| Virginia Marie Crew Unloading Fish at the Sandwich Marina |
I knew Mom was feeling better when she said that she wanted to go to Dunkin' Donuts before we went for our ride. Fortified with our Boston Cream Donuts and Iced Coffee we watched the crew of the Fishing Vessel Virgina Marie unload her catch.
It was impossible to see what they had in the boxes, but it certainly smelled like fish! There was a truck waiting on the end of the pier to take the fish to market immediately. It is hard work carry heavy boxes of fish. The temperature today is about 80 degrees and the guys were working up a sweat.

Mom reminded me that her first job was working at a fish processing plant at this same marina. Locals called it the Freezer. It was a rough and tumble job for a sheltered Italian girl. She worked there for two summers.
