Magnolia 525 Tavern Fundraiser a Big Success!

Posted on by Pat D

A fundraiser for the O’Maley field hockey team was held last week at the Magnolia 525 Tavern on Lexington Ave and it was a huge success. We stopped by for some of the fun and to help support the team as well as the local restaurant. It was easy to make the online reservations or you can call. The food was yummy: I had the Asian Short Ribs and Jim had the Eggplant Parm special. The strawberry shortcake was a sweet way to end the evening. The place was hopping especially with so many team members and their families in attendance. Special shout out to Josie Martell for organizing the event. If you want to offer a fundraiser, this is something to consider!

Woolly Bear Forecast (Reprise) — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

I posted this on GMG Saturday afternoon. It was followed by a very large posting that slid it and others down the page, and shortly off the recent postings on the live website. Joey approved a re-posting, but apologies if this is a repeat.

Woolly Bear Folklore:

“The longer the woolly bear’s black bands, the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the winter will be. … If the head end of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold.”

You be the judge.  Also, I always wondered if they turned into beautiful moths or butterflies (see first two photos).

This Woolly Bear was out for a walk with us – head at upper left
He’ll turn into an Isabella Tiger moth (thank you Internet)
A Red-tailed Hawk hovering over its dinner on the Audubon land
Speaking of dinner – is this a keeper?
Another walking companion
Can you still see me?
And speaking of deer – the elegant visitor ‘Deer Dancer’
A Turkey Vulture scouting for road kill, or something fresher
This month is apple-picking season
The Turtles’ favorite rock is finally visible, but tight for a three-some (see 3 heads)
Looks like a good year for Monarchs assembling for their flight to Mexico
Gulls lit by the setting sun
And another impressive sunset over Lighthouse Cove mooring field

New Nia Routine: Trio: The music of Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt

Finally (PHEW!) It is done. I hope it’s worth the wait 🙂

I wanted to explore the nine arms of movement in Nia with this routine. We will move to these great songs by legendary Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt (my idol). Each song reflects the movements, or my interpretations, of Yoga, Tai Chi (with some help from Nia student, Amy Shapiro, Taekwando, Aikido, Interpretive Dance, Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais Movement and Jazz. You may think its weird to put Jazz to this genre but hey it works!!

Here’s a preview of a few of my favorites for you to listen to to get in the mood.

You Don’t Knock, Mr. Sandman and Farther Along

Moving to Heal

Moving to Heal Nia is a slower, less intensive class with less standing and more done…
