Hamilton County SWCD sells rain barrels, native plant kits — The Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District is selling native plant kits and rain barrels. Each native plant kit contains 50 native plant plugs for $135. Rain barrels are also available for pre-order for $75. The re-purposed barrels capture rainwater from the downspout and roof and hold it for use at a later time. Plant kit and rain barrel pre-orders can be placed online at hamiltonswcd.org.

Besides precinct changes, Sheller said some districts have changed as well. “There were some changes to the (Indiana) House and Senate districts, some county council districts, and some school board districts,” Sheller said. By law, each precinct must have at least 600 eligible voters and no more than 2,000, although there are a few exceptions to the rule. A precinct can’t cross a congressional or state legislative district line. “I know it’ll be difficult for some people with the name changes, but it will get to where it is much easier because when they’re numbered like that, it’s easier for our office as far as bookkeeping,” Sheller said. “It’s also easier for people who don’t have any idea where (a certain) neighborhood is.” Sheller said the elections office is already accepting applications for absentee ballots. Voters can register for an absentee ballot at indianavoters.com.

The Westfield City Council unanimously approved the Urban Apples proposal at its Feb. 28 meeting. DEVELOPMENT The council was supposed to vote on the proposal at its January meeting, but the vote was tabled so the council could further explore if the petitioners truly would invest $10 million within the first five years if approved. Urban Apples is a 24-acre agritourism facility with a cidery and music venue. Council President Mike Johns, who said he gave his approval reluctantly, said within the first two years, the council learned the developers would invest $7 million for apple
trees, fencing, building enhancements, music shelter and other features. Johns said he still had concerns with the building. He said petitioner Noah Herron, who owns Urban Vines winery in Westfield, had violated city ordinances in the past. He was concerned with the quality of materials used to construct the buildings and the use of food trucks. Council member Scott Willis said he blames the city as much as he does Herron for issues in the past. “Noah is a small business owner, he’s an entrepreneur who has invested millions of dollars into our community and will continue to do so in the coming years, and that is something we should encourage and reward when we have someone amongst us willing to do that,” Willis said.

Westfield Fire Dept. announces Community Connect partnership By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Westfield Fire Dept. announced a partnership with Community Connect during a Feb. 25 press conference PUBLIC SAFETY at WFD headquarters, 17535 Dartown Rd. Community Connect is a mobile app that allows residents to create a profile and enter property or occupant information, such as garage entry codes or if there are pets in a residence when first responders arrive on a call. WFD worked with software company First Due in 2020 to help the department with its prevention and inspection program. Community Connect is part of First Due’s software. “Community Connect allows residences and businesses to create a life safety profile to share critical information about your property or business with us that we can get on the fly immediately when we get dispatched,” WFD Chief Rob Gaylor said. “We have that critical information that’s going to save us time and energy to focus on your needs and treat you in the way you need to be treated in a timely manner.” Community Connect uses bank-level encryption to keep information safe. The app is voluntary and residents decide what they want to share. “That information is important to us in the event that we get dispatched on an EMS or medical call or even a fire instance, to know what the needs are of your family and

Bryan Kercheval, a former Westfield volunteer firefighter, was the first Westfield resident to sign up for Community Connect and spoke during the press conference. “The Westfield Community Connect program is a great tool for our community and our public safety responders,” Kerchevel said. “As a former Westfield volunteer firefighter, I can tell you that those precious seconds and minutes do count in an emergency. If we as citizens can provide valuable information to public safety before an emergency occurs, then we can help them when responding to our homes during an emergency.”

Westfield senior wrestler develops into top heavyweight By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Four years ago, Westfield High School senior Mihail Platonov was not only a newcomer to wrestling, but to all sports. “I wasn’t an athlete before high school,” said Platonov, who is called Mike by friends. “Starting wrestling in high school, it was my first sport. I really wanted to try something, had a lot of friends that wrestled and wanted to do something I wouldn’t quit at.” The 6-foot-4, 270-pound Platonov has come a long way, finishing second in the 285-pound weight class at the Feb. 19 IHSAA wrestling state finals at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Platonov lost to Rochester’s Marshall Fishback 3-2 in the championship match. After beating Columbia City’s Ian Clifford in the first round, Platonov upset New Prairie’s Hunter Whitenack 4-2 in the quarterfinals and Brownsburg’s Leighton Jones 8-5 in the semifinals. Jones (44-3) was ranked No. 1 in the state and Whitenack was unbeaten going into the match. Platonov had lost to Jones earlier in

way to close the gap on some of those kids who are little more experienced or more athletic? He kept his nose down, kept working hard. He didn’t get discouraged. He kept honing his craft. It seems like every day he got better.” Platonov (39-8) had placed second in the sectional, won the regional and was third at semistate.
“His biggest improvement is just being able to score offensively,” Smith said. “When he was younger, it was all about getting matches. This year, he flipped a switch and he could beat anybody. He had the intent to win every match he played. It changed his mind that he wanted to be the best.” Platonov, who moved to Westfield from Riga, Latvia, when he was 6 years old, said summer practices helped him improve this season. “I felt like I had a really rough start but was doing well where it counted, especially going into the postseason,” Platonov said. “I felt like a lot of things came together. My confidence started showing. (I had) trust in my training, my coaches. More than anything, it was my dream. Dreams are made in that stadium, and I needed to take it.” Platonov said he looks forward to the opportunity to wrestle in college but hasn’t made a choice. Platonov said he wants to major in engineering or parks and recreation Senior Braxton Vest, Platonov’s teammate, finished third in the 120-pound class at the state meet. He finished with a 41-7 record.

Hamilton County to celebrate 200th birthday with book publication By Les Morris news@currentinwestfield.com Hamilton County will mark its 200th birthday in 2023, and residents have a chance to contribute their story to that HISTORY history. As part of the upcoming bicentennial, the Hamilton County Bicentennial Commission is soliciting past and present residents to submit their remembrances and experiences of county life for an upcoming book, “Celebrating Hamilton County, Indiana: 200 Years of Change.” The deadline for contributions is March 15. Photos are also welcome. Selected stories and photos will be featured in the book itself and more in an accompanying blog. All submissions will be saved for posterity, according to Bicentennial Coordinator Jessica Petty. The special edition book is being created by a team of volunteer writers, editors and historians and is scheduled to be published in November. Paid ads can also be purchased with an early August deadline. “The goal of the book is to discuss all nine townships in Hamilton County and to include those more recent stories,” said Petty, noting each township will have its own chapter. Several well-known residents have agreed to contribute chapters. Hamilton County historian David Heighway will write the book’s opening chapter and the chapter on Noblesville Township, where he has lived for 29 years. “The book will be a great opportunity for starting conversations about dealing with issues today by looking at what actions the county has taken in the past,” Heighway said. “I also hope that a lot of young people will take an interest in this.” Another part of the Noblesville Township section will include African American history, a backstory perhaps not as familiar as others. It will be authored by Bryan Glover, director of Learning for Roberts Settlement, who graduated from Noblesville High School in 1975. Glover serves on the board of directors for the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce and the Noblesville Diversity Coalition. To submit a story, visit hamcoturns200. com/our-book.

Ways you can save energy Commentary by Amanda Cross
Local. Honest. Plumbers. Call today!
317.821.7210
Sometimes, the things we do to help the climate feel complicated and expensive. Fortunately, conserving energy SOLAR is the exception: It is as easy as turning off a switch, and it actually saves you money. The vast majority of the electricity we use in Indiana is generated by burning coal, and it is the single-biggest polluter of our water and air. So, reducing how much electricity we use gives double the benefit: It saves us money and makes the global climate more stable. You can find lots of ways to reduce how much electricity you use. Start by making a list of the things around you that use electricity. Then, think through how you can use each item on your list less or change them to be more efficient. Some common strategies include: • Switching to LED light bulbs and getting in the habit of turning off lights when you leave a room. • Improving the insulation in your home so your furnace and air conditioner don’t have to use so much electricity to keep you comfortable. • Choosing energy-efficient models when it’s time to replace your appliances. Another thing you might not have thought of is the importance of spreading the word. Earth Hour is from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. During that hour, participants will turn off their nonessential lights and electrical equipment for one hour. People all around the world will be participating, but the electricity they save in that hour is just a bonus. The real power (pun intended) of Earth Hour is as a rallying point. It helps raise awareness and brings our community together around the goal of being better stewards of the climate. Check out EarthHour.org for more information, including ideas about how you can host an Earth Hour event in your community. Amanda Cross is a volunteer with the Carmel Green Initiative, a coalition of citizens and community groups who promote and support the City of Carmel’s commitment to reducing the impact on the environment.

Westfield Airport officials concerned about proposed residential developments near runway By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com During the 68 years Westfield Airport has operated at 18008 Dartown Rd., few safety concerns have been raised by nearby residents. But as residential developments inch closer to the airport, members of the Wheeler family, who own the airport, are concerned about the residential aspect of proposed developments and the risk they create by being so close to an airport. Concerns came up before the Westfield City Council when it considered a 55-and-older residential development by Platinum Properties proposed on the east of Spring Mill Road between Ind. 32 and 186th street, an adjoining property to Westfield Airport. The proposal suggested changing the zoning of more than 67 acres from an agriculture/ single-family rural district to a neighborhood called the Courtyards at Spring Mill. “Our concerns with the current development, which (was) before the city council, is this is a residential use that is nearly right up against the edge of our runway,” said Ryan Wheeler, whose father, Andy, owns the airport. Ryan is the next generation that will continue running the airport in the future. “Fifty feet from the property line is where the runway is,” Ryan Wheeler said. “So, we obviously have concerns for overall safety, things getting out to the runway and causing issues.” Ryan Wheeler said the area is not compatible with residential development. “People want to be in their homes and want to have peace and tranquility at home and not worry about aircraft that are right out their backdoor,” he said. The airport primarily operates in the evenings and on weekends. Another major concern for the Wheeler family is the potential for bird strikes with aircraft. “They can be very dangerous. The FFA suggest there not be any ponds or wildlife attractions within 2 miles (of an airport),” Wheeler said. “We realize that’s not something that’s going to be able to happen around our airport, but certainly the closer you get to an airport runway, the more critical it becomes. That’s another thing the residential developers want is, they want

nice ponds and geese and things like that to come in.” The area in question is farmland, with commercial development on property to the south. Properties on the east side of the airport also are commercial. “All around it is commercial,” Ryan Wheeler said. “All these things together seem to make it much more advantageous for it to be commercial property.” Ryan Wheeler said the council tabled its decision on whether to approve the development. Council president Mike Johns said since the council meeting, the proposal has been withdrawn and it’s unlikely it’ll return before council. Andy Wheeler said his father, Leslie Wheeler, opened Westfield Airport in 1954. It’s designed for light aircraft. “We have quite a few aircraft from even the ‘40s and ‘50s. It’s a grass runway. That is something that is beneficial to that style of aircraft,” Andy Wheeler said. “We also have more modern aircraft, Cessna 172s and 182s. It’s all single-engine propeller aircraft.” During a 12-month period in 2018, Westfield Airport had an average of 87 flights a week. But the airport is far less busy during the winter months because of the grass runway. “That’s all bunched into summer and late spring and early fall,” Andy Wheeler said. “We don’t have commercial flights.”
Although the airport only accommodates small planes, owners still have liability concerns if a residential community were built nearby. “When you butt (a development) up against a runway, I don’t know there’s anyplace in the United States where anybody would say that’s a good idea,” Andy Wheeler said. “Airplanes and people just don’t go well together. People don’t realize when I’m landing an airplane or I’m taking off, and I’m going at 60 or 70 miles an hour, I can’t just swerve. If a pet runs out or, heaven forbid, if a grandchild ran out, who wants the liability?” Johns said council members are concerned with residential housing next to an airstrip, but they evaluate each residential development on an individual basis. But he said it made sense to continue commercial development near the airport. Johns also said he was concerned with the Wheeler Landing development at Ind. 32 and Wheeler Road, which includes residential components and has already been approved by the council. It also is to the east of the Westfield Airport. Ryan Wheeler said some of the lots within the Wheeler Landing development are not owned by The Wheeler family, and he said the intent is to have no residential zoning around the airport.
As far as the future for Westfield Airport, Andy Wheeler said he wants to keep the airport open. “My dad, who opened the airport, flew until he was 89,” Andy Wheeler said. “I’m 72, so that gives me 17 more years of flying. Ryan is 43, almost 44, and in reality, he could fly for another 40 years. Our goal is to keep the airport alive and expand as it needs to expand to support the flying community.” For more, visit westfieldairport.com.

ANOTHER FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT People fly into the airport for a variety of reasons, including accessing the Monon trail or watching events at Grand Park. The airport even has bicycles for pilots who want to ride on the Monon Trail. Andy Wheeler said flying can add to Westfield’s tourism industry. “Westfield has Grand Park, which is an unbelievable asset, and it’s based on recreation and entertainment,” he said. “Well, flying is just another thing Westfield can offer people that’s an entertainment avenue that no other city around really can offer. Indianapolis has got hard surface and a lot of paved runways. The fun planes people just enjoy flying, they look for our airport because it is a grass, and grass is very nice on airplanes.”

Risky business
California dreamin’ Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Commentary by Terry Anker There are two kinds of people in the world — those who believe that there are two kinds of people and those who do not. On some things we can agree, and on others we won’t. We humans bring our own experience, perspective and baseline personality to each decision and to every interaction. We might “swing for the fences” in one instance only to hold back in another, hoping “to live to fight another day.” The very duality of it all could seem confusing, erratic and inconsistent, but we somehow manage to wrangle our incongruencies into something that could rightly be called an ordered existence. Some of us become risk takers. Our experience has taught us to rely on our abilities and to push boundaries. Others prefer the path more traveled, choosing to trust the accumulated wisdom of those who preceded us. Both approaches are correct. And both are spectacularly wrong. The reckless daredevil learns by frozen digits that mountain climbing is fraught with peril. And the office drone wakes to find themselves at the end of their life, barely lived. If we cannot find our way to a clear choice among the divergent approaches, how can we proceed? Do we hang in the middle, taking some risk but not too much? Do we learn to go with the herd while not following it to slaughter? But if we haven’t taken the big risk, if we haven’t made ourselves completely financially or emotionally vulnerable, have we made full use of this existence God gave us? In our own lives, are we resting too long or pushing too hard? Our greatest moments often come when we walk the tightrope without a safety net, even as it rightly terrifies us. Do we make full use of our gifts in whatever form they take?

My husband Doo and I recently returned from a West Coast jaunt to visit my twin sister and her family in L.A. We stayed a couple of nights with them and then drove down to Orange County, where we fantasized about retiring to Laguna or Dana Point or one of the other ultra-chic beach communities. Sand, surf and year-round sun? Sure beats the heck out of Indiana winters. And a decent double-wide would only set us back $750,000! Alas, that is the main problem with our dream of moving to Southern California. Real estate prices are crazy. My wombmate’s home is a fourth the size of ours, has a small AstroTurf “lawn” in front and hangs on a cliff side, one heavy rain away from being washed into the valley. And yet, she could list that sucker for three times our suburban two-story with its big, gentle-sloping yard and two-car attached garage. I’m not exaggerating. Zillow confirmed this! But our view is one of gloomy roundabouts and even-gloomier naked trees, not majestic mountains and forested canyons. She’s a short Uber ride from the Pacific, while we’re a grueling 13 hours by minivan from the Atlantic. George Clooney lives in her neighborhood. My kids briefly went to school with the daughter of a WTHR meteorologist. There’s just no comparison. So, yeah, we’re daydreaming of our own Southern California ocean-front place. We’re less than six months away from being empty nesters, after all, and surely our friends and family would come visit. They’ll have to stay in a hotel, of course, as our trailer won’t accommodate guests, but at least the weather and scenery will be beautiful. Peace out.

extra cushioning especially if sightseeing walks are on your itinerary. No matter how cute they are, leave your brand-new shoes behind – they can cause blisters and you don’t want to deal with that on vacation. 4. Look at kids’ shoes, too. Children’s feet grow quickly. So, before leaving for vacation, check to make sure your child has lots of room in his or her shoes. (But not too much, or else blisters may be a problem). 5. Come prepared. Make sure to bring nail clippers (be sure to check TSA regarding travel regulations.) Blister patches and antibiotic cream are a good idea, too. This way, if minor irritations come up while you’re traveling, you can address the problem. 6. Don’t forget the sunscreen. Be sure to put sunscreen on your feet, even the bottoms, to avoid sunburn and prevent skin cancer.
Spring break is right around the corner and if your plans include road PODIATRY tripping, flying or even just spending lots of time outside, it’s important to pay attention to your feet. Nothing ruins spring break like sore feet. So, to keep that from happening, check out our tips for preventing foot pain while you travel. 1. Stop and walk. Whether you’re in a plane or a car, sitting for a long time isn’t great for your feet. It lets blood pool in your feet and legs and that can lead to swelling and foot pain. If you’re traveling for more than two hours, you should walk around and stretch your feet and legs. 2. Compress. If regular walking breaks aren’t an option, compression stockings can help. Especially if you’re boarding a long flight. Not only can compression socks prevent edema (swelling), but they can also improve your circulation and help protect you from travel-related blood clots. 3. Check your shoes. Pack comfortable and supportive footwear and socks. Stick to supportive shoes such as athletic shoes which will give your feet

Moving for better health — Sitting for most of the day is terrible for your health, raising your risk for diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. For better health, try to get up and do some light activity several times a day, even if you have a sedentary job. Moving around triggers blood flow, clears glucose from the blood and breaks down triglycerides. Source: BottomLineHealth.com
Helping loved ones recover — When a loved one is ill, you can help their recovery even if you have no medical training. When you talk to them, get an update and be sympathetic, but quickly shift to a positive, upbeat tone. Don’t talk about your own illnesses. Let the person know that you are looking forward to meeting for lunch, or some other outing, in the near future. Laughter is a great healer, and it can make the recovering person’s day.

CHS graduate Meyer returns to Carmel to perform Elton John songs By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For the past 13 years, Craig A. Meyer’s Elton John tribute show has pretty much been a full-time pursuit. CONCERT Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, he performed about 40 percent of his gigs on cruise ships. He also plays in performing arts centers, festivals, galas, casinos and private parties. “I did a wedding on the campus at the University of Arkansas in October (2021),” he said. “I’ve done a wedding when I made my arrival in a helicopter. I’ve done small private parties. It runs the gamut. Whether I’m performing for 10 or 10,000, they get the same show because I love what I do. “All I’ve wanted to be in life is a working actor, and that’s exactly what I am. I’m blessed people pay me money for something I enjoy doing.” The 1981 Carmel High School graduate will perform his “Remember When Rock Was Young, The Elton John Tribute” show at 8 p.m. March 18 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Actors Theatre of Indiana is presenting the show. Meyer met ATI co-founder Don Farrell through connections in New York and Atlanta. ‘We became friends and he’s been trying to get me to ATI for the better part of five years,” Meyer said. “It will actually be my first performance in the Indianapolis/Carmel area since I left high school.” Meyer appeared in several shows at CHS and was a member of the Ambassadors mixed show choir. At a young age, Meyer acted in Los Angeles before his family moved to Carmel in the late 1970s. Meyer received his Screen Actors Guild card at age 11. “It was amazing for my sister and I to end up in the program that was run there at Carmel,” Meyer said. “The opportunities were just amazing.” Through the years, Meyer was worked in TV, film and theater. He has performed

in Broadway shows and national tours. He has performed internationally and recorded with Frankie Valli and Barry Manilow. Seventeen years ago, he moved to Atlanta. “I literally backed into this Elton John thing,” he said. “It was not anything I planned on doing.” A woman who performed a Dolly Parton tribute show attended a class he was teaching. “She said there has to be someone there you could be doing,” Meyer said. “I don’t want to go to the elephant graveyard of entertainment and be an impersonator.” Eventually during one of his shows, he performed a couple of Elton John songs on piano. “A dozen people came up and said there was a moment they could hear Elton in my hands and in my voice,” Meyer said. Meyer and a friend picked out some Elton John outfits, and she sent photos and a demo to people she knew in the entertainment industry. “I thought it would be a side hustle with all the things I was doing in Atlanta,”
Meyer said. “In 18 months, I was doing my first show in Vegas. A year after that, I was doing my first symphony show with a 50-piece orchestra. It’s just grown.” Meyer said he has crafted the show to take the audience on an emotional journey. “I put the pressure on, I take the pressure off, so it’s satisfying. It’s not just a bunch of songs strung together,” he said. “Every song in the show has something about it that I enjoy.” He said the best part is when he begins to play the final few songs. “I get to the place where I do ‘Your Song’ and it’s just me and the piano and the audience,” Meyer said. “It’s my favorite moment where if I’ve done my job correctly, it’s this great intimate moment that happens between me and the audience and I know that I’ve landed the plane. “They’ve had a great time and I’ve convinced them that I’m the closest thing they’ll have to seeing Elton John without seeing him.” For tickets, visit thecenterpresents.org.

CHS graduate embraces challenge of ‘Wait Until Dark’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This is the biggest challenge Carly Masterson has taken on in her acting career. The Carmel resident plays Suzy, PLAY a blind woman who is terrorized by three criminals in search of a doll in Civic Theatre’s “Wait Until Dark.” “I’ve been acting since I was in high school, and this is completely different from anything I’ve ever done in my life,” the 2015 Carmel High School graduate said. “I’m trying to take all the moments to speak, listen and find what I’m going to say with the use of my body.” The performances are set for March 11-26 at the Studio Theater in the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “It definitely spoke to me when I first heard they were putting the show on,” Masterson said. “It’s a very difficult role for obvious reasons. She’s blind and I’m a seeing person. I’ve had a lot of direction from my director as well as trying to play this role as truthful as possible. I’m trying to give her justice for the obstacles she has to face.” The Carmel resident hasn’t seen the movie because she wanted to put her own stamp on the role. “I really want to create on my own views on reading the show for the first time,” she said. “What we’re trying to do is her finding discoveries with her whole body. She focuses on how her body moves in the space.” Masterson said it is one of the most intricate sets she has worked in.
“The director wanted to make it one whole performance with no intermission, but she said, ‘We’ll give Carly a break,’” Masterson said. “The lines aren’t an issue. It’s trying to make her maneuver and to play her truthfully.’ Parrish Williams, a New Palestine resident, plays one of the criminals, Carlino. “The role is beefed up from the original play,” Williams said. “It’s a play I’ve always liked and been interested in. My good friend, (Civic Theatre Executive Artistic Director) Michael Lasley, directed this play for Civic. I remembered seeing it then and I was far too young to play any of the roles at that point in time. I remember thinking at some point in time, I’d like to do it. I do a lot at Civic, but I rarely do anything like this. It was an opportunity to play against my typical type.” Williams said he normally plays broad comedic roles or affable characters. He most recently played Santa Claus in “Elf.” Occasionally, he plays a sarcastic character but rarely a bad character. Indianapolis resident Jay Hemphill, the artistic director for Arts for Lawrence, plays Harry Roat Jr., the main villain. “He does get delight out of being the villain,” Hemphill said. “It’s not the act of murder, it’s the leading up to it. He loves the chase. He’s very cat and mouse. He’s very shark-like, stalking. For him, that’s the joy. He could just come in and strangle someone and get the doll. But he’s like, ‘Let’s play the game.’” For more, visit civictheatre.org.

Students lead art project editorital@youarecurrent.com The students of Fishers’ Fall Creek Junior High are sharing their artwork at the Art Gallery at City Hall, Fishers, ARTISTS for their “Embracing Black Culture” exhibit, which is on display through the end of March. After their last month’s presentation, guided by Travis Brown of Mojo Up and FCJH visual arts department chair Michelle Feeney, the students will become teachers as they take another step in using their student voice to lead. The community art project will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. March 11 in the Art Gallery at City Hall, One Municipal Drive, Fishers. Live music and refreshments will be available. Some artwork will be available for purchase. There is no fee to participate in the community art project and registration isn’t required Fishers Arts Council officials have always enjoyed sharing the artwork of students in the community. “These students have created powerful works,” stated Les Reinhardt, executive director of the Fishers Arts Council.

board wanted to extend another opportunity for the students to step into leadership roles through their art. Working alongside Feeney, a plan was created for a community canvas painting project, using Cubism. Cubism involves bringing different views of subjects together in the same painting, which results in works that appear abstract or fragmented. The community artwork will be a nod to the Great Squirrel Stampede of 1822, when thousands of squirrels destroyed cornfields as they migrated west against their natural path.

Can I quote you on that? Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
Cabbage Key Harbor in Florida. (Photo by Don Knebel)
A visit to Cabbage Key Commentary by Don Knebel Last week, we visited Sanibel, Fla., a favorite winter destination for many Hoosiers. Today, we will visit Cabbage TRAVEL Key, an enjoyable boat day trip from Sanibel or nearby Captiva. Cabbage Key is a 100-acre barrier island in Pine Island Sound about 20 miles northwest of Fort Myers. About 2,500 years ago, the indigenous Calusas began creating a 40-foot-high mound of shells (“midden”) on the island. In 1936, Alan Rinehart, son of best-selling mystery writer Mary Roberts Rinehart, and his wife, Gratia, purchased the uninhabited island (then Palmetto Key) for a reported $20,000. The Rineharts built a 4,500-square-foot winter house atop the midden about 130 feet from the water. They also built a boathouse, two cottages, a power station and a 6,000-gallon water tower, creating a private tropical paradise. After 34-year-old Gratia, who obtained the property in a divorce, died in 1939, the island was sold. The new owners renamed the island Cabbage Key after its cabbage palm trees and converted the house and cottages into an inn. In 1971, the then-owners obtained a liquor license. For reasons not entirely clear, bar patrons began signing dollar bills and taping them to the walls and ceilings in what had been the Rineharts’ library. The bar became world famous, attracting a number of celebrities, including singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett. Today, visitors come to roadless Cabbage Key by boat from around the world, most just for lunch or a drink in the bar. About 70,000 dollar bills cover every available space in the bar and an estimated 10,000
It seems like people avoid using quotation marks correctly. And rightfully so: These punctuation marks look like a pair of commas that GRAMMAR GUY have pumped themselves full of helium. But I try to look at it this way: Quotation marks are up there to give your words a high five. Let’s start with the basics. Use quotation marks around dialogue (i.e., something someone says). “I’m still upset Pluto is no longer a planet,” Humphrey remarked. This is an example of a direct quote, so it gets quotation marks. However, consider the following sentence. Humphrey remarked he was still upset Pluto is no longer a planet. This is an example of an indirect quote, so it doesn’t require quotation marks. I like to think of quotation marks as T-rex fingers, demarcating the words inside as special -- kind of like the lucky underwear you only wear when you want to have an exceptionally awesome day. So, what else gets the quotation mark
treatment? In addition to dialogue, AP style instructs us to put quotation marks around the titles of books, songs, television shows, computer games, poems, lectures, speeches and works of art. Do not, however, put quotation marks around the names of magazines, newspapers, the Bible or books that are catalogs of reference materials. Finally, use quotation marks to indicate something is unusual, novel, ironic, or sarcastic. For instance: NASA continues to make us believe in the so-called “moon landing.” Here’s the bottom line: You should learn how to use quotation marks correctly. They may not save your life, but wellplaced quotation marks make the words inside them feel like they’re at a super deluxe, exclusive syntax party. Fancy!

fall off every year, which are donated to children’s charities. During some spring days, the inn’s restaurant serves about 1,000 lunches, most of them its famous large and loaded cheeseburgers.
