My day starts out SO GREAT after I have my a.m. coffee and begin reading GMG. Thank-you so much!!!!!
I saw Dave from Main Street taking pictures of the GHS girls softball team. Where can I view his pictures?
I’ll have Daves great pictures up as soon as the Mrs gets back from NYC. She took the laptop computer that reads the CDs that David gets his pictures to me on. ASAP I promise
Thank you so much for that. What a talent Dave has. My niece is #7. They have had it tough this season, and they try so hard! These pictures mean the world to us! I will thank Dave for his valuable time the next time I see him!
We have a bunch more coming in the next few days. David will appreciate your comments

I am very interested in building your fenway park model. My sons and I are all redsox fans and we though this was awsome when we saw it. We were wondering if you would be willing to share your block requirements and blueprint so we can order our own set from Lego.
Thank you very much for your consideration and time. Philip Jones
Philip, I didn’t build that Lego Fenway. it was on display at City of Palms Park in Fort Myers.
Did the person who made it have an email adress
If not could you send me some good pics of it
If not could you send me some good pics of it to my email

The site is a big part of my day….
We went to a gloucester concert at the Universalist Church on Friday night. The group is called
Overboard and they were really amazing…
Acapella – fun – only $10 and they are going to do
a concert for the next three nights.
I don’t do this often but ….this is something
not to be missed. The founder of the group has a Gloucester girlfriend and told some fun stories about
how much he loves her Gloucester grandpa.

Hi,
Does anyone at Good morning Gloucester have a clue of who all the winners of the Horribles Parade were. My daughter was Pippi Longstocking and we would like to know if she won or not. No posts yet in the GD Times, and I can not get a hold of Al Kipp the Parade Chair, any help? Please get back to me by e-mail. My name is Caroline Connolly.
thanks
I don’t know but I saw a trophy in the window at Glazed so I assume they won an award. The Annie Float was great! If someone gets me the list I’ll be sure to post it.
Hi my name is Kim I am the owner of The Studio Lounge & Deck on Rocky Neck Ave. I’d like to invite you down to The Studio for a meal and talk about doing an interview with myself about the restaurant. So many people don’t realize that I have a deck out back that seats 121 ppl. plus a cabana bar that seats about 15. I saw your interview with Joe Thomas my former Piano player that now owns Guiseppes and I thought it was great. So i thought I would write to you and invite you down to The Studio. Thanks, Kim Hope to hear from you!
Joey
Just a fantastic community service you do for our Gloucester. Love the blog and keep up the good work!
Now, if you could only come down to Rocky Neck this evening to capture Divine and John Waters distributing flyers for next week’s Beaux Arts Ball that would be *the* best.
your fan,
Sabine-
I’m so in the weeds right now but I promise to do our best
Not that I’m predjudice but the GMG does incredible things for Gloucester
Dear Capt. Joey, It was great meeting you this morning! Many thanks for the sticker! Will send you a photo of it in front of Michigan Stadium. You asked me what I liked about GMG, and I wanted to let you know that it is like a mini-vacation every morning! Thanks again! Linda
Hi I’m looking for info on the Kevin Riley Disney Character Breakfast at the Elks. I thought you might know more about it. I want to forward the info to the Manchester Mothers Club. I know Melanie Wall facebooked us about it. With limited info. Thanks Kendra at Double Exposure.
What’s going in the new building with the fantastic view? Thanks.
Hello. I live in Vermont however I was born and raised in Boston (newton) and “I love gloucester”! Will be moving there soon. Anyway I read GMG daily & love it also. I was wondering if Stella & Chester have been found ?, the two pups that went missing on Nov. 16 on Good Harbor Beach ? Thank You.
Hi Joey
where are you for Christmas this year?
We love the blog here in Boulder
I’m your biggest fan west of the Mississippi
I was in gloucester last summer visiting my good friend Chuck Mahoney
Next time I’m there I’ll come to the dock and say hi
Great site. We spend summers in Cape Ann – have loved the area for years and just discovered this blog. Well done. I look forward to coming back. I did a post on Rocky neck this summer while in Rockport. http://communicatingacrossboundariesblog.com/2011/07/26/rocky-neck-americas-oldest-working-art-colony/
Hello Joey,
Where would I find the complete recipe for pumpking cannolis? How much vanilla, etc.?
Does Felicai have a moist recipe for the “S” cookies?
Thank you,

Its a cool tree and that’s a reply all the way from scotland
Joe, you are doing a great job. Right on about BofA and condolences on the loss of Charlie, a great guy!
Joe,
You and the ‘Community Built…’ Gloucester Lobster Trap tree have our vote. We are traveling north up to Houlton, Maine on Christmas Eve day and were looking to stop at one of the seaport towns to see a lobster trap tree.
Both the beauty of the Gloucester Community Built tree, the spirit and love that went into it, and the utter and unquestionable fairness of the on-line poll have convinced us (wink, nod) that we must stop in Gloucester to see the tree.
What a great tongue and cheek blog.
See you then.
Merry Christmas
Thank you…

Joey, Are you able to mail the t- shirts you have for sale?
I can but they won’t be in time for Christmas and we don’t have many left. First come first served.
My Dad purchased the Oceanside Hotel at Magnolia in 1931. I was 6 at the time. He kept it until 1946. Dad had no idea how to operate a hotel, having most previous experience in the building business. When the 1929 depression hit he was out of building and just happened to acquire the Oceanside by what he called “trading cats for dogs.” He and Mom learned quickly, and within a few years a guest suggested that they journey down to Thomasville, GA and have a look a winter resort inn there. They liked what they saw and purchased the inn. Each year for the next 11 years they thrived on the resort hotel business–the Oceanside at Magnolia in the summer, and the Three Toms Inn at Thomasville in the winter, Needless to say I cam to really love growing up in the business. Then came WW II and changes in all family’s lives.
Magnolia and the Oceanside, in particular, will always remain as a fond memory.

Hello Joe, Just came upon my note to you as you published it. I’m approaching the completion of nine decades, and those early times–while fading a bit–still comprise a great part of “the good times” of my life. Thanks for the job you do in keeping those times alive for many of us!
