An immigrant boy makes Gloucester his home again
March 23rd 1954, this immigrant boy arrived in Gloucester, and made it his home.
Fourteen years later he crossed the bridge and created a new life. Forty Years later he returned to make Gloucester his home again. His parents made many sacrifices to allow him that choice, just like many parents in Gloucester’s history did for their children.
On this anniversary of our arrival, thank you Mom and Dad (Anibal and Adelina Simoes)
This story has been repeated many times, and I would love to hear more in the comments.

Freezer Down The Dock With More Stickas
Feel free to send in your sticker to me at the dock. I’ll add it to the rusty old freezer and take a picture for the pages here at GMG.

Pimp!- Panther Lamp at Bananas
Sabine at Bananas tells me that back in the day when people first started having televisions in their homes the press was telling people that they needed to have a light on in the room or they would go blind watching tv in the dark. So most people had some type of lamp on top of their big ol’ tv sets. She says the panther lamp was a very popular lamp to have.
Pimp!
