Restaurants and retail in Santa Barbara County are reopening under stage two of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s plan for the state, and as they do, cities from Carpinteria to Solvang are making plans to bring back the region’s most vital industry: Tourism. Santa Barbara County is now officially in the latter half of stage two, where hotels only open for essential travelers, and must wait to move into stage three to invite leisure travelers to the area. Nevertheless, organizations like Visit Santa Barbara and the Carpinteria Chamber of Commerce have been laying the groundwork for when tourists are able to visit the county once again. After encouraging locals to return to restaurants and retail while practicing social distancing, Visit Santa Barbara is preparing messaging about why Santa Barbara is a compelling travel destination. “Visit Santa Barbara has been finalizing our marketing plan for the South Coast’s reopening so that it’s ready to roll out when stayat-home measures are lifted,” said Kathy Janega-Dykes, president and CEO of Visit Santa Barbara. “Since financial resources are tight, digital advertising and marketing channels will be focal points of the campaign,” she said. “We’ll be featuring beautiful, compelling images and messages that inspire travel, by showcasing travelers’ interests and balancing the sensitivities of the moment.” By keeping up with weekly

Hundreds of Isla Vista residents marched from Storke Tower down to Sands Beach Saturday afternoon in Isla Vista to protest the death of George Floyd. The group of mainly students and a few members of the nearby community gathered at the tower around noon. Masks were distributed and caution tape was set up in front of the tower to remind attendees to keep a safe distance from each other due to the coronavirus pandemic. A similar rally was held Friday night in Santa Barbara, with residents gathering at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse and marching down State Street.

While a number of rallies held throughout the country in recent days have resulted in mass looting and clashes with law enforcement, the two rallies held locally were conducted peacefully and no noteworthy incidents were reported. “They were loud, but that’s about it,” Lt. Aaron Baker, spokesman for the Santa Barbara Police Department, told the News-Press on Friday night following the march. During Saturday’s rally, the group shouted chants of “Black Lives Matter” and “No justice, no peace” as they made their way through I.V.

prevalent, they’ll also be staying closer to home and taking more road trips. So, it makes sense to position Santa Barbara as a great outdoor escape for people in drive markets who desperately need a change of scenery,” said Ms. Janega-Dykes. “Surveys also show that travelers will be receptive to destinations they already have familiarity and positive associations with. Californians already have awareness, interest and an affinity for Santa Barbara, which will create a sense of security.” As a community heavily reliant on tourism, Santa Barbara has its work cut out getting the industry up and running after two months of heavy losses. According to Ms. JanegaDykes, about 20% of South Coast hotels have closed temporarily, and for those that remain open, occupancy, rates and revenue have plummeted. Massive furloughs and layoffs in the restaurant and retail sector have also been the norm, not only harming businesses, but also city and county tax revenues. The city of Santa Barbara recently reported that the TOT taxes collected for April, just over

$110,000, was a 93% decrease compared to the same time period last year. In Solvang, the city has seen its tax revenue drop by $500,000 per month as tourism has ceased. The task of marketing Solvang’s tourism as the city reopens has fallen to IDK Events, a San Francisco based event production company contracted by the city in January after its success with Julefest 2020. Like Visit Santa Barbara, IDK Events is not aggressively marketing to tourists yet, but is keeping a close eye on consumer sentiment in preparation for a marketing campaign directed at Californians close to the area. “They want to focus on road trips, they want to focus on areas that are smaller that they consider safe, so if you look at a Venn diagram there’s a lot of overlap with Solvang. We’re really excited and feel positive that Solvang is going to benefit from this change in the short-term in tourism sentiment,” said Scott Shuemake, president of IDK Events. IDK Events’ initial marketing will be focused on areas within 300 miles, including residents in the Santa Ynez Valley within 30 Please see TOURISM on A3

Signs are placed in the sand at the beach in Carpinteria, as people gather for a day near the ocean.

‘The hospitality industry has proven to be one of the most resilient sectors to rebound from economic disaster’ TOURISM

Continued from Page A1 minutes of Solvang. “We really want folks to reexperience their backyard. That’s the tone of our initial marketing once tourism is allowed,� said Mr. Shuemake. In Carpinteria, while businesses are eager to welcome back customers both locally and from out of town, the city is focusing on educating retail and restaurants on safe practices and distributing financial aid rather than preparing a marketing strategy for tourism. “We don’t really advertise. People just come because they love this coastal beach community because of its quaintness and the small unique businesses that we have here. We know that once it is completely safe to welcome visitors that visitors will come. We get a lot of phone calls about people wanting to know when we are going to safely reopen our hotels and vacation rentals,� said Joyce Donaldson, President and CEO of the Carpinteria Chamber of Commerce. “Of course we will welcome

them with open arms when it’s safe.� While it is likely to take multiple years for a full recovery, those tasked with fostering Santa Barbara County’s tourism remain optimistic that travelers will return, as long as the region maintains its relatively low number of COVID-19 cases. In light of consumer sentiment reports, the county seems well

placed to take advantage of a day tripping and drivable tourism trend. “In the past, the hospitality industry has proven to be one of the most resilient sectors to rebound from economic disaster. That may be in part because of the basic human needs that are fulfilled by travel — to dream, discover, to be inspired and restored, and to connect with

loved ones,� said Ms. JanegaDykes. “It’s going to be our privilege to contribute to get Santa Barbara back on its feet and see our hospitality workers get back to doing the jobs they love — helping visitors create moments of transformation and connection.� email: cwhittle@newspress.com

Hurley lifted off at 12:22 p.m. Saturday on the company’s Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The launch was initially set to take off on Wednesday, but bad weather forced the launch to be scrapped and moved to Saturday. Saturday also marked the first time since 2011 that astronauts have been launched from American soil. Since 2011, the United States has primarily relied on Russian rockets to carry astronauts to and from the space station. Crowds of spectators were in awe watching the rocket lift off, including President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. According to a press release from NASA, SpaceX controlled the launch of the Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy’s Launch Control Center Firing Room 4, the former space shuttle control room, which SpaceX has leased as its primary launch control center. Saturday also marked a huge moment for the private sector in space exploration efforts. Elon Musk, who founded SpaceX in 2002 with the goal of sending humans to Mars, enjoyed the company’s biggest success in its 18 years. Back in 2014, NASA awarded contracts up to a combined $6.8 million to both Boeing and SpaceX. In the coming years, SpaceX saw a lot of troubles, including seeing one of its Falcon 9 rockets blowing up last year during a test of its abort engines. On Saturday, however, there were no issues during launch and the Crew Dragon space capsule, which successfully separated from its booster on time, is set to arrive at the International Space Station shortly after 10 a.m. today. Thousands of people were also watching the launch from the comforts of their home, including hundreds of people across Santa Barbara County and many at Vandenberg Air Force Base. The Vandenberg Air Force

Crowds of spectators were in awe watching the rocket lift off, including President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. Base shared a live stream of the 45th Space Wing congratulating the launch, as well as showcasing the lift off. In the Facebook post, the Vandenberg Air Force Base said, “PheNOMINAL performance today at the 45th Space Wing! The Eastern Range and their partners NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration and SpaceX have made history by launching the first crewed flight in nearly a decade from American soil. Launch safety is key to the future of space exploration, and we are here for it!� The post was met with hundreds of reactions as well as a few comments from the local community. Vandenburg is also no stranger to lending a helping hand to SpaceX. In fact, SpaceX currently operates Vandenberg’s Space Launch Complex 4, which has two landing pads, both of which are used for Falcon 9 launch operations. The first Falcon 9 launched from Vandenberg was back in 2013 after a 24-month process. Just last year, Vandenberg was also involved in two projects with SpaceX launches. The first was back in early January as part of Iridium’s last mission. On Jan. 11, 2019, SpaceX launched the final 10 Iridium Next satellites into orbit completing its deal with Iridium Communications, its largest nongovernment customer. Just a few months later, SpaceX again launched a Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg, this time sending a trio of Canadian synthetic aperture radar satellites on June 12. The satellites promised to bring higher resolution imagery with shorter revisit times. email: jmercado@newspress.com

Now paved with creativity Artists and writers express their ideas in chalk on State Street By DAVE MASON

S

NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

tate Street has become chalk full of ideas. As progress continues toward reopenings, the street has evolved into a pedestrian promenade and, in a burst of spontaneity, a creative avenue for expression. To see what’s up, just look down. Chalk messages and drawings have turned what was just pavement into a canvas of emotions, advice and humor. You’ll find a lot in just the 700 block, which is featured in the photos on this page. For example, there’s that alien waiting to beam up to a starship. Look elsewhere, and you’ll see a face sparkling with dramatic eyes, an opened mouth and the hint of a nose. Someone else has drawn a pyramid and the Eye of Providence above it with the ominous message: “Welcome to the New World Order.” But artists are also encouraging you to stay optimistic. Just keep walking on State Street, and “just keep smiling” — that’s the word on the street. And if you don’t see the sun above you, just look down. It’s there in all its glory, thanks to a chalk artist. email: dmason@newspress.com

PETERSON, Rosina Celeste Tiberti

June 3, 1924 - March 16, 2020 Rosina Peterson of Santa Barbara, and most recently Las Vegas, passed away peacefully with family by her side. Truly a coal miner’s daughter, she was born in Morley, CO, a twin and the ninth child of Andro and Elisa Tiberti. She later lived in Detroit and Southern California, then graduated from UCSB in 1950. She married Lt. Lloyd Peterson USAF in 1951 and enjoyed living in Omaha, NE, Puerto Rico, Cape Canaveral, FL, Washington, D.C. and finally her beloved Santa Barbara. Rosina had a career as an executive secretary and later volunteered at St. Francis Hospital. She maintained lifelong relationships with many college friends known as the Potter’s Daughters. An adventurous traveler in the company of sisters and friends, she visited over 46 countries including Mexico, Morocco, China, the USSR, Australia and family in Italy. She found enjoyment in the music of Accordion and Harmonica. She attended music conventions throughout the world, visited the Hohner Museum and Factory in Germany and was acquainted with “stars” in both mediums. She loved sharing this particular music with friends and family, a harmonica birthday tune performed by her over the phone was one of her trademarks. She is survived by over 100 nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews, and even greatgrand nieces and nephews whom she loved and cherished. The family wishes to thank Ron and Sandy Wilmot for their selfless care and attention during Rosina’s final years and to all her wonderful friends in Santa Barbara for their friendships. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the UNLV Foundation- Maria Tiberti Nursing Scholarship.

MARGERUM, Donald Lee

Donald Lee Margerum passed peacefully at home in Montecito, California on May 24, 2020. He lived a long and beautiful life, and was ready to leave this life as his health declined. Don was born on March 29th, 1926 in Ferguson, Missouri to parents Donald Cameron Margerum and Ida Lee Nunley. His early years were spent in Ferguson with his younger twin brothers, Dave and Dale. Don was interested in science and aviation from a young age, flying model airplanes and building toys for himself and his neighborhood friends. His interests led him into a degree in electrical engineering, initially from University of Missouri, and then to Northwestern for his Masters Degree. After serving in the Navy, Don married the love of his life, Barbara Barden, and they moved to California to start a family and a new life in Los Angeles. Don had an illustrious career, making many bold moves that got him noticed by various aerospace engineering firms and held several microwave patents. His chapter in the book Microwave Scanning Antennas was a professional accomplishment of which he was very proud. He eventually founded his own company, Raven Electronics in Burbank, California where he and his team worked to develop proposals for government defense contracts. Don and his wife Barbara moved to Santa Barbara in 1978 when Don was approached by Raytheon where he worked until retirement. Not long after moving to Santa Barbara the family purchased a small wine shop called the Wine Cask and over the next 30 years his initial investment grew into a revered restaurant and food and wine destination. Don was an avid tennis player and sailor, enjoyed chartering boats for family vacations and sailing competitively with his son, Doug. He loved fly fishing and pursued the outdoors every summer at their cabin in Colorado. He loved his involvement with the Aspen Institute, his passion for undergrounding electrical utilities in Montecito, his book club, his Men’s group, the Unitarian Society discussion groups and VISTAS lifelong learning. Don loved all sweets, especially coconut ice cream and always had a full cookie jar. Don is survived by his wife, Barbara, children Hugh, (and wife Carol), Doug (and wife Marni), and Amy (and husband Gilchrist), his four grandsons Lyle, Slater, Remy and Evan (and their mother Laurel). The Visiting Nurse and Hospice providers at VNA Health in Santa Barbara provided exceptional care in Don’s final days, and in lieu of gifts, donations can be made to VNA Health or to the Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara.

GORDON, William “Bill” Loveland William Loveland “Bill” Gordon died on April 29, 2020, in Santa Barbara,11 days after his 90th birthday. Bill was born on Good Friday, April 18, 1930, in Cherokee Iowa. His parents were Walter Max Gordon, a city editor of the local newspaper and Harriet Loveland, also a journalist. Bill was welcomed to the world at 2:07 p.m. Central time. Ironically, less than 40 minutes later, at 8:45pm the BBC news bulletin came on in London as it did every night. The difference, on this night, was the announcer said, “There is no news today” and classical music was played for the next 15 minutes. Obviously, the BBC had not heard of Bill yet. Bill lived in Cherokee with his parents and younger brother Tim until he was fourteen when the family moved to Salinas, California for a new job for Max at the Salinas Californian. The Gordons got settled in Salinas, welcomed two more children, Chris and Jane. Bill was a hurdler in high school and went to the State Championship. He graduated from Salinas High in 1948. Upon graduation, he took advantage of a program combining military service with college. Immediately before entering the Service he climbed Mt. Shasta via Avalanche Gulch. He received his degree in political science in 1953 from UC Berkeley. After spending additional time in the Military (including Korea), he entered law school at UC Berkeley – Boalt Hall. He was admitted to the California Bar in 1957. While in law school, Bill met Betty Bennet and they married in 1956. Their daughter Jennifer was born the following year. The family moved to Santa Barbara in 1958 and in 1960, moved into their home on the Mesa, where Bill continued to live for the next 60 years. They also welcomed son Andy in 1960 and daughter Kelly in 1964 to the family. Betty passed away in 1990 after 33 years of marriage. Bill married Carol Severson Lux in 1994. He often remarked that he was so lucky to have had the love and support of two wonderful women. After law school, Bill worked for the State of California for a short time before joining the Santa Barbara law firm of Cavalletto, Webster, Mullen & McCaughey. He often expressed gratitude for partner Tom Mullen, also an Army man, who recruited him from the Bay Area. He happily became a permanent Santa Barbara resident. Bill joined Rogers & Wilcox (later Wilcox & Gordon). Eventually, he and Phil Wilcox rejoined his former firm – now Mullen & Henzell. In 1983, Bill was appointed as a Santa Barbara Superior Court Judge by then Governor George Deukmejian. He served on the bench for almost 20 years. As a retired judge, he heard cases on assignment throughout California. Bill gave his time and talents to many local causes, including the Santa Barbara Bar Association and the United Way. He was a driving force bringing the Inns of Court concept to Santa Barbara. In 2000 the Santa Barbara Inns of Court was renamed the William L. Gordon Inns of Court in his honor. He supported Legal Aid efforts and spent many a Saturday on the bench hearing Mock Trials presented by local students. He was always welcoming of government classes that wanted to see how a court room worked. Bill judged the annual Lions Club Speech contest for many years. His basic wisdom and capable leadership benefited many organizations. Bill’s membership in the University Club brought well-handled meeting arrangements and dining enjoyment over the years. Many in the legal community recall seeing him and Judge Ron Stevens walking up Santa Barbara Street to the Club and the revered “Judges’ Table” for lunch. He was also a good friend to the Santa Barbara Legal Secretaries Association. Officiating at weddings was one of his favorite activities, which he always performed free of charge. A highlight was the opportunity to officiate at the wedding of his grandson Erik on the grounds of the New Orleans Museum of Art. Bill and Carol enjoyed being with friends as they took part in Los Fiesteros Dance Club over the years. Being such a good fit for Army service, Bill naturally became involved in the Army Reserve, joining the 425th Civil Affairs Company in Santa Barbara. He retired as a Colonel in 1990 after many years of service, having become the commanding officer of the unit. In his free time Bill was known for his ever-growing vegetable garden – often producing more produce than the family could eat. One year, swiss chard was distributed to all the neighbors. His tomatoes were legendary. One of his other passions was the family cabin at Lake of the Woods in Oregon, where he enjoyed fishing and relaxing. Thanks to his stewardship of the cabin, which included rebuilding it twice after major storm damage, this family treasure continues to welcome new generations of the family. Bill is being remembered by his wife of 26 years, Carol Lux Gordon and his daughters, Jennifer Burnett (John) of Battlefield MO, and Kelly Flood (Jeff) of Thousand Oaks CA, His son Andy Gordon passed away two years ago. He is also survived by his eight grandchildren, Erik Burnett (Marin), Seattle WA, Randelin Burnett, Medford OR, Kevin Burnett (Ashley), Lantana TX, Brett Gordon, Lompoc, CA, Shelby Gordon, Lompoc, Ashley Flood, Thousand Oaks, Chris Flood, Thousand Oaks and Ryan Gordon, Lompoc and his two great grandsons, Dominic Burnett, Seattle and Kason Burnett, Lantana. He is also survived by his siblings, Tim Gordon (Donna); Chris Gordon (Jane), and Jane Wittmann (Will), in addition to numerous nieces and nephews. Also remembering Bill fondly are his step-children, Karen Maassen (Nevil) and Shari Abdoulah (Michael) and step-grandchildren, Miles and Chloe Maassen, and Ava, Gabe and Lea Abdoulah. A celebration of Bill’s life will be held later in the year. In memory of William L. Gordon, memorial donations can be made to the Alzheimer’s Association, or Salvation Army. Support of local charities with donations of time or treasure is also encouraged in his memory. The family wishes to express eternal gratitude to our Vista del Monte friends for their kindness and affection towards Bill in the last two months of his life. In this troubled Spring of 2020, they provided help with precious FaceTime calls and Bill’s 90th birthday family gathering, via Zoom. We honor the nurses and staff. They loved him.

SAGE, Ellis Henry

Ellis Henry Sage passed away in Camarillo, California on May 12, 2020, following a long illness. He was born to Henry and Lucile Sage on March 14, 1936, in La Connor, Washington, the youngest of four children. At the age of seven his family moved to National City, California.

Ellis received his Ph.D. in psychology in 1966 from the University of Minnesota. His many faceted career spanned 40 years. Highlights include his position as a clinical psychologist at Sansum Medical Clinic, attending psychologist at Cottage Hospital, service as an expert forensic witness, and counseling at-risk foster youth. Ellis cared deeply about his clients and devoted his career to helping people live happier lives. Ellis was a talented and dedicated musician, playing the clarinet at Santa Barbara City College in orchestra, concert band, and chamber music for over two decades. He was an avid cyclist, a collector of tube electronics, and had a lifelong fascination with WWII aircraft. Ellis was passionate about everything he did, and everyone he loved. He was a kind, thoughtful, and generous person, whose unfailing support was the hallmark of his character. Ellis is preceded in death by his parents, Henry and Lucile Sage and older sister, Myrn. He is survived by his wife, Jan, son, Carl, stepdaughters, Holli and Leslie, sisters, Nona and Levina, several nieces, nephews, cousins, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. A Celebration of Life will be scheduled at a later date.

ABBEY, A. Laurence Santa Barbara lost one of her true gentlemen when Arlen Laurence (“Laurie”) Abbey (1929-2020) passed peacefully into the presence of the Lord on May 13, 2020. Predeceased by his beloved wife Donna and older sister Ellen Patricia, he is survived by his children Catherine Abbey Hodges, Russell Abbey, Anna Abbey, and Miriam Abbey; four grandchildren, Clara, McNeil, Thomas, and Nina; one great grandchild due in September; and his nieces and nephews Carol, Cindy, David, Andy, Scott, Charles, and Kirsten. Born in Bakersfield to Ida Slinkard Abbey and Laurence Everett Abbey, Laurie spent his early years in Delano, California. He lost his mother in a car accident at age four and was subsequently raised by his father and loving stepmother Vera Beall Abbey. As a teenager, Laurie was an accomplished model airplane builder and worked various jobs, including homing pigeon handler and sales/delivery person at the local pharmacy. He ran on the track team at Delano High School and excelled at the 880 yard run, placing 4th in the state championship. His classmates elected him Senior Class President, and he maintained friendships with many of them throughout his life. Laurie continued his education at Bakersfield College and then USC, where he earned first a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy and then a Doctorate of Dental Surgery. He met Donna Burns Alderson at a USC Dental School softball game; she stepped up to the plate, broke the bat, and he was smitten. In 1957, Laurie and Donna entered into what was to be a 60-year marriage, and the young couple lived in Pacific Grove while he completed his Army commitment at nearby Fort Ord. In 1958, he and Donna moved to Santa Barbara, where they flourished, raising a family of four children. After the Abbeys moved to Santa Barbara, Laurie practiced as a dentist in an office in the 1800 block of State St. until 1967 when he returned to USC for two years for a Master of Science degree in Orthodontics, subsequently operating an orthodontic practice on the corner of State and Alamar until 1997. Dr. Abbey endeared himself to his patients and his staff with his gentle touch and warm professionalism. Laurie was an enthusiastic reader, and his children marveled at his encyclopedic breadth of knowledge and ability to answer questions on a wide range of subjects. Among his life’s passions, three that stand out are health, aviation, and faith. Committed to nurturing and improving the health of his family, he would study journals and articles on longevity and vitality. He was a champion of vitamins and a healthy diet and instilled these values in his children. An avid pilot in his younger years, he often flew to dental conferences around the country. Although his flying waned as the needs of his family grew, he could often be found “hangar flying” at local airports and poring over aviation magazines. A man of faith and service, Laurie was a loyal and much-loved parishioner of El Montecito Presbyterian Church where he held a variety of leadership roles over the decades. He and Donna made many lifelong friends there and cherished the Sunday services as well as the Bible Studies and other groups, including their favorite, the indefatigable Laugh Group. Laurie and Donna enjoyed opening their home and hosted a variety of gatherings associated with the arts, church, neighborhood, and the Santa Barbara City College International Students Organization. Laurie was a wonderful friend and listener who made people feel respected and cared for when they talked to him because, in fact, he respected and cared for them. Above all, though, he was a loving and devoted husband and father and a decent, principled man who unwaveringly lived according to his faith and his values. He will be remembered with respect, gratitude, and love by his family and friends.

Santa Barbara’s weekly Sunday event might be back sooner than expected

Waiting for art show’s return

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

C

OVID-19 interrupted a 54-year-old Sunday tradition in Santa Barbara. Every Sunday, at least every Sunday before Gov. Gavin Newsom’s shelter-in-place order in March, artists have gathered along a long stretch of Cabrillo Boulevard to sell their goods and mingle with customers who come from nearby cities and faraway places. Judith Geiger misses them. She misses the customers who inspired her kiln-formed glass works, including fish-themed art, at the Santa Barbara Arts and Crafts Show. As one of the 140 artists with a booth, she misses talking about art with people who want to meet artists and learn about the creative process. “Having a new audience for my work every week keeps me motivated and inspired,” the Santa Barbara artist told the News-Press, as she and other artists gathered for interviews by local sculptor “Bud” Bottoms’ dolphins statue in front of Stearns Wharf. Now there’s hope that the show will return, possibly sooner than expected. “Originally we were thinking this was going to be Stage 3,” Jason S. Bryan, senior recreation supervisor with the city of Santa Barbara, told the News-Press by Mr. Bottoms’ iconic landmark. Mr. Bryan was referring to the stages of reopenings during the pandemic. “But it sounds like this will be later Stage 2,” he said, although he added he can’t predict a date at this point. “It could be a matter of weeks. I’m hoping it’s not months,” Mr. Bryan said. “These are 140 small business owners. I want to get them back into business as soon as we can.” Many of the show’s self-employed artists depend on the show as their primary source of income, Marilyn Dannehower, chair of the show’s ad hoc advertising committee, told the News-Press. She said she hopes the show will reopen this summer. Mr. Bryan said the city regularly gets information from the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department and has developed reopening protocols that are being reviewed.

“It’s going to be so important to us when we open to have Santa Barbarans there. We could really use the support of the locals,” said Marilyn Dannehower, chair of the ad hoc advertising committee of the Santa Barbara Arts and Craft Show. The show, which was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, stretches from Stearns Wharf behind Mrs. Dannehower to almost as far as Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort.

He said he’s encouraged by the progress of reopenings facilities such as the city’s Los Banos Pool, which became available last week for lap swimming. Mr. Bryan said the art show’s booths, which vary from 10 to 25 feet wide, are already designed for social distancing. He added that artists will be required to wear masks. Mrs. Dannehower noted the ease

of social distancing “for outdoor event like ours that is widely spaced out, when it’s more like a farmers’ market situation. We’re not that tight. “We don’t have rows. We string way, way down from Stearns Wharf to almost as far as Fess Parker’s,” she said, referring to the Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort. Mrs. Dannehower said the show offers customers and artists some

one-on-one experience. “Everybody who’s selling something has to be the maker of that work. They can’t be selling for somebody else,”she said. The Santa Barbara resident, who creates jewelry, mosaics and paintings,, said she and other artists enjoy the contact with customers. “Most of us are pretty friendly and outgoing. You meet a lot of new people. It’s a very, very low-key

sale situation. The customers are actually meeting the artists. “People come from all over California for the show. I have customers I see two or three times a year, and they’re coming from Chicago,” she said. “It’s going to be so important to us when we open to have Santa Barbarans there. We could really use the support of the locals. It’s going to be a while before we get a

lot of tourists.” Email: dmason@newspress.com

HOROSCOPE Horoscope.com Sunday, May 31, 2020 ARIES — This week can be an opportunity to take some time out, particularly if you need quiet to think things through. Your thoughts might veer toward family and domestic matters. TAURUS — Money matters may be very much on your mind this week with a view toward enhancing cash flow and perhaps earning extra income. GEMINI — The focus on your sign this week continues to give you an advantage because you’ll likely have more energy and confidence to move ahead with key plans. CANCER — Rather than engage just your head this week, listen to your heart, too. Beneath the endless chatter of your mind, your true desires may be discovered. LEO — This week you may find yourself involved in all kinds of activities as your curiosity leads you to explore further. This can be a peak time to make new friends and move in new circles. VIRGO — Be a little bit careful this week because some deals could fall through unexpectedly. Changes might show up at any time over the coming weeks and perhaps cause you to question your original plans. LIBRA — The idea of visiting new places and getting out and about can stir up a sense of excitement. In the coming week may find yourself eager to explore new opportunities, try out ideas and beliefs. SCORPIO — This week can be one of the better times to get your business affairs and finances in order. Directing your attention to those areas that may have become muddled or confused, SAGITTARIUS — This week is a time when you might want to network to reach goals that would be difficult to accomplish alone. Your social life might also get some extra sparkle if you have an opportunity to get out and about. CAPRICORN — Consider how well you’re looking after yourself this week. Do you make time for self-care, nutritious meals, and relaxation, or are you always in a hurry? The answer could be very revealing. AQUARIUS — Are you ready to indulge? The coming week could find you eager to explore your favorite hobbies and sports. The presence of the sun here encourages you to make use of your skills and talents. PISCES — Home, sweet home could call out to you over the coming week. This is your chance to spend more time with close ones and nurture yourself if you haven’t had an opportunity to do so for a while.

Byron Walden is a math and computer science professor at Santa Clara University, “currently on sabbatical at the exotic location of my dining-room table.” He picked up his love of crosswords from his grandmother and father and is now passing it along to his 8-year-old son. This puzzle is themeless. It features longer, sometimes more challenging vocabulary than usual, with only 122 answers (versus the standard 140). — W.S.

How to play Codeword Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great test of your knowledge of the English language.

SOLUTION ON D3

Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start you off. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1 - 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Opposing parenting styles

D

ear Abby: My husband’s sister “Cassie� and I got along well until we had kids. Our children are months apart in age, and parenting has brought out the differences in our beliefs in a way that has made it hard for us to get along. I’m a proponent of Western medicine. My kids are vaccinated. We take them to the doctor, give them antibiotics when their doctor prescribes Abigail them and Van Buren emphasize a balanced diet. Cassie is a proponent of alternative medicine. She doesn’t vaccinate her kids, keeps a vegan house and uses homeopathic remedies and meditation to combat illness. This difference has resulted in heated arguments about what’s best for kids, and we have not been able to “agree to disagree.� Recently she sent me a large, and probably expensive, set of herbal remedies as a “gift.� If it were from someone else, I’d thank her and give the set to someone who would use it. But in light of our ongoing “debates,� this feels like a passive-aggressive dig at my values. It would be like me sending her a grass-fed steak and a wheel of Brie. How should I respond? — Different Medical Beliefs Dear D.M.B.: Don’t overreact. Write Cassie a sweet note thanking her for her “thoughtfulness� and give the unwanted gift to someone who might use it or toss it. Do NOT let this degenerate into another argument. And let’s hope that her children continue to enjoy good health. Dear Abby: I am mature for being 16. However, I have a few quirks that I prefer not to tell anyone about because when I do, most of the feedback I get is negative. First, I don’t like watching PG-13 movies, so my favorite TV shows and movies are for kids. My mom and sister keep telling me how dumb and stupid it is and that they’re surprised I don’t watch things “more my age.� I don’t call their shows stupid. I hate telling people my favorite TV shows because of the kind of reaction I get from the people close to me. Second, I love stuffed animals. Last time I counted, I had around 60. All of them have value to me and make me happy. Is there something wrong with having that many? One of my sister’s famous quotes is, “How come you have them if you don’t use them?� Occasionally she has tried to take stuff from me because of her “philosophy.� Is there something wrong with me? Or should I ignore the nasty comments? — Kid at Heart in the Midwest Dear Kid at Heart: There is no accounting for taste. Many adults still read the funnies. I know this for certain because I am one of them. We all have our quirks, and that includes your mother and your sister. Yours harm no one, and if they bring you pleasure, I see no reason not to indulge yourself. Your mom and sister may be teasing you, so stop rising to the bait. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Injured dancer feels like she’s lost her identity

D

ear Carolyn: Until last year, I was a professional ballet dancer. Dancing is all I ever wanted to do and I trained nonstop since I was 6. I got into a great program and as soon as I graduated, I was one of the lucky few who got a job onstage. Last year, I fell — not while dancing — and badly fractured my leg. There were complications and it was a long, slow battle. I’m finally better and it looks like I’ll dance again, but doctors have said I will not have the stamina to dance professionally, not now, probably not ever. I’m devastated. I don’t know who I am, if I’m not a dancer. People keep suggesting I can teach, but I don’t have the temperament and don’t really like children and don’t have the experience or reputation to draw older students. I need to figure out what to do with my life but I just want to curl up and cry. My savings are gone due to medical bills, and my boyfriend and friends are all dancers. Everyone kept telling me things would get better, but they’ve gotten worse. I can’t tell my family since they all just want so much for me to be OK that I pretend I am. But I’m not. What do I do? — Lost Lost: This sounds devastating, I’m sorry. But not hopeless. “Doctors have said� is not the same thing as a certainty. If you want this, then Plan A is to go get it. You’ll need a Plan B only if Plan A proves impossible. But work on one anyway, because there was always going to be an “after� for your dance career to some degree — and you

TONIGHT

can think through one even as you train. I also urge you not to reject so many possible Plan B’s out of hand. Can’t teach, don’t like kids, can’t get adult students ... these are the “nopes� of someone who hasn’t yet tried. As I say to my kids (who I am sure never want to hear this again): Don’t cut yourself before you even try out. You are also an artist, from the inside out. That inside hasn’t changed. And when the business of dance returns to stages, it will be the end product of multiple career paths, not just dancing — from choreography to philanthropy to physical therapy. Widen your scope. Again, just in case. You also say your people aren’t available to you as support, but withdrawing from them (preemptively?) is not the answer. The answer is to do the extra work to engage. To isolate yourself in your negative feelings is potentially dangerous to your mental health. What your family wants is for you to be well, not to get sicker from pretending you’re well. On this medical journey, were you ever evaluated for depression? It could explain your sense of hopelessness. Even if what you’re feeling isn’t depression, there’s still a cloud around your thinking. You have life left, you have spirit, you have value. You just don’t know yet where you’ll take them. That’s scary but also normal; it takes time to see all the ways to takewho you still are and put this person — who is injured, not erased — on a rewarding new path. Email Carolyn at tellme@washpost.com or chat with her online at 9 a.m. each Friday at www.washingtonpost.com.

gUEST OPINION

Scared to death: Breach of public trust

F

ace masks last week became mandatory throughout Santa Barbara County by way of an order from the county health officer, Dr. Henning Ansorg. For the following reasons, I am declaring a vote of no confidence in Dr. Ansorg and his colleague, Public Health Director Van Do-Reynoso, as the current orders amount to nothing less than a breach of public trust and virtuesignaling on steroids. My complaint has to do with the moral and ethical duty of health care providers to “first do no harm.” That is, the response to the virus shutdown is now creating what hundreds of doctors are describing as a mass casualty event having to do with a breakdown of our public health system. This involves the deleterious impacts of continued isolation (suicide, drug and alcohol abuse, depression, domestic violence, etc.), along with the impacts associated with cancellations and delays resulting from people avoiding their doctors and emergency rooms due to fears associated with the virus (one

continuously determine if they need to be quarantined from the rest of us. The truth of the matter is that transmission in the general public was never our particular problem to begin with. Almost all of the transmission incidents in our county occurred in places closed to the public, including nursing homes and the Lompoc Penitentiary. Additionally, most of the remaining transmissions of the virus these days are happening at home. Yet the order does not require people to wear the mask at home. Why won’t these officials admit that the surge of the virus passed us by two months ago? Why have they completely shunned the means by which we can achieve herd immunity, the only real protection from the virus, rather than prolonging this shutdown indefinitely?

Making sense of war on COVID-19

I

feel terribly sorry for the hundred thousand Americans who’ve lost their lives to the coronavirus. I also feel sorry for all the small business owners in the country who have become innocent victims of the government’s mishandled war on COVID-19. They worked long and hard to start up their local restaurants, coffee shops, clothing stores, hair salons, health spas, book stores and pet grooming shops. But in just three months their livelihoods — and the livelihoods of millions of their employees –— were destroyed by the unnecessarily severe shutdown of most of our booming national economy. An MSNBC business reporter I heard being interviewed on the radio predicted that 100,000 small businesses across the country will file for bankruptcy and never come back. How are the owners of those doomed enterprises going to pay for their homes? Where will they find work in a seriously crippled economy? Amazon and Walmart can’t hire them all.

The Democrat Party’s answer obviously are never going to to this tsunami of unemployed make it. Restaurants, bars and people is its usual one – “We’ll mom & pop stores especially send them a monthly check for will have a tough time adjusting, a year.” as that MSNBC business But the people who run reporter pointed out. small businesses are by nature He said when he picked up his entrepreneurs.

competitors has reopened. “What do you think that will do to my business?” he said. “Where do you think my clients are going to go?” Closer to home, my wife Colleen is an example of an entrepreneurial woman whose business has been crushed by the global shutdown’s devastating effect on the travel and hospitality industry. After eight years of working for someone else, she opened up her own one-person travel agency in 1998. Needless to say, she hasn’t guided any tours to Europe or anywhere else since March and recently a river cruise in France that she had booked for 50 people in July had to be cancelled by the cruise line. Colleen didn’t seek a rescue loan from the federal government. Like millions of other small business owners out of work through no fault of their own, she doesn’t want a government check. She wants her travel and hospitality industry to return to health just like the mom & pop stores owners want their businesses to reopen.
