Using Python 3.4, I installed the below geolocation package
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/geolocation-python/0.2.2
I tested it in IDLE using the code below
key = 'myGoogleKey'
google = GoogleMaps(api_key=key)
addr = 'Boston MA'
location = google.search(location=addr)
it fails at the last line, generating an SSL Error

I used this same package and code using python 2.7 in a linux environment and it worked fine. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
