Hi Joey,
I was posing to represent on the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond when this friendly Scotsman inserted himself in the picture and then took off up the pier without a word!!

Hi, Joey!
I’m in Belarus with the "New Thing" ministry I lead here.
These are photos from a distribution of humanitarian aid to the poor in Minsk.
We distribute about 200 tons a year of donated food and goods here in the former USSR.
GMG readers might enjoy following along thru my photo reports — here’s a link to the first:

Dear Joey,
We had the pleasure of meeting Fred and visiting his store back in August. As promised, we wanted to pass along the picture from Peru. Fanony is representing Gloucester…South American style! The picture is taken in the city of Lima and the background is from "Surco Pueblo", which is the old Surco (name of the district). The location is well known for its vineyards and wine products.
Best regards,
Marshall and Fanony
Gail McDonald and Betty Represent in Rockport!
Gail is breakfast chef at the Emerson Inn by the Sea (on right) in Pigeon Cove, Rockport. And this is her car, "Betty," so named because of it’s CarLashes, and resemblance to the 1930’s animated cartoon star Betty Boop. If you haven’t heard, Gail’s Sunday Brunch at the Emerson is unbelievable. Don’t miss it, it ends for the season on November 1st, although the kitchen is open year ’round for dinner. Great place!
Hi Joey,
Bet the sticka hasn’t been on a throne before – it’s sitting on Mary of Guise’s (Mary Queen of Scots mother) regent throne at Stirling Castle where Mary the infant queen was being protected from abduction or assassination.

Hi Joey,
Here is a "represent" picture of (left to right) me (Laurie Strickland), Lorraine, Steve, and Heather (whom I’m visiting) representing at the Eagle & Child Pub last night in Staveley, England in the northern Lakes Region. We’ll send more as we tour Scotland!

Love it- Jolly ole England!
that sticka’s been everywhere!
Hi Joey,
My family and I recently returned from a fabulous trip to Sao Miguel, Azores. Attached is a picture of Jim and Odin representing near Lomba de Sao Pedro (meaning the Hill of Saint Peter), which we thought was appropriate for the Gloucester followers! I have included a few more pictures of the beautiful scenery. It is an absolutely amazing place!
All the best,
Mendy Garron
Finally, we are back in the right time again. Travelling back in time (going westward) is not a problem, literally speaking. But the other direction “screws” the master clock.
The attached picture was taken outside the town hall were Anita works. Note Landskrona`s city arms behind. Feel free to share the photo with our friends over there, and GMG of course.
We keep in touch / Lars
Hey Joey. We’ve met a few times, I’m Kate Lufkin, Laurie Lufkin’s sister. Your wife also went to high school with my sister Sarah.
Anyway, I just took a trip to Zimbabwe and Mozambique to volunteer at an HIV clinic for a few weeks (but I had some fun while I was there, too!) and Laurie reminded me to bring along my sticker…So, here they are! The first one is me on the campus of Africa University (where I was based out of for teaching. I was considered faculty…wtf??) Same with the 2nd and the 3rd. The 5th and 6th are at Victoria Falls, one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen in my life…Finally the last one is on a boat cruise I took on the Zambezi river. It was pretty awesome! I saw elephants, crocs, hippos, you name it!
Feel free to use all or none of them, but I thought I’d send them along.
Thanks for your blog, I love it!
Kate

Niles now rides with me….
He may come meet Homey one day.
Lisa
Joey Edit:
The question I have is how exactly Niles got his name?
Was there an illicit sexual encounter on Niles Beach which led to the demon spawn shown in this picture? Half Rubber Duck/Half Penguin? You decide.
