When we were in Maine in July for my mom's 80th birthday we visited the Wyeth Center at the Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland. Have you seen it? It's an incredible collection (three generations).

ReplyDeleteshoobie?
ReplyDeletedoobie doo?
Shoobie is an old and unflattering (south) Jersey Shore term. Meant to describe city-folk "visitors" from Philly. I think I recall O Docker saying that his family used to vacation in Ventnor for a week. If he's still listening he may want to comment. Since he wasn't just "down for the day" he wouldn't have been one, though.
ReplyDeleteThe derivation of the word refers to the habit of those bringing their lunch to the beach in a shoe box, typically arriving with pale skin (and leaving burnt red), black sox and otherwise awkward-looking attire.
You get the picture.
Then would you clear up the term, "Bennie", the term used by central coast Jerseyans from Point Pleasant southward to say, Seaside?
