Business expands to meet infrastructure needs

By Jarred Meeks news@currentzionsville.com

A Zionsville company that provides mobile conveyors for infrastructure creation is expanding its business, aimGROWTH ing to double the number of trucks it has on the road by the end of the year. Gravel Conveyors, Inc. formed in 2013 when CEO Travis Pettijohn acquired the company from his father, and with the ongoing expansion he wants to position the company for his children to run in the future. The company, which has operated with up to 10 trucks, now has 18 operational trucks and plans to add three more before the end of the year. In addition, the firm has added five positions since the expansion was announced. It will add at least seven positions by the end of the year and another 15 by the end of 2022. The company will expand its facility to add more bays to in-source painting its trucks. Director of Operations Aaron Witmer said the market has been the catalyst for the company’s expansion. The company assists numerous infrastructure and housing developments throughout the central Indiana area. This is due in part because stone slingers, mobile conveyors powered by a hydraulic system that spreads materials, such as stone, in precise densities to exact locations from a road-side position, have become preferable for many projects as opposed to physical labor. Witmer said the market’s shift toward

stone slingers is likely because of cost effectiveness and time efficiency. Companies also must follow legal codes that limit contamination of construction site and stormwater systems, which, in turn, prohibit workers from moving materials from the road to the construction site and back. “You cannot drive around the job sites anymore,” Witmer said. “What the stone slinger does is allows all this work to be done from the road with less contamination and it’s more efficient, so jobs that used to take three weeks now take one day.” The company also specializes in distributing and utilizing dump trucks with dump beds designed by Bibeau, a steel dump body manufacturing company. “We feel that we are the leaders in the conveying industry,” Pettijohn said.

Deb, Greencastle

Hearing a click in your hip can be worrisome for anyone. But for Deb, who’s active all day as head coach of the DePauw University women’s volleyball team, it was especially concerning. That’s why she turned to the sports medicine and orthopedic experts at Hendricks Regional Health. After learning that anterior hip replacement was her best option, Deb had surgery — and was back on her feet in just days. Deb’s also back on the court, setting the Tigers up for even more success. And she knows with the support of Hendricks, she can keep leading her team as they dig, spike, block and enjoy the game they love. Don’t let an injury slow you down.

Commentary by Ward Degler I overheard someone say that so-and-so wasn’t much fun at the party because “he was on the wagon.” BePLAIN TALK ing an addict of words and their meanings, I just naturally had to hop on the wagon myself and find out what it was all about. There are at least two stories about the origin of the phrase. Both root the words firmly in American soil, and both feature the streets of New York somewhere around the first of the 20th century. Men who were given jail sentences, one version claims, were loaded on a wagon that would haul them to the pokey. On the way, legend has it, the driver would stop at a saloon and the men were allowed one final drink before facing the cold, harsh abstinence of the jail cell. Another version attributes the phrase to water wagons that were used to dampen dusty streets of the city. Those on the wagon drank water instead of beer. Or so the story goes. This side of the story was heavily embraced by militant temperance groups such as the New York Anti-Saloon League. The superintendent of this organization, William Hamilton Anderson, declared those who abstained from booze to be “teetotalers.” Part of the anti-drinking movement at the time was the work of Lyman Beader and the Preston Temperance Society. Apparently, men who sobered up and joined the Society were required to “take the pledge.” After raising their hand and reciting the words, they would sign it and place a capitol “T” after their signature, signifying they were “Teetotalers.” Of course, none of these could hold a candle to Carrie Nation, who not only supported temperance, but who dramatically enforced it by leading a group of hymnsinging women into saloons and destroying the bottles and kegs with a hatchet. She believed the authority for her actions came in a vision from God, and even though she was arrested and fined more than 30 times, she never stopped swinging her hatchet.

THE EXTRA ‘McMILE’

Owner secures space at Town Hall for retirees during McDonald’s renovations

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com John Liapes knew when his Zionsville McDonald’s restaurant closed several weeks for renovations that COVER STORY there would be one group of customers affected more than others. A group of several retirees visit the McDonald’s, which was shut down for seven weeks in June and July, at 50 Brendon Way each morning to share stories and laughs over coffee. Liapes didn’t want to abandon them during the renovations. So, he came up with an innovative solution. “I was going to put a tent out here (in the parking lot), but the contractors said a tent wouldn’t work because there was so much dust and noise,” Liapes said. “So, I thought, ‘Town hall is beautiful,’ and went across the

street to talk to the folks there about using a conference room a few hours a day for a group of folks that like to meet while the restaurant was under construction.” Town officials agreed. They allowed Liapes to use the town’s conference room for a few hours each morning at no cost. Liapes provided coffee and pastries for his loyal customers, more than a dozen at any given time. The McDonald’s drive-thru remained open during construction. “They were all very appreciative we took the time to think about them,” Liapes said. “What we try to do here is think about what’s best for the customer, and if you think that way, you’re blessed with folks who are very loyal because they know you care. I think this (McDonald’s) was like a church to them in many ways.” The retirees appreciated that Liapes went the extra mile to accomodate their tight-

knit group. “Some of this has been going on one way or another for 25 to 30 years,” retiree Gary Mann said. “I’ve been doing it (at McDonald’s) for seven or eight years. It gives you an excuse to get up and get out of bed and go some place. I used to go to work, but now I’m retired, so I get up and go to this. It gives you a reason to get going in the morning. “(Liapes) is the most caring manager we’ve ever had at this McDonald’s. He cares for his people.” Retiree Bob Walker echoed Mann’s gratitude for the Town Hall gatherings. “(Liapes) didn’t have to do that. It was very nice of him,” Walker said. “I felt like a member of the board over there at that big, round table.” The McDonald’s dining room reopened July 18. A grand reopening event is scheduled for Aug. 10.

‘NOT REPLACING PEOPLE’ Although the McDonald’s renovations includes some modern automation ordering methods, owner John Liapes said the restaurant isn’t replacing people with technology. “There are kiosks to self-order, and the other big element is table service,” he said. “We are pumping up the level of service and attention to service, and technology helps with that. We are still looking to hire good people. We are not replacing people with technology and never will in our business. We just really wanted to have a great trained staff.” Liapes owns four McDonald’s with his wife, Mary. The restaurants are in Zionsville, Whitestown, Carmel (near 116th Street and Springmill Road) and Indianapolis (at 96th and Meridian streets).

ESSAY Never lost

LETTER Retail ruins homesteads

Commentary by Terry Anker Sitting at the airport this morning waiting for a plane to deliver us from Indianapolis International to Hartsfield in Atlanta, we weary travelers are confronted with the all-too-common news of cascading delays. It seems the original plane required overnight repairs. Those didn’t accomplish the task. Finding this attempt unrequited, the airline assured an alternate plane would be ferried to us in short order. Alas, it seems that the newly requisitioned chariot developed its own issues. It may find its way to us – or not. A young woman approached the counter, clearly feeling some despair. “I am flying alone for the first time and I think I will miss my connecting flight!” Calmed by the professional gate attendant, she was reassured that planes come and go and that, undoubtedly, she would eventually arrive to join her family in her home city. It is our way to obsess about our path. What if we get lost? Notions of unfamiliarity and uncertainty bring with them considerable anxiety. Still, have we ever been so lost that we didn’t eventually find our way home? On a trip to get ice cream while on vacation, my then-young children had lost confidence in my navigating and were pressuring me to stop and ask for directions from a bystander. In a particularly cranky moment, I responded that I once became so lost that I simply gave up and started a new family. After a moment of hushed discussion between them, the older asserted that I must be joking. Happily, I was. Still, the point was made. As long as we are committed to the ultimate result, we will arrive at our ultimate destination. And we did.

A living sleep nightmare Commentary by Danielle Wilson Most long-time readers know that sleep is very important to me and that I take great strides to maximize my zzz’s. I go to bed at 9 p.m. in hopes of a solid 10 HUMOR hours. I have a mask, sound machine, weighted blanket, blackout blinds and extra pillows, the last for building a wall between me and my husband, Doo. Most nights are fine, though occasionally life sabotages my perfectly laid plans. During the weekend, for example, I failed miserably. For starters, I was not home. We were at Doo’s family reunion in northern Indiana, where 36 of us cavort under one roof for 72 hours. I had actually stayed in town an extra day to avoid the inevitable opening-night festivities, but as Murphy’s Law would have it, everyone was too tired that night and decided to save the main event for when I arrived. (Sarcastic yay!) Despite bringing many of my shut-eye

accoutrements, I could not fall asleep. I heard everything, from raucous laughter to heavy footsteps to slamming doors. At 12:30 a.m., Doo came in, smelling of cigarettes and booze and fun. I was still wide awake an hour later, debating whether to kick Smelly Pants out or move myself. By 2 a.m., I’d decided to seek refuge in the living room, hoping to claim a couch. After dispersing four angsty teenagers who’d been scarfing down Lucky Charms and playing video games, I curled up on the 30-year-old-plus sofa that I soon discovered had a faint armpit odor. Eventually, I drifted off and awoke around 7 a.m., when the little ones began filtering in. So, epic fail on the sleep front. Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “If you want something done, ask a busy person to do it. The more things you do the more you can do.” -Lucille Ball

Editor, Is it too late to stop the farmland eradication on the Zionsville/Whitestown border roads like C.R. 650, aka Main Street? It is evidently being rezoned from farm/residential purpose to commercial/retail. At this moment, retail, other business development and now way too much residential overdevelopment is beginning to ruin the very farm-like nature of our homesteads. When we built our homes here a decade ago, we were promised this area would not become a sprawl as had happened in Fishers. We were promised that development would be properly managed as to retain the farm and country-like atmosphere. Were we just being sold a bill of goods, a lie? In a letter, I asked (Whitestown Town Manager) Jason Lawson what we could do to stop the overdevelopment. He provided a rote response that “it’s being properly managed.” Well, that’s just not the case. I imagine little can be done to stop the sale of the already rezoned farm real estate into the hands of the ugly retail development world. What can we do at this point to stop the rezoning and ruination of our neighborhoods? I fear that not enough of our neighbors know what’s happening. Mark Ableman, Whitestown

Going virtually broke

Buying Selling Buying Or Or Selling A A Home? Home?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Mary Ellen and I have been taking short walks around the neighborhood after dinner. It’s relaxing and good HUMOR exercise, but I can’t afford it anymore. You see, my wife is always looking for ways to improve our new house, hoping to spruce up the landscape — maybe by adding a blue spruce, just like the one she saw next door at the Fabershams’ house. Last night, I jotted down every detail that caught her eye, every home improvement she fancied as possibilities for our place, then I did a quick online search for approximate costs. Your prices may vary. “Oh, look!” she said. “The Robinsons are screening in their porch. We should do that so we can sit outside and not be bothered by mosquitoes.” Cost: $4,200. Then, she noticed the Medcalfs’ enclosed glass sunroom. “That’s even better, Dick. We could sit out there in the winter, have dinner and watch the snow falling.” Cost: $6,700. “Dick, the Rosens have an automatic sprinkler system. That would be an excellent investment for us. Curb appeal is so important.” Cost: $3,400. “Now, that is so serene,” Mary Ellen said about the Jamesons’ fountain and rock garden. “I’ve always wanted a fountain.” Cost: $1,200 plus high maintenance costs. By the time we got home, I was feeling broke. We went out on the deck to enjoy a glass of wine. She was silent for a few minutes, so I thought the spending spree was over. Things were looking up. But then she looked up: “I’d love to have a ceiling fan out here on the back porch.” Cost: $179. We are not going to buy most of those things. Truth is, my wife is actually very frugal. She simply enjoys dreaming about home improvements. Next June is our 40th wedding anniversary, and I suggested we go to Spain and Portugal to celebrate. “How does that sound?” I asked. “I don’t know,” she responded. “Can we afford it?” “Yes! It’s cheaper than going for a walk.”

Recovery Room aims for healing By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com

Probiotics & Your Health Join Dr. Jason Roberts, a board-certified and fellowship-trained gastroenterologist, as he discusses the uses and benefits of probiotics. A light dinner will be served. When: Thursday, Aug. 22 6-7 p.m. Location: Riverview Health 395 Westfield Rd., Noblesville, IN 46060 Krieg DeVault Conference Room (Entrance 3, Lower level of Women’s Pavilion) Registration: Visit riverview.org/classes or call 317.776.7999. The program is free, but registration is required.

Most people might feel trepidation about spending a few minutes in temperatures more than 200 degrees CRYOTHERAPY below zero, but not Tara Homan. The Westfield resident jumped at the chance to try cryotherapy when she learned about it, as she had been taking “brutal” 20-minute ice baths to recover after an intense workout. She hasn’t looked back. “An ice bath is much worse,” said Homan, who teaches fitness classes, rock climbs, completes workouts on her own and helps care for a paralyzed family member. Homan uses the cryotherapy tank and other services available at The Recovery Room, which has a location in Westfield and a recently renovated space near the Carmel/ Westfield border and will soon open one in Noblesville. Co-owner Konnie Komarovsky described The Recovery Room as a “sports spa” designed for people who are “beating themselves up from whatever they’re doing.” “It’s a matter of how much time do you want to spend feeling beat up? You can run a 5K and spend four days feeling beat up, or you can spend a day and a half (after using The Recovery Room services),” he said. “How much is that worth to you? That’s really what people pay for.” The Recovery Room offerings include NormaTec boots, which use pneumatic compression to push excess fluid out of tight muscles; float pods that lead to feelings of weightlessness and take pressure off of joints; and cryotherapy, which exposes the whole body to temperatures as low as -220 degrees Fahrenheit to reduce inflammation. Komarovsky understands that willingly enduring beyond frigid temperatures

doesn’t make sense to a lot of people – and that’s OK. Homan said a combination of cryotherapy and the NormaTec boots have made a huge difference in her recovery. She had spent two years trying to treat plantar fasciitis, but after three months using The Recovery Room services the pain was gone in three months. Homan has started bringing her 12-yearold son, a rock climber, to The Recovery Room for cryotherapy sessions. Clients include everyone from students to professional athletes, and the staff works hard to get to know them. “The people who appreciate us most are the people who push themselves hardest,” Komarovsky said. The Recovery Room isn’t the only place to try cryotherapy in central Indiana, but Komarovsky said it’s unique in its pricing structure. Clients pay $69.99 per month for a year to have access to all of The Recovery Room’s services. Single-day passes are $39.99 and include all services. Elsewhere, a single cryotherapy treatment can cost $50 or more. “We have committed the most in terms of equipment and availability and nicer things,” Komarovsky said. “And we charge the least.”

The Growth Coach changes hands, locations By Michael Rheinheimer news@currentzionsville.com The Growth Coach of North Indianapolis has a new location and a new owner. Bob Paden of Zionsville is the COACHING hand–picked replacement of the franchise’s former owner and the company’s current president, Lisa Hudson. Among other services, The Growth Coach offers one-on-one business coaching, workshops and Paden advising for managers and company leaders. On July 25, Paden celebrated the opening of The Growth Coach’s new location at 71 Monon Blvd, Suite 200, in Carmel. The former location also was in Carmel. Paden said the location will allow him to easily serve his clients in Boone and Hamilton counties. Paden has worked as a consultant for more than 10 years. He has spent the past three years operating his own consulting firm, TIER321. Paden said part of what drew him to The Growth Coach is its focus on working with the business owner first. “We work on how to get a business owner where they need to go,” he said. “The focus is on the owner first, since they set the goals, then the managers and then the employees.” Hudson’s decision to sell the franchise to Paden grew out of what Paden called a weekend of chatting and networking. “When I met Bob, I was impressed not only by his experience, but also his authentic and practical approach to working with clients,” Hudson said. “I know our Indianapolis clients are in good hands.”

DISPATCH New car replacement insurance — Typical insurance policies only pay a depreciated value for your car if it’s totaled in an accident. Full replacement cost coverage will increase your premium by at least 15 percent and is only good for a limited time period, or specific number of miles. It might not be worth the extra premiums given the chance of totaling your car is less than 1 percent in a year. Source: BottomLine.com

Bottoms up: Carmel mixologist launches mobile business, farm-to-glass cocktails By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com For Brett Butler, creating the perfect cocktail is a matter of mixing art and science. DRINKS “It’s really finding that balance between art and science, the science of liquid and making a drink look the way it does with garnishes,” he said. “Eighty to 85 percent of our taste is smell, but it’s also visual.” Butler, a Carmel resident, is the founder of Alcomy, a mobile cocktail business. He also bartends at Danny Boy Beer Works in Carmel. “It’s more than mixology,” Butler said. “There’s a lot of entertainment and flair and it’s an overall experience, hopefully, people haven’t had before.” Butler founded Alcomy in 2016 when he lived in Los Angeles. The business began to pick up steam when he moved to Indiana in September 2017. Butler originally moved LA for acting and writing in 2006. He was hired for work as an extra in short films and acted in some commercials. “I came back to spend time with my family and get back to my roots and lay down my roots and also continue this business,” Butler said. “In LA, there’s a lot of competition and a lot of people doing what I do.” While in LA, Butler studied under mixolo-

gist Matthew Biancaniello, a cocktail chef who takes groups foraging in the Santa Monica mountains. Biancaniello is the reason behind Butler’s fascination with the farm-to-glass cocktail trend. “The concept I came up with is to make it more health-conscious, using fresh herbs, fresh juices and going to farmers markets,” Butler said. “I like to use things from farmers markets and really celebrate the farmers of Indiana.” Butler sometimes dehydrates fruit for garnishes. He also frequently creates his own homemade syrups, such as a blueberry-lavender-sage. Butler works private events and teaches classes through Alcomy. He began working for Danny Boy Beer Works in October 2017 and recently created a pop-up bar concept, where every third Thursday of each month he organizes a craft cocktail bar with five specialty drinks. Diners order drinks from their server or bartender, and Butler makes it. Butler’s goal is to be the go-to mobile mixology service in Indiana. He also is working on creating handcrafted mixers called Alcomy Elixirs.

Eventually, he wants to create a partnership with a company and sell canned cocktails. “Alcomy is curating an elevated liquid experience. That’s my focus, to be really unique in that,” Butler said. “There’s no theme, no idea, no event I’m not willing to try. There’s nothing beyond the realm of creating in regard to putting together an experience.” For more or to keep up with special classes and events, visit Alcomy on Facebook. Book an event by emailing Butler at brettwbutler@gmail.com.

TIPS AND TRICKS FROM MIXOLOGIST BRETT BUTLER • Best tip for a beginning bartender: Add the alcohol last. “Always add the least expensive ingredients first, so if you screw up the drink as you’re learning, you’re not going to waste good alcohol.” • Most important bar tool: A jigger. “It’s your best friend, making sure everything is all portioned. It’s all math.” • Ingredient to always have on hand: Some kind of citrus. “Whether it’s orange juice, a good, fresh-squeezed lime or lemon juice, it goes a long way.” • Favorite drink to enjoy: An old-fashioned. • Favorite drink to make: Feng shui. “It’s so easy to get wrong, but if I can balance it, it’s lychee, Thai basil, Thai chilis, lemongrasshoney-basil syrup with vodka and sake.”

Felber relishes Hootie’s return By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Hootie & the Blowfish had just been on a break, albeit an extended one. The band hadn’t toured since 2008 as CONCERT lead singer Darius Rucker pursued a solo country career. In between, Hootie played some yearly charity events. This year the four band members have reunited for the Group Therapy Tour that lands at Noblesville’s Ruoff Mortgage Music Center at 7 p.m. Aug. 17. The charity events have primarily been shorter sets. “It was strange coming back out and to rehearse, which never used to do in our past career,” bass player Dean Felber said. The band is playing most of the songs from “Cracked Rear View,” the band’s debut album, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary. The band formed in 1986 while the four friends were attending the University of South Carolina in Columbia. Fittingly, the U.S. tour ends with three nights in Columbia. The group is in process of making a sixth studio album.

Hootie and the Blowfish members are, from left, Dean Felber, Mark Bryan, Darius Rucker and Jim Sonefeld. (Photo Todd & Chris Owyoung)

“We’re rehearsing some of the new songs, we are kind of waiting to see where the singles come from,” Felber said. “I can’t say we won’t play a new song in a couple of weeks but nothing is set in stone. Once we got together to work on songs, the rust came off pretty quick.” When the band first went on hiatus, Felber was doing music for commercials. Felber also formed a wine company, Perception Wines. “Then my daughters came to live with me and I became a full-time dad for a few years while they were growing up,” Felber said.

Commentary by Mike Gillis

SEPTEMBER 14, 2019 9 am - 3 pm @ Indiana Spine Group 13225 N. Meridian, Carmel, IN 46032

Car show and 12-mile car cruise between Carmel and Indianapolis benefiting Folds of Honor - Indiana Chapter Special Guest Appearance by Catherine Bach from the original Dukes of Hazard: 10am – 2pm FOR MORE INFO OR TO REGISTER: www.cruiseindy.com or 317.275.1947

Address: 15009 Gray Rd., Noblesville What to get: Epic Shrimp Burrito Price: $11 Mike G’s take: Whoa! The Epic Shrimp Burrito is packed with shrimp, tomato, rice, fries, salsa, picked onion and special sauce. Everything in the burrito complements each other, and each bite exudes the flavor from a different pocket. Everything is fresh. You can taste all the ingredients in every bite. All portions are filling. Lots of seafood in each order. What to try: • Epic Shrimp Burrito, $11 - Burrito packed with shrimp, tomato, rice, fries, salsa, picked onion and special sauce. Served with chips and salsa. • Power Bowl, $13 – A nice portion of shrimp, salmon and tilapia, brown rice, vegetables, avocado on a bed of lettuce with a really good dressing. If you’re going for a healthy meal, this is the way to go!

• Clobster Grilled Cheese, $15 - Exactly what it sounds like — a mix of crab and lobster and grilled cheese with a creamy herb sauce. Once you eat this, you can forget about eating a classic grilled cheese sandwich ever again. • Traditional Lobster Roll (market price) The classic lobster roll with huge pieces of lobster served on a warm bun with mayo and lemon. You can’t get fresh seafood for these prices anywhere. The restaurant prides itself on being fast/casual, providing fresh make-to-order meals in 10 minutes or less. For those not familiar with Noblesville, Slapfish owner Mark Weghorst is the son of Bill Weghorst, who owns Broccoli Bill’s. These two enterprises are the perfect marriage. Broccoli Bill’s is a neighborhood grocery that’s been serving fresh local produce for more than 20 years.

Behind bars: Tea Thyme Get it at Sun King Spirits, Carmel Ingredients: 1.5 oz. bourbon, .75 oz. matcha simple syrup, .5 oz. lemon juice, lemonade, mint sprigs, lemon wheel, thyme sprig Directions: Shake ingredients with mint sprigs and ice, double-strain over fresh ice and top with lemonade, lemon wheel and a thyme sprig.

Ready, set ... sit

Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt There’s a supervolcano under Yellowstone National Park called the Yellowstone Caldera that last erupted GRAMMAR GUY in a big way approximately 640,000 years ago. The next time it erupts, it could potentially result in a large swath of North America getting covered in ash, creating a sustained volcanic winter that kills roughly half the world’s population. Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, scientists at the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory warn against overreacting to reports that this supervolcano is overdue for another fullscale eruption. In fact, they reassure us that “recurrence intervals of these events are neither regular nor predictable.” Oh, good. Let’s not anger it. OK, let’s set aside the looming volcano apocalypse to talk about the words “sit” and “set.” These two are easily confused and often get mistakenly interchanged. Set means to “put something in a specific place.” Set is (almost always) a transitive verb. Transitive verbs are always action verbs and they always require direct objects. Direct objects act on another noun. Take the following sentence: We should set aside our differences; the big volcano could erupt at any time. “We” is the subject. “Set” is the transitive verb. “Differences” is the direct object. Sit means “to be seated.” Sit is an intransitive verb. Intransitive verbs are always action verbs and they do not require direct objects. Consider this example: You shouldn’t sit there; the supervolcano is directly beneath your feet! In the first complete thought before the semicolon, “you” is the subject and “sit” is the intransitive verb. The sentence has no direct object. Set requires another thing — you can set secret Oreos on top of the cabinet so your kids don’t know about them. When you sit, you sit yourself and nothing else. Depending on which version of the multiverse we inhabit presently, having a solid handle on “sit” and “set” could save us from total destruction.

Monastery worth the hike

Commentary by Don Knebel

Casual visitors to Petra in Jordan may assume that the carved monument just inside the entrance is the best TRAVEL that ancient city has to offer. A more imposing monument awaits anyone willing to climb a mountain to see it. In the fourth century B.C., the Nabateans, Arabs who controlled lucrative caravan trade routes, founded Petra as their capital in a remote mountain basin about 115 miles south of Amman, Jordan. By the first century B.C., the city covered several thousand acres and had a population of about 30,000. Its structures, many incorporating classic Greek architectural elements, were built both on the valley floor and carved into the faces of the mountains. The “Treasury,” once erroneously thought to contain gold, is the most famous of Petra’s structures, carved into a pink sandstone cliff at the end of the siq, a winding and narrow gorge that leads into the city from the east. Two miles or so northwest of the Treasury, a steep mountain path starting near the Basin Restaurant leads to a clearing

high above the valley floor. Donkeys are available for those not wanting or able to climb the more than 800 rock steps. The trek to the top, which takes about 45 minutes, passes by Bedouins selling souvenirs and refreshments and offers a spectacular view of the surrounding areas. The winding path ends at a massive building carved into the mountain crest that is taller and much wider than the Treasury. Dubbed the “Monastery” because of its later use as a church, it was probably originally a temple for worshipping Obadas, a deified Nabate-

an king. Celebrants congregated in the once-colonnaded flat area in front of the temple. A modern café inside a cave across from the Monastery allows weary climbers to relax and enjoy the surroundings before heading back down.
