We were on our good friends’ boat the other day with their 3 children, our two boys, and two additional cousins. As we watched all of the children laugh and chill on the bow while we made our way around the back shore of Gloucester, he said, “I love that these kids are all growing up so salty.”
Well, me too.
Today the boys asked if I would do a post in which they could talk about how they haul lobster traps. How do you say “no” to that! So, as they hauled some gear, I took a bunch of photos and they taught me what was up along the way.
This is what they had to say….
Good Morning Gloucester 
I love the salty life and great photos

I want to grow up salty, too! (A little late for me?) I remember my dad doing that when I was little but he never took me along. Thanks, boys (and mom!) now I finally know how it’s done!
