Frances takes Gloucester; Parents shiver

Mark needed a little study break, so we headed up to Gloucester, MA, which is pronounced "Glos-ter" or "Glaw-stah," depending on how native you are.


It may look familiar from the movie "The Perfect Storm." I have an aunt and uncle who used to live here. They now live in Florida, which says a lot about Gloucester. To summarize: cold fishermen.



The cold didn't stop Frances, though. She just kept right on walking, with some help from her dad.

We got a couple nice photos, despite the cold and a little person who would rather walk than hold still any day of the week.

This photo turned out smaller than I'd hoped, but Mark is giving Frances a little kiss. I like this photo.

And then we high-tailed it back to our cozy apartment.
