NORTH CREEK Ñ Organizers of the Upper Hudson Bluegrass Festival will celebrate their 10th anniversary this year with 10 bands on Aug. 16-18 at the Ski Bowl Park. As with most bluegrass festivals, the bulk of the attendees will be camping at the event, and the Ski Bowl can accommodate up to about 220 sites. Last year, with the festival being scaled back to three days instead of four, fewer campers showed up, but co-or-
ganizer Lloyd Burch is optimistic more will find their way to North Creek and theyÕ ll have upwards of 180 campers this year. Festival board members will be looking for ways to add another day to next yearsÕ s schedule, which could entice more festival-goers. For now, plans for the 10th anniversary celebration is well under way, and many bands are new to the Upper Hudson Bluegrass Festival. Past favorite Vern Young, who had originally signed up, wonÕ t be able to make it this year due to health issues. In his place will be the Seth Sawyer Band, of the Green Mountain State. Sawyer and his wife, Candi, organize the Jenny Brook Bluegrass Fes-
tival in Tunbridge, Vt. every June. The other bands will be: Audie Blaylock & Redline, Lorraine Jordan & Carolina Road, the Spinney Brothers, Smokey Greene, the Katahdin Valley Boys, HoneyGrass, Washington County Line, Beartracks, and Amy Gallatin & Stillwaters. Smokey Green, by the way, is the only performer to appear on the Upper Hudson Bluegrass Festival stage for all 10 years.

Pearsall to release new book Aug. 4 By Andy Flynn
andy@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK Ñ Local author Glenn Pearsall will release his newest book Ñ Ò When Men and Mountains Meet: Stories of Hope and Despair in the Adirondack Wilderness after the American RevolutionÓ Ñ at a presentation and book-signing at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 4 at the Tannery Pond Community Center. “This will be my first of many presentations on the book,Ó Pearsall said. Ò I wanted to do my first at TPCC in recognition of all the local support and encouraged I have received for my writing. Book was five years in the researching and writing.Ó Pearsall Ñ a Johnsburg resident whose last book, Ò Echoes In These Mountains: Historic Sites and Stories Disappearing in Johnsburg, An Adirondack CommunityÓ was released in 2008 Ñ will combine a slide show with readings from the new book. He will also be signing books after the program in the art gallery. Ò When Men and Mountains MeetÓ discusses the Adirondacks from 1790 to 1820 and includes considerable unpublished material, such as letters of David Parrish and much detailed information about John Thurman. Ò The Adirondacks have a strong environmental history and there are many fine books that tell that story,” Pearsall said. Ò There are far fewer that address the cultural history of the place. There have been a few isolated attempts to write about the period 1790-1820 in small specific towns or villages, but this is the first time the entire story is told in a single collection. Furthermore, this work provides a larger context and perspective of the entire Adirondack Region and the world events at that time.Ó The book has received wide praise from a number of local authors and historians.
Ò For all who seek the history hidden by time and change on this landscape, this is your book,Ó said Caroline M. Welsh, Director Emerita, of the Adirondack Museum. Bill Mckibben, internationally-renown environmental writer and activist, said this books is Ò a fascinating look at the early history of a fascinating place. And a reminder that the remote Adirondacks were nonetheless part of the emerging republic, with all its glories and shames.Ó At 400 pages, Ò When Men and Mountains MeetÓ was published by North Country Books in Utica. It retails for $18.95. Pearsall will also present a public program at the Thurman Town Hall, 311 Athol Road, in Athol, at 7 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 6. The program is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served by event host, the John Thurman Historical Society. Pearsall keeps busy with all types of historic research. For example, with the national 150th commemoration of the Civil War in 2011, he researched and uncovered 175 Civil War soldiers with connections to the Adirondack town of Johnsburg. He presented that research using diaries and letters read by Civil War soldier re-enactors together with more than 100 historic pictures at presentations at the Tannery Pond Community Center in North Creek as well as the Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain Lake. In 2000, Pearsall and his wife, Carol, established the Glenn and Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation dedicated to improving the quality of life of year round residents of the Adirondack Park. When not pursuing a passion for history and philanthropy, Glenn is a senior partner and portfolio manager for a wealth management team in Glens Falls. He and his wife Carol live near the base of Crane Mountain in the Adirondacks.

NY Sec’y of State christens new Lake George wetlands By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ Twisting a T-bar wrench, New York Secretary of State Cesar Perales opened an underground valve that from now on will divert stormwater Ñ that for decades was dumped into West Brook and ran untreated into Lake George Ñ into engineered wetlands designed to purify contaminated water. Several dozen area leaders and environmental group officials applauded this ceremonial act that commemorated the culmination of a seven-year project Ñ one of the stateÕ s largest of its kind Ñ to prevent silt and other pollutants from tainting one of the nationÕ s cleanest lakes. The wetlands christening ceremony was held Tuesday July 30 off Rte. 8 just south of West Brook. The wetlands are the main feature of the 12-acre Charles Wood Park, now under development in Lake George. The park is not only intended to clean up stormwater in its expansive wetlands, but it will be hosting fitness trails, nature walkways and scenic overlooks. A 2.5-acre festival area is to include a large portable stage, a childrenÕ s adventure area, an interactive water fountain and a skateboard park as well as ecological parking. Perales smiled as he gazed over the wetlands, through which sewer runoff from state Rte. 9 will now flow — being filtered and purified by natural biological processes. Ò To protect Lake George Ñ one of the stateÕ s largest lakes and cleanest Ñ is very important not only to the local economy and environment, but to Gov. Cuomo, and to the state of New York,Ó he said. Perales praised the joint effort between the local municipalities, environmental groups and state government, noting that the engineered wetlands was a solution devised Ò through the creativity and determination of local citizens,Ó he said. Ò This is a fabulous project, and it represents what government should be doing,Ó he continued. Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson offered his thoughts after listening to PeralesÕ words. Dickinson had grown up near the park land in the 1950s, when it had been a natural wetlands before being filled in with thousands of tons of dirt and developed into Gaslight Village, a site for a tavern, and a parking lot. Dickinson said it was a milestone to see the plot restored to a

ing the lake clean forever and ever is our goal,Ó she said. Ò This is something future generations are going to benefit from.” Mayor Blais welcomed Perales and praised the role of the state Department of State for their $1.2 million investment in the park development project. Ò The lake is our economic engine and it puts passion in our hearts,Ó he said. Ò This is another important, great day for Lake George Ñ and the entire region.Ó After a quick tour of the upper wetlands in the park, Perales was transported via trolley to Bolton Landing, where he reviewed BoltonÕ s relatively new $1.1 million town pier, with nearby rain gardens and rest rooms. The Department of State contributed $495,000 toward developing these facilities, Bolton Supervisor Ron Conover said. Ò The pier put the Ô LandingÕ back in Ô Bolton Landing,Õ Ó he said, thanking Perales for his agencyÕ s investment.

NCCC proposes Ticonderoga expansion By Fred Herbst
fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA Ñ North Country Community College may expand its Ticonderoga campus to include the former LoweÕ s building. College officials plan to submit a funding application for a feasibility study that could lead NCCC to utilize the vacant store on Wicker Street and convert it to an applied technology center. Ò The vacant LoweÕ s facility has been on the minds of people in Ticonderoga,Ó Dr. Steve Tyrell, NCCC president, said. Ò IÕ ve been thinking about ways to ease the middle skills gap in the Adirondacks. I thought this might be a winwin for the college and the community.Ó Middle skills are those requiring more than a high school degree, but not a fouryear degree. If the project becomes reality, NCCC will expand its degree programs in Ticonderoga. Specific curriculum have not yet been identified, but Tyrell expects an emphasis on green technology. NCCC has asked other colleges, both two- and four-year institutions, to participate in the Ti program. “I can’t confirm any other colleges at this point, but I have had discussions with others,Ó Tyrell said. Ò A number of colleges are looking at the proposal and are excited about becoming part of a consortium of colleges.Ó Those colleges will be known soon. The deadline for the initial grant application is Aug. 12. Ò IÕ m very excited about the potential NCCC applied technology curriculum at the LoweÕ s building,Ó Ticonderoga Supervisor Deb Malaney
said. Ò A consortium of four colleges is discussing the possibilities of repurposing LoweÕ s to offer a variety of degree programs, including new green technology with a focus on biomass energy resources. Ò With this, the potential for additional incubator businesses would be very promising,Ó she added. Ò A CFA (state Consolidated Funding Application) application is expected to be submitted in August for the next round of the governorÕ s economic development funding. This project and the additional business opportunities it creates would have a great impact on our continuing efforts to revitalize Ti.Ó The Ticonderoga town board unanimously adopted a resolution supporting the NCCC proposal at its July meeting. NCCC can not purchase the LoweÕ s building, according Chattie VanWert, Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance executive director. It will likely rent it, which means the building will remain on the property tax roll. Ò NCCC can not own property, though its foundation could, so we would like to enter into a lease agreement with whoever would be able to negotiate the purchase of the building from LoweÕ s, possibly private investors,Ó VanWert said. Ò Therefore it would not come off the tax rolls so it works for everybody.Ó Jim Major, chairman of the Ticonderoga Revitalization Alliance board of directors, said the education center could bring students to Ticonderoga to study carpentry, plumbing, electrical trades, engineering, auto body work, diesel mechanics, marine technology and more. Ò For me, this is the most exciting potential project that TRA has been involved with,Ó
Major said. Ò TRA started conversations with Dr. Steve Tyrell of NCCC in January of this year to develop the concept of a trade school (applied technology center) to be located within Ticonderoga.Ó Tyrell said the proposed applied technology center could serve up to 450 students and could open in the fall of 2016. It will have no impact on the existing Ticonderoga campus or its programs, Tyrell said. The Ticonderoga program would be based on a similar program at SUNY-Alfred, where Tyrell worked before coming to NCCC. The Alfred program offers college-level carpentry, masonry, electrician and other construction trade training. It also integrates energy conservation, alternative energy use and sustainable building design education and training into its academic programs, focusing on green building technologies in New York State. Malaney, Major and other Ticonderoga representatives toured the Alfred facility this spring. Ò TRA visited Alfred to learn about their very successful trade school program,Ó Major said. Ò We learned that they have about 800 students being taught all of the trades from carpentry to electrical engineering. Their students mostly come from the western portion of New York leaving a void of services for the eastern half of New York and surrounding states and Canada.Ó Ò ItÕ s an amazing program,Ó Malaney said of Alfred. Ò ThereÕ s no reason we canÕ t have a similar program in the North Country.Ó Ò Alfred has a wonderful program; they do a great job,Ó Tyrell said. Ò I wanted to the Ticonderoga leaders to see, not just the curriculum, but the way itÕ s delivered. I want-
ed them to see how an applied learning program operates successfully.Ó Major said the additional students could generate $1.5 million in business for Ticonderoga. Ò Besides its offering handson education and the potential of good paying jobs to our youth, it will also offer millions of dollars of food and retail purchases to the benefit of TiÕ s business owners,Ó he said. ThatÕ s good, but Major and others believe the greatest economic impact could be from spin-off industry. Tyrell said the START-UP NY program could lead to businesses locating in Ticonderoga. That state program gives tax breaks to businesses aligned with the academic mission of a college campus, college or university. Participating companies in START-UP NY will not pay any taxes for 10 years. Employees in participating companies will pay no income taxes for the first five years. Ò Biomass energy is a critical resource,Ó Malaney said. Ò The whole country is seeking to become less dependent on fossil fuels. Europe and other countries are much further along than we are. Ò We hope this will allow us to attract additional businesses in the biomass energy industry,Ó she added. Ò We believe those companies will locate near an applied technology center specializing in biomass energy.Ó The biomass energy facility could also help existing Ti businesses.

The best $72,000 we’ll ever spend
E
very public school in every state should employ at least one school resource officer — and that position should be funded by the federal government. It is time we put as much effort into protecting our kids as we do our politicians and airports. And it is time that politicians stop using school shootings to further political agendas like gun control instead of formulating a meaningful plan that might actually stop some of these instances from happening altogether. The answer should begin with a police presence in our schools. Following the Dec. 14, 2012 elementary school shootings in Sandy Hook, Conn. that killed 20 children and six adults, parents of the Ticonderoga school district asked for just that — a full-time police officer assigned to the district. Unfortunately, the Ticonderoga Police Department simply does not have the manpower to fulfill that request. At times, there is only one officer on duty, and having that officer patrolling only the school would not serve the needs of the community as a whole. To the departmentÕ s credit, they have agreed to increase patrols at the districtÕ s three schools and will be there during morning arrival and afternoon dismissal. ThatÕ s a start, as are security upgrades made by area schools such as locating cameras throughout buildings, locking doors and requiring identification to enter during school hours. But is it enough? The answer, is no. We pour billions of dollars every year into homeland security. We place full-body scanners at our airports. We surround our elected officials with nearly impenetrable systems and security details costing taxpayers millions. And yet we canÕ t afford to protect our kids at school? Why should it be so difficult to protect our nationÕ s most precious and vulnerable people Ñ our children? Ti PD Chief Mark Johns has the right idea. He suggested a full-time school resource officer be hired and assigned to the school. The officer, Johns said, could serve several purposes, including security for the school as well as keeping a trained professional available in the event of an emergency. “And school resource officers often build a rapport with young people,Ó he said. Ò That makes it easier for them to approach police when they have a problem or concern. That can
also help police with investigations.Ó The hurdle? It would cost $72,000 a year to add a school resource officer. Johns searched for grant money but came up empty-handed. WeÕ re going to go out on a limb here and say the state spent more than $72,000 taxying Gov. Cuomo around in a state police helicopter two weeks ago so he could win his own rafting festival in Indian Lake. Add to that what taxpayers shelled out to protect him while he was here Ñ he had a security detail and entourage Ñ and you could probably pay the salary of a public resource officer for years to come with that kind of money. ItÕ s about priorities, plain and simple. Or should we say lack thereof, and our school kids are getting the short end of the security stick. It is time to put an end to that. If the Obama Administration and our federal lawmakers really want to make a meaningful impact on decreasing the number or severity of school shootings, they should put their money where their mouths are and fund full-time resource officers for every public school in the nation. Do we want shootouts in our schools? Of course not. But these would be professional officers patrolling our hallways, trained to use lethal force only as a last resort when the lives of children are at stake. It could operate much like the Federal Air Marshal Service. The consequence of improperly discharging a firearm on a plane would undoubtedly be a major tragedy Ñ and yet the air marshals, because of their training and equipment, have an impeccable record. We feel properly trained and equipped school marshals could serve in a similar capacity. At the same time, they would be a deterrent to crime, just as air marshals are in our skies. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that bad guys with a gun are more apt to commit a crime where they arenÕ t going to encounter a good guy with a gun. And, letÕ s be honest. WeÕ re never going to have total control of all firearms in this nation, and weÕ re not going to cure every mentally ill individual with a penchant for killing. There is always going to be evil in this world. We spend an incredible amount of money attempting to keep that evil from our airports, train stations, government centers and other places of public assembly. It is time we do the same for our schools. Ñ

Washout idles trains over holiday; new rail events set By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com NORTH CREEK Ñ Passenger service on the Saratoga-North Creek railroad was suspended for five days over the Fourth of July holiday weekend due to a rail-bed washout, a railway official told county leaders Monday July 29. The service interruption from July 3 through July 8 was caused by flash flooding which washed out gravel underneath rail ties over an 850-feet stretch of the rail bed in the town of Greenfield, railway superintendent Justin Gonyo said. Substantial lengths of railway shoulders were also eroded, he said. Over 100 feet of the damaged stretch of rail bed, the track sunk 3 inches, which prohibited Saratoga-North Creek Railway from running trains at speeds greater than 10 miles per hour, he said. Due to the repairs necessary to restore full service, the railway suspended its daily runs, he added. Reconstructing the rail bed required laying down 600 tons of stone under the ties. Gonyo said the cost of repairs was $34,079, plus an additional $7,929 in operational losses from the shutdown. The contract between Warren County which owns the track and the railroad operators call for the railway to pay for repairs costing less than $50,000. Repairs exceeding that sum to be negotiated between the county and the railway. Gonyo said the washout was caused by a heavy rain sweeping brush, debris and limbs into a storm culvert Ñ blocking it up Ñ which caused water to back up and erode the rail bed. During the passenger service suspension, the railway continued to carry freight. Gonyo noted that the railway is now negotiating to transport as much as 500,000 tons of stone next summer from Tahawus to Troy. Plans also call for the enterprise to move 1,000 tons of Ò rip-rapÓ stones off the Barton Mines property. He also said that a meeting was scheduled this week between Saratoga-North Creek Railway management and Canadian-Pacific executives to negotiate fright transportation. Ò WeÕ re going into this very hopeful,Ó he said.

featuring the historic Leviathan steam-engine locomotive were now being planned for one weekend Ñ Saturday Sept. 14 and Sunday Sept. 15 Ñ rather than two. The similar Leviathan trips once scheduled for the prior weekend were cancelled due to problems in getting the locomotive to upstate New York, he said. The Leviathan excursions feature an 82-mile round trip from Corinth to North Creek, complimentary beverages and
snacks on train, a barbecue lunch in North Creek, and admission to the North Creek Depot Museum. The weekend of Sept. 14-15 is being celebrated in North Creek as the Teddy Roosevelt Weekend, including Joe Wiegand impersonating the 26th U.S. president, arts and trades demonstrations, tours, period musical entertainment, and Ò Rough RiderÓ pony rides. The two-day event also includes re-enactments of
RooseveltÕ s famous boarding of the train at North Creek hours before he assumed the presidency. Gonyo also announced that the railwayÕ s Saratoga Dinner Train excursions set for the three last Tuesday evenings in August were attracting dozens of reservations soon after being announced.

Three Warren County roads endorsed for repair By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Faced with reports of dozens of deteriorating roadways, Warren County leaders have endorsed a plan to repair short stretches of the three roads that present the most urgent threat to public safety. Warren County supervisors on the county Public Works Committee voted July 29 to repave portions of Olmstedville Road in Chester, Hadley Road in Stony Creek, and Harrington Hill in Warrensburg. The road repair approval was prompted by the county having $136,000 left over after completing about $1.38 million in road repair projects so far this year. For years, county supervisors have cut millions of dollars from the funds allocated for highway resurfacing in order to balance their annual budget, although county Public Works Superintendent Jeff Tennyson has warned them that postponing paving projects leads to far greater future expenses to tackle comprehensive road reconstruction. The need to cut the county budget, however, prevailed in recent years due to the financial stresses prompted by the recession and the stateÕ s municipal tax cap. Tennyson reminded the supervisors July 29 of the ever-present need for county highway resurfacing. “I could fill four pages with road projects,” he said, after presenting a list one-third page long of 13 roadways that needed repaving. They included Valentine Pond Road in Horicon, River St. in Warrensburg, Harrisburg Road in Stony Creek, New Hague Road in Hague, Horicon Ave. in Bolton, Pilot Knob Road in Lake George, East River Drive in Lake Luzerne, South Johnsburg Road in Thurman and Garnet Lake Road in Johnsburg. He said the 13 roads listed were Ò just a samplingÓ of what needed to be done. County Deputy Public Works Superintendent Kevin Hajos noted that ruts and potholes on some stretches of roadway in the county could cause motorcyclists to veer off the pavement. Thurman Supervisor Evelyn Wood responded by urging that the three roadways that were in the worst shape to be repaired as soon as possible. Her motion was approved unanimously
Potholes and rutted pavement on county highways throughout Warren County have concerned highway officials for years, while municipal leaders have slashed highway repair appropriations in order to balance their budgets. For the first time in many years, the state legislature has budgeted a substantial increase in aid to local municipalities for road and infrastructure repair. It’s about time — state highway officials have been warning for years that the state’s roadways, due to recent years’ budget cuts, have been deteriorating at an ever-faster rate and may require massive amounts of taxpayer money to restore them to historic standards. County supervisors voted Monday July 29 to have three short stretches of roadway resurfaced, leaving dozens of more recommended highway resurfacing projects left to tackle in the future.

by the committee. Their vote is subject to approval Aug. 17 by the full board of supervisors. The stretch of the Olmstedville Road to be
paved is about a half-mile long on the S-turns; the portion of Hadley Road to be resurfaced is a one-third mile segment just outside the Stony
Creek hamlet, and the stretch of Harrington Hill Road slated for repair is a mile long at the top of the hill.

Gibson Brothers, James King share favorite songs Mandolin players adapting By Andy Flynn
andy@denpubs.com OAK HILL Ñ Was it coincidence or fate that brought James King and the Gibson Brothers together July 19 at the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, sharing a stage and possibly a recording this coming winter? These back-to-back International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Emerging Artists of the Year Ñ the James King Band in 1997 and the Gibson Brothers in 1998 Ñ presented an evening workshop, Ò Our Favorite Songs,Ó under the Creekside Stage tent after their afternoon sets on the High Meadow Stage. It was classic North meets South, with the Gibson Brothers hailing from New York and James King from Virginia. Ò I want to hear some of that wonderful brother harmony,Ó King said on stage, standing with his guitar between Eric and Leigh Gibson. Ò Basically what youÕ re witnessing tonight for the first time, and I hope not the last time, you’re witnessing a Gibson Brothers-James King sandwich.Ó In all, King and the Gibson Brothers band Ð Eric and Leigh, Mike Barber on bass, Clayton Campbell on fiddle, and Jesse Brock on mandolin Ð played 10 of their favorite songs: Ò Why DonÕ t You Tell Me So,Ó Ò I Just Think IÕ ll Go Away,Ó Ò Dig a Hole in the Meadow,Ó Ò Crazy Heart,Ó Ò More and More,Ó Ò In the Shadows of My Mind,Ó Ò LoveÕ s Gonna Live Here Again,Ó Ò Ring the Bell,Ó Ò How Mountain Girls Can Love,Ó and Ñ for the encore Ñ Ò Think of What YouÕ ve Done.Ó Ò IÕ ve never done that song before,Ó King said after playing Ò Dig a Hole in the Meadow.Ó Ò IÕ m learning all kinds of new things ... AinÕ t it fun to pick with somebody you never picked with before?Ó This may have been their first time on stage together, but it may not be the last. Ò I suggest that me and the Gibson Brothers go in the studio and record a song this winter,Ó King said. Ò It would be fun.Ó It may also be fun for their fans, of which they have many. And their

awards are piling up, too. James King is the 2013 Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America (SPBGMA) Male Vocalist of the Year (traditional), and the Gibson Brothers are the 2012 IBMA Entertainers of the Year. In another twist of fate, the mandolin player who was performing with King on the Creekside Stage Ñ Jesse Brock Ñ also played on the James King BandÕ s upcoming Rounder release Ñ Ò Three Chords and the Truth.Ó Ò Ken Irwin of Rounder Records gave me a call and said they were putting this project together and asked if I was interested in being a part of it,Ó Brock said after the Ò Favorite SongsÓ performance. Ò I said, Ô Sure.Õ That was a no-brainer for me. I love JamesÕ s music, and itÕ s been about a year, a year and a half since we did it in the studio.Ó Adjusting to life on the road with Eric and Leigh Gibson has been a natural process for Brock, who spent his childhood touring with his own musical family. Ò I already feel like a brother. I feel like a Gibson,Ó Brock said. Ò IÕ ve known the guys since the Õ 90s when they were in the infant stage of their career, and itÕ s great to see them blossom into

such a wonderful group with great business minds. TheyÕ ve, along the way, acquired the know-how to stay in business, and IÕ m glad to be a part of it and be part of the team.Ó Since late June, the Gibson Brothers and the James King Band both acquired new mandolin players. Brock, who signed on June 19, met David Watson Jr. of the James King Band informally for the first time backstage between the bandsÕ sets. Watson, playing his eighth show with King in a few weeks, was so fresh that Chance Leadbetter was still listed as mandolin player on the James King BandÕ s website during Grey Fox. Watson is a 20-year-old from West Union, W. Va., and his introduction to bluegrass began at the age of 9, while he was playing the electric guitar. Ò My grandma told me about this jam session going on, but she said I had to bring my acoustic guitar,Ó Watson said in the Grey Fox hospitality tent. Ò And I wondered, Ô What the heck? Why?Õ So I did, and it turned out to be bluegrass. So that’s the first time I played bluegrass, and I’ve been doing it ever since.Ó A few years later, Watson began playing mandolin, filling in for several bands and had
been touring with a country band the past year before James King hired him. Ò I emailed him and sent him some recordings I had,Ó Watson said. Ò He liked what he heard, I guess, and he had me down to his house to meet him. He decided to hire me on board.Ó Being the youngest and newest member of the band, adjustments have to be made, and thereÕ s always something to learn. Ò I guess the biggest thing IÕ m learning right now is how to travel and work the maps and drive all night,Ó Watson said. Ò We got here just a few hours before we played with no sleep, and weÕ re not going to be sleeping this night, either, except a little bit on the van, I guess.Ó As for learning the music, Watson spent some quality time with KingÕ s many recordings. “I had about five days to learn 30 songs, so I spent a lot of hours memorizing the choruses and getting the harmony down,Ó Watson said. Ò But it just takes a lot of practice playing along with CDs and the metronome.Ó On July 20, the James King Band flew out to the West Coast for a 10-day tour of northern California and Washington state. On the same day, the Gibson Brothers flew out to Ohio for a performance. Once the festival season is behind them, perhaps theyÕ ll meet in the studio for that recording King suggested.

Staycations a family tradition in the Adirondacks By Andy Flynn
andy@denpubs.com
F
inances are tight, and we canÕ t afford to go away for vacation this summer. Now what? IÕ m sure there are many who are saying the same thing this year. ItÕ s frustrating, especially when youÕ re ready to take off and explore some unfamiliar territory. But instead of crying about it Ñ or worse, working through the vacation Ñ my wife and I will probably just argue about it. Wife: What do you want to do? Husband: I donÕ t know. What do you want to do? Wife: I asked you first. Husband: Let me think about it. (Two hours later) Wife: So, what do you want to do? Husband: I donÕ t know. What do you want to do? Wife: You said you would think about it. Husband: I did. Wife: So, what do you want to do? Husband: I donÕ t know. What is there to do? (Two days later, weÕ re still arguing.) Then I say, Ò LetÕ s go to Lake Placid.Ó ThereÕ s no brilliance in this idea; I drive through Lake Placid every day on my way to
work. But I had to say something. After a heaving sigh and a roll of my wifeÕ s eyes, weÕ re talking about Ò going south,Ó which for us is North Creek, Lake George or Ticonderoga. A day trip. Sometimes we talk about going north, which for us is Plattsburgh, but IÕ m not a big Plattsburgh fan. All she wants to do is shop, which I hate doing. And itÕ s not like we have any money, so Plattsburgh days are filled with walking around stores looking at stuff we canÕ t afford. ThatÕ s why I like to get away. But the main challenge for us Ñ aside from the funding — is to find a day trip no more than eight hours from our home in Saranac Lake (we can’t always find a dog sitter). It’s a three-hour round-trip to North Creek or Ticonderoga, a little more than that for Lake George. ItÕ s an hour to Blue Mountain Lake, a little more than that for Indian Lake. So that gives us a maximum of five hours to explore a territory in the central or southeastern Adirondacks. Another challenge is to find activities that fit our capabilities and tastes equally. And then we have to find places we’ve never seen before, which can be difficult in the Adirondacks but certainly not impossible. In this issue, weÕ ve listed a number of places to see and things to do for families in a similar situation. WeÕ ll be looking at it closely. Happy staycation!

Adirondack Made logs ready for the mill! Photo by Rich Redman
American made organic heat
N
o matter where you live, the saying seems to be, Ò wait a minute and the weather will change.Ó From the west coast to the eastern Adirondacks, they all say it! The 90 degree steamy days seem to be over, and fall is slowing working its way to our region. It wonÕ t be very long before the winds of winter blow, the temperature will be below zero and we will have something new to complain about. Too hot, too cold; it doesnÕ t matter. Someone will complain. ItÕ s human nature to complain about natureÕ s way. I look forward to winter. ItÕ s a time to slow down and enjoy a stack of good books and enjoy By Rich Redman the warmth of a wood stove burning and churning out BTUÕ s to heat the house. Reading during the summer when thereÕ s work to do, is something I just canÕ t do. ThereÕ s always something to do, like cutting, hauling and stacking firewood during the long summer days. It may be warm today, but you really need to be thinking about getting a load or two of fire wood delivered to your door for tomorrow. Yes, wood is locally produced, organic, renewable and sustainable heat that is in tune with nature. There is nothing like walking into the house after a cold day out in the woods. The hot dry air warms like no other heat. Fire wood from local trees is a renewable resource fuel that when burned, releases carbon monoxide. However, when a tree is cut, new growth starts from the area where the old tree stood and shaded the ground. Through the process of photosynthesis, carbon is then taken back out of the atmosphere, and utilized by the growing trees. There is a natural balance between what is released and what is stored if a woodlot stays a woodlot. Flipping a switch and letting the oil burner make my heat is not what I like for many reasons. One of which is, that stored carbon burned as oil, that was made eons ago is released and the balance of stored carbon versus released, is broken. When we burn fuel oil and gas along with a list of other things that release carbon we are releasing more carbon than we store, and that is where the problem is. Secondly, when we have acres and acres of unmanaged woodlands around us and we heat with oil produced in some foreign nation, well that really doesnÕ t make much sense to me. We transport oil from a country 1,000 miles away to heat our homes when all we have to do is look out the window and see thousands of acres of potential fuel if managed properly. Not only would we get fuel, we can create wildlife habitat, have managed sugar bushes, and other fruit and nut tree crops. I support the oil companies enough when I fill my car and truck with gas. I really donÕ t want to spend all my money on foreign fuel when I can spend it on Adirondack, organic, locally grown heat. With the proper woodstove and chimney setup, you can enjoy wood heat in your house and know that you are supporting locally grown fuels and businesses. Whether you get cord wood delivered or have a wood pellet stove, you are spending your hard earned money locally. That is important in keeping an Adirondack community alive. Far too many small businesses have left or gone out of business because of the lack of community support. Many Adirondack communities are based on agriculture and forestland ownership. Keeping them profitable helps keep communities thriving. We have far too many empty store fronts and vacant buildings in our area. ItÕ s easy to blame Walmart or some other box store, but it all boils down to the consumer. You make the final decision where to buy. I am not opposed to Ò wally worldÓ or McDonaldÕ s, or any other business trying to make a living. I shop at some of these places but I also try to buy from farmers markets, local fire wood suppliers and local lumber yards. Our society is leaning toward locally produced vegetables and grass-fed meats, as well as other products. That is good. We need to do more though! We must support our local industry by purchasing local agriculture and forest products. We need to look at more locally produced organic heat for our homes, schools, and businessÕ s. Economics plays a serious part in purchasing fuel and it seems every time we lean toward an alternative fuel, the price of oil drops just enough to make the alternative, a non-alternative. In the long run though, we really need to think about what will be stable for our area. Forest products and agriculture are our key industries so letÕ s support them as much as possible. Buy your food from a local farmer, buy your fire wood or wood pellets from local suppliers and build as much as possible from local woods. Have a local carpenter or cabinet maker build your next piece of furniture. Let’s keep the money close to home where the profits will improve our neighborhoods and our childrenÕ s lives. LetÕ s not send our hard earned dollars elsewhere! Make sure you have a proper woodstove and chimney that meets local codes and is inspected before you start to heat with your local organic woods. Modern stoves have fewer emissions than old styles and are very efficient for heat production. Work with a chimney sweep to maintain your chimney and stove so you and your family stay safe.
Conservation
Conversations
Ribbons of fog often cap the summit of Whiteface Mountain during the early morning hours. The sight offers a reminder of what’s to come as the summer season segways towards autumn. The Adirondack summer has always been a dwarf on the annual calendar.
Ahhh…summertime, and the livin’ is easy
A
s I grow older, it seems the summer season has become much more fleeting than it was in my younger days, when the prospect of returning to a classroom was a constant lingering threat. While I understand the rationale behind the concept that a personÕ s perception of time is altered as they age Ñ It is an odd fact that while some summer days appear to last forever; the weeks and months seem to move faster than a dollar sign at the gas pump. The inescapable truth is the duration of our days is extended as a result of the quantity of activities we manage to pack into them. A long day may include a morning hike, some swimming, some diving, a lazy canoe float and a bit of casting even if the fish don’t want to cooperate. But when the fish do decide to provide a bit of entertainment, time stops for a while; or it can even allow one to regress. IÕ ve known many men, and ladies for that matter, who are reduced to the state of giddy, little kids at the mere shadow of a trout approaching their fly. This pattern of activity based regression is in fact the definition of recreation, which when broken down is simply to recreate, our spirit, our enthusiasm, and our reasons for living. Some folks have a need to achieve in order to get their dose of recreation, of which the recent Ironman USA is a classic example. Run, bike, and swim is fine for some, while many others prefer to drink, grill and snooze. To each his own, sport. IÕ ve also noticed the lack of time IÕ ve spent in camp this summer has had a drastic effect on my understanding of the season. There have been far fewer nights spent around the fire, watching the sparks intermingle with a million stars overhead, as fireflies continue to blink and flicker off and on in the pitch blackness. The rivers have remained quite high this season, and their waters have been rather cool. However, lake temperatures are now comparable to bathwater and the rope swings have been busy. The night skies have remained as brilliant as I can ever recall, and the morningÕ s fog equally as thick. The recent cool nights have offered up numerous examples of natureÕ s extraordinary ribbony masterpieces, which have been as fascinating to view from the valleys as from the mountaintops. Such scenes are always compounded by the appearance of a full moon, a brilliant sunset or other natural attractions. Although autumn will always remain my favored season for a number of good reasons, summer chases right along in a hard second. It is a youthful season, and one of the most fleeting available in our little neck of the woods. Although it brings with it a myriad of inconveniences which include muggy heat, rain, bugs, clogged roads and busy streets; the summer always serves to brings back our youth. And I wouldnÕ t trade that for all the Bluebird days of autumn, winter or spring combined. Where have the butterflies gone? For me, one of the surest signs of the summer season has always been the preponderance of butterflies in our backyard, which is overgrown with a thick swath of milkweed plants. To date, I have not witnessed a single monarch in the air or on the plants. Nor have I seen a single yellow swallowtail butterfly, sipping water along the edge of any stream, brook, creek, river or seep. Often, while wading the Boquet over the years, it has
become quite common to encounter a rabble of swallowtails gathered along a wet riverbank. It is always a joy to witness a rabble take to the air, and float along gently on the air currents of a river corridor. I never realized how much I enjoyed the sight, until itÕ s been gone. I do hope it is just a cycle with the swallowtails. However, the dire situation of the monarchs may be a far different matter. Entomologists have discovered a dramatic drop in monarch populations all across North America. It is believed to be the result of last yearÕ s combination of severe weather events, which included droughts, high winds, heavy rains and a prolonged cold snap during the spring migration. As a result of last summerÕ s droughts and the spring seasonÕ s rains, the massive monarch migration, which extends from Mexico to Canada, was decimated. According to various reports, there is a very real possibility that no monarchs will be found in the northern air this summer, which would be very sad. However, if you do need to see some monarchs, I highly recommend The Wild CenterÕ s newest movie, Ò Flight of the Monarchs,Ó which documents the popular butterfly’s incredible annual journey from the mountains of Mexico to the fields of North America. It is available daily at 11 a.m., noon and 4 p.m. The Wild Center in Tupper Lake, aka The Natural History Museum of the Adirondacks, showcases the natural world of the region with a quality comparable to the Adirondack MuseumÕ s display of the human history. They are two facilities that make me wish for more rainy days. Ò Normally we have hundreds of millions of Monarchs in Quebec and Eastern Canada, and now we have 90 percent of that at least,Ó noted Montreal InsectariumÕ s entomologist, Maxim LarrivŽ e in a recent interview that was published online. In fact, monarch populations have continued to suffer a severe drop in population during the past seven years, with as few as one-fifteenth the numbers that were in the air just two decades ago. The familiar black and orange species has been in serious decline for a while, and if populations continue the downward spiral; monarchs may no longer be a familiar fixture of the North Country summer.

Bluegrass festival
News Enterprise - 19
Authors, artsist
Performances will be held from noon to 10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 16, 9 a.m. to 10:45 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 17, and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 18. In 2004, Joel Beaudin and Rusty Leigh founded the Upper Hudson Bluegrass Festival. Ò Joel was looking to sponsor an annual event for the community that would showcase the North Creek area while making enough income to support local individuals and organizations, through donations,Ó Burch said Ò Rusty Leigh had long traveled the bluegrass circuit, developing many connections and contacts with the entertainers and fans, dreaming that one day a bluegrass festival might find a home in his community.” Thus the Upper Hudson Bluegrass Festival was born. First they needed a location: the Ski Bowl Park. Then they needed a stage, so they hurried up and built one. “Some might remember that the stage for the fledgling first festival wasn’t quite complete,” Burch said. “A newly formed band, named Acoustic Blue, was performing that first evening when it started to rain. While the band performed, Joel and Rusty created a plastic shelter over the stage, saving the day.Ó Burch says much has changed in the past 10 years. The group Ñ Upper Hudson Festivals, Inc. Ñ is now a 501-c-3 not-for-profit organization and gives back to the community and school. Organizers have continued to improve the stage and Ski Bowl facilities. The festival include a selection of vendors for souvenirs and food. Sound will be provided by Green Mountain Music, Pete and Cora Bolster. Don Sprague will be returning as the emcee. The media sponsor is NCPR. And, best of all, people donÕ t have to camp in order to enjoy the festival. Day tickets are available: $25pp Friday, $30 Saturday and $15 Sunday. Also, itÕ s only $15pp each evening after 5 p.m. Kids 15 and under are free with a parent. Three-day tickets, purchased in advance, are $50pp before Aug. 9 or $60pp at the gate. Three-day tickets include camper parking, fresh water fill-up, and a “for extra fee” pump out Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. Please call for specific camper parking information.

funds for Wayne Bukovinsky, who was involved in a serious motorcycle accident. Wayne is slowly recovering thanks to all the people who donated to his cause. As a way of giving back to the community, Wayne started the North Country Hardship Fund to raise money for others who have suffered tragedies, such as a fire or a major illness. The small grants are designed to help people until bigger help arrives. The North Country Hardship Fund raises money through donations and benefits, such as Wayne Stock, and serves five counties: Warren, Essex, Hamilton, Washington and Saratoga. The North Country Hardship Fund has given out $64,000 to families in need since 2010. Wayne Stock alone brought in about $32,000 just last year, and this will be the eventÕ s sixth year. For more information, contact the Bukovinskys at 251-4122. Also visit the North Country Hardship fund online via their website, www. northcountryhardshipfund.org, or on their Facebook group.
