Well, tomorrow morning we head off for a traditional short family vacation with one daughter and granddaughter. You know, the one I keep telling her... she just isn’t that grand!! I think, she does enjoy my teasing. At least I hope so ‘cause she sure gets a lot of it!! So, four days and three nights on PEI for this year and I certainly don’t mind doing it for the Kid, but I do have a problem with the whole idea of vacation. Like... why would I escape from doing what I want to do. If I wasn’t enjoying myself, I would do something different. They say a change is as good as a rest, but I don’t need a rest... I want to get that darn bridge finished... about 20 more tractor buckets of rocks. Sure, I occasionally take a day off, especially if the weather is hot and humid, but I don’t need to get away. I like it where I am. I’m surrounded out in the woods with interesting and stimulating company. And the deer are always upbeat and friendly. Our commercial wood harvest is officially underway, starting this morning and likely going for several

weeks. My hope is that this clearing out of the junk wood may be the last large scale cutting that the property needs. I’ll be keeping a watch over what is happening over the next 20 to 40 years and evaluate as we go along. What?? So... you don’t think I can last another 40 years?? Hah!! Why, I still haven’t even grown up yet!! Maturity is at least 40 years away. Don’t believe me?? When The Kid and I get to Shining Waters, we will board the pirate ship, engage the pirates in a nasty battle and escape by sliding down the long shute. I mean... being a kid is just so much darn fun, why would anyone want to grow up. So while YOU are remembering fondly your childhood... I’m still l i v i n g mine!! 0002

TALES FROM THE CAMERA BAG A JOURNEY OF SELF DISCOVERY AND LEARNING It is 3:30am and I was contemplating a conversation I had earlier with a friend regarding art and photography i.e. can some photographs be considered art. This got me to thinking about my journey into photography. Remembering back to my first camera I did all kinds of research, looked at tons of images and imagined I was in those exotic locations. My prints were perfect, even though that landscape shot was overexposed and the clouds blown out. I did not notice that uncle Jack was in the image, changing a flat tire or Aunt Bee had a telephone pole growing from her head. With a gentle poke and sometimes a not so gentle nudge, I started to scan the perimeter of my viewfinder to see if there were any unwanted items in the frame. In fact, I came to realize that less is more and that the more simple the image the more pleasing it was. “A” is for not Awesome and “P” is not for Professional, getting off these auto settings was my next challenge. Setting the aperture so that everything in my landscape was in focus or when taking a portrait controlling it so that a dreamy out of focus bokeh was created when taking a portrait was next. I am loving it, I am creating images not just taking them. Buying a filter and slowing down my shutter speed allowed me to create wonderful images of silky smooth oceans among the jagged rocks. We often don’t need a new camera, we just need to learn more about the camera we have and with that I have
to admit (most men would not) that I read the manual for my camera. It was then that I realized how dumb I was. That camera was “WAY” smarter than I was/am. What is next in my evolution? Emotion and feelings. After a while anyone can take a reasonable image, it is so easy with today's cameras and I can see this during our camera club meetings. We would all gather at a location and all get similar images. But, the ones that stand out are the ones that saw things differently by either changing their perspective, or slowing their shutter speed to capture the flowing wheat field waving in the wind and capturing motion. Those who captured that blissful happy emotion of the fly fisher as he casts his line. These photographers, who can capture these emotions, are the ones who bring their images from good to great.

IN THE GARDEN TREES AND BLOOMS He plants trees to benefit another generation. ~ Caecilius Statius. A fine and noble statement and with many of our Garden centres offering great prices on an assortment of trees it’s to be hoped that folk will be moved to enhance their gardens and air quality by planting some. However, sound common sense needs to be used in purchasing; even the professional landscape chaps frequently plant young Maples, Oaks, Lindens and the like in spots where they haven’t a hope in Hades of reaching their full potential. Many plantings are ultimately felled because they threaten roofs, basements and buildings. So the first order of the day is to affirm what space the full grown tree needs to avoid such calamities; I planted a 12” Oak seedling 34 years ago and it’s been like watching a miracle unfold to observe it grow into a magnificent shade tree, home to assorted lifeforms, a limb to attach a swing to and a welcome spot to place a
garden seat on a hot day. Since an Oak can live to be 200 years it’s safe to say that my chap will afford pleasure to many generations long after I cease to sit in its shade. When you get the tree home, a couple of days in a tub of water will refresh it while you dig a hole twice as wide as the pot or root ball and slightly deeper than is needed for the tree to be at the same level in the ground as it occupied in the pot or the top of the root ball. A mixture of good topsoil, compost and bone meal should be placed in the bottom of the hole and a careful tweaking of the roots to loosen them up should be done before planting, more of the mixture is needed to fill the hole leaving a slight trench around it for holding the daily watering. Four support posts should be placed evenly around it and a pliable, strong, soft, fabric like strapping arranged to support it until it is well established. You may need a little fencing for the first few years to protect
it from the jaws of the white tails and friends. On to something easier! We are blessed with an abundance of colourful Day Lilies, such that, with careful choice of types, we can enjoy their beauty until frost comes our way; but, but only if we deadhead on a daily basis. The blossoms only last a day, but unless the spent blooms are snapped off, many of the emerging buds will never bloom; dead wet flowers soak up the water and frequently rot the bloom in waiting, this is true of pretty well all flowers. The act of deadheading is truly satisfying, affording the opportunity to enjoy the bounty with little physical effort. Blessings. 0045 Betty Kennett, Resident Green Thumb

MOTORCYCLE RALLY FOR WISH FOUNDATION
Nursing Homes I passed by her room and I heard her pray “Please God, make me a little child just for today” And then there was that new man Jim “I miss my cat Tommy but they said they’d take good care of him. Mrs. Quinn spent so much time alone but said “Her family was so far from home” Esther with her great ball of yarn repeating always how she missed the farm May told us she had met a man who was a honey but said he ran a pyramid scheme and took all her money Mr. Frank sat by the window watching every car “They took away my permit even though I said I wouldn’t drive far” There was a lot more I do recall but it would take a book to mention them all It was awhile ago that I worked there but I recall every face many a-day I troubled in silence why most weren’t in their children’s place

WELL RESTED BEAT THE HEAT IN BED! Summertime is here at last and although the longer days and upcoming vacations are welcome, those “hot summer nights” can make sleep a difficult task. Here are some of my top tips to make sure you beat the heat and get the rest that you need to enjoy this great NB weather! Put the PJ's away, dress nice and light. Just a cotton t shirt or underwear are enough. Silky or polyester fabrics don't breathe and will make you a sweaty mess when trying to sleep. Use a summer duvet. Although the winter months require some insulation, you'll want to let that heat out in the summer. Many people like the weight of a duvet, but not the heat. So choose a different topper in the summer. Keep hydrated.This is a great tip in any situation. Your body needs water in order to cool itself off, so drink lots through the day and keep a glass of ice water by the bed to lower your core temperature in a jiffy!
Open windows. Use air conditioning and a fanwhen the sun goes down, the air cools off. Open that window and let the breeze in. Help it along with a fan, and the white noise might be an added bonus to cut the noise from outside. The best options are adding an air conditioner or a heat pump to keep your room nice and cool. Move to the basement.Heat rises and so lower floors are much cooler. Sleeping on a lower floor in the summer may give you much better quality sleep. Close curtains during the day. This is a trick my mum swears by and her house is always nice and cool. Having dark curtains or blinds will block those rays that heat up the air and the furniture in your house that will release heat at night. If not through the whole house, at least use this trick in the bedroom. Use an ice pack.Wrap a towel around an ice pack or frozen bottle of water and use it like a hot water bottle, but in reverse!
Create your own cooling spray. If things just get too hot to handle, keep a spray bottle of ice cold water next to your bed for a refreshing spritz during the night. Take a lukewarm shower before bed. Although the colder water might feel nice, your body will attempt to warm you up afterwards by increasing your temperature, totally defeating the purpose. Use lukewarm water to lower your temperature just slightly with the risk of your body kicking into overdrive afterwards. Try these tips to get a better sleep so that you are well rested to enjoy these beautiful summer days! 0038 Angie Cummings, BSc RRT, Sussex Sleep Clinic

LOCAL KARATE STUDENT OFF TO CHAMPIONSHIPS
Alexander Cumming ready to represent Team Karate Canada Alexander Cumming of Quispamsis (son of Michael and Jeannine) has been selected to represent Team Karate Canada at the upcoming 2016 Pan American Karate Federation Junior & Cadet Championships in Guayaquil, Ecuador in late August. He will be the only New
Brunswick'er on the junior national team for this trip after becoming eligible with his bronze medal finish at the Karate Canada Nationals in Richmond, BC in January in the kumite under 50 kilogram Youth Division (12-13), attending Atlantic regional training camps, and final team contingent selections held at the Karate Canada Junior National Training Camp in Toronto a few weeks ago. Alexander has been training in karate under Sensei Robert McInnes and Sensei Neil Pond at KV Karate since 2011. He competes throughout the Maritime region on a regular basis, has attended Nationals twice in Richmond and also participated in the Montreal International Open this past May. His most recent competition was at the 2016 World Chito-Ryu Bogu Cup Karate Championships held at Rothesay Netherwood School from August 4-7 where he achieved a first, second and third place finish in various events. There were over 100 Chito-Ryu athletes at this event including some from as far away as Alberta. Excitement in the global karate community is now at an all time high with the announcement that karate will be included in the 2020 Olympics!

ASK THE CHEF LOVE IT OR HATE IT - BROCCOLI Colin Sifton here again, from Holly’s Restaurant and Catering with another answer to your questions. You either love it or hate it but we have all had broccoli. It is a very common vegetable in these parts. It needs cooler temperatures for growing and we definitely live in one of the climates. Now where does it come from? Broccoli was first used in Italy in the 6th century and is a flowering green vegetable which comes from the cabbage family. Many vegetables fall into the cabbage family - Bok choy, cauliflower, brussel sprouts and many others. They all taste and look very different but they all fall under the Cruciferae family. Cruciferae comes from the latin word for cross and it started with flower from a mustard plant; looked like a cross. Broccoli comes in many different forms, depending on where you live, but nowadays broccoli, which we know, is grown all over the world and surprise, surprise, China produces the most
broccoli in the world. The broccoli you find in most grocery stores is Calabrese broccoli. Remember, this all started in Italy so no surprise about the name. Now there are many others like Gai-Lan, which is known to be long thin stocks and a mix between mustard flavour and broccoli flavour. Cook it like you would asparagus. Broccoli Rabe is is similar to Gai-lan with a different flower. This is also known as Rapini. Broccolini taste similar to Calabrese but looks similar to the other two mentioned. Because most vegetables today are a cross between two different plants, it is no surprise that someone came up with broccoflower. You guessed it broccoli and cauliflower mix; similar density to cauliflower with a closer flavour to broccoli and a lime green appearance. Broccoli is one of those vegetables which is better than most for our body and the functions of our body. Broccoli has a strong and positive affect on our

detoxification system as long as it is cooked properly. Broccoli should be steamed, not boiled and should be still crisp when cooked, not turned to mush. Every time you overcook vegetables, all you are getting is small amounts of vitamins and fibre. All we know about healthy eating today and if we are going to go through the process of eating vegetables, shouldn’t we do it right and get as much value out of it as possible? The prices of all vegetables just keep climbing, so don’t waste the value in your vegetables just because that is how you have always done it. Take the time to learn how to do it properly. 0040

MORE THAN FITNESS HYDRATED AND HAPPY As we enjoy this beautiful summer weather it is really important to stay well hydrated. While this is very important all year round, it becomes even more so as we spend more time outdoors in hot temperatures. We hear all the time that we need to drink lots of fluids, but what you may not know is that the human body is made up of 60% water! Next to air, water is the second most important factor to human life. While humans can survive for weeks without food, if you found yourself in the desert without water, a few days would be all that you could survive. Not only 3.55 doesx4.78 water inches serve to keep us hydrated, it also aids in temperature regulation of the body, acts as a lubricant in the joints and a transportation system carrying nutrients and removing waste. Getting enough water in the run of a day is one of the toughest things for many; many people somewhat dehydrated without even realizing it. By the time
you feel thirsty, your hydration level is already getting low. Some of the signs that you might not be drinking enough water include: headaches, fatigue, light headedness, muscle cramping and irritability to name just a few. So how can you ensure that you are getting enough fluids to meet your body’s needs especially given the hotter temperatures? Carry a water bottle with you at all times and sip throughout the day. If you are taking part in physical activity, be sure to increase your fluid intake based on your exertion level – the harder you are working, the more water you need. The same applies to being out in the sun. As our body temperature heats up, we need to be drinking more. For long walks or extended periods of activity, pack enough water to get you through. If you have trouble getting in enough water throughout the day, measure out a pitcher of water in the morning and
River Cruise Event!
PARTS
be sure to empty it by day’s end. At first, you may end up drinking a lot of water in the evenings as you realize you have not taken in enough throughout the day but gradually, you will find it easier to get the needed water in at regular intervals. You can also take in some of the water needed in the foods you eat. Some foods such as watermelon and lettuce have high water content. A nice slice of watermelon makes a nice treat and helps to keep you cool and hydrated! By planning ahead and keeping water on hand, you will avoid situations where you end up feeling dehydrated. Enjoy your summer activities by staying hydrated and happy! Edited for space see full article at: ossekeag.ca. Jennifer Gendron

CELEBRATION OF HISTORY THROUGH ART & MUSIC The historic hamlet of Hatfield Point will be offering views into its past through an exhibition of 30 watercolour paintings of local landmarks, and walking tours telling the story of Hatfield Point from 1783 onward. The event is sure to be one of historical and artistic significance, of interest to locals, history buffs, and tourists. You will enjoy seeing familiar landmarks and views through the eyes of Columbia trained Henrietta Fernstrom, whose many summers on the Belleisle were an opportunity to capture her favourite locations in paint. This is a unique opportunity to see some buildings now gone forever, restored in beautiful colour. The art will be on display Friday, August 26: 2:00-7:00pm; Saturday, August 27 11:00am-5:00pm, on loan from the estate of the painter. The Hatfield Point Baptist Church Hall will be the focal point of the exhibition, complete with tea and sandwiches, from which you may join a guided
Former Short’s store & residence tour, hosted by the Bayview Cemetery, of the heart of Hatfield Point, with stories and facts on the points of historic interest. Guided tours depart from the Church Hall Friday at 2:30 and 4:00pm; Saturday 1:00pm. Easy strolling, 25 minutes.
Rounding out the entertainment, SWIG, the Maritime Celtic band from Nova Scotia will be providing music from 7:00-9:00pm. Admission to the show and tours by donation to benefit Belleisle Watershed and Bayview Cemetery. 4193

GETTING READY FOR BACK TO SCHOOL As the lazy days of summer start to wind down and the start of the new school year looms in the near future, now is the time to put some pieces in place to ease into school days this fall. A few adjustments to the daily routine can have a big payback when school starts! September 6th is the first day of school for most local students, although there are some “staggered
entries” for children starting at a new school. It is suggested that 2 weeks prior to that date you start the process of adjusting sleep and wake times to closely imitate that which will be required when class begins. It is pretty normal to find that sleep and wake times have become a mite lax over the summer. Rather than risk a tired grumpy child the first days of school, it is preferable to start the transition
to school hours early. This allows for small adjustments over several days rather than one rude shock! Take time to talk to your child about any worries or fears they may have about school. They will have a new teacher, new classmates, perhaps a new school. Are they worried about the kid who bullied them last year or whether there will problems on the bus? Emphasize the positive experiences they will have without disregarding their concerns. The most important thing is they know you will listen and work through any issues with them. Organize ahead for the first day of school. Ensure there is a spot for homework and a “launch pad” where everything needed for the morning will be stored. Decide ahead what to wear, take for lunch, what needs to be taken. Check the school district website for any changes to the bus schedule or route or practice the walk to school if it is a new school or new experience. And the final word of advice? Set out the sneakers they are going to wear by the door the night before so there is no mad scramble in the morning looking in closets and under the couch for a matching pair!

DIRECTOR’S NOTES IMPERIAL VOLUNTEERS No matter how you arrive at the Imperial, whether through the big doors in front or the slightly hidden stage door in back, the first person you encounter will probably be one of our volunteers. This doughty crew of nearly 100 men and women makes sure that performers and audiences alike are well cared for at every one of our nearly 200 annual events. Amongst this gallant band you will find retired teachers and nurses, current high school and college students, librarians and fashionistas. We have volunteers who’ve been with us since the doors opened, five of whom have clocked over 1500 volunteer calls. Given that an average volunteer call lasts five hours, these ladies (all ladies so far) have contributed 7500 hours to providing art and entertainment to their community. Frankly, these folks amaze me. What does it take to be an Imperial volunteer? A lot more than a white shirt and black pants, that’s for sure. These
folks have to be prepared for situations ranging from a lost child to lost tickets, maintain their calm and sense of humour even when others lose theirs, and keep their heads bobbing and eyes peeled for issues arising in a darkened room where everyone else is focussed on the stage. In my time at the theatre I’ve seen volunteers sew up ripped seams for travelling musicians, wait for taxis with folks who locked their keys in the car and shepherd children by the hundreds through dance recitals. As well as our operational volunteers, we have a volunteer board that keeps this non-profit organization humming along like the well-ordered machine it is. Drawn from all of the Greater Saint John region, the Imperial Theatre board has teachers and health care workers, accountants and retirees, united in their love of the arts. We also have a lot of fun. Our volunteers throw fantastic potlucks, enjoy social events and outings, and receive free
tickets so they can see at least a few shows every year. (One of the most common misconceptions is that people volunteer to see shows for free. Volunteers are working - sometimes in the theatre and sometimes elsewhere.) For the special few who reach that 1500 mark, there is equally special recognition. Every year we search out new comrades to join this amazing group. New operational volunteers submit applications (available on the website or at the box office) and receive thorough training before the new season starts. New board members are identified throughout the year, and brought on as their particular skills are needed. Sound interesting? We’d love to hear from you. 0030 Lee Bolton

MUSINGS WHO ARE YOU? Any fans of the original CSI? Remember the theme song? For many who are searching for their ancestral roots, the chorus is a constant echo in the back of the head. Tracking down who begat who is just the first step to gaining a grasp of who and where we came from. Fortunately for us, the plethora of information available on the internet has made this information so much more accessible than a few years ago. Over the past few months I have enjoyed hunting down ancestors on both my maternal and paternal sides and was surprised to discover that both sides of the family came here from Ireland rather than Scotland or England. Michael of course refuses to believe I could be of Irish ancestry, being far to “stick-in-the-mud” to be Irish! No doubt if I keep digging further back I will find the families came to Ireland from England and Scotland, but I have not made it that far back as yet. I have however found one ancestor who came over to North American as a member of the Black
Watch and fought in the American Revolutionary War and another who came to New Brunswick from New England as a Loyalist. I have heard genealogical research likened to a giant crossword or a jigsaw puzzle. Since I do love to research and dig out facts, it is no wonder this appeals to me. But as part of the search you find yourself learning a whole lot about history and social conditions and reasons for immigration and, well you get the picture. What starts out as a simple search for one’s roots can morph into a much broader project that really has no finite boundaries. You can continue for as long and as far you you wish. If you are interested in starting the hunt for your own ancestors, the New Brunswick Provincial Archives has a great website to begin (if your immediate ancestors are from NB that is). From there you can then wander the globe using sites such as ancestry. com or myheritage.com. Some sites want you to buy a membership, but there is much to be had for free.
Certainly plenty to get you started so you can then decide if a membership is worthwhile. Happy hunting! “Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) 'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) ~Pete Townshend. 0001
