Following on from the last Ravings, here are more reasons why New Brunswick has a $100 million underground economy. Back in the day when I was doing furniture restoration, I still remember sending an PST check to Frank McKenna, and realized that Frank had just just taken more money out of MY business and MY hard work, than I did. This was twenty years ago but somethings just make a big impression. Full disclosure, despite my bitterness, my total underground tax avoidance would be somewhere in the range of $100, probably as a result of wanting to be a role model for the kids and not end up in jail!! Can you see now why it is possible for normally honest people to just say to heck with it and work underground. Really, small business people are like moles, you have to stay underground because there are too many predators if you show your face above ground. And those predators are our government in action, working hard to promote economic development while squeezing the hell out of little people trying to make a living. So would it be possible to have government advisors who would look at what you are doing. You could be honest because they cannot disclose the information to anyone. They can suggest what steps you should take to improve your business and move to an above ground position. After

three years, you either have a genuine aboveground business or you take your chances. I guess the key factor in defeating the underground is to somehow help new enterprises get through the hurdles and hoops of government red tape and be honest, rather than go underground from fear of the big bureaucracy One further point I would like to make is this. Is it a wise investment of our government resources to go after literally thousands of people in order to claw back that $100 million or would it be far more efficient to go after one or two wealthy families. An article by Diane Francis for the Financial Post two years ago states: “Another tax dodge pioneer was K.C. Irving of New Brunswick who in 1972 moved to taxfree Bermuda and placed ownership of his empire into a series of Bermudian trusts that have never paid taxes to Canada.” How much profit is made from free access to our crown lands and ends up in offshore companies?? If the big people are not paying a fair share of the tax burden, can one expect that little people will avoid using their own tax avoidance schemes. 0001

that surprises like this can happen to anyone! The biggest surprise I’ve ever experienced out fishing was out by Long Island in the Kennebecasis River ice fishing. My 4-year old son joined myself and group of friends ice fishing for hake. After several hours with only one small hake being caught by a friend, one of my tip ups finally fell over… a bite! We ran over and I felt some weight on the line, “My first hake” I thought. Much to everyone’s surprise, I pulled a 34 inch Dogfish Shark out through the hole! My son was ecstatic, as he had said just that week that he wanted to catch a shark! If only he would wish for a mermaid for our next time out! 0044
CHICK DAYS
HOURS:
There are days when you head out fishing that you can never predict what you may catch. This is one of the most unique and rewarding aspects of fishing here in Southern New Brunswick. With the diversity of aquatic life in our waters, you may plan to fish for one species, but end up catching something totally unexpected. Such was the case on a few outings for my friends and I over the past few years. Last fall, out on the kayak with a friend in the area known as ‘sturgeon alley’ on the Kennebecasis River, we had been fighting strong winds for much of the day as we fished for sturgeon. With a couple catches under our belt that day, Matt got a hit, and despite being solidly anchored, his kayak started to move behind the strength of the fish. Several minutes and more than a few
feet away from where he started, a very excited Matt finally brought a huge 41 inch striped bass into his lap! A few pictures later, the fish was safely released back to be caught another day. That was actually the second surprise catch for Matt that day as earlier he had actually caught and released the only Burbot I have ever heard of in the Kennebecasis River! Another day, in nearly the same exact spot, it looked like a similar encounter was about to happen. In the midst of a larger group of kayak fishermen, another good friend hooked into something heavy! For 45 minutes the struggle continued before eventually John decided, the fish just wasn’t going to give in. Risking the line snapping, John forced the line up to the surface, only to finally discover a bag of rocks on the end of his line! Sorry John, it is just too good a story not to write about! Truth be told, John’s caught more fish in his years than anyone else I know, so it just goes to prove

story is the exact same. That’s at least twice as many books you can buy every time you go to the bookstore. Since the books you’re buying are so cheap, it’s easy to take a gamble on a new author, or genre, or pick a book based only on the cover art, or spine. If you don’t like the book, lend it to a friend. Keep the books you cherish though, they don’t always come back. Pop into a thrift shop for the best deals, when you’re done picking out books check out what else they have.
your food will taste better and you’ll know exactly what’s in everything you eat. Buy a hardcover notebook or binder to keep your favourite recipes in; ten years from now you’ll have a personalized cookbook. Then, share your cookbook with your friends and host potlucks.

Where you go, go with all your heart. ~ Confucius
where life is going to take me, and that’s not a bad thing. The future is one hundred percent pure possibility. If it doesn’t break the laws of physic, it could potentially happen in the future, and that’s wonderful. So, with that piece of information, how certain are you that you know exactly how your life is going to play out. Don’t navigate your life by watching the path at your feet, you’ll miss it. Find your north star and start making tracks. Crawl if you have to. If you have a goal, and it really matters to you, crawl towards it if you have to. Life is going
to get in the way. One hundred million things are going to stand between you and your goal, and you’re going to walk over, or around, each one of them. But as long as you keep crawling you haven’t given up one day you’ll wake up and you’ll find out that you have made it. The Big Picture is painted with little brush strokes. Every day there are hundreds of opportunities to enjoy the little things. Whether it’s stopping to watch puffy white clouds float on the big blue sky or enjoying the morning’s first cup of coffee. The day is just packed full of little of moments to be happy

and thankful for. Too often we spend most of our time ‘looking forward’ to some event in the future, and we enjoy it before it happens. Look around, not forward. Not only will you enjoy your regular days more but you’ll enjoy the special days you used to look forward to more because you won’t be comparing it to what you thought it would be like. Maintain a good work/play balance. We talk about finding time like we’ve lost it. We haven’t lost anything, we have just filled it up. What we’re looking for is empty time to fill, and we come up short. Your job takes a bit, appointments take a bit more, grocery shopping steals an hour, and chores take a few more. I’ve priced it out, it’s cheaper to do laundry than it is to buy new clothes. Sometimes you’re just going to have to leave the dirty dishes on the counter and go for a hike, a swim or a video game tournament. The dishes will wait, life won’t.
you’re reading this thinking that it’s going to be smooth sailing for the rest of your life, then go drive around Saint John and try to dodge all the potholes. You are just going to hit some and there is nothing you can do about it. Now, I can’t tell you what might fix your potential problem, but I can tell you what won’t - wishing things were different. It is an utter waste of time; they aren’t different now, and unless you find a magic lamp, they never will be. Make a list of everything you have that can help you out of your situation and get to work. It may take awhile to accomplish, but it will take longer if you sit around watching your life in re-runs.

who would win? It’s a fifty-fifty chance. But what if you had a map and your friend didn’t. That’s not even a race anymore. You should win no problem; not only do you know where you’re going, you know how to get there. What a huge advantage! So, where’s your map? Undoubtedly you have some idea where you want your life to go, so how are you going to get there. Revisit your plan once in awhile. Change the destination if need be. There’s nothing wrong with that. Just know where you’re going and how you plan to get there. You don’t need to look very far these days to find people who have said stupid things on social media, be it facebook or twitter, and suffered from very real consequences. People lose their jobs over what they post on social media, they lose friends, and lovers. And it’s all avoidable. Be careful what you post, and be careful what you say, especially when you are angry. Words can’t be unsaid, and once it’s on the Internet it’s out of your hands. You likely know how easy it is to share a screenshot. Think before you post. Just because the price is low, doesn’t make it a deal. Buy the best you can afford, wait for sales if you have too.

than the price of buying the best once. He took care of his tools and he bought the best. This doesn’t just apply to tools. The better quality products are usually made better, out of more durable material, and they will last longer and perform better. Keep a journal, not a .doc or an .rtf either. Write it down on paper, make it your own. It doesn’t have to be a daily thing. Make it a highlights reel if you want to and only record your best moments, but do it. Be sporadic about it, draw in it, paste in newspaper clippings, record your life as you’re
living it. No one else is going to, and I’m willing to bet that in fifty years the journal will remember more about your life than you do. If I could go back, I’d journal more and start earlier in my life. Maybe in fifty years, when I’m old and armchair bound I’ll get a kick out of what ten year old me wrote down. Also, if you want it to last fifty years, buy a book that has acid free paper and use good pens. The one dollar ten packs fade over time and looseleaf will become more delicate than onion skin. There’s a thousand more things I could tell you, about everything I’ve learned about life in the past ten years, but I don’t have the page space, and you have to get out there and starting learning these things for yourself. However, I before I finish I’d like to stick in a few more short tips. Be kind, especially to the mean and the rude; you can’t put out a fire by throwing more fuel onto it. Be generous, when you can. You don’t have to say yes every time a cashier asks you donate a Toonie to charity, but you don’t have to say no every time either. Those donations really help people. The only thing you can’t get back is your time, spend it wisely. Don’t be wasteful, we only have one planet, and we still need to pass it on to the next generation, let’s not have to apologize for the state we leave it in. Good luck and work hard! ~ Caleb Burns

UNITED WAY COMMUNITY FUNDING The United Way Serving Saint John, Kings, and Charlotte announced funding of nearly $900 000 to 21 community projects earlier this year based on an initial 52 requests. As of May 4, charities or qualified organizations from Kings, Charlotte or Saint John Counties can submit a brief Letter of Intent to be considered for funding. The deadline to submit the Letter of Intent is July 1. Between now and July 1 the United Way will be offering information sessions throughout the region and will be available to offer guidance.
Last year the United Way received 52 applications and expects more this year. The United Way is eager to see great ideas from charities throughout the region with which we can partner to make a positive impact in our community. Applying for United Way funding is a 3-phased process. The Community Investment Advisory Committee, a team of volunteers who represent investors, individuals with non-profit and business expertise, review each phase and prepare recommendations to the United Way board of directors. The Letter of Intent is the first phase; agencies provide a high level description of the need in the community and proposed solution. The Committee reviews Letters of Intent and a shortlist of applicants is invited to the second phase, full application. The full application is loosely based on the “Lean Business Model Canvas” and is due end of September. The final phase is an interview with Committee members to determine the number of years and size of grant to be recommended. Charitable organizations or coalitions can apply for United Way funding at the following link: agency.e-cimpact.com/ login.aspx?org=147855. 3489

FAMILY MATTERS JUGGLING THE MULTIPLE HATS OF PARENTHOOD Being a parent today means juggling many hats. Sometimes the different roles come together smoothly; sometimes bringing it all together coherently takes more of an effort. When our roles pull our attention in different directions it can be difficult to focus ourselves on what is really important. Here are some guiding principles to consider when juggling becomes too much. Take Stock of All Your Hats. It really is quite remarkable how many different hats parents wear during the course of a day. Often we also wear different sets of hats for different children. We perform our roles not only because we have to do them but because they define us as parents and we see them as important activities for raising our children. However, when we decide to wear a hat we must accept that role
and everything that comes with it. For example, signing up to be a soccer coach will take time and energy! To manage our roles, we may need to think deeply about each of them and identify their importance to us and our family. Are Your Roles A Problem? As parents we can ask ourselves several questions to determine whether any of our roles interfere with family functioning and balanced parenting. Questions to ask include: Are you feeling stretched like a rubber band? Do your roles leave you exhausted? Stressed? Are you trying to fit too much into a day? Do you find yourself reluctantly putting in time by sitting on committees/activities? Is time for self/family compromised? Do you feel a loss of confidence or efficacy performing your roles? If the answers are yes there may be a need to reevaluate what and how many hats are being juggled and when. Find Strategies For Managing. When we juggle multiple roles, conflict is inevitable but we can prepare ourselves
by having strategies in place. Use energy conservation and role simplification whenever possible. Prioritize, plan, ask for help, and avoid roles that compete with your attention and concentration consistently. Integrate or separate roles if needed to save time and energy. Most importantly, it is ok to say no! When juggling all your many hats, it might be helpful to acknowledge that it isn’t going to be easy all the time. Keeping your expectations in check can be useful in limiting parental pressure. Enjoy the parenting journey this week and all its many hats. 0006

ASK THE CHEF OUTDOOR COOKING IN THE SUN Colin Sifton here from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your question. The sun has come out and the barbecues are on fire. It was such a long winter and spring, that as I drive through the neighbourhood all I can smell in the air is that familiar smell of the barbecue. When I think about when I was young, the act of barbecuing was so much different than what we have today. It was a long process of hibachi grills and briquettes, saturated in lighter fuel. You would have to let the briquettes get hot and white before you could start barbecuing. So what did we barbecue? Hamburgers and hotdogs is all I remember. You could see the occasional steak but for the most part it would be an hour just to have hamburgers and hot dogs. This is something that would never happen in today's fast paced society. In the 1980’s we were introduced to the propane barbecue and life sped up. You could have a hot grill in minutes instead of hours. This was great but the taste of the briquettes and lighter fuel was gone. With the introduction of the of the propane grill came a whole new menu. People started cooking more than just hamburgers and hotdogs, but using the outdoor grill to compliment the meal. We started having chicken, kabobs and vegetables all done on the grill. Suddenly mealtime became new and improved. So what I like to do on the barbecue
these days is grilled vegetables. It’s simple to do. Take whatever vegetables you like. I like to take peppers, mushrooms, sliced onions and zucchini or corn. Toss it in olive oil and salt and peppers and let it marinate for ten minutes. If you want, you can add your favourite herb or spice like basil or thyme. Place it on the grill and do not turn until you start seeing that the vegetables have grill marks. Once you think they are done enough, remove from the grill and serve. Another way to change up your regular barbecue is to turn it into a smoker. Get your favourite wood chip and soak them in water. Place the soaked wood chips in an aluminum pie plate, and place the pie plate on the grill. It will begin to smoke, turning your barbecue into a smoker. The longer you let it smoke, the stronger smoke flavour will be. I would suggest 10 to 15 minutes to start. After that, adjust as you feel necessary for your taste So what will you do different this summer with your barbecue? The season is so short and most of us put the barbecue away once the snow flies and the way our seasons have been going , it won’t be long, so make the most of this barbecue season before it is gone. 0040

DOLLARS & SENSE KIDS TODAY HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT MONEY At a recent event I was talking with a lady about what we do and she started telling me a story about how she learned to save. Her teacher, in partnership with the Credit Union, would have her students deposit their savings once a month at the school and would update their passbook. Sometimes it was a dime and sometimes it was a quarter this lady at the time was able to save, but nonetheless the excitement of savings was instilled and the understanding of finances began. A lot of these conversations end in, “kids today have no idea about money.” Fast forward decades and on April 15 was Talk with our Kids About Money Day. Many financial literacy service providers across Canada embraced this theme and headed out to spread the word and importance. We do have a program we deliver to elementary schools called The Grade 4 Read. In our Grade 4 program, we introduce savings and budgeting for the students to take home to their parents and talk about it. The students receive a goal setting exercise sheet and a piggy bank. The piggy bank makes the biggest impression and in the feedback we receive the students plan to use them. Why is the message so important? Some will say it’s an easy answer, debt is rising, incomes are stagnant and students these days just do not know enough about money; but is that the reason why? My answer may surprise you, it is no, those are not the reasons. Yes, in the big picture they all play a part, but the reality is it’s the society that needs the talk. We are always asked to provide presentations on how to talk to your kids about money, and we do, but what we call it is Modelling Financial Behaviour. The way we look at it is, have you ever had anyone try to tell you how to do something when they don’t do it themselves. If a parent does not budget, and uses credit frequently that is what a child sees and what we see tends to be what we emulate. It is important that finances become a conversation, like we would nutrition and we need increased awareness that our behaviours do not only affect our own pocketbook. When you stop for a moment and look at how we spend, it’s very much
on convenience. We stop for coffees, buy our water bottled and take our lunches from the freezer to the microwave. It is not just children who need to learn how to handle money. In an ideal world we would all have a budget with money for savings and only the occasional debt. Helping your child make financial decisions is a good way to start. If they are looking at going on a school trip, have them save
for half or give them a budget for their school snacks and have them weigh the decisions on what to buy with that budget. Having conversations about money will bring us all forward. 0005 Tamara Kelly Director of Education Credit Counselling Services of Atlantic Canada

LIVE WELL MOTIVATION: HOW TO CHANGE A HABIT Did you know that there is a reason or payoff for everything we do? With every decision we make, some need is being satisfied. If we’re in the grips of a bad habit or addictive behaviour, and want out of the vicious cycle, we need to search out and commit to the deeper reasons we want to change. Asking “what really motivates me in life?” can help us make the shift to more life-affirming habits. Questions that can motivate us to change might include, “what will really inspire me to stay on track?” or “why would I want to bother making this change in the first place?” What shows up in our life is often a reflection of what we put our focus on. Considering higher values or what drives us spiritually can not only provide us with relief, but also focus our attention on growth. We become
inspired naturally to make positive changes. What, specifically, can we focus on to help us get started? Generally, we consider there to be three main human motivators. These are: Freedom: The ability to direct our own paths and make our own decisions. Achievement/ Accomplishment: The inspired way we feel when we are improving in an area of personal importance. Purpose: Feeling that our life has meaning or that we are impacting our world, or a loved one. Which one of these motivators do you find yourself aiming for? Does it help you to remember that the actions you are taking towards breaking a bad habit will result in either a greater sense of freedom, accomplishment or purpose? There are also internal motivators, such as qualities or values of courage, patience, love and compassion to consider. What would you go to the wall for? What do you stand for?
Personal change is generally much easier when we evaluate what truly inspires us to act. Values and motivators can help us feel pulled forward to something better, as opposed to feeling like we are pushing a boulder uphill. Best of all, when you determine what could be most fulfilling for you in life, not only will you have the motivation to change and grow, but you’ll be a natural example of integrity and authenticity to others on this path. 0008

IN THE GARDEN MARCH WINDS APRIL SHOWERS BRING FORTH MAY FLOWERS... Well, if we pay that forward one month we are right on the money! The blooms this year have been magnificent… would we have enjoyed them quite so much without enduring the harshness of winter? Despite the slow start, we seem to be pretty well caught up with where Nature’s norm would have us and the abundant rainfall has ensured a need for at least a couple of mowings before June tapped at the window; however that wonderful rain will doubtless cause a great host of slugs to materialise and they need to be dealt with. Though there are products on the market that will deal with the beasties, many of them are not desirable due to chemical contents (we consume enough doubtful additives in our processed food that such use should be kept to an absolute minimum for the sake of our health and that of the
planet). So! What to do? One of the best methods is that of planting an abundance of any type of Marigold, they are not only strikingly bright and cheery but they act as a magnet to the slugs; a quick run around at dawn and dusk with a pot of salty water into which they can be dropped will have the problem solved within the week. Another beautiful system is to encourage the wildlife that dine on these demons… I’ve been blessed with a pair of Mallard ducks that visit regularly, scoffing the slugs and many other undesirables as they waddle around the garden, they also do a bit of weeding on the side. Crows can devour great quantities, as can frogs and toads; a small pond is a tremendous asset that will provide breeding places for frogs as well as a water source for the birds. With any luck the frogs will keep the mosquitoes in check, a small investment with great returns; arming yourself with a good sized salt shaker and gently lifting any rocks or garden ties during

the day will reveal slugs hiding places, a quick sprinkle and the game is up! In order to maintain the beauty of the garden, a very simple and enjoyable pursuit will work wonders; as the spring blossoms fade, they need to be cut off as close to the ground as possible, (the leaves should remain until they begin to turn brown since they feed the bulbs and insure even bigger and better blooms for the next season). Flowering shrubs can be pruned as soon as the flowers fade and Forsythia can be readily convinced to make more plants by simply laying a low growing branch along the ground and covering it with soil. By the end of the summer the resulting offspring can be transplanted to a new location; so much in life is free, enjoy Betty Kennett, the blessings. Resident Green Thumb 0038

POINT OF VIEW WORDS OF WISDOM Clearly, my invitation to address an audience of caps and gowns got lost in the mail. So, without further adieu, I'm seizing this opportunity to sow some words of wisdom on the Class of 2015. Graduates, if I could offer you one piece of advice for the future, smiling would be it. A simple smile doesn't cost a penny, but it's an easy way to boost your mood, feel better, be healthier and be viewed as more trustworthy and a better leader. As you go through life, you'll undoubtedly have moments when you're in a stressful situation or feeling down. You can let those moments harden you, or you can slap a grin on your face and work your way through it. With my own life experiences in mind, smile with me as I dispense some other advice. Travel. Experience as much of the world as you can. Life is too short to
not and then wish that you had. Smile, laugh and be pleasant – even to people who don't deserve it. Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, it's only with yourself. Respect your elders – one day you'll be one. Life is too short to be unhappy. Sing in the shower and dance in the rain. Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you feel ugly. Stay in touch with the people who matter to you. Never stop learning. More than 20 years after my last graduation, I'm back in the classroom and loving it. Treat others how you'd want to be treated. Vote. It's your democratic right, and your only voice to let elected officials know how you feel about important
issues. Floss. It's easier just to do it then face the guilt of admitting that you didn't. “That diploma you hold in your hands today is really just your learner’s permit for the rest of the drive through life. Remember, you don’t have to be smarter than the next person, all you have to do is be willing to work harder than the next person.” - Jimmy Iovine. 0032

SPRINGFIELD LSD RECREATION FUNDS To the residents of the Springfield Local Service District: The Belleisle Home & School Association receives and disburses on a yearly basis "the Springfield LSD Recreation Funds". Local residents and community groups within the Springfield LSD may apply for funding for recreation purposes only. Written applications, specifying how the funds would be used, must be postmarked no later than Friday, June 26, 2015 and mailed to: Patricia Bingham, Treasurer, Belleisle Home & School 3085 Route 124, Kars, NB, E5T 0A7. 3517
PICKEREL TOURNAMENT ON BELLEISLE BAY The 2nd Annual Pickerel Tournament on Belleisle Bay, being held on Saturday, June 20 from 8:00am to 1:00pm at the Hatfield Point Wharf, will give you a chance to hook and release pickerel which can be over a half metre long and weigh up to 2 kilograms. You can have a
fine morning with your family and win a nice cash prize with bragging rights. Belleisle Watershed Coalition sponsored the first pickerel derby last June. Bill Burns, a long time Hatfield Pointer spearheaded the day where over 30 entries made the rainy day fun. This year, the entry fees are $20 for adults, $10 for ages 11-18 and children 10 and under fish for free. Cash prizes for the biggest fish in three categories (must be registered by 8:00am on June 20 to be eligible for prizes). Sign up through message on Facebook at Belleisle Watershed Coalition and pay at the Wharf before 8:00am on day of the tournament. You may also sign-up in person in advance at the Hotel (2127 Rte 124 at the Wharf) on Thursday, June 18 or Friday, June 19 from 9:00am-8pm or from 7:00-8:00am Saturday, June 20. Fish any way you want – from a power boat, from a kayak, off the shore, off the Wharf – anywhere on Belleisle Bay. Weigh in and measuring begins at 1:00pm at Hatfield Point Wharf. JD Irving has given BWC permission to have cars, trucks or trailers parked in the JDI lot behind the graveyard. Bill Burns’ good idea is to have fun out there on the beautiful Bay and make some
money for the Watershed. This could become an annual thing and the money raised can help keep things in good shape around the Bay. For more information, contact email: bbwatch124@gmail.com or call 485 0889. 3534

GOT MILKWEED? Every year thousands of Monarch butterflies set off a long journey North from the hilly forests of Mexico where they’ve stayed for the winter. Over the course of the Summer three to four generations of Monarch butterflies will fly various legs of the journeys over the United States and up to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Wherever the Monarchs stop they must find Milkweed plants to feed on and reproduce. Milkweed is a native New Brunswick plant but over the past few decades it has been considered a weed, and has been cleared away from backyards and roadsides alike. This has caused the already endangered Monarch to have a difficult time finding the plant it needs to reproduce when it gets to New Brunswick. Recently though, Milkweed plants have been donated to the towns of Quispamsis, Rothesay, Hampton, and the city of Saint John to try and help restore the Milkweed plant in Southern New Brunswick. If you would like to help the Monarch butterflies be able to make their trip back
Monarch’s’ life-cycle depends on Milkweed Photo by Bev England to Mexico, you can plant Milkweed in your own backyard to help the Monarchs. Swamp Milkweed is a non-invasive (unlike the Common Milkweed) and requires slightly damp soil and full sun.
You can find Swamp Milkweed at Halifax Seed and other garden centres. With a few milkweed plants around your house you may soon spot some Monarch Butterflies fluttering around your backyard. 3529

CHIMNEY SWIFT NUMBERS HIGH IN SUSSEX Perhaps you are wondering how the Swifts are doing since the report of our first sighting in May. Official Swift Counts were completed on May 20, 24, 28 and June 1 with counts between 130 (rainy evening) and 468 birds entering the roost chimney at 119 St. George Street by Swiftwatch volunteers. Quite impressive numbers! Even though many birds have gone to individual chimneys for nesting, there are still many using the roost chimney. You can still witness this incredible sight any clear evening at dusk, if you watch from across the street. Just remember that this is a residential neighborhood and please be respectful of property and sound levels. At our home on Church Avenue we are delighted to have a family of Chimney Swifts back using our chimney, and as they build their annual little cupshaped nest, they are in and out of our chimney often. If we are close to our flu, we can hear the sound of wings as they enter and the occasional chirp, and we know that when the babies hatch and learn to fly inside the
28
The Sussex Herald
Swifts coming to roost for night chimney, we may hear more noises. We are happy to welcome our annual winged visitors whom we know will keep the number of mosquitos down
as these little birds fly all day eating pesky flying insects. If you have an open brick and unlined chimney on your home, or if your neighbor across the street or next door does, you can help the chimney swifts by watching for any activity and reporting it. Homeowners who may have this threatened bird species using their chimney need to be given the information we have available, to help them keep the swifts coming back. So, if you think you have seen a bird entering any chimney in the Sussex area, we would certainly appreciate hearing from you. Just phone 433-4439 and leave a message and someone will follow up. Maritimes Swiftwatch is also trying to locate populations of Swallows, as their numbers have declined greatly the past number of years. If you have a healthy number, you can also leave a message regarding this and it will be passed on to the staff at bird studies Canada, who are working on this species. Judy Stockdale-Dow 3543
MUSINGS WON’T MISS EVERYTHING As we look ahead into transitioning from owners of Ossekeag to a life after Ossekeag, there are many many things I will miss. There is, however, one thing I will definitely NOT miss even a little bit. Along with approximately 75% of the population I suffer from “speech anxiety”, in other words, I dislike public speaking. Being at the head of a very public (locally at least) business, I get called upon occasionally for various speaking engagements. While it has grown less painful over the years, it has never become something I look forward to doing. Mike and I recently did a radio interview with Hance Colburne of CBC Information Morning. Given that it was a CBC Radio interview with the previous owner that got us into this business, it seemed appropriate to bracket our years
with Ossekeag with a similar “exiting” (almost) interview. Fifteen years ago we had the opportunity to do an interview as the new owners, but at that time it was Mike alone who travelled to Saint John to be heard. I was much too “busy” (read, chicken). So in fifteen years I have grown, as this time I went along and even spoke! Actually, it went very easily, Hance being a great host. Also the fact it was being taped, not heard live, was a calming factor. It has never surprised me that I have this discomfort with public speaking, as I am strongly introverted. Obviously however, if 75% of the population suffers the same as I do, and (depending on what studies you believe) only 2550% of the population is introverted, simple math will tell you that a lot of extroverts are also suffering from “speech anxiety”. I never realized that. Somehow everyone else always seemed so confident and totally comfortable in the limelight.
I never expect to make my living as a public speaker, comedian or motivational speaker, but I am happy to realize that as I have aged I have grown more comfortable with speaking to a group or even to a microphone. “According to most studies, people's number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.” ~ Jerry Seinfeld. 0002
