Utah Workers Must be Protected in Fossil Fuels Phaseout SALT LAKE CITY - As Utah's energy sector continues to struggle in the new coronavirus pandemic, a new report outlines how policymakers can diversify states' revenue streams and begin phasing out reliance on fossil fuels.

The study, from the Stockholm Environment Institute, says the effects of climate change will inevitably force countries to move away from carbon-based sources of energy. Report co-author and institute Senior Scientist Sivan Kartha says the process of phasing out fossil fuels may be necessary, but doesn't have to be chaotic.

"States like Utah and Wyoming, Colorado, thankfully have fantastic resources as far as tourism," says Kartha. "And there are other industries that are currently thriving in those states, but not at the scale that oil and gas is."

Coffee Shop Talk

Three Consecutive Owners of Castle Rock Coffee Share Stories about Food, Coffee & Business

by Veronica egan

insider

Beth Rumsey, Shauna Sudbury and Kathy Raab, consecutive owners of Torrey's Castle Rock Coffee, share a few moments at the Castle Rock counter, flanking the Carimali espresso machine.

TORREY - Let’s get the “newsy” part of this story out of the way.

Castle Rock Coffee, one of Torrey’s seasonal anchor businesses, has a new owner.

Beth Rumsey, who also owns and operates The Wild Rabbit Cafe, has just purchased the business from Shauna Sudbury.

It’s a fitting transition.

Rumsey agreed that a little write up about Castle Rock’s changeover would be nice. Then she added a thoughtful ingredient to the pot: how about a story about the passing of ownership of a local business among three women?

That sounded good.

So, over a late morning snack of fresh chocolate chip

cookies and scones, and, of course, coffee, the three consecutive owners of Castle Rock: founding owner Kathy Raab, Shauna Sudbury and Beth Rumsey, shared a few laughs and thoughts about food at one of the outdoor picnic tables at Wild Rabbit Cafe.

SOUTHERN UTAH The RESEP (Radiation Exposure Screening and Education Program) clinic from Dixie Regional Medical Center will be holding public informational meetings in multiple southern Utah towns/cities on June 18, 19 and 20. These meetings are to inform the public that the RECA law is set to expire in July 2022.

The term "downwinder" is used to describe the more than 60,000 people who were exposed to radioactive fallout in southern Utah during the nuclear testing at the Nevada Test Site. Local residents are encouraged to come have their questions answered about the program and its requirements. Information will be given about the RECA compensation ($50,000 for qualifying "downwinders") and its scheduled expiration.

Applications and information will be available to get anyone who qualifies started on the compensation process.

Meetings will be held at the following dates and sites: • Thursday, June 18, 2020 - Escalante Multi-Purpose Civic Center, 85 N. 100 W., 7:00 - 8:00 p.m.

• Friday, June 19, 2020 - Loa Community Center, 98 W. Center Street, 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.

Public Meetings

WAYNE COUNTY Commissioners Brian and Blackburn, Sheriff Dan Jensen, County Attorney Mike Olsen, Emergency Services Director Jeanie Webster, Emergency Medical Services Director Michael Stephenson and County Clerk Ryan Torgerson present.

Following the prayer and pledge, the first agenda item was a presentation by Fred Christiansen about the Paiute ATV Trail Committee's (PTC) recent trail improvements, primarily on Parker Mountain and near surrounding communities. An extensive PowerPoint, with maps and photos, was shown, along with an enumeration of the many kiosks, trail signs, trail counters and other items displayed. Altogether, there are 539 miles of designated trails in the Parker Mountain area; as well as around the towns of Loa, Fremont, Koosharem, Otter Creek, Antimony, Angle and Greenwich. Kiosks in the towns and on the trails contain information on history, wildlife, agriculture and the surrounding landscape and are a real asset for the recre-

ating public, as well as helping them to identify and stay on the designated trails. The Paiute Trails Committee has received a grant to support their Youth Helmet Program.

If a youth is found to be driving an ORV without a helmet, he/she is given a certificate for a free helmet. The PTC and volunteers also assist in producing four jamborees in Wayne County. The PTC is looking for more volunteers to help complete the signage and trail marking projects.

Mr. Christiansen asked the commissioners for a letter of support for the work of the PTC, which was approved.

Next on the agenda, Mike Potter requested a Conditional Use Permit to mine gravel north of Loa. The permit was approved. Commissioners next signed a Bookmobile agreement in which Wayne County would receive a refund of $15,260 from the state, or 50% of what it had spent on the library and the Bookmobile in 2019.

A crowd of nearly 100 participants, organized by a Pegboard post by Tina Karlsson and Scott Aho of Boulder, marched from the Town Park Pavilion in Boulder to the Burr Trail Road and back in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Marchers held signs and passing vehicles honked in support.

BOULDER - On Friday, June 5, in response to worldwide protests over the killing of George Floyd, a black male, by a Minneapolis police officer, nearly 100 Boulder and Escalante residents took to the streets in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter Movement.

Widespread protests in all fifty states and in countries

worldwide have sparked debate over racial injustice and police brutality and have led to calls of major reforms and in some cases, calls to defund police departments.

Wanting to show their support, Boulderites decided to hold a demonstration of their own.

Organizers Tina Karlsson and Scott Aho placed an in-

vitation on social media that read, “Much of the Boulder community is outraged and heartbroken by the murder of George Floyd, and the countless other African American citizens before him, at the hands of the police.

PRE-SORT STANDARD PAID RICHFIELD, UTAH PERMIT No. 122

by Tessa Barkan BOULDER - The June 2020 Boulder Town Council meeting was held via Zoom.

A toll-free number was also available for people to call in.

First on the agenda was a review of the preliminary 2020-2021 Budget. Council members were asked to check in with their committees and department responsibilities to assess budgetary needs. The budget may be down about 10% for next year. A public hearing, as well as voting, will occur at a newly scheduled meeting on June 18 at 7 p.m.

A discussion of the Fourth of July followed. The Boulder Community Alliance has chosen to change the celebration from how it has been conducted in past years.

Mayor Steve Cox suggested that the town could still hold the parade, while following COVID-19 safety guidelines.

Town Clerk Judi Davis suggested changing the parade’s route to avoid the highway, in order to reduce permitting complications. It was suggested that the route could begin at the Burr Trail corner and go the opposite direction but still end at the town park.

This longer route will also allow people more space to spread out. It was voiced that, though guidelines will be sent out with the announcement, responsibility will fall on the individuals present. A final decision will be made on this matter at the June 18 meeting.

Department reports followed. The Cemetery Board has put off their spring meeting. Cox mentioned that Escalante has a system for putting up flags for Memorial Day and Veteran's Day in their cemetary. He asked if Boulder would be interested in doing something similar.

The Cemetery Board will discuss this option and how to possibly move forward.

The Travel Council is planning to restart their advertising campaign for this area at the end of the month.

UDOT is still getting ready to work on the turning lane from Highway 12 to Burr Trail. They do not have an exact time frame. The survey has been completed and the space has been staked out.

At the last planning com-

mission meeting, Sugarloaf Valley Farms was approved for a Conditional Use Permit to add two tiny house structures. A map is being made of the residences in each of the three Boulder zones created by the Residential Short Term Rental Ordinance, in order to keep track of these rentals.

This map should be available at the next planning commission meeting. Two working groups are moving towards clarifying definitions in the Table of Uses. This month’s planning commission meeting will include a public hearing on the proposed Arts and Agricultural Center. This will be held on Thursday, June 11 at 7 p.m.

Donna Jean Wilson has resigned from her position as the regular landfill attendant.

Dean Wilson has taken the position. The town must find a backup to fill in when he is unavailable. Any interested parties should contact Steve Cox. The fire council has yet to get together this season but plan to meet. The new EMTs have still been unable to take their national exams. One of the EMTs has been fully reimbursed for the course, one did not ask for reimbursement, and the third has been at least partially reimbursed so far.

Three applicants have reached out about the open Postmaster position, and applications are still being taken.

Though a potentially confusing letter was posted asking if a local business would take on the post office, as far as the council knows, the job being offered is the same as in the past.

Two thousand disposable masks have been donated by the Tri-County Economic Taskforce to the town to distribute to local businesses.

Devaki Murch has also acquired donations of personal safety equipment for the town and has secured thousands of masks for Boulder and other nearby communities, as well as gloves and oximeters.

The new Boulder website is moving towards going live. Codification of the Ordinances should be updated on this site.

The Boulder Town Council meets on the first Thursday of each month at 7 p.m.

Letters to the Editor

..."with Liberty and Justice for All."

We have been mouthing these words since grade school, as we stand with hands over hearts. How often do we think about what we say we believe? How often do we imagine making an effort to make it so?

While life seemingly goes on quietly in Garfield County, we can imagine we’re distanced from the horrifically disturbing and painful demonstrations involving fellow citizens across the country. Trouble is, we’re not distanced.

Miles don’t separate us from our common culture, our common allegiance to the country we all want to believe in.

I believe we all are serious when we say that pledge

and its concluding words: “with liberty and justice for all.” I believe we mean it. So how do we reconcile this ingrained belief with distancing ourselves from fellow citizens’ pain? Pain they experience daily of demonstrably unequal and unfair treatment, all the way from casual slights to discrimination to outright murder?

Now is the time for each of us to ponder those words and what they truly mean for us and our way of life. If we conclude that there’s work to be done, things we can do, we’d better get at it.

Fossil Fuels: If we leave people

coal workers must be at the center of any transition to a clean-energy economy. As of three years ago—the latest figures available for Utah— the energy industry supported more than 76,000 jobs and contributed $9.4 billion to the state's GDP. The report says wealthy countries need to take the lead in managing the phaseout. Kartha says otherwise, poorer oil-dependent nations won't participate in what must ultimately be a global effort.

"If we leave people just to fend for themselves," says Kartha, "whether they're in Wyoming or whether they're in the Congo, then we won't find our way toward the solutions that we need in order to continue thriving as a society of globally connected

people."

Kartha contends the recent drop in global demand for oil shows that being a net coal, oil and gas exporter made the U.S. economy more vulnerable during the coronavirus crisis.

"Seeing things in terms of oil and gas production—in and of its own being a good thing that allows the U.S. to project power—that might be a little misguided," says Kartha. "That's a double-edged sword."

The report says according to the world's leading scientists, just a decade remains to reduce greenhousegas emissions to safe levels, or the damage from climate change could become permanent.

My Mother’s Gardening Secret

My mother was widely considered to always have the best garden for miles around, for as long as I can remember. When asked what her secret was, she would always tell people, “The secret is in the soil.”

That’s all.

Just, “The secret is in the soil.”

Some would then ask her if she made compost to boost her soil. “No, too much work, and I don’t need to.”

Most people have heard of compost, and many have tried it, and/or are currently doing it.

Composting has many advantages for both you and the world.

Compost can turn ANY soil into a much more fertile, appropriately draining (yes, it helps hold moisture in sandy soil and improves drainage of clay soil), pH balanced (yes, it raises the pH of acid soil and lowers alkalinity), plant supporting community.

Composting saves space in the landfills and reduces carbon emissions.

Composting saves money on fertilizer and other expensive garden additives.

BUT, as my mother said, composting requires some time and attention, as well as the right conditions (heat, moisture, oxygen, appropriate balance of types of materials, and just plain TIME) to work well.

So, what was my mother’s secret, and what does it have to do with compost?

Mom let the garden make it’s own compost.

Every morning she went out to the garden with a can full of kitchen scraps from the previous day and coffee grounds from the morning’s breakfast.

She then went to her special marker, hoe and scraps in hand, and hollowed out a small trench.

The scraps went into the trench, and the dirt went right back over the scraps.

Then the marker was moved to where the trench ended, telling her where to start the next days “deposit” in the super garden.

Over the course of the summer, those scraps were broken down by worms, bugs, soil microbes, fungi, and the occasional chicken, into wonderful rich black soil that would grow pretty much anything without having to add any fertilizer of any kind.

Burying the kitchen waste kept it out of sight, kept the flies out of it, and kept it from smelling bad.

The regular watering of the garden kept it sufficiently moist to help it break down quickly and well.

Most garden waste met the same fate, unless it was really large.

The big stuff went to the chickens to work over first.

Corn and sun flower stalks got their own special treatment, but that’s another subject for another day.

If this kind of non-composting composting appeals to you, here is a list of 14 things you can bury in your garden: 1. Kitchen waste, but go easy on the citrus unless you have very alkaline soil. This includes vegetable scraps,

grains, dairy, eggs, fruits, and even small amounts of meat— as long as you don’t need to worry about a dog digging it up. If your garden could use a quick pick-me-up, put those scraps in sturdy blender with enough water to make a thin liquid. Blend, and pour on the garden as a side dressing around plants or along the sides of the rows, then water it in.

2. Garden waste such as torn leaves and spent plants (but not diseased ones—they should be burned or sent to the dump). Did you know that burying a crop of marigolds in your garden can help eliminate nematodes? And garden waste adds back a lot of organic matter to build good soil.

3. Yard waste that has been cut or broken up into smallish bits. This includes grass (best used as a mulch over the top of your garden paths), leaves in the fall (but run them through the lawn mower first), small sticks, trimmings from rose bushes and similar. Even large tree branches and logs can be used, but need to either be chopped into small bits or used as part of a huglekulture bed (more

on that later—am I bad for saying that?)

4. Eggs. These get special mention because we all know they are golden nuggets of nutrition for people, but did you know that the same applies for your garden? Dig a hole or trench 4-6 inches deep, put raw or boiled eggs in it, then smash the eggs and break them up a bit. They are high in calcium (think tomatoes), phosphorus, and nitrogen.

Traditionally, they have been cheaper, pound for pound, than fertilizer. With the way grocery prices are going right now, that might not be true any longer, but it will always be a good use for any old eggs you might have.

5. Coffee grounds and tea bags/leaves, after use, also get special mention because their ability to feed worms. Used tea leaves have almost twice as much nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium as coffee grounds, in addition to calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc—all of which are good for your garden. The liquid coffee and tea should be strongly diluted because they tend to be too acidic for use on a garden as they come.

6. Fish tank water and cleanings are wonderful for gardens if you keep fish.

7. Shellfish waste. Those shrimp and crab and clam shells make excellent garden boosters. They should be broken up into small pieces first, but they are excellent mineral boosters.

8. Animal waste, i.e. manure, is a time-honored garden booster, but, with the exception of small amounts of rabbit manure, it should be composted for several months before applying to the garden, or, apply it fresh, then wait several months to plant. For example, spread fresh manure in the fall, then plant in the spring. Rabbit manure is much lower in nitrogen than any other animal waste I am aware of and can be applied directly in small amounts.

Even with bunny bubbles (rabbit manure) though, a little is good, but a lot can still burn your plants. Chicken manure is probably the hottest manure going and really needs at least six months to age before using it on or around plants.

How Can Taxes be Saved Upon Death?

t H e

by Jeffery J. mckenna "Cost basis" is the term used to describe the original cost of an asset. It is used to determine the taxable gain on the sale of that asset. For instance, if you purchased a parcel of vacant real estate in 1980 for $50,000, your cost basis in the property is $50,000. If you sell the unimproved parcel of land for $150,000 (its fair market value), your taxable gain would be $100,000; the sale price less the cost basis ($150,000 - $50,000 = $100,000). You would therefore be subject to capital gain tax on $100,000.

In situations where property is used for business purposes, the cost basis must be reduced by the depreciation taken against the property during the period of business use. When you give an asset away during life, the recipient of the gift assumes your original cost basis. For example, if a father gave his son the real estate we discussed above, the son's cost basis would also be $50,000.

If the son likewise sold the property for $150,000, he, too, would have a taxable gain of $100,000.

However, when you leave an asset to someone upon your death, the recipient receives what is referred to as a step-up in basis. The stepup in basis is the fair market value of the asset on the date

of the decedent's death (or on the date six months after death if the alternative valuation date is used). Using the previous example, if the father died and left the property to his son upon his death, the son would receive a step-up in basis in the property, which would be the $150,000 fair market value. If the son subsequently sold the property he inherited from his father for its fair market value of $150,000, the son would have no taxable gain.

Although, it makes sense at times to give away assets during life, one must consider the possible income tax ramifications to the recipient of the gift on the subsequent sale of that asset. In many cases, it is preferable to leave an asset upon your death rather than to give it away during life to take advantage of the step-up in basis rule.

Many people give away assets to children during their life to avoid the delays and expenses of probate upon their death. In doing so, they lose advantage of the step-up in basis rule. A better alternative may be to create and fully fund a living trust during the parents' lifetime and leave the assets to children upon their death. The assets in the living trust would pass to the children free of probate, and they will receive a full step-up in basis.

Kraft Dinner

Before going to work, my wife instructed me to give our kids Kraft Dinner for supper.

When suppertime came, I didn't feel like cooking and took the kids out to a local fast-food restaurant.

While we were eating, I told them to tell their mother that they had had Kraft Dinner for supper, should she ask, or else Daddy would get into trouble.

Later, at bedtime, my wife called to say goodnight to the kids and she asked our five-year-old daughter, Danielle, what they had eaten for supper, "Kraft Dinner," she replied, adding, "from the Dairy Queen."

Breakfast

Not long after their wedding, the newlyweds were standing in the kitchen. "If you'll make the toast and pour the juice, sweetheart," said the bride, "breakfast will be ready."

"Great! What are we having for breakfast?" he asked.

"Toast and juice." she replied.

to advertise a position on the Special Service District #1.

They also signed a contract with the state for funding of $31,000 for staff and courtroom expenses of the district court.

Finally, there was a lengthy discussion of the proposal to put the sheriff in charge of the Wayne County EMS and Emergency Services Departments. The goal is to provide a clear communication chain between the Wayne County Emergency Services, the Wayne County Sheriff's Office and the Wayne County Commission, which has been an issue for years. All concerned expressed a desire for clear communications between the departments concerning

everything from purchasing equipment and supplies to following proper procedures “in the field.” Ultimately, the proposal to place the Wayne County Emergency Services and the Wayne County Emergency Medical Services under the Wayne County Sheriff's direction was approved. The sheriff is then answerable to the commissioners. The reverse of this chain will then also be true. As Attorney Mike Olsen stated, the goal is for the entire system to do “what is good for the people.”

Commissioners then took a short break, and returned to approve vouchers. And that's the way it is in Wayne County.

The Wayne County Commission meets the first and third Monday of every month at the Wayne County Courthouse in Loa.

June 11, 2020

by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com June is named for the Roman Goddess Juno, patroness of marriage and the well-being of women. Also, it is from the Latin word juvenis, meaning “young people.”

In two weeks, June 20 will be the first day of summer. You would never know it by today's (Sunday) weather.

I wonder if the wind is ever going to stop. This last two weeks, the weather has been the greatest (even with the wind). I haven’t had to turn on my heater in that time. Looking at the country's weather, and how bad it is on the Gulf Coast with 10 to 20 inches of rain in the near future, one should never complain about our weather. However, I do wish that some of that rain would come our way. We have been getting a few drops here and there, but I don’t think they count.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not bothered Pat and I at all. Unlike some states, we don’t have to stay inside, and it has not stopped us from living a normal life. Except that we miss church and the NBA playoffs. Well, I got some great news about both of them.

The Panguitch Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints started services in the 2nd Ward today. The 1st and 3rd Wards will be starting services this Sunday the 14th.

I understand that they will be abbreviated meetings, lasting 45 minutes. The 1st and 3rd Wards will be divided in half.

After each meeting, the chapel will be sanitized for the next meeting. There will not be Sunday School, Relief Society, or Priesthood meetings at this time. It will be nice to see old friends again and hear the chosen words.

In April, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints held its first ever all virtual General Conference.

Last Thursday, the faith’s top leaders announced that its October conference, also, will be virtual only, with no in-person attendees. Due to the “health and safety of others,” the leaders said that the fall gathering will follow the same pattern as the conference held in April of this year. All sessions will be broadcast; available via television, radio or the internet.

I really enjoyed last April’s conference. It was great to see Mr. Mack leading the choir.

The NBA season is going to be starting up with 22 teams, concluding the regular season at the Walt Disney World complex in Orlando, Florida. The teams invited to return are the 16 that were in playoff position when the season stopped on March 12.

From the East, they are the Milwaukee Bucks, Toronto Raptors, Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, Indiana Pacers, Philadelphia 76ers, Brooklyn Nets, and Orlando Magic.

From the West, the teams are the LA Lakers, LA Clippers, Denver Nuggets, Utah Jazz, Oklahoma Thunder, Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, and the Memphis Grizzlies.

Also invited are six clubs that were within six games of the playoffs. These are the Washington Wizards, Portland Trail Blazers, New Orleans Pelicans, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs and the Phoenix Suns. Each team will play eight regular season games to establish playoff seeding, and the top seven seeds will be in the playoffs. If the eighth place team is four games

ahead of the ninth place team, they will be in the playoffs.

If not, there will be playoff games between the eighth and ninth place teams. The teams will report to training camps on June 30 and will report to Orlando on July 7th. The playoffs will tentatively resume on July 31. Cool or what? Next year’s season won’t start until December.

COVID-19 cases have risen in Utah to the point that we are one of the fifteen states that is showing over a 100% increase in cases of the virus.

Once running along at 100 cases a day, Utah has peaked at over 500 cases in the last few days, including 11 cases a day in Washington County.

Pat and I are still wearing our masks in to places, and, as time goes by, we are seeing less and less masks. Most of the stores and restaurants are very careful with their sanitation efforts, in order to keep their places free of the germ.

We feel really safe going out there. This is a terrible disease, and people seem to have reached a point where they don’t care anymore. If the cases keep raising in Utah, we may have to go back to a more restricted life. Utah has over 12,000 cases of the virus but have had only 120 deaths.

Every day, there are 20,000 new cases of the virus, and the death total is up to 115,000, with two million cases in the U.S. I understand that the Lion's Club will not be serving breakfast at this summer’s events. They don’t want to endanger the people with COVID-19. If this changes, I will let you know.

Unless you are living in a hole, you probably know what the news is about George Floyd. Millions of people all over the world are marching in peaceful protest of his murder by four police officers.

Over 140 cities in our country and in all 50 states and coun-

tries all over the world are marching for equal rights for all. It is sad to watch what our president is doing and saying and that it is just escalating the marches. This is the 13th day of the marches, and the more that is said, the bigger the crowds are getting. It wasn’t until these marches started for justice for Mr. Floyd and not until four days after the murder that anyone was charged. A week went by before the other three were charged with aiding and abetting in a crime.

George Floyd’s brother put it best: “Get out and vote.” A young 11 year old said to not let your anger influence your action. Other than the first two days, these marches have been peaceful.

Los Angeles had a different protest march. So that older people could take part, they had a car rally, with hundreds and hundreds of cars going from the police department to downtown.

At our march in SLC some idiot had a bow and arrow there and was using it to defend the police. The Taylorville man, who had spent two decades behind bars in California, was booked and faces three felony counts for aiming his weapon at the protesters. His bail has been set at $100,000. He was also brandishing a knife at demonstrators. He, then, went back to his car and got the bow and was aiming at people around him. He has been arrested seven different times and has spent the last twentytwo years bouncing in and out of California prisons.

The NFL Commissioner went on TV and apologized to all of those football players that took a knee at games during the playing of the National Anthem. He said the he and the owners of the teams FYI Panguitch Cont'd on page 10

Mother's Secret: My mother was widely considered to always have the best garden for miles around, for as long as I can remember. When asked what her secret was, she would always tell people, 'The secret is in the soil.'—Suzanne Palmer

roman Hraska

Composting in the garden can save space and money and can help make soil more fertile, better draining, and can balance out pH levels.

Mother's Secret Cont'd from page 4

9. Dead animals can also be buried in your garden.

When I have a chicken, rabbit, cat, or dog die, if it’s spring, they get “planted” in the garden where the plant roots can absorb the nutrients from the body to give you a bumper crop of veggies. In the summer, I try to find a spot where I want a new tree or bush, then bury the body there.

10. Old cotton (no synthetics) clothing, rags, and towels can be buried in the garden to compost. Just be sure to remove any buttons, snaps, zippers, elastic and such since these won’t break down as well. I would rec-

ommend washing them first, and don’t put oily rags into the garden. Nope. Not a good plan! Seriously, thin cotton will generally break down in a garden within a year. Thicker stuff will need to be shredded or given more time.

11. Rancid powdered milk and nuts can go into the garden as well, but spread thinly and well watered in.

Another use for rancid powdered milk is to make cheese, but, again, that’s another topic, and completely off target for an article on gardening.

12. Ashes from a fireplace can be added to acidic soil to raise the alkalinity, but, if you have alkaline soil, adding ash is not recommended, unless maybe it’s balanced out

with a lot of citrus waste.

13. If you have animals giving birth, the placenta or afterbirth can be a fabulous addition to the garden so long as it’s buried deep enough to not attract any neighboring dogs.

14. Worms are a garden’s best friend, next to appropriate amounts of water and sunlight. Yes, I do raise my own worms and add them to my garden. It’s called vermiculture, if you’re interested, and that’s another topic for another day.

Not only did I see this “secret” work in my mother’s garden so many years ago, but I’ve used it myself for the 40+ years I’ve been gardening on my own. It works, and it’s easy.

One possible bonus— I’ve heard that both human and pet hair/fur can be added to a garden, but I have not tried either one in my garden.

I do know that hair is generally very slow to break down so if you want to try this, I would suggest starting small and in an area you can easily identify and track the results.

Happy gardening, and here’s to your successful “secret” garden boosting!

Bryce Canyon National Park Begins Modified Shuttle Operations As part of phased reopening, NPS steadily continues to increase recreational access and services

BRYCE - Following guidance from the White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state and local public health authorities, Bryce Canyon National Park has begun modified shuttle services.

On June 1, the park began limited shuttle use with robust mitigations for staff and visitor safety. Currently four shuttles are running within the park, providing service at 15-minute intervals to all regular stops in the Bryce Amphitheater and Bryce Canyon City from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.

The park shuttle is free to ride with park admission, which can be purchased at the shuttle station and provides entry for you and your vehicle’s passengers. Proof of admission is only required to be shown at stops located outside the park in Bryce Canyon City. Visitors intending to ride the shuttle are encouraged to use the free, allday parking lot available at the Shuttle Station in Bryce Canyon City to help reduce vehicle congestion within the park. While service to the Bryce Amphitheater has now resumed, Rainbow Point bus tours to southern viewpoints will not be offered at this time.

Safety modifications to normal shuttle operations include: • Shuttle capacity is limited to 20 passengers at a time • Visitor groups are asked to sit together to encourage distancing between groups • Free masks and hand sanitizer are available for passengers • Passenger entry and exit via rear doors only to accommodate plexiglass barriers in place to protect shuttle drivers • Bus interior surfaces will be disinfected after each hour-long circuit is completed • RVs and other vehicles over 20 feet / 6 meters in length are strongly encouraged to park at the shuttle

station to use either the shuttle or the Shared-Use hiking and biking path as parking for larger vehicles within the park is limited.

Visitors with larger vehicles should expect the possibility of short-term restrictions at popular Bryce Amphitheater parking lots during peak times. Parking these vehicles in the Visitor Center Additional Parking lot and using the SharedUse-Path is also a great option.

Key Areas and Services that visitors currently have access to: • The main road and all viewpoints to Rainbow Point • Visitor Center and NHA bookstore: outdoor and indoor operations from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The theater and museum remain closed, and in accordance with regional public health guidance on group gatherings, indoor visitor occupancy will be limited for retail or restroom access only • The General Store at Sunrise Point camp store and restrooms are open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., however, showers and laundry services will remain closed • In the Bryce Amphitheater area, restrooms are also available at Sunset Point (24 hrs), Inspiration Point (24 hrs) • Along the southern Scenic Drive, restrooms are available at Farview and Rainbow Points (24 hrs) • All front-country trails within the park • Guided horseback rides • Shuttle service from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

While most of the park is now accessible for visitors to enjoy, a return to full operations will continue to be phased. When recreating, the public should follow local area health orders, practice Leave No Trace principles, avoid crowding and avoid high-risk outdoor activities.

Here are a few tips for the visiting public to ensure your best experience when visiting Bryce Canyon National Park:

• Visit the park during nonpeak hours, either early morning or late afternoon/ evening • The park’s Shared-UsePath provides a fun way to walk or ride a bicycle from less busy parking lots such as those in Bryce Canyon City and near the Visitor Center to popular park overlooks and the Rim Trail • Avoid the park’s most popular overlooks at busy times by enjoying views along the Rim Trail, which provides endless vistas between Bryce Amphitheater viewpoints • Be ready to don your face mask for places such as overlooks, trailheads and trail junctions, shuttle buses, restrooms, the Visitor Center and General Store, and wherever else social distancing may be difficult to maintain.

The CDC has offered guidance to help people recreating in parks and open spaces prevent the spread of infectious diseases. We will continue to monitor all park functions to ensure that visitors adhere to CDC guidance for mitigating risks associated with the transmission of COVID-19 and take any additional steps necessary to protect public health.

Park rangers are available in real time to answer phone calls and emails during regular business hours for information and trip planning.

Call (435) 834-5322 or email the park at brca_information@nps.gov for assistance.

Visitors can also contact the park through its social media pages and find details on current park operations by visiting the park’s public health page.

Everett Johnson

HATCH - Everett Leroy Johnson of Hatch, Utah, age 82, passed away peacefully at his home on May 28, 2020, with his wife Laetitia "Tish" Johnson, children, grandchildren, and friends by his side. He was born October 27, 1937, in Anaheim, CA to Charles and Alta Leonard Johnson.

A long-time resident of Hatch, Everett was loved for his good nature, great sense of humor and wonderful story-telling talents. He was a genuinely kind man, who would lend a helping hand to anyone. His granddaughters called him their "personal Santa Claus" for whenever they came to visit, no matter the time of year, he put his Santa hat on for photos with them. He was fun to be around and hugging him goodbye usually included, "Glad you got to see me!" A person simply could not be anything but happy around this man. Everett was never without his white cowboy hat and six-shooter on his hip. He was a picture of the Old West and used to say to his dad, "You had me in the wrong century," whereupon Charlie would answer, "But I wasn’t there yet!" Everett represented the best of the pioneer spirit and was truly larger than life itself.

While Everett was born and grew up in California, he had strong family roots in Utah. He spent every summer as a child hunting, fishing, and exploring the outdoors in Price with his mother’s family, who all hailed from Price. Every year, they traveled through Hatch to Price and Everett fell in love with Hatch and Southwest Utah. In the late 60s, his parents acquired property in Old Town Hatch.

Everett worked as a heavy equipment operator building freeways and housing developments. He also served three years in the army. Everett ultimately bought some land near his parents’ property in Hatch and retired there in 1982. His parents moved to their property in Hatch to join him a few years later.

It was while helping his parents sell their property in California that Everett met Tish in 1991. Tish was an escrow officer, and Everett’s realtor set them up on a blind date. They fell in love and Tish eventually moved to Hatch, where she and Everett spent time together hunting, fishing, walking, and exploring the surrounding countryside. One of Everett’s passions was riding his ATV with his dogs. He was a long-time member of Garfield County Search and Rescue and participated in many search and rescue operations.

Everett is survived by his wife Tish; children: Charles Johnson, Robert Sanford (Joanna), and Janet Eckert (Ron); grandchildren Kendall, Kelsie, Haley, and Rebecca; nephews Michael and Steven Johnson; cousins Arland and Marie Leonard of Price, UT. Everett is also survived by granddaughter Cassandra and husband Rick Unruh, who blessed Everett with 2 great-grandsons and another great-grandson due in the fall, to be named after Everett.

He was preceded in death by daughter Eve Haley, brother Raymond, and his parents.

Cremation services have taken place. Graveside services will be held Saturday, June 13, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. in the Hatch Cemetery. Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti. Online guestbook at www.maglebymortuary,.com

A march in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement's protests worldwide in Boulder drew nearly 100 participants. Here marchers chant "No justice, no peace" while sitting for a group photo.

ism, injustice and brutality is unacceptable to us.”

Participants met at the Boulder Town Park Pavilion, donning masks and practicing social distancing. Signs reading, “Black Lives Mat-

ter,” “Stand up for Racial Justice,” “We Must do Better,” and “Racism is a Pandemic, Too,” dotted the crowd.

The route started at the park pavilion, taking the group down Highway 12 to Burr Trail Road and back again.

The march down the 1. 2 mile roundtrip section of road was

relatively quiet and peaceful.

Some chanted and most held their signs up for passing motorists, oftentimes eliciting a honk of support. Police presence consisted of one officer, who relatively quickly took off on a different errand.

In a small community, with a mostly white demo-

recognize that they were wrong in the need for justice for all in this country.

Our granddaughter said that at one of her clinics where she works took a moment of silence for George Floyd that lasted for 8.55 minutes. She said that it felt like an eternity.

The cooks at the Meals on Wheels are now cranking out over 150 meals each day and want the people to know that your meals may be a little late because of the volume. It looks like we will be delivering meals at least until the end of July, or longer.

Gov. Gary Herbert and Lt. Gov. Cox are refusing money that Congress has set aside to help hungry children in Utah during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Pandemic Electronic Benefit Transfer money is to provide for families with children and is meant to replace school lunches while school is closed. Utah is the only state to reject this $50 million for Utah’s children,

who would typically receive school meals.

June 20 is the summer solstice and the longest daylight day of the year. Sunrise will be at 5.50 AM and sunset is at 9:15. I do love daylight savings time. Both my electric and heating bill are way down.

The bad side is that we lose two minutes of daylight each day until the winter solstice on December 23rd.

Take advantage of the extra daylight. Go for a walk or do some service work.

graphic, one could ask what kind of an impact a protest like this would be able to make on greater change and why bother to hold a demonstration in one of the most remote places in the continental U.S. “I think it probably seems sort of absurd at one level to be having a march in the middle of this incredibly white community in the middle of nowhere, but, on second thought, I think that’s exactly the reason we should have a march here,” says Alexandra Fuller, a Boulder resident participating in the march. “I know one of the things that impacts social change is not just the big turnouts in big urban areas but the number of smaller impacts all across rural areas, too. So, I think with this, our community pretty much hopes that our fellow citizens in the big cities will understand that they have the support of rural America, too.”

ties with USU Extension/4H. Torgerson was recently named a Utah 4-H Southern Region Ambassador. Since then, many 4-H Teen Leaders and youth have participated in the program.

Over the three years of the project, we’ve explored 18 cultural heritage themes. For each theme, we offered after school programs culminating in a community dinner from January through May. During the COVID-19 crisis, the project provided over 1000 take-home family challenge kits coordinated by USU Extension/4H and distributed

by Royals.

The SparkSquad 4-H At-Home Kits program has extended into the summer.

Youth across the county are currently participating in sewing, pottery, and gardening projects. For instance, Loa resident Ruger Grundy recently transplanted his sunflower and pumpkin seedlings in his outdoor garden as part of the FFA, 4-H, SparkSquad program.

While the SparkSquad projects are winding down, two other aspects of the grant project are just gearing up.

The NEH grant will provide

hardware, software, and resources to support local story preservation and programming at a distance.

As part of the project, elderly community members from founding families throughout Wayne County will be interviewed to chronicle local history. In addition, we'll hold live streaming events to involve participants both inside and outside the county in these conversations. If you know of someone who you’d like to involve in this oral history project, contact Don Gomes or Annette Lamb.

The final element of the project extends Entrada Institute summer and fall programming online. With ongoing concerns about social distancing, this season’s Entrada Institute programming will include a blend of limited face-to-face and online opportunities for participation.

The NEH Sparking Humanities project is made possible through a generous grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Entrada Institute and Wayne County USU Extension. LIKE us at facebook. com/sparkinghumanities.
