COVERING BEAUFORT COUNTY
Beaufort Co. honors top teachers, support staff for 2019
Sharks’ teeth rule day again By Bob Sofaly The 2019 Shark Tooth Frenzy was another biting success as more than 1,000 people lined up at the water’s edge to gather up megalodon teeth, arrowheads and shells Saturday morning at The Sands in Port Royal. The megalodon was a huge shark that swam in this area millions of years ago. Its name actually means “large tooth”. More than 3,000 artifacts, some millions of years old, were collected by Mike Harris, a.k.a. the Shark Tooth Fairy, and redistributed in the water for all to find. For younger children, Harris put teeth and shells in a specific tidal pool so everybody, no matter their age, had the opportunity to find something.

Many artifacts were in plain view in the shallowest of water to give even the youngest of children a chance to find a tooth. Photos by Bob Sofaly.
City addressing drainage issues in Mossy Oaks The Jane Way drainage area near Beaufort Middle School in the Mossy Oaks neighborhood has been the site of numerous flooding events over the past three years. Now, the city is undertaking a multi-million dollar drainage improvement project to alleviate flooding in the area. As part of that project, the
Department of Health and Environmental Control has issued a permit allowing maintenance and repair of portions of the Jane Way drainage area. This work will increase rainwater capacity and reduce the potential for flooding. The permit includes the following areas: • Drainage ditch to the North West of the

• Portions of Center Drive East (S.C. S-7-251) from South Drive South to Mossy Oaks Road The area will be cleared of all obstructions, vegetative growth and garbage to facilitate improved drainage. Every effort will be made to preserve trees that do not impede drainage. Contractors will access

While teachers got a lot of attention statewide last week as a result of the 10,000 or more who took part in the SC for ED demonstration at the Statehouse in Columbia, a few in Beaufort County, along with their support staff counterparts, got a little more attention later in the week when they were announced as 20192020 Teachers of the Year and Support Staff of the Year for their respective schools. The teachers and support staff were surprised Friday with flowers, pep rallies, and breakfasts as Board of Education members made surprise visits to announce the honors. “We have so many strong teachers and support staff,” Board of Education chairwoman Christina Gwozdz said in a release, “and this is a day when we recognize a group of them to represent all of our outstanding professionals. The fact that they were selected through a process that involved their peers makes their recognition even more significant." Teachers of the Year are selected by their peers according to criteria established by the schools, the S.C. Department of Education and the district’s teacher forum. Teachers honored Fiday will be eligible for District Teacher of the Year honors next fall. Support staff honorees are selected by school staff and can include social workers, school nurses, bookkeepers, office managers, teacher assistants, school secretaries and technology and data specialists. Staff honored Friday will be eligible for District Support Staff Person of the Year. Here are the 2019-2020 Beaufort County Teachers of the Year and Support Staff of the Year listed by school: Battery Creek High: Beth Ann Melton (teacher), Barbara Layman (support) Beaufort Elementary: Christene Johnson-Holmes, Sharlene Washington-Robinson Beaufort High: Wendy Lacombe, Melissa Lather Beaufort Middle: Rhonda McCauley, Cynthia Ytyarte Beaufort-Jasper ACE: Raquel Bryan, Antoinette Heyward Bluffton Elementary, ECC: Rachel Gauvreau, Nancy Toggweiler Bluffton High: Michelle Gordon, Kitty Bryant Bluffton Middle: Donna Floyd, Monica Prieto Broad River Elementary: Arriel Young, Austin Major Coosa Elementary: Cynthia Jeffrey, Tammi Ivey

Marines, Parris Island may get $37.2 million for range The U.S. Marine Corps’ request for $37.2 million to modernize and improve a live-fire training range at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island may be approved after all. Representative Joe Cunningham of South Carolina’s first district announced last week that the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs had voted to approve an additional $546 million to fund Navy and
Marine Corps construction projects that were not included in President Trump’s budget request for 2020. Among those unfunded projects was the Marine Corps’ request for $37.2 million. Cunningham also advocated for Parris Island’s range modernization project in his March testimony before the House Committee on Armed Services. Before recruits aboard Parris Island are able to graduate, each of
them must qualify with their service rifles on the depot’s training ranges. Without the funding necessary to complete the Marine Corps’ range modernization and improvement project, training may need to be curtailed, potentially disrupting the flow of new Marines and diminishing military readiness. “As one of two training depots in the country that makes enlisted Marines, and the only depot that makes
enlisted women Marines, Parris Island plays a critical role in ensuring our national security,” Cunningham said in a release. “It is absolutely critical Parris Island has the resources it needs to continue to prepare our best and brightest to fight and win our nation’s battles. I urge House appropriators to protect this funding during the full committee markup so that we can get it through the House floor later this year.”
YMCA: Take an active role in your kids’ relationship with the water As part of National Water Safety Month in May, the Beaufort-Jasper YMCA of the Lowcountry and the Wardle Family YMCA in Port Royal encourage parents to take an active role in fostering a relationship between their children and swimming — beginning with water safety. The following are safety tips to practice when in and around the water: • Only swim when and where there is a lifeguard on duty; never swim alone. • Adults should constantly and actively watch their children. • Inexperienced or non-swimmers should wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket. • Parents or guardians of young children should be within an arm’s reach. • Children and adults should not engage in breath holding activities. In addition to learning lifesaving water safety skills, swimming is a great way to increase physical activity. Swimming also motivates children to strive for self-improvement, teach-

es goal orientation and cultivates a positive mental attitude and high self-esteem. “It’s never too early to get children involved in swimming—it’s an important for safety reasons, but also a great way to keep active and healthy,” Wardle Family YMCA aquatics director Lou Bergen said in a release. “In fact, newer studies show that children as young as 1-year-old can benefit from formal swim lessons. There are so many options for parents, but the best place to start is by learning basic water safety skills that helps get kids familiar with the water that often continues with swim lessons and competitive swim programs and can even lead to a career.” Kids are not the only age-group that should learn to swim. The Lowcountry is 51 percent marsh, river and ocean — the ‘land’ is quite literally surrounded by water — so it is obvious that learning how to swim well is a necessity for adults as well as kids. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than a third of adults in the United
States can’t swim the length of a pool, which puts them at risk of being 1 of the 10 people who drown every day in the U.S. In 2018 the Wardle Family Y taught over 7,000 swim sessions to local kids and adults, over half for free or at a reduced cost. This is made possible through donations to the YMCA Annual Scholarship campaign, the Y Learn to Swim program, grants and funds raised at the Beaufort River Swim, which is coming up on Saturday May 18. This 3.2–mile competitive water swim and 1-mile fun swim is now in its 13th year and is the only open water swim in Beaufort County. As a leading nonprofit committed to youth development, the Y has been a leader in providing swim lessons and water safety locally for more than 23 years. The Wardle Family YMCA continues to help youth and adults experience the joy and benefits of swimming, so they can be healthy, confident and secure in the water. There are a variety of programs to choose, including: • Age group lessons including
parent/child and private swim lessons. • Lap swimming. • (BYAC) Tiger Sharks Swim Team with 3 levels of teams members (Shark Pups, TigerSharks Level 1, & TigerSharks Level 2). • Water aerobics group exercises classes. • Fluid Fitness (work out ON the water!). • Aqua Camp (specialty summer camp). • Lifeguard Training. • Masters Swim. • 100-Mile Swim Club. • Scuba. To ensure that everyone has an opportunity to participate, financial assistance is available.

LEAN ON FRIENDS WHO UNDERSTAND
Bereavement “Dialogues of the Carmelites” Support ends Met Opera HD series Group By Alan Schuster Mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard, memorable for her Nov. 2018 Met performance as a deceitful thief in the title role of “Marnie,” is one of the most in-demand opera singers in the world today. And now she’s back, this time on stage – believe it or not – in the starkly dissimilar role of a nun in the Met’s HD season finale of Francis Poulenc’s “Dialogues des Carmelites.” It’s also a terrifying finale for 16 nuns, who are beheaded one by one – and amplified by swishes of the guillotine – for refusing to renounce their vocation. Summary: The opera begins during the French Revolution. To escape the violence enacted on members of the aristocracy, Blanche de la Force forsakes the outside world and joins a Carmelite monastery. The Mother Superior corrects her way of thinking; the monastery cannot protect her, it must be her that protects the monastery. Later, as the Mother Superior lies dying, she places Blanche into the service of Mother Marie before passing away in great pain, claiming to be forsaken by God. This deeply bothers the witnesses to her death. Sister Constance wonders to Blanche if the Mother Superior had been given a death meant for someone else, suggesting that a peaceful death will come to someone else. When the chaplain has been forbidden to preach, the future of the monastery seems uncertain. Although

What: Dialogues of the Carmelites, finale of the Met Opera’s HD series When: Noon, Saturday, May 11 Where: USCB Center for the Arts, 801 Carteret Street, Beaufort Tickets: Adults $20, OLLI members $18, Students $10. All seats are general admission. Order online at www. centerforthearts.com or call 843-521-4145. Mother Marie wishes to give her life to change the situation in France, the new Mother Superior informs her that only God may decide who will become a martyr. When the monastery falls under the ownership of the state, a police officer comes, insisting the nuns to give up their religious habits. Mother Marie convinces the other nuns to take a vow of martyrdom; although they all agree, Blanche has run away. Mother Marie goes off to search for her, finding her in the library of her father. Blanche’s father was sent to the guillotine, and so Blanche finds herself at the mercy of her former servants. While Mother Marie is away, the nuns have all been arrested and sentenced to death. The chaplain shares his belief that by being away at the time, God has chosen to spare Mother Marie, thus she cannot martyr herself alongside her sisters. When the time comes for the execution of the nuns,
Blanche appears to join the doomed company. As the others are beheaded one by one before the guillotine, Blanche begins to sing a hymn offering her life to God. (Source: Met Opera) New York Times critic Anthony Tommasini has written this about the opera: "Poulenc's subtle and intricate tonal language is by turns hymnal and haunting. Though scored for a large orchestra, the instruments are often used in smaller groups selected for particular effects and colorings. The most distinctive element of the score, though, is its wonderfully natural vocal writing, which captures the rhythms and lyrical flow of the libretto in eloquent music that hardly calls attention to itself yet lingers with you." Opera historian Charles Osborne wrote that ""The inexorable dramatic movement of the work is impressive and, in the final scene in which the nuns walk in procession to the guillotine chanting the “Salve regina,” is extremely moving. Google: Salve regina Carmelites; then select XV FAO. Cast: Joining Isabel Leonard as the young Blanche de la Force will be Met legend Karita Mattila, Adrianne Pieczonka, David Portillo and Dwayne Croft. Met Music Director Yannick Nezet-Seguin conducts.

SCHOOLS SCHOOL BRIEFS
Beaufort Co. high school seniors getting air time
Seventeen seniors preparing to graduate from Beaufort County School District high schools will discuss their experiences and share their opinions during a one-hour television program airing on the County Channel.

Reasons for Faith
Following the Facts An Atheist Becomes a Believer
Jen was raised in a happy home without religious upbringing.
As a new wife and mother, Jen started to have doubts.
Her father, an engineer, had given her a love of science and had taught her to follow the facts wherever they lead, without letting emotions cloud her judgment. From a young age, it seemed to Jen that there were no logical reasons to believe in God. It was fine if others wanted to have religious beliefs, but she considered them to be fairy tales created to bring people comfort.
Now 27, she was married to the man of her dreams and had just given birth to a beautiful boy. Reflecting on the love that she and her husband shared, and the unconditional love that she now had for her son, Jen began to be open to the possibility that perhaps there was something beyond the physical. To her surprise, she realized that she could no longer believe that we were simply collections of neurons, or that the love she felt for her husband and her child were merely products of brain chemistry.
She was convinced that the material world is all there is.
Like the atheist authors she admired, Jen believed that there is no such thing as a soul. Our thoughts and feelings are simply the result of chemical reactions in the brain. When we die, we cease to exist, and nothing of ourselves continues on. This realization brought about a sense of despair and hopelessness within Jen. What meaning did her life and actions have, if she was destined to turn to dust? But she found that she could distract herself from such thoughts with moments of worldly happiness. So she resolved to chase such moments and get as much enjoyment out of life as she could.
With a new openness, Jen began to explore reasons for faith.
She decided to begin by examining Christianity, since it is the only major religion whose founder claimed to be God. She figured such a specific claim should be relatively easy to disprove. She started a blog online and and invited Christians to respond to her toughest objections. To her surprise, she found there were actually logical, compelling answers to her questions. Slowly, as she followed the facts, she increasingly became convinced that the evidence pointed to faith in God and, more specifically, to faith in Jesus. Emotionally, she didn’t want to be a Christian and change her way of life, but she was determined to follow the truth, wherever it led her. Gradually, Jen opened herself up to a relationship with God.
She and her husband joined a nearby church. With the encouragement of those they met, they slowly grew in their relationship with God. They are now faith-filled Christians, following Christ as loving parents to six children. Jen still considers herself a work in progress, on a lifelong journey of conversion and spiritual growth. She no longer needs to distract herself from despair and hopelessness; her life is now filled with purpose and hope. Jennifer Fulwiler recounts her conversion story in her engaging and humorous autobiography, Something Other Than God. You can also visit jenniferfulwiler.com to learn more about Jen and her radio show.

VOICES
Common sense formula works for county’s jobs development group By Bill Rauch The Beaufort County Economic Development Corporation (BCEDC) is on track to meet its goal of attracting $50M in business investment into Beaufort County this fiscal year. The fiscal year will conclude on June 31, and the BCEDC’s executive director, John A. O’Toole, says 14 projects that represent more than $40 million in business investment are Bill in hand now, Rauch and another handful with anticipated investment totals that together exceed $10 million are about to be announced.
Beyond that, O’Toole says, BCEDC is aware of and working with another $30 million of business investment in the near-term pipeline After years of expensive disappointments handed to taxpayers by predecessor economic development groups, how did BCEDC do it? “Well, it’s a couple of things,” O’Toole explained last week. “We work with everyone: the Southern Alliance, the Digital Corridor, the Don Ryan Center for Innovation, the Commerce Park; we tell people right away if we think their business isn’t a good fit. For example, we screened out a group that needed to bring in and out 150 18-wheelers daily – we told them “no” right off; and most important-
ly we go hunting for rabbits and deer … not elephants.” Those rabbits and deer piled up pretty quick this year. The 14 projects that BCEDC has announced already represent 313 new jobs and 104 retained jobs that represent over $15 million in annual compensation. The average annual wage for these new and retained jobs is $48,000, BCEDC’s figures show. “These are scaleable projects that in and of themselves don’t change the landscape,” O’Toole adds. “They’re not alarming to people.” Not counted in the $50 million figure is the $150 million that is either being spent now or is expected to be spent next year on solar farms in
Beaufort County. That’s because after they are constructed, solar farms aren’t jobs producers, and BCEDC’s mission is to bring in businesses that create jobs. The largest of the businesses on O’Toole’s list is Lockheed Martin who now has 75 people on the ground at Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, and it is expected to be announcing additions to that number soon. Lockheed Martin is the manufacturer of the Marine Corps’ F-35B Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter. MCAS Beaufort is a key home field and training facility for these new Generation 5 military aircraft. Also high on the list are Burnt Church Distilleries, a
Bluffton-based spirits manufacturer that is employing 35 people, and Watterson Brands, the holding company that owns Burnt Church Distilleries and a number of other companies that have been initiated by recent Bluffton transplant Billy Watterson. The holding company employs 19. Also on O’Toole’s list is Alpha Genesis, a primate research and products center in Yemassee that is ramping up its activities. Alpha Genesis has added 32 jobs this year. “Here’s what we also work on,” O’Toole added. “The environment, we have to guard it fiercely because it’s what brings people here; K-12 education, because that’s what equips the group who are
Pondering the road that was not taken By Scott Graber It is Wednesday, and I’m in the lobby of the Arthouse Hotel, just off Broadway, on the Upper West Side. The lobby features an unpainted brick wall and a poured and polished concrete floor. The bricks and concrete are softened by illuminated book cases, dark gray sofas, and people who are speaking in tongues — foreign tourists whose animation is testament to the fact that New York City is exceeding their expectations. My wife and I first visited New York just after our wedding in 1968, and we chose to stay on the Upper West Side. We chose this part of the City because my wife’s sister, Kathy, lived on West End Avenue and gave us her apartment for a week as a wedding gift.
From that point forward Zabar’s, Citarella, Papparadella, the Beacon Theatre and the young, ambitious folks living just off Amsterdam and Columbus Avenues became our desScott tination. Graber The West Side was less desirable than the East Side where uniformed doorman kept the unwashed at bay. And there were homeless folks, car thieves with screwdrivers and rotting garbage on every feces-smeared sidewalk in those in those sepia-tinted, long-gone days. But if you could get past the stench of the garbage, there was also excitement and expectation in the air. In the 1970s, our West Side
weekend visits meant talks with my brother-in-law, John Littlewood, who was then a rising star in advertising. He, and several others, introduced the Pillsbury Doughboy to biscuit-eating Americans. I, by contrast, was under the influence of a young, irreverent law professor (at George Washington University) named John Banzhaf who would eventually win acclaim by banning cigarette smoking on airplanes. In the meantime Banzhaf was going after deceptive advertising at the Federal Trade Commission. John Littlewood and I would meet at Allstates Cafe, on 72nd Street, and would start with Richard Nixon and the Vietnam War. But we always worked our way round to the advertising business — debating the selling of cigarettes or oil companies
Motherisms
My mother was a member of The Greatest Generation and one of those women who became a mother in the late 1940s and 1950s. These women produced the infamous Baby Boom Generation. Like many of the women of her era, Mom judged her own parenting skills on what Dr. Benjamin Spock, the famous pediatrician, had written in his best-selling book “Baby and Child Care.” But it did not stop there. She was also expected to emulate those perfect mothers in the sit-coms of the day. Shows like, “Leave it

that put lead into gasoline or Campbell’s that put marbles in the bottom of the bowl when photographing their vegetable soup. It was good, content-rich talk that pitted the unregulated commercialism of New York against rule-making bureaucrats in Washington. It was ‘buyer beware’ versus ‘buyer forewarned and forearmed.’ And I must confess that I was impressed by my brotherin-law and his friends. They were creative, they travelled (John also handled the Pan American Airlines account) and were well-paid. I began to believe I could live, even flourish on the Upper West Side. A law school graduate has one important decision to make after he or she graduates — where does he or she
Now what?
HIGHLIGHTING DAILY LIFE OBSERVATIONS Lee Scott, a writer and recent retiree, shares her everyday observations about life after career. A former commercial banker responsible for helping her clients to reach their business objectives, Scott now translates those analytical skills to her writings. She lives on St. Helena Island and enjoys boating, traveling and reading. to Beaver” and “The Donna Reed Show” that depicted women in their starched cotton dresses wearing a string of pearls and dealing with mundane parenting issues. However, sometime during the period between 1949, when she had her first baby, and 1965, when she had her last baby, Mom threw out Dr. Spock’s book and turned
off the television. From that point on, parenting was based on her Motherisms. Now these were a group of phrases Mom threw out at us kids daily. Things like “I will give you something to cry about young lady.” Or “How would you like to be the first person on the moon?” Naturally, that phrase
went out the door in 1969 when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. Or another good one, “If your brother told you to jump off the Brooklyn Bridge, would you do it?” (By the way, it was never a good idea to answer her questions.) But she also included philosophical phrases like “Take everything with a grain of
going into the jobs that come here; transportation, because that’s how the goods and services that the jobs that come here produce get moved to market; and workforce housing, because the people going into the jobs that come here have to have an affordable place to live that’s not two hours away from the workplace.” That’s the formula. Its current success has certainly been helped by the recent strong economy. But, good times or bad, it’s pretty tough to dispute that O’Toole’s common sense approach is one that fits Beaufort County.

take the bar examination? This is a hard test and a hard decision because you only want to take this test once. And where you take the test determines, for most, where you will spend the rest of your life. My choices were New York, Washington, D.C. and South Carolina. There was a natural gravitation pull back to the South where my people lived, died and were buried. But my wife was from Connecticut — rode the New Haven Railroad into the City — and the ferment, the demonstrations, and excitement of the 60s and 70s were focused in Washington and New York City. These things were not focused in South Carolina. And so I was sleeping on West End Avenue when I got a call from my mother telling me I had passed the bar. In South Carolina.
Yes, in the end, I went back to South Carolina and moved to a small, obscure place called Beaufort County — a place not then known to most New Yorkers, whose singular contact with South Carolina was a place called ‘South of the Border.’ In an hour or so, I will meet my son and his lovely, longtime girlfriend at Viand — a diner on Broadway and 75th Street — and we will talk of bagels, rugelach and his 104th Street, Upper West Side life. He made his decision, and I made mine, and those decisions set us upon different seas. We don’t regret these decisions but sometimes wonder about the road not taken.

salt.” “Trust your gut” and my all-time favorite “If it doesn’t sound right, it probably isn’t.” It was very strange for me during my own child-rearing years when I started to hear my mother’s voice coming out of my own mouth. All those Motherisms rolled easily off my tongue. I remember calling one of my sisters and saying, “Oh no, I have turned into our Mother!” That’s when she told me that she found herself yelling at her boys for getting in the pool too soon after eating. Mom would say “No swim-
ming for at least 20 minutes after lunch, or else you will get cramps and drown.” I think she made this one up so she could get a break from watching us all swim. But some of her Motherisms I have used throughout my life and now hear my own children say them to my grandchildren. When I heard my daughter say to her son “If you believe that one, I have a bridge to sell you.” I had to burst out laughing. Classic Mom. So, Happy Mother’s Day, Mom. You may be gone, but your Motherisms are alive and well.
FOOD WINE & DINE
Magnolias and wine: The lightness of summer By Celia Strong Summer weather always changes drinking patterns. Everything gets lighter, color and weight. More white liquor is consumed than dark. More white and rose wine than red. No reason to be shocked, though. The same thing happens with food, clothing and much more. The chore is to find new wines to keep things interesting and tasting good. Sauvignon Blanc is a white variety that has become more popular recently. Partly because different styles from different countries and regions have become available. And, partly, because wine drinkers have continued to search out new wines. In Sonoma County, Sauvignon Blanc is the second most popular white grape. Partly because the wines from Sonoma Sauvignon Blanc grapes, as a group, compare well with both Old World and New World style wines. Which means they find more fans among more consumers. More than 10,000 tons of Sauvignon Blanc are crushed in Sonoma County every vintage at a cost of just under $2,000 per ton. This variety is an old one, actually one of the parents of Cabernet Sauvignon. Its name comes from French term for “wild, or savage.” It has had great success in the Loire Valley of France and New Zealand. And now Sonoma.
Green flavors and aromas are one of the attractions of Sauvignon Blanc wines. These Celia can range Strong from fresh cut grass to green grapes, gooseberries to dry hay or straw. How much of any of these flavors depends on the micro-climate where the grapes are grown and techniques used in its wine making. Within Sonoma County, different sun-regions, or AVAs, produce distinct styles of wines. Alexander Valley, with its gravelly soil, shows less greenness in its wines. Dry Creek Valley Sauvignon Blancs are a bit fruitier. From the Russian River AVA the wines are more deeply fruity. Bennett Valley produces a cooler climate, lighter style of wine. Sonoma Valley wines are a bit fuller bodied. Outlot Winert is located on the Magnolia Peninsula near Healdsburg in Sonoma County. The Dry Creek is to its north, the Russian River to its south. This area of Sonoma County, since the 1800’s, has been recognized by farmers for its very rich, very deep soil, … 24 feet deep in some places. Outlot wines strive to be a tribute to this heritage. Including the magnolia on their labels. Our particular Sonoma
County Sauvignon Blanc, Outlot, is a blend of grapes from of several AVAs. It is 55 percent Dry Creek Valley grapes, 40 percent Russian River grapes and 5 percent Alexander Valley. (Legally, to claim a particular AVA as the source for a wine, 85 percent of the grapes must come from that AVA.) Like blending several grapes to make a more complex wine, blending one variety from several sources also makes a more multi-layered and flavored wine. Over the growing season in all three of these AVAs, warm days and cool nights let the grapes ripen with lower sugar levels and an extremely bright acidity. In the vineyards, canopies of leaves protect the grapes from too much direct sunlight. Harvesting whole berry clusters, at night, enhances these characteristics as well. Fermentation is done in 100-percent stainless steel. With controlled temperatures. The Outlot Sauvignon Blanc is a pale straw color. Its aromas and flavors include lemongrass and grapefruit, hints of green peppers and capers, passion fruit, guava and kaffir lime. It is medium bodied with a refreshing, crisp acidity and a lingering finish. All perfect for warm weather sipping. Sitting under blooming local Magnolia trees. For $15.97. Enjoy.
