Explore Basque culture at annual festival A great day for the bathtub race

winnemucca

he Winnemucca Basque Festival, being held this year June 11-12, is a beloved community event celebrating Basque culture. Expect to sample delicious Basque cuisine, experience traditional Basque dance and dress, and get a glimpse into what it means to be Basque. People of Basque heritage originate from four provinces in Northern Spain and three adjacent regions in France. The Basque Country includes the regions around the Bay of Biscay and the Pyrenees Mountains. The origins of the Basque people are not entirely known. They speak a very unique language called Euskera. The Basque people began to emigrate to the western United States around 1850, drawn by the California Gold Rush. Many of these immigrants soon turned to running livestock, and became a prominent presence in the western range sheep industry. In fact, “Basque” has been closely correlated with the term “sheepherder.” In no time at all, the Basque people began to be present throughout the Great Basin region. They were not only sheepherders, but also as cattlemen. They came to this country willing to work hard, and were found to be extremely dependable. Today, although most of the range sheep industry is gone, Basques continue to play a large role in the livestock industry. Descendents of the early Basque herders still live and thrive throughout the west not only as stockman, but also as business and community leaders.

In Winnemucca, the Basque culture is very prominent. The annual festival in June hosts a variety of traditional Basque games; including weight carrying, and Jota dancing. Groups of dancers from around the region gather to perform traditional dances that celebrate their culture and passion for life. Interested in Basque dining? Visit one of the many Basque restaurants dotted throughout northern Nevada. Meals are generally served family style with numerous side dishes. Don’t forget the famous Picon Punch, which is an alcoholic drink. It is not to be missed! Basque hotels can be found throughout the region. Originally, many of these hotels served as winter homes for Basque herders. Today, they serve as social hot spots across the Great Basin, where Basque food and drink are a highlight for most travelers and locals alike. F

Get swept up in the sport

austin

he Holy Gale Landsailing race will be held June 23-25. It is a great and rare opportunity to view these high-speed demons as they race across the smooth lakebed surface. The Smith Creek Dry Lake, which is where the Holy Gale event takes place, is about 28 miles southwest of Austin on Nevada State Highway 772 (this is sometimes shown on maps as Highway 2). This dry lake was the site of the 2014 World Landsailing Championships. Previously this and other events were held on the Black Rock Desert in northwestern Nevada. Landsailing involves moving across land in a three-wheeled vehicle with a sail, powered only by wind. The rider (known as a pilot) sits or lies in the vehicle and controls it via hand levers and pedals. For more information about Holy Gale and other landsailing events, visit nalsa.org. F

GROCERIES • DELI • WINE • FLORAL 1041 Grass Valley Road, Winnemucca

Succulent pork with honey and sage makes a great weekend dinner. With a slightly sweet crust, this pork pairs wonderfully with asparagus and new potatoes for a spring dinner that screams comfort. There are two secrets to a moist pork loin: Sear it to lock in the flavor and don’t overcook it. To sear, leave the loin undisturbed in a hot pan, except for turning, so that the outside caramelizes. Then pat with seasonings and finish roasting, fat side up, only to 145F. To keep leftover pork moist, try this tip. Thinly slice the pork loin, to the bottom of the roast but not through. Press together. Drizzle olive oil over the top, allowing it to seep between slices. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and store in the refrigerator. Pork loin slices are perfect served on sandwiches.

Railroad St.) on June 18 at 7 p.m. The Nell Robinson & Jim Nunally Band brings five genre-busting artists together to bring joyful music infused with folk, bluegrass, americana, roots, swing, jazz, and the blues.

This is truly an all-star band. The Nell Robinson & Jim Nunally Band released their new EP ‘West’ in Berkeley, Calif. on April 30, 2016. ‘West’ is the first of a four-part, five-song EP series named after one of the four cardinal points on a compass – North, South, East, and West – and a U.S. tour date will coincide with the appropriate region throughout 2016. ‘East’ will be released with a special show in Washington D.C. at the end of June. When placed together, the back covers of the four releases will form one piece of art. Physical copies will be available for purchase for only $5 at all live shows, and digital versions will be available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon starting this June. “We are excited about releasing a series of eclectic new works with a super talented band,” said Jim Nunally. “We pay homage to great artists like George Jones, Buck Owens, Tammy Wynette, while our original songs like ‘Mirror’ take folk music in an entirely new direction. We aren’t just following a path; we are paving a new one.” “Hey, five is the magic number this year, it’s a number that signifies change and grace,” added Nell Robinson. “Five songs per album for $5, five jazzed musicians … and I turn 55 this spring!” For more information about The Nell Robinson & Jim Nunally Band, check out their website at nellrobinsonmusic.com.

YOUR HOROSCOPE FOR JUNE ARIES (March 21-April 19). The boundaries might not be clearly marked, but that doesn’t mean they don’t clearly exist. You’ll know the lines when you see people’s reactions as they are crossed. Stop and observe. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your attraction to the exotic will lead you to observe a sliver of the world known by very few. The mystique will draw you in, and there will also be practical reasons to stay engaged. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Do not be tempted by glittering novelty in all things. Shoes and smiles are at their best when shiny and fresh, but encouragement and inspiration are best sought from a source that is timeless and inexhaustible. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Wonder why you’re so popular today? Well, your diplomatic instincts and a generally supportive attitude are part of it. There’s also a light in you that people witness and are warmed by. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your manner of handling the drama is to give it just the right amount of focus to make it sink into the background, adding an interesting texture to the day without commanding it completely. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s a huge difference between having a joyful awareness of the best in you and having an addiction to selfies. Mostly the difference will have to do with who benefits from the gift of your presence today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The basics of food and sleep will make the biggest difference in this day. There will be so many ways to play it. To seize opportunity, one must be flexible of mind. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Each sign is different when it comes to stress. What one sign considers taxing another finds exciting. Mostly, you will find the rubs of the day stimulating to your intellect, body and imagination. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). As for the more unnerving aspects of life, well, you’ll handle it. You will. You’ll do what’s necessary, possible and prudent. There’s not a challenge out there that you won’t manage with aplomb. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Good relationships depend on good communication. Certain conversations will get stressful, but it’s worth your while to pursue the line of questioning anyway. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will be too busy to attend to the people who bother you on the regular with tasks that are, by now, not calling on your higher instincts—or theirs, for that matter. Haven’t you served enough? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People who are “hard to get” don’t have to play at it. Your availability is limited because you’re there for so many for what they vitally need. You’re doing a fine job of it—and making someone crave you all the while.
