Speaking of Alcos, here are models of all the RS-11s that MEC owned - both of them MEC 801 and 802 as they looked around 1980

Motley beat me by a minute, so it's switchers

Folks doing the barbeque thing at the Memorial Park, also fishing and just hanging out with family.

The cannon probably is not safe for fireworks, but is there in case of pirates or a herd of stampeeding lobsters come ashore

More 4th or Canada Day scenes!
