Looking like a lovely morning to kick back and catch up on the local news. Here's the latest issue of the Thresher Gazette, hot off the presses. After a lunch, we'll tour some more of the island.

the plazas of Thresher Island
There are many plazas and attractions scattered throughout the island. A paradise needs its parks, after all. Here are a few of the most popular sites.
Hand crafted of Italian tile, these three artistic plazas are tourist favorites:
Big Cat
Fish and Snail
Wilkes Point Plaza
Santa Maria del Mar
the church plaza
the tower plaza
the business plaza...Steven H. Endermann and kipate like this. -
the Thresher Gazette
A few odds and ends about Thresher:
Speak the speak:
- Locals on Thresher are called landers; visitors are offlanders.
- One is either on-island (here on Thresher) or out (not on the island.) I.e.. "He's not home, Mac, he's out to the States."
- Directions are "on the V." For whatever reason, Peale is "left-V" and Wilkes is "right-v." Ver is "V-ver" and Corrente is "mid-V."
- Locals absolutely never, ever make fun of tourists, call them"spiffies" (SPF users) or give them wrong...Steven H. Endermann, pingyao, Inan and 1 other person like this.
