We are about four weeks into doing our commercial harvest of the woodlot. Technically it is a “commercial thinning” which means cutting out the undesirable species (fir, poplar and white birch mostly) and leaving the good trees. A walk along and through the harvest area still shows lots of trees and now with with lots of room are ready to do some serious growing and will quickly make up for the trees removed. Unfortunately, harvesting is still not pretty. In the harvested areas, the ground is covered with limbs and tree tops, and while it doesn’t look like pristine forest, the slash is important. First, it protects the topsoil from being compacted and torn up by the heavy equipment. And secondly, the brush mat protects the topsoil from the eroding effects of heavy rains. Forestry work is not unlike other types of restoration or renovation. First, things get ugly (broken plaster and torn out cupboards) and then things start to look better and finally beautiful. Forestry work, unfortunately, has a longer time frame. An estimated three years for the slash to start really breaking down and for the new trees to become more visible. All in all, a reasonable timeframe for the forest that I envision is likely 500 years away give or take a 100 or two. My rock harvest is getting near it’s end. I am positive that I have passed the 90%+ harvest of rocks needed to finalize my bridge project. While the bridge and both approaches are fully

On Our Cover

functional, I still want to widen it a bit and my driving over the rocks is slowly driving them further into the soft ground and I will have to continue adding some from time to time. Even though the bridge is designed to handle the projected water from any rain, I am untrusting, and so one approach is designed to handle any overflow situation by allowing water to flow across a road of clear rock that will prevent any serious erosion of the soil. Now, what I need is a first class heavy rain to test my belief that this bridge project is a rock solid (pun intended) environmentally sound work that can handle nearly any amount of water with no damage to the stream. 0002

ASK THE CHEF BISCUIT SECRETS

Colin Sifton here again from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. I have had a lot of people ask me how I make my tea biscuits. I have an employee who challenges me to a bake off of tea biscuits because she says hers are better. Of course there are hundreds of ways to make tea biscuits which yield many different densities, shapes and flavours. Here is a little about tea biscuits. Ever since the creation of wheat, we have had bread. Before we discovered yeast for rising bread dough, we created many different breads using other ways to create carbon dioxide, which gives bread its height and density. The secret to a good tea biscuit, is density, flavour and layers. You never want a tea biscuit to be too dense. This is caused in a few different ways. Most common way is overworking the dough. Other causes are not enough

your hand. Fold the dough and flatten again. Do this five or six times but don’t let the butter melt too much. This gives layers and traps air into your tea biscuit. Instead of having a cake like consistency, you are left with layers which you can pull apart. Flatten to about ½” thickness and cut to the size you want (use a glass or biscuit cutter). Once you get all possible cuts, push remaining dough together and repeat. Eventually you will get one last ball. Cook at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on your stove. They should be a light brown and slightly darker on the bottom. These are best served warm and within an hour. 0040

liquid or fat. Here is the recipe I follow for my tea biscuits. For me, it is not what is in it, but how I prepare the dough which gives them the appearance and texture. Start with dry ingredients: 2 cups flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tbls baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cream of tartar. Now cream of tartar is not necessary but helps with different reactions of the tea biscuit, giving air and lightens your tea biscuit. Because it is an acid, it also bleaches the flour creating a whiter dough. So you mix your dry ingredients together - add 1/2 cup of butter. You can use shortening, but it is nowhere near the same. Chop your butter and mix to create little pea size balls. Use your hands. It is faster and easier to get the consistency you want; add 1 cup milk and mix slowly. You do not want to over mix, you just want the milk to absorb the dry ingredients. Remove the dough and flatten with

TAOIST TAI CHI™ CLASSES In the Taoist tradition, a person’s health depends on the harmony of body, mind and spirit. Taoist Tai Chi™ arts offer access to this tradition. On the physical level, Taoist Tai Chi™ arts exercise the entire physiology, including the tendons, joints, connective tissue and the internal organs. Working on these movements under the guidance of an accredited instructor contributes to better balance, and posture, increased strength and flexibility, improved circulation, calmness and peace of mind. The Taoist Tai Chi™ arts develop a body that is relaxed and resilient at the deepest level. The focused concentration required to practice Tai Chi occupies the mind, drawing it away from daily worries and tension. Each step in our training is intended to help the mind return to stillness, clarity and wisdom, and the body to a balanced, relaxed and healthy state. Visit: taoist.org for more detailed information. Taoist Tai Chi classes start the week after Labour Day in Hampton (Wednesday, September 14) at St. Alphonsus Church Hall 6:30-8:30pm; Rothesay (Monday, September 12) at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, 7:00-9:00pm; and Saint John (Thursday, September 15) at the Assumption Centre SJWest 7:00-9:00pm. Classes are for adults of all ages including teens. This program is offered through the Fung Loy Kok Institute of Taoism, a volunteer, charitable organization.

The Hampton Herald

SELF ESTEEM S.T.A.R.T Pat Benatar would have us believe ‘Love is a Battlefield’. Though that may be true, I believe the greatest battle each of us face every day is in our mind. The average person has 40,000-70,000 thoughts per day - roughly 40-50 per second. Hazard to guess how many of those thoughts are negative? Negative thoughts rear their ugly heads in our already busy ‘mindfield’ and can sometimes roam virtually unnoticed. Negativity becomes so deeply embedded that it not only infects our mind but our heart also. Much like a bacterial infection, left untreated you end up with a full fledged infection that eats away at your core. Not a great way to live but many of us do! There is no medication, no quick fix. However, each of us can begin by changing how we think. Take back control of your mind. Learn to ignore the negativity, reject the lies, forgive yourself and others and release yourself from your self-made prison. Watch what’s going on

in your brain every day and realize that not every thought you have is true. Take a closer look at the thoughts that are holding you back. If you are negative most of the time, try to look for the positive side more often. If you are consumed by fear, find one way you can be brave and build on that. If you hold on to anger and resentment, try to forgive and release one small thing today, another tomorrow and each day after that. Redirect your brain to be different. Each of us have that choice every day. Decide that you are going to think, do and live differently, more positively. When we decide to see the positive side and start making the right choices, it feels good. The good feelings will silence the negative voices in our head. Find your own mantra (a saying you can repeat over and over) to help your mind focus. Keep it simple but effective. Do not allow yourself to become overwhelmed. Life is a journey. As with all road trips, you will not arrive at your

destination if you never start your engine. Take one positive step at a time. Lasting change does not happen overnight. Be patient with yourself. Just start. You may not be able to stop all negative thoughts by simply flipping a switch, however making a single choice every day to keep your mind focused can make all the difference. To change your life, you must change your mind. To change your mind you must simply S.T.A.R.T Seek Truth And Redirect Thoughts. You may lose a battle (or 20) but never give up because you can win the war! 0027

Starts Here th September 8 is Day International Literacy

How to Help Your Child Get The Most Out of Reading Never is the phrase ‘the whole world is in front of you’ more true than when we are still young. Children’s eyes are filled with wonder and amazement, they absorb what they see of the world around them. Why not show them the good stuff ? Read to your child everyday, it doesn’t have to be for a long time, but it should follow a set schedule, much like a favourite television show, you should try to read to your child at the same time and in the same place. Maybe you read to them before bed, maybe you sit them down on the couch open a book and leave the TV off. The most important thing is that you

read to them, and have them read to you once they’re able. Help your child during the reading process by using your finger to follow the words as you read. What seems obvious to us about reading, isn’t so obvious to young ones. The concepts of capital letters, spaces between words, and reading from left to right are all new to them. To give your child the maximum benefit of reading have them help you read books that are at their comprehension level and read books to them that are above their comprehension level. Don’t get hung up on teaching though,

a lot of kids have a favourite book and there’s nothing wrong with reading that one book night after night. It may get boring for you but your child is still getting the benefit of reading and learning the words in the book. Show your child that reading isn’t just something that is done at home, incorporate reading into more parts of your day. Bring agefriendly books with you to the doctor’s office, play books on tape in the car. Many classic children’s stories can be downloaded for

free from www.librivox.org. Take them to the library and let them pick their own books from the kids’ stacks. Make reading more than just something to do when there’s nothing on TV. Inspire your children to read from a young age. Get them to read street signs and billboards to you. When they’re learning to write have them write their own stories. Take the time when your child is young and give them more than the ability to read, give them a want to read, a lust for knowledge,

and a love for learning. Make them crave those magical words that are tucked away between the covers. Today’s a great day to turn your child into a reader. Reading to your child at an early age can give a big boost in comprehension and literacy that will help them to establish a lifelong love of learning and follow them throughout their lives.

OBITUARIES

RUDDICK, Kathleen “Kay”

It is with sadness that the family of Kathleen “Kay” Gordon Ruddick, of Hampton NB, wife of the late J. Stewart Ruddick announces her death which occurred on Tuesday, August 16 2016 at the Dr. V.A. Snow Centre. She was born in Moncton NB on December 13 1923, a daughter of the late Gordon and Winona (O’Brien) Douglass. Kay is survived by her daughters Susan Ruddick of New York NY, Nancy Ruddick of Calgary AB, Barbara (Andy) Adams of Hampton NB, Martha Ruddick of Hampton NB; son Ian (Ellen) Ruddick of Grande Digue NB; grandchildren Amanda, Patrick, Tara; great-grandchildren Mikenzy, Gillian, Claire, Emma; several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her sister Sybil Blanche Morse of NS. A graduate of Moncton High School, she worked as a secretary before volunteering in 1945 with Red Cross Corps bringing war brides back over from Europe. It was a very exciting time for Kay and you can read her story at: canadianwarbrides.com and click on V.A.D.s in the left hand column. Her

name will appear at the very beginning of this section. Her work with the Red Cross did not stop at the end of the war as she managed a loan cupboard for those in need of crutches, wheelchairs, etc. She was awarded the Queen’s Jubilee Medal in 2002 for all her her charitable work, and she continued throughout her life volunteering on various activities in any community wherever she lived. She also, with the help of the late Mollie Fry, set up a second hand clothing fundraiser at Midway in Hampton, which was so successful, that she turned the third floor of her home into a business selling high-end consignment clothing from wealthy clientele to clients from near and far. Kay was also very creative - sewing, knitting, quilting, painting, gardening, cooking - decorating her home at Christmas time - baking the best donuts and cookies ever. She loved to entertain – any occasion was a special occasion. And she lived for company – you were always welcome to drop by anytime. Arrangements were entrusted to Reid’s Funeral Home, Hampton NB. Funeral service, conducted by Rev. Roland Hutchinson was held from Reid’s Funeral Home Chapel on Friday, August 19 2016 at 11:00am. Memories were shared by Susan Ruddick. Donations in memory of Kay may be made to the Canadian Red Cross, Dr. V.A. Snow Centre or to the memorial of donor’s choice.

HAMPTON HISTORY HAMPTON HISTORY - SEPTEMBER PART I

1. “Hampton like the rest of the country is Klondike mad. Everybody is talking Klondike, and a few, a very few are quietly maturing plans and making preparations for going out in the spring.” (WR, Sept. 3, 1897) 2. “A number of the residents were awakened from their peaceful slumbers at an early hour Wednesday morning by a wild unearthly noise. Many windows went up to ascertain the cause thereof. Various theories were given - some thought it was a choir practice, some that it was a women’s rights convention in regular session, while others, with an ear for music, said that winter was upon us and that all the wild geese in the north were going over in an immense flock. This theory was nearer right than any other. The real source of the music was two car-loads of live geese bound for the United States, and attached to a train that laid over at Hampton for some time. No person can imagine the noise two car-loads of live geese can kick up. You have to hear it to appreciate the effect. Nothing but a woman’s rights convention is in any way in it.” (WR, Sept. 22, 1893) 3. “The Episcopal Church near the station is rapidly approaching completion. It is expected that it will be consecrated this fall.” (WR, Sept. 16, 1887) The Church of the Messiah, technically the Sunday School Chapel of the Messiah, “opened December 11, 1887. Opening day services included early morning Holy Communion, a regular morning service for which the Chapel

‘was filled to capacity, although there was a steady downpour of rain,’ and a Children’s Service in the afternoon conducted by Rev. Canon DeVeber.” (RSH, page 184) 4. [Miss Vivien Myles Fowler of the Hampton United Church, in 1962, prepared a history of the church for its 80th Anniversary. It contains a most delightful item which was quoted in RSH, page 321] “A guest speaker, a short time ago, found the pulpit much too low for comfort. A different situation prevailed many years ago, when a box had to be brought in to elevate an extremely short speaker. The box bore his weight well, but did not extend far enough back. So when he announced his text, he took a step backward and was for a moment lost to sight. The fact that the text was part of John 16:19. ‘A little while, and ye shall not see me again; and again, a little while, and ye shall see me’ did not add to the composure of the congregation.” 5. “The last of the S.O.S. Boys to resume their studies at the Consolidated School were Master Jack Angevine, who has been spending the summer on a farm at Hammond River and Master Ned Crawford who has been at Midland. (KCR, Sept 20, 1918) [Note: During World War I a program called S.O.S. - “Soldiers of the Soil” was introduced into the schools and several Hampton boys participated. The boys went to farms in the area to help the farmers with tasks when help was difficult to get because so many young men had enlisted. Although

these boys were excused from school studies to a degree, many of them worked very hard for very little pay. Years later one of them told me that he was a S.O.S. and had to be up at 6 a.m., worked all day, sometimes until quite late and he made 50¢ a day. Also, some of the H.C.S. high school boys went to western Canada to help with the harvesting of the wheat crop.] (DGK) CODE: WR The Weekly Record (published in Sussex); RSH Reflections - The Story of Hampton, NB (published by the Kings County Historical and Archival Society, Inc.); KCR Kings County Record (published in Sussex); DGK Files of David G.

MORE THAN FITNESS AGING YOUR WAY How do you plan to spend your retirement years? When you think about it, do you picture yourself living an active life, chasing after the grandkids, travelling the world and living independently? That is how most of us like to picture things however, the reality is that the dreams we set for ourselves often don’t come to reality if we have not taken proper care of ourselves during our younger years. Our later years can be spent battling health problems, depending on others to assist us with tasks of daily living and even nursing home admission. It is never too late to make a difference! Making the choice to live a healthy, active lifestyle now can set the stage for your future fitness level. As we age, some changes in the body are inevitable while others can be slowed or even reversed with proper care and effort. It has been noted that up to 70% of the costs related to sickness and disease are preventable purely based on the lifestyle choices that we make.

If we remain sedentary, our aerobic capacity decreases by 10% per decade after the age of 25. This means simple daily activities like climbing stairs or mowing the grass will get increasingly challenging and begin to leave us huffing and puffing with minimal effort. As you age, you can expect to experience a 33% reduction in muscle fibers which is one third of our muscle mass! This loss translates to tasks such as carrying in the groceries or picking up the grandkids becoming more and more of a struggle. With age, our body also experiences an increase in fat stores with women’s body fat levels increasing from 25% to 43% and men’s from 18% to 38%. This increase can lead to elevated risk of diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Bone density is also at risk as we age, especially for women. Our bone density decreases at a rate of 1% per year after the age of 25 leading to bones becoming brittle, increasing risk of fractures from falls. Don’t despair – you can make a

difference! By participating in regular physical activity, eating well, ensuring you get enough sleep and managing your stress levels, you can combat these signs of aging. By participating weekly in cardiovascular exercise, strength and weight bearing activities as well as flexibility training each week, you can stay strong and healthy and reduce these age-related health declines. Go out and find activities that you enjoy and schedule them into your day just like any other appointment. Your body will thank you and you will add much life to your years!

KV QUILT SHOW & SALE

HELPING THE D.R. - BOOTS, BIKES & BAND-AIDS

This is a typical Dominican Republic “batey” or village where impoverished migrant Haitian sugar cane plantation workers and their families live. The picture speaks a thousand words - no electricity or running water (a village well or stream), hovels for homes, few schools, sickness. A far cry from how we live, and what you don’t see when visiting a Dominican Republic resort. Over the last three years, area Rotary Clubs successfully filled 40-foot shipping containers with donations of footwear, bicycles, and medical supplies, which are shipped to the Dominican Republic for distribution in some of these bateys. On Saturday, September 17 Hampton Rotary Club members invite you to drop off: used bicycles (in working order); gentlyused footwear (each shoe of the pair securely attached (high heels are of little use); simple medical supplies (non-prescription medications, vitamins, pain relievers, plasters); hearing aids, hearing aid batteries, eyeglasses; wheelchair repair parts, pads.

Drop off day, time and location: Hampton Town Square Pavilion. Saturday, September 17 from 8:00am2:00pm. Back-up location: Hampton Middle School. Rain date: September 24. Sending a shipping container is expensive, so we will gratefully accept cash donations to help defray those costs.

I have this fear of forgetting my loved one now that he/she is gone. Laughing and socializing with friends seems somehow disloyal. So many people fail to get on with life because of the feelings you describe. Be assured that you will never forget someone who was so much a part of your life. After a while, the good memories grow dearer and the not so good ones will fade. No one can take from you the time you shared with this person. Often it makes us feel guilty to be alive when new opportunities come our way and we begin to accept new joy and happiness. It’s called ‘survivor’s guilt’. But remember that this is a normal reaction, and it soon will pass.

HAMPTON FOOD BASKET NEWS We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~ Winston Churchill. Thanks to the many people who support this outreach with time, talents and treasures. We are in great need of a few able bodied volunteers who would help on the third Thursday of every month by assisting our clients with their carts. Many of our clients are suffering from ill health and cannot manage to push the carts up the ramp,

some are simply frail because of their declining years and some are single parents whose attention is needed to care for young children. We would appreciate help from 8:30am until about 11:00am, when tables need to be folded and stored; as well, we need setup help on the day before, Wednesday. Our regular volunteers are very willing to help but many are on the ‘golden side’ of 60 and are not as spry as they once were. Please help! Donations of clean, good quality clothing and household goods are greatly appreciated. Anyone wishing to

donate can call one of the information numbers to arrange delivery; goods cannot be left outside the Church door since they could impede traffic and be damaged by weather conditions. For information: Janice 832-4340; David 644-8476; Louise 832-5303; Betty 8327526. Our resources are such that we can only provide each family with a substantial supply of food once a month; we are open only on the third Thursday of every month between 8:30 and 11:00am (preparation is done the day before). Clients who are unable to come on the designated day will need to assign a friend or relative to pick up their order for them, bringing their medicare number and a note confirming the arrangement. We will continue the screening process in hopes of helping clients, as well as providing data to convince Government that more help is needed. The next preparation day will be on Wednesday, September 14 from 8:00 until 10:00am. Clients will be served on Thursday, September 15 from 8:30 until 11:00am. We ask that clients not smoke on Church property, if you need to, please do so in your vehicle. The Canada Helps website is being generously used to our benefit and we sincerely thank all those who are helping in this way; even small monthly donations enable us to better serve those in need, this system is easy to access and all donations will be recognised with a tax receipt in the New Year. Search for “Hampton Food Basket Canada Helps” and the process is simple, (should you wish to stop the donations the process is easy and immediate). If the idea of a monthly donation via internet does not appeal to you, cheques can be sent to our treasurer, 39 Tilley Street, Unit 2, Hampton, E5N 5B4. Our hearts will be gladdened, the poor will be overjoyed and I daresay that God, in his Heaven will recognize that something is right with His world! “Inasmuch as you have done it unto the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto me”. 0029

FAMILY MATTERS QUIET TIME HAS ITS BENEFITS Our children live in a society that is fast paced and always on the go. By the time our kids play with their friends, complete homework and fulfill their other many commitments, there is hardly any time for them to spend quietly and in calm. What is Quiet Time? Quiet time is a form of self-care that doesn’t involve over-stimulating the mind or sensory system. It is a critical part of growth and development. Best done in the absence of electronics, children can engage in age appropriate activities that include playing Lego, coloring, crafts, puzzles, journaling or meditating. Quiet time is a chance for kids to rest and enjoy activities that require reflection and self-direction. It teaches children to manage their restlessness and boredom. There are quite a few reasons to do daily quiet times. While parental sanity is one of the reasons, it’s not the only reason. Here are some important benefits of quiet time:

1. Builds Independence and Confidence. Quiet time allows kids to explore various opportunities requiring selfreliance. When children are alone, they are given the chance to solve problems on their own. This is vital to building self-confidence. 2. Time for Self-Reflection. Journaling or meditation during quiet time often results in self-reflection and developing feelings of gratitude. When our children are continuously busy with outside activities it’s hard for them to reflect on what they have and appreciate it. 3. Builds Creativity. It is in quiet time that children experience creative thinking. Kids disconnect from external noise when alone and are better able to reconnect with their ideas and dreams distraction free. 4. Relaxation Time. Overstimulation can cause stress in anyone, including our kids. Children however, have a tougher time pinpointing their stressors. Regular quiet time allows for re-energizing, re-

organization of thoughts and time away from their stressors. 5. Strengthens Focus and Attention. When kids slow down and engage in one activity at a time, they develop their ability to focus and concentrate. To strengthen their ability to focus and attend, children need practice. Concentration is best built by avoiding multi-tasking and during regular alone time. To make quiet time work for your family avoid using it as punishment, define a specific space, start it at an early age and use it consistency. This week enjoy the parenting journey and a little quiet time. 0006

IN THE GARDEN PLANTING FOR THE FUTURE To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow. ~ Audrey Hepburn. As fall approaches it is easy to think that gardening is over and that we are simply left with a great pile of tidying up and cutting back the perennials; it is however a time for planning for the future. Along with relocating plants comes the joy of choosing bulbs for spring flowering. Your selection will depend very much on the deer presence in your locality and whether you have a fenced in garden or not! Any member of the Narcissus family can be grown with confidence that the white tails will ignore them; occasionally an inexperienced deer will nibble at a leaf, but will spit it out and not try again. There are masses of different types of these wonderful spring beauties from miniatures to fairly tall and an impressive array of colours. Tulips though are another matter! Deer can sniff out these lovelies, even if they are surrounded by daffodils and will devour

them at the speed of light. Some folk have success with the range of sprays available, but the truth is that these destructive beasts have become immune to many of the evil smelling deterrents; even the expensive and usually effective Bobbex is no match for the growing appetite of the marauders! Similarly, Crocus, Fritillaries Blue Bells and Hyacinth etc. are fair game and need the protection of a fence. As with all bulbs on sale at garden centres, height and colour along with planting and location needs are listed on the bins containing the bulbs. Make sure as you plant your bulbs that you add their location to the sketch you made of the garden; one great system is to plant bulbs between existing clumps of perennials. Their blooms will be over long before any signs of growth appear and by the time you need to weed, their leaves will have died down and it will be safe to trample where they were planted. While this is the perfect time of year to

be transplanting, the dry season renders the ground an uninviting place and if you are dependent on a well, it might be best to wait for Mother Nature to deliver an abundant supply of the good stuff. All new plantings need a substantial watering for a week or two, both plants and trees, in order to survive the coming winter. Even though all the major seed companies have their goods displayed on the internet, I like to order the printed catalogues of a few favourites, to browse through on a winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day and dream a bit of the possibilities for next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paradise! Blessings. 0045

LISTEN IN SONGBIRD OF THE CITY I was a fan of Debbie Harrity’s voice before I actually met her. When I was producing a live Christmas recording in 2009 she was one of the artists I knew I needed on the CD. Harrity's voice is the sound of purity and joy with an ease that is reminiscent of Anne Murray. If you haven't heard her make a point of capturing her live soon. I caught up with Debbie just as she was heading out to a rehearsal. I was curious about how she started off in music, performing and where she drew inspiration from. “I started playing guitar at 14 yrs old and writing songs at 16. My parents and close friends were very instrumental and encouraging of me to pursue my passion of music, singing and playing guitar. My mom told me when she was carrying me before birth she would play the piano and pray that God would give me the gift of music. When starting out, the Irish Rovers were a huge influence on

my music and then of course Anne Murray, Joan Baez and Linda Ronstadt.” Debbie performs her music on her own terms and is in a great position at this time of her life (she recently retired) to perform from a very honest place. “My goals today are to pursue music for the joy of performing, to meet new people and entertain to the best of my ability when I want and where I choose to play." “I want to give back to my community and offer my singing in a therapeutic way which I find very fulfilling. The senior homes are one way in which I do this as well as many fundraising concerts throughout the year.” Debbie has even lent her talent to my mental health awareness initiatives events. I can certainly attest first hand on how she has really been gracious and selfless with both her time and talent. And her musical friends are no different. I know now you need to know the same thing I do. Where does she perform

next? “My upcoming shows include one titled Heart and Harmony with Carol Perry and Bev Dean backed by the amazing Del Worden, Mike Frontin and Paul DuJohn. This is taking place September 18 at the Luxor Shriners of NB on Mclaughlin Crescent. Tickets for this show are sold in advance and by the musicians only. I also sing weekly at Lily's Cafe on Saturday nights which is a lovely venue. Most Wednesday nights I’m at East Coast Pub with other musicians at an Open Mic Night.” Edited for space, see Jeff ’s full article at: ossekeag.ca. 0041

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS For the eighth year in a row, an evening filled with incredible music was enjoyed by everyone who attended “Concert by the Creek” on August 20. Organizer, Laura Myers said “once again, it was a great success. The weather was beautiful, the talent was amazing and the crowd was appreciative, as always. Even though we were competing with the Tragically Hip concert and a concert at Fundy National Park, we still raised a total of $1964.75 for the Hampton Piggs Peak Partnership! If you were unable to attend, but you would like to see this total increase, please feel free to make a donation!” Laura and her husband, Chris Rendell, lead the yearly effort to pull together this fundraiser for the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership but they are supported by a dedicated group of volunteers who not only help with this event but work year round to help our neighbours in Piggs Peak. I want to thank them for all their efforts and, on behalf of the Partnership, I want to thank our performers: Magnus Labillois and Sophie Armstrong; Doug Farrell; Byrann Gowan; Andrew Conrad; Emily Carlson and Edward Ryan; Richard and Heather Brown; Bill Preeper; Peggy

and Mark Woolsey; Derek Doucet and Aaron Boudreau; The Not So Dandylions (Paige Stevenson, McKinley LeonardScott and Bailey Dalton); Hannah Cummings; Elizabeth and Mary Allaby; and Edward Ryan. Thanks also to the tech crew: Luka Malatestinic; Chris Cormier; Zev Debly; Sam Moir; and Joseph Doherty. Finally, I would like to thank everyone who attended the concert and made a donation to our cause. The next fundraiser, which will help us to meet our commitments to pay school fees and help the gogos who desperately need our assistance, is the sale of our 2017 calendars “Hope in Action”, designed by Sue Hooper and Andrew Lamb. The pictures in the calendars will introduce you to some of the people in Piggs Peak and give you an impression of what life is like there. Our sponsors and contributors (listed at the bottom of this article) covered the production costs. This means 100 percent of the proceeds will support projects in Piggs Peak to alleviate the devastating impact of HIV/AIDS in that community. The calendars are available now ($20 for the

first one and $15 for each subsequent one) by contacting me, Mark Bettle, at markbettle1@gmail.com or any of our committee members noted on our website: hamptonpiggspeak.ca. Or just leave a message on Facebook at: facebook. com/hamptonpiggspeak . Calendar sponsors: Atlantic Press 2000; Barb Magee Insurance; C.K.

MUSINGS BEGINNINGS Ah, fall. Okay technically it is still summer, but in my mind once school starts so does fall. The air is crisper, cleaner, fresher. It even smells different. And somehow it brings with a new energy, replacing the more languorous feel of August. It is like having a second go-round with New Year’s Day, for not only does school start, but so do many other activities after a summer break. If there is a better time to re-commit to those New Year resolutions I cannot imagine when it would be. I was never the kid who hated to return to school in September. Much as I loved the summer days spent largely outdoors (or curled up with a book on the rainy days), I always loved getting back to school and re-engaging my brain. And tho’ my school days are long past, I still get that same lift as September rolls around. In fact, there have been some studies that would indicate brain function really does suffer during hot summer days. A study from the UK shows memory, temper and

problem-solving ability are all negatively affected when the temperature rises above 80F (27C). It is believed that as your body works to cool itself, energy is drawn away from the brain, resulting in less than optimal performance. For those of us who do not function well in the heat, September is the perfect month. Rather than hiding out in airconditioned buildings we can again get outdoors and actually enjoy it. September is ideal for cleaning up your garden, transplanting perennials and making sure those pesky weeds are hauled out one last time. It is also perfect weather for bringing in your winter supply of wood. And as a side bonus to all these physical activities, you will feel healthier and stronger and maybe even lose a few of those summer pounds! (Fall baking may counterbalance that though, as apples and pumpkins in abundance lead to a plethora of pies, crisps, cookies and cakes.)

Fall is a beautiful season in this little corner of the world, and I look forward to the apple picking, the colourful leaves and even cozy sweaters and the first fire before long. Meantime, however, I will enjoy this transitional period between summer and fall to the hilt. I am doing my best to practice living in the moment, not in the future, and each day has much to enjoy and be thankful for. “I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house." ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne. 0001
