Sun-San Surfers At Larsen’s
After a fantastic breakfast at Sugar Mag’s with the family on my last day off for the year, the Mrs and I were cruising up and down beautiful downtown Gloucester when I suddenly lost track of her and Snoop Maddie Mad.
The girl at Larsen’s called out to me and told me that they were inside trying on some shoes. Thank goodness. I thought they had been abducted.
Anyway the Mrs spotted these old school sandals for the girls which come to find out were worn by Suri Cruise. So we got the pink ones (surprise) for the Bean and Snoop Mad. They are made really well and can be worn in the salt water and at the beach. Video coming at 2PM

I have no egrets.
In the 19th and early part of the 20th century, some of the world’s egret species were endangered by relentless hunting, since hat makers in Europe and the United States demanded massive numbers of egret plumes and breeding birds were killed in locations all around the world.
