POPULAR MUSIC SISTERS Leah and Chloe
Smith return to Belly Up on Friday, May 20 with their folk outfit Rising Appalachia. The sisters are based in Atlanta, but have picked up and incorporated an eclectic mix of styles and sounds in to Rising Appalachia over their years on the road — Bayou washboard jazz meets Appalachian bluegrass fiddles and banjos, coexisting beside beat-boxing and spoken word poetry and mesmerizing dual vocals. Formed in 2005, the band honed its chops in postKatrina New Orleans playing DIY venues and busking in the French Quarter. Rising Appalachia’s unique approach extends to the way it tours. They’ve pioneered what they call the “slow music” movement, with an eye on sustainability, community activism and giving back wherever they go. On one recent tour, the band traveled exclusively by train. In Colorado, where Rising Appalachia will play Red Rocks after Belly Up, they’ve partnered with the Permaculture Action Network for a day of volunteering with fans on the Front Range and will be hooking up with nonprofits here in Aspen. Their acclaimed live show has brought Rising Appalachia to the stage at Burning Man and earned them a growing international fan base. The band is currently touring in support of last year’s “Wider Circles” with what promises to be a musical high point of the spring offseason. Arouna Diarra opens. The show is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. Tickts are $15 in advance; $18 on Friday. Read more about Rising Appalachia in the Friday, May 13 Weekend section of The Aspen Times.
Rising Appalachia will perform at Belly Up on Friday, May 20.

IN WHAT’S BECOME a beloved spring offseason tradition, local cops turn auctioneers on Friday, May 20 for the Aspen Police Department Bike Auction. Held at Courthouse Plaza, the auction offers up unclaimed bikes that were left on racks or ditched around town. Usually you can pick up a townie for a few dollars or, every once in awhile, a top-flight mountain or road bike for a few hundred. This year, the cops are also offering abandoned skateboards and skis. A preview starts at 11 a.m., followed by the auction at noon. Cash, credit cards and checks will be accepted.
ART MULTIMEDIA ARTIST SAM DURANT is making his way to the Aspen Art Museum for a talk on Thursday, May 19. An art teacher at the California Institute of the Arts, he’s shown his work internationally. The public talk corresponds with Durant’s participation in the museum’s Crit Sessions, organizing critiques of work by local artists.

THE WEEKLY CONVERSATION
by JOHN COLSON
Are Trumpeteers embarrassed by their devotion? IT IS FAIRLY COMMON knowledge that Donald Trump, the “apparent” Republican nominee for president, is a racist, a misogynist, an egomaniac and an ignoramus, to name a few of his less socially salubrious characteristics. Many of his supporters will gleefully acknowledge these traits in their favorite politician, if they are being truthful with themselves and anyone who asks them a question about it. After all, these are the very traits that many of Trump’s supporters would see in themselves if they looked in a mirror that went more than skin-deep. Of course, they might not use the same terms as those I catalogued above, preferring to trot out less loaded, more politically nuanced terminology, such as “white and proud,” or “patriot resisting foreign influences,” or “recognizing male superiority,” or some such crap. The one that would most incense Trumpeteers, I guess, is “ignoramus.” No one likes to be called stupid, although some of The Donald’s biggest boosters appear to invest an unbelievable amount of pride in the fact that they really don’t know much about anything beyond a narrow, highly prejudiced block of precepts handed down by their equally ignorant progenitors. But a spate of recent studies and polls indicates that some Trump supporters, perhaps those with an education somewhat higher than grade school, seem to feel some embarrassment over their choice of presidential contenders. For example, a Pew Research Center report, on an analysis of the different in Trump’s support as registered by online polls versus telephone polls, indicates that his presidential chances improve if people are answering questions in the privacy of their own online world rather than having to answer questions from an actual person on the other end of the telephone line. An aggregation of recent telephone polls conducted by the RealClearPolitics organization indicates that Hillary Clinton, the presumptive nominee of the Democrats, has about a nine-point lead over Trump among likely voters. But online polls conducted by YouGov and Morning Consult, two political polling entities, shaved that lead down to four points, and a recent online poll by Reuters and the Ipsos research firm show the two candidates in a statistical dead heat — Hillary at 41, The Donald at 40 — according to an article in the May 15 New York Times. The researchers chalk this up to what they call “social desirability bias,” or the tendency of respondents to want to “avoid embarrassment and project a favorable image to others” in answering questions, which naturally is less acute when they are tapping
away at their keyboard than when they are actually talking with someone, whether in-person or over the phone. But I think it’s more than that. I think the use of the Internet itself as a tool of political communication tends to seal us off and make us feel more powerful, less vulnerable to attack, and therefore more willing to say what we really feel no matter how imbecilic it is. That’s right, it seems to me that the Internet offers a self-selective means of expression to people who otherwise might feel ill-equipped to offer suggestions on a wide range of complex topics, from the threat that China poses to our national economic health or the question of whether it is beneficial or harmful to offer a path to citizenship for the noncriminal segment of the 11 million immigrants living illegally in the U.S. Getting back to the Trumpeteers, some phone-based surveys last December indicated that a majority of Americans (between 57 and 60 percent) would not go along with Trump’s initial declaration that he would keep any and all Muslims from entering this country “until our country’s representatives can figure out what’s going on.” This declaration came out on Dec. 7, 2015, a few days after two “terrorists” killed 14 people in San Bernadino, Calif., and given Trump’s derisive attitudes toward the government’s ability to figure out anything at all, it’s a wonder that he included that proviso at the end of his diatribe. At the same time, online surveys showed a plurality (45 percent) agreed with Trump on the issue, versus 41 percent who did not. By the end of March 2016, another online poll showed that 51 percent of respondents agreed with Trump, versus 40 percent who disagreed. Confused yet? What the researchers gleaned from all this, according to the NYT, is that it represents a “foundation for the strong correlation between support for Mr. Trump and white ethnocentrism and white racial resentment (against people of color),” as well as some embarrassment over the matter. This seems to fit with my own conclusions about Trump and his followers, but Trumpeteers might argue that this is just more proof that the NYT hates Trump and, by extension, his supporters, because the paper always writes bad stuff about him and them. And they love it that Trump is a man who, when confronted by something he doesn’t understand, adopts a pugilistic stance and starts swinging until he connects with some part of that offending, difficult “something,” preferably with a knockout blow — just like they, his supporters, would do. It’s just that some of them might not admit it in a phone survey.

LEGENDS & LEGACIES

Aspen High School seniors perform a Maypole dance on the school lawn in 1904.
MAYPOLES A Maypole and associated traditions began in the Old
World. No longer popular, they were an annual event in Aspen well into the 1940s. As in European countries, Aspen celebrated May Day, but that celebration eventually turned into Memorial Day observations.
During the 1890s, Aspen celebrated May Day with performances that included a maypole dance. The choreography almost always featured 16 young girls. The dances, held at the Wheeler and Tivioli opera houses or Armory Hall, were often fundraisers. Getting to be one of the 16 dancers was clearly an honor. The dancers spent many hours practicing. One year Aspen Dry Goods made a window display with a maypole and 16 dolls. The exhibit attracted crowds, especially young girls who imagined themselves as participants in the life-sized event. By the 1900s, the May Day celebration had morphed into a combination of a patriotic celebration and May Day Ball. This transformation took place largely because the ladies of the Grand Army Of The Republic, the G.A.R., had become the annual sponsor. In those years one performance took place at the Washington School and the other at Armory Hall. Grade

popular with locals. Dancers strayed from the 16-girl tradition in the late 1920s with 24 in 1928 and only 12 in 1929. When I searched The Aspen Times for information, I was surprised to find that Doris Willoughby, my aunt,
teamed up with Pearl Bishop to teach the dance in 1934. Third and fourth grade Camp Fire Girls comprised one 16-girl group and 16 high school girls cavorted in another group. May Day balls apparently were deemed inappropriate when World War II began and the gatherings were not revived after the conflict. The first recorded maypole dance in America took place in 1628. Where communities still celebrate May Day, the dance remains an annual event, mostly in schools. In Aspen, outdoor festivities depend on fair spring weather. Even in the face of that uncertainty, much fun might be had in reviving the tradition, bedecked with the creative touches of local artistry. Tim Willoughby’s family story parallels Aspen’s. He began sharing folklore while teaching for Aspen Country Day School and Colorado Mountain College. Now a tourist in his native town, he views it with historical perspective.

1930 ASPEN
ON MAY 30, 1930, The Aspen Times reported that crews were working from both sides in an effort to clear the last of the snow off Independence Pass. According to the article, “Al Frost and a crew of six road-builders for the state highway and county road overseer Bill Hendricks and crew are plowing right through the snow and other obstructions on the Independence Pass highway and expect to reach the top by Sunday at the least. From the other side comes the report that a crew of men are coming up the grade and will reach the top Sunday. With the meeting of the east and west road builders the Scenic Highway Over the Top of the World will be open for motor traffic on the first day of June or — Next Sunday! This will establish a record for opening Independence Pass.” The photograph above shows men with shovels clearing snow from the road on Independence Pass, circa 1930. It is captioned “Opening Independence.” This photo and more can be found in the Aspen Historical Society archives at aspenhistory.org.

GEAR of the WEEK
by STEPHEN REGENOLD
WEAR IT: SUPERFEET SANDALS BIG PROMISES come with a plush new sandal offering from insole-maker Superfeet. At $60, the flip-flops are sold as a superior open-toe option, absorbing shock, supporting the arch, potentially relieving plantar fasciitis, and even “great for body alignment,” as the brand puts it. Superfeet is a leader in the insole category, with decades of experience making products that interface with the bottom of bare feet. Sandals seem like a natural brand extension, and this spring the company launches a line for women and men. I tested Superfeet’s Outside Men’s Bison model, which come with a deep heel cup, synthetic leather straps, as well as the aforementioned bio-mechanical claims. I’m not sure about “body alignment,” but if that term is a stand-in for foot support that translates to comfortable ankles, knees, and above, Superfeet gets a pass. These sandals exude a firm, confident fit the moment you step in. The footbed is a firm foam textured with tiny dimples and scored with concentric lines. A half-inch depression cradles the heel, and the sandals contour subtly with your arch before flattening at the toes. A thick midsole cushions as you walk. The straps are lined with neoprene for comfort against the skin and a secure fit — the sandals stayed on my feet while walking on a steep trail. The outsole is touted as “slip-resistant,” though there is minimal tread underfoot. I had no issues with grip on dirt, stone stairs, or around water. The forefoot is flexible and molds to the terrain as you walk. I have hiked for a couple of miles at a stretch, including on dirt trails, pavement, and sand. Don’t expect anything beyond goodfitting flip-flops, however. These will not stay on in a river. The design is made for casual walks and everyday wear. In the end, the Superfeet sandals delivered on most of their touted claims, though at a high price. You can purchase multiple pairs of less expensive flip-flops for $60, though you’d be forgoing support and some style. But as go-to summertime kicks, the Superfeet sandals are a solid choice. They are versatile, easy to wear, and goodlooking enough to pass in any social scenario where bare toes are allowed.

WINEINK
ALL HAIL ITALI
DRINKING FROM THE BOOT IS ABOUT PURE PLEASURE WHEN PEOPLE FIND OUT I’m a wine writer, frequently the next question is, “If you could take one wine to a desert island, what would it be?” I get it, but as a wine writer you taste so many wines, and love so many wines, that it is really an impossible question to answer. So what I go with is, “I’d take all the wines from Italy.” I legitimize my broad answer by KELLY J. noting that it is not just HAYES the wines that account for my Italian fetish, it is the soulful nature of those who make them and the places from which they come. As of the 2015 harvest, Italy is the most prolific producer of wine grapes on earth, a position that ping-pongs back and forth between Italy and France depending on the vintage. Italians have been making wines for 2,800 years, well before the Roman Empire, giving it one of the longest legacies of wine production. Italian wines have quality, history and, of course, extreme quality on their side. In Italy, as winemaker and author Richard Betts likes to say, “Wine is a grocery, not a luxury,” meaning it is, like the air we breathe, simply a part of life. “In Italy, there is always a bottle on the table,” said a friend of mine emphatically, as though that were a requirement for any meal. “But the Italians sip their wines, like it’s a garnishment, just something that goes with the dish. You might see eight people at a table and then just one bottle. A little wine in each glass. It’s not like anyone is trying to get drunk. It is just a part of the dining experience.” It gets me to thinking about how in Italy, the “Old World,” wine and food go together naturally, organically, without too much thought. Here in the “New World” we put so much work and emphasis on having just the right wine, just the right vintage, just the right pairing that perhaps, sometimes, we miss the point. We tend to overthink it, to overwork it. Wine enhances a meal. But if it becomes a focal point, then maybe we have our priorities out of sequence.

THE LAY OF THE LAND In addition to the Italians themselves, things that make Italy such a great wine region include the topography and geography of the country. Long latitudinally, it ranges from the 36th parallel in Sicily to the 46th parallel in AltoAdige; oceans border its shores, the Mediterranean Sea to the west and the Adriatic Sea to the east. In the north the border is the slope of the mighty Alps. Soils are diverse up and down the Boot and the rolling hills, mountains and plains provide a constantly varying topography. God himself could not have created a more perfect place for growing grapes. There are 20 different wine regions in Italy that generally correspond to the administrative regions of the nation (think states), but these are further broken down into 74 DOCGs, or Designation of Origin Controlled and Guaranteed wines. These are similar to our version of the appellation designation, or AVAs. Perhaps the most significant of these for Americans would be the dominant red wine DOCGs of Piedmont, famed for their production of Barolo, “The Wine of Kings,” and Tuscany, perhaps best known as the home of Chianti and the epic Brunello di Montalcino wines. But white wine lovers may lean toward the fragrant, beautiful wines from the Alto-Adige region, or the bracingly crisp, refreshing wines from Sicily.
THE GRAPES There are over 2,000 varieties of grapes grown in Italy. The variations can be subtle. You don’t need to know all of them but if you know, say, six — three red and three white — you can drink your way from top to bottom through the country. Let’s look at just two to get you started: The most widely planted grape in Italy is the Tuscan varietal Sangiovese. The name translates to “the blood of Jove” and it is the grape that makes Chianti and the aforementioned Brunello di Montalcino wines.

wines of power and elegance. In Friuli-Venezia Giulia in the northeastern part of Italy is the much less-planted Ribolla Gialla. Fragrant on the nose with the aromas of peaches and fresh apples and citrus, the wines from this grape have become a darling of the sommelier set. These grapes are also favored by winemakers in the production of “Orange wines” that are made by leaving the juice in contact with the skins and the seeds for a few days to create an orange hue.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE AVIGNONESI ROSSO DI MONTEPULCIANO DOC 2014 Looking at this wine and tasting present two different experiences. In the glass the wine is light in color, clear enough to read the type on this page through its red hue. But in the mouth it was much bolder and fuller in body than I expected. It was the fruit that caught me. Fragrant with the basket-of-summer-berry flavors that are so appealing. It was the kind of wine that you hold in your mouth for just that extra instant before swallowing. 100 percent sangiovese, made from 100 percent estategrown vines in organic or biodynamic vineyards.

THE BARBERA FESTIVAL
ABOVE: Barbera is one of Italy’s great grapes that has become popular in other regions of the world, including California. LEFT: As of the 2015 harvest, Italy is the most prolific producer of wine grapes on earth, a position that pingpongs back and forth between Italy and France, depending upon the vintage.
Can’t make it to Italy this summer? Consider a visit to the Amador County Barbera Festival this June in Amador County in Plymouth, California. Now in its sixth year, the festival celebrates the noble grape from Italy and all of its West Coast iterations. This year the event moves to the Terra d’Oro/Montevina Winery for the June 11 event. Nearly 80 wineries from all over California, including the Sierra Foothills, Paso Robles, Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino, Lake County, the Santa Cruz Mountains, Ventura County, Lodi and the Bay Area will be pouring their Barbera-based wines.

FOOD MATTERS FOOD MATTERS
CHANGING PACE
TIME — TO ENJOY A MEAL OR DISTILL RUM — IS OF THE ESSENCE
IT HAPPENED during the first course, though I didn’t notice. I was too focused on picking apart a briny slab of ham-cured octopus terrine with crunchy tobaccosmoked breadcrumbs, pickled mustard seeds, and dill fronds, paired with grapefruitpomegranateblackberry rum shrub, sweet and light with a nostalgic whisper of fruit punch. AMANDA It probably happened RAE again during the second course: ruby-red, extra-rare duck breast fanned into a mound of sticky coconut rice and squired by the Bitter Pirate, silver rum blended with citrus bitters and Fernet Branca that was syrupy on its own but which mellowed when sipped between bites of fowl encrusted with a dark, bitter spice. By the time the Jamaican jerk goat meat pie with coconut Scotch bonnet pepper salsa arrived to soak up bracing, bourbon barrel-aged rum steeping mango spheres in a playful take on Japanese bubble tea — Boba Grog — I was hyperaware, despite buzzed. Still chewing on flaky pastry while forks and knives elsewhere around the table lay still on empty plates, it became clear: I was the slowest eater at our table of eight. My typical passionate appetite and speedy, methodical manner of deconstructing a dish had surrendered to a foreign sense of calm self-control. I wasn’t eating at a snail’s pace on purpose, but I knew I should pump the brakes on booze. I explained this almost apologetically to my dining companions, including Stoneyard Distillery Master Distiller Max Vogelman seated across from me, at The Pullman in Glenwood Springs; I didn’t want to seem unenthusiastic. Au contraire. The five-course, rumpairing dinner marked my return to real-world eating following an unexpectedly long juice cleanse, during which I starved myself of sugar, alcohol, caffeine, dairy, wheat, chocolate, and fun food of any kind

for a personal record-breaking 17 days. I was ecstatic to be here. Vogelman — a pilot and rum prodigy who turned his passion for making garage moonshine into a commercially viable operation (in Dotsero, the railroad junction 30 miles west of Edwards) — seemed to understand. As I sucked mango bits through a double-wide straw from a stemless wineglass, Vogelman reported that this Boba Grog, for one, is 15 percent alcohol. My thoughts turned back to the food — why was everyone rushing? I could understand how folks might be famished after a long, midweek workday, and the restaurant staff may have been trained to keep the meal moving, but I could not keep up. Maybe I was experiencing a mild form of culture shock after such a long sabbatical from social functions. I was chewing purposefully, inwardly ruminating about forgotten flavors and textures — rare meat the most. Weird! I might have felt self-conscious if not for the familiar warmth of full-body rum relaxation embracing me like a long-lost lover. A friend and Purium fanatic had explained that this would happen, but at the time I chalked it up to her characteristic exaggerating. Indeed, the green superfood cleanse really did seem to recalibrate my taste buds while my digestive system took a break to focus on flushing out toxins instead. One unlisted side effect of practicing extreme restraint for so long: My eating speed slowed dramatically. Interestingly, Vogelman may understand this, in a roundabout way. He began making rum in his garage some seven years ago because, in the grand scheme of distilling, it’s one of the quickest and easiest liquors to produce. Weekend experiments yielded near-instant gratification. “It seemed like a good, clean alcohol, especially for something that’s unaged,” says Vogelman, who couldn’t seem to find a rum on the market that he liked. “Just about anything you put in a barrel will

be pretty good if you let it sit long enough. Most whiskey, before it goes in a barrel, is undrinkable. To sit around for two years to wait for stuff to age didn’t seem like an option. So we started with rum — we knew we could start with something that’s enjoyable right now.” Using beet sugar trucked in from Fort Morgan in the northeast part of the state and Eagle River water, Stoneyard Colorado Rum requires a couple of weeks to ferment and just days to run through the still. Stoneyard Distillery as a homegrown business, however, is a product of time. Almost five years ago Vogelman founded the business with partner Jim Benson, leasing property in Dotsero from an uncle who ran a successful stone masonry business there for thirty-plus years. Together they built a 2,500-square foot production facility and assembled a doubleboiler kettle, “Twinkie,” by hand from parts salvaged from an old Hostess baking factory in Florida. Their first product, silver rum, hit shelves and bars in October 2014. Response has been overwhelming ever since, prompting Stoneyard to release two flavored products— Cinnamon Fire, a clean, sweet
rum alternative to Fireball, and cinnamon and cocoa-infused Horchata — recently. Stoneyard’s 18-month barrelaged rum will be available for retail sale from the Roaring Fork Valley to Steamboat Springs, Vail Valley, and Denver, any week now. Stoneyard possesses 41 bourbon barrels sourced from Laws Whiskey House in Denver and Breckenridge Distillery; each two-barrel batch yields about 600 bottles. Apparently the state’s rocketing craft-beer industry has created a shortage of whiskey casks for reuse. “It’s pretty much a waiting game,” Vogelman says, forced patience seeming to infuse his words. “Our first batch of barrelaged is a barrel-and-a-half. Once that’s gone, it will be another couple of months until the next one is ready. It is definitely a finite resource. There’s a lot of demand — I think it’s gonna go pretty quickly.” Judging from the many empty glasses at The Pullman last week, I say he’s right on point. Rum seekers will have to wait. amandaraewashere@gmail.com

WHY NOT WOLF? Advice to slow that dinner roll is universal: It takes the brain approximately 20 minutes to realize its full, according to the Mayo Clinic as well as every other medical and nutritional professional. Speedy eating has been shown to lead to higher caloric intake, reduced satisfaction, and weight gain, plus a higher risk of indigestion and acid reflux. Ick. “The act of eating fast is considered a stressor in the brain,” notes Marc David, founder of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating, which studies the connection between stress, digestion, metabolism, weight, and health. Leisurely eating encourages a calm response from the body’s parasympathetic nervous system rather than a fight-or-flight reaction from the sympathetic nervous system. Say you’re told to eat your favorite meal in less than five minutes. “In that five minutes, your body will go into some degree of stress-induced digestive shutdown,” David says. “You will have less blood flow to your gut, less enzymatic output in your gut, and decreased nutritional assimilation, which means increased nutrient excretion, simply because your body has shifted to sympathetic nervous system dominance.” Eat slowly, and allow 20 minutes for the brain to scan the nutritional profile of what was ingested, David says. “It starts as an observation: How does this make me feel? It’s a practice, like Zen meditating. How’s my energy? How’s my thinking? You don’t need willpower. It’s a natural mechanism that takes over.” Master Distiller Max Vogelman introduces Stoneyard Distillery during a rum dinner held at The Pullman on May 11. The five-course menu included spiced duck breast with coconut rice, paired with a silver rum cocktail, and a burnt-miso butterscotch financier with roasted banana gelato and buttered rum foam.

GUNNER’S LIBATIONS
by JILL BEATHARD
MICHELADA POP A popsicle in your drink seems like a silly embellishment — especially when you’re in as much need for a hangover remedy as I was Sunday morning. But the popsicle in this michelada at Lola in Denver is actually a creative solution to a problem — how to keep a beer cold when you’re pouring michelada mix in it. Lola gives you a glass with the mix and a popsicle already in it, and you pour the beer when you’re ready to start drinking — as your glass warms up, the popsicle keeps everything cool. Then when it starts melting, the sangrita and lime juice start mixing with your drink, so it just tastes better and better. This is a fun, imaginative twist on a favorite breakfast beverage that I won’t forget anytime soon.

VOYAGES
ESCAPE ARTIST | SINGAPORE
by AMIR BIBAWY for THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SINGAPORE: COLONIAL HERITAGE, COOL MODERN ARCHITECTURE, FOOD AT 51, Singapore is shrugging off all symptoms of a midlife crisis and embracing travelers with more and better things to see, taste and experience than ever before. The tiny city-state with a living standard the envy of many nations recently celebrated 50 years of independence since being thrown out of the Malaysian federation. Back then there was no telling what the future held; the nation’s founder Lee Kuan Yew reportedly cried as he announced the split. But Singapore has emerged as one of Asia’s most prosperous, multicultural and stable countries. It’s also famously clean, with strict laws against littering. Travelers have long used Singapore as a stopover en route to more exotic Asian destinations. But there’s enough here for a longer stay. Attractions can be split into neat categories: colonial heritage, contemporary attractions, ethnic neighborhoods, food and shopping. Coupled with stunningly efficient transportation, it’s easy to plan an itinerary lasting several days. I started my visit with a walk exploring Singapore’s British colonial past along the city’s quays. Historic buildings here include the Gothic St. Andrew’s Cathedral, Victoria Theatre and the Empress
Place Building, which houses the intriguing Asian Civilisations Museum. The famous Raffles Hotel is a colonial gem that has hosted the likes of Rudyard Kipling and Michael Jackson, while the Fullerton Hotel was the main post office until 1996. Off the Fullerton, I took time to admire the intricate Cavenagh and Anderson bridges, landing conveniently on Boat Quay, a buzzy waterfront of bars and restaurants. As I walked, I snacked on a mango wafer-ice cream sandwich, topping it off with a kopi, a traditional coffee drink made from beans roasted with butter and sugar, sometimes served with rich condensed milk. Finish off your heritage walk with some of Singapore’s striking contemporary architecture: the Norman Foster-designed Supreme Court, the Esplanade Theatres or the flower-shaped ArtScience Museum, reached via the quirky Helix Bridge, shaped like DNA’s double-helix. The backdrop for all this is the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, one of the world’s most photographed hotels. Designed to resemble three decks of cards, it’s joined together at the 57th floor by a stunning SkyPark with the world’s highest infinity pool, a lounge and bar. Anyone can visit the SkyPark Observation Deck for stunning
colorful Hindu temples. Singapore’s “hawker centres” are something of a foodie legend. You could spend days shuttling between the biggest ones, sampling from stalls of Singaporean, Indian, Chinese, Malay and Indonesian cuisine. Seating is usually outdoors on shared benches under a canopy. Walk up to a stall and look at the pictures. Then order, pay the cashier and wait for your food (sometimes it will be brought to your table). You can buy different plates from different vendors. Don’t forget fresh juices (sugar cane is a must) and desserts (mango, please!). I ate satay every day. Also great: the ubiquitous, succulent stir-fried squid with onions, scallions and shallots in a spicy tomato sauce. Most dishes cost around US$5. Food courts in malls charge a bit more for similar fare, but with air conditioning. Speaking of malls, Orchard Boulevard is lined with luxury shopping centers, worth a visit for people-watching if not for browsing. Istana, the presidential palace, is at Orchard Road’s southern end, while the Botanical Garden is at its northern tip. I skipped the Botanical Garden in favor of Singapore’s hippest attraction, Gardens by the Bay. Adjacent to Marina • Tropical climate, frequent rainfall Bay Sands, the park is (heaviest November-early January) dotted with “Supertrees” • EZ-Link transit cards cover public — structures as tall as transportation and taxis, as well as many 15-story buildings that food and drink outlets function as vertical gardens, • www.yoursingapore.com/en.html loaded with exotic plants. A spectacular sound and light show plays here twice every evening, creating a sci-fi forest. At the Singapore Zoo, most animals live outdoors, cage-free, from penguins and crocodiles to white tigers and polar bears. A combined ticket to the zoo and nearby night safari by tram will save you some cash. Safaris sell out, so book ahead. All in all, the mix of cultures, food, colonial heritage and modern — even futuristic — infrastructure and amenities makes the country an ideal destination. Just be sure to leave your bubblegum home.
360-degree views of the harbor and skyline, but the pool is open only to hotel guests. Rooms are pricey — more than $250 a night even in low season (summer-early fall). Singapore is extremely clean. You’re not allowed to bring gum into the country, and the U.S. State Department’s travel advisory warns about physical punishment for vandalism. (I unthinkingly popped a soda open on the subway, then quickly hid it in response to other passengers’ disparaging stares.) But ethnic and traditional neighborhoods are a little less sterile and more colorful than downtown streets. Chinatown is dotted with temples and buildings attesting to the rich heritage of Malay-born Chinese who immigrated here in the 19th century. You’ll see fine art deco homes on streets like Ann Siang Road. At the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, a tooth ostensibly belonging to the Buddha is encased in a 900-pound solidgold stupa. Little India is a jolting feast for the senses: busy shops selling anything from cellphones to spices, hole-in-the-wall restaurants with flavorful cuisine, mosques and

Supertrees light up the financial skyline from the newly open Gardens By The Bay during a light and sound show in Singapore in 2012. These Supertrees range from 25-50 meters in height and serve as vertical gardens at the Gardens By The Bay just next to Singapore’s busy financial district.

RMI’S INNOVATION CENTER
MAY SELBY
IN DECEMBER 2015, Rocky Mountain Institute’s new Innovation Center was complete, adding an exciting new enterprise to downtown Basalt. Located at 22830 Two Rivers Road, the Innovation Center is a 15,610-square-foot office building and state-of-the-art convening center. Co-founded in 1982 by Amory Lovins, its Chairman Emeritus and Chief Scientist, RMI now has approximately 150 full-time staff, annual operations of $30 million, and a global reach and reputation. It serves as an independent, non-partisan nonprofit that drives the efficient and restorative use of resources. To advance its mission and propel the industry, RMI constructed the LEED Platinum-certified facility to demonstrate how deep green buildings are designed, contracted, built, and occupied.
On Feb. 24, RMI celebrated the Innovation Center’s grand opening with a special reception featuring New York Times columnist and author Tom Friedman who spoke before an audience with Lovins about the building and important work done by RMI on a local and global scale. Lovins shared their intent to build the center as a “living lab” and all that was learned in the process of its development that can be used as a model for constructing and managing other buildings. In doing so it will serve as a practical model to inform thousands of buildings that would otherwise contribute significantly to the climate crisis. The Innovation Center not only exceeds Architecture 2030 Challenge goals, but is also poised to receive an Energy Star target
score of 10 this summer. Starting in June, the public is invited to visit the Innovation Center on complimentary tours offered on the first and third Thursdays of each month at 4 p.m. In July and August, they’ll be offered weekly every Thursday at 4 p.m. For more info, visit www.rmi.org/ innovationcenter. Contact May with insights, invites or info: allthewaymaymay@hotmail.com.

BEARING WITNESS
ASPEN PHOTOGRAPHER ANDREA BOOHER OPENS SHOW AT 9/11 MEMORIAL & MUSEUM SOOT-COVERED FIREMEN working together to extinguish hot spots. Search and rescue teams looking for bodies in gnarled shrapnel. Warm sunlight splashing over seemingly endless rubble. These are some of the historic images Aspenbased photographer Andrea Booher captured in her more than two months embedded with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) at Ground Zero after the September 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. Booher has a rare eye for finding hope and humanity amid despair. Following fire and rescue workers, her work is the photographic embodiment of Mr. Rogers’ sage advice on coping with tragedy: “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” Her photographs have hung in the 9/11 Memorial & Museum since it opened in 2014, in a section dedicated to the recovery efforts. But this month marks her first solo exhibition in the space, in a show that includes more than 70 of her photos – some blown up to stand as high as two stories. Titled “Hope at Ground Zero: FEMA Photographs by Andrea Booher,” the exhibition opened May 18. Booher arrived at Ground Zero on Sept. 12, 2001 not knowing what she’d be doing. Working for FEMA, she spent the next 10 weeks following them as they searched for survivors and recovered bodies. When Mayor Rudolph Giuliani cut media access to the site, Booher became one of just two FEMA photographers granted unrestricted access to Ground Zero. She immediately understood the historical import of her work. “It was clear to me that the photos I was shooting would be the historical document of the event and would be important,” Booher told me before heading to New York for the exhibition opening. “It was this incredible honor but also a huge responsibility.” As a photographer for the federal government, priorities could get “silly,” as Booher puts it – a congressman, for example, might request her to photograph him touring the Ground Zero field office instead of sticking with the recovery workers in the

rubble. She credits her boss at FEMA, Ed Conley, with keeping her focus on documenting the recovery. “He had to come up with some creative stories to keep us in the field,” she recalls with a laugh. Brought together by tragedy, Booher has stayed in touch with the rescuers and relief workers who were her subjects. Her intimacy with them comes through in her evocative 9/11 images. “My work on 9/11 was about people, and I have a very unique bond with so many of these people,” she says. “It’s the bond of a shared experience, to be working at Ground Zero, searching for survivors. It’s not something that you just kind of put away like a photograph of your vacation in Tahiti. It stays with you and becomes a part of you.” Booher has covered more than 200 disasters as a photographer and with FEMA. She spent the recent winter in Texas, documenting the extreme weather there that sent floods and tornados across the state. But she’s managed not to be numbed by jumping from catastrophe to catastrophe through
her career. Putting together her show for the 9/11 Museum brought back strong emotions and surprisingly good memories. “It’s a good experience when I look back on it,” she says. “What I saw and the humanity that came out at the site and tenderness amid this very brutal, harsh environment — we experienced so much tenderness. And I think the whole world did. We saw a good side of humanity come forward.” As an artist with a deep personal relationship to Ground Zero and the aftermath of 9/11, Booher has been pleased with how the museum and memorial came together in recent years – becoming a place for
remembrance and an educational tool for the generations to come. “I think they’ve done a really good job at honoring a lot of different people, from the deceased to the responders to the families,” she says. “Overall it’s a very solemn museum. It’s a place where you can’t help but reflect deeply.” For her next project, Booher is looking at exploring countries that have initiated models for forgiveness in the wake of genocide: “I’m interested in the themes of forgiveness and reconciliation.” atravers@aspentimes.com

The Applicant filed its Application for a Finding of Diligence on February 29, 2016. The Application seeks a finding of diligence on the following structures: Resolution Creek Reservoir, Lower East Fork Reservoir, Eagle Park Reservoir, Eagle Park Wetland Irrigation System, Eagle Park Aquifer Well Field, and Homestake Project structures, including: Homestake Conduit, East Fork Conduit, Homestake Tunnel, Homestake Reservoir, and Eagle Arkansas Ditch. A decree for these structures was originally entered in Case No. 88CW449 by the District Court for Water Division No. 5. A finding of diligence was subsequently entered in Case No. 08CW111. 2. A subsequent Decree for the Homestake Project was entered in Case No. 95CW272-A in the District Court for Water Division No. 5, on March 16, 2011. The legal descriptions of certain remaining conditional water rights of the Homestake Project were changed, and alternate points of diversion added, by the Decree entered in this case. 3. Two changes have been made to the proposed Amended Application. 4. First, in the Application, the Applicant stated in the last sentence of Paragraph 5(B), in regards to Case No. 03CW320, that “The federal District Court entered a final decree in November 2012.” This statement is not factually accurate. The District Court for Water Division No. 5 was the court that entered a final decree in November 2012 in Case No. 03CW320. 5. The Applicant seeks to amend the last sentence of Paragraph 5(B) to state the following: “The District Court for Water Division No. 5 entered a final decree in November 2012.” The Applicant has attached hereto an Amended Application incorporating this change. A map of the structures at issue is also attached, though this map has not changed since the original filing. 6. Second, the proposed Amended Application modifies Paragraph 3.F.3.a by listing alternate and changed points of diversion for the Exchange From Locations listed in Paragraph 3.F.5.a., as decreed in Case No. 95CW272, and by providing background on Case No. 95CW272. The Application as originally filed included only the original points of diversion, not the alternate and changed points of diversion. The changes to Paragraph 3.F.3.a are set forth below. 3. Describe conditional water rights: F. 1988 Homestake Exchange: 1. Original Decree: Case No. 88CW449, District Court Water Division No. 5. a. In Case No. 95CW272-A, District Court Water Division No. 5, a Decree was entered on March 16, 2011, for conditional water rights, for changes of water rights, and for approval of a plan for augmentation, including exchange. The legal descriptions of certain conditional water rights of the Homestake Project were changed, and alternate points of diversion added, by the Decree entered in this case. 2. Date of Original Decree: August 20, 2002. 3. Location and Legal Description: a. Exchange From Points: Homestake Project, including: 1. Homestake Conduit. The Homestake Conduit receives and delivers appropriated water to Homestake Reservoir for conveyance to Homestake Tunnel or storage in the reservoir from the following sources: Stream or Other Source of Supply

These filings were made to adjudicate its plan and method of substitution operations for its Blue River Water Rights as described in the 2003 Memorandum of Agreement Regarding Colorado Springs Substitution Operations with the Colorado River Water Conservation District, the City and County of Denver, the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District, the County of Summit, Vail Summit Resorts, Inc., and the Town of Breckenridge, and a related Memorandum of Agreement with the County of Summit, Vail Summit Resorts, Inc. and the Town of Breckenridge (collectively the 2003 MOA). Upon dismissal of the federal District Court action, Colorado Springs continued to pursue adjudication of Case No. 03CW320 by entering into stipulations with various opposers during the diligence period and submitting proposed decrees in November 2011 and September 2012. The District Court for Water Division No. 5 entered a final decree in November 2012.

BOOK REVIEW
‘EVERYBODY’S FOOL’ LAST JUNE when Richard Russo was in town teaching at Aspen Summer Words, he mentioned that he’d just finished a new novel – a sequel to 1993’s “Nobody’s Fool.” The news, at least for this reader, was met with a mix of excitement and trepidation. It could be a joy to again pull up a stool at the White Horse Tavern and catch up with antihero Donald “Sully” Sullivan and the hard-luck folks of hard-luck North Bath, N.Y. But decades-later novelistic sequels often have a way of disappointing the imagination – recent examples include Bret Easton Ellis’s belated “Less Than Zero” sequel and Harper Lee’s “Go Set a Watchmen.” Thankfully, Russo’s sequel, “Everybody’s Fool,” doesn’t diminish it predecessor. This broad, black comedy picks up 10 years after the original and

focuses on two madcap days filled with incident in the economically depressed old upstate New York mill town. Now in the late 1990s, the town is still in the shadow of the better-off Schuyler Springs. Buildings collapse and toxic sludge rises out the earth in this Bath, there are good guys and some very bad guys, but the novel remains mostly a character-based slice of life from the Pulitzer Prize-winning Russo, America’s poet laureate of emptied-out working class mill towns. Sully is the same crotchety wiseacre, but a decade older, moving a little slower, suffering from a heart condition and an improved economic standing. He’s less the protagonist here than part of an ensemble made up mostly of the same folks as “Nobody’s Fool.” The bumbling cop Douglas Raymer has been promoted to police chief, and he carries much

of the narrative here. Through his pratfalls and clumsy speech (he’s misprinted his business cards with the motto “We’re not happy until you’re not happy”) he’s a loveable lug. Raymer is obsessed with the infidelity of his recently deceased wife. He carries a garage door opener that he found in her car and hatches a plan to find her lover by going garage-togarage through Bath. But that quest, like most of the overactive whiz-bang plot points in “Everybody’s Fool,” seems an excuse for Russo to follow Raymer around town, observing his quirks and those of this vanishing piece of America.
