Tell me about Quincy, Massachusetts

Gee, I was going to suggest Marblehead, too, until I saw that he confused north with south. I used to live there, very near the yellow 1727 Town House shown in the website. How long have you lived there? <hijack> Do you know if the Giclé repros of the Spirit of '76 are still available at Arnould’s Gallery, across from the Town House? I just watched Midnight Mile again to see the building I used to work/shop in.

As for Quincy, I haven’t been there for many years, but I watched them rebuild some of the Old Colony rail line when the MBTA took it over. The city’s downtown had the first major parking area surrounding and integrated into the historic downtown businesses. It was called the Parkingway, probably long gone.

The missus and I bought our home two years ago, prior to that she lived on Washington Street in M’Head, about 50 yards from the old town house (and I lived in Danvers)

Are you the dude with the Dobbshead on his bumper? Or the dude I used to see almost every time I went to Haley’s to pick up a six pack?

When we got hitched back in '00 we lived in Beverly for a few years - what a shithole. No offense to anyone who lives there - there are some really, really nice parts. Just not the parts we lived in.

I’m sure Arnould’s got some repros kicking around. I think it’s his meat 'n potatos. I’ve noticed, though, the last few years his stuff has been more contemporary than traditional.
