Ryan Russell Represents! In Minnesota (Don’t Ya Know)

Hey Joey, 

On a recent road trip (totaling over 3,300 miles round trip) to Minnesota, I thought I could shed some light on this little known fact about a widely know river.

The Mississippi River starts from Lake Itasca, MN when it simply flows over a merely 12 foot wide rock barrier to my left in the picture. From there, “THE MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI BEGINS TO FLOW ON IT’S WINDING WAY 2552 MILES TO THE GULF OF MEXICO.”

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Joey, I was on top of the green monsta yesterday afternoon with the band Fun. I tried to get them to hold the sticker but had no luck. This is the best I could do to represent GMG.

I should of stuck it to one of their backs and snaped a photo.

Hey Joey,
Was that you on the flight from Boston to TCI behind those Foster Grants? Brian and I rented a scooter and drove to Long Beach where all the kite surfers hang out. Since we didn’t have our own gear, Brian (being the good ex Gloucester Coast Guard guy that he is)
Improvised with, you guessed it, his GMG t shirt.

We bought Red Snapper from some fisherman working off the back of a red pick up truck (note: he did come recommended by manager of Horse Eye Jack’s, great place next to Da Conch Shack). Cooked it on our grill and It was delish,

As Buffett would say, “The Weather is Here, I Wish You Were Beautiful” – wait, you are Beautiful (or at least the Mrs. Is).

Brian says, “Keep the dry side up, and the wet side down.” I think that means don’t flip your boat over.

Signing off from Paradise,
Cindy H.

Jessica Represents! from Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands

Hi Joey,

Got to spend the past week sailing around the BVIs.  Almost caught a lobster, too.  Here’s some pictures of The Baths at Devil’s Bay, Virgin Gorda.  Time for a new sticker, I think.  This one is showing its age. 

Cheers!

Rick Terselic Represents! At The World Championship Punkin Chunkin Competition in Bridgeville, Delaware

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey:

Visited with you at Capt. Joe’s during Fiesta last summer.  I’m so thankful for all you do which allows me to keep current with happenings in Glosta.  Big shout out to Tom P. in The Fort & Erik H. in Annisquam! 

I’m fortunate to have joined the "Chunkin Up" team, and I brought my GMG sticker to World Championship Punkin Chunkin Competition in Bridgeville, Delaware this past weekend. 

Discovery Channel was there in force, so everyone will be able to see what happened later this month — usually around Thanksgiving.

Couldn’t help myself from yelling  "Chi Samiou Dute Mute? Viva San Pietro!" a few times, which lead to puzzled looks from team members… and later thinking that a pumpkin cannon built to resemble the Greasy Pole with a crew of costumed Sicilians could be a great idea for a future team?  Perhaps that deserves some consideration from Gloucester based Chunker engineers?

All the best, and keep on building the best blog on the planet!  We really do appreciate it.

Note to self: Road trip to the Punkin Chunkin Competition in Bridgeville, Delaware next year!  That looks like a whole lot of fun!!!!

Sem Sutter Represents! in Friedrichstadt Germany

I’m an avid follower of GMG.  Here’s a pic of me representing in Friedrichstadt, a North German port city that was active in the 17th c. and is now quiet and picturesque.

Best,

We Got Germany Baby!  Thanks Sem!

As an aside- this may be the first time I’ve ever heard the name “Sem”.

I wonder if Sem’s partner when first laying eyes on Sem way back in the day said “Oh I gotta get me Sem o’ dat!”

Roger Torre Represents! In Yellowstone

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey,

Just returned from a trip to Yellowstone National Park and the Grand Tetons with my brother (one of the pics) – the place is incredible – and just makes you respect the power of Mother Nature. Attached are just some of photos taken. There are pictures of bison, elk and a bear in their natural environment – along with landscapes and geysers and thermal pool – with a short video of a geyser. Hopefully you will post them on GMG
