Early September morning at the Gloucester Fishermen’s Wives Memorial.
As Angela Sanfilippo, GFWA president, so eloquently said at the dedication ceremony:
"The memorial serves as a testimonial to what wives, mothers, sisters, and children of fishermen of the world have endured because their men chose to be on the water. They had no choice but to stand on rock, to be on land."
A trip around the gardens presented these bountiful images.
July 6th was a beautiful evening to take a sail on the Thomas E. Lannon and dance amongst the other schooners in Gloucester Harbor during the Gloucester Maritime Rendezvous.
On board the Lannon and the Columbia approaches.
Views of the Columbia.
The Isabella and Ardelle sail into view followed by Redbird.
Here comes the Pride of Baltimore II!
And then the dance begins!
