Jenn Woods didn't know the name of the building that features the window array shown in last week's 'Where.' But she knew it was across East Front Street from the Welsh Farms store, and she beat another regular, Bob Colmorgen,...

Remember: Nothing makes a Red Bank friend happier than to hear "I saw you on Red Bank Green!"

And, we're back... to a Colmorgen win. Those Colmorgen Kids don't stay off the podium for long. Of course they have a key advantage. Brother Bob spent 27 years in the Red Bank Police Department, many of them pounding his...

Breaking out of an extended slump, Jenn Woods beat a pack of 'Where' respondents to the keyboard last week when she was the first to identify the sign with the interrupted leg. Frankly, we were astonished that so many readers...

The late auto-parts sculptor Jim Gary had his fans. Several respondents to last week's 'Where' not only knew the location of the distinctive piece shown — it's in front of a house on Ocean Avenue in Sea Bright, just south...

Last week's 'Where' brought a stampede of responses from readers hoping to be the first to identify a business that must be near and dear to their hearts. Yes, it's the Little Silver Family Pharmacy, a Church Street emporium that's...

With brother Carl away on vacation, Bob and eternally young Kathy Lou Colmorgen were deprived of their customary wheelman last week. It's Carl, you see, who likes to jump in his car to hunt down or confirm suspected 'Where' locations...

Well, we finally found a location that the Colmorgens couldn't immediately identify. But it's further testimony of their 'Where' prowess that nobody else did, either. The Colmorgen brothers, Carl and Bob (minus sister Kathy Lou, who must still have been...

Last week's 'Where,' like so many before it, was like riding a bike for the Colmorgen kids. As they correctly identified with their first-in entry, the picture showed an open-air display stand at Shrewsbury Bicycles on Route 35. Jenn Woods,...

Maybe we should change the name of this feature to 'Colmorgens Corner.' Need we say more? Yes, we do. We should note that latest location correctly identified by the you-know-whos was Bains Better Day Market on East River Road in...

The seemingly unstoppable Colmorgen kids — siblings Bob, Carl and Kathy Lou — triple-teamed the latest 'Where.' This is one avid trio. Now we hear that even young Mother Colmorgen has caught 'Where' fever from her children, none of whom...

Last week's 'Where' turned out to be a twin, or maybe a triplet. A number of readers were quite certain that the outdoor bays full of decorative gravel and mulch shown in the photo were at Ryser's Landscape Supply on...

The shiny metal spheres shown in last week's 'Where' frustrated a good number of readers, we think, judging by some comments we heard on the street and the fact that not a soul ventured an email guess as to their...

Gotta love those Colmorgen boys, right? The white-hot streak that Bob & Carl have been on in recent months is rather impressive, one must admit. It continued when they turned in the only entry that correctly identified last week's 'Where'...

Reader Ernest Anemone was the first to get last week's not too obscure pic, which showed a detail of the St. Nicholas Orthodox Church on at Pearl and Wall Streets. At one time, the structure was the home of the...

Word on the street is that the Colmorgen boys, Bob & Carl, were running all over town on hunches as they tried to figure out where they'd seen last week's location. In which case Bob, who lives in Eatontown, probably...

Bob Colmorgen did it again, identifying last week's shot as a boarded-up door at the former Anderson Brothers cold-storage warehouse at Monmouth Street and Bridge Avenue. Bob, a longtime Red Bank fireman in who continues to volunteer though he now...

Reader David Wilson was the first to identify last week's image: a statue at the entrance to Parker-Sickles Park in Little Silver. Bob Colmorgen got it, also. On a hunch, enroute from the family homestead to his residence in Eatontown,...

We have a winner, and her last name does not begin with Colmorgen. Michele Lombard was the first of two Red Bankers to correctly identify last week's painted smile as the emblem from, well, The Perfect Smile dental practice on...

We had just one response to last week's picture, and damn if it wasn't yet another correct one from Carl Colmorgen. That's five Colmorgens in a row, for those keeping count. How is it that a guy can return to...

Folks, we have our first 'Where' grand slam, with the fourth Colmorgen family member in a row taking a victory trot around the bases. Carl Colmorgen of Oakland Street was the first reader to identify last week's image, which showed...
