Gloucester Smiles with Sally and Joe

A special Gloucester Smiles.

This delightful couple from New Jersey drove up to meet family and friends (and me)  in New England.  One of their favorite places was Gloucester where they had a family reunion in the house by the Good Harbor Beach bridge.  They also mentioned that  her niece who lives in Texas , and is also a Fan of the Blog, was a caretaker at the house on 24 Beach Road.

It was a special treat to meet Sally and Joe and enjoyed the batch of cookies that they gave me, which I promised to share with Joey at the dock.

Thank you for the email and  being so kind and giving  me a brighter Gloucester Smile.

Email from GMG FOB

“Hi Manny,
I’m Kevin Henry and a longtime FOB GMG.  Joey knows me and he’s posted a lot of my shots over the years.  I live in NJ and have been shooting fishermen here for years.
My girlfriend Vanessa saw your shot of these 3 gents on GMG the other day and sent it to me right away.
We were on the Asbury Park boardwalk 8-9 years ago and came across 3 gents on a beautiful Spring day.  Click !
Look closely and factor in the passage of time.  Yeah, I think so !
I’ve cropped it a bit and I’ll send the original. “
