Five historic homes on display in Merrickville House and Garden Tour July 13 By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca
EMC Events – Take a peek inside some of Merrickville’s most historic homes and lush gardens Saturday, July 13 when the eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour returns. The tour, once again being presented by Holy Trinity Anglican Church, runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and this year visitors will be invited into five of the village’s lovely homes. “The lineup this year is unbelievable,” remarked tour organizer Linda Nash. “I cannot believe how lucky I was this year.” According to Nash, all five of the homes on the tour are heritage and accompanying each are “magnificent gardens.” “The whole tour is like a step back in time,” she noted. Due to the fact that each home also has a garden to explore, Nash indicated she didn’t seek out separate gardens. “It’s going to take people all day to see these houses. They’re so interesting,” she commented. Included in that list is Merrickville’s historic Manor House at 905 St. Lawrence St. Owned by David Luxton and Laura Brown, this regal stone home’s claim to fame is that it was owned by the Mirick family, founders of Merrickville, in 1844 and is known as the Harry McLean House by locals. “Current owners David, is the chairman of the Tulip Festival in Ottawa and Laura is a sculptor and artist,” Nash explained. The three-storey structure was completely renovated in 2012. “They left no stone unturned for redoing this house,” she said. “It’s been totally revamped from the first to the third floor.” An example of Georgian architecture, one of the home’s most unique features is winding staircase that leads to a ‘Romeo and Juliet’ style gallery at the top. It is decorated extage Drive) looks out on the banks clusively in fine art and antiques. “I’m so excited (to have this on of the Rideau River and was built by the tour),” Nash stated. “You could John Chester in 1824.

The eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour is set to unfold Saturday, July 13. This year, five heritage homes and their gardens are on the schedule, including historic Manor House, above. Located at 905 St. Lawrence St., this home was owned by the Mirick family, the founders of Merrickville. Another home to be featured on the tour is the Molloy home, a two-storey Victorian abode at 105 Water St.
view of the river,” Nash said. “It’s another great example of late Georgian buildings in Ontario.” The tour will also take visitors to 105 Lewis St., the Jane Tynsdale House, which was constructed in 1861. It is a two-storey limestone house but was built to look like a storey and a half. “The reason for that is that taxes were higher on a two-storey back then,” Nash stated. “People hesitated at wanting to pay higher taxes, so they made homes like that.” The Tynsdale home has also been lovingly restored and boasts original floors. The windows and roof trim reflect the time period in which it was built. Mirick Home, owned by Joelle Schmid and Nick Previsich is an example of Edwardian architecture, with red and yellow brick detailing. “It’s been renovated with a combination of modern and classic interior design with modern and contemporary pieces mixed with fabulous antiques,” Nash commented. The wraparound veranda and expansive garden are other features. “My jaw dropped when I walked into this house. I love it,” she said. The final home included in the tour is the Molloy Home (105 Water St.), owned by Shirley and Timothy Molloy. This two-storey Victorian home was constructed in 1890 and bears wide porches and gingerbread trim indicative of the time period. It was featured on the tour four years ago and is back by popular demand. “There are only a few houses in Ontario like this and it is split in the middle so you can enter the home from both sides of the veranda,” Nash remarked. “It has two stairways, one at the front and one at the back.” Packed with early Canadian and Victorian antiques, Nash said the property has won several awards for its gardens as well.

SAFETY TIPS Oil Lamps: Oil lamps or lanterns provide excellent light but can be a fire hazard if placed too close to combustibles. Keep oil lamps away from combustibles and out of the wind. Make sure they are kept in a secure place where they cannot be knocked over. Refill the lamps outdoors or away from combustibles and other people.

EMC Events – Potty Rocking in the Park, an outdoor family music festival, was held in Carleton Place’s Riverside Park on June 22.

COMMENTARY Be alert on roads, waterways this Canada Day
EMC Editorial – It’s been heralded as the official start to summer, but don’t cloud your summer before it begins with poor driving habits. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) recently announced they will be cracking down on aggressive driving this Canada Day long weekend on roads, trails and waterways across the province. So if you are someone who is impatient or angry while driving or who tends to display colourful vocabulary while behind the wheel, listen up. Photo by Aggressive driving doesn’t just mean speeding, which KATHY BOTHAM could be considered one of the most common faults among drivers, but also following vehicles too closely, making improper lane changes, weaving in and out of lanes and having a general disregard for the rules of the road and waterways, will be targeted. Don’t think if you aren’t an aggressive driver that the OPP won’t be on the lookout for other poor driving habits. They will also be watching for impaired and distracted driving seatbelts, as well as ensuring you have personal flotation devices on board when boating. the dump or a garbage can. According to the OPP, the public awareness campaigns I find this very disheartening and sad to see we are so fortunate to live in such a lovely scenic area that is fast becoming an eye- they have been undertaking are making a difference. At this time last year, there were 173 fatalities on roads, wasore littered with garbage. Please make an effort to take your garbage with you, dispose terways and trails, while that number is down to 110 this of it properly and leave our beautiful rural roads the way I enjoy year. Perhaps that shows that people are taking the law and their own lives seriously. seeing them, litter free. Thank you. We all have some bad driving habits we’d like to get Fran Bryerton rid of and being forced to make a change might not be a Almonte bad thing.
LE T TER TO THE EDITOR
Stop dumping trash on our rural roads DEAR EDITOR: I have noticed recently that our beautiful rural roads have become dumping grounds for almost any type of trash. I have seen mattresses, appliances, old tires, tons of discarded fast food wrappers, plastic bottles, cans, coffee cups and pretty much anything you can imagine just left or tossed on the side of the road. It seems that people just pull over, have lunch and then just drive away leaving all of their garbage behind. The litterbugs responsible for tossing trash know who you are and maybe it is time to dispose of these items at a proper designated area such as

EMC News – Dozens gathered at the Carleton Place Community Labyrinth, next to the Carleton Place & Beckwith Heritage Museum, for a Walk in Peace. Organized by the labyrinth committee, the event included a picnic in the gardens, presentations on peace, a singing bowl meditation demonstration, as well as a walk around the labyrinth. Left, retired teacher and artist Claudia Baker spoke about peace within and read passages from the works of Thich Nhat Hanh, a Vietnamese Zen Buddhist monk. Above, Peggy Edwards was another guest speaker during the Walk in Peace. She spoke to those gathered about global peace. Top, the event was capped off with a walk around the labyrinth.

We’re having a heat wave...
E
MC Editorial -Some hate the humidity, some revel in it, but whichever side you’re on, summer is officially here and along with it, those muggy temperatures. Lanark County is in the midst of its first heat alert of the summer season, which began a few short days ago on June 21. Due to temperatures expected to reach the high thirties (which could feel like over 40 degrees with the Humidex), the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit issued a heat alert on Monday, June 24. Summer is a favourite season of many, but the heat and humidity that often goes along with it is nothing to take lightly. According to the health unit, this dangerous mix can cause dehydration, heat stroke, heat exhaustion and even in some cases, death. While everyone is at risk, it is particularly the elderly, those with chronic illnesses or on specific medications, infants and preschool children, as well as those who work outdoors or participate in physical activity for long periods of time, that are particularly susceptible. During these heat waves, it’s important to be better safe than sorry and exercise common sense. You wouldn’t want to spend hours out in the scorching heat, so don’t leave your children or pets parking in cars or sleeping outside in the direct sunlight. There have been too many cases of infants or dogs being left in vehicles, just so their parent or owner could zip into the mall to get that item they desperately needed. In some instances, the errand isn’t such a quick one and can have a fatal
E
outcome. It’s selfish and thoughtless and people should know better. In temperatures such as the ones we’re facing this week, it doesn’t take long for one lapse in judgment to have tragic effects. Although the health unit recommends staying indoors with the drapes shut and keeping lights turned down low, if you have no choice but to be outside, make sure regular breaks are taken in the shade and drink plenty of water and fruit juices throughout the day. Don’t drink liquids too fast, sip them often throughout the day. Try to avoid alcoholic beverages, cola and coffee and stick to consuming foods with high water content to avoid dehydration. This includes fruit such as oranges, grapes and watermelon. Remember to wear loose fitting and light clothing and always have a hat on hand to block out the sun’s harmful rays. Don’t forget that SPF either. If you have access to air conditioning, use it. If it is unavailable, maintaining low energy activities, visiting public facilities with air conditioning (malls and libraries), relaxing at a pool, or taking periodic cool baths and using wet towels to beat the heat. Fans should be used in the evening to draw in cool air, but the health unit advises against using them as primary cooling devices. Avoiding using ovens and other appliances, such as dryers, can also help keep your home cooler. If you do find yourself experiencing symptoms like nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty breathing, severe headaches or confusion, fever or convulsion, get to a hospital as soon as possible.
The Farmwife learns the challenges of dealing with ailing cats
MC Lifestyle - I was sitting at The Branch Restaurant the other night after work, having a rather high-brow conversation about the etymology of certain well-used phrases in common English. Sayings that we use while having no idea what they mean or where they DIANA FISHER came from. For example, “rule of thumb.” I was most shocked to discover them. George (at The Branch, the other that this saying, which we use as a night) explained that “don’t look a gift sort of measurement of logic, comes horse in the mouth” refers to the pracfrom the rule that it was okay for a man to beat his wife with a stick if said tice of checking a horse’s teeth when stick was smaller than the width of his you buy it. If the horse is a gift, don’t thumb. When I taught English to busi- check the teeth. Much like assessing ness professionals in Asia, they wanted the value of a gift in front of the giver, explanations for the slang that they saw that’s just rude. It’s a gift. Just take it, in emails from their Western associates with gratitude. George also explained overseas. I had to look them up before the saying “cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey.” It has explaining them, of course. a rather bold connotation (especially We know how to use these sayings when voiced by someone like my Dad) (in most cases), but we don’t always know what they mean. I had to explain but what it really refers to is the ‘brass a cash cow and putting the cart before monkey’ that held the cannon balls on the horse, as many of my ESL students a war ship.

than herding cats”. Farm cats – the feral type – are so wild you never really know how they are going to react in any given situation. Sometimes I think even they don’t know how they will react. The barn cat who came in and pronounced herself a housecat, fondly known as Sheila, has been a very well behaved feline. I speak to her and she seems to understand. She even responds accordingly. She doesn’t like to be picked up but is fond of sitting right next to her humans and being petted. Sheila was probably the worst behaved cat of them all when sent to the vet to be fixed. Although she didn’t have to be caught in a live trap and caged for transport like the feral cats did, she was the only one of the bunch to twist around and bite the vet when she was trying to give her a shot. So when the female barn cat known as Nosey showed up one day with a huge swelling on the side of her face, I was pretty worried.

me nuts. We work so hard to grow healthy attractive plants that will thrive in our zone and the boss spends a fortune in propane to make sure they make it through the wild swings of temperature in our area. I’m of the opinion that people will pay for quality. That’s why we subscribe to PBS. Not a gouging price but a reasonable price. I’m at that age when things that are important take priority. I don’t have time for cheapskates. I don’t know why some people feel a sense of entitlement. They want it pretty but they want someone else to do the work. It keeps our landscaping crews employed but it’s not their garden. It’s someone else’s vision of a garden. I just can’t imagine having someone else design and plant something as personal as your garden. Angie has always said, “If only people with money had taste and people with taste had money”. I guess I’m old school. I want to tend my own garden. I want to finish my career in gardening dealing with “Dear hearts and Gentle People”. So far I’ve been incredibly lucky. I have come to know so many nice people that love to garden. And I know them by name. It really does make a difference. It’s not magic. Give people what they want at a reasonable price. That’s why we love PBS and that’s why we garden. If you have any gardening questions, contact us at the link below. info@floraldesignlandscaping.com

Today in the mail, our thank you gift for renewing our membership to PBS arrived. It was a six CD set of the music of the 50’s. We would subscribe without the gifts but it’s a nice bonus. Their programing includes all the things we are interested in. Gardening, travel, photography, cooking and yes Lawrence Welk. (You have to remember that I’m officially a geezer). I popped in one CD at random and one of the tunes was Bing Crosby singing “Dear hearts and Gentle People”. For the most part, that describes most of our customers. Over the last few years I have come to know some dear hearts and gentle people. I know them by name and I know how they garden. I have had so many people tell me that they enjoy this column. That makes it all worthwhile. They learn something and they enjoy reading about the family, the ducks and all the mistakes we make in our garden. We are looking forward to meeting some of my readers on July 7th. As I’ve said, we don’t do perfect. There are weeds and there are wonders. Every time we do “walkies”, we find surprises. Roses that we didn’t think had made the winter, hostas that have survived the onslaught of ten hens and new growth in the meadow. Gardeners are for the most part gentle people. I have a copy of the “Desiderata” posted in the kitchen. One of the lines says, “Avoid loud and aggressive people, they are vexations to the soul”. When I do get a customer that is loud and aggressive they seem to think they are entitled to a discount. They are the ones that drive

ASHTON, Arthur – In loving memory of my husband who passed away June 29, 2011. You knew I would miss you and tried so hard to stay, But the hardest thing I ever had to do is to be here alone without you day after day. I find myself just sitting and I look over at your chair, And I almost think I can really see you still sitting there. Life for you was getting hard and I know you had to go, As many years of failing health was really taking its toll. Please God put your arms around him and tell him how much I care, And how I look so forward to being with him up there. So for now, I carry on, as our family needs me, and I know they miss you too, But one by one someday we will all be together with you. To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. Miss you Love You Forever, Your Wife, Helen Beaupre
“WE REMEMBER”
JUNE - JULY
Just inside the main entrance of the C.R. Gamble Funeral Home is a book of remembrance. Each day we turn a page in the book. The names of those we have served are inscribed on that date along with the year in which they passed away. It is our way of honouring and remembering a life that was lived. It is
also our way of saying “thank you” to the many families who have shown confidence in us since we came to Almonte in 1973. Some families are unable to visit this book on the anniversary of the death of those they love. For this reason we are proud to publish these names weekly as our way of saying…“We Remember”.

JUBY, Dale – In precious memory of my darling husband Dale who walked through Heaven’s Gate June 24th, 2012. The moment that you died, My heart split in two, The one side filled with memories, The other died with you. I often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is a heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart, and there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, but it never will be the same. Sometimes I think I’m dreaming I can’t believe it’s true If I could have a lifetime wish A dream that would come true I would pray with all my heart For yesterday and you Until we meet again, Forever and always, your loving wife and friend, Diane
WILLIAMS, Michael - January 14, 1980-June 27, 2003. It’s been 10 years since you’ve been gone You were only 23 when you were taken away from me. You still had so much life to live So many smiles and love to give. We still hear your voice See your smiling face, When we look around, You’re every place- especially in our hearts and minds. We love you Michael. Until we meet again, Always remembered and loved. Mom, Phil, Adam and Melissa
GUTKNECHT, Eric Leslie William June 25, 2010 of Kemptville. We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, and the day before that, too. We think of you in silence, we often say your name, But all we have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake, with which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our heart. We shed tears for what might have been, a million times we’ve cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, In our heart you hold a place, no one could ever fill. It broke our heart to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you, the day God took you Home.

EMC News - The North Grenville Splash Pad Committee held a very successful and well attended launch party on Saturday June 22 at Riverside Park in Kemptville. Spirits were not dampened by rain showers, in fact they just served to highlight that kids, families, and good spirits go hand in hand with water! The event brought together parents, grandparents, care-givers, local businesses and other residents from North Grenville and beyond. The energy was high with kids running around, hula hooping, playing with bubbles and water games and dancing. Adding to the atmosphere were Kerry, Sue and Shannon Badgely who volunteered their time to play their well loved kids’ songs as well as duo Shawn Yakomivick and Katie Nolan who provided festive fiddling music .

MVFN celebrates 25 years encouraging love, knowledge of nature EMC News – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) held their annual general meeting (AGM) at the Almonte Civitan Club on May 16 followed by a very successful Spring Gathering event. The AGM was conducted by Ken Allison, president of MVFN, with attendance by the board and club members. Ken provided the membership with an overview of the organizations activities and finances over the last year. This is the club’s 25th year as an organization and during that time it has been very active promoting the understanding and awareness of the natural world in our community, with its popular natural history lectures series, canoe, hiking and birding outings, environmental programs for children and youth, and strong support for local conservation issues. The treasurer, Robert McCook presented the finances which show a well managed club which can continue to be very active. Ken introduced each of the board members for the coming year, and of special note is that Cliff Bennett, one of the founding members has once again been elected to the board where he will serve as vice-president for 201314. Cliff has been very actively involved with MVFN from it first days and will ensure it continues to be a vibrant and relevant organization. The AGM was followed by the wellattended and exciting Spring Gathering event. Starting with the reception, old friends and acquaintances shared drinks and chatted; many visited the Young Naturalists exhibit, the Reduce Plastic Bag campaign table and made bids on the silent auction items. The Almonte Civitan Club did an excellent job of providing top notch service and a very tasty meal. A special thanks goes out to all the volunteers, especially Rosemary McGinnis, this year’s event co-ordinator for MVFN.

Christmas Bird Count, enthusiastically guided the group through the evening culminating in a talk by Éric HébertDaly, executive director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society. Éric provided a passionate and insightful look at how conservation work was done traditionally such as through protected area campaigns, local land trusts, and renaturalization projects, and he explored how we might be more efficient and successful in the years to come through a shift towards a focus on ecological integrity, and methods such as land-use planning, network (versus islands) planning, multilateralism, and First Nations involvement to name a few. Eric fielded many interesting questions after his presentation, reflecting that our community is very engaged when it comes to the environment and conservation. It was a very successful and enjoyable evening, and everyone is reminded to put May 15 on their calendars for next year’s gathering. This summer, ongoing MVFN activities include the canoe/kayak program and annual summer walk, and the clubs’ monthly natural history lectures resume with a new series in September. Please see mvfn.ca for details of these upcoming activities and for membership information. Iain Wilkes is the publicity chair for the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists.

EMC Entertainment – Calabogie Peaks Resort will be buzzing this weekend with top Canadian country music stars at the inaugural Class Axe Guitars Calabogie Country Music Festival. Dallas Smith, Kira Isabella, and Jordan McIntosh are just a few of the exciting acts to hit the stage during the three-day event. The festival was conceived by the same team that organizes the wildly popular Calabogie Blues & Ribfest, which is heading into its third year. The Calabogie Country Music Festival will deliver top country music, on-site camping, beer gardens, food vendors, chairlift rides, a kids’ zone and more. Hailing from nearby Carleton Place, singer Jordan McIntosh is the latest sensation on the country music scene. He will headline the Friday night show at the festival, with well-known singer Leah Daniels as the opener. McIntosh, who has acquired a large fan base already, is sure to deliver a performance that will showcase that show-stopping talent. Dallas Smith is set to headline Saturday evening’s events. Numerous country bands, including Autumn Hill, Whitney Rose, The Working Class & Ryan Cook, will be taking the stage, beginning at noon leading up to the night’s big event, a performance by Canadian country music star, Smith. He delivers an outstanding show, which is a must-see for any country music fan. Smith spent the last ten years fronting the popular band Default, before stepping into a solo career in 2011. He released his solo debut country album, Jumped Right In, back in May 2012 and its first single, ‘Somebody Somewhere’, immediately soared up the Canadian Hot 100 charts. Sunday’s wrap up to the festival includes performances by Tim Chaisson, the ever-popular country band Silver Creek, Kerosene Creek, and local favourites, Ambush. Closing out the festival will be the exciting Canadian Country Music Award winner Kira Isabella. In 2012, Isabella won the Canadian Country Music Association’s Rising Star Award. Her debut CD quickly garnered national attention and she became one to watch in the Canadian country music scene. The festival grounds will open at 2 p.m. on Friday, June 28 with onsite camping. Music performances will commence at 7 p.m. More information and tickets can be found at www.calabogiecountry. com.

Plan now to pay yourself for all retirement years Manage Your Money
Retirement is coming at you faster than you expected – but that’s okay because you expect those years to be fulfilling, brimming with new experiences and activities. And you will enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve dreamed about if you plan now to be sure you’ll have the financial resources you’ll need for all your retirement years. And that could be for a lot of years. According to Statistics Canada*, life expectancy for seniors has been on an upward trend over the last 15 years. The foundation of your retirement plan is your retirement income – so you need to know where it will come from and how much it will be. Check these sources: • The federal government offers: o the Canada Pension Plan/ Québec Pension Plan (CPP/QPP) that provides about 25% of your average annual earnings during your working life, up to certain limits. They are indexed annually for inflation and are taxable. o Old Age Security (OAS) benefits usually begin between age 65 and age 67. Benefits are taxable, indexed for inflation, and ‘clawed back’ in increasing amounts as your individual net income climbs above a
tax-reduction strategies like income-splitting, sharing CPP/QPP benefits with your partner, limiting fully taxable RRIF withdrawals, allocating assets effectively, using a Tax-Free Savings Account, and taking advantage of the tax-sheltering benefits of your RRSP by making your maximum contribution up to the end of the year you turn 71. You can build a retirement income that fits your lifestyle dreams and will last for all your retirement years when you have the right plan – and that should start with seeking advice and counsel from a professional advisor who has the expertise to keep you on the right financial track for your lifetime. *The Daily, Thursday, May 31, 2012 This column, written and published by Investors Group Financial Services Inc.

To be sure your retirement income will last a lifetime: • Know the retirement lifestyle you want. • Estimate your retirement spending for essentials that aren’t easily reduced and discretionary expenses that you can control. • Assess your investment strategies. Consider a conservative strategy for essential expenses and a more growth-oriented strategy for investments to support your discretionary spending. • Manage your withdrawals from retirement savings.
