    "It’s Marblehead, an almost 400 year old fishing village on Massachusetts Bay. We have a small town but urban “walking” downtown on a spectacularly beautiful natural harbor. This is the real thing! And, it’s only a short hop to Boston, America’s intellectual capital city. If it didn’t have a cold winter, the whole world would want to live here!"
