“In journalism, there has always been a tension between getting it first and getting it right.” —ELLEN GOODMAN
BULLETIN WHAT HAPPENED • The Door County Sheriff’s Department issued a report on Aug. 18 detailing the results of the investigation into the death of Dr. Jeffrey Whiteside, the 63-year-old pulmonary specialist who disappeared from Ephraim on June 29. His body was discovered on July 22 just off German Road in the Town of Liberty Grove. A .22 caliber Ruger revolver was recovered at the scene. The handgun had been discharged once. A firearm trace was completed on Aug. 6 by the Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The trace indicated the handgun was purchased by a sporting goods company in Iowa in 1963. Interviews with siblings of Dr. Whiteside revealed that this store was frequented by their father. A gun case recovered from the Whiteside boat had an impression mark that matched the revolver. Ammunition found in that case was similar to the ammunition that was in the gun. On Aug. 14 the Brown County Medical Examiner’s Office completed their report. The manner of death was determined to be suicide. The estimated date of death was June 29, 2015, time unknown. No drugs or alcohol were identified in the toxicology reports. • By virtue of the resignation of Supervisor Ben Meyer, effective Aug. 13, 2015, the Door County Board District No. 7 Supervisor position is vacant. District No. 7 encompasses the City of Sturgeon Bay – Wards 1, 2 and 29. Those wishing to be considered for appointment to the vacant Door County Board District No. 7 Supervisor position must submit a letter of interest to County Board Chairperson Dan Austad, c/o of the County Administrator, 421 Nebraska St., Sturgeon Bay, WI 54235, or email to lholtz@co.door.wi.us. Letters of interest must be received by 4 pm, Aug. 28, 2015. Following a vetting process, County Board Chairperson Austad will nominate a person to fill the vacant Door County Board District No. 7 Supervisor position. This nomination is subject to confirmation by the County Board. The successful nominee will serve for the residue of the unexpired term (to April 18, 2016).
COMING UP

COUNTY
• The Door County Planning and Emergency Services Departments are in the process of developing a multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan in compliance with Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) requirements. Having a hazard mitigation plan certified by FEMA enables municipalities to apply for both preand post-disaster hazard mitigation funding. Meetings have been scheduled in order to present these draft chapters to and gather input from local officials, public administrators and the public. Sept. 21, 4 – 6 pm, Forestville Town Hall, Maplewood, 7705 County Hwy. H; Sept. 28, 4 – 6 pm, Peninsula Room, Door County Government Center, 421 Nebraska St., Sturgeon Bay; Sept. 29, 4 – 6 pm, Egg Harbor Town Hall, 5242 County Hwy. I.
There will be a short presentation at approximately 4:15 pm, repeated again at 5:15 pm. Participants will have the opportunity to review and comment on the risk assessment chapter, which describes natural and nonnatural hazards that have occurred in the county in the past, and hazards that may potentially affect the county in the future. Participants will also have the opportunity to review the mitigation strategies chapter, which includes specific actions, projects, activities, or processes taken to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from the impact of hazards. These documents and maps may be found on the Planning Department’s website at map.co.door.wi.us/planning/HazardMitigation-Plan.htm or viewed at the Planning Department during regular business hours (8 am - 4:30 pm, Monday - Friday). Comments regarding the plan may be submitted at any time by email to rkerwin@co.door.wi.us, by fax to 920.746.2387, or by mail to Door County Planning Department, 421 Nebraska St., Sturgeon Bay, WI 54235. • Russ Feingold, announced candidate for the U.S. Senate, is the featured speaker at the Door County Democrats’ annual Picnic Saturday, Aug. 29. Feingold served three terms in the Senate, earning a reputation as a principled populist. Among his notable achievements were co-authorship of the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Bill, and the only senator to vote against the Patriot Act. He was the recipient of the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award. He advocated for a single-payer health care system, women’s reproductive rights and same-sex marriage at a time when these were radical ideas. He fulfilled his campaign promise to hold a “listening session” each year in each of Wisconsin’s 72 counties. Here is an opportunity to meet Russ face-to-face and hear his plans for the 2016 election. Russ will be introduced by state Senator Dave Hansen. The picnic will be held at Sawyer Park Pavilion (at the west end of the Oregon Street bridge), starting at 4 pm. Admission is $7 per adult, $2 children 12 and under, age 3 and under, free, and a salad or dessert dish to pass per family. A capacity crowd is expected, so reservations are encouraged. Reservations can be made online by going to doordems.org and following the prompts, or by sending your check to Door Dems, PO Box 863, Sturgeon Bay, WI 54235. • The Door County Silent Sports Alliance and the Sturgeon Bay Police Department have teamed up for a bike rodeo to be held from 6 to 7:30 pm on Monday, Aug. 24, at Bay View Lutheran Church, Sturgeon Bay. The event is geared for 2nd through 6th graders, but all ages are welcome. Bike checks will be performed, so bring your bike with you. Participants will receive a Bell bike helmet donated by Habush, Habush & Rottier, S.C. Participants can also register their bikes with the police department.

Former Supervisor Hopes Someone Young Applies for His Post by JIM LUNDSTROM jim@ppulse.com
W
hen Ben Meyer went from substitute teacher to being hired as a 4th grade teacher at Sunrise Elementary School in Sturgeon Bay for the coming school year, he thought he might still be able to fulfill his duties as county board supervisor for District 7 in Sturgeon Bay. But he realized that “this first year of teaching is going to be wonderfully overwhelming and will take up a lot of my time,” he said. “The citizens of Door County deserve someone who can put a little more effort into it. I’m hoping they find someone excellent to do just that.” Meyer did find that while serving as a substitute teacher during the 2014-15 school year it was hard to make the county board’s morning meetings. “There is an unwritten rule that you really need to have time available during the day to be able to function on the county board. I would very much like to see that change,” Meyer said. “It’s one of those things that’s it’s always been that way. There’s not really a good reason for it. Meetings can be run more efficiently. They can happen less frequently and they can happen at times of day so people who have day jobs can attend and hopefully serve.” At 38 and as the second youngest member of the board – Washington Island Supervisor Joel Gunnlaugsson is a couple months younger – Meyer was several decades younger than most of his colleagues on the county board. “I would like to see a younger person step up. I think there’s a great opportunity for young adults to serve on the county board,” he said. “I think that perspective from the retired age is definitely well represented on the county board and is very valuable with the years of experience and the wisdom that comes with it. What we could use is some more of the movers and shakers, the business owners, the people whose kids are still in school. I think the young person’s perspective is needed.” Meyer joined the county board in 2008, and at the same time was serving on the Sturgeon Bay Common Council. “I got on the city council first and then the county board,” he said. “I got into local politics shortly after becoming a father and realizing that someone needs to look out for the interests of the next generation. I thought this was a way for me to do that.” Meyer said his proudest moment serving on the board was being involved in the creation of the Door County Bicycle, Pedestrian and Recreational Facilities Master Plan. “I and other members of the community, along with John Kolodziej [the county highway commissioner], and members of the Planning Dept., we got together and wrote the grant to get that rolling and have shepherded

that through, and now it’s officially adopted,” he said. “Over the next 10, 20 years, I’m looking forward to seeing that plan implemented as county roads come up for reconstruction.” He is also proud to be a part of a county board that went to electronic agenda packages rather than huge packets of paper for all 21 members. “We were kind of pioneers in the world of Wisconsin county government to use tablets,” he said. “I distinctly remember being a part of a meeting where we calculated the cost savings of not using paper for our meeting packets. It was very clear after making those simple calculations that these tablet computers really will save taxpayers’ money.” But he believes the county could do even more. “The county uses more paper than it needs to, which delays the speed at which we do business,” Meyer said. Asked what advice he might give his successor, Meyer said that person should get to know county government operations. “I would advise them to meet with the department heads and get to know what each department does,” he said. “Ask for tours and go on tours. And really get to the bottom of what the county does. We do a lot of different things that aren’t very visible to the public.” Meyer was the second supervisor to resign from the county board this month. Former District 18 Supervisor Holly Runquist submitted her resignation effective Aug. 7. She was one of three women on the 21-member board. The county is accepting applications for the District 7 and 18 supervisor positions through 4 pm on Aug. 28. Submit a letter of interest to County Board Chair Dan Austad, c/o of the County Administrator, 421 Nebraska St., Sturgeon Bay, WI 54235, or email to lholtz@co.door.wi.us. The successful nominee will serve to April 18, 2016.

Village of Egg Harbor: Among changes the village board recently made to its public nuisance ordinance is one that bans a popular 4th of July Parade practice of people on floats squirting the audience with water. The ordinance bans “Throwing, launching any projectile, water balloon, toy or object as well as shooting any water cannon, hose, squirt gun, aerosol (silly) string while participating in or as a spectator of any public concert, parade, gathering or assembly.” “Yes, unfortunately this has been an issue for us in Egg Harbor for the last several years,” said Village Administrator Josh Van Lieshout. “Despite distributing information sheets at parade line up with the rules, some participants seem intent on engaging in such activities. We’re not out to stop all the fun, but we’ve had enough complaints about ruined cameras, innocent grandmas getting drenched, and need to put a stop to it. Fortunately no one has been seriously injured and no one has put anything other than water in balloons. We’re not the fun police. The village enjoys having the parade, fireworks and all the festivities, and will continue to support them in the future, but water balloons and water cannons need to stop.” The Plan Commission meets at 6 pm on Aug. 25.

Sturgeon Bay Braces for Bassmasters Common Council briefed on national event by JIM LUNDSTROM jim@ppulse.com
T
he Bassmasters are coming! That was the message Pam Seiler, executive director of the Sturgeon Bay Visitor Center, delivered to the Sturgeon Bay Common Council at its noon meeting on Aug. 18. “They call it the Super Bowl of fishing,” Seiler said of the Bassmaster Angler of the Year Championship, which is being held in Sturgeon Bay Sept. 17-20. “This probably is the largest event we have seen here in our community.” She described the event as similar to NASCAR, with professional bass anglers participating in nine tournaments to qualify for one of the 50 spots in the season-culminating Angler of the Year Championship. It’s the first time the event has been held in Wisconsin. Sturgeon Bay was chosen because in the spring of 2014 Bassmasters Magazine ranked the waters off Door County as the No. 1 bass fishing spot in the nation. Seiler said in talking with other communities that have hosted the event in the past, the economic impact lasts far beyond the actual event and can add up to millions. “We really felt as though it was a good investment in our community by bringing this event here,” she said. Headquarters for the event is CenterPointe Marina. Seiler said two blocks leading up to the marina will be closed off to allow for a farmers market, various vendors and demos. Special events will be held during the four-day event, including Bassmaster Fan Day and Military Appreciation Day on Sat., Sept. 19. Seiler said anyone with a military ID just has to show it to receive a gift from Bassmaster and take part in a meet and greet with the Bassmaster anglers. Final weigh-ins and crowning of the champion begins at 3:15 pm on Sunday, Sept. 20.

She also mentioned the Adopt an Angler sponsorship, where individuals and businesses can sponsor an angler for $250. The sponsors will be hooked up with their anglers in a random selection at Kitty O’Reilly’s at 5:30 pm on Sept. 1. Sponsors of the top five anglers will take part in a special meet and greet. Seiler said there is a desperate need for volunteers, and they don’t even have to know anything about fishing. Anyone who would like to volunteer for the event should call the visitor center at 920.743.6800 or email Pam Seiler at pam@sturgeonbay.net. Other business conducted at the meeting included: • Echoing the requests of many citizens, Alderman Will Gregory asked that a discussion of moving common council meeting times to the night be placed on the agenda for the next meeting. Mayor Thad Birmingham said he would take that under advisement. • The council voted 3-2 to accept the low bid from De Groot, Inc., to replace a 1930 vintage sanitary sewer main and replace and relocate a storm sewer main as part of the West Waterfront Redevelopment project. There were only two bids for the project, and De Groot’s low bid of $244,120.77 was described by Community Development Director Marty Olejniczak as “higher than we hoped to see,” causing Alderwoman Kelly Catarozoli to move that the council reject the two bids and open the job up to bidding again. Alderman Will Gregory seconded her motion. Olejniczak said the storm sewer work will have to be completed before construction of the hotel planned for the project, which he said the developer has a late spring/early summer 2016 opening date in mind. He also warned that reopening the bidding process wouldn’t guarantee better prices. Alderman Ron Vandertie said the revenue to be generated from the hotel would supersede any lower bid, so he said he could not support delaying the bid.

Olejniczak said the DNR approval is the final piece of the puzzle for hotel construction to begin. “In the best case scenario, work could start in two weeks,” he said. “We could be left scrambling if hotel construction is approved,” Birmingham said. “We could be paying dearly for this.” When it came to a vote on Catarozoli’s motion, only she and Gregory voted to reject the two bids. Alderman Stewart Fett then moved to accept the bid from De Groot, which was seconded by Alderman Rick Wiesner. The motion passed, with Catarozoli and Gregory voting against it. • Voted to sell a small strip of property to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation at the intersection of Michigan Street and Hwy. 42 for the DOT’s roundabout project. • Changed the city’s sign code to eliminate the 25-foot setback from the street for ground signs, to a five-foot setback. • Approved special assessments for curb and gutter work to accompany reconstruction of Egg Harbor Road from N. 8th Avenue to Alabama Street. The resolution calls for 100 percent of the cost of the installation of curb, gutter and sidewalks be assessed to the benefitting properties. • Alderman Vandertie reported that the Personnel Committee is in the process of finding a replacement for Sturgeon Bay Fire Chief Tim Herlache, who has served with the department since 1979 and retires in January. • Alderman Wiesner reported that the Community Protection & Service Committee has scheduled a public hearing at 5 pm on Sept. 10 on allowing 1 Awesome Cab Company to operate in Sturgeon Bay. • Alderman Vandertie reported that Sturgeon Bay Utility is going to replace 550 streetlights in the city with LED lights, with the help of Focus on Energy and WPPI Energy. • Mayor Birmingham wished a happy birthday to city resident Emily Ploor, who turned 100 on Aug. 14.

OUR REPS
Egg Harbor Chooses New Administrator But details not yet released by JIM LUNDSTROM jim@ppulse.com
F
our finalists for the Egg Harbor village administrator position spent the day in the village on Aug. 17. “It was a long day,” said outgoing Administrator Josh Van Lieshout, who takes up his new job as administrator of the City of Sturgeon Bay on Sept. 1. “Candidates came into town and spent the morning circulating between trustees. We had a lunch and brought in the department heads. In the afternoon the candidates interviewed with the department heads and myself. They got a good flavor of the community and what’s going on here, and in the evening we had the formal interviews.” Van Lieshout said one woman was among the four finalists. “I think we had a good cross section of skills and abilities,” he said. “I’m sure the village would have done well with any of the candidates. It’s really exciting for the village. I was impressed with these candidates.” The village board of trustees then chose a candidate and made an offer. “I can’t release any information until after he’s accepted and we’ve executed an agreement,” Van Lieshout said on Aug. 18. “As soon as that happens, we’ll call a quick board meeting and approve the contract. It could be yet this week or Monday.” While the candidate was not revealed by Pulse press time, here are a few issues the new administrator will have to deal with: • The village is in the middle of planning for a reconstruction project of its down-
town, from Harbor School Road to County E. Public meetings were held in April to hear from the community and from engineering and design experts on making the corridor more biker and pedestrian friendly and unifying the village’s identity. The village hopes to start awarding bids in September, with work expected to begin in December and completed by June 2016. That work is expected to include burying overhead utility lines. • A fundraising campaign is under way for a new community center that will include space for a larger library and visitor center. An ad hoc committee continues to meet on the center. • The power outage that resulted from the Aug. 2 storm has brought calls for a generator to be installed at the village hall as a safe shelter area for residents, especially for a winter power outage. • Restaurant grease is a big issue in the village. The grease is emulsified in the hot water of dishwashers and flows through the system, only to accumulate at the village’s wastewater treatment plant, where a lot of labor is involved in chiseling and scraping the grease. The grease makes it hard for the ultraviolet sanitizing system to work, which could mean a coliform problem down the road. Utility Committee Chair John Heller said while in-street grease traps are expensive – particularly for the plumbing required inside the establishments that produce the grease – an estimate of the cost should be done on one of the businesses. He suggested Shipwrecked be used to estimate what it would cost to plumb for an in-street grease trap.

Representative Reid Ribble Ribble was named a Lake Michigan Champion of Conservation by the Lake Michigan Stakeholders and Lakeshore Natural Resource Partnership for his ongoing work on his Save the Bay initiative to fight the toxic algae blooms that can kill fish and make the waters of Green Bay unsafe for recreational and residential use in the summer. “My goal has consistently been to leave our country in better shape for my children and grandchildren, and algae blooms that render the waters of Green Bay unsafe are a concern that cannot be ignored. As someone who grew up fishing, swimming, and boating in our lakes and rivers, I know how important they are to families, tourism and local businesses,” Ribble said. “Unsafe water is a problem for our entire community, and I am proud to be working with area stakeholders to find a solution. I appreciate all the hard work that so many people have put into saving the waters of Green Bay. Ribble recently sponsored legislation that would allow local farmers to apply for up to $30 million in grants to help them make changes that would cut down on farm runoff, and is working with stakeholders to develop a broader community-based solution.” Source: Ribble press release Senator Tammy Baldwin Baldwin, a member of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, released the following statement in support of the Iran nuclear agreement: “I’m proud that America led six countries toward a historic international agreement with Iran. I believe we are right to choose a path of international diplomacy to achieve our goal of verifiably preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. I have carefully reviewed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), attended numerous classified briefings, heard from experts and constituents, and examined detailed arguments for and against the agreement. I have also been guided by the hard lessons that should be learned when America chooses to engage in military action and war in the Middle East. Simply put, I do not believe that rejecting this agreement is in our national security interest. For that reason the choice is clear, I will support this international agreement because it will
On Aug. 18, three members of the Coast Guard station in Two Rivers took the final steps in returning the Range Lights on the Ridges Sanctuary property into working navigational aids by removing the red and white metal directional sign that had been in place for 46 years. Removal of the metal sign was accomplished by three members of the Two Rivers Coast Guard station – Tom Fey, Daniel Allen and Blaine Bichsel. The Two Rivers unit is responsible for all of the buoys and lighthouses from Manitowoc to Door County, all of surrounding islands and the bay of Green Bay. Now the red light in the Lower Range Light and the white light in the Upper Range Light are aligned and will help guide vessels safely into the harbor.

Gov. Scott Walker Republican presidential candidate Walker said he believes the children of undocumented immigrants shouldn’t automatically have a right to American citizenship if they’re born in the United States. Asked by MSNBC if birthright citizenship should be ended, the Wisconsin governor replied: “Yeah, to me it’s about enforcing the laws in this country. And I’ve been very clear, I think you enforce the laws, and I think it’s important to send a message that we’re going to enforce the laws, no matter how people come here we’re going to enforce the laws.” Ending birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants is part of GOP front-runner Donald Trump’s immigration plan, first outlined Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press. On Monday morning, Walker told Fox and Friends that his own immigration plan is “similar” to the plan Trump outlined. Source: MSNBC

best serve America’s national security interests and it is built on verification with a robust inspections and compliance regime that will cut off all of Iran’s potential pathways to a nuclear weapon.” Source: Baldwin press release President Barack Obama The Obama administration has delivered a warning to Beijing about the presence of Chinese government agents operating secretly in the United States to pressure prominent expatriates — some wanted in China on charges of corruption — to return home immediately, according to American officials. The American officials said that Chinese law enforcement agents covertly in this country are part of Beijing’s global campaign to hunt down and repatriate Chinese fugitives and, in some cases, recover allegedly ill-gotten gains. The Chinese government has officially named the effort Operation Fox Hunt. The American warning, which was delivered to Chinese officials in recent weeks and demanded a halt to the activities, reflects escalating anger in Washington about intimidation tactics used by the agents. And it comes at a time of growing tension between Washington and Beijing on a number of issues: from the computer theft of millions of government personnel files that American officials suspect was directed by China, to China’s crackdown on civil liberties, to the devaluation of its currency. Those tensions are expected to complicate the state visit to Washington next month by Xi Jinping, the Chinese president. Source: The New York Times

Far From the Madding Crowd: Liberty Grove Town Parks by GARY JONES
D
oor County offers five popular state parks, three of them in Northern Door, as well as a number of county parks and Land Trust properties. But for those who like to relax far from the madding crowd, the Township of Liberty Grove maintains 14 small public parks. Visitors to the top of the peninsula might pass those areas by without notice, but those who discover them will find unexpected pleasure. A number of these areas are secluded, and nearly every one offers a water view. While some include as amenities picnic tables and a restroom, others provide only a place to park and maybe a bench. A few feature beaches, but most are perfect sites for observing the changing perspectives of the waters of Green Bay or Lake Michigan. Liberty Grove Clerk/Administrator Walter “Bud” Kalms believes the township is lucky to have these parks available for the public. “High monetary values placed on shore property make access to the water difficult unless a person is fortunate enough to be able to afford a beachfront lot,” he said. “The parks adjacent to the bays and lakes in the town make it possible for all to enjoy the beauty and experience what nature has to offer along our miles of shoreline.” Below is a guided tour of Liberty Grove’s township parks; the route generally follows scenic back roads. Some of them are excellent places to take children to play or swim; some are appropriate for launching boats or kayaks; some are perfect locations for a private picnic; and some are ideal for quiet contemplation. Be aware that the township charges for boat launches, and that dogs are generally not allowed in parks. A DRIVING TOUR 1. Grandview Park To begin a driving tour of these parks follow Hwy. 42 north toward Ellison Bay, and at the top of the hill that leads down to the village, Grandview Park is located to your left, next to the Liberty Grove Historical So-
ciety, 11871 Hwy. 42. Use parking on that property to stroll the park or sit on a bench admiring a spectacular view of the waters of Green Bay.

bles and grill, and a beautiful panorama of Death’s Door waters.
2. Ellison Bay Community Park Near the foot of the hill leading into the village sits on your left the Ellison Bay Community Park, 11953 Hwy. 42. In addition to a sheltered swimming beach, the park includes picnic tables, grills, a children’s playground, tennis courts, toilet facilities, a gazebo and the Women’s Club building that can be rented for social occasions.
5. Garrett Bay Park Return to Garrett Bay Road turning right toward the bay, and after a two-mile scenic drive that descends to the water, you will find Garrett Bay Park, 1310 Garrett Bay Road. While a boat launch is available as well as a picnic table, grill, bench, and portable toilet, a major attraction is the visible underwater ribbing of the Fleetwing, a ship sunk in the late 1800s near to shore and easily viewed by snorkeling.
8. Porte des Morts Park Back on Hwy. 42 continue driving toward the Northport ferry dock where you will turn left on Kenosha Drive and after a short drive, at 12832 Kenosha Drive you will arrive at Porte des Morts (Death’s Door) Park, which offers another impressive view of the Death’s Door waters, and for your convenience, benches, picnic tables, grill, and portable toilet. A stairway from the bluff down to the shore is planned as a future development.
3. Wills Park and Marina Continue into Ellison Bay and turn left onto Cedar Shore Road at the Pioneer Store. Wills Park and Marina, 12033 Cedar Shore

4. Fitzgerald Park After returning to Hwy. 42 and driving north, turn left in Ellison Bay at Gus Klenke’s garage onto Garrett Bay Road. Still within the village at the corner of Old School Road and Garrett Bay Road is Fitzgerald Park, 1594 Old School Road. The park features a playground, covered picnic area with tables and grill, toilet facilities, a

turning left at Isle View Road. As you approach Lake Michigan you will see Isle View Park, a small gem of an area with a picnic table, grill and benches for admiring the view from the overlook of lake waters. 10. Europe Lake Boat Launch Continue south on Timberline Road a couple miles and turn left on Europe Lake Road. At the end of the road you will come to the launch and dock for small boats at 460 Europe Lake Road. A small grassy area

offers a picnic table and grill with a view of the inland lake, as well as a portable toilet. 11. Hotz Memorial Town Park Back on Timberline Road driving south, take the next left on Europe Bay Road (across from Uncle Tom’s Candy Store) and at the end of that road you will arrive at Hotz Memorial Town Park, 349 Europe Bay Road. Located at the edge of the expansive Europe Bay sand beach it is surrounded by Newport State Park. The wooded setting provides picnic tables, grills and toilet facilities. 12. Rowleys Bay Launch Return south on Europe Bay Road, past the Baptist Church to the intersection with Hwy. 42, and in downtown Ellison Bay, turn left on Mink River Road. After a couple miles, turn left on Cty ZZ to Rowleys Bay Resort (1041 Cty ZZ), on the shore of Lake Michigan. Presently the DNR owns the launch area and marina, but the Liberty Grove annual pass can be used; the launch officially will become Liberty Grove property in 2016. 13. Sand Bay Town Park Return to Mink River Road, turn left, and then after a mile left again on Waters End Road, and after a half mile left on Sand Bay Lane near the end of Waters End Road. Watching for Sand Bay Town Park on the right at 11154 Sand Bay Lane. This park offers a sand beach with shallow water, a kayak launch, a swing set, picnic tables, grills and toilet facilities. This spot is child-friendly and especially pleasant under the morning sun. 14. North Bay Boat Launch Return to Waters End Road, drive west about a mile and turn left on Cty ZZ, following the route about three miles to North Bay Road, and after another three miles at that the end of that road, you will find the North Bay Boat Launch, 9883 North Bay Road. The launch is suitable for small boats. Benches are provided for admiring the view of the bay. Old-timers may occasionally lament that the Door County they once knew has disappeared because of continuing development, but finding the charm of that Door County is a matter of knowing where to look, of keeping far from the madding crowd. If you are an armchair traveler, you may experience these 14 parks from the comfort of your easy chair by visiting libertygrove.org and clicking on Park and Picnic Areas.

Sand Bay Park: A Project in Remediation by GARY JONES
T
hirty-some years ago this writer discovered Liberty Grove’s Sand Bay Park on the shore of Lake Michigan. Since that time, the small park near the dead end of Waters End Road has been the turn back point of a four-mile run. Those familiar with the park just east of Sister Bay know that forenoons are the best time to enjoy it, especially early in the morning when the water is often calm as the sun emerges from the horizon and off in the distance a fishing boat may be chugging on the way to its nets. And those who have a really longtime acquaintance with the park, such as my neighbor Karl who recalls swimming at Sand Bay as a young teenager during the early 1940s, have seen changes in it over the years, times when the lake level was so high that the beach disappeared, and others so low that the beach had to be mowed like a lawn. During the early days of Sand Bay, the entrance road hugged the lakefront and access to the park was also provided by a road no longer existing that once cut through the woods from County ZZ near Rowleys Bay. Now, after facing threats of erosion and coliform pollution, the park is getting a little help from its friends. The Liberty Grove Township government has taken a proactive approach to keeping the park system under its jurisdiction attractive, safe and accessible. The Sand Bay beach remediation is just one of the projects undertaken, explained Liberty Grove Clerk/Administrator Walter “Bud” Kalms. A major health concern at Sand Bay was the fact that at certain times of the year a swamp located on the inland side of North Sand Bay Lane next to the park drained onto the beach with the potential of water contamination along with unsightliness and an offensive odor. Beginning in 2014, Kalms said, drainage tile was laid in the park, directing water to the north end where it is safely discharged. Sand was imported not only to restore the beach but also to create a series of protective dunes planted with stabilizing dune grass. For the present the dunes are surrounded with flexible temporary fencing that will be removed once the dunes are firmly established. As a final part of the project a wooden boardwalk was built leading from the parking area to an observation deck, and three additional short boardwalks offer access to the beach from the lawn of the park. Not only will these improvements help control erosion, but also will make the beach area handicap accessible. “The town board is very appreciative of the effort that Soil and Water put in here for the remediation project,” Kalms said. That county agency provided the design for the
improvements; Coastal Management reimbursed the total cost of the $70,700 project. “In the future, we might have to make adjustments with the project,” Kalms added. The town government is responsible for maintaining the decking and boardwalks as well as the dune grass plantings. Students from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh have been monitoring water quality throughout Door County. The Liberty Grove Town Board has looked to the future regarding beach remediation and improvement of water quality, realizing that work done now will provide dividends in continuing park maintenance. The Sand Bay project, along with others, has received community support. Ellison Bay Community Center Beach Remediation In 2009 the Town invested $54,000 to create a storm water retention area for the beach near the Ellison Bay Community Center using biofilter technology, Kalms explained. The system is similar to rain gardens sometimes used in urban areas to control water runoff, except in this instance the design includes a drainpipe leading to the bay. Ellison Bay resident Beth Coleman planted and maintains the vegetation for the biofilter. “She does a very good job of keeping them in order,” Kalm said. The project also included the establishment of dunes. Coastal Management reimbursed $25,000 of the cost of the project. Hotz Park Beach Remediation Contemporary with the Sand Bay project, the town undertook the Hotz Park beach remediation. This facility is adjacent to Newport State Park and has beach frontage. The implemented design includes a water retention area, dunes with dune grass plantings and a boardwalk with an observation deck. Coastal Management reimbursed the total $38,500 cost of the project. Future Liberty Grove Projects Separate from the Ellison Bay beach remediation work, Kalms said, the township plans to undertake a future project at the Ellison Bay harbor, repairing the steel sheeting and iron piling soil retention wall, as well as a storm runoff pipe. The Neptune Dive Club, a private group from Green Bay, plans to install at the Porte des Morts Park (near Northport) a stairway that will provide safe and convenient access to the water from the top of the bluff.

Retiring from His Route by PATTY WILLIAMSON, PHD
M
ention paper boy to most people, especially those who grew up in a small town a few generations ago, and the picture in their minds is likely to be a Norman Rockwell-type scene – a red-haired youngster on his bike, aiming for front porches at top speed so he can make it to baseball practice on time. Door County has a different type of “paper boy,” employed by the Peninsula Pulse to deliver the newspaper. The Paper Boy business was established in 2002, and Jim Karwowski of Sturgeon Bay was one of the early employees. He began in 2004 when a friend, Gerry Page, retired and suggested he apply for the job. Jim, a research scientist with Abbott Laboratories for 30 years, retired and moved to Door County from Mundelein, Ill., in 2002. He and his wife, Anita, lived in Windemere Townhomes for six years, and serving as president of the condo association kept Jim busy at first. But by the time the Paper Boy position became a possibility, he was ready for a pleasant, low-key job one day a week. He was one of five drivers who deliver the Pulse, while a sixth distributes brochures, advertising flyers and other materials for other local businesses. All report to Angela Sherman, Paper Boy’s distribution manager. “When I started, I delivered 2,700 papers,” he says. “They wouldn’t all fit into my SUV, even when it was packed to the roof. I had to do part of the route, then go back for the rest of the load. I delivered to 150 locations weekly from May through October, then every other week in the winter. It took about eight hours. Recently, I had just 140 drops in the core of Sturgeon Bay.” Jim says that driving around and dropping off papers was pleasant and relaxing. Finding parking places in downtown Sturgeon Bay? Sometimes not so pleasant. He also enjoyed the social aspect of seeing people in 140 businesses on a regular basis. “When I came home, Anita would often say, ‘Did you talk to so and so today? How are they doing?’” Jim drove his route for the last time on Aug. 14, retiring for the second time. Will he miss it?
“The people at the Pulse are a good group to work with,” he says. “I’ll miss that aspect of the job, but not driving in the ice and snow in the winter or getting in and out of the SUV dozens of time in the summer heat.” Other than owner David Eliot and owner/editor in chief Madeline Harrison, Jim was believed to have the most seniority of any Pulse/Paper Boy employee. “He did a lot of wonderful work for us,” Sherman says. “We’ve been so happy to have him, and certainly wish him a great retirement.” More free time in Jim’s life means more time for fishing, his favorite pastime. “Working on Fridays didn’t interfere too much,” he says, “because there are so many tourists fishing on weekends that it’s the worst time for locals.” Still he expects to be putting in a lot more time in his boat near Sherwood Point and Larson’s Reef. Jim is secretary of the Sturgeon Bay Lions Club, which he thoroughly enjoys, and also assists with activities of the Altrusa Club that Anita has served as president of for the past year. Recently Jim helped with Altrusa’s annual Backto-School Fair that provided supplies to nearly 550 Sturgeon Bay youngsters on the school district’s free lunch program. For several of the years Jim was delivering the Pulse, the Karwowskis’ son, Chris, also was involved in the newspaper business as a senor writer for The Onion, the satirical publication that caused an international stir in 2002 when it printed a story suggesting that the U.S. Congress had threated to move out of Washington to Memphis or Charlotte, North Carolina, unless a fancy new capitol with more bathrooms and better parking was erected. The Chinese government suffered embarrassment when the state-run media, the Beijing Evening News, reprinted the story as factual. Chris told Jim that the Chinese retorted, “You Americans joke about everything!” Not politically correct, of course, in Communist China. As Jim gives up his second career, Chris is now a freelance writer in Los Angeles, generally working in comedy, although he wrote several episodes of the PBS children’s program, Word Girl, for which the group of writers won an Emmy.

PET TALK by Sally Salopek Q. How can we get our dog to stop jumping up on people? She gets so excited when she sees people and I know some people don’t like it. A. Puppies jump on people to get closer to their faces so they can say hello and get attention, the same as they do with their canine mothers. Wolf pups run up to returning parents, jump on them and lick their muzzles in hopes of getting a meal. Jumping up is a natural behavior in the canine world, but should not be acceptable with humans. This is a problem that should be dealt with as soon as a new puppy is brought into the home. Puppies are so cute when they come running up and jump on you seeking attention. It is almost impossible to resist picking the pup up and cuddling them, but doing so only reinforces the behavior. If that puppy grows to be 85 pounds, the cuteness of jumping up is gone and can be dangerous. They could knock over a child or someone elderly and cause physical injury. Even small dogs can cause painful scratches to someone’s legs or a toddler’s face. I don’t know if your dog is a puppy or an adult, but the method I am going to explain can work for any age dog. The most important thing is not to pay any attention to your pet when she jumps on you. Do not push her down, knee her off, step on her back toes or squeeze her front toes trying to get her to stop jumping. This is giving her the attention she is seeking but in a negative way, which may make the dog fearful or even aggressive. Simply cross your arms and put your hands on the opposite shoulders and turn your back to the jumping bundle of fur and say “off.” Crossing your arms will not give the pup the
opportunity to lick or nip at your fingers. You may find yourself turning in circles constantly in the early stages, but your persistence will pay off. The behavior may even get worse before improving with this method if the dog has been jumping on you for a long time and getting attention. She will be confused as to why she is not getting the same response as before. When the pup has all four paws on the ground, that is when you praise and give a treat. If she knows the sit command, give the command when all her feet are on the ground, then quietly praise and give a treat while in the sitting position. If she starts to jump again while you’re praising her, again cross your arms and turn away and keep turning until she stops. She will begin to figure out that jumping does not get the attention she craves. It is important all family members are on board with this technique. It won’t work if you do it, but another family member allows the dog to jump on them for pets and loving. Everyone has to be consistent. Praise is very important, along with a tasty treat in the beginning, when the dog is standing or sitting nicely at your feet waiting for attention. It won’t be long before your girl realizes jumping doesn’t get her anything, but standing or sitting nicely when people approach or she approaches them will get exactly the attention she desires. Good luck with your jumper. Hope this helps. Sally Salopek is the owner and operator of AttendA-Pet pet sitting services in northern Door County.

Building Her Future…Builds our Community! was the theme for this year’s Women’s Fund of Door County’s luncheon. Now in its 6th year this event attracts a sellout crowd and was again held at Stone Harbor Resort and Conference Center in Sturgeon Bay. This event is the largest annual fundraiser for the Women’s Fund. A panel discussion “Living on the Edge: Women and Poverty in Door County” moderated by board member Jennifer Moeller kicked off the day’s event. Panel members Christine Anderson, Washington Island Community Health Program; Julie Davis, Door County Boys and Girls Club; Chris Loose, Lakeshore CAP; and Pat Peterson, Aging & Disability Resource Center of Door County, talked about women and children living in poverty in our community. The panel concurred more work needs to be done in our community, but with more awareness and funding some of these issues can be reduced. Marti Spittel-Ziegelbauer welcomed an enthusiastic crowd to the luncheon. She spoke of the privilege of being the MC for this event since its inception and of the need for all women to care and support each other. Introductions were made for the presentation of the 2015 Leadership Awards. Tara LeClair, business and education manager of the Door/Kewaunee Business & Education Partnership (DKBEP) and Patti Vickman, superintendent of Southern Door Schools were this year’s winner. These women were instrumental in bringing to Door County a Michigan Tech MINDTREKKERS event, which gives all students exposure to the sciences through hands-on projects. The Women’s Fund has shared in supporting and sponsoring this event for the past two years. A standing ovation was given to keynote speaker Liz Murray, author of Breaking Night: Homeless to Harvard. She spoke of her life growing up in New York City in a dysfunctional home and how through persistence, community support and perseverance she was able to break the cycle of extreme poverty and homelessness. “Life takes on the meaning that you give it.” She also stressed the importance of looking ahead and dreaming big. An initiative to increase the endowment to $1.2 million was introduced by Women’s Fund Board member Vicki Wilson. With an enhanced endowment, the Women’s Fund will be able to grant about $35,000 annually in the form of sustainability grants, plus provide about $200,000 every three years to a community initiative called a collaborative grant. Wilson announced that the Women’s Fund is already more than half way to their goal with an endowment as of August 15 of $650,000. Through the collaborative grant process, the community will be involved in identifying the issues to be addressed and Door County nonprofits, working together, will develop a plan to impact those issues to make a greater impact on changing the lives of women and girls in Door County.

Former Southern Door Coaches Lead St. Norbert Football Forward by PETER DAHL
D
an McCarty has been a head coach in Brussels, Wis., and in Eidsvoll, Norway. His career as an assistant has taken him to Sturgeon Bay, where he won a state championship, UW-Stout, UW-Eau Claire, and Minnesota-Duluth. Dan McCarty But now, after an unlikely sequence of events, McCarty is about to begin his first season as the head coach of St. Norbert College, a perennially strong team in Division III football. After a long and successful career, Jim Purtill suddenly stepped down as Al Johnson head coach at St. Norbert in 2013. His successor, Steve Opgenorth, brought on McCarty – then the head coach of the Southern Door Eagles – to be his defensive coordinator. Then, after last season, Opgenorth unexpectedly resigned after the Green Knights had a poor season by their standards. St. Norbert promoted McCarty to head coach almost immediately. McCarty enters the season full of optimism as he seeks to instill his coaching values in a program that has a lot of potential. He has made establishing a year-round recruiting plan a priority for his staff, and believes he will be able to sell this program to talented players. “[St. Norbert] sells itself when recruits and families step foot on our campus and see how new and beautiful everything is,” said McCarty. The college has made many recent expansions and improvements, and new athletic buildings are at the top of President Tom Kunkel’s to-do list. Leading the Green Knights does present some challenges for McCarty, such as running a program of 130 players and avoiding cuts to the roster. While many Division III schools “gray shirt” players and make significant cuts to the roster, St. Norbert’s program works to keep the players that they recruit.
“We have to do a lot better of a job up front with evaluations on talent because we don’t want to make cuts when kids get on campus,” said McCarty. McCarty is confident that his coaching staff will give him the support he needs to lead the team. He is confident in Defensive Coordinator Ryan Osborn, and his offense is headed by an old friend and Southern Door alum, Al Johnson. “Al is one of the best football coaches that I’ve been around,” said McCarty. “The best thing about Al is that he is just a great guy and our kids absolutely love being around him on and off the football field.” Johnson is also excited about the opportunity to be Offensive Coordinator for his friend, and said that working with McCarty is one of the best parts of his job. “I always say I have the best boss,” said Johnson. “I get to just be myself.” Johnson was an all-state player at Southern Door before playing on the offensive line for the Wisconsin Badgers and three NFL teams. Former NFL head coach Tony Sparano once hailed him as the most intelligent lineman he ever coached. He served as McCarty’s offensive coordinator for one year at Southern Door before both men made the move to coach under Opgenorth at St. Norbert. Their partnership is an example of the chemistry McCarty tries to instill in all his teams. “I’ve always tried to create the tightest team possible and one where the players put the team first,” said McCarty. “A team that believes in itself and one another.” Johnson says he coaches in a program where everything is for the good of the team. “When you work in an environment like that where there are no egos, it is enjoyable to come to work every day to do something you love,” said Johnson. Both coaches believe their work can translate into great success this season, which begins Sept. 5 at home versus Carthage College. “I’m excited for the season, as is every player and coach in our program. I believe we have a ton of talent returning along with a talent-loaded incoming freshman class,” said McCarty. “We’ll put a good football team out on the field week in and week out.”

The four-day event is expected to bring 12,000 to 15,000 fans and visitors to Sturgeon Bay. “We’re thrilled to be hosting the AOY Championship, but it’s going to take a lot of people to pull off an event of this magnitude,” said Pam Seiler, executive director of the Sturgeon Bay Visitor Center. Volunteers are needed in the following areas: information booth, volunteer registration, beverage serving (must be 21 years of age or older), crowd control, and site maintenance. “We’re also really excited about our ‘Adopt an Angler’ sponsorship program,” said Seiler. “‘Adopt an Angler’ is a program designed to get our community involved and excited about this once in a lifetime event. For $250, you or your business can adopt one of the 50 anglers that will be fishing our waters. On Sept. 1st, Kitty O’Reilly’s will be hosting a ‘picking party’ where those adopting will randomly draw an angler’s name and receive their Bassmaster hats, angler profile, and complimentary 1 year subscription to Bassmaster Magazine. The participating businesses or individuals will then receive email updates as to their angler’s progress during the week and position on the leaderboard. Then on Sunday, going into the Championship round, the top five adopting businesses or individuals, along with a guest, will be invited to the VIP party tent to watch the final weigh in and have the opportunity to meet their adopted angler. It’s really going to be a fun way to get people involved and following the anglers. But there are only 50, so it’s first come, first served!” For more information, call 920.743.6246 or email pam@ sturgeonbay.net.

Cougar Sighting in Marinette County Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources biologists have confirmed a cougar sighting in northeast Marinette County. On Aug. 4, the department received a trail camera photo of a cougar taken July 19 from a Marinette County landowner. After site evaluations, DNR staff confirmed the location of the photo. This photo was taken 10 days after and approximately 60 miles east of the recently confirmed Langlade County sightings. Genetic evidence suggests cougars known to have entered Wisconsin are male cougars dispersing from a breeding population in the Western United States. There is currently no evidence that cougars are breeding in Wisconsin. Cougars are a protected species in Wisconsin and hunting is not allowed. Cougars are not considered a threat to public safety, and in the unlikely event that a person is confronted by a cougar, face the animal and spread your arms and open your coat or jacket to appear larger. If a cougar approaches, make noise and throw rocks or sticks. Individuals who observe cougars in Wisconsin are urged to report their findings using the Large Mammal Observation form.

The U.S Environmental Protection Agency recently announced that Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York, has received a $6.5 million Great Lakes Restoration Initiative grant to monitor pollutants in Great Lakes fish for the next five years. This EPA grant continues funding for the university’s surveillance program to monitor Great Lakes fish for contamination from legacy pollutants such as PCBs, banned pesticides, mercury and from emerging chemicals of concern like flame retardants and personal care products. “This new Great Lakes Restoration Initiative funding will be used to expand efforts to track the levels of pollutants in fish at 10 sites throughout the Great Lakes basin,” said Region 5 Administrator/Great Lakes National Program Manager Susan Hedman. “The data gathered through this study will help to identify contaminants that pose risks to wildlife and human health.” In collaboration with other state and federal programs, Clarkson University will use EPA’s grant to develop stateof-the-art capability to identify and quantify pollutants in fish. The university will also expand the list of target chemicals to assess contaminant transfer through the food chain. This work will result in a clearer picture of the impact of human activity on the health of the Great Lakes ecosystem. “This investment will help provide the necessary resources to monitor pollutants in and around our lakes,” said U.S. Sen. Kristen Gillibrand, a member of the Senate Environment & Public Works Committee. “The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative will help update Clarkson University’s research programs to monitor the presence of pollutants, stepping up our efforts to protect the air we breathe, the water we drink and the land we use around us.” For more information, visit glri.us or epa.gov/greatlakes/glri.

THE CLIMATE CORNER
A Birder’s Eye View by MATT REETZ
W
hat’s not to like about birds? Wisconsin is fortunate to enjoy phenomenal bird diversity that helps make our state a very special place. But let’s put my obvious bird bias aside. Even if you are not a birder, there are very important reasons to care about the future for birds, and to worry about the risks that climate change poses for this precious resource. Last fall when the National Audubon Society released its Birds and Climate Report, a comprehensive and rigorous study of future effects of global warming on birds, I was shocked. Scientists studying 588 bird species in Canada and the U.S. found that 314 species are severely threatened by the warming of our planet. More than half! Indeed, many bird species could become extinct. The news is bad for Wisconsin, too. Can you imagine summer mornings in northern Wisconsin without the plaintive call of the Common Loon? The Audubon Report finds that loons may no longer call Wisconsin home in the future as a result of the impact of a warmer climate on their habitat. Wood Thrush, Warblers, Bobolinks, Bald Eagles and Wood Ducks also may be absent from Wisconsin before the end of the century. Even the ever-present Mallard is projected to lose 75 percent of its summer habitat. More than 50 of Wisconsin’s wonderful birds are threatened or endangered by the changing climate we are already experiencing.

But let’s get beyond the “birds make life better” argument. Let’s talk turkey. Or better yet, money. Loss of birds through climate change will harm our economy. According to a 2011 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service survey, 72 million birders contribute $55 billion a year to the national economy. In Wisconsin, two million wildlife viewers spend roughly $2.5 billion each year. Birding is big business. On top of that, birds themselves provide billions of additional dollars worth of services like rodent and mosquito control, nutrient cycling and pollination. They do this for free! Consider the old saw of the canary in a coal mine. Threatened birds serve as indicators of bigger problems. According to the Wisconsin Initiative on Climate Change Impacts, Wisconsin summers will be nine degrees hotter by the year 2055. We’ll have more intense storms and significant changes in the length of our seasons. These changes will affect us in many ways, threatening Door County’s boreal forest, rare plant communities and animal habitats, not just our feathered friends. Troubling declines in bird populations are a warning signal of the failing health of some of our ecosystems. If birds are in trouble, so are we. It is easy to think of this as a problem for the future, but the reality is global warming is already occurring. Our birds are telling us this. We are seeing shifts today in migration patterns, bird distributions and food availability. While the news provided by the National Audubon Society’s groundbreaking Birds and Climate Report is scary, there is hope. There are many things that we can all do in our personal lives, our businesses and together in our communities to make the earth a better place for birds and people. First, we must protect the places that birds nest by conserving and expanding their critical habitats. Second, we must work together to reduce the severity of global warming by changing our behavior – that is, living and working in more sustainable ways that will help our natural environment be more resilient. Third, we must make ourselves heard. We need to spread the word on the importance of birds: losing even one species to a warming climate is not acceptable. Fourth, sharing your love of nature with your kids and grandkids is crucial. They will have a huge impact on whether we

Avocado is a crown jewel of the healthy eating fad sweeping the country. Once reserved for guacamole, it is now a staple in burgers, smoothies and salads. But avocados are high in fat and, in turn, calories. So what makes them so healthy? Avocados contain monounsaturated fat, otherwise known as “good” fat when taken in moderation. These fats are staples of the high-fat Mediterranean diet, which confounded nutrition experts in the 1960s who previously believed that all fat was bad. Monounsaturated fats lower LDL cholesterol in the blood, which is commonly associated with heart disease.
$1,500
High fat diets have also become popular over the past year with more scrutiny placed on carbohydrates and sugars in negatively affecting health. This has been amplified by preliminary studies showing the ability for a high fat diet to induce remission in cancer patients. Despite its health claims, avocados are still primarily made up of fat and an increase in their consumption will also increase the number of calories you consume. Instead of adding avocado to things you already eat, try replacing it with foods on your plate. Use avocado instead of mayonnaise on a sandwich or learn that an avocado works incredibly well as a substitute for extra ice cream in your milkshake.

SCIENCE SNIPPET compiled by Paul Burton The glass ceiling for women in the sciences is cracking. A recent study of applications for tenure-track positions in the sciences at various universities shows that, more often than not, selection committees would rather hire women than men. These positions are highly competitive, for once a young Ph.D. completes graduate or postgraduate studies, the first step toward a successful career in science is landing a tenured position. Usually such positions involve both teaching and research. In a well-controlled study, researchers at Cornell University obtained data about how candidate selection committees evaluated the gender of equally qualified applicants for positions in biology, engineering, psychology and economics. In the four disciplines, all but one (economics) showed a preference for female over male candidates. In psychology, there was a 3:1 bias in favor of women and in biology and engineering the bias was 2:1. Also, it made no difference whether the woman candidate was married or had children. (Proc. Nat. Acad Sciences, April 13, 2015; The Economist, Ap. 18, 2015) Paul Burton is Professor Emeritus in cell biology from the U. of Kansas and a distinguished alumnus from Western Carolina U. A writer/photographer, he has lived in Ephraim for 20 years.

T
here are few wildlife viewing preserves in the Midwest, other than the Horicon State and National Wildlife Refuge, that can match the Seney National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) for rather easily observing and getting remarkably close to wild birds and mammals. Here is a “rags to riches” story that could very well serve as a model for inspiring other regions of the U.S. to try to duplicate. Its location is ideally well away from large population centers and it’s very easy to find. Take Hwy. 2 north and then east from Escanaba, Mich., to Hwy. M77. Head north on M77 to the little village of Germfask. The entrance to Seney NWR is two miles north of town. Much of the upper peninsula of Michigan, along with large portions of Wisconsin and
Minnesota, was virtually stripped of its vast pine forests by the greedy lumber barons between 1870 and 1895. Bear in mind that this was pioneer country at the time and work was very hard to come by. The woods were virtually clear-cut by men who were glad to find a paying job, and fires were often deliberately started later to prepare the land for farming. Speculators sold this burned-over land, on which the fires had destroyed most of the humus, to unsuspecting early farmers. Naturally they failed in their venture while being robbed blind by the unscrupulous “money changers.” Gradually this land reverted to the State of Michigan for taxes, and then it lay idle for about 40 years. It was in 1935 that Michigan recommended to the federal government that this land be turned into a national wildlife refuge. Therein lays the “rags to riches” story. To-
day this splendid refuge of 153 square miles contains more than 7,000 acres of open water in 21 ponds interspersed with pine and hardwood forests, meadows, bogs and marshes. A dike system helps to carefully regulate the level of water necessary for the creation of good nesting habitat, especially for cranes, Ospreys, Bald Eagles, herons and waterfowl including the Trumpeter Swans. More than 200 species of birds have been observed there. Included among those that nest are the Black Tern, Osprey, Common Loon, Sandhill Crane, Bald Eagle, Wood Duck, Hooded Merganser, American Bittern, Northern Harrier, Woodcock, Ruffed Grouse, Yellow Rail and Trumpeter Swan. The seven-mile, self-guided auto tour is a pure delight in that it takes you through some of the choicest areas of the refuge. A fork in the road takes you to the right onto
a longer route to public fishing areas as well as to some excellent sites for viewing not only birds but also wild mammals. Mink, Muskrat, Fisher (which we saw), Coyote, Bobcat, White-tailed Deer, Black Bear, Weasel and even an occasional Timber Wolf and Moose have been observed. For the adventurous hiker and biker, there are 80 miles of gravel roads not open to motorized traffic. These remote routes often prove to be ideal for experiencing the unexpected highlight. A family of Trumpeter Swans, the two adults and their two cygnets, foraging for their submerged aquatic-plant breakfast at 7 am in a shallow inlet within 50 feet of where we stood, provided us with one of the thrills of our visit. Seney NWR and the State of Wisconsin are among the several northern locations in the country where the reintroduction of the

endangered Trumpeter Swans has proved to be successful. Presently Seney is home to about 200 Trumpeter Swans. Twenty-four Trumpeter Swans were released in Burnett County, Wis., in 1989, the goal of the DNR was to have at least 20 breeding pairs in the state by the year 2000. Thanks to a well-designed program and determined work and management, the goal was achieved. Only 73 of these magnificent white birds, weighing up to 30 pounds and having a wingspan between 8 and 10 feet, were left in the continental U.S. in 1935. Rigidly enforced protective measures helped bring the number to approximately 9,800 in the Central, Mississippi and Atlantic Flyways. Today their population is slowly but steadily climbing, this in light of the fearful predictions that this heaviest of all flying waterfowl on our continent would soon be joining the Dodo Bird, Great Auk and Passenger Pigeon in their extinction. The very similar Tundra Swans, slightly smaller in comparison to the Trumpeter Swans, are common spring and fall migrants through northeastern Wisconsin and conceivably can be confused with their larger and rarer “cousins.” If you are exceptionally lucky enough to hear the low, far-reaching sonorous, “French-horn like” call of the Trumpeter Swan, there will be no mistaking it for the Tundra Swan with its much higher “hooting,” somewhat like hearing a pack of barking dogs in the distance. Charlotte and I were so fortunate to hear the awesome trumpeting of the Trumpeter Swans on a visit in late July to the Seney NWR.

The Trumpeter Swan lacks the yellow patch on its black beak, in front of the eye, that many, but not all, of the Tundra Swans have. Preferably with the use of a spotting scope, you will see that the black facial skin that tapers to a rather broad point at the eye of the Trumpeter dips down in a “V” on its forehead. You will also notice that the adult’s forehead slopes quite evenly to its straight bill. The black facial skin on the Tundra Swan also tapers to a point in front of the eye but cuts straight across the forehead. One memorable trip to the Seney NWR in late July and early August several years ago found us literally stuffing ourselves with the scrumptious sweet Serviceberries picked from the dozens of Allegheny Serviceberry trees, appearing considerably like large shrubs, growing along the mile-long nature trail near the fine visitor center. This excellent center is open from May 15 to Oct. 15, a “must-see” on your trip to this choice wildlife area.

“Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.” —CONRAD HILTON
Baileys Harbor’s Spot for Gas and Gatherings by PATTY WILLIAMSON, PHD
B
ack in the day, men used to gather ’round the potbelly stove in the general store to drink coffee and share news (and quite likely chew tobacco and spit, which their wives didn’t permit at home). With the general stores long gone, the need for a gathering place still exists. In Baileys Harbor, it’s been supplied for decades by the gas station at 7998 Hwy. 57. The earliest records available in the courthouse indicate that the original owners of that bit of ground were Thomas and Mary McCullough, who purchased it on April 4, 1885. Greg Orsted remembers that the first gas station appeared on the site about 1930. At that time, the gas sold was Socony – an acronym for Standard Oil Company of New York, a spin-off of Rockefeller’s original Standard Oil Company that had been broken up by the anti-trust act of 1911. Ownership passed through many hands in the next few decades – Tom and Elizabeth Collins, George Messer, Anna and William Toft (Emma’s older brother and the Baileys Harbor postmaster from 1918 to 1939), George and Helen Gerdman, and Alfred, Charlotte, Arthur and Marie Koser. The “modern” era began in 1978, when Art Koser died and the station passed to
his stepson, Fredrick Nelson. “Fast Freddy” was the colorful owner for 18 years. Since then, owners have included Katherine Farrell and Cameron, Barbara, Scott and Nancy Isaacson. In 1964, the station burned to the ground and was rebuilt. Before that fire, Art Koser had added an auto body shop to the back of the station. As it was burning he was inside, frantically trying to save equipment. Ten years later, it burned again, but the auto repair shop that had been added to the south side sustained only smoke damage. Freddy added the “back view” section of the station soon after he bought it. In 1980, he hired Orsted to run the auto shop, which he did until he injured his back. For a while, Freddy’s son, Chuck, sold Cub Cadet lawn tractors in the former shop, then Freddy bought the stock of the “old” grocery store in town, operated by Carol Moroney, and moved it to the space adjoining the gas station. Freddy and his wife, Rosemary, lived in a house on the north side of the station that was later moved to the far north end of town. Freddy continued selling Mobil gas (the successor to Socony) out front, but also installed holding tanks and self-service pumps on the site where the house had been and sold what he called “fast gas.”
When Kathy Farrell bought the station in 1998, she added the apartments upstairs. Since 2003, the gas at the station has been Citgo. So many tales and memories associated with the station have accumulated through the years. Will Anschutz, who grew up on the dairy farm where Stone’s Throw Winery is now located, remembers that, in the mid1940s, the old Lutheran church on the hill rewarded children who attended Sunday school with money to buy a comic book at the station afterwards. Freddy remembers that kids from the religion class at the Catholic church used to skip out and come to the station to play cards for money, making sure they were back at the church by the time their folks came to pick them up. Art Koser got into trouble for allowing gambling on the premises. Carol Gauger Goss remembers that Marie Koser, her hair secured in a headscarf, always pumped gas with a cigarette hanging from her lips. The late Betty Gauger and Mary and Catherine Collins were responsible for the first seating arrangement at the station. Faithful daily attenders at mass in Baileys Harbor, they always treated themselves afterward with donuts and coffee at the Fast Stop. Although the wall of windows
Freddy had installed on the east side of the back room provided a wonderful view of the lake, there was nowhere to sit inside and enjoy it. A garage sale card table and chairs the women installed solved that problem for themselves and others. Orsted recalls that there was nothing else open in those days and that a banquet table was added for a morning coffee klatch that sometimes drew nearly a dozen. Some people have probably supposed that the “fast gas” Freddy sold was the source of his nickname, but he says it came from the fact that he never turned down a job. “Whenever someone needed something done,” he says, “people would say, ‘Take it to Fast Freddy. He’ll get around to it.’ And it always got done.” Everyone who was around in the Fast Freddy era remembers the coat made from 180 neckties by Darlene Meyer and her daughter that he wore in July 4th parades. That was just one example of Freddy’s colorful wardrobe. “I never bought any clothes all the time I had the gas station,” he said recently. “Whatever someone wanted to get rid of, I’d wear. I ended up with about 3,000 ties, and I always wore a jacket and tie to work. I definitely wanted to put a little col-

or in the world. If something matched, I’d made a mistake.” When he sold the station, the leftover ties went to a sewing circle in Sturgeon Bay. Freddy says he never missed a day of work in 20 years – always there at 6 am. The donuts people enjoyed at the station came from a bakery in Algoma. Freddy arranged for Bob Bennett, who worked the feed mill in Baileys Harbor, but lived in Algoma, to pick them up every morning. Besides his colorful wardrobe, the thing most people remember about the Fast Freddy era is the battle over the sign in front of the station that had been in the same location since Gerdman owned it. In 1988, when Mobil wanted to implement a “new image” at the station at considerable expense to Freddy, he switched to Union 76. According to a lengthy piece titled The End of a Sign, published by Freddy, the county planning board first told him there would be no problem with putting up a new sign as long as the size did not exceed 24 square feet. Months later, he received a letter saying he had six signs out of compliance and 30 days to fix the problem. After seven hearings, the result was that the sign remained, but Freddy wrapped it in plastic, rendering it a “non-sign.” It stood for four or five years, swaddled in turn in camouflage, orange, blue and green plastic. “Yeah, it was covered,” Freddy says, “but when it was lighted at night, you could still read it.” Freddy lives in Jacksonport now. He says he moved when Baileys Harbor put in sidewalks. In February of this year, Michael Schreiber of Lake Forest, Ill., became the owner of the station, newly christened Baileys 57. Part of a third generation with family ties on Ridges Road, Schreiber’s business is buying, upgrading and selling commercial property like strip malls. New managers of the station are Kari Weisgerber Bauman and Eric Williams. Bauman says that she and Schreiber, longtime friends, had often talked about going into business together. “He considered a restaurant,” she says, “but I’d had enough of that growing up at Cornerstone. I was ready to get out of the restaurant business and he was ready to get into the gas business. It appealed to both of us. Eric has worked at the station for a long time, as well as the Town of Baileys Harbor, so he’s well acquainted with the community.” The new management team, assisted by Bauman’s mother, Sandy Weisgerber, spent two weeks cleaning and renovating and reopened for business on March 9. There’s new shelving in the expanded grocery area, and fresh produce, Victor Allen coffee, packaged meats from Marchant’s, bakery goods from Pink Bakery and Piggly Wiggly and pickled asparagus, salsa, jalapeños and jams “to die for,” from Sammi Rae’s Homemade. There are plans to apply for a license that will allow the station to open a soup and sandwich deli in the future. At present, all the food sold has to be packaged or prepared off-site. Nearly every morning, a number of people congregate there to buy newspapers and catch up on local news. Definitely no tobacco chewing or spitting. And in the area where the three little ladies set up their card table and chairs years ago – there are now four tables that invite customers to enjoy a donut, coffee and a panoramic view of the lake and Anclam Park Beach. On a recent morning, the tables were occupied by eight men and four women. There are six nice picnic tables outside by the water. Summer hours are 6 am to 9 pm daily. In the winter, they’ll close at 7 pm.

edding season is in full swing on the Door Peninsula and its beautiful backdrop has already accentuated many of these summer ceremonies. While the county provides nuptial-seekers with the atmosphere and aesthetic for one of history’s oldest institutions, it will soon provide an outlet for planning and preparing for the big day. “This experience and planning all of this has helped me learn so much,” says Claire Erickson, coordinator of the Bon Fair, a wedding showcase that will be taking place on Aug. 30 at Gordon Lodge in Baileys Harbor. Erickson, owner of Love Bash Design, a start-up business that provides creative nuance and design for events such as weddings and bridal showers, has spent months prepping for her biggest event to date.
“I’ve talked to anyone from florists, people who make wedding dresses, bartenders from all over, photo booth people, food truck companies, wedding cake people, microbreweries, etc.,” Erickson says. The model for Bon Fair was inspired by the fun, trendy, wedding expos Erickson had seen out west. “I saw wedding shows in California where they were more like parties than expos and it was showing everyone’s (vendors) talent,” Erickson says. Having been to a number of “boring” wedding shows, Erickson saw the potential in having a fun-filled evening that will feature elaborate booths and a meet-and-greet with representatives from a variety of vendors from the Door County/greater Midwest area. Cascading flowers will be flowing from the various floral stations. Savory aromas will fill the air as culinary artists provide a plethora of samples that will cater to the taste buds of any wedding invitee. A bevy of cocktail samples at the event that may help attendees of Bon Fair hit the dance floor,
complete with a DJ, as the evening progresses. “People are cooking right in front of you, they’re mixing drinks right in front of you,” Erickson says in regard to the cuisine and beverage options. Fun features such as a bridal fashion show and a photo booth contribute to the event’s ensemble as well. Bon Fair isn’t limited to the betrothed only, but to anyone looking to have a fun evening out or to get ideas for a non-nuptial event. “It’s not just for brides and grooms,” Erickson says. “It’s really for anyone that wants to come and have a good time.” The evening promises breakaway from the sometimes mundane and tedious details of wedding planning. “I want people to feel inspired for a new take on their wedding,” Erickson says. “I want the process to be more fun and I want them to know about other options and not just traditional options.” Tickets can be purchased online at lovebashdesign.com or at the door. The event takes place from 4 to 9 pm.

More than a century ago, the first Belgian settlers arrived in southern Door County and quickly became the largest Belgian population in the nation. A compliment to the pioneers of beer, every farmhouse ale resonates a seasonal sensation. With a malty backbone and brewed with Belgian saison yeast, white and dark wheat, caramel malts and rye, their fall release, L’automne, has just the right amount of warm spice, bright citrus and a dry finish. • Proposals for Buy Local, Buy Wisconsin grant-funded projects are now being accepted from individuals, groups, businesses and organizations involved in Wisconsin agriculture, food processing, food distribution, food warehousing, retail food establishments or agricultural tourism sites.

Hay harvested from CRP acres may be used by the program participant, sold or donated to another individual. Prior to haying, CRP participants must visit their local FSA office to sign a request to hay the acreage and work with the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to amend the conservation plan. Not all CRP acreage is eligible for haying. Any acreage that has been seeded to a cover within the last 12 months or planted to trees or shrubs, is within 120 feet of a stream or other permanent water body, enrolled as a filter strip, or any other CRP practice that is, by policy, prohibited from being hayed is considered ineligible for haying. In addition, the haying of CRP acreage is only allowed once every three years; acreage that was hayed in 2013 or 2014 is not eligible for haying in 2015. Haying or grazing cannot begin until the participant receives written approval in the form of a letter from FSA. Producers who hay or graze CRP acreage without first obtaining approval from FSA will be subject to payment reductions and/or contract termination. Interested parties should contact their local FSA office for more information.

BY THE NUMBERS Women’s Equality Day On Aug. 26, 1920 – after decades of work by suffragettes and others concerned with women’s rights – the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was passed, granting women the right to vote. Fifty-one years later, in 1971, at the urging of then-U.S. Representative Bella Abzug, Congress designated Aug. 26 as Women’s Equality Day to commemorate the passage of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution. Yet, as the numbers below show, the gender gap continues.

Is Kitchens Listening?
Dog Days of Summer by DALE GOODNER
W
e are in the midst of that toasty torrid time commonly called the Dog Days of Summer. In the northern hemisphere, this is generally the hottest, most sultry spell of the year. You can feel dog tired and sicker than a dog. Things seem to be going to the dogs, so you just don’t feel like putting on the dog. Since heat impacts all of us, we all have a dog in this hunt, so to speak… Children’s author Natalie Babbitt describes dog days well: “The first week of August is motionless, and hot. It is curiously silent, too, with blank white dawns and glaring noons, and sunsets smeared with too much color. Often at night there is lightning, but it quivers all alone. There is no thunder, no relieving rain. These are strange and breathless days, the dog days, when people are led to do things they are sure to be sorry for after.” Dog days generally refers to July and August, and even part of September. People have speculated for countless centuries why it gets so doggone hot. The dog star, known as Sirius, is the brightest star in the winter sky, next to the sun. In July and August, it actually rises and sets with the sun. The Romans believed it provided heat as well as light, and hence, during this time contributed to a hot, unpleasant period associated with an evil time “when the seas boiled, wine turned sour, dogs grew mad, and all creatures became languid, causing to man-burning fevers, hysterics, and phrensies” (Brady’s Clavis Calendaria, 1813). In order to minimize the impacts of hot sultry weather, the ancient Romans would sacrifice a brown dog at the beginning of the dog days. This was to appease the rage of the dog star, believing that it was the cause. Sirius is far larger and hotter than our sun, but in reality, it is nearly nine lightyears away, negating any possible influence, to say the least. And I’d guess it cares nothing about dog sacrifices. Although this period is named for “man’s best friend,” it isn’t about dogs at all, at least not directly. Actually the warm dog days coincide with Earth’s tilted axis as it revolves around the sun. When North America is tilted toward the sun during daylight, it receives more direct rays resulting in greater heating (summer). The fact that the dog star spends that short time, during the warmest period, traveling with the sun, is nothing more than coincidence. We have a long history of connecting inappropriate dots, and have often confused coincidence with cause. But sometimes coincidence can betray cause. Back in the early 19th century, atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2, a greenhouse gas) began to increase significantly and continues today on a steep upward curve. Average temperature coincidentally follows basically the same upward curve. Heat is trapped by greenhouse gas in much the same way greenhouse glass traps heat. The more CO2, the greater the effect on global temperature.
Atmospheric CO2 has increased from 315 parts per million to more than 400 parts per million just since 1960. Each year we are adding another 40 billion tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. The impact of combustion-produced carbon dioxide on climate is sometimes called the “Callendar effect,” named for engineer and inventor, Guy Stewart Callendar, who was one of the first to propose this association back in 1938. We are in the hottest time of the year, but also in the hottest time of the past couple centuries. We can call global warming a “natural cycle,” or, like the Romans, we could even blame the dog star, Sirius, but today overwhelming evidence shows, “The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves.” According to almost every climate scientist today, the cause of current global warming is the rapid buildup of atmospheric, human-generated, greenhouse gasses. This is well beyond mere dog days. Many scientists warn we are looking at warm “dog centuries” to come. It’s hard to predict what this will mean to our grandchildren and great-grandchildren. On one thing there is agreement among scientists. We have impacted the atmosphere on a more rapid scale than has ever been known. Weaning ourselves off of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, will be a major and necessary challenge. Our political leadership has thus far lacked the will to lead in this crucial area. But the good news is people are finally starting to see through a smokescreen of disinformation in the mainstream media. You can now find good information on global warming. Sometimes it’s in very unexpected places. Among the gossip tabloids at the grocery store checkout I happened to notice, The Complete Idiot’s Guide To Global Warming by Michael Tennesen. Not sure whether this was a guide to warming the globe, or a fix-it guide, I bought it. Besides, it only cost the equivalent of a half-gallon of gas. It actually does a decent job informing the reader (presumably not a complete idiot) about the complexities of global warming. Let’s hope the dog star can become our lucky star. After all, to err is human…to forgive, canine. Maybe it’s time that rather than blaming Sirius, we get serious and herald in a period of greenhouse gas reduction, and restoration of this, the best of all possible worlds.
For 1st Assembly District constituents who were paying attention to the “listening” sessions after the initial announcement of the 2015-17 biennial state budget, and based on his near absolute public silence throughout the budget process, it is difficult to determine what concerns were actually ever heard by Representative Kitchens. Viewing the final budget, none of the issues voiced then, about job creation, fair wages and benefits, about preserving and restoring public education or respecting our state’s teachers, about preserving critical personal care for the elderly or disabled, and absolutely none of the critical concerns about our natural environmental protection issues seem to have registered with Representative Kitchens. During the budget process we heard Kitchens explain that being a first term legislator is a difficult, at times overwhelming process with a steep learning curve. We heard reports that he was working behind the scenes to get things accomplished; both are reasonable and understandable claims. We read in Door County meeting minutes that Rep. Nygren, (R-Marinette) was his, “budget buddy,” and someone with that legislative committee clout to learn from should have been an advantage to addressing voiced constituent concerns. Have a look at some of what constituents got with the budget and other legislation Rep Kitchens publicly voiced no opposition to, nor concerns about. We have DNR rules enforcement near completely gutted, Family Care and IRIS are going under the control of for-profit insurance companies, public education is further gutted at all levels through shifting public dollars to unaccountable school entities, criminalization of the unemployed and needy through attempted drug-testing of recipients while tax cuts to industrial manufacturing and corporate industrial agriculture (CAFOs) grow by another $250 million. This is just the start, but Mr. Kitchens without being specific stated he is not happy with the entire budget. A lock-step partisan on every issue except for the Bucks’ arena funding doesn’t say much to his credibility in adequately or successfully “representing” his district nor to his listening skills. Our otherwise “quiet” Representative Kitchens did however show a surprising natural ability to speak on the floor of the Assembly on April 14. Representative Andy Jorgensen, (D-Milton) brought a resolution aimed at enacting a permanent ban on the introduction of any future “religious conscience” amendment, such as the controversial one passed and then quickly dropped in Indiana. Representative Kitchens spoke up in firm opposition to Jorgensen’s bill that would have barred Republicans from bringing future constitutional amendments or other legislation allowing discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, religion or any of a host of other classifications and also called for the Assembly to reaffirm protecting the civil rights of all Wisconsinites and to denounce bigotry and hate. Having clearly stated his legislative, “moral” imperative on the Assembly floor, questions about Kitchens’ support for Rep. Jacque’s (R-De Pere) current attempts at criminalizing women’s reproductive health care rights, about the proposed Republican dismantling of the GAB, about placing limits on the John Doe process or about future legislative majority goals at restricting and usurping more local control over environmental, education funding or zoning issues, all suggest questions to be brought

Thanks for the Walk The Door County Medical Center Auxiliary wishes to thank all those who contributed to the success of the 55th Annual House & Garden Walk held on July 28. It was indeed a success, hosting more than 1,200 people from our great state of Wisconsin and Illinois, and netting approximately $35,000, all of which goes to the Ministry Door County Medical Center Dental Clinic and Skilled Nursing Facility. A very special “thank you” to each one of our committee chairs and co-chairs for their outstanding jobs throughout the year in preparation of the walk. We also wish to thank our wonderful homeowners who were so kind in permitting us to showcase their beautiful homes and/or gardens: Robert Carroll, Sturgeon Bay; Maribeth & Scott Hetherington, Sturgeon Bay; Kathy & Roger Nulton, Egg Harbor; Mary Ann & Gary Guterman (garden only), Ephraim; and Danielle & Lou Covotsos, Ellison Bay. Our thanks also to sponsors, newspapers, magazines and radio stations for their excellent coverage, without your assistance we could never have reached out to so many people. And then, of course, there are our terrific volunteers...those who contributed their time as hostesses, cashiers, parkers, and anyone else who donated their time to the event. You are all appreciated, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you to each and every one of you!

Time for Public Meetings Congressman Ribble, it’s time for public meetings. Our US Congress is on its second longest recess of the year, over a month long. This time is usually spent getting in touch with constituents – us. Not so much for our Congressman Reid Ribble, who represents all of Northeastern Wisconsin. Since January 2011 when he took office, Congressman Ribble has not held a town hall or listening session in Door County. In fact, his official website indicates he has held few public meetings outside of the Fox Valley in his 4 ½ years in office. Maybe he needs an invitation to a public meeting from one of our fine media outlets or non-partisan groups? To be fair, many members of Congress feel they can forego public meetings with their constituents. Why, I wonder? So let me thank Assemblyman Joel Kitchens for giving priority to public meetings with constituents. He has five events scheduled! The details are listed in this Pulse issue. Kitchens is showing the leadership we need. I hope they are all well attended, and both the attendees and Assemblyman Kitchens learn much from each other. Whether you call them “town halls” or “listening sessions,” public meetings are an important part of any legitimate democracy, don’t you agree? Dick Kaiser Sister Bay, Wis.
Candidate Koch He boasts that he’s a preacher’s son— he begins each speech with that;
then extols his rural upbringing in Iowa farmland, green and flat; he claims to be as common as dirt, and as honest as the corn that grows, forgetting, perhaps, that like the corn he’s now a walking, talking GMO. His views owe less to Eagle scouting than to opinion polling; he’s been groomed for this by experts, who foot the bills to keep him rolling; he never says a thing today he won’t modify tomorrow: and if he gets tangled in the truth, there’s a Reagan quip he can borrow. He claims he loves the working class: Its unions and pensions he hates. Obamacare smacks of socialism, as does any federal mandate. He’ll save the schools by destroying them: forget knowledge, go learn a trade; folks should be free to work several jobs, all week for minimum wage. Women can’t be trusted with things, like the workings of their own bodies; and voters can’t be trusted to vote without proving their identities. The solution to rampant gun violence is to make guns more readily available; and cutting taxes creates more revenue— that’s a fact that’s unassailable. The government is much too large, he says, but just the right size for him; he’s lived most his life on the tax payer’s dime; his private sector experience? Slim. As governor he considers it his task to bring the Welfare State to an end; if there’s money to hand out, forget the poor— those millions are meant for his friends. As he tours the country in his campaign bus or rolls up to rallies on his bike; when he stands on stage in televised debates and speaks doubletalk into the mic, remember this man who claims that he knows how to fix all the things that we broke is a wholly owned subsidiary of Charles and David Koch. Mike Orlock Sturgeon Bay, Wis.
Even Chickens Learn From Experience It is almost amusing to see the trend of dairy farming in Wisconsin today under the urging of the University and Department of Agriculture claiming the need to expand to be able to keep up with demands to “feed the world.” Europe and Asia are at all time high milk production and have surplus of their own and dropping prices to deal with. It seems that there is a manifesto that has been put in place to put small farmers out of business as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, for those leaders it is the small farms that have stabilized the industry through the decades and continue to do so, even while fewer in numbers. One of the advantages the small family farms enjoy is the ability to contain their operation within their own holdings and not have to spend a major part of their income in transporting field forage crops and the immense amount of manure that is generated at a central location. That’s a huge advantage and may save some of the small farm operations and make them sustainable. The stewardship and ecological responsibility becomes secondary to the need to dispose of the massive amount of waste that is now a disposal problem all over. The reliance on maximum spreading amounts that were dictated by the voluntary nutrient management plans has shown that it does not work. Stewardship and ecological responsibility have been given a secondary role in large-scale production as brought out in the increasing problems of the last few years. There is a new effort to improve the enforcement capabilities of the nutrient management plans, but that same problem will remain regardless of the new regulations, that problem is enforcement – nothing will have changed – as before, Fridays and weekend spreading will be unchallenged, unless by citizen observation and recording, too often after-the-fact. These comments are based on my own experience of 43 years of producing milk for the Grade A Chicago Fluid Milk Market, which historically paid substantially more than the Grade B market which consisted of cheese and other dairy product manufacturing. Grade A milk mandated an inspection twice yearly by Chicago Board
of Health inspectors and quality had to be maintained. Under Wisconsin law for manufacturing milk – less than Grade A producers are inspected by the processor who buys the milk. In other words, if you are a producer who processes your own manufacturing grade milk, you are your own inspector for quality control. You can see where this is going. To continue to produce in excess of the market needs and not to respond to those needs with curtailed production is playing with disaster. This has been proven several times and Grade A farmers operated on a quota system that worked well all those years. There was no effort by unknown forces to get farmers to expand with entirely borrowed resources, other than the University push to “get bigger,” in order to compete with California for the Dairyland title, and help maintain the banking industry.

Poet’s Nest
by Barbara Larsen / 98 pages, Beach Road Press, 2015 by GARY JONES
P
ast Door County Poet Laureate Barbara Larsen has been an integral part of the peninsula’s poetry community since 1986 when she and her late husband, George, became full-time residents in the house they had built on a Beach Road bluff overlooking the waters of Green Bay. Nestled in her writing chair before a window or perched in her gazebo, she found inspiration for her poetry. Because she has enjoyed a bird’s eye view of nature over the years, the title of her recently released eighth chapbook seems especially appropriate: Poet’s Nest. Her latest book takes a different approach than the others in that she includes journal entries along with poems, sometimes pairing the reflection with the formal text that it inspired, offering readers a glimpse into her poetic process. In the forward to her book, Larsen recalls a conversation with the late Norbert Blei in which he encouraged her not only to offer this combination, but to reproduce copies of journal pages. The tone of Poet’s Nest differs from her earlier books in that the poet, now 88, is at a point in her life at which she not only looks back but also contemplates the meaning of that existence, now that she has lost her husband of more than 60 years and has moved from her home on Beach Road to a retirement community. But while the tone of her book is at times somber, it is not one of regret and certainly not self-pity. Her life as a poet has included not only publications of her work and awards for her verse, but teaching workshops for students and adults, and founding two ongoing writing groups of which she continues to be a member. Her latest book is not a valedictory to her readers but rather a progress report. The chapbook is divided into four sections: Living in the Now, Landscapes as Friends, Cycles, and Dharma. Entries and poems (some written recently, others culled from her past) reflect upon her life experiences, observations and philosophy, one that draws upon Eastern influences. As current Door County Poet Laureate Ralph Murre observed, her book “is evidence of a great wisdom gleaned from a life well-spent in the search for truths and, yes, in the pursuit of happiness. “This is a book of very philosophical poetry,” he continued, “by one of our most deservedly revered tribal elders” offering “glimpses into the author’s journals, lending insight and illumination to the selected verse.” For example, the 1992 journal entry preceding “Winter Dance” reads in part: “Put down a poem which I had taken notes on in the dark one night after we [she and her husband] had lain snuggled together while the wind howled & rain pelted the roof….I had tentatively called it ‘Winter Dawn’ but [workshop leader] Neil suggested ‘Winter Dance’ which is much better.” The resultant poem begins: Wind is a wall of sound enclosing the house. Waves of sleet sweep across the roof. In our quilted burrow slightest toe movements bring shock of cold sheets. He turns and I slip into his curve commingling heats warmth of skin resting bones muscles soft with sleep.

Cover image: Katie Rericha
Some of her poems take her back to her girlhood, as does “Days of Sunshine,” which opens: I speak of a time and a place when the days were a yellow ribbon unwinding languorously down the long road of summer. Pure days of a village summer where mornings brought tree climbing in the orchard while dew still beaded the long grass. Her poem “consider the tree” speaks of her developing philosophy of life: it doesn’t analyze its root system or agonize over its size or the direction its branches are taking it just keeps growing in two directions one end nurtured by rich darkness the other reaching toward luminous light She finds life’s meaning in her poem “Essentials” in something as simple as three women sitting on a bench watching the sun set Watching the sun sink into the bay from Beach Road in “Wonder” offers insight into death, the opportunity to see for ourselves before it is time for us to know like a child pretending sleep in order to listen in on grownup secrets. Those readers who have enjoyed Larsen’s earlier books will welcome the opportunity to once again return to her life viewed from a “nest” atop the Beach Road bluff overlooking the panorama of Green Bay waters. New readers will discover for themselves the talent that earned Barbara Larsen the honor of serving as the county’s first living poet laureate. Poet’s Nest: Journal Entries and Poems by Barbara Larsen is available for $12 at Main Street Market in Egg Harbor.

“There is no surer method of evading the world than by following Art, and no surer method of linking oneself to it than by Art.” —JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETHE
Journeyman plumber Ben Anschutz in his Baileys Harbor studio, where he repurposes fossils, rocks, copper wire, and tubes into one-of-a-kind works of art through his artistic endeavor, Door County Copper Works.
The Feeling of Motion Ben Anschutz and the art of copper sculptures by ALYSSA SKIBA alyssa.skiba@ppulse.com
T
his weekend, the Peninsula School of Art will open Unusually Natural, an exhibition of unusual media taking natural forms, from 3D printed plant-like plastic sculptures to leaf skeletons woven from strands of human hair. Among the five artists exhibiting their representational and whimsical works of art is Ben Anschutz, a Baileys Harbor resident who uses his expertise as a journeyman plumber to give new life to the cast-off copper and wire of his day job. Influenced by the beauty and complexity of the local environment, Anschutz creates one-of-a-kind fine art sculptures of trees, plants and wildlife using copper tubing, wire and natural materials. Today, those pieces of art are branded under Anschutz’s small art business, Door County Copper Works. “Each piece captures the timelessness and strength of Wisconsin’s stunning landscapes, from the windswept trees of the peninsula to the weathered driftwood of the lakeshore,” a brochure for Door County Copper Works reads.
Anschutz is a lifelong artist whose two-dimensional creations during his college years made way for copper just a few years ago while the Door County native lived and worked in Carlsville. The inspiration? “Work, really,” Anschutz said. “The amount of scrap laying around and working with it everyday…I found with the copper and wire I could really capture the feeling of motion.” Motion is the central theme of his tree sculptures – with a fossilized rock forming the base of most pieces, Anschutz hand-bends wire to create the roots, trunk and branches of the sculptures, which range in size from a few inches to a couple feet. One sculpture in particular was inspired by a tree at Maxwelton Braes Golf Course that lived long enough for Anschutz to photograph and immortalize it in copper before becoming victim to the Aug. 2, 2015 storms that swept over the county. As he has become more comfortable with the medium, the themes and stature of his creations have expanded. While he admits he can’t quite get away from making trees, he has successfully created figurative sculptures of cattails and lilies, wildlife skulls, water birds and monograms. “I just start dismantling things visually,” Anschutz explained. “For the cattails piece, I actually brought cattails
back here in the fall and took them apart piece by piece and learned how they were growing. I recreated that in bronze from what I saw. The lily pads, the same thing – I brought the lily pad home, templated it, and took lots of photographs.” Relying on the buckets of found rocks, fossils and cast-off copper sitting in his garage has allowed Anschutz to thrive in an artistic hobby that, time provided, gives him the freedom to create in ways he ordinarily can’t on the job. “Plumbing all day with the copper, you can do it wrong, you can make mistakes,” he said. “I come home here at night and you can’t do it wrong. You just work at it until you like it. It’s different – same material, totally different.” Unusually Natural is Anschutz’s first invitational show. He has taken part in the annual Guenzel Gallery Salon a few times, winning third place for the People’s Choice Award in 2014 for his sculpture, “Apple Tree in Limestone.” Unusually Natural will be on display from Aug. 22 – Oct. 18 at the Peninsula School of Art and is free and open to the public.

1 Night Moves
2 Kindness and Boldness
Door County artists Rebecca Carlton and Tony Staroska announce the opening reception of “Night Moves/New Work” at Juddville Clay Studio Gallery on Aug. 27, 7 – 9 pm. Carlton’s “Night Moves” is composed of six large, black clay tablets painted and incised in white with drawings of individual endangered moths living throughout numerous continents. Each exquisitely carved moth is reminiscent of detailed scientific illustrations. The exhibit’s opening piece displays an empty Riker insect case, void of moths under their pins. Carlton seems to be posing the questions, what has happened, to these mostly unnoticed endangered night creatures? What is our responsibility, if any, to their protection? In contrast to Carlton’s philosophically charged black and white pieces are Staroska’s beautifully thrown and hand built forms. His “New Work” ranges from small, intimate hand nestled bird forms to large organic, biomorphic sculptures. Staroska specializes in unusual firing techniques, which create vibrant and exciting clay surfaces. These include raku, saggar and salt processes. In addition to viewing the new work, Carlton and Staroska invite visitors to create their own ”Night Moves” using sparklers. The later reception time is to allow for better viewing of the interactive light dances. Ice cream sundaes will be served. Juddville Clay Studio Gallery is located at 8496 Highway 42 in Juddville, in the blue schoolhouse across the street from Emerson Chiropractic. The gallery is open 10 am – 5 pm daily. For more information call 920.868.2021.
Dorothy McDowell and Bethany Kirwen are the Door County Art League Gallery’s artists of the week for Aug. 22 – 28. The immediacy and invigorating character of plein air painting is a creative stimulant for McDowell, the art league’s coordinator of plein air painting. “The sensations of being out in nature: fresh air, changing light and clouds, shadows and colors, all simultaneously assault the senses,” she says. A seasonal resident of Liberty Grove, McDowell looks for bold shapes and shadows to create strong compositions in her plein air acrylics. Architecture, boats and geometric landscape shapes are among her favorite subjects, which she tries to depict with a loose impressionistic style. One technique she uses is a warm tinted undercoat which she exposes in places to give extra emphasis to light and pop to color. Sturgeon Bay resident Bethany Kirwen uses a “glass half full” approach to her art. Creating art should be fun and an exploration, she says. She employs a variety of media – acrylics, soft and oil pastels, and mixed media – to emphasize mood, movement and reflection on a particular place in time in both studio and plein air. “My goals are to encourage each and every person to color their world with kindness, face their fears with determination to conquer them, pursue their dreams, and have faith in themselves,” she says. The Door County Art League Gallery is open Monday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm, and Sunday, 11 am to 3 pm. It is located in the courtyard of the Top of the Hill shops in Fish Creek, at the corner of Highway 42 and Spring
Road. For more information visit doorcountyartleague.org.
3 Interdependence of All Things Cappaert Contemporary Gallery welcomes Santa Fe, New Mexico artist Rachel Darnell. Owner Ginnie Cappaert states, “Rachel’s work is unlike any you have seen before. Her woven canvas layers painted with gold and silver leaf and oil paints evokes tonal qualities with an ancient feel to her work.” Darnell is a nationally known artist and is now represented here in the Midwest. Her contemporary edge fits nicely with the selected artists showing at Cappaert Contemporary Gallery. Darnell says, “I developed and have been painting in the technique of woven canvas for 20 years to represent and emphasize the interconnectedness and interdependence of all things. It is a simple structure, yet profound in its strength. I combine the immediacy and expressiveness of painting with the primitive structure of weaving. My travels into some of the most ancient cities of the world have inspired my use of gold and silver leafing, like that, which has been used to convey divinity since antiquity. Gold and silver leaf creates a jewel-like quality in the hues and pigments and evokes the tonal qualities of the ancients.” Cappaert Contemporary Gallery is located at 7901 Highway 42 and features the work of 30 regional and national artists working in painting, clay, sculpture, mixed media and jewelry. The gallery is open daily at 10 am through October. For more information, call 920.868.3987 or visit CappaertContemporary.com.

2428 So. Bay Shore Dr. China has re-emerged as a dominant place in the modern world, yet the Yunnan province in western China, while colorful and exotic, has a less-hurried, more reflective way of life. The unique meld of a variety of ethnic people, their colorful dress, food and landscape give the visitor to Yunnan an exciting, sensuous treat. The Linden Gallery is hosting a photographic exhibit which features 24 photographers from across the country, who, under the direction of noted photographer Douglas Beasley, are presenting a rich, artful depiction of the beauty of Yunnan and its people. The exhibit can be viewed from Sept. 2 through Oct. 19 at the Linden Gallery in Ellison Bay. The participants in this show have all enjoyed studying the philosophy and practice of photography with Beasley, while being amiably hosted and expertly guided by Jeanee and Brian Linden in their historical Chinese mansion in the center of Yunnan. For the past five years, the Lindens have been hosting a group of photographers to China led by Beasley.

5 New Works for August The Summer Art Show at the Meadows Art Gallery in Sister Bay is winding down. This show has had Door County artists bringing in new work, changing the show’s direction throughout the summer. Now, Myrna Leigh Cohn has contributed new pieces that show another side of her art expressions and directions. Cohn’s work already exhibited is very contemporary with non-objective use of space, color, texture and compositional elements. The energy of paint strokes and the use of fluid color combine with personal feelings and emotions, to bring the energy of life experiences. The new work goes another way. Still primarily non-objective she suggests shapes, line, color and compositions that have abstracted representational direction. She still uses paint energy in the color and the paint application, but abstracted

landscape and still life are her new way to see familiar subject matter. The gallery also is showing art from Faith Frykman, Pat Olson, Debra Stroh-Larson, Ed Fenendael, Barbara Sweeney, Madonna Siles, Karen DeNoto and Tim Kornowski. The Meadows Art Gallery is located at Scandia Village on Highway 57 (the construction does not block the entry). Hours are 10 am to 5 pm daily. For more information call 920.854.2317.

The Door County Maritime Museum will host the Door County Art League’s 29th Annual Members Showcase beginning with an opening reception Aug. 21, 7 – 8:30 pm. The exhibit opens to the public Aug. 22 and runs until Oct. 18. Artwork selected for exhibition must have a maritime focus in keeping with the showcase theme, “All Along the Shore.” A high point of the annual showcase is the selection of the year’s Master Artist. Presentation of the juried awards, Master Artist and People’s Choice Award will take place at the opening reception. Light refreshments will be served with museum members admitted free and guests for $5. The Door County Maritime Museum is located at 120 N. Madison Ave. in Sturgeon Bay. For more information visit dcmm.org.
On Aug. 23, 4:30 – 7 pm, Woodwalk Gallery will host a reception for the three artists in its season’s third featured artist show: Anne Egan, Simon Levin and Marjorie Mau. Music at the reception will be provided by Marybeth Mattson and Seth Raddatz. Artists will begin speaking at 5:45 pm. Light appetizers and beverages will be available. Egan is an artist engaged in a soulful dialogue between herself and events, perceptions, objects and relationships. She has said about her work that “nothing is ever lost or destroyed” even though it may be covered by many layers of paint in her deeply textured paintings. Levin melds function and process in his wood-fired pottery. He says, “My work is made in dialogue with the effects on the clay of the firing process and the kiln themselves…wood-firing is a process rich in variables with evidence of human touch integral to the design.”
G ILL S RO C K STONEWARE
Mau’s process starts with photographs, then she paints them from different perspectives creating new boundaries and edges, intersections and voids. She explores places in a variety of seasons and weather. She tends to paint in series with one painting questioning the order of things and the next answering but raising new questions to explore. The show runs from Aug. 21 – Oct. 9 with the gallery open daily 10 am – 5 pm. Woodwalk Gallery is located at 6746 County Road G, five miles south of Egg Harbor, just off Highway 42. For more information call 920.868.2912.

School of Art. Youell was introduced to silversmithing at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. As soon as she took a semester of art metal, that was all she wanted to do in the art department. By 1976 she had opened Sylvercroft Studio at her home on County ZZ in Sister Bay. Although Youell does make jewelry for the gallery, her favorite challenge is creating sculptural objects using a variety of techniques. At her presentation, she will show the results of several techniques in working in metal. There will be a silver bowl resting on a synclastic base and “The Amazing Toy,” a top that opens up and contains two more toys. She will bring award-winning works to demonstrate the possibilities in silversmithing. The presentation is free and open to the public.

11 Rosemaling Demonstration Loretta Paulman will display her incredible talent for rosemaling at the Sister Bay Historical Society Corner of the Past on Aug. 22, 8:30 am – 12 pm. Rosemaling is a folk art which dates back to southern Norway circa the 1700s. It’s the art of painting stylized flowers with intricate and sweeping scroll forms. Paulman studied in Norway and has been doing it for more than 45 years. She has taught it for the past 30 years. She includes several different styles and her work reflects her many years of experience of painting this intricate art form. Rosemaling is a style familiar to many in Door County because of the Scandinavian roots of many of its settlers and current residents. For several summers the Sister Bay Historical Society has held its Heritage Program featuring local artists every Saturday morning throughout the summer, in addition to the Saturday morning farmers’ market. The Sister Bay Historical Society is located at the Corner of the Past at 10310 Fieldcrest Road, Sister Bay. For more information visit sisterbayhistory.org.

From the Tony, Oscar and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “Doubt” and “Moonstruck.” The Wisconsin première of a sweet and prickly love story featuring Anthony and Rosemary, 40-ish next door neighbors in rural Ireland, who are caught in their families land dispute. John Patrick Shanley’s lyrical Irish romantic comedy tenderly reminds us that it’s never too late to take a chance on love.
Indoors or outdoors, feast on our Italian tapas and choose from over 250 California and Italian wines... at least 40 by the glass, all from our Wine Spectator® award winning list.
“Breathtaking … so tenderly written that it would melt a stone.” - Variety Curtain Times: Tues. – Sat. 8 p.m.; Sun. 7:30 p.m. except Sunday, September 6 at 4 p.m. No shows Mondays.

OUTDOORS WITH COGGIN HEERINGA
Herring Gulls In Heat by COGGIN HEERINGA
O
n a swelteringly summer day, a visit to the beach is a great idea – for us and the birds. If we humans are roasting in high temperatures, imagine what it must be like for creatures covered in the equivalent of a down comforter. But no matter how hot, the quintessential birds of the beach, the gulls, seem able to get some relief. And gulls need relief. Sandy beaches are extremely hot. Birds that nest or even loaf by the shore are in real danger of overheating. Have you
ever noticed when gulls gather on a beach, they all seem to be facing in the same direction? Fact is, gulls almost always face the sun. According to The Birder’s Handbook, by Dobkin, Ehrich and Wheye, “Nesting Herring Gulls will rotate 180 degrees to constantly face the sun on hot, windless days. This effectively minimizes the amount of radiative heat gain, allowing the gulls to present only their more reflective plumage (white head, neck and breast) to direct sunlight.” In the wintertime, we’ve all observed gulls squatting or standing on one foot (with the other foot tucked into the nice warm feathers) to prevent the loss of body heat from un-feathered legs. The reverse is true
OUTDOOR NOTES Join a naturalist on Aug. 27 at 10 am to explore the newest addition to The Ridges’ campus. This recently acquired property forms the northern boundary of The Ridges and features ledges, a hardwood forest, open fields and many opportunities to see birds and blooms in a variety of habitats. Fees for the Upland Hike are $5 for Ridges members and $8 for the general public. Children under 18 hike free. Lovers of aquatic plants will enjoy an Aquatic Plant ID Field Trip from 9 am – noon on Aug. 28. Josh Sulman, Environmental Scientist with Stantec in Madison, will lead a hike through some of the more remote wetland areas of The Ridges to identify late-flowering wetland plants and some rare aquatics not typically seen from the trails or boardwalks. Portions of this hike may be wet, and participants should plan clothing and
in summer. Birds fully expose both legs or, better, wade or paddle in the water to help dissipate heat. When sitting on their nests, parent gulls pant like dogs in an effort to keep cool. The wider they open their beaks, the greater the evaporation from their mouth linings, throats and lungs and that helps draw the heat from their bodies. For the first few days after hatching, gull chicks have an especially difficult time with thermal regulation. Though the beach generally has no natural shade, the adult gulls cast shadows. Somehow young gulls know to use their parents as beach umbrellas and to huddle in the shade.
We might learn from the gulls. Shade helps beat the heat. Our homes and work places are much cooler if shades or curtains are closed on sunny days, especially on the south and west sides of a building. Better yet, planting shade trees protects buildings from the full brunt of the afternoon sun. With or without air conditioning, shade is a great way to increase comfort and save energy, and it’s almost as good as a visit to the beach to beat the heat. Coggin Heeringa is the Director of Crossroads at Big Creek and Instructor of Environmental Studies at the Interlochen Arts Camp.

footwear accordingly. Field trip fees are $30 for Ridges members and $40 for the general public. Learn how to help the population of Monarch Butterflies at The Ridges’ Monarch Magic program, offered on both Aug. 28 and 29 at 1 pm. After a brief overview about the Monarch’s life cycle and the species’ fall migration, accompany a naturalist into the field to capture and tag as many Monarchs as possible to assist in tracking their fall migration routes. Program fees are $10 for Ridges members, $13 for the general public and $5 for children under 18. All programs meet at the Cook-Fuller Center, 8166 Hwy 57 in Baileys Harbor.

The Door County Historical Society’s monthly dinner meeting will be a Picnic on the Preserve at the Heritage Village at Big Creek, 2041 Michigan St., Sturgeon Bay, on Aug. 24. The evening’s program will feature demonstrations by the volunteer blacksmiths, historic tours of the Greene Store, Vignes School, Petersen Granary, Chapel, Kohl’s Fish House, Warren House, Schopf House, the under-construction Hand Tool Museum, and the Norwegian Hanson House.

Best of Show winner, the Time Bandit. Keith Miller of Northbrook, Ill., earned Best of Show with his boat Time Bandit in a field of 35 boats at the Door County Maritime Museum Classic & Wooden Boat Festival Aug. 7 & 8 in Sturgeon Bay. Other winners at the festival included George & Neil Zachariasen, who won the Sikaflex Challenge boatbuilding competition, and artist Brian Pier, whose work “Docks on the Bay” claimed first place This is an exciting time in Village history as they will also celebrate the “roof-raising” at the Hand Tool Museum, as the installation of roof rafters is well underway. Volunteers have truly “logged” more than 800 hours in its construction and will be on hand to share their vision for the project. Dinner participants may select a tour of the Village at their choice of 4:45, 5, or 5:15 pm or stroll the path to the Hanson House between 4:45 and 5:30. The 6 pm picnic supper is ham, roast beef, and turkey sandwiches; fresh mixed fruit, baked beans, oriental coleslaw; and cherry or apple bars for dessert. The Member dinner cost is $13 and the guest fee is $17. For reservations, call 920.421.2332.
A special feature in August is a one-day blacksmithing class on Aug. 29, from 9 am to 1 pm in the Petersen Granary. Using a coalfired forge, participants will learn how to read a fire, coal management, use of hammer, metal movement, proper tool names, and how to make an “S-hook” and a leaf. The fee is $150 for guests and $100 for Door County Historical Society members. Participants are limited to adults 18 and over and are required to sign a waiver. Students are required to wear wool or cotton apparel and eye protection. To register, call 920.431.2332.

Day in Death’s Door A group of retired Door County residents have a hiking club led by Al Wittenkeller. They hike together from October to March (and snowshoe in the winter months), and every summer Wittenkeller organizes a special outing. On Aug. 11, they went to Plum Island for a hike. The trip started from Gills Rock aboard the Yankee Clipper. Friends of Plum and Pilot Islands were on hand to provide historical interpretation and to lead the hikes. Captain Chris also took the group past Pilot Island. They would like to thank everyone involved for a wonderful day in Death’s Door. Photo by Tim Sweet.

Make It Routine
Bay Ridge
by MATT STOTTERN

hat an amazing week of golf we experienced here in Wisconsin at the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits. I was fortunate enough to be at the course on Friday watching all of the great players. When I go to tour events, my favorite place to be is on the range watching the players go through their warm-up routines. This time I was able to see most all of the top players including the eventual winner Jason Day. Not only did he play the best golf of the week but I believe he has the best preshot routine in the game. If you have a chance to watch him play in the next few weeks, study his routine and apply some of it to your game. Many of my golf lessons are about much more than how to swing a club. Learning golf and enjoying the game more requires some time, motivation, purpose, knowledge, and also relevant feedback. Having these factors will give you your best opportunity to improve. Within these factors is a major component to building a repeating swing and more consistent golf game: a preshot routine. I never teach an exact pre-shot routine to a player but rather explain different routines that great players use and then help build a specific routine for the player I’m coaching.

A pre-shot routine is often reflective of one’s personality. Fred Couples, for example, moves through his routine quite nonchalantly and unhurried; he flows right along. Keegan Bradley, on the other hand, is fidgety, fast and bouncy. Both are very successful at what they do even though they are very different. What is the same about both players is that their routine is almost always the same. Jason Day’s pre-shot routine is a work of art. He uses imagery, visualization and breathing techniques to give himself the best opportunity to be successful. Take a few minutes the next time you are at the practice range and build a pre-shot routine. Try standing behind the ball, take a deep breath, visualize your shot, and slowly move in to the ball. At that point, try taking your grip, aiming the club face, taking your stance and posture, and then hitting a beautiful shot. Then start the entire process over again. It is much more worthwhile to hit half as many balls going through your routine than it is to hit twice as many balls one after another. Try this and you will improve your score and enjoyment of the game.

Best In State Rass takes top honors at state fiddle competition by ALYSSA SKIBA alyssa.skiba@ppulse.com
W
hen Hana Rass went down to Milwaukee, she was looking for a gold to win. And on Aug. 8, the 23-year-old Little Sturgeon resident did just that, taking home the honor of Grand Champion Fiddler at the 2015 Wisconsin State Fair. It is perhaps the highest point in a musical career that goes back 16 years to when Rass, daughter of Dan and Teri Rass, decided that she would follow in the musical footsteps of her father and learn a stringed instrument. From the beginning, she has forged her own path. Classical lessons opened her in-
troduction to the fiddle but when boredom set in two months into her lessons, rather than ditch the instrument as is common at a young age, she decided to move into a genre she had adored her entire life – bluegrass. For the next decade, her dad (a longtime country musician in the county) taught her how to play the stringed instrument. During that time, she also began playing with her family’s band, Fairland Bluegrass Band (made up of Dan Rass on mandolin/vocals; Teri Rass on bass/vocals; Calyn Saindon on banjo/vocals; Neil Saindon on guitar/vocals; and Hana on fiddle/vocals) and set her sights on becoming a professional musician. “I absolutely love the music,” Rass said. “I eat, breathe and sleep it. It’s what I do; I enjoy it, I love it, I feel like I have a passion for it. I’m very blessed to have been given this talent and a big part of it is I grew up going to these bluegrass festivals.

to their merchandise table; you can walk up to them, you can shake their hand, you can talk to them. They are very personable, very friendly, and it makes you feel like family. That’s what I like about that genre of music.” In June 2010, her father’s band opened for Nashville-based bluegrass unit Mountain Heart during a performance at Door Community Auditorium in Fish Creek and Rass was able to connect with fiddler Jim Van Cleef. A few months later, Van Cleef became her online fiddle instructor. “He is the current fiddle player for Josh Turner, and I take online Skype lessons from him,” she explained. Two years ago, Rass decided the best way to achieve her dream of becoming a professional musician was to get her name out there. She began competing in fiddle contests, taking first place against a dozen players of all ages at her very first competition, the East Troy Bluegrass Festival. Rass has taken part in a number throughout the Midwest since then, almost always placing within the top three, including a second place finish at last year’s State Fair contest. Rass explained that competing fiddlers are judged on technique, intonation, tempo and the ability to play songs true to form: ho-downs should be danceable and waltzes should be smooth and progressive. In this year’s Open Division, she performed the “Gardenia Waltz” and “Calgary Polka.” With the difficulty of the waltz she chose, she was not expecting to take the top spot. “The entire time I’m pretty much playing harmony to myself,” she explained. “It’s a very hard song and it’s one of those things where if you don’t play the right note, everyone is going to hear it because you’re playing two strings at once. “It was really exciting and I definitely did not expect it,” she said of the win. “There was a lot of really good competition and I was convinced that somebody else would take it, so it was a big surprise and I’m very happy.” From here, Rass will head to the Minnesota State Fiddle Contest on Aug. 29 – 30 and to East Troy in September.

MUSIC NOTES
Harpeth Rising Harpeth Rising is next to take the stage at Jeanne Kuhns’ Woodwalk Concert Series on Aug. 21 at 7 pm. Harpeth Rising chose to name themselves after a river because water is both dynamic and powerful. These words also describe the music created by the three women – Jordana Greenberg (violin, vocals), Rebecca Reed-Lunn (banjo, vocals) and Maria Di Meglio (cello, vocals). Unapologetic genre-benders, they fuse folk, “newgrass,” rock and classical into a sound that is organically unique. Hallmarks of their music include expansive three-part harmonies, consummate musicianship and a deft, yet soulful lyrical perspective. Harpeth Rising’s roots run deep – from their varied ancestry across Eastern Europe to the musical hotbed of the Mid-South they now call home, they weave together ancient and modern ideas, creating a sound that is both familiar and impossible to categorize. Despite the presence of only three string instruments on stage, Harpeth Rising produces a profusion of sound generally created by a much larger ensemble. Di Meglio transitions fluidly between providing the bass line and taking the melodic lead, while Reed-Lunn’s highly original style of claw hammer banjo – learned mainly by watching YouTube – is both surprisingly lyrical and intensely driving. Greenberg takes on the role of concert violinist and accompanist with equal facility, and ensures that a lead guitar is never missed. Woodwalk Concert Series shows start at 7 pm. Tickets are $20 cash or check, at the door. Call 920.868.2912 or 920.495.2928 for ticket reservations. This is general seating, so come as early as 5:30 pm to claim a favorite seat. Beer, soda, coffee and ice cream treats will be available for sale. Woodwalk Gallery is located at 6746 County G, one mile off Highway 42 in Egg Harbor. Woodwalk Gallery is located at 6746 County G, one mile off Hwy 42. Call 920.868.02912 or 920.495.2928 for reservations. Lost Moth Gallery is excited to welcome two musicians to the gallery concert series on Aug. 22 at 7 pm.

His music encompasses the roots of blues and soul with a modern flare to it. Joe G is a singer/songwriter who artfully blends elements of root, Americana and folk with a pop sensibility. “My goal is to create music that is entertaining but also moving on an emotional and spiritual level.” Lost Moth enjoys introducing newly discovered artists to the Door County music scene. There will be treats, wine and beer, or BYO wine or beer. Doors open at 6 pm and the show begins at 7 pm. Tickets are $10 dollars, cash or check. Call 920.495.2928 for reservations.

Inside An Old Root Cellar by ABIGAIL EDMONDS
O
n the August afternoon I visited the Erskine Root Cellar, the interior temperature hovered just above 60 degrees. Outside, it was approaching 80. An observant person driving through the intersection of County Road V and Highway 57 in Jacksonport might notice a little cedar-shake roof protruding from the soil. I did not. I would have driven past it if not for a large wooden sign on the corner, which said Erskine Rest Area. Lincoln and Caroline Erskine built the root cellar sometime in the early 1880s, after purchasing a nearby house. The house, previously owned by Lincoln’s brother Royal, had been used as a saloon. Caroline and Lincoln, who were against drinking, had the building converted into a boarding house and post office. Eventually, the cellar fell into disrepair. The Jacksonport Historical Society restored it in 2003, replacing the cedar shake, many of the wooden boards and the door, and repairing the foundation.
Inside the narrow entryway are several steps down into the cellar proper, which has a shelving area for cans and a wooden stall for vegetables, filled by the Jacksonport Historical Society with potpourri for an enhanced visitor experience. This visitor’s first experience was good and very informative. It is a primitive walkin fridge; with a stone foundation, and cedar shake roof, and a heavy wooden door that is only opened twice a year, for Cherry Fest and Maifest. The cellar provided a fine reminder to me not to quickly dismiss something as unremarkable and mundane the first time you drive by it. It is not particularity impressive, but in the 1880s, functioned well. The walls, insulated by soil, and roof, insulated by newspaper, kept the cellar cool, and protected the vegetables stored inside from frost. Like all good refrigerators, the cellar is cold and dark. Its only purpose is preservation. My mistake, on my first visit to the cellar, was that I failed to recognize that this principle applied to the entire building, including the roof.
Part of what preserves the old refrigerator, which preserves the vegetables, is Marie Erskine Hein, the granddaughter of Lincoln and Caroline who grew up playing around the cellar. She shared some rambunctious childhood memories with the Jacksonport Historical Society: “My brothers played ‘cops and robbers’ around the root cellar (they were not allowed in it). Many were the times we were scolded and warned not to climb on the root cellar, but most of that went unheeded. If we took a good run we could get right up to the top of the roof and stay on our feet. Then we would sit and slide down. The cellar was covered with a roofing material that looked like tarpaper with very small pebbles glued on. There were no jeans or slacks for girls. We wore dresses with bloomers to match. Twice down the roof we were sliding on bare skin. Many the spankings I got for wearing holes in my bloomers!” For more information visit jacksonporthistoricalsociety.org.
Master taxidermist Mike Orthober of Egg Harbor will be at the Door County Historical Museum most of the day on Aug. 22 mounting a specimen for the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seasons of Lifeâ&#x20AC;? display.

Bargains Unlimited Fall Style Show Always in Season - Bargains Unlimited On the evening of Oct. 8, 1871 the worst recorded forest fire in North American history raged through Northeastern Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, destroying millions of dollars of property, timberland, and between 1,200 and 2,400 lives. Beginning in Peshtigo, meteorologists speculate prolonged widespread drought fueled the fire and incredibly strong winds caused the fire to spread across Green Bay to Door County. Barb Chisholm will give an overview of the fire that enveloped both sides of the Bay and includes the history of the village of Williamsonville (Tornado), and the devastation at that site and other parts of the county. In an engaging manner, Chisholm steps back in time and gives a first-person interpretation of her greatgrandparents and how they survived during and after the fire. The program will be held on Aug. 23 at 2 pm in the Collins Center, at 2041 Michigan Street in Sturgeon Bay. This program does not have an admission fee, but a donation is appreciated. For more information, call 920.421.2332 or email Director. DCHistoricalSociety@gmail.com.

From Sept. 13 – 18, Lawrence University’s Björklunden is offering the seminar “Heretics and Heroes” with Dan Taylor. Thomas Cahill’s Heretics and Heroes: How Renaissance Artists and Reformation Priests Created Our World is another compelling work of history that reads like a novel, and another magnificently illustrated volume in his highly acclaimed Hinges of History series. When analyzing well-known and readily recognizable Renaissance masterpieces and Reformation portraits, Cahill’s eye for artistic expression yields many “I-didn’t-notice-that-before” moments, and the 32 pages of full-color paintings, designs, and sculptures that visually inform the coming of the Reformation are perfect complements to the author’s colorful prose. As his readers know, Cahill has a knack for characterizing historical figures with uncanny accuracy and rhetorical flourish. It is sometimes difficult to decide who is heroic and who is heretical at any given moment, but bibliophiles can rejoice at the pivotal role played by the printing press. Art, literature and theology, as well as history, all feature prominently in this thought-provoking account of a crucially formative stage in Western civilization. It goes without saying that the seminar discussions will necessarily be wide-ranging and lively. Taylor is the Hiram A. Jones Professor Emeritus of Classics at Lawrence University. He is the author of three books and dozens of articles. Seminar classes are held at Björklunden’s lodge, just south of Baileys Harbor, and meet weekday mornings and some evenings. Each seminar includes meals prepared by Björklunden’s resident chef. For complete course descriptions, fees and registration dates call 920.839.2216, email samantha.a.szynskie@ lawrence.edu or visit lawrence.edu/s/bjorklunden/ bjorkseminars. “Moving into Stillness” is the theme for an all-levels yoga workshop at the Hotel Washington’s Studio, Sept. 11 – 13. Leading the event are Rocky Delaplaine and Suzanne Stevens, who have worked together for more than 20 years in the Women’s Collaborative Leadership Community. “In our all-too-busy lives, many of us are looking for ways to slow down and be more peaceful inside. Yoga gives us the means. Its very purpose is to quiet the mind. In this workshop we’ll stretch muscles that are tight, strengthen muscles that are weak, learn to take a slow, deep, steady breath, and relax deeply,” Stevens said. In addition to yoga, workshop participants will pay attention to their dreams, learn about the cycles of the moon, write for the joy of discovery, and immerse themselves in the elemental life of Washington Island. “This workshop is designed for all experiences and abilities, and each student will leave with an

CULTURE CLUB: PENINSULA PLAYERS THEATRE
80 Seasons of Poignant Plays and Playwrights Outside Mullingar by John Patrick Shanley opened Aug. 19 by AUDRA BAAKARI BOYLE
P
eninsula Players celebrated the 80th anniversary of its first performance in July. Co-founder Richard Fisher, also a playwright, set the precedent for artistic directors to follow when selecting the lineup of works: a mix of thrills, laughs, suspense as well as classic plays and the première of new works. To this day this mix delights audiences. On Aug. 19, the Players opened the Wisconsin première of John Patrick Shanley’s new
work, a quirky romantic comedy, Outside Mullingar. Early in his writing career Shanley was determined to not be labeled an Irish-American writer. “I wanted to write about everybody,” he said in the New York Times. “And for the next 30 years I did.”

Shanley is a prolific writer, with more than 25 plays and screenplays in his body of work. He wrote the lyrics to the opera based on his Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Doubt: A Parable. His screenplay Moonstruck earned three Academy Awards, including Best Screenplay and a Best Actress Oscar for Cher. Shanley has written about volcanoes and the Congo, but he never ventured into his Irish heritage until he took a special trip with his father to the homestead in Ireland. Shanley was raised in an Irish-Italian working class sector of The Bronx. His father was born on a farm in the Irish Midlands where he raised sheep and cattle with his brothers. “His brothers and sisters had brogues and my father used to play Irish music on the accordion while the family danced,” Shanley said in an interview with SGN of Seattle. “I was inundated with this, but never wanted to write about that. I think people want to escape from the childhoods they’ve known and that prevents them returning to it in joyous ways.” In 1993 his father, who immigrated to the United States when he was 24, was too old to travel alone and asked his son to take him to the family farm outside the village of Killucan, near the town of Mullingar, in County Westmeath. Shanley was 42 when he took his elderly father home and this visit awakened his Irishness. “When I sat with my father in that farm kitchen, the one that he had grown up in, and listened to my Irish family talk, I recognized that this was my Atlantis, the lost and beautiful world of my poet’s heart,” Shanley told the New York Times. “There was no way to write about the farm, yet I had to write about it. I listened to the amazing language these folks were speaking as if it were normal conversation, and I knew this was my territory. But it was new to me. It was a time to listen, not to write.” He listened for about 20 years, until his 60th birthday, a milestone that made an impact on Shanley. His parents were dead; his own hair was gray. “I was miserable, dead, barren and solitary,” he continued in the New York Times. He moved to an apartment with a view. “It was just me and the river and the sun and time. A year went by. One quiet day, I sat down without a thought in my head and wrote a play about the farm.” Outside Mullingar is the first work in which he pays homage to his Irish heritage. Shanley recalled listening to his relations
FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS • Open Daily 7838 Hwy. 42 • Egg Harbor, WI • 868-2233 • www.macreadybreadcompany.com
converse around the kitchen table with vigor, emphasis and conviction in the introduction to his script for Outside Mullingar. “(Aunt) Mary’s declarations came out at the rate of water gushing from a fire hose,” he said. It was a gloomy and dark day, yet no lights were on. When Shanley inquired if there was a power failure he “set off a series of denunciations and exhortations about the light switch, which was finally thrown by my cousin Anthony as if he were setting fire to the national treasury or electrocuting the only woman he had ever loved.” The strong bonds between his family members left a lasting impact on Shanley. He was influenced by their loyalty to and love for one another. “I wanted to put on stage something I hadn’t seen” Shanley told The Seattle Times. “Sometimes a son and a father, a mother and a daughter, just love each other, without equivocation, without apology.” The love of family is weaved into the script. Outside Mullingar features two neighboring Irish families who bicker in their farmhouse kitchens. Shanley’s creativity and his own awareness of life’s fleeting opportunities altered and sharpened the family stories of his Aunt Mary, Uncle Tony and cousin Anthony. Outside Mullingar’s Anthony is in his 40s and comfortable in his eccentric nature. He has stayed on the farm with his father, Tony. Rosemary, his slightly younger neighbor, lives with her mother, Aoife. Keeping them apart is a dispute over a wee patch of land and the mysterious ways of the heart. Smitten with Anthony since childhood, Rosemary is passionate and determined to not let an American relation inherit the farm over Anthony, nor to let love pass her by. Outside Mullingar opened on Broadway for a limited run Jan. 3, 2014 and marked the Broadway debut of Debra Messing and also featured Brian F. O’Byrne. The play earned Shanley a nomination for a Tony Award for Best Play. Outside Mullingar is on stage at Peninsula Players from Aug. 19 through Sept. 6. For more information on Outside Mullingar or tickets, phone the Box Office at 920.868.3287 or visit peninsulaplayers. com.

Stage Door Theatre Co. presents Sylvia at Third Avenue Playhouse, with opening night benefit on Aug. 27 at 7:30 pm for the Door County Humane Society. Katherine Duffy Sylvia, written by A.R. Gurney and directed by Robert Boles, is about husband and wife, Greg and Kate, and a homeless dog named Sylvia. Greg and Kate are city-dwellers who are adjusting to life after children. Kate’s career as an academic is taking off, while Greg is being transferred to ever more meaningless and unsatisfying jobs. On a walk in the park, Greg finds a homeless dog with a tag indicating her name is Alan Kopischke Sylvia. He brings her home, fleas and all. Sylvia immediately establishes herself as Greg’s constant companion. She does what pets do: she’s loves him unconditionally. Soon Greg is avoiding work so he can bask in her delightful company. Kate recognizes a rival for Greg’s affections and sees a serious threat to her marriage. She tries to have Greg give Sylvia up. Soon Greg Ryan Patrick Shaw must choose between wife and dog. The cast includes Katherine Duffy, Alan Kopischke, Ryan Patrick Shaw and Jacque Troy. Performances are scheduled for Aug. 27 – Sept. 12, beginning at 7:30 pm Wednesday through Saturday and 2 pm on Sunday. A pay-whatyou-can preview is set for Aug. 26 at 7:30 pm, and a Tuesday evening performance will be held Sept. 8 at Jacque Troy

{4/5 beer cheers}
The first time I ever heard the expression “lawnmower beer” was during an interview with Fritz Maytag of Anchor Brewing. I forget exactly when we talked – let’s just say many beers ago – but I do recall that Anchor was just releasing a summer lawnmower beer. I forget the name of the beer and I didn’t see it on the Anchor website, but I was reminded of that conversation with Fritz when I opened the fridge and my eyes fell upon a six-pack of Anchor Summer Wheat. Was that the beer we talked about those many beers ago? I can’t say no for certain, but I really don’t think so. I was surprised to find an Anchor Wheat, and to my mind that means I had never seen it before, even though the brewery website claims it has been produced since 1984. I am certain the lawnmower beer Fritz and I talked about was something else, which also leads me to believe if I don’t recall it, maybe it wasn’t so hot?
Sorry I never heard of Anchor Summer Wheat before this. This is not your typical wimpy American wheat. It is big, bright, spicy and bold, perfect for the cup holder on your rotary push mower.

Papazian’s landmark homebrew book. I distinctly remember using way more cherries than Charlie called for. It was my first time cherry picking. I went to southern Fond du Lac County to do the picking, at a hilly orchard in a pretty agricultural area. I don’t remember how many pounds Charlie’s recipe called for, and I don’t know where my copy of the book is to look it up. Suffice to say that I added a lot of cherries to this stout. Had to. In my cherry-picking zeal, I had picked 60-some pounds of cherries. I think I followed the cherry stout with a cherry wheat, and then a cherry lager. That was the summer I turned the household refrigerator into a lagering cave. Have I told you this story before? If I have, blame the cherries. That’s what they do to you. Cherry Stout from Atwater Brewery of Detroit has a nice cheery cherry flavor infused deep within the stoutness of the base beer, which is a chocolatey stout. Good stuff. Nice mix of flavors – the tart cherries bouncing around inside the darkness. ***

Because I definitely remember early encounters with Anchor Steam and Anchor Porter. I particularly remember the years on Maui in the mid to late 1980s when we would drive to the other side of the island from where we lived to go to Wiki Wiki Pizza, a shoreside pizza place that served Anchor Steam on tap. I remember at the time thinking $8 pitchers were outrageous, but still worth the travel and cost in a world of bland beers.

WINE : 30 Food and Wine Pairing by KARL BRADLEY
T
here are several main characteristics of wine and food that are instrumental in pairing food with wine: Acidity This is the most important characteristic in pairing food and wine • Acidity can cut richness, saltiness, oily foods, fatty foods and mildly spicy foods • Acidic wines pair great with tart foods • Brings out the integrity in good, simple ingredients
Photo: Photo domain
Sweetness Can vary from dessert wines to off dry to semi-sweet to dry • Sweet wines can be a great counterpart to moderate levels of heat • Compliments slight sweetness in foods • Can be an effective contrast to salt • Takes the edge off of tart foods
• Oaky wines need specific foods to show at their best (match the flavors in the wine such as toast, char, smoke and caramel with certain cooking techniques) • Lightly oaked and un-oaked wines are the easiest to pair food with • Oak adds smoothness and roundness to the texture of wine
Tannin Perceived as bitterness or a gritty character • Serve bitter foods with tannic wines • Counter-balance tannin with fat and protein • Tannin usually doesn’t work well with fish Oak Creates characteristics in wine that grapes alone can’t provide • Oak is exaggerated by food
Chief Oshkosh Native American Arts Open 10am - 5pm
Here are some guidelines of food and wine pairing: Chardonnay • Oak aged Chardonnay works well with dishes that have rich textures and flavors • Pairs nicely with mild and sweet shellfish • Works well with nuts, especially toasted nuts Sauvignon Blanc • Will pair with any foods with fresh herbs • Is a good accompaniment with a vinaigrette, whether is be a dressing or a food marinated in a vinaigrette • The high level of acidity and lower alcohol balances hot and spicy dishes Riesling • Goes well with goose, duck and other rich, gamey birds • Works as a counterbalance to rich, salty meats • Pairs nicely with many exotic and flavorful spices, such as curry, cardamom, cinnamon, clove, mace, cumin, etc.
Pinot Noir • Has incredible flexibility with many different ingredients and preparations • Goes with foods that are smoked, grilled or lightly charred Sangiovese • A great balance to tomato based sauces • Will pair with herbal components like basil in a Caprese salad or fresh chopped thyme or sage in a dish.

Dear Mary Pat, Our community sponsors weekly live music in a park during the summer. The musicians are always talented and very professional. Unfortunately, many children seem to be unsupervised and run back and forth in packs right in front of the stage. It’s not only disrespectful to the performers, but also very distracting and irritating to the audience. The parents seem not to notice or care what their children are doing. I know children need to have fun, but playing and running wildly in front of the stage and performers is not acceptable. Signed, Music Lover Sturgeon Bay, Wis. Dear Music Lover, This is unfortunate. I see a lot of parents who are completely checked out and seem not to remember that they are responsible for their children’s behavior in public. There is a big difference between a playground and a musical performance. It might simply be a case of children being too young to appreciate what they are seeing and they are bored and restless. Since this seems not to be an isolated occurrence, you might want to suggest to the organizer (whether by email or in person) that everyone might benefit from a brief announcement at the beginning of the concert to please limit children running around. I’m sure that the majority of the concertgoers would appreciate this greatly as would the performers themselves. And maybe some of those parents are reading right now and have received the message loud and clear. Good luck, Mary Pat Miss Pat was educated at the Finnish Finishing School for Fine Ladies. Eloquent in edifying etiquette, she is fluent in seven languages including the language of love. Mary Pat has generously extended her counsel to you and will answer any and all inquiries. Email Mary Pat at manners@ppulse.com.
