    Didn't The Turtles reunite to open that one? Or was that Flo and Eddie?

    No, that was Winslow and Eddie!

    Wasn't that the one and only performance of "Box Turtle of Rain?"

    Perhaps, but I heard it was a rather Blanding's rendition.

    As an aside, I dug up this article from 2013, which lists many turtle crossing spots known to the State of Maine. Of particular note are "North Berwick Road (actually in Wells)" and "Cheney Woods Road," which very nearly converge at the spot where I
    helped the first turtle across the road back in 2008.

    "Two types, the Blanding's and spotted turtle, both protected under Maine's Endangered Species Act, face extinction if mortality rates increase by even 2 to 3 percent, Hailey said."

    AND

    "Roads in southern Maine known for turtle activity include:

    North Berwick Road, Boyd's Corner, Thurrell Road, Bennett Lot Road, Emery's Bridge Road, Ogunquit Road in South Berwick; Cheney Woods Road and Tatnic Road in Wells; Belle Marsh Road in South Berwick and York; Route 91 in South Berwick and York; Scituate
    Road, Chases Pond Road and Mountain Road in York."

    A month or so ago, on one of the few sunny Saturdays in this
    exceedingly wet summer, I chanced upon a turtle crossing Route 9
    between Wells and North Berwick, near the busy intersection with Route
    9B. Now, having the benefit of advanced human intellect, I can think
    of better places to cross the road. In my opinion, this would be
    especially true if you were a turtle, and even more especially true at Satuiday noon in the height of tourist season. Of course, turtles
    being turtles and all, they tend to have a different philosphy
    regarding these matters. Be that as it may. I pulled over and lended assistance, likely saving the aforementioned turtle a good 15 minutes
    or so, if he/she was quite fortunate on this particular day.
    As fate would have it, I encountered another turtle crossing the road
    just yesterday, on Knight's Pond Road in South Berwick. Since I
    happened to be in practice, I once again stopped to lend assistance,
    and was glad I did as a steady stream of traffic magically appeared as
    I gently placed the turtle beside the road, pointed in the direction
    of the pond. I trust that the age-old compass of turtledom safely
    guided the creature the rest of the way.
    Funny. I have not been able to pinpoint the exact origins, but I have
    since seemed to occasionally drift into a hazy memory of helping
    another turtle across the road, in another time and space. Twice in
    one month though?
    To top it all off, I could swear that the second turtle was an
    identical twin of the first. How strange it all is.
    Now, my question is this: Does anybody have a copy of JGB 11/9/93
    they can B&P me?

    SHOW DETAILS

    Cumberland County Civic Center
    Portland, ME., USA

    Jerry Garcia Band / Fall Tour 1993
    November 9, 1993

    SET 1
    How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)
    Stop That Train
    Let It Rock
    Forever Young
    Ain't No Bread In The Breadbox >
    My Sisters And Brothers >

    SET 2
    Shining Star
    Russian Lullaby
    Tore Up Over You
    Reuben And Cherise
    Wonderful World
    The Maker
    Tangled Up In Blue



    One of the best shows of this tour and maybe the longest too. You get everything you want and more. Jerry simply poured his heart out for this one. It was the first time many folks on the east coast had heard ” Everybody Needs Somebody” and it was an
    excellent version and quite the number to end the first set. Set two is as good as it is on paper. I mean Shining Star and The Maker in the same set as Reuben & Cherise and a Wonderful World? Heaven on your and the vibe in Portland was as kicked back as
    it could get.
    This show will be released sometime soon or whenever they feel the time is right.

    Happy trails!
