The Tug is...

Gone.

CVS will be taking over the tugs spot on the Buzzards Bay rotary soon.

What do you think?

I hate to see the landmark go and it just reaffirms my opinion of cvs

Just Plain Sucks

America the Strip Mall.

Hate to see stuff like that go.
That stuff like this happens.

Talked with a customer of mine today,he was saying how everywhere, is starting to look the same. Pick any exit of any highway, same strip malls over and over. Old houses being knocked down and charachterless boxes being built.
Even the McMansions being built, are cookie cutter fugly.

No wonder, he just passed papers today on his house in town, and is moving to the middle of Maine this weekend, bought an old antique farmhouse, and barn that has been renovated, 15 acres, for a third of what he sold his place here for.. says ya can't even make 10 bucks an hour there, but, no bills, or mortgage, a much lower cost of living, and money in the bank, he don't look worried....
third guy this week from my town I talked to that is doing something similar to this, aome going north, some going south... Cape, and most of Mass., from what I have read, is losing it's lifelong, working class... friggin sad.

I used to tell my kids, when they were little. that that tug was the one their Grandpa ran. There's even a statue of him in the pilothouse. And it's right where he left it , High and Dry! When they told him excitedly about it, he knew who the culprit was. Gonna miss it, reminds me of them when they were very young.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
