JAKE WOOD: FRIDAY, SATURDAY, AND SUNDAY GREASY POLE CHAMPION
After Randy Sweet’s stunning two Greasy Pole victories in two straight competitions, lots of folks were wondering if anyone has ever won the Greasy Pole contest three nights in a row. The answer is yes, Jake Wood captured the flag all three nights back in 1999! Jake still walks today and he is in third place for all time Greasy Pole captures, with seven wins. He is superseded only by Salvi Benson (11) and Peter “Black” Frontiero (9). Thank you to Jake, Joey D, and Steven for the record.

SHOUT OUT TO GLOUCESTER’S FINEST- THANKING OUR FIREMEN, POLICEMEN, AND EMTS
This morning I was rear-ended coming home from filming Plovers. No worries, just a touch of whiplash. I was a little shook up and didn’t ask for the name of fireman, EMT, and policeman who were there within moments of calling, but would very much like to thank them, not only for this morning’s help, but I have been thinking about them all week during Fiesta. They were present at every event throughout this past week’s fabulous fiesta, and I observed them providing assistance in myriad situations. I think we are very blessed in Gloucester to have such a dedicated and compassionate team of policemen, firemen, and emergency medical responders. A most sincere thank you for all that you do each and every day, and for all that you did to make this year’s Saint Peter’s Fiesta the wonderful success that it was.
Don’t they have the greatest badges too 🙂

Capturing the Flag…and Bloopers and Close Calls
While we all know by now that Randy Sweet captured both Friday and Saturday’s Greasy Pole flags and that Jake Wagner is Sunday’s Champion, it is worth mentioning that there were several other, less glorified, close calls on the pole. There were also pretty epic falls.
Here’s just a bit of Sunday’s action in video and photos

High Noon ~
We are what we digest, not what we eat.
Do you eat your biggest meal of the day at lunch between 12 noon and 2:00pm? No?
Through the lens of Ayurveda our digestive fire is the strongest and is working at it’s maximum potency. As the sun begins to go down so does our agni (digestive fire)
So start today by eating lunch between 12 noon and 2:00pm and making it the biggest meal of the day.
Let Ayurveda Wellness Healing, LLC know in a week how just this one small change made a huge difference in your body and mind.

Things are Looking Up for the Greasy Pole Champ, Jake Wagner
Or at least I was looking up at Sunday’s Greasy Pole Champion, Jake Wagner. I learned quickly from my vantage point just under the pole that that grease is no joke. Thatch, Finn, and I came home covered in it.
Congratulations to all of the walkers! There were several very close calls this afternoon! Good showing by all!
