Heavy rains bring flooding to Front Royal area June 1-3

By Richard E. Mabie Fire Chief/Emergency Manager June 4, 2018 Flooding Storm June 1-3, 2018 - As most of you are aware, Warren County has been experiencing a sizable amount of rain over the last week, especially this weekend. This past weekend, we experienced several inches of

rain from Friday, through Sunday evening. With the ground already saturated, much of the heavy rain was run off into already full creeks, streams and low lying areas. During this new rain storm on Sunday morning, rapid flash flooding began to be experienced flooding roadways and cutting off traffic routes along Happy Creek

Road, John Marshal Highway and Oregon Hollow Rd in Linden and Howellsville Road.

We experienced three vehicles in flood waters with rescues by passersby. Boats 6 and 3 rescued a citizen on Howellsville Rd. Boat 6 also made a water rescue in Clarke, off of Howellsville Road.

Boats 14 and 3 rescued and re-

moved eleven trailer occupants at North Fork Campground. These people who decided to stay out the storm in their trailers until the river flooded, trapping them in their trailers and then had to be rescued by Fire and Rescue boats.

Today, we sent a boat to search for and recover a dog that drowned in the owners car. We recorded 1214 boat rescues this weekend. We also had a couple of river rescue calls in Frederick County.

Above roads are still closed and I’m sure there will be damages that we cannot see because of the water still covering the roads. The

Morgan’s Ford LWB closed early yesterday and remains closed today. Again, roads will probably remained closed until VDOT can clean up debris and check for road surface damage.

Station 6 was trapped from both sides; only way out was over the mountain to Linden. I held shift over so they could staff the engine and ambulance and a boat operator. Did same thing with Station 1 with off duty shift, mainly to keep boat operator available. Will inspect closed roads and bridges this evening; probably return to normal sometime tomorrow.

Local real estate agent returns to her origins Page 4 • Warren/Frederick County Report • Mid June, 2018

By Carol Ballard Warren/Frederick County Report

Wanda Himes has been selling real estate in Front Royal for 29 years, starting out with Vaughan, Gibbs and Bennett Realty for 15 years at 410 South Royal Ave. Now, after 14 years at another company, Hines is returning to the original building, but with her own new business and new title as partner and managing broker with JKB Homes.

“I made a U-turn. I’ve always dreamed of having my own real estate company and now it’s becoming a reality,” she said.

When she started, she was working there even before she was selling properties.

“I answered phones, listened, and watched until I got my license,” she said.

Donald Vaughan was semi-retired when Himes began her career there, and when the business took on Jim Gibbs and Geise Bennett, he still came into the office from time to time and she got to work with him and his wife Frances, who was office manager.

Himes says she has good memories of those early days and observed how it’s interesting that it all began there, and

that she’s returned to start as managing broker back in the same building all these years later.

She described their new accommodations and a bit of the building’s history.

“The building has served for 40 years but hasn’t been in active use for the last 10 years. Mrs. Vaughan had it on the market and a company called Maverick LLC bought it, renovated it, and gave it a complete makeover,” she said.

Himes had planned to use the original sign, but after it was vandalized, she had some trouble getting permission from the Town of Front Royal. She finally got approval to put it up again, so the sign will also be a part of the full return cycle.

Patrice Muya is Himes’ partner in her new venture. She said she met him a few years ago and started the conversation about opening an office in Front Royal, and now it’s a reality.

When asked if they will be constructing new homes, she said they won’t be doing that, but will be involved in all other aspects of the real estate business, like buying, selling and renting.

“Specializing in real estate – that’s our business,” she said.

Himes says the current real estate market is booming and area prices are escalating, as well as the interest rates.

“It was incredible last year,” she said.

But this means that many folks, local or otherwise, are having to look at surrounding counties if they want to work within a lower price range.

“Anyone in our area is being forced to look in those counties for affordability.

Interest rates are on the rise,” she said.

She said they’re seeing buyers who were on the fence, but affordability is decreasing buying power, as inventory is low in Northern Virginia, and that’s bumping the prices up.

Inventory is low here in our area too, and buyers don’t seem to care that it’s a sellers’ market – that they’re holding off for a better price and sticking to their guns.

Buyers are seeing that but are still getting multiple prices on properties and still looking.

“Until we get more inventory, it is a sellers’ market,” she said, and added, “Last year and this year, are the two best years since the 2005 market crash.”

Himes went on to say that there are more land sales and new construction going on, which is helping the market, but the price point is still averaging at $250,000-275,000. Homes are increasing in value, and that’s good news for sellers, but making it difficult for buyers.

“Warren County natives are finding it hard to find affordable properties here,” she said.

This is a trend that Himes has seen before, she said, with people going to areas with lower prices like Shenandoah or Page Counties even though they may want to stay local.

But she added that, “In my field, in 29 years, I’m going to accommodate anyone who wants to buy or sell, and to give good service to all citizens out there, regardless of their buying power.”

Another consequence of a low inventory of homes is that there is a scarcity of rentals.

She described the frustrations of folks looking for affordable places to rent.

“In the multiple listings, there are lots of rentals, but the $1,000 a month range or more, is not affordable for many folks in this area,’ she said.

There are many cases where changing living situations require new solutions.

For example, a young adult is still living with parents who want to downsize and sell, and he or she needs to find a new place to live, but when they look for a rental, it’s difficult to find something in their price range.

Seniors, alone or as a couple, may also have uncertain living arrangements.

They could be looking for smaller, more manageable places, without having to depend on family or their children, or don’t want to go to assisted living or nursing homes. They often find themselves in lower rent situations.

There are apartment complexes based on income that have handicapped accessible facilities available, but are not specifically designed for seniors. She said she would like to see affordable

housing for both the elderly and young folks moving out of their family homes.

But she does have contacts among owners of investment properties who she works with to connect with hopeful renters.

“Sometimes it’s tough, but if I put the word out, something comes around,” she said, and added that, “sometimes you just have to be patient.”

But, as far as going ahead with creation of a new business, she said she’s feeling very positive about it given the present strong market.

“Absolutely! I’m very happy about how things are progressing,” she said.

She said that real estate is her life.

“I love what I do, to make new friendships and contacts, to help people. It’s not just a business transaction. I like to build relationships, and like helping people moving here from different

states with the biggest investment in their life and to learn their way around.

I would like to be around for another 29 years!” she said.

Her motto in real estate is the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you,” she quoted.

Himes has been in the Front Royal area for 30 years, and she has two grown children and six grandchildren, and says her family is very supportive of her and her business.

R-MA class of 2018 encouraged to live by their gratitude

Valedictorian Kathleen Fedzer and Salutatorian Ryan Latham show off their hats, decorated with the logos and names of the colleges to which they will matriculate in the fall.

At the end of the Final Parade, the Class of 2018 was dismissed from formation for the last time, signifying their graduation from the Air Force Junior ROTC program at R-MA. The cadets celebrated with their traditional hat toss.

By Celeste M. Brooks R-MA Director of Communications Randolph-Macon Academy’s Class of 2018 came into their graduation ceremony in Melton Memorial Gymnasium on Saturday, May 26, 2018, already filled with a sense of accomplishment. Each of the 68 seniors had earned at least one college acceptance, resulting in a total of 230 college acceptances to 139 different colleges and universities. Collectively, the seniors were offered more than $6.2 million in college scholarships. In addition, the seven Falcon Scholars of 2018 had all earned appointments to the U.S. Air Force Academy.

While the graduates were clearly prepared for college and ready to move forward, they enjoyed many moments to reminisce throughout the three days of ceremonies and celebrations during Senior Week. Throughout those events, the departing seniors acknowledged that they gained far more from R-MA than the subjects on which they had been educated and tested.

During Class Night on May 24th, salutatorian Ryan Latham recalled a band trip to Orlando during which the hotel lost power. The band members gathered in the hallway and played games, laughed and told jokes. “That’s one of the most important things I have learned,” he said. “It doesn’t take Snapchat, Facebook, Instagram, or any social media to make friendships; real connection comes through interactions, not distractions. It comes from difficulty and hardship that bring people together, but also the fun and laughter had in remembering those times and the fun of being with one another.”

Valedictorian Kathleen Fedzer and Randolph-Macon College President Robert R. Lindgren spoke during graduation on Saturday, May 26th, and while they had not collaborated, there

were a few common themes in their speeches.

Fedzer slightly paraphrased Abraham Lincoln, saying, “The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what we did here.” And the first thing she did in her speech was thank her family, then her teachers and her classmates, at the same time reminding everyone, “It’s not what we say, but what we do that counts.”

Moments later, Lindgren reinforced Fedzer’s comments with his own quote from John F. Kennedy, “As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.”

“I call that ‘living by your gratitude,” Lindgren said. “And I trust that part of your living by your gratitude—now that you have reached this important

stage—is that you will always focus on being grateful. You see, expressing gratitude regularly is, quite simply, a powerful way to keep yourselves mentally and emotionally balanced throughout your lives.”

Lindgren also quoted Mark Twain: “The two most important days of your life are the day you are born, and the day you learn why.”

“Discovering the “why” of our lives, indeed, our very purpose in life, defines us,” he told the graduates, “and ultimately gives our lives meaning and

value and joy. And, most especially, it is the secret to how and why we keep striving to get better.

“One of the benefits of attending a school like Randolph-Macon Academy is that you have been at a special place that understands the power of purpose, and in turn, encourages you to find yours. This discovery does not happen in a day, but over months and years and even decades. It is sparked by moments of inspiration and opportunities for exploration, many that you have been given here at Randolph-Ma-

con Academy, encouraged to find your inner ‘Power of Rise.’”

Fedzer spoke of “The Power of Rise” in her speech as well, albeit in different terms. “If you really work at something, you can achieve it,” she told her classmates. “Now, naturally this isn’t a guarantee. Sometimes, you’ll pour your heart into something and it still won’t work the way you want it to. This is a simple fact of life, but I think it’s a learning experience. The most important things one can take away from failure is how to be better the next time.”

Fedzer concluded her speech by challenging her classmates. “I know that the future holds many more triumphs as well as defeats, successes as well as disasters, and a whole menagerie of individuals to meet along the way. Whenever you feel discouraged, just remember all the things you’ve been through already. You’re stronger than you think, tougher than you know, and capable of more than you can imagine. So just keep moving forward, and keep your chin up. Remember, it’s not what we say, but what we do, that counts, so do something phenomenal.”

As he closed his speech, Lindgren again echoed Fedzer in the challenge to “do,” wrapped in the emphasis of gratitude. “I pray that you all go forward today knowing you have the Power of Rise, and with the resolution to live your gratitude. Gratitude for the loving support of your family and friends, gratitude for the excellent education you have receive here at Randolph-Macon Academy, and gratitude for the glorious opportunities awaiting each and every one of you to find your

purpose, to do big things, and to make this world a better place as a result.”

Strasburg Film Festival set to begin in June Page 8 • Warren/Frederick County Report • Mid June, 2018

Local promoters aim to combine artistic and community events

The movie “Icky,” which is part of the Seasonal Film Series’ Clementine Vintage event to be held on July 25th in Strasburg, was crafted by Iranian illustrator Parastoo Cardgar. The film is about a world of people with Rubik’s cube heads, where there is a kid who is different from the others.

By Carol Ballard Warren/Frederick County Report Daniel Feldbusch and his wife Stefany have organized a Seasonal Film Series, to be held in Strasburg and surrounding towns in June and continuing through November to provide entertainment for people looking for new and interesting places to go.

The couple moved to Strasburg

from the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area a few years ago, because when they used to travel through Virginia to various other states, they always felt like it was home.

“It’s worked out well,” Daniel said.

After living in Strasburg and enjoying the artistry of the outdoor murals and the history of the town as a pottery center, as well as the artist community, they started to think about

He said they have two elementary school-age daughters and thought they could do something to raise awareness of school theatre programs.

They decided to create film events, with any profits, after purchasing an outdoor screen and audio equipment, eventually going toward support of theatre programs in the local schools.

He said theatre programs are valuable because they combine several art forms, including writing, music, dance, graphics and potentially film making.

Feldbusch said he’s done event planning for the clients of companies he worked with and he wanted to use that experience to help bring the local community together.

“Bringing a new concept into the area takes time, and one of the benefits I didn’t expect, was to see the enthusiasm of people and the community for this,” he said.

One of the reasons for getting involved in the artistic aspect of community is to be an example for his kids so they can see their parents being a part of the community-to contribute to their growth as well.

This summer, events will be held in several different business venues and they will hold events in the underconstruction Strasburg Park in September. (See events schedule below) “I think the kids would like the outdoor movies,” he said.

So far, they’ve been promoting the film festivals through their website and social media and, have gotten a good response.

“We think people will be enthusiastic when they see films from all over the world and see how people go about writing stories. Films are often a way to get people together, to talk about them, get together and maybe move on to something else,” he said.

They advertised on a website called film freeway which is a site used by film festival promoters to see films from independent film makers. They’ve received 1,900 submissions from film-

makers from all over the world.

“We’ve been amazed to see what we’ve received so far for our Seasonal Film Series, but the hard part is getting through all the films to find good ones people will enjoy,” he observed.

To see the procedure for submitting films for consideration to be shown in the festivals, visit: https://filmfreeway. com/StrasburgFilmFestival.

He said they are also curious about which countries’ movies will stand out more than others and said that a lot of the movies are from Iran.

“It has changed my point of view of filmmakers and how they differ from one country to the next,” he said.

Ideas for future events include showing special interest films. One night, for example, may have only Hitchcock films.

“Next year, we look forward to showing family-friendly films in the park. We’d like to get people outside and enjoy each other’s company.” he said.

So far this year, they’ve put on a Valentine’s Day/Loving Movies Game Night, and to honor St. Patrick’s Day-a night of Irish films.

“The key thing for us, is if there’s anyone out there who has an interest in movies and also to see the area grow in an artistic fashion, we’re always interested in seeing the community grow artistically and economically— it’s our business to see the area grow.

We like to help people and like to grow the economy,” he concluded.

They very much welcome more volunteers.

Front Royal, Warren County pause to remember fallen on Memorial Day

Major Robert McDougal U.S.M.C. introduces Lieutenant Colonel Michael Starling, Ret., key note speaker for the Memorial Day Ceremony on May 28 at the Gazebo in downtown Front Royal.

The Parade of Dogs took place in honor of War Dogs during the 2018 Front Royal Memorial Day Ceremony.

By Timothy Ratigan Warren/Frederick County Report On May 28, Front Royal and Warren County residents gathered at the Main Street Gazebo to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in U.S. wars on Memorial Day 2018.

Under overcast skies, the gathered crowd was first to be treated to the soft strains of patriotic music from the Skyline High School Jazz Band.

As in years past, Major Robert McDougal of the United States Marine Corps began the ceremony by introducing himself and his co-chair Malcolm Barr. After the opening prayer was given there was the singing of the National Anthem.

McDougal also took time to recognize and thank the local leaders of

Front Royal and Warren County for attending the ceremony. Among those leaders present at the ceremony were Warren County Supervisor Chairman Tony Carter; North River Supervisor Daniel Murray; Front Royal Mayor Hollis Tharpe; and Town Councilman Gary Gillispie.

McDougal gave a short address to those assembled, “Front Royal, with communities across this nation, has honored those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms since

the tradition of Decoration Day, which later became Memorial Day. Decoration Day began in 1868 in the aftermath of our Nation’s Civil War. Front Royal’s tribute has taken various forms over the decades.

“Today’s commemoration at the Gazebo is a result of Malcolm Barr’s recognition that a public commemoration of those lost in military service, to include a tribute of our Dogs of War, is not only right but necessary.

hundred in our own Warren County and Front Royal,” he began.

McDougal continued, “Today is also a day to reflect on those families who are forced to press forward without their dad, mom, brother or sister, son or daughter. This is what today is about: a chance in the ‘busy-ness’ of everyday life to remember that freedom is not free. Today we also pay tribute to the dogs of war. We recognize the tremendous role that military war dogs have played as loyal teammates in every conflict since World War II. “This is a fitting inclusion to Front Royal’s commemoration given that the United States War Dogs program

“As we all know, this freedom has been purchased at a tremendous human price. Today we gather to honor those who are no longer here to thank in person. To honor those who are no longer able to return home to enjoy this country, family and their friends.

Over this nation’s history the number of Americans who have made this ultimate sacrifice is numbered over one million. This number includes several

chose to serve and when we chose to serve sometimes chance chose us. Every deployed service member leaves behind someone who cares. Someone, when given one last hug before their warrior ships out, feels their pride clasped with the fear that this last hug might be the last hug. After that, every call from an unknown number, every unexpected knock at the door, reignites the constant worry in the daily lives of those on the home front, making them shudder at the prospect of what may be,” the Marine wrote.

Barr then said, “We, that is my wife and I, were fortunate enough that our son, a U.S. Air Force Staff Sergeant, returned safely from Iraq – but unfortunately left buddies behind. Major McDougal mourns the loss of friends lost in today’s wars.”

It was at this time the Skyline Jazz Band played a tribute to all those in the military: each of the Branches of Services’ individual songs.

Then the day’s keynote speaker, Lieutenant Colonel Michael Starling, Ret., a graduate of Randolph Macon Academy and the Virginia Military Institute, spoke. He served 20 years in active duty in the United States Marine Corps as an infantry officer and an intelligence officer.

“I am fortunate to have worn the fabric of our nation and I am glad that Major McDougal obliged me to wear my uniform today in honor of this occasion. I served with great Americans across all services throughout our nation. We had things in common: the lifestyle that we enjoyed being a part of; seeing [different] parts of the world; and certainly that opportunity to serve our great nation. With that comes a pledge in the form of a blank check that we write to the government for up to and including the lives of ourselves in the service of our nation. And invariably those checks get cashed,” McDougal said.

At the conclusion of remarks from the day’s keynote speaker, the parade of dogs was held followed by the closing prayer and Taps.

Jennifer Lewis seeks Democratic nomination for Sixth Congressional District

Stresses activism, grassroots organizing, willingness to listen to all sides

Jennifer Lewis participates in the Candidates Forum sponsored by the Warren County Democratic Committee on May 5 at the Warren County Community Center.

By Timothy Ratigan Warren & Frederick County Report In the continuing battle for the nomination for the Democratic candidate for the Sixth Congressional District seat being vacated by Congressman Bob Goodlatte, four candidates battle it out for the top spot. Candidate Jennifer Lewis is one of them. On the morning of May 5 Lewis joined three other candidates at the Warren County Community Center to participate in a candidates’ forum sponsored by the Warren County Democratic Committee.

Lewis grew up on a small family owned dairy farm with her parents and three sisters. She met her hus-

band in college, and they have settled in Waynesboro. Over the past decade she’s been active in the community, chairing the Waynesboro Parks and Recreation Board, the council on Youth, and serving as an elected member of the Headwaters Soil and Water Board. She has won awards for grassroots organizing in the Democratic Party and has served for the past three years as vice chair of the Waynesboro

Democratic Committee. Her platform consists of a wide range of issues that include supporting assault weapons bans with expanded background checks and the closure of loopholes.

She also supports a $15/hour federal minimum wage, clean energy jobs and moving towards 100 percent renewable energy by 2050. Lewis is also pushing for tuition free public colleges and universities and she is also pushing and campaigning for the legalization of Marijuana and hemp production.

“You might be wondering why I am running. I am running because I have been out on the front lines for all the fights we care about for the last 10 years. I’ve been very active in standing up for LGBTQI (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Questioning and/or Queer, or Intersex) rights and for reproductive rights. Also, for the protection for our forests and for our lands: I’ve been fighting against the abuse of eminent domain and I am a strong supporter of private property rights. I also believe in Medicare for all and we need to legalize hemp and Marijuana and need to focus on our public education. We need to fully fund our public education system and we can do that with the legalization of Marijuana as a way to funnel the money into our public-school system,” Lewis said in her opening statement.

She fielded the following questions from the Warren County Democratic Committee.

Q: What policies would you propose to encourage economic development and well-paying jobs in the Valley?

A: In the Sixth District, healthcare employs four times more than finance and insurance combined. So we need to be focusing on healthcare. As our population is aging we need more and more of those types of facilities which will in turn create jobs. Our solar industry employs more people than the

oil, gas and coal industry combined.

So we need to do something in renewable energies. That would be a great job starter. Supporting small farmersand I would support a farm bill that would allow farmers to directly sell to their consumers. I am a farmer’s daughter myself. We have seventy head of cattle. We are a small family farm, so I want to go to Washington to be the voice of our rural farmers.

Q: Both college and trade education is becoming more critical to achieving economic success. Cost for both keeps rising. What do you propose to do to help our young people gain access to affordable education and keep from saddling them with enormous debt?

A: So, in this country we only spend about six percent of our national budget on education – and that is a shame. We expect our teachers to pay out of pocket for school supplies. I don’t know how many of you have a job where you have to take your own supplies to work. I don’t have a job like that. So, we need to be supporting our public education all the way from pre-

K through community college and vocational opportunities and the way to do that is to legalize Marijuana. Colorado put $54,000,000 into the publicschool system just in Marijuana taxes.

So I would support an infrastructure bill that would include repairing our schools as well.

I live in Waynesboro and our high school is crumbling apart. It is toxic with asbestos and cracks in the walls and it makes kids not respect education. So we need good and safe schools as well. I support free community college. I have student loans myself and because I grew up on a dairy farm I was able to access different grants and funds. After 9/11 those programs actually decreased so a lot of my debt came from my last two years of college.

At college I was lucky enough to do a work study program where I worked for minimum wage where part of what I made went to my college bill and part of it I got to take home. But that still wasn’t enough for me to buy all my books because I grew up on a farm.

Anyone who has grown up on a farm knows that there is not a lot of money that can be spent for kids going to college. So I had to work another job outside the campus, another minimum wage job just to get by. So I want to go to Washington to make it better for other people.

Q: Access to affordable health care in rural areas is becoming more challenging as costs and insurance premiums keep rising. What steps would

you take to help reduce costs and provide access for health insurance for more people?

A: Since I was born and raised on a dairy farm, the closest hospital was about 35 to 40 minutes away.

Once I was in the emergency room and got sent home with a prescription and I found I was allergic to that prescription, so I was rushed back to the emergency room and since it was so far away, it was extremely frightening.

So we need to have more rural health care facilities and make it a one stop shop so people can go there and get their primary care, any addiction help they need, all of those places in all of our rural areas. Our governor signed a bill recently that gave Nurse Practitioners the right to practice without doctor supervision, which is going to obviously add a lot more providers into our network. That will improve access to care as well.

I also support Medicare for all. I think that is the only way we are really going to bring down out of pocket costs and the cost of prescription drugs. I currently have decent health care with my job and any time I have to get blood work done it is at least 80 dollars out of pocket. Eighty dollars doesn’t sound like a lot of money, but after a couple of months of doing this, it really adds up. It really hits home for me so I will go to Washington and fight for accessible health care for all and Medicare for all.

Q: Clean air and clean water are a vital part of our health and economy to the Shenandoah Valley. What would you do to protect the environment?

A: So, the environment has been my number one issue since I’ve been in the fifth grade when I started my first environmental group. I am currently the founder of Friends of Augusto which is a pipeline opposition group. I’ve been on the front lines for four years fighting against the Atlantic Coast Pipeline. I am working with farmers every day with management and practices on their land. We are seeing that the bay is having better numbers and less E. coli in it.

These pipelines would be horrible for our environment. But it is a bigger issue than just these pipelines. We need to keep our rivers clean and our air clean for all of us. I will be a very strong defender of our environment in Washington.

Q: Many people depend on Social Security and Medicare. We are told that these programs are at risk. What will you do to ensure that these programs remain funded and available for future generations?

A: So in our district we have about 75,000 people, which includes 10,000 kids, who don’t have health insurance.

That is a disservice to all of us. My belief is that the only way to solve that problem is to have Medicare for all.

To support Congress’s Medicare for all Act, I will also fight for the protection of Social Security but for also the increase of Social Security because no one can live on the average payout of $750 per month.

Q: Gun violence is overwhelming our schools and our neighborhood.

What do you propose to do about this situation?

A: I support four major gun reforms. One is to expand background checks, especially when we talk about gun shows and private internet sales and sale of bump stocks as well. I sup-

port Senator Feinstein’s bill to get the semi-automatic and assault weapons and the large feeding capacity devices off of our streets. So, bottom line, we just want to keep these kinds of weapons out of the hands of terrorists, domestic abusers and people who should not be owning guns, while protecting the rights of law abiding gun owners who want to hunt and have protection at home.

Q: Our region has a shortage of affordable housing. What can Congress do to address this issue?

A: In the infrastructure bill we need to include affordable housing. I work in the mental health field and when I am not discharging people from nursing homes and assisted living facilities or group homes, I am helping them find apartments.

Going back to having $750 a month to spend on housing, groceries and medication and all the other expenses – it is impossible. So we need to increase our affordable housing, but we also need to increase the vouchers, affordable housing vouchers, affordable choice vouchers through HUD (Housing and Urban Development) and right now it is a six-year wait list to get a voucher, and once you get a voucher it is gold. We need to expand that – we need to let more people get onto that. Also, when we talk about affordable housing, we also must be mindful of public transportation for access to jobs.

Q: What would be your highest priority upon election to Congress and which committees would you prefer?

A: So my number one issue is campaign finance reform. It is not as exciting as healthcare. It is because of the insurance costs as the reason for not having good healthcare. Why are we facing pipelines and a disastrous environment? It is because of the laws that we have. When we have so much power and influence that is given to special interests in these corporations and lobbyists, it takes away the power that we have as citizens, so I want to restore the power back to the people through campaign reform. I would also like to tackle partisan redistricting, we all know how horrible that is, and address voting rights as well.

I would like to address voter suppression. When I go to Washington I would love to be on the agricultural board and the ethics committee.

The Democratic primary to select the candidate for the Nomination will take place on June 12.

Peter Volosin seeks Democratic nomination for Sixth Congressional District

Candidate talks to local voters about small businesses and small farms

Peter Volosin participates in the Candidates’ Forum sponsored by the Warren County Democratic Committee on May 5 at the Warren County Community Center.

By Timothy Ratigan Warren/Frederick County Report The fight for the Democratic nomination for the Sixth Congressional District continues. With a field of four candidates vying for the seat, Peter Volosin is in the thick of it; trying to push his agenda and ideas, promising a fresh start for the Blue Ridge, for the seat that Congressman Bob Goodlatte is vacating at the end of the year. On the morning of May 5, Volosin met with three other candidates at the Warren County Community Center

to participate in a candidates’ forum sponsored by the Warren County Democratic Committee. During the forum, Volosin answered a series of Questions in an attempt to sell the voters gathered in the room on his Fresh Start agenda for the Blue Ridge.

“In the Blue Ridge, people are goodhearted and hard-working, but struggle to get by. For too long big companies have controlled how we work, how we access healthcare, even how we grow,” he declares in his campaign handout that will no doubt be making the rounds of the Sixth District should he capture the nomination.

“We need a fresh start, a revitalized local economy driven by small businesses and farms. I am running to

bring that fresh start to the Blue Ridge so you and your family can thrive,” the pamphlet continued.

“I was born and raised in Roanoke, Virginia where I live with my Husband Mark and our rescue dog Bruela. I’m an ex union organizer, so I fought for what is right and for fair wages and I am a former EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) so I know how our health care system works. I also know that we put corporate profits over people these days, so we need to find a solution for that. I’ve also stood up for civil rights and I’ve fought for gay rights here in America and in Ireland.

I’ll stand up for rights and access to the ballots for everybody. I am also an economic planner, so I am focused on how we can bring our district into the 21st Century. I want to have an economy that creates good paying jobs for everybody,” he said during his opening comments.

The Question and answer session follows: Q: What policies would you propose to encourage economic development and well-paying jobs in the Valley?

A: Small business is really important in the Valley. In America in general we’ve let corporations take free reign.

If you look in Roanoke we have a 20 percent poverty rate and a four percent unemployment rate. That shows that people are not making enough money to get out of poverty and what is the number two employer of our District? That answer is Wal-Mart. It is a company that typically pays minimum wage and gives people 32 hours a week, so they don’t have to pay for health benefits.

So what we do is make it easier for small businesses to be creative. It is much easier for us grow our own economy than it is for some company to start it here in the Sixth District.

What do we need to do that? We need to have infrastructure. We need rural

broad bands so that our local businesses can be both local and global.

We need to have better rail and road networks so that we can get goods in and out of our district. Those things will help our small businesses grow and make it attractive for small businesses in our area.

We also must focus on our farms.

They are small businesses too.

We have to start working on how we can rebuild our regional farming infrastructure so that local growers can sell to whole markets. That will help our small farmers move up the value chain and make more money off of their produce and that will make it more viable for farming, so more people will get into that industry again. The minimum wage is a huge thing for me. As a former union organizer, I know how to make a balance between corporate profits that can tear away from benefits. That does exist, and I’ve helped negotiate through that and what we need to be doing as a government is making sure that corporations are paying their fair share and that they are also paying their workers an appropriate amount.”

Q: Both college and trade education are becoming more critical to achieving economic success. Costs for both keep rising. What do you propose to do to help our young people gain access to affordable education and keep

from saddling them from enormous debt?

A: One of the big problems we see in our economy in general in this country is that we have a huge amount of student debt. I think it is over one trillion dollars’ worth. I believe that is one of our next crises. I myself have over 65 thousand dollars in student loans that I have paid more interest on than I do on my mortgage. If we want kids to be successful, not just in college and vocational schools we have to lower the burden. In community college we have 35,000 kids who can’t afford their housing. So what we need to do to help our economy so people can buy houses starting when they come out of school is to start subsidizing education.

We need to start with community college so people can get training, so they can right into the workforce and have economic benefit the next day.

We should also be having zero interest loans. There is no reason we should be paying high interest rates on these loans that are helping us get an education that is going to improve our country and our economy in the end.

We also need to create resources for working students, for those who are working, and who want to try and change into a new field to make more money or if it is something they would like to do. They have children and busy

eryone else in town. I think the number one reason is the insurance cost.

It’s like, my cut is not bad. I can just leave it and it will heal. [But what if ] it gets infected and gets worse?

Why do we do that? Because we don’t want to pay 100 dollars to go see the doctor. That’s why I think that Medicare X is the best way to go. Making sure we get a public option out there as soon as possible.

Medicare is in every county and every locality in this country already.

It also has networks in every hospital. That network is already built in and what we would be doing is building a public plan. That plan would be available to everyone. It starts out in localities like in Roanoke and the 12 localities in our district that are underinsured or have no insurer in the market. This Medicare X is a plan that can be used almost immediately in

lives and childcare that they have. It makes it harder for them.

So we have to be thinking, “What are those resources outside of just student loans that we can be giving them that will be successful in changing their careers and make a better future for themselves?”

Q: Access to affordable health care in rural areas is becoming more challenging as cost and insurance premiums keep rising. What steps would you take to help reduce cost and provide access for health insurance for more people?

A: Access to health care in rural areas is really tricky. There are multiple reasons why people don’t get health care out there. One is the lack of health care providers – lack of doctors practicing in rural areas. Some of that is privacy because sometimes your doctor is your friend and he knows ev-

grams remain funded and available for future generations?

A: I am of the millennial generation and a lot of us are worried about whether or not we will have Social Security. I pay into that every day whenever I am working. So I want to make sure it is sustainable in the long term.

The system has been tested by the Baby Boomers. They are the largest portion of the population and we are starting to learn what that looks like when a large group of people started to retire. So what we need to do is look at how that has played out so we can make better decisions about how we want Social Security to go on in the future. It was a plan in the 1920’s and it hasn’t deviated that much. So we have to take the evidence and ask how we can make this a more sustainable long term program so that people my age are going to have it when we retire. It is a huge thing for our district. When I get to Congress, I want to make that we have a strong Social Security system in place.

Q: Gun violence is overwhelming our schools and our neighborhoods.

What do you propose to do about this situation?

A: I was actually up here in Warren County about a month ago and it was there where I wanted to walk the walk.

A lot of times we go to our corners and we don’t talk to each other when it comes to gun owners and Democrats.

When I go to a door of a gun owner they tell me that I want to take away their guns and we know that is not true. So we have to talk to each other.

And that is something that I did, and imagine that: I talked to this person who had a NRA (National Rifle Association) t-shirt on and we came to an agreement on universal background checks.

That is what we need to be doing as Democrats and as a community.

We need to be reaching out to our gun owning friends and coming up

with common sense ideas on safety.

In Congress I think we can be doing things such as banning bump stocks, banning large magazines.

If it takes you 30 shots to kill a deer maybe you want to take up fishing. Armor piercing bullets are not necessary.

So there are some things we can be doing right now. Of course, having background checks and expanding them; making sure that those background checks are funded properly.

Q: Our region has a shortage of affordable housing. What can Congress do to address this issue?

A: I would like to be on the Housing and Urban Development committee in Congress. It is something that I know intimately with affordable housing (experience). I’ve studied it in school and I worked with it every day. Vouchers are actually a bad thing. It is almost like a red line where vouchers are only good in certain areas and they only give you so much money and those areas may not be best areas of the city or the town. We have in Roanoke a lot of housing projects that need to be redone. We need to put a lot of money into those. We can also be using low income housing tax credits. Those are a good way to make apartments having a certain number of their units listed as affordable housing. I also did a paper on using bus routes. [Build] affordable housing near bus routes so people can get to those jobs that they need.

Q: What would be your highest priority upon election to Congress and which committees would you prefer?

A: My first priority would be healthcare. It would be working across the aisle trying to get Medicare X passed as soon as possible because that is what we need. It is affecting us every day. Premiums went up 20 percent last year and they will probably do the same thing next year.

After that I think we need to work on infrastructure. This area has kind of been disconnected. We don’t have broadband and Interstate 81 is a mess.

It is hard to get in and out of the Sixth District, so infrastructure is going to be critical, not just for everyday use, but for businesses to be able to grow in this area. When I go to Congress I would like to be on the agricultural committee because a lot of our district is rural. So I want to make sure we are fighting for our farmers.

The Democratic primary to select the candidate for the Sixth District nomination will take place on June 12.

almost a couple of years. And we can expand it; go to small businesses and other counties. Soon it can be in all counties throughout the country. This is the next step beyond Obamacare, it is the next step towards that single payer.

Q: Clean air and clean water are a vital part of our health and economy to the Shenandoah Valley. What would you do to protect the environment?

A: I, like everyone else, oppose pipelines. I think they are bad for our economy, bad for our environment and bad for our people and bad for our property rights. But I am not just opposed to the pipelines. What I would like to do in Congress is to create trust funds. If these pipelines go through and there is a disaster, we have a way to clean up our rivers afterwards or deal with whatever disaster it is that comes from these pipelines. I would like to put on a tax on our natural gas systems, a small tax to go into a fund that can be used for environmental remediation and to help with any natural disasters that may occur from those accidents. I also think that we need to look at these that are being built. We have 19 pipelines in the area that are being built in the Sixth District, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. They are all in this fight with us together.

We also need to be moving towards renewables, so we don’t need pipelines. We also need to have a strong EPA (Environment Protection Agency) so that when we do build these things they are following the strictest regulations so that our earth will be clean for not just us but for the future generations. I also believe in carbon pricing. I heard recently that our carbon level has reached a dangerous level.

Q: Many people depend on Social Security and Medicare. We are told that these programs are at risk. What will you do to ensure that these pro-

Courtney Alexis Ferguson Front Royal woman charged A 28-year-old Front Royal woman, Courtney Alexis Ferguson, has been charged with three misdemeanors related to an incident reported on May 25, 2018. Ferguson reported to police that she was a victim of an attempted robbery in which she sustained lacerations to her leg and hands. Ferguson claimed that two masked males demanded money and a struggle ensued.

The subsequent investigation has revealed that Ferguson filed a false police report.

Detectives determined that Ferguson sustained her injuries while kicking and breaking the glass door at the former Simonpietri’s Pawn Shop, located at 528 South Royal Avenue. Ferguson has been charged with filing a false police report (18.2-461), destruction of property (18.2-137) and interfering with property rights of another (18.2-121).

Anyone with further information regarding this active investigation is asked to contact Detective Waller with the Front Royal Police Department at (540)636-2208 or via email at lwaller@ frontroyalva.com

He was charged in Haverhill District Court with armed assault with intent to murder, discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a building, unlawful possession of a firearm, and obstructing a police investigation. More information about his arrest and charges can be obtained from the Haverhill Police Department.

Front Royal Native serves with Navy Strike Fighter Squadron Patricia Ann Miller Driver of getaway vehicle identified and in custody

Airman Rebecca Peyton of Front Royal is an aviation ordnanceman with the Flying Eagles of VFA 122. Photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Tim Miller.

By Kayla Turnbow, Navy Office of Community Outreach LEMOORE, Calif.- A 2012 Warren County High School graduate and Front Royal, Virginia, native is currently serving with a U.S. Navy strike fighter squadron which flies one of the world’s most advanced warplanes.

Airman Rebecca Peyton is an aviation ordnanceman with the Flying Eagles of VFA 122, which operates out of Naval Air Station Lemoore.

A Navy aviation ordnanceman is responsible for maintaining gear that weapons are loaded on to aboard the aircraft.

“I was taught to always remember where you come from and stay humble,” Peyton said. “No matter where you go in the Navy, there will always be a diverse group of people and it’s important to keep in mind the different backgrounds and do your best to work with those people.”

Members of VFA 122 work with the F/A 18 Super Hornet, one of the most advanced aircraft in the world.

The Super Hornet takes off from and lands on Navy aircraft carriers at sea and is capable of conducting air-toair combat as well as striking targets on land. It is approximately 61 feet long, has a loaded weight of 51,000 lbs., and a max speed of 1,190 miles per hour.

Operating from sea aboard aircraft carriers, the Super Hornet gives the Navy the power to protect America’s interests anywhere, at any time. The versatile jet has the ability to destroy targets located hundreds of miles inland, without the need to

get another country’s permission to operate within its borders.

“Strike Fighter Wing, U. S. Pacific Fleet, based at Naval Air Station Lemoore, California, is the heart of Naval Aviation,” said Capt. James S. Bates, Deputy Commodore, Strike Fighter Wing, U.S. Pacific. “The sailors assigned to SFWP always exceed expectations and produce amazing results through team work and dedication to their department, squadron, the U.S. Navy and their family.

Naval Aviation is a challenging occupation, but our sailors work day in and day out to provide fully mission capable aircraft and fully qualified aircrew to ensure leadership is able to answer national level tasking. I am humbled to be able to lead the sailors of SFWP and I am proud to call Lemoore my home.”

Peyton has military ties with family members who serve and is honored to begin a family tradition.

“My little brother is in the Navy,” said Peyton. “He was doing so well in the Navy and being able to see what he was accomplishing made me want to join.”

Peyton is also proud of earning Flying Eagle of the Month in December 2017 for managing a collateral duty as an airman.

As a member of one of the U.S. Navy’s most relied-upon assets, Peyton and other sailors know they are part of a legacy that will last beyond their lifetimes providing the Navy the nation needs.

“Serving in the Navy means always being a part of a family,” Peyton said.

“No matter where you come from or where you have been, it’s a family.”

Patricia Ann Miller, 50, of Winchester, has been identified as the driver of the getaway vehicle during last week’s robbery of a taxi driver.

Miller was arrested and charged on May 30th for robbery. She was transported to Northwest Regional Adult Detention Center where she is being held without bond.

The victim of the robbery, a taxi driver, reported that a female subject that she had picked up in the down-

There are Fewer than 150 Guam Kingfishers in the World A female Guam kingfisher, a brightly colored bird and one of the most endangered bird species on the planet, hatched at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI) in Front Royal, Va., May 17. The Guam kingfisher is the most endangered species living at SCBI. There are about

140 Guam kingfishers in the world and they all live in human care. The chick has been living in an incubator that mimics the conditions of a nest.

A closed-circuit camera inside the incubator caught the exact moment the chick hatched.

It has been four years since the last chick hatched at SCBI. Guam kingfishers are notoriously difficult to breed.

They are territorial and it has been difficult to match compatible breeding pairs. The chick’s mother and father moved to SCBI from the Saint Louis Zoo in 2016 and 2014, respectively.

This was the first fertile egg they have produced together. However, since the pair did not display appropriate parenting behaviors, keepers artificially incubated the egg and are hand-raising the chick.

The incubation period for Guam kingfishers is relatively short—only 21 to 23 days. The chick hatched after 22 days. During the incubation, keepers candled—or shined a light against the shell of the egg—to track the chick’s development. When it hatched, the chick weighed 5.89 grams. For the first seven days, keepers fed it every two hours between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. The chick eats chopped mice and crickets, mealworms and anoles. Keepers are gradually decreasing the number of feedings until the chick is 30 days old and ready to fledge the nest.

All existing Guam kingfishers are descended from 29 individuals. They were taken from the wild into human care in the 1980s to create a breeding program to save the species from extinction. SCBI hatched its first chick in 1985. Since then, 19 chicks have hatched at SCBI as part of the Guam

I applaud the Administration’s intention to improve the current program. However, these reforms are only good while the current Adminis-

tration is in office. Just as the Obama Department of Labor rescinded the George W. Bush Administration’s regulations, such modifications will only provide temporary relief from the onerous H-2A regulations. Our nation’s farmers and ranchers deserve more certainty than that.

“The current H-2A program does not meet the needs of our nation’s farmers and ranchers. It is expensive, flawed, plagued with red tape, and isn’t available to farms that require year-round labor. A permanent legislative solution is needed to address the farm labor crisis. That is why I have introduced legislation to permanently replace the outdated H-2A program with a reliable, efficient, and fair program, ensuring that farmers and

ranchers will have access to a legal, stable supply of workers for seasonal as well as year-round work.”

Background: Earlier this year, Congressman Goodlatte, House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas), House Judiciary Committee Immigration and Border Security Subcommittee Chairman Raúl Labrador (R-Idaho), and House Homeland Security Committee Border and Maritime Security Subcommittee Chairwoman Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) introduced the Securing America’s Future Act (H.R. 4760). This bill secures the border, bolsters enforcement of existing immigration law, provides a legislative solution for the current beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood

On June 12 there will be a primary election to select the Democratic Party candidate for the 6th Congressional District, Bob Goodlatte’s old seat (he is retiring this year). Four very good candidates will be on the ballot, but I am supporting one in particular, Peter Volosin. Peter was the first person to announce his candidacy well before anyone know Goodlatte was retiring, and he has been campaigning tirelessly every since.

What impresses me the most about Peter is that he believes in building consensus and speaking to all sides to come up with solutions that work and will help the people of the Shenandoah Valley. As a native son, Peter grew up in Roanoke, the son of a small business owner, a restauranteur. He saw first-hand the struggles that small business owners have to deal with on a daily basis and he wants to make sure they can thrive and create more jobs.

He has also been a labor organizer and understands the struggles of people who live paycheck to paycheck, and he negotiated successfully on their behalf for better pay and working conditions.

He has worked as a first responder/ EMT on an ambulance and seen the tragedy of people without health insurance. He wants to make sure that everyone has access to health care, es-

Hi Stewart, What do you know about Beech trees?

– Vickie in Front Royal

Ask Stewart

Hi Vickie!

The American beech (Fagus grandifolia) occurs across much of the eastern United States and southeastern Canada, with a separate population in Mexico. It is the only Fagus species in the Western Hemisphere.

F. grandifolia tolerates hotter climates than European species, but is not planted much as an ornamental due to slower growth and less resistance to urban pollution. It most commonly occurs as an overstory component in the northern part of its range with sugar maple, transitioning to other forest types further south such as beech-magnolia. American beech is rarely encountered in developed areas unless as a remnant of a forest that was cut down for land development.

Beech wood is an excellent firewood, easily split and burning for many hours with bright but calm flames. Slats of beech wood are washed in caustic soda to leach out any flavor or aroma characteristics and are spread around the bottom of fermentation tanks for Budweiser beer. This provides a complex surface on which the yeast can settle, so that it does not pile up, preventing yeast autolysis which would contribute off-flavors to the beer.

Beech logs are burned to dry the malt used in some German smoked beers, giving the beers their typical flavor. Beech is also used to smoke Westphalian ham, various sausages, and some cheeses.

The fruit of the beech tree, known as beechnuts or mast, is found in small burrs that drop from the tree in autumn. They are small, roughly triangular and edible, with a bitter, astringent, or in some cases, mild and nut-like taste. They have a high enough fat content that they can be pressed for edible oil. Fresh from the tree, beech leaves in

spring are a fine salad vegetable, as sweet as a mild cabbage, though much softer in texture. The young leaves can be steeped in gin for several weeks, the liquor strained off and sweetened to give a light green/yellow liqueur called beech leaf noyau.

Beech wood tablets were a common writing material in Germanic societies before the development of paper. The Old English bōc and Old Norse bók both have the primary sense of “beech” but also a secondary sense of “book”, and it is from bōc that the modern word derives. In Swedish, these words are the same, bok meaning both “beech tree” and “book”.

And last but not least, Beech bark is extremely thin and scars easily. Since the beech tree has such delicate bark, carvings, such as lovers’ initials and other forms of graffiti, remain because the tree is unable to heal itself.

* It was French author, philosopher and journalist Albert Camus who made the following sage observation: “Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal.” * Famously flamboyant country singer and songwriter Dolly Parton once entered a Dolly Parton look-alike contest -- and she lost.

Public Meeting Scheduled For Route 17/50/522 (Millwood Pike) Bridge Over Interstate 81 At Exit 313 The Virginia Department of Transportation and the Commonwealth Transportation Board will hold a public hearing concerning adding a line item in the 2019-2024 Six Year Improvement Plan for proposed replacement of the Route 17/50/522 (Millwood Pike) bridge over Interstate 81 in Frederick County. The meeting will take place from 4 to 7 p.m., Tuesday, June 12, 2018 at Strasburg High School, 250 Ram Drive, Strasburg, VA 22657.

This meeting is being held on the same date and in the same location as the Interstate 81 Corridor Improvement Plan study meeting, which runs from 4 to 7 p.m. and focuses on the entire I-81 corridor.

Separate displays and information will be available for each meeting.

The bridge on Route 17/50/522 (Millwood Pike) Bridge over Interstate 81 at exit 313, built in 1964, is reaching the end of its service life and needs to be replaced.

This public hearing for the Route 17/50/522 (Millwood Pike) bridge is to add this project as a line item in the 2019-2024 Six Year Improvement Plan and begin receiving State of Good Repair (SGR) funding. If funding for this bridge project is allocated additional public meetings including a public hearing concerning design elements will be held in the future.

State of Good Repair funds address infrastructure maintenance needs. Most SGR projects replace

pavement and bridges; SGR funded projects cannot increase capacity, such as adding additional lanes.

Once in the SYP, the Win-Fred MPO may apply for Smart Scale funding for capacity improvements to enhance the value of the project and provide a longer-range solution to congestion problems in the corridor.

Smart Scale applications are submitted biennially; applications for FY20 are due by August 1, 2018.

Smart Scale applications are scored on factors including economic development, accessibility, safety, environmental quality, and in urban areas land use. The viability of a Smart Scale application increases significantly if other resources, such as SGR funding, exists on a project in the six year improvement program.

Citizens can come in during the meeting hours and discuss the project on a one-on-one basis with VDOT officials. Written comments can be submitted at the meeting or within 10 days after the meeting date to Mr. Scott Alexander, P.E., Project Manager. Virginia Department of Transportation, 811 Commerce Road, Staunton, VA 24401-9029.

Oral comments can be recorded at the meeting with the assistance of a court reporter The VDOT Staunton District serves Frederick, Shenandoah, Clarke, Warren, Page, Rockingham, Augusta, Highland, Rockbridge, Alleghany and Bath counties.

* If you’re a sailor you’re probably familiar with the hazards of being out on the water: high seas, storms, hidden reefs. You probably wouldn’t count whales among the dangers, but you’d be wrong.

In 2010, on a day sail out of Table Bay Harbor in South Africa, a couple on a 30-foot sailboat were whale-watching when one got too close for comfort. A 40-ton whale they had been viewing breached right next to the boat and landed on the deck, breaking off the mast and then thrashing around before sliding back into the water. The whale lost some skin and blubber, but was otherwise unharmed; the couple were lucky to still have a seaworthy craft and made it safely back to the harbor. * Married women aren’t likely to be surprised by the following tidbit of information: Studies show that women with husbands typically do 30 percent more housework than single women do. * If you’re heading to the state of Washington with mischief on your mind, you’ll need to keep in mind this state law: “A motorist with criminal intentions [must] stop at the city limits and telephone the chief of police as he [or she] is entering the town.” I bet that one has been really effective in stopping crime.

Engle’s Angle: “9 ½”

By Kevin S. Engle I’m not having a great day.

At this moment, I’d rather be doing almost anything else right now.

Like getting acupuncture, from a first time acupuncturist.

Or having my spleen removed, just for the fun of it.

I’m here for one reason and one reason only.

My wife made me.

She can be mean sometimes, even if it is for my own good.

I need new shoes. For a wedding.

Brown casual shoes.

A couple months ago, we were in a shoe store.

The exact same one I’m standing outside of at this very moment.

“Just look at what’s here so you’ll know what you like,” she said that day.

And I did.

For all of two minutes.

“That’s it?”

“That’s it.”

It was all I could stomach.

Today I need a bigger stomach.

I’m here for the duration.

“Don’t come home until you get shoes!”

She didn’t say those words, but that was the reality.

My reality.

I’m running out of time.

The wedding is just a few weeks away.

In a final act of desperation, I pull out my phone and call her.

“Are you sure what I have on won’t work?” I asked, trying to plead my case one last time. “I think these are fine.”

“What are you wearing?”

I described them to her.

“Get new shoes!”

I told you she can be mean.

My brother-in-law calls it ‘pride of ownership’. Caring enough about your appearance that you do what you have to in order to

look presentable. Like shaving more than once a month or buying new shoes at least once every ten years.

I care about my appearance. I really do. But I admit, sometimes I’m lazy.

Ok, a lot of times.

And going shopping is never high on my To Do list.

Today it was at the top, unfortunately.

I took a deep breath and went in.

I retraced my steps from two months ago, walking up and down each aisle. I focused on the casual shoes, even the whitesoled ones that I don’t really care for but seem to be in style these days.

Within a few minutes, I narrowed my choices to three or four possibilities.

Luckily, my #1 selection was available in a 9 ½.

I tried on the left shoe.

It felt fine.

I did the obligatory walk down the aisle to test it.

I was satisfied.

And that was good enough for me.

And just like that, I was done.

Like a lot of things that I put off, the thought of doing it was worse than actually doing it.

I put the shoe back in the box, slipped on my old one and walked to the register.

“I hope these last forever,” I told the woman behind the counter. “I hate shoe shopping.”

“I hope they do too, for your sake, but not for the store.”

After paying, I headed for the car, glad to be a free man again.

Which ones did I get?

The shoes with white soles.

I hear they’re in style.

The author got new jeans recently too. It’d only been five years for those.

By The History Channel * On June 27, 1829, English scientist James Smithson dies, leaving behind a will with a peculiar footnote. Smithson decreed that the whole of his fortune would go to the United States, to found an establishment for the increase and diffusion of knowledge. Today, the Smithsonian Institution is composed of 19 museums. * On June 26, 1945, delegates from 50 nations sign the United Nations Charter, establishing the world body as a means of saving “succeeding generations from the scourge of war.” Four years later, the cornerstone was laid for United Nations headquarters, in New York City. * On June 28, 1953, workers at a Chevrolet plant in Flint, Michigan, hand assemble the first Corvette. The car carried a price tag of $3,490 and could go from zero to 60 mph in under 12 seconds. * On June 25, 1969, the U.S. Navy turns 64 river patrol gunboats valued at $18.2 million over to the South Vietnamese Navy so that they could assume more responsibility for the war, raising the number of boats in its navy to more than 600. * On June 30, 1975, less than a week after her divorce from Sonny Bono, Cher tied the knot with rock star Gregg Allman, only to file for divorce from him just nine days later. She then reconsidered and remained married to Allman until 1979. * On June 29, 1989, in reaction to the Chinese government’s brutal massacre of protesters in Tiananmen Square in Beijing earlier in the month, the House of Representatives unanimously passes a package of sanctions against the People’s Republic of China. China remained largely unrepentant. * On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong reverts back to Chinese rule, ending Britain’s 99 years of rule over Hong Kong. In exchange, China pledged to preserve Hong Kong’s capitalist system. (c) 2018 King Features Synd., Inc.

* A paintbrush makes it really easy to clean out the crevices in your car. You can tape it to a ruler to get a longer reach and use it between the chairs and the center console, where there are a lot of crumbs but it’s hard to reach. * “I found an all-plastic mattress cover, meant to be a protection against spills or wetting the bed.

I use it instead to protect my outside picnic table when the kids are doing messy crafts, like painting or working with glue or dyes. Because it’s a fitted sheet, it grips the table in any amount of wind, so it never flies up. I can hose it off to clean up, and when it’s dry I just store it until next time.” -- M.W. in Minnesota * Thrift store pillowcases make an excellent dust cover for stored purses and bags. They can be trimmed to size, if necessary, and tied closed with a bit of string. * * “For fun pancake shapes, use a turkey baster. Fill it with pancake batter, then spell or draw on a heated and oiled pan.
