Azorian Styled Garden Created here in Gloucester
Emidio Silva created a special garden modeled after many gardens on the island of Pico Azores. This creation was created right here in Gloucester Massachusetts. The video was created by Antonio Faria a very talented videographer of life in the Azores and now visiting the US. The video is in Portuguese but you can see all the love Emidio and his wife have put into this gem of a garden here in Gloucester.
We also were very fortunate to have Emidio give us a personal tour of his garden.
Enjoy the video by Antonio Faria.

Early Signs of a Coming Storm
I was at the Beauport for a luncheon yesterday and watched out the window as the waves started to roll in. They were still little….but they were coming.

Half Moon Beach on a Fall Day
It’s a little bit lonely down there on days such as we’ve been having, but it still brings great joy with its inherent beauty. The lifeguard chair seems a little sad to be alone.

John Simon Talks on Finnish Jews
Tuesday, October 22nd at 7:30 pm at Temple Ahavat Achim
John Simon took over seven years to research the untold history of Jews in Finland. Newly published in English, “Strangers in a Stranger Land” is a creative combination of history and fiction.
The event is free and open to the public.
CLICK HERE TO RSVP
Simon will share a brief talk and readings of portions of his book, as well as stand by for questions. His presentation is sponsored by the Temple, the Cape Ann Finns, St. Paul Lutheran Church, and Gloucester Office of Veterans Services.
“How the Jews came to Finland forms a unique chapter of the Diaspora,” Simon concluded. He tracked their original, involuntary resettlement from other parts of Tsarist Russia to one of the coldest, darkest and most isolated parts of Europe.
“They were then caught — along with the rest of the population of Finland —…

DARYL THE BIG PINK PIG AWAKES FROM HER BEAUTY SLEEP
Once a week Charlotte and I stop by Russell Orchards for their wonderfully fresh fruit; peaches and plums a month ago, and currently, a grand selection of apples, along with several varieties of pears. We are also addicted to their fresh eggs, red potatoes, cider, a variety of home grown veggies, and my family’s favorite, the original and simply the best apple cider doughnuts.
Much to Charlotte’s disappointment, Daryl is usually asleep. Wake-up, wake-up she calls, but to no avail. Daryl snores dreamily on. But after many, many wake-up attempts, this time she awoke from her darkened corner. Daryl walked toward Charlotte (actually, towards her water bowl, both in the same direction) for a quick slurp, then outdoors to her pigsty to closely examine her food bowl. Out the barn door we raced to hopefully catch a second glimpse. Daryl turned around once in her pen then shuffled indoors to return to her shady corner in the barn, falling fast back to piggy dreamland, but not before emitting some deep throated classically hoggish snorts and grunts. This was enough activity to endear Daryl to Charlotte forever.
The little Billy Goat Sweet (I would write Gruff, but he really is very sweet and Patient) is much more fun. Here he is getting his ears examined and in the next photo, she is showing him how to button a coat.

LINDSAY CROUSE GIVES KEYNOTE INSPIRATIONAL TALK AT CAPE ANN CHAMBER’S BUSINESSWOMAN’S LUNCHEON
Imagining your best, most meaningful life, and then taking the leap to live it was the theme of Lindsay’s inspiring talk, presented at the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce’s Businesswomen’s Luncheon, and held at the beautiful Beauport Hotel.
The talk was deeply rooted in the artist’s own life journey, through her storied acting career, and Buddhist studies. The audience was raptly held and I think I speak for many in that we could have stayed all afternoon listening to her ideas on living life with imagination.
Thank you to the Chamber’s Kerry McKenna for the outstanding job she did organizing this stellar, annual event, and to all the sponsors!
