Hi Joey,
I don’t know if you only include Gloucester residents in the ‘GMG represents’ photos.
Anyway I am not a resident, but I was on vacation there in 2009 and still read your blog every day. Will definitely be coming back sometime!
Here is a photo of me at Lake Louise in the Rockies this Summer with my GMG sticker.
If you can’t put this on the blog I will understand completely.
Regards & keep up your good work

Air Tran In Flight Magazine Photographer Jessica Scranton Represents!
Yesterday afternoon Jessica Scranton came down the dock to take some pictures for a piece on Gloucester that I was interviewed for which will appear in an upcoming issue of Air Tran’s in-flight Go Magazine.
They will be featuring Gloucester as a unspoiled destination for great dining and real character. Should do great things for the G-Town as there are a ton of people who read those magazines and they are obviously travelers.

Hi Joe. My name is Riley and I am a Fawnaquin Great Dane puppy. My new Mom and Dad have told me how Great G-town is and they promised to take me there this fall to meet all of their friends. Honest, they promised. All of their other Great Danes have made it out there and even went on Whale Watches. I will stop by and see you when we get into town. My Dad said it’s time to have a COLD ONE and meet his G-Town family.

GMG representing in San Diego!
http://www.goodmorninggloucester.com
Hi Joey,
My sister and neice were in San Diego last week, so I gave them a sticker and asked them to take some pics. I couldn’t decide which was the best pic, so here are 5 to choose from. By the way, my neice, is en route to the Philippines for a 2.5 year stint in the Peace Corps. Once she is settled, she will take some pictures with the sticker on whatever island she is assigned to. stay tuned!
Best regards,
Valerie Marino
