Anybody know who's in the picture? We love to learn about our community's past
It's always fun to explore the past and our friends at The Gabber have been doing that once a month this year to help celebrate the 60th anniversary of St. Pete Beach as well as the 100th anniversary of the building that houses the Gulf Beaches History Museum. The picture above accompanied a recent article about Frank T. Hurley, Jr. (in the picture), who worked as a reporter for the Evening Independent and the St. Petersburg Times after a stint in the military during World War II. Junior wrote a couple of books about Pass-a-Grille history. They're still in print and you can get them at the museum gift shop. If this piques your interest at all, we suggest you read The Gabber article, then hot foot it down to the museum to get those books.
