restaurant.

Every single piece of equipment is brand spanking new state of art fitness equipment.  Never Used- Never Sweated Upon- Brand New.  Individual tvs on the treadmills and stairmasters- this is quite the facility.

Here’s a heads up- They are running a no join up fee program through the end of this month and it’s only going to cost $39 a month to join.  The locker rooms have  individual shower stalls and wood paneled lockers which are available for daily use or long term rental.

Now I’m going to start going in January once things slow down here at the dock.  If you go and join up make sure you mention you heard about it from your boy Joey Ciaramitaro at Good Morning Gloucester.  (they’ll tune me up with a small referral fee),  it would be much appreciated 🙂

Rockland Lobster Trap Tree vs Gloucester Lobster Trap Tree Ed Collard Calls It Like He Sees It

Sawyer Free Library Art Auction Exhibit Video- How It Works Video

There are works by Jeff Weaver and Bittman that are going for fractions of their worth.

My advice?  Get down there and bid!  You might just steal something.  The Live Auction sounds like a blast as well-

Gloucester Monthly Parking Tag Info From City Treasurer Jeffrey Towne Video

When I found out about these monthly parking tags last week I was intrigued.

I’d never heard about them, never seen them before and there was no information about them on the City Of Gloucester website.  So what did I do?  What any good investigative schlep would do- I went to the source- City Hall and got myself an interview with THE MAN- City Hall Treasurer Jeffrey Towne.

Jeffrey assures me that by the time I have this video posted the information will be available on the City of Gloucester Website- Sweet!  Results!

FEVER PITCH- AND THEN THERE WERE TWO!!!

If you haven’t watched any of the videos thus far from the GMG Farm Bar and Grille Hot Wing Challenge you owe it to yourself to look at these final ones.  It is where things reach climactic levels filled with suspense, drama, chaos and the conclusion.
