Kentucky Castle co-owners Ryan Dawson, Danny Bramer and Matthew Dawson (l-r) had worked together to host a medical conference at the castle for years under previous ownership, before purchasing it last summer. (Not pictured is co-owner Brian Adkins.)
T
he medieval-style stone castle off Versailles Road has long been one of central Kentucky’s most iconic landmarks. Situated on a 50-acre estate and surrounded by a stone wall flanked with turrets, it was little more than an odd roadside attraction for decades. But now – under new ownership and rebranded as The Kentucky Castle — the curious Woodford County property is finally accessible to the public, as a multi-faceted hotel, restaurant and event venue. “We want to be the world’s best farm-to-table restaurant, boutique hotel and event space,” said co-owner Matthew Dawson. Dawson purchased the castle this summer along with his brother Ryan Dawson, whose background is in interior design and event management, Danny Bramer and Brian Adkins. Matthew Dawson and Bramer are both doctors who work for the University of Kentucky, as an emergency room physician and an anesthesiologist, respectively. It was through an annual medical conference, which they hosted for several years at the castle when it was under previous ownership, that they first began to see the estate’s potential as a fully functioning event space. “We began to think, if we can deliver the level of hospitality that people expect at a place like this, we could create a great experience,” said Matt Dawson.

Set on 55 acres of Kentucky countryside, the newly rebranded Kentucky Castle features 13 guest rooms – including four deluxe rooms located in the turrets along the castle walls (left). Plans are in place to add an apiary, a lavender field, cattle, sheep and more to the land, to create a full farm-to-table experience. PHOTOS FURNISHED BY THE KENTUKCY CASTLE (EXCEPT WHERE NOTED)

Originally, the castle was the vision of Rex Martin and his wife, Caroline Bogaert Martin. The couple was enthralled with Europe’s many medieval castles when they traveled there in the 1960s. Upon their return, they purchased 55 acres of Kentucky horse country and began construction in 1969. The build went slowly as plans continued to become increasingly grandiose, and the castle remained unfinished when the Martins divorced in 1979. After the divorce, Rex Martin considered various commercial opportunities but was thwarted by zoning and ordinance issues. Eventually, Martin put the castle up for sale and moved out of state, where he reportedly became more difficult to get ahold of by potential interested buyers. The property sat vacant for another 30 years, and Martin died in 2003 without ever returning to the castle. That same year, Miami lawyer and real estate investor Tom Post bought the castle from Martin’s heirs and began renovations with the intention of creating a vacation home. In May 2004, an electrical fire destroyed most of that work, and Post had to start over. He abandoned his original plan and decided to make the castle a luxury bed-and-breakfast. By 2008 the 50-room “Castle Post” was complete. It saw a moderate amount of success as a bed-and-breakfast and event space, but for most people, the castle remained largely inaccessible. Without investing in tickets to relatively niche events or a pricey overnight room — which were originally priced at $1,000-3,000 a night, though Post dropped those prices by more than half within the first two years of opening — most people didn’t get to see what was behind the stone walls.
Communal spaces inside the castle include the lofted second floor hallway with entrances to most guest rooms (top), a sitting room adjacent to the restaurant’s main dining room (middle) and a ballroom for events with 75150 (bottom). PHOTOS FURNISHED BY THE KENTUCKY CASTLE
The new owners have every intention of changing that. Along with a 13-room boutique hotel, they are creating a complete farm-to-table experience, with plans to eventually grow as much food as possible onsite. An apiary on the castle grounds has been started, and by springtime, owners say to expect to see sheep, goats and chickens grazing in the pasture. While waiting for the fruit and nut trees and truffle orchard to develop, the restaurant Castle Farms is already serving farm-to-table dinners five nights a week (Tues.-Sat.). Local chef and farmer Jason Walls was hired to head up the culinary and farming aspect of the business, with other plans including a pond for aquaculture and lavender gardens to be used for making soap, lip balm and other guest amenities. The castle’s former billiards room is now the Bourbon Hall, a handsome bar that can accommodate about 30 guests for dinners and “Bourbon University” classes with the venue’s bourbon steward-inresidence, Tim Knittel.

Each of the 13 guest rooms has been renovated as well, complete with king beds, vaulted ceilings, new floor and wall coverings and granite countertops. “It’s a little less ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and a little more modern estate,” said Ryan Dawson, adding that more interior renovations are planned for the near future. The deluxe king rooms are ideal for couples or singles, while the second-level corner suites come with a turret for extra lounging or dining space. Guests who really wish to step it up can re serve an entire chalet: two-story suites located in each of the castle’s four exterior turrets, which include two private balconies with farm and courtyard views. One chalet
is ADA-accessible, and the entire property is pet-friendly.
— The Kentucky Castle is well on its way to reinventing itself.
With several indoor event spaces as well as a spacious, breathtaking balcony with panoramic views, the castle has space for events with as few as 10 and as many as 1,000 guests. Many ticketed events hosted at the venue each week are open to the public, including murder-mystery dinners, medieval-themed trivia nights and improv shows. It has also become an increasingly popular wedding venue.
The new owners are proud of the work they’ve done and enjoy sharing the iconic landmark with locals and visitors alike.
With accolades rolling in (Architectural Digest named it the “most beautiful hotel in Kentucky” in November) and over 10 marriage proposals in the past month — including Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz and his girlfriend, Maddie Oberg
“It’s a cool property, and it should be accessible to the public,” said Bramer. “If you want to do a black-tie event, we can do that, or if you want to take a tour and have lunch or attend one of our events like a trivia night or a bourbon class, you can do that, too. We wanted to create something special for Kentucky and something we can all be proud of.” More on the Kentucky Castle can be found at www.thekentuckycastle.com. Castle tours are available on a weekly basis. cc

TREND SETTING Bandleader of the popular, long-running Lexington band The Trendells recounts his adventures with a new book: “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll (With a Little Bit of Soul)”
I
BY MATT WICKSTROM
n his new book “It’s Only Rock ’n Roll With a Little Bit of Soul,” Lexington musician Charlie Shuck recounts his extensive history as a member of various well-known Lexington and Louisville music acts. Perhaps most notably, he was part of the long-running band The Trendells, which played hundreds of gigs over the past 50 years, with a robust history in the Chevy Chase area in particular. First urged to write the book more than a decade ago by Ralph Hacker – the longtime voice of University of Kentucky Athletics – Shuck has filled the book with insight about his successes, adventures and misadventures as a musician and bandleader, and stories and anecdotes that include raucous “Animal House”-style frat parties, bar fights and police run-ins, as well as memorable gigs that include nearly every Kentucky governor’s inauguration party since 1979, as well as performing alongside groups that included The Beach Boys and The Four Seasons.
During their heyday, the Lexington band The Trendells were known for their souland Motowninfused style of rock ‘n’ roll, as well as for their theatrical performances, which featured coordinated choregraphy and matching suits. PHOTOS FURNISHED
Longtime Chevy Chasers might remember The Trendells from their long-standing gig as house band at the former neighborhood bar The Fireplace in the 1980s. Another significant Chevy Chase area tie can be found in the group’s many performances at the popular Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Hospital fundraiser “The Bash.” First booked for The Bash in 1975 by Mary Ann Davis — the wife of J.W. Davis, the Lexington real estate developer responsible for building much of the Lansdowne neighborhood — The Trendells played the event for 27 consecutive years. Historically held after the first home football game every fall, The Bash continually drew massive crowds at its original venue, the Lansdowne Country Club, for many years, though it eventually moved to other much larger venues, from Red Mile to Heritage Hall. (In his book, Shuck recounts tales of intoxicated adults jumping in the Signature Club’s swimming pool, fully clothed, as a possible reason for the event’s relocation.)

Shuck’s early musical aspirations manifested like many do: singing in the shower. His first glimpse into the world of live rock ’n’ roll came during a 1960 show of Louisville band The Sultans, whom he refers to in the book as the “Kings of St. Matthews.� Only 12 years old at the time, Shuck relied on a friend who knew the band’s manager to help sneak them into the gig, which took place at an American Legion post. From their slicked back hair and their snazzy continental suits to the smooth vibes they spread through the crowd, the band blew Shuck away.

“These guys are cool, the chicks are digging on them – and they are getting paid, to boot,� he recalls thinking. The experience stirred something in Shuck, setting a high standard of class, showmanship and professionalism he has continued to strive for throughout his career. Shuck’s first opportunity to perform on stage came soon after his first rock concert, when a friend of his asked Hardy Martin, co-leader and guitarist for a group that was at the time called The Carnations and The Trendells, if Shuck could sing with them during a show at the Louisville Country Club. Martin agreed, and Shuck performed one of his favorite songs, “One Summer Night,� by The Danleers. Despite his nervousness and inexperience, Shuck’s performance earned a round of applause – and kickstarted a 55-year musical career. Within two years, Shuck found himself lead singer for a band called The Night Crawlers, which he was originally invited to join just for a performance at a sock hop at Westport High School. Impressing the crowd (as well as the band) throughout the night during the impromptu show, he was offered a permanent spot in the band at the night’s conclusion. After earning a following around Kentucky and parts of Indiana performing with The Night Crawlers, Shuck got a phone call from the aforementioned Hardy Martin in the spring of 1964, asking him to sit in that night with The Trendells at Club 68 in Lebanon, Kentucky. Shuck, who had studied the band’s music and choreography extensively, fit in like a glove – much to the surprise of the band, which hadn’t realized that Shuck had been studying for this moment for a long time. Within a couple of nights, he was invited to join the band as a permanent fixture.
Charlie Shuck’s performances with The Night Crawlers in the early 1960s earned him a following around Kentucky, as well as the attention of The Trendells, whom he joined permanently in the spring of 1964.

Though he took a break from The Trendells for a number of years in the late ’60s/early ’70s, Shuck reunited many original members of the group in 1973, under the auspice of the The Trendells Reunion Band. That group eventually became known once again as, simply, The Trendells and has operated consistently since then. (The group continues to perform semi-regularly, with annual appearances at Thursday Night Live, regular appearances at Kentucky governor’s inaugurations and other gigs at events of various scales.) Even though the group saw its share of rowdy gigs over the years – including regular gigs at Club 68, a venue that was known in its day for regularly hosting 20-plus person bar fights, complete with broken beer bottles and a chicken-wire-screen that would lower in front to the stage to protect the performers – The Trendells continually maintained a high level of class, Shuck recalls, with early leaders Hardy Martin and Ray Allen running the band like a national act. Members turned in their uniforms after every weekend of shows to be taken to the dry cleaners, and rode to shows in snazzy Mercury Park Lane automobiles. The band’s style was augmented with choreography and other performance attributes that continued to stick with and define Shuck throughout his career. “We were pretty polished – I’ve been saying for many years that people often hear with their eyes as well,” Shuck said. “We did the choreography like The Temptations, like The Four Tops, like The Spinners. We did some advanced stuff, and I think that’s what separated us from a lot of other regional bands.”

So, when Hacker – the announcer with whom Shuck worked closely for years at The Bash and other events – started to prod him to write a book detailing his vast and unique adventures as a member of one of the region’s most memorable musical acts, eventually the idea stuck. Shuck enlisted the help of experienced Georgetown-based author Michael Crisp (author of “The Kentucky Bucket List” and other books) for assistance with the overall process, from writing to editing to publishing the book, which was came out in December. “We’ve been very blessed and fortunate to have an incredibly rich history for a regional band,” Shuck said. And now, that history is out in the world for others to enjoy as well. “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll With A Little Bit of Soul” is available locally at Joseph-Book Booksellers and online at Amazon.com. cc

Cross Gate Gallery framing specialist Mary Phillips PHOTO BY DANIEL SIGAL
A Proper Send-Off
After 40 years with Bell Court neighborhood gallery Cross Gate Gallery, beloved framing specialist Mary Phillips is turning in her badge
STORY BY SARAYA BREWER WITH REPORTING ASSISTANCE FROM ALEX HUBER
he year was 1978, and Mary Phillips – a former stayat-home mom, whose children had grown and moved away – was bored. She had spent the past two years working part-time at working in the framing department of Sutherland’s Antiques, but when the business sold, she found herself out of a job. Sick of filling her days with housework, Phillips went to get coffee one day with a friend,
who told her, “if I ever knew two people that need each other, it’s you and Greg Ladd.” Ladd was in the process of building Cross Gate Gallery, an art gallery he had started out of his parents’ garage a few years prior. After making the connection that she had known Ladd’s wife, Laura, for years – Laura had gone to school with Phillips’ oldest son – Phillips gave him a call. She started working at the original Cross Gate location on High Street shortly thereafter. And the rest, as they say, is history. “Mary was and has been the stability at Cross Gate,” Ladd said. “In the early days, I was just out of college and newly married – I was running around trying to get the business off the
ground. Mary was the rock we all depended on.” Today, after 40 years working for Cross Gate Gallery, which moved to Forest Avenue and Bell Court in 2000. the beloved local framing specialist is hanging up her hat – two years shy of her 90th birthday. “These kids have kept me young,” said Phillips, 88, of her coworkers, several of whom she has worked alongside for decades. Be that as it may, she has been like a mother to everyone at Cross Gate since she first started – clients and employees alike. From her familiar post at the Cross Gate framing table, where she has helped hundreds of clients frame treasured art and photographs, Phillips has quietly watched generations of Lexingtonians grow up – both in their family pictures and gallery visits. She has helped grandparents and grandchildren pick out frames, guiding their choices in her humble, subtle way, all the while nurturing her co-workers and clients with her welcoming smile and matronly demeanor.
“I used to borrow money from her for lunch when she first started,” Ladd said. “He always paid me back,” Phillips added with a wink. Phillips said she is looking forward to spending more time with her grandchildren and greatgrandchildren – and no longer having to brave the weather on Saturday mornings to get to work. But saying good-bye to the business that has become a second home for the past four decades is certainly a bittersweet occasion. “To me, it was the choice place to work,” she continued. “I just love them all so.” cc
Cross Gate Gallery will host a farewell retirement party for Mary Phillips on Tuesday, March 20, from 4-6 p.m.; friends and clients of Phillips and the gallery are invited to come give her a proper send-off.

5 GREAT WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE (WITHOUT DIGGING IN THE DIRT) STORY BY SARAYA BREWER, WITH TIPS FROM: KYLE ADAMSON (RED OAK OUTDOOR LIGHTING) WES KING (KING’S GARDEN CENTER) SCOTT PFEIFFER (SCOTT PFEIFFER AND CO.) WENDY MCALISTER (NATURE’S EXPRESSIONS) JON CARLOFTIS (JON CARLOFTIS FINE GARDENS)
March tends to be that month where we Kentuckians start to get the first real teasings of springtime: Green buds are popping up in the dirt, temperatures are slowly rising, garden centers are reopening. But still being a couple months away from the last danger of frost, it really is just that – a tease – for gardeners who are anxious to whip their yards into shape. Rest assured, it’s a great time of year to get started on plenty of projects, large and small. We’ve tapped five local experts to help provide tips, guidance and inspiration for great ways to ready your outdoor living spaces – all of which don’t involve digging in the dirt.
While lush with plantings during warm weather months, the garden at Botherum – the historic Lexington home of landscape designer Jon Carloftis, pictured here –illustrates lots of other ways to enhance an outdoor living space, from paths and walkways to sculptures, container gardens, seating areas and more.

If you’re looking for something to just provide the soothing sound of water, a simple tabletop fountain might do the trick. If you’re looking for a feature that will provide significant visual appeal as well as noise, you might consider a standalone cast stone fountain or a more permanent running-water feature that fish, plants and kids can all enjoy. Location. Most tabletop and standalone fountains can be moved if necessary, but it’s still important to have the right spot, King said – and of course, once ponds and waterfalls are installed, the decision is typically a permanent one. Whatever your fountain’s size, King recommends locating it away from falling leaves.
INSTALL A FOUNTAIN OR OTHER WATER FEATURE Water features can be a great way to create movement, sound and structure into a space, especially when a focal point is needed. “Not only do fountains provide great visual interest, they also provide that soothing sound to create a true garden experience,” said Wes King, owner of King’s Garden Center. “Fountains are often used to make a conversation piece on a table, draw people’s attention to a certain area, create movement in an
20
otherwise dull area or dress up the ‘concrete jungle.’”
Price point. Backyard water features are available in a wide range of price points, from about $100 for a tabletop fountain to $5,000-plus for an in-ground pond or waterfall.
“If you are looking for a cheap way to get started with a water feature, try plugging up a ceramic pot, filling it with water and adding a ‘Pot Fountain Kit,’” King suggested. “This is a great way to see if you will enjoy having a larger, more expensive style.” Maintenance varies greatly among each style of water features, but King recommends treating any water feature with an algaecide that’s safe for both fish and plants. King’s Garden Center is central Kentucky’s largest locally owned garden center, providing a large selection of flowers, edible plants, perennials, trees and shrubs, as well as a large selection of Campania cast stone fountains and statuary, a full gift shop, ceramic grills and Kentucky Proud products.
Options for bringing water to your backyard range from something simple like a tabletop water feature to a cast stone fountain or an in-ground pondless waterfall – and all have their pros and cons, King said. Three things to consider when choosing a water feature are function, location and price point, said King. Below, he has helped provide more detailed things to consider on each of these aspects. Functionality. “What do you want your water feature to accomplish?” is one of the first questions to ask yourself when considering adding a water feature to your yard or garden.

CREATE AN INTIMATE SEATING AREA Focusing on an individual area designed for dining, entertaining or relaxing can be a fun and manageable approach to enhancing your overall outdoor living space. Utilizing a base of pavers, brick, natural stone or wood, seating areas can be further customized and augmented with outdoor lighting, furniture, containers and other accessories, to create a cohesive, functional and beautiful place to enjoy morning coffee, evening cocktails or dinner with friends and family. Scott Pfeiffer, owner of the fullservice landscaping company Scott Pfeiffer & Co., specializes in helping clients utilize hardscaping to create these types of spaces in their yards. He’s outlined some tips for setting up intimate seating areas in your own yard. Brighten up your hardscaping materials. Have you ever looked outside at your patio and felt cold just looking at it? Unpredictable Kentucky weather aside, hardscape material – pavers, stone, and wood – can have a chilling effect on the senses, as the majority of them are in a cool color range. Softening the rigid architectural lines and brightening areas with warm accent colors can invoke a sense of welcome and comfort, Pfeiffer says.
Choose your furniture (and upholstery) wisely. Furniture selection is one of the first and most important aspects of defining the aesthetic and functionality of an outdoor space. Consider whether the area will be used for dining, lounging or both, and choose furniture that will serve the functionality you seek. “Don’t be afraid to decorate with couches, coffee tables and end tables – but keep in mind that

too much furniture can make a space feel smaller, while too little furniture will leave something to be desired,” Pfeiffer said. The trick, he added, is to make sure you can move freely through the space without having the sensation you are floating in the ocean on a life raft. After selecting your furniture, it is time to bring in some color. Whether it’s the furniture itself or a nicely patterned upholstery, this can be a great chance to be bold and make a statement. “Remember, a little goes a long way,” Pfeiffer said. Accent Your Seating Area with Potted Plants, Lighting and Accessories. Containers provide another chance to impress, and a brightly glazed, patio pot can be the talk of your next garden party. Plant selections and flower colors should always complement the pot. If you prefer to let the plants make the statement, go with a subtler pot selection, Pfeiffer suggests. “As most of us entertain in the evenings, lighting is never to be overlooked,” Pfeiffer said.
“A porch light can be harsh and blind your guests, while carefully designed landscape lighting can wrap your space with warm accents.” When designed properly, the ambient light will be functional, helping to create the perfect mood for your gathering. Finally, Pfeiffer says, it’s time to add your “piece de la resistance” – an accent piece that complements the space and showcases your personal style. Pulling from design styles used indoors can help create a seamless transition that will not go unnoticed, he said. “Whether it is a brightly colored outdoor mirror, an appropriately placed sculpture or a bold piece of artwork, give your guests a conversation piece that they will be talking about long after your party has ended,” he said. Scott Pfeiffer and Company is a full-service Lexington-based landscape design, install and maintenance firm committed to developing and maintaining common sense landscape designs that are inspiring, as well as funcional.

CREATE INVITING PATHS AND WALKWAYS According to Wendy McAlister, a landscape architect with Nature’s Expressions Landscape Design and Construction, the first step in incorporating a walkway into your garden or yard is to consider not only where you are going, but why. Does the path simply enhance the experience or aesthetic of a space, or is it a functional item that you would use daily? Paths and walkways ultimately require a destination or experience, and these questions will inform your paving choice, size and direction, McAlister added. “The path that takes you, say, from your porch to your garage is a frequent walkway, and should be constructed out of a sturdy material such as stone, concrete or paver,” she said. “It should also be wider and efficient in direction.” A path that takes you into your backyard garden, however, can be smaller and more wandering in its direction, with appropriate materials including small stepping stones or gravel. Other visual paths that direct the eye to certain focal points are often linear – and because they lack mystery, they don’t really require you to actively go to the
destination. These paths are often made from turf. Below, with the help of McAlister, we have outlined a handful of possible material options – a landscape design expert can provide more details on these and other options that will best suit your path’s purpose. Stone is generally the most expensive option, and it consistently looks great. Because it is a natural material, it’s typical to see some pieces shale off in winter, but because the material below it matches, it is generally not a big deal, McAlister said (though she does not recommend using slate). “Be sure to pay attention to color choice on this, as a dark color stone will be hotter than a light color stone,” she added – this can be great when you want the snow to melt but not ideal if you plan to be barefoot in the summer. Pavers are a good mid-level choice: typically less expensive to install than masonry options, and longer lasting, if installed correctly. While the huge range of styles and colors among pavers can make the choice daunting, McAlister said most of her clients end up choosing an option that has been around for a long time and will continue being manufactured in the future, which allows for ease when it comes to additions or restoration projects. “This choice is typically found to be the most ‘bang for your buck,’ due to its ability to stand the test of time and its ability to be repaired with minimal costs,” she said.
Paths and walkways can enhance both the aesthetic and the functionality of your backyard space. Taking into consideration where the path is going – and why – can help inform decisions on materials and form. PHOTOS FURNISHED FROM NATURE’S EXPRESSIONS
Brick is generally less expensive than stone but more than pavers; because it is a porous material, it can get mossy in shady areas and requires some maintenance over time – and could need to be redone altogether. That is typically a relatively inexpensive process. Concrete and stamped concrete are both good economy materials for walkways, though both are prone to cracking. Stepping stones, which can be set in mulch or in turf, are meant
to be informal and used for pathways that might go through the garden or on paths that you don’t use often. As for other factors to keep in mind, McAlister reminds us that there are many ways to get to your design destination. “There is no one right answer, just the best answer for you,” she said – and that best answer includes your “why” as well as your budget and functionality requirements. The Nicholasville-based company Nature’s Expressions has been in business for more than 20 years, with a focus on landscape design and construction services. Using a four-step process – consult, design, construct and maintain – the company creates outdoor living spaces unique to the vision and lifestyle of its clients.

design phases of other significant outdoor projects – such as installing new walks, patios or seating walls, or having a pool or other water features designed and installed – can ultimately save homeowners time and money, Adamson said. “A lighting designer can locate wire runs during the design and construction phase,” Adamson said. “The placement of a twodollar PVC pipe at the beginning can save the homeowner hundreds of dollars in the end.”
SPRUCE UP YOUR OUTDOOR LIGHTING While a homeowner might choose to spruce up his or her outdoor lighting for many reasons, according to local outdoor lighting expert Kyle Adamson, the impetus typically falls under one of three categories: aesthetics, security and safety. “Outdoor lighting has the potential to completely change the look and feel of a home’s exterior and landscape at night,” said Adamson. “A seemingly normal tree or outdoor space can come alive with lighting.” Front-yard lighting typically focuses on curb appeal and security, he added, while the back tends to focus on enhancing the look and functionality of the place where people spend more time relaxing and entertaining. With a degree in landscaping architecture, Adamson started the company Red Oak Design in 2006, but after a decade of experience with a variety of beautiful full-scale, start-to-finish landscape projects, in 2016 he rebranded the company – now called Red Oak Outdoor Lighting – to have a true outdoor lighting
focus. He said the change was precipitated by working on so many beautiful homes, landscapes and outdoor spaces that were not able to be viewed or enjoyed at night. “I was always amazed how outdoor lighting was rarely discussed, and when it was, it was an afterthought,” Adamson said. “I wanted to change that thinking and show clients the possibilities.”
Outdoor lighting has the potential to dramatically change the aesthetics of your home exterior at night, making otherwise normal trees or outdoor spaces “come alive,” says Red Oak Outdoor Lighting founder and owner Kyle Adamson. PHOTOS PROVIDED BY RED OAK OUTDOOR LIGHTING
Consider outdoor lighting at the beginning of other home improvement projects. As with most home improvement projects where budget might be a concern, installing a large-scale lighting project in phases can help alleviate those concerns. But consulting with an outdoor lighting expert during the early
Establish a plan and schedule for maintaining your outdoor lighting system. The best designed and installed lighting systems need to be maintained, Adamson said – fixtures should be checked, lenses cleaned and aiming adjustments made at least once a year. Additionally, as the landscape matures, you may have to carefully prune plant material or move the fixture so the effect continues to be as it was intended. Fortunately, Adamson added, improved LED technology over the past decade has eliminated the need to switch out lamps every year, reducing normal maintenance costs greatly. Red Oak Outdoor Lighting is an award-winning outdoor lighting company based in Lexington. From intimate courtyards to horse farms and large estates, the company has provided custom outdoor lighting design, installation and service throughout the state since 2006.
Whether you are looking to enhance your outdoor lighting system for security, aesthetics or safety, here are a few key things Adamson recommends – many of which can be applied to other substantial home improvement projects as well. Hire an expert. With Kentucky’s four distinct seasons, lighting changes and evolves over the year. Outdoor lighting experts are in a unique position to foresee these natural changes to the landscape and understand how landscapes will mature and are equipped with the knowledge to best illuminate your landscape accordingly.

Local landscape designer Jon Carloftis said working on rooftop gardens in New York City for more than 20 years taught him to design focal points of outside space from inside the house. This view of his home garden from inside his historic Lexington property, Botherum, is a perfect example. PHOTO BY CAROLINE ALLISON FOR GARDEN & GUN
Potted Plants and Container Gardens. “Container gardens are an easy answer to what many folks have: bad soil,” Carloftis said. “Containers are quick and easy, and with a little reading, you can ‘create’ the right soil for whatever you want to grow.”
INCORPORATE POTTED PLANTS, CONTAINER GARDENS, SCULPTURES AND OTHER DECORATIVE OBJECTS Those familiar with the work of Jon Carloftis are likely to agree there are few who understand the art of seamless indoor/outdoor transition better than him. The local landscape designer – who has a keen eye for interior design as well – frequently utilizes potted plants, container gardens and unique found objects to give his projects depth and dimension and help tie together indoor and outdoor living, whether he’s working on a client project or his own home garden. When determining the location of potted plants, sculptures and other items of visual importance in a garden, Carloftis recommends positioning them as both a focal point in the garden and from the house, where they can be viewed from windows or through doors. “One of the most important things I learned working on rooftop gardens in New York City was designing from inside the house,” he said.
26
Sculpture and Found Objects. “Sculptures can bring interest to a plain and dreary garden every day of the year,” said Carloftis. When envisioning ways to incorporate decorative objects into a garden, he says that thinking outside the box of what is typically thought of as “garden sculpture” can open new windows of possibility for beautiful and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. Visible from Carloftis’ own kitchen window is a limestone facade of a dog’s face, which he drilled a hole in to allow the dog’s mouth to function as a fountain spout. (Purchased from Longshadow Garden Ornaments, one of Carloftis’ favorite companies, the limestone dog mask is in the same line as the stone farm animal masks that adorn the fountain outside the restaurant Honeywood at Summit at Fritz Farm, also designed by Carloftis.) Anything from decoratively pruned fruit trees to salvaged
architectural pieces or other interesting antique items can be used for added visual interest in a garden, Carloftis said, pointing to the vintage farm equipment he incorporated into the Man O’ War entrance of the Summit development as an example. The equipment was sanded and painted silver to give it a more modern feel – something he said could easily be done on a smaller scale in a private home. Repurposed pieces, such as troughs, antique sinks or bathtubs, or an old zinc water tank with the top cut off, can create vintage or industrial statements and can sometimes even double as containers. “When you use something that has meaning to you or your family, all the better,” he said. “Putting it on a pedestal – a traditional one or even a big block of stone or a tree stump – give height and importance.” Tip: Rub moss on a brand new, store-bought stone sculpture to give it a more worn or aged look.
Containers and potted plants can be used to mark entrances, flank walkways and create added importance or focal areas in special areas of a garden. Referred to by Carloftis as “nature’s makeup,” they can also be moved around easily to block a view or frame a view or entrance. Carloftis’ own home garden (the historic Lexington property Botherum) makes use of loads of containers, with the plantings updated and switched out as the seasons change. During coldweather months, branches from yellow- and red-twig dogwoods inserted in terra cotta pots to create visual interest in an otherwise dreary winter garden; the branches are replaced by pansies in early spring, and Mandevillas or other showy, heat-tolerant plants once the weather starts heating up. Keeping the garden, which wraps around the home and is visible from most windows, looking refreshed during all seasons has the potential to affect your experience from inside the house as well. “This year, because of the super cold weather, we decided to put birdseed in the container with the twigs – it has been a pure joy to watch all of nature going on outside the window,” he said. Interestingly, Carloftis said his favorite place to find containers and other garden treasures in a big-box garden or other supply store is not the garden container section – as big-box garden containers often look cheap – but the wastebasket section.

“Once at Target, I found all of these chrome metal waste cans that looked exactly like Julep cups,” he said. “They lasted for years.” Of course, he added, while box stores typically have larger selections to choose from, the benefits of shopping locally tend to outweigh that aspect – when shopping at your favorite local nursery or garden center, “you find people who know their stuff, give expert advice and your money stays in town,” he said. Tip: When you bring indoor plants outdoors for the summer after the danger of frost, don’t put them directly into full sun or they will scorch – they have to move slowly from shade to less shade before they are ready for full sun. Sometimes indoor plants can get buggy, so during those above-freezing, rainy winter days, Carloftis recommends carrying plants outside for a day or two of “spa” time. “This makes a huge difference,” he said. “There is nothing like rain to make plants happy.” Visit this article online for a list of some of Carloftis’ favorite potted plants, for indoors and out. Jon Carloftis is an award-winning garden designer who moved back home to Kentucky after 26 years in New York City. His book “Beyond the Windowsill” focuses on ways to use indoor plants and add style to your home through color, texture and containers.

Carloftis adds complexity to his home garden at Botherum with a blend of antique items, traditional stone sculptures (rubbed with fresh moss for an “aged” look) and other unique objects.

CHEVY CHASER’S DRINK OF THE MONTH
INDIGO VESPER
RECIPE BY COLE’S 735 MAIN INTRO AND PHOTO BY THERESA STANLEY
Bottled-in-bond is a term familiar among many in the Kentucky “spirits” community, referring to a certain category of whiskies. This cocktail, however, is a nod to a different kind of bond: James Bond, and the popular “Vesper martini” referred to in the 2006 adaptation of the film “Casino Royale.” The Indigo Vesper is a riff on a classic martini – stirred, never shaken – that showcases an assortment of botanicals as well as an impressive violet-hued gin infused with butterfly pea blossoms. Created at the local restaurant Cole’s 735 Main, the cocktail ushers in the look and feel of springtime in the Bluegrass.
Pro tip: Before making the cocktail, chill martini glass by placing ice cubes and cold water in the glass. Pour out the ice water when ready to strain cocktail. Recipe makes one exquisite martini. Cheers!
Ingredients: • 2 ounces Empress 1908 Indigo gin • 1 ounces vodka • 1/2 ounce Lillet Blanc • 1/4 whole lemon • Lemon peel twist
Method: To a cocktail shaker, add gin, vodka, Lillet Blanc and squeeze of lemon. Add ice and stir until well chilled. Strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish with lemon twist. cc

OBSERVATIONS
Close to the End
S
BY HARRIETT ROSE everal of my regular readers have observed that my usual column was missing in last month’s issue of the Chevy Chaser. They have commented that they missed it and hoped I haven’t retired. My response of running of out of subjects generated some suggestions – none of which enlivened my brain and computer fingers – except one.
Several writers and artists have shared their talents while living at Hanover, and we have shown our work at two or three in-house art shows. Joe Graves is a fairly recent addition to our residents whom I have known since I was a practice teacher in music at the University of Kentucky Training School. I was 19; he was probably 10. Some 60 years later, we were both enrolled in a writing class for seniors at the Carnegie Center. It was he who suggested that I might want to do book reviews. (I didn’t!) We’ve talked about books since he and his lovely wife, Hart, came to live here, but there had never been a mention of his book nor had I heard he had written one. But one day last week, Hart called, saying Joe wanted to bring me something. I ungraciously said, “Come, but don’t stay. I’m working on my taxes and I’m not dressed!” So, they dropped off Joe’s book. For the rest of the day, no tax data was collected – I just read the book, “Cumberland Island Saved.” Do I care about saving an island I never heard of? I certainly didn’t – but a great deal kept me fascinated. Cumberland Island is the largest of the barrier islands along the stretch of Atlantic Coast from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, to Talbot Island, Florida. In 1881, more than 10,000 acres were owned by Tom Carnegie, the son of William Carnegie, who had entered the United States as immigrant from Scotland in 1848, along with his wife and two sons. Tom had nearly completed his homestead in 1885, naming it Dungeness, when he died, leaving Lucy a widow with nine children. One of them was Nancy, who became Joe Graves’ grandmother. Joe represented those shares on behalf of his mother in the long and complicated negotiations that finally led to ownership by the National Park Foundation. Why was I so fascinated by the book? Partly by its gossipy names – especially who was kin to whom, among people I had known but not known about them. Also, all the machinations by political figures – how wills and trusts can be manipulated so that they no longer are what the will purported. I was never in that particular world, but before reading this book I had certainly thought I was more knowledgeable than I actually was. But I didn’t want to be like the child who says, “I don’t need to learn that – I’m never going to use it!” cc

EVENTS CALENDAR MARCH ARTS & CULTURE EVENT LISTINGS
CONCERTS & GIGS WRFL Birthday Bash. March 2-4. The University of Kentucky student-run radio station WRFL first hit the airwaves on March 7, 1988, and the station is hosting a lineup of concerts and other special events to celebrate 30 years of “Radio Free Lexington.” In true college-radio fashion, a three-day stint at The Burl features an eclectic lineup of downtempo electronica, chillwave, hip hop, experimental noise and old-fashioned rock ‘n’ roll. Acts range from Washed Out – the Georgia-based electronic act responsible for the theme song to the popular show “Portlandia” – and Brooklyn-based indie band Cults, to several reunions of local acts, including 10-Foot Pole and Nine Pound Hammer. Shows take place Friday and Saturday evenings and Sunday from noon-5 p.m., with Idiot Glee, Hair Police, Johnny Conqueroo and more filling out the bill. The Burl, 375 Thompson Road. www. theburlky.com (859) 447-8166. Tickets and full details available at www.wrfl.fm Southern Accents: Tom Petty Tribute. March 2. Southern Accents is a Nashville-based Tom Petty tribute show, named after Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers’ sixth album. 8 p.m. Manchester Music Hall, 899 Manchester St. www.manchestermusichall.com. (859) 537-7321 Town Mountain. March 2. Raw, soulful and full of swagger, Town Mountain is a group known for its hard-driving sound, its in-house songwriting and a honky-tonk edge that permeates its live performances. The band describes the hearty base of its music as the bluegrass triumvirate of Bill Monroe, Lester

Flatt and Earl Scruggs, along with the Grateful Dead and the ethereal lyrics of Robert Hunter, to the honest, vintage country of Willie, Waylon and Merle. 8 p.m. Cosmic Charlie’s, 723 National Ave. www.cosmic-charlies.com. (859) 333-4817 The Nude Party/Caroline Rose. March 6. An obsession with money, an unfaithful lover, a friend’s accidental pregnancy, misogyny, loneliness and death are just some of the lighthearted subject matter that make up “Loner” – the darkly comedic second album from songwriter/ producer Caroline Rose. She’ll perform alongside the Boone, North Carolina-based band The Nude Party, which gained its namesake literally and has been
described as “bonded by isolation, house party debauchery, a religion based on pushing the limits of bad taste, and a precocious predisposition towards the Kinks, the Animals and the Velvets.” 8 p.m. Cosmic Charlie’s, 723 National Ave. www.cosmiccharlies.com. (859) 333-4817 Aaron Lee Tasjan/Dyan LeBlanc. March 9. East Nashville-based musician Aaron Lee Tasjan considers himself a songwriter first and foremost, writing his own off-kilter folk-inflected songs since he picked up his first acoustic as a teen guitar prodigy. Alabama native Dylan LeBlanc’s new album, “Cautionary Tale,” is a collection of shimmering, arresting songs with haunting vocals that have caught the attention
of Lucinda Williams and Bruce Springsteen – though they now have a sharpened edge honed by hastened maturity. 8 p.m. The Burl, 375 Thompson Road. www. theburlky.com (859) 447-8166 Origins Jazz Series: Raleigh Dailey. March 10. Local jazz guru Raleigh Dailey’s works have been performed and recorded by numerous college, university, military and professional jazz ensembles. The recipient of the Kentucky Arts Council’s Al Smith Fellowship for Musical Composition, Dailey’s most recent chamber works are the “Sonata for Alto Saxophone” and “Piano and Conversations for Trombone and Piano”; 7:30 p.m. Tee Dee’s Lounge, 266 East Second St. www.originsjazz.org

Langhorne Slim

The songs on Langhorne Slim’s newest album, “Lost at Last Vol. 1” challenge the idea of social rigidity – the attitude that there’s a “correct” way for us to live and a side we should be on. His music has been described as “a mix of soul-shout revival, Americana introspection and the ’50s-evoking jams.” 8 p.m. The Burl, 375 Thompson Road. www.theburlky.com (859) 447-8166 The Werks. March 14. Originating from Dayton, Ohio, and noted for their musical improvisation, The Werks produce a psychedelic dance party informed by vintage psychedelia, rock, funk and “jamtronica,” which can be appreciated by various musical tastes. 8 p.m. Cosmic Charlie’s, 723 National Ave. www.cosmic-charlies.com. (859) 333-4817 Gangstagrass. March 16. Bluegrass/hiphop may sound like an odd combination, but don’t tell that to producer Rench, who conceived the sound of Gangstagrass in 2006. Though it began as an isolated experi-
ment, Gangstagrass has since grown into a critically acclaimed success celebrated by The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, TVGuide, Elmore Leonard and NPR.org. 9:30 p.m. Willie’s Locally Known, 286 Southland Drive. www.willieslocallyknown.com (859) 281-1116 Soulful Space presents David Wax Museum. March 17. David Wax Museum is a folk and roots rock band blending traditional Mexican folk music with Americana in what critics have called “Mexo-Americana.” With NPR hailing them as “pure, irresistible

While the presenting organization, Soulful Space, normally hosts concerts at the Church of Good Shepherd, this show will be held at the St. Michael the Archangel Episcopal Church, 2025 Bellefonte Drive. 8 p.m. www.thesoulfulspace.com

Ask Mitski Miyawaki about happiness and she’ll warn you: “Happiness f***s you.” It’s a lesson that’s been writ large into the New Yorker’s artsy, gritty, outsider-indie for years but never so powerfully as on her most recent album, “Puberty 2,” a both beautiful and brutal romantic hinterland, in which one of America’s new voices hits a brave new stride. 7 p.m. The Burl, 375 Thompson Road. www.theburlky.com (859) 447-8166

ART & EXHIBITS Gallery Hop. March 16. This monthly event brings thousands of locals and visitors together to celebrate art throughout the evening. Dozens of local galleries, museums and non-traditional exhibit spaces will be open to the public, with each site presenting a new exhibit for each hop. Many will have food and drink available. 5-8 p.m. Various locations. A list of venues and an interactive map can be found at www.galleryhoplex.com Art as Life Partner: A Retrospective by Jaqui Linder. On display through March 31. Jaqui Linder, a 2017 Kentucky Foundation for Women grant recipient, is a self-taught multi-media artist and writer. This exhibit is a debut of 14 of her major artworks and the stories behind them. Jaqui’s motivation to create is “need,” her emotional response to life and her personal struggles as a
female, in particular. The process of making things – and learning how on her own – has been for her a reliable vehicle for self-study and self-healing and a “powerful way to vent, teach, celebrate, and love.” Artist reception, March 16, 5-8 p.m., with Gallery Hop. Meet the Artist Saturdays, March 24 and 31, 1-3 p.m. Gallery hours: Tues.-Fri., noon-5 p.m.; Sat., 1-4 p.m. and by appointment. M.S.

F.M.era: 30 Years of WRFL. March 16. This exhibition highlights 30 years’ worth of ephemera form the University of Kentucky college radio station WRFL – from RiFLe program guides and zines, to t-shirts, stickers, posters, postcards and more.

The exhibit takes place in the upstairs “Meeting Room” gallery, formerly known as the “Community Gallery,” and will be open to the public for two dates only: March 3 (12 to 4 p.m., in conjunction with a reception honoring current and past station DJs and staff) and a closing reception on March 16 (5 -8 p.m., in conjunction with Gallery

KENTUCKY DELI
Broadway Live: “Jersey Boys.” March 1-4. This 2006 Tony, Grammy and Olivier Award-winning Best Musical is about the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famers The Four Seasons: Frankie Valli, Bob Gaudio, Tommy DeVito and Nick Massi. It’s the true story of how four blue-collar kids became one of the greatest successes in pop music history: writing their own songs, inventing their own sounds and selling 175 million records worldwide, all before the age of 30. Showtimes are 8 p.m. Thurs. and Fri.; 2 and 8 p.m. Sat.; 1 p.m. Sun. Lexington Opera House, 401 W. Short St. www.lexingtonoperahouse.com. (859) 233-4567 Studio Players: “Stage Kiss.” March 8-11; 16-18; 23-25. Art imitates life; life imitates art. When two actors with a history are thrown together as romantic leads in a forgotten 1930s melodrama, they quickly lose touch with reality as the story onstage follows them offstage. “Stage Kiss” captures Sarah Ruhl’s singular voice. A charming tale about what happens when lovers share a stage kiss – or when actors share a real one. Showtimes are 8 p.m. Fri. and Sat.; 2:30 p.m. Sun. Carriage House Theater, 154 W. Bell Court. www.studioplayers.org (859) 225-0370 Kentucky Ballet Theatre: Director’s Showcase. March 23-25.
