Greek Style Temple, Segesta Sicily
Near Trapani, Sicily, this Doric temple was not built by the Greeks;
there is no evidence they occupied this location at the time it was built in the 5th century BC. The building was never completed and is remarkably preserved as is the mystery of its origins.

Hola, Tortuga
This photo of a sea turtle swimming off a remote beach near Puerto Adventuras checking out Thatcher as intently as Thatcher is checking it out makes me smile every time I see it. I hadn’t found time to go through our GoPro footage until last night and I was so happy to see that we captured a little of the magic. I love that my boys and the other children we were traveling with were so eager to hop off the boat and swim with these wild turtles…. as well as some stingrays….many of whom were giant!
Salty kids….hopefully they made some memories that they won’t soon forget.

NSRY Workshops this Week!
Join us at North Shore Restorative Yoga for two incredible workshops this week that will restore vitality and balance to your life!
THIS Thursday, April 25 from 7-9PM: Restorative Yoga with Acupuncture $60
Join Ayurveda Wellness Healing and North Shore Restorative Yoga and Greta Williams. Lic. Acupuncturist for an evening of BLISS.
The practices of acupuncture and restorative yoga are a fusion of the best healing gifts from two ancient Asian cultures. These modalities free up stagnant energies within the physical, emotional, and mental bodies. This process presents an opportunity to let go of the old and welcome the new. Studies have shown that healing is most effective when done in a nurturing group setting. In this workshop students will hold supported yogic postures for an extended period of time while receiving an acupuncture treatment.
The practices of acupuncture and yoga amplify each other’s benefits. This workshop is open to…

FUN 411 UPDATE ON ETM, THE CUMBERLAND ISLAND BANDED PLOVER
As you may have read, a banded male Piping Plover was spotted by Piping Plover volunteer monitor Heather Hall late afternoon on April 16th. He was banded on October 7th, 2018, at Cumberland Island, Georgia. (Read more here). ETM has been spotted daily and often at Good Harbor Beach since the 16th.
We’ve heard more from the Virginia Tech Shorebird Program biologists. ETM was last seen at Cumberland Island on April 11th, which means that in five days, or less, he traveled all the way from Georgia to Gloucester, approximately 1,140 miles, if traveling by airplane and overland. If he were traveling along the coastline, that would greatly increase the mileage. It’s no wonder that when we see shorebirds newly arrived at Good Harbor Beach in the spring, they appear weary and ravenous!
Reader Kevin McCarthy from Amelia River Cruises left a comment on our first post about ETM – “I was born and raised in Gloucester and grew up at Brier Neck but moved to Amelia Island Florida in 1968. Amelia Island is just south of Cumberland Island and for 20 years I have been operating Amelia River Cruises with narrative sighting boat tours along Cumberland Island. My wife’s family are among the very first English settlers on the island in 1740. Your plover may have been part of my Tours this winter.”
REMINDER – The Piping Plover volunteer monitor information meeting with conservation agent Adreinne Lennon is this Wednesday, April 24th, from 5:00 to 6:00pm at City Hall at the Kyrouz Auditorium

FOR OUR FATHERS, an evening of song and art with Ute Gfrerer and Lisa Rosowsky on Sunday April 28th in the Gloucester Meetinghouse
Internationally acclaimed Austrian soprano Ute Gfrerer and renowned Boston artist Lisa Rosowsky, present a deeply moving evening of song and art, based on the legacy of silence of their two fathers during World War II, one an Austrian member of the Nazi Youth Party, and one a French Jew. In a unique collaboration, the two artists present a Holocaust-themed program of music and mixed media artworks, based on memories of their fathers.
Singer Ute Gfrerer, accompanied on the piano by William Merrill, and artist Lisa Rosowsky present a program based on a chance meeting in 2017, when they learned that they both suffered a legacy of silence and grief from their fathers’ very different experiences in World War II. Gfrerer’s father was a member of the Nazi Youth Party and a soldier, while Rosowsky’s father went into hiding in France after his parents were arrested and sent to…
