Council says farewell to O’Dell Former mayor remembered for his love of Montross Linda Farneth Members of the Montross Town Council honored former Mayor R. David O’Dell Jr. at their meeting last week. O’Del died Dec, 31 after a six-week illness. The long-time mayor, who was the former owner O’Dell Jr. of the former Montross Blue and Gray Food Store, was 71. O’Dell had served as Montross mayor since his election in 1999. He had been a member of the Montross Town Council for 35 years. “There’s a vacancy that we can fill but we will never replace Dave,” Councilman Robert Zimmerman said. “I can’t think of another individual who had such a deep love and passion for the town of Montross,” said Councilman Larry Wheaton. “I believe he did; he held a very deep

Ault to fill O’Dell’s seat Jesse Ault was chosen over 13 other applicants vying to fill out the term of the late Mayor R. David O’Dell Jr. Ault will take his seat as a council member at the February Montross Town Council meeting. The group will then vote to select a new mayor. passion for it.” So deep was his passion that shortly before his death, O’Dell conveyed kind words concerning all the council members and Town Manager Brenda Reamy to Vice Mayor Joseph King. King had the foresight to write down the mayor’s comments, which he shared with the group at the Jan. ?? council meeting. “We know how much he cared about the town,” King said. “His comments usually were spot on. He had the best interest of the town, all the time.”

O’Dell’s term was set to end in 2016 and there are no town elections scheduled before the end of that term. Ault will remain in the seat as an appointed member for the remainder of the original term. Currently Vice Mayor Joseph King is taking on the duties of mayor until a new mayor is chosen. Councilman Ferdie Chandler took trips with O’Dell and the two had lunch together at least once a month. “There was hardly a time that we went out somewhere that he didn’t have some mention of the town,” Chandler said. O’Dell’s message to Councilman Clinton Watson had a particularly emotional impact on him. O’Dell described Watson as an “awesome” pick for the town council, quiet and methodical. Watson, overcome with emotion, struggled to say, “I have just one word. Impressive. That’s it.”

Like many business ventures that started in Montross, O’Dell was very supportive of Councilman Terry Cosgrove and his wife when they opened their business, The Art of Coffee. “I’ve learned a lot from Dave; I’m fortunate to have the opportunity to serve on council and all of that time was under his leadership and I’m grateful for that,” Cosgrove said. “It’s been really hard for me.” Brenda Reamy said through tears. “Dave gave me opportunities with this position probably nobody else would have. I had no background of government other than working on the town audit.” O’Dell was described as a strong supporter of business, a strong leader and a good friend. “I feel very honored to have served with him,” Zimmerman said. “Being the youngest member of council. I wasn’t sure if I was going to be taken as just some new kid. Never ever did I feel like my comments weren’t being respected. He was a great leader for this town.”

Colonial Beach police probe a shooting death on Hamilton Street.

Colonial Beach woman charged in shooting death Richard Leggitt A Colonial Beach woman is being held in the Northern Neck Regional Jail in lieu of $80,000 bond after being charged with involuntary manslaughter and reckless handling of a firearm in connection with a fatal shooting Jan. 27 at a Colonial Beach residence. Sierra Seantaine Dillon, 44, is charged with causing the death of Sharon Dickerson Smith, 58 of Colonial Beach. Smith’s body was found about 5:30 a.m. by officers responding to a 911 call from a home at 100 Hamilton St.

The incident still is being investigatied by Colonial Beach police and Westmoreland County sheriff’s officers, according to Colonial Beach Police Chief Bruce Hough. Hough declined to discuss what may have touched off the fatal shooting or provide further information about the incident. Funeral services for Smith were scheduled for Monday at the Monroe Bay Assembly of God Church, where she was a member. Smith is survived by her husband, Richard Smith of Colonial Beach, a son and a daughter. She was a member of the Colonial Beach Rescue Squad.

Program teaches students benefits of community service Linda Farneth Colonial Beach High School seniors Brooke Payne and Kadera Lyburn have turned community service into a passion. I love the program. I love being able to come and see how happy I can make somebody just with a meal. It’s crazy how much it means to somebody,” Payne said Colonial Beach High School juniors are required to perform 30 hours of community service and seniors 40 before they can receive their diplomas. Principal Jennifer Grigsby said the community service requirement can be met in any number of ways, including, volunteering at animal shelters, helping at school functions, helping organizations that raise money for charitable causes, volunteering in

“Even families who couldn’t afford to give, wrote thank you cards at the end of summer and made small donation if they could. It just meant the world to us.”

the town or school community for beautification purposes, working with the fire department or rescue squad or aiding local churches with events. “Our goal is to help students understand the need to truly become one with the community in which they live,” Coates said. “Service to that community only adds quality to the lives of all members. Caring, benevolent graduates that have experience and willingness to help others is part of what CBHS strives to accomplish when sending young adults into the world.”

Payne began helping her mom, school board member Michelle Payne, with the boosters working athletic games. “But then I realized to do all that, I would be working my butt off to get those 70 hours,” she said. Payne talked with her mother about issues in the school and learned that about 70 percent of students were on free or reduced lunch. “So I couldn’t think about anything other than what is happening when school isn’t there to give them lunch or breakfast,” she said.

That’s when she teamed up with her friend Lyburn and created “Pay it Forward.” The girls started off paying out of their own pockets, along with help from their mothers, creating simple hot meals for anybody who needed one. The program operated every Thursday evening throughout the summer beginning in 2012. “At first, we did easy meals, such as pancakes, soups and salads,” Payne said. The girls sought donations, but “nobody wanted to help us at first,” Payne said. Eventually people started to see the difference the program was making and started to donate. “Even families who couldn’t afford to give, wrote thank you cards at the end of summer and made small donation if they could,” Payne said. “It just meant the world to us.”

Payne said she saw people of all ages taking advantage of the program. The girls handed out fliers and went to churches and food banks to raise awareness of the program. They even talked with a homeless shelter in Fredericksburg, inviting them to bring folks to Colonial Beach to get a meal, sit, socialize and have a night away. “I love doing community service because we’re so small (a town),” Payne said. “I’m not going to have that when I leave. “Colonial Beach is such a tight-knit community, you can’t get that anywhere else. It’s not the same in King George or W&L. It’s small and tight-knit and everybody is looking out for each other. I like that a lot.” She is modest about her achievements. “I just like being able to look around and see the difference that I made, even if it’s a small one, it’s a start.”

Michael Kovach, a Colonial Beach man facing charges on 58 counts of pornography, indecent liberties with a child and sodomy, is now scheduled to go to trial on 45 of those charges March 27 in Westmoreland County Circuit Court. Kovach, 36, who has been free on $90,000 bond since his arrest in 2014, is scheduled for trial on the 13 additional charges July 16. The second trial will focus on allegations Kovach had sexual relations with a juvenile under the age of 14. Kovach has entered pleas of not guilty to all of the charges against him. He was arrested early last year after Colonial Beach police and Westmoreland County sheriff ’s officers served warrants on his home and seized his computer and other electronic devices. Kovach was charged with the 45 counts of child pornography at the time of his arrest. The additional charges of having sex with a minor came after an extensive investigation by the Westmoreland County Sheriff ’s Office and Virginia State Police. The charges against Kovach, which will be heard by a Westmoreland Circuit Court jury in a three-day trial in March, include possession of child pornography, reproducing child pornography and distribution of child pornography.

VIRGINIA VIEWPOINTS

Something smells foul in Richmond

Richmond has a funny smell these days. And no, I don’t mean the kind you sense when you take a deep breath. Though, I guess in a way, there are similarities. Rather I am thinking of David S. Kerr the ethics and morals of the legislature and the state government. Something seems to have gone off track. Just a few years ago, the average

Virginian probably would have given their state government, their members of the House of Delegates, State Senate, and governor, high marks when it comes to ethical behavior. Unlike, Illinois, Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland, to name a few, we had never had a governor or statewide official, indicted let alone convicted. Now, former Gov. Bob McDonnell, a Republican, has been sentenced to two years in jail for bribery. He is free on appeal. Ethics, gifts and conflicts of interest, though resulting in no legal action, also were a major issue in Ken Cuccinelli’s campaign for governor. He too had taken some

gifts from the same man who was accused of bribing the governor. Interestingly, he apparently, even by doing so, violated no state law. That’s not all. In 2011, Delegate Philip Hamilton, a prominent GOP member of the House of Delegates was convicted of extortion and bribery. His crime was soliciting employment from Old Dominion University while at the same time introducing an amendment to fund the new job. Cozy, certainly, but also a crime and he is serving 9 and a half years in prison. There also was the scandal last year regarding efforts to get Democratic Sen. Phil Puckett to stay or leave his seat.

Letters to the Editor King George needs more input from citizens Dear Editor; On Jan. 6, 2015, history repeated itself when the King George County Board of Supervisors continued the same pattern of “dysfunction” that The Free Lance-Star highlighted in their own editorial of Jan. 15 [Questions in K.G.]. The four long-standing male supervisors again went out of their way to marginalize the fifth — and only female — member by passing her over once again for a leadership position, and in the process, disallowing the Dahlgren district, which includes the U.S. Navy base, true representation. Their reason — “she won’t work with them” (aka agree with everything they say). Also, she is the only one courageous enough to bring up issues the other supervisors don’t want to be publicized. By their actions, they continue to keep the county’s residents out of their insular decision-making process. After all, an uninformed electorate doesn’t ask annoying questions when a board acts to help its good old boy friends contrary to the long-term health of the county. One of local government’s jobs is to help guide and control change as a county grows; it should not exist only to protect a few old-time county residents and the local companies that benefit from that growth. Persisting in making deals behind closed doors with no attempt to explain their unethical-looking actions makes all their votes and motives suspect to suspicion. Supervisor Ruby Brabo, clearly our most involved supervisor, alone holds regular citizen town hall meetings and publishes newsletters, transparently sharing her vision and the county’s processes. If all of our supervisors would follow her lead, it would go a long way to alleviate suspicious feelings and open up all the supervisors to residents’ issues and spread the “bad news” delivery burden that she is blamed for. An elected official’s job is to serve the constituents not to dictate their own agendas. Politicians need to get out and talk with all their constituents to get their steering orders. Those who only look for citizen input every four years from “election feedback” on how they are doing have proved a continued disaster for King George County. Warren Veazey

command a livable wage. The truth of the matter is that this shouldn’t even be a discussion had by the federal government, rather a state discussion with power to implement and money given to local governments. For instance, in our county of King George: If we had specialized vocational training, businesses would see a work force and most likely locate where there are skilled workers. Just my opinion, but worth a look at. Jeff Bueche King George

What’s on your mind? Is there an issue you’re passionate about and on which you want to weigh in with your opinion? Well, we want to hear from you. Please send your letters to the editor to news@ journalpress.com

Convicted of having relations with a minor (his 17-year-old receptionist), he quit his seat only to get reelected in a special election. He’s an outcast but he’s still there. Recent felony indictments for perjury and forgery may put an end to that, but for the time being he is a member of the General Assembly. Something is very wrong in Richmond. Most of these situations involve inappropriate influence and severe ethical lapses. One incident wouldn’t be that bad. These things happen. This pattern has gotten out of hand. It seems a new culture has evolved and it’s not a good one. At the very least, during this

term, the General Assembly needs to enact stringent rules on gifts and ethics. At the same time, an ethics commission, with real teeth, needs to be created. We just can’t keep going along with way we have been. The smell is simply getting to be too much for Virginians to tolerate. There is one more warning. This is an issue that won’t go away. It seems to be getting worse every year. Those legislators that don’t act, that don’t take a positive stand for strong ethics legislation, may find that ethics and the culture in Richmond will be an issue in their primary and general election campaigns.

More vocational training needed, not more college Dear Editor; With the president seeking two years of free community college for all Americans, I feel compelled to argue against. How would this improve employment opportunities? It wouldn’t. Every American already is provided a 12-year education and with two years of college added, it would cost the already exhausted taxpayer and there is nothing that improves chances for employment if everyone has the same qualifications. It would further devalue college education as a whole. I argue that rather than community college, if there is a real concern over enhancing employment opportunities, expand vocational training opportunities. Yes, there is a shortage of “skilled” workers in this country and “skilled” workers

wanted him to stay, and hold their one-vote majority, while there were those in the Republican Party who wanted to entice him to resign. It was never clear what happened, but there was talk of possible lucrative state jobs for the senator and the future appointment of Puckett’s daughter to a state judgeship. Eventually, the senator quit, and yes, his daughter got a judgeship. It’s hard to tell what really went on, but this whole affair did its part to contribute to the unpleasant odor emanating from our state capitol. Oh, and then just to add a sick comedy to this parade of iniquity, there is Delegate Joe Morrissey. Morrissey is a former Democrat.

The VA Dept. of Conservation and Recreation will notify selected participants via e-mail by May 1. The program will be held June 21 to July 11 and July 19 to Aug. 8. Teams of eight to 10 participants will be chosen from current high school students between the ages of 14 and 17 (participants must be 14 by June 1). Applicants must demonstrate an interest in protecting Virginia’s environment. While no prior experience is necessary, participants will work outside, and the service is physically demanding. A positive attitude, an interest in learning, curiosity about interpreting nature, and the physical ability and desire to work

outdoors are also important factors in the selection process. YCC crew members are provided room, board, T-shirts and equipment. They receive a $500 stipend at the end of the three weeks. YCC participants help with assorted park projects, including wildlife and fisheries habitat improvement, trail and campground construction and restoration, timber and shoreline improvement, and landscape beautification. The YCC is modeled after the federal service program AmeriCorps and the depression era Civilian Conservation Corps that built the original six Virginia State Parks. For more information about the YCC program, visit www.dcr. virginia.gov/state-parks/youthconservation-corps.shtml. Call (804) 887-8933 or e-mail vspycc@dcr.virginia.gov.

Briefs Summer volunteers sought for state parks Volunteers are needed across Virginia to spend the summer serving in state parks – connecting park guests to valuable natural resources and leading trail improvement projects. The Virginia State Parks AmeriCorps Volunteer Project provides 25 opportunities for part-time AmeriCorps members to serve in state parks between April and September. AmeriCorps members plan, develop and lead interpretive programs. They also assist park staff in coordinating service projects in Virginia State Parks. Members serve 675 hours and receive a bi-monthly living allowance. After successfully completing a term of service, AmeriCorps members are eligible to receive an AmeriCorps education award of $2,114, which can be used for education expenses. Volunteers selected as AmeriCorps members receive in-depth training on various subjects including trail improvement, interpretive programming, customer service, volunteer management and watercraft skills. Applications are being accepted and positions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. More information and the required application can be found at www.americorps.gov.

Rappahannock movie wins film contest award Organizers of the Fifth Annual RVA Environmental Film Festival have announced Rappahannock, a 40-minute movie about the history and ecology of the Rappahannock River, has won the event’s “Local Documentary Film Contest.” Rappahannock will be shown between 3 and 5 p.m. Feb. 8 at the historic Byrd Theatre on West Cary Street in Richmond. “We had several strong runner-ups, but Rappahannock stood out,” said Scott Burger, the contest organizer. “It gave a really comprehensive look at one of America’s most historic and beautiful rivers.” The first half of the film features the history of the Rappahannock watershed, beginning with the American Indians who lived there before the arrival of Europeans, and includes details about the Civil War in the region and the advent of commercial fishing. The second half explores the ecology of the river and the environmental challenges it faces in the 21st century.

Training available for April 25 5K run/walk Colonial Beach Elementary School students were treated Jan. 30 to a host of individuals explaining their careers and what is involved in doing their jobs. Various jobs in the medical field, construction, graphic design, bus driving and food services were represented. Two members of the U.S. Coast Guard were on hand to discuss their jobs, including Natalie Rothman, above, who showed students how life jackets are used. Emergency Medical Technician Pat Fitzgerald, left, showed students how medical equipment helps diagnose patients to offer temporary relief and even lifesaving care until they can reach the hospital. The students saw presentations from six career representatives. Linda Farneth

This week a second look at some of the interesting pieces patrons brought to the Saint Clement’s Island Museum’s Appraiser Fair. One lady came with a magnificently carved soapstone urn in its original box, dating from the late nineteenthcentury. Although the piece had a couple of dings, the overall workmanship was superb, exhibiting the extraordinary skill of oriental stone artisans. Henry Lane It was the best piece of carved Hull soapstone I ever have seen. One gentleman came with two Eastern Shore duck decoys, both well cared-for and showing the right signs that they had been used in the water, and were not merely ornaments or figurines. One bore the original paint, but the other, which was more elegantly carved, had been stripped and stained, thereby greatly reducing its present value. Another gentleman came with a

surveying tool that his family legend had passed down as having been used by George Washington in surveying Pennsylvania. The age of the piece, mid-seventeenth century, was correct to substantiate the family tradition, but without proper documentation, that element of family lore does not become a factor in appraising or evaluating the piece. Often I encounter folks with well-meaning stories that cannot be documented, and I frequently caution prospective buyers not to put oral tradition into the equation of whether to purchase an item or not. Collectors always need to be aware of what they

are getting for their money, and another person’s family word-of-mouth tales do not count as provenance, regardless of how good the pieces are or are not. In this particular instance I urged the owner to look through old family wills and other documents to try to find some level of verified support for the family tradition. I also suggested inquiring at Mount Vernon and the Smithsonian Institution in an effort to obtain corroboration for what indeed might be historically accurate information. In the meantime, the value is limited to that based on demonstrable evidence. Happy Antiquing!

Lady Drifters continue to roll Leonard Banks Sports Editor

King George’s Nana Djan, right, defends Caroline’s Jaquan Monroe.

Foxes can’t hold onto 14-point lead Leonard Banks Sports Editor Caroline turned the tables on the host King George boys’ basketball team during a Jan. 30 non-conference game. Along with overcoming a 14-point third-quarter lead, as well as foul trouble on AJ Derricott, Caroline finished with three players in double figures during their 70-60 win. From the tip-off to final shot, there was no rest for the weary. The game was a no-holds-barred, fourquarter, up-tempo, full-court game. Shooting guard Darius Young made his presence felt in the first quarter, leading the Cavaliers to a 17-13 advantage by scoring eight points. Foxes Nana Djan and Jalen Stepney combined for 10 points to keep King George within reach. Djan finished the game with 15 points. King George all-conference point guard DeQuan Whiting sparked a 10-2 run late in the second quarter to give the Foxes a 32-23 halftime lead.

Whiting finished the game with 19 points, four assists and two steals. Midway through the third quarter, it appeared the Foxes were going to walk all over the Cavaliers. Faced with a 14-point deficit, the Cavaliers resorted to a full-court press, which turned the tide for Caroline for the remainder of the game. The press yielded dividends right away, as Stepney was forced to the bench after picking up his fourth foul. Stepney finished the game with 11 points and four rebound. The Cavaliers closed the quarter with 15-0 run, shutting down the Foxes’ offense for the final five minutes of the quarter. Whiting cut the Caroline lead to 61-58, part of his 11points in the quarter. The Cavaliers finished the game with 10-0 run to put the cross-county contest away. The Foxes host Chancellor at 6 p.m. Jan. 6. Currently, in the Conference 22 standings, King George is in third place.

Slumping Eagles fall again to Raiders Coach George Hunter worried about his team’s energy and intensity after Washington & Lee fell to the Rappahannock Raiders 75-66 Friday at Montross. “We played with no intensity or sense urgency,” Hunter said after the disappointing loss, the second of the season to Rappahannock. “No energy from the bench and no chemistry.” His Eagles were outscored in all four quarters, but watched the game get away from them when the Raiders held them to only eight points in the third. Tre Brown scored15 points for the

slumping Eagles and Jarrett Sumiel had 18. Usually productive D.L. Kelly had only eight points. Marcus Byrd had 23 for the Raiders and Kelvonte Ellis was high scorer with 32 in the victory. The Eagles are now 8-6 for the season but only 2-4 in the Northern Neck District. “We have to find some of the above of it will be over in the first round of the tournament,” Hunter said. “Hopefully the addition of Jacques Douglas will bring some much needed energy to the team.” — Richard Leggitt

With each passing win, the postseason playoff picture is beginning to unfold for the Colonial Beach girls’ basketball team. After disposing of Essex (6138), and Lancaster (73-34), the Drifters (17-3) have a secure firstplace lead in the 1A Conference 43. The Drifters are an undefeated 7-0 in the conference, and it appears they are well on their way to their second conference championship in two seasons. Throughout the season, the Drifters have relied on using three sets of teams to confuse and run its competition into the ground to the point of exhaustion. Head coach Keith Dickerson carefully orchestrates his game scheme by using every member of the team at some point during the game. For all general purposes, the game against the visiting Essex Trojans was over in the first quarter. With less than three minutes remaining, shooting guard Alexis Wilson scored eight points to lead a 10-2 run that ended the quarter with an 18-8 Drifters’ lead. Although the Drifters sustained a 10-point plus lead throughout the second quarter, the Trojans offense, led by Denaisha Pratt (five points in the quarter) managed to keep the game within reach by scoring nine points. At halftime,

Richard Leggitt W&L’s Jake Daiger wants to do it all. Daiger runs cross country, is a wrestler and a star on the high school’s football and soccer teams. He is an actor who has performed at Fredericksburg’s Riverside Dinner Theater and in the Monsters and Mysteries cable television series. He is a soon to be Eagle Scout and has been a participant in the American Legion’s Boys State. Daiger has represented W&L in the state forensics competition and is an honors student who attends the Chesapeake Bay Governor’s School, studies pre-engineering at Rappahannock Community College, plays an acoustic guitar, is in the church choir, wakeboards on the Rappahannock River and is into the exciting new sport of slacklining. “I am the type of person that tries to do everything I can,” said Daiger, a senior at Washington & Lee. “If you do not try to do as much as possible, you will have a lot of regret later in life.” Daiger, his brother Brad and his sister Megan, are a high-achieving trio raised by parents Gary and Ruth Daiger of Westmoreland County. All excelled in academics and in high school sports, especially soccer. Brad

is a junior at Randolph-Macon College and Megan is in her second year at the University of Virginia. Ruth Daiger said the secret to encouraging Jake and his siblings to achieve in school and in activities is simple. “Keeping them busy,” she said. “As soon as they were old enough, we had them out doing something. It’s easy to allow them to spend their time playing video games and watching TV but it is not helpful.” Jake is a captain of the W&L soccer team and was all-conference, all-region and second team all-state last year. He also was a captain of the cross-country team all-conference, all-region and second team all-state in that sport. He has been on the wrestling team and was a walk-on kicker on the Eagles’ varsity football team this year earning all-conference, all-region and second team all-state honors. “My dad convinced me to play football,” Jake said. “It was definitely interesting and it was good to get out there and try a new sport. My dad really pushes me. Without him, I would not be as good as I can be.” “I saw his potential,” said Gary Daiger, who is a civilian employee of the Navy at the Dahlgren base. “I wanted him to get outside and do something.” In the summertime, Gary and

Ruth Daiger, who is the comptroller at Rappahannock Motors, frequently are out on the Rappahannock River near their home, boating and wakeboarding with their children. “I am extremely into wakeboarding,” said Jake. Daiger said when he has a few spare moments, he also likes to play the acoustic guitar. He has performed at open mic night at the Art of Coffee in Montross. He also performed in several roles at the Riverside Dinner Theater and in programs for cable television. In academics, Jake is in his fourth year at the Chesapeake Bay Governor’s School, where he is studying marine

and environmental science. He also has been attending Rappahannock Community College for three years studying pre-engineering while also making the honor roll and allacademic team at W&L. “Technically, I will graduate from RCC before I graduate from high school,” Daiger said. “That’s kind of cool.” Daiger said many of his best times have been playing high school sports with his teammates at Washington & Lee. “The people on the athletic teams are just amazing,” he said. “I will definitely carry those memories the rest of my life.”

Bitter cold, wind can’t deter youth duck hunters Mark Fike

The week was building with excitement for three King George youth. They love to hunt and have recently just taken up the tradition of waterfowling. I have another name for this and it is a disease called quackitus. Some say you get hooked on quack, some call those infected with it quackheads. Whatever the term one might use, crazy would be a very good synonym. Capt. Pete Lawrence with Chincoteague Hunting and Fishing Center on Chincoteague Island hosted a Youth Waterfowl Hunt on Youth Waterfowl Day, Jan. 31. It is doubtful that weather much worse than what arrived the night before could have been ordered. However, after a five-hour drive, there was no stopping the youth from going hunting. We arrived at Leah’s House, our lodging for the night on Chincoteague Island late at night and quickly settled in to the clean, warm comfort of the house for a few hours of shut eye while the winds howled outside. Geese

In what seemed very little time, a few birds scoped out our setup and wheeled away without us shooting at them. The youth soon got it together though and Rex brought down a beautiful merganser. Faith joined him later on a merganser and her own gorgeous bufflehead. Kristy took down a merganser of her own that was very pretty.

were heard clearly honking outside, which further excited all of us. Our hunting gear quickly was jammed into the cab and bed of the truck the next morning and we hurried to meet Lawrence and were given a brief on the day’s plan. Lawrence carefully observed the group of young people and their parents in a thoughtful way and then asked which groups had cold weather gear and waders. After a bit of mulling over the conditions and options, a plan was formed to meet at the local boat ramp and be ferried out to blinds one group at a time. Our group consisted of myself, my daughter Kristy, and our friends Faith, Rex and their father Craig. When we arrived at the boat slip to don our cold weather gear and waders, I was stunned how cold the wind was. With wind chills teetering at 4 degrees and the wind ripping at our clothes, I had concerns. The kids were motivated though and Craig kept them moving while helping them into their waders for the icy ride to the blind. My fingers were numb to the point I could not

even close my pocket knife after cutting open some handwarmers. My hands simply would not work at all. After shoving my hands into some gloves for a few minutes I was back in action. Craig has quite a bit of knowledge of cold weather and trained for it in a former career. He cautioned us about getting too warm while waiting in the truck for our trip on the boat. Sweating in the waders would create a disaster as that sweat would cool off when we sat still and we would get very cold very fast. Lawrence mentioned that to us too. We had the kids layered up and I was in several layers myself. When our turn came to load into the boat I noticed a lot of water had

frozen on the deck and back in the stern area. Andy, our guide, warned us to face the rear of the boat as the spray would freeze on us instantly. The 24-foot open skiff cut its way through the maze of Chincoteague marshgrass and sent a spray of water up that the howling winds caught and slapped on anything in its path. I watched as ice built up on the sides of the boat. The situation was pretty incredible and to think we were hunting in this was just plain nuts. When the skiff slowed down and thumped into the marshland, we slid across the icy bow onto firm land near a huge but comfortable and excellently built blind. We had a radio to keep in touch with the guides and watched as Andy chucked a few

mallard decoys out and a half dozen other dekes of various species, too. The wind was howling against the rear wall of the blind but the temperature was noticeably warmer in the blind despite it being open In what seemed very little time, a few birds scoped out our setup and wheeled away without us shooting at them. The youth soon got it together though and Rex brought down a beautiful merganser. Faith joined him later on a merganser and her own gorgeous bufflehead. Kristy took down a merganser of her own that was very pretty. Throughout the morning we moved around some inside the blind but kept a wary eye out for birds. Although the tide was falling fast and the wind was blowing it out even more, the spot where the guide put us still afforded ample shooting despite the conditions. We also stayed warmer than we would have in other blinds. The kids learned a lot about waterfowling by watching the birds as they approached and streaked in at various angles. Their shot pattern was seen easily peppering the

water when they took down birds or missed and we had discussions about lead, swing, sight picture and ethical shots. We ended up hunting until the guide called the day due to weather and the falling tide, leaving us with less water to navigate the marsh. I would never have thought we would stick it out all morning but we did easily. At the end of the day, the kids had bagged a half dozen ducks and made a memory that will last a lifetime. Once we slid into the skiff and hunkered down for the ride back, I began reflecting on the hunt. From the beginning, Lawrence had the safety of the kids and adults in mind. Our grizzled captain put his knowledge to use to locate us in a spot where the wind would not suck the warmth from the kids and end the hunt and still where we would see some ducks despite the conditions. Those things, along with the assistance of my friend Craig with his expertise, made the trip completely enjoyable for the kids in an otherwise unenjoyable situation.

Murals making comeback throughout the region They’re being used by area businesses, to spruce up towns Richard Leggitt At Professional Plumbing Solutions, Matt Hayden has experience in dealing with customers who have flooding problems. But since he put a huge mural on the side of his building on Kings Highway in King George, he has been dealing with a flood of calls from potential customers. “We have lots of people who, after they saw our sign on the building, called and said they needed our help,” Hayden said. “That is just what we wanted.” Haden had been looking for a new way to reach customers. “We looked at the cost of a sign, but everyone looks at signs and they don’t pay attention to them,” Hayden said. “So I put a post on Facebook looking for someone who could do a mural.” Hayden got a number of posts about various artists who do murals, but he selected Jesse Clift, of King George, and Clift finished the mural on the side of Hayden’s building at 10176 Kings Highway early this year. Murals as art and as advertising on the sides of buildings were seen frequently in this country in the 1940s and 1950s, but died off before beginning a resurgence the last few years. Today, there are more than a dozen murals advertising products, places and events from Fredericksburg down the Northern Neck to Lancaster, including Hayden’s mural, two murals advertising the beach in Colonial Beach and four in Montross that have been done as part of that town’s revitalizationproject. The Colonial Beach murals were done by the Colonial Beach Artists Guild several years ago and are

Montross’ murals, which were done last year, are on the side of the Carrot Cottage, the Westmoreland Museum, Bridget’s Bouquets and the old Coca Cola building. “They bring feelings of hope and joy to Montross,” said Cindy Nelson, a co-owner of Eagles Catch Antiques. “It seems a lot of people are getting into murals,” said Clift, a 33-yearold self-taught artist who grew up in King George and graduated from King George High School. “Most of the ones I have done previously were on the inside of buildings.” Clift said he got into art and drawing when as a little boy his mother suggested he draw his own pictures rather than use a coloring book. “I have been drawing since I was

little,” he said. “Now, I can do any type of art, from pen and paper to graphics on the computer.” Clift does all types of commercial art, from signs to banners to lettering on vehicles and he prides himself on understanding what his customers want. “I can devise something and draw it up after 15 minutes of talking with someone,” he said. “It makes me happy to see people smile,” Clift added. “Art does that, it makes people smile, all kinds of art.” One of those smiling is Hayden. “Jesse’s mural is really doing the job for us,” he said. “The other aspect of selecting him to do the mural was helping another King George person. It is just as much for his business as it is for mine. It has been a win-win for us.”
