Helped this little guy cross the street

Another reason to slow down when driving.  This turtle was crossing Bray Street on Wednesday.  Stayed with the turtle until the turtle was safe.

Visiting West Gloucester

Love seeing the wildlife over at the pond in West Gloucester.  The heron was very proud of tadpole catch and the turtle on the log.

Beautiful bird

How beautiful are these birds?  I love the Egret with the turtle hanging out together.

That’s Gonna Hurt Coming Out Bro…

You thought popcorn kernels or red pepper flakes were a bitch?  I’ve got a feeling turtle shell pieces are just gonna tear that butt to shreds.

Hope it was worth it.

Special Time with FOB Ann Kennedy

a morning with ann kennedy

I got to spend a very special morning with Ann Kennedy on Tuesday, toward the end of her and Bob’s month-long annual visit to their beloved Gloucester.  We met early for a delicious and hearty breakfast at Sailor Stan’s, then went for a nice long walk out Eastern Point, to the spot I now call Evelyn’s Point, beyond the Retreat House and Brace Cove.  We encountered many beautiful and fun things along our journey, including a mother duck with her ducklings (she had to be babysitting, as they couldn’t all have been her’s) and two turtles sunning on a rock in Niles Pond, plus a dreadful and vicious bullfrog that Ann attempted unsuccessfully to capture and bring to Joey.  This has become one of my favorite spots to walk to and it was nice to be able to share it with Ann, who had never been there.  The trails through the woods are soft and peaceful.  At one point we were forced to stop and turn back because of a large uprooted tree that made the path we were on unpassable.  It was a special time with a special FOB and friend, and I look forward to a repeat when they return next year.

Congratulations to Ann and Bob who just celebrated their 42nd wedding anniversary.

Hi Joey:  Just had new stepping stones put in last week.  Mama turtle
decided to find a spot to lay eggs, I guess.  I’ll be filling in holes in
our new landscaping in the days to come.
I don’t know how to make turtle soup – does sister Felicia?

Rock Sculptures on the Back Shore Photos From Janet Rice

Hi Joey-

I was intrigued by the beauty of these rock sculptures through the morning fog on the Back Shore. In the last photo, does anyone know what James Regan -14- signifies?
