Gloucester, The Inn and More Tails

: Wife and Mother looking towards the Sea

We spent another great night at The Linden Tree Inn and of course we had more Lobster for dinner!!! When the lobster is 4.99 per pound it is had to pass up!!! Riding into Goucester you can help but look back in history and the life of the “Long Liners”. The Fishermans Memorial” is truly amazing. During the years before the advent of dependable weather forecasting the number of deaths at sea was incredible. The McDonald family alone has lost 132 family members due to storms in the North Atlantic.
A great place to visit, but we had to move on. We left Goucester and are now in Woodstock, New Hampshire. This part of New Hampshire received a tremendous amount of rain from Irene. Fortunately we have not had to detour too much, but the damage from flooding and rushing water is very evident.
I am having upload issues so pics will follow tomorrow.
