May Flowers and Flags!

 That time of year when the flowers get planted and the flags go up on Stacy Boulevard.

Clear then Cloudy and a Great Fire Stop!

 The week started almost cloudless and as usual this time of the season rain. Early in the week I hear over the scanner a house fire down the street. Workers from Palazola Brothers Landscaping were working next door and spotted a small fire on the side of a house. Quick reporting by one of the employees and quick work by the Gloucester Fire Dept. prevented a tragedy.

Fire apparatus lined up on East Main Street.

Looking for fire extension.

Getting Her Ready!

 That time of year when it's time to get the boat ready. I took off the shrink wrap and added a spray shield. Much more to do. In the meantime Pics I took during the colder than normal week.

The "oversized "Mulligan" name is coming off.
