Jack on the radio/Internet

Hi everyone,

I just thought that I would pass on the listening info for anyone interested in catching one of my broadcasts on the air........ during baseball season you can hear the games locally on 1510 AM (The Zone) as well as on the Internet at www.northshorespirit.com (there is a link directly on the front page that takes you to the live stream).

During the winter months you can catch the games at www.merrimackathletics.com .

My complete schedule can be found on my homepage at http://www.johnrleahy.com/about.htm

I wish you happy listening.

I for one cannot wait to get down there to see a reception. I was down there when the plans for the studio were just being put into place. I can imagine what it must look like now. One of these days, I swear I am going to drive down and pop in on a reception. Please show Jim and Vikki your support for their life's work. I am proud to see how far they have come!!

FAMILY PICNIC

A family picnic reminder- the 2007 edition of the Leahy picnic will take place at NANTASKET BEACH in Hull on Saturday, July 28. Y'all know the drill- look for the American flag on the beach and that is where everyone will be camped out. You will all be in my thoughts that day, and if you all tune in to 1510 AM between 6-9 PM I will give you all a shout out! (fifth inning of the game). Have fun!!

Pictures from Texas

We got to have a mini-reunion here in Texas at the end of May. Joining us for Spencer's HS graduation celebration were John & Pat, and Larry & Helen.

Memories of Nana

Does anyone have any stories or memories of Nana they'd like to keep alive? Any photos? I would be interested in hearing your thoughts. I did a game in Somerville this past Monday and drove by the old house at Partridge Ave. and it still looks the same, same multi- colored stained glass window still there, Piro Printing still at the top of the hill. It brought back some memories for sure!

Long live Nana's memory.
