COVERING BEAUFORT COUNTY

Plenty of spooky fun on tap for Halloween

November ballot issue would support land preservation

Photo by Paul Nurnberg

One of the questions Beaufort County voters will be asked at the ballot box Nov. 6 is whether to allow the county to issue up to $25 million in bonds to support the county’s Rural and Critical Lands Preservation Program. A yes vote on the issue would allow the county to release up to $25 million “for the purpose of land preservation, by purchasing open land in Beaufort County in order to protect water quality, protect local waterways such as the Port Royal Sound, and local creeks and rivers such as the Okatie,

Broad and May Rivers, wildlife areas, wetlands, natural lands, farmland, coastal areas, shellfish beds, and nursery areas for recreational and commercial fisheries, and beaches, and provide buffers for the Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort.” The measure calls for all expenditures to

be subject to an annual independent audit and stipulates no more than 20 percent of the funds may be used to improve existing and newly acquired open space and natural areas protected under the program. SEE LAND, PAGE A2

County GOP joins in support of transportation tax The Beaufort County Republican Party (BCRP) Executive Committee has voted unanimously to support the proposed Transportation Sales and Use Tax on the Nov. 6 ballot. “This support is based on the commitment from Beaufort County Council that the sales tax proceeds can only be used legally for projects stated on the ballot,” said a party spokesperson. Sherri Zedd, Chair of the BCRP, stated that these funds are critical to

our county due to the high growth and economic needs of the area. The funds would also qualify us for matching state and federal funds. The proposed one-cent sales tax would remain in place for up to four years or until $120 million is generated, whichever comes first. The revenue would provide up to $30 million for traffic improvements on Lady’s Island between the Woods Memorial Bridge and the Chowan Creek Bridge. Another

$10 would go to installation and repair of sidewalks and multi-use pathways in 24 locations throughout the county to help provide safe walking routes to schools and improved access to residential communities, and $80 million would go to traffic improvements to the U.S. 278 corridor, including repairing or replacing existing spans of the bridges to Hilton Head Island and improvements between Moss Creek Drive and Squire Pope Road.

School board schedules weather make-up days The Beaufort County Board of Education has scheduled three weather make-up days and waived two more days that were missed when schools were closed during preparations for hurricanes Florence and Michael. A total of five instructional days were missed in September and October during hurricane preparations. State law requires districts to make up three days and gives local boards of education the au-

thority to waive up to three additional days. The three weather make-up days approved by the board are Wednesday, Nov. 21 (the day before Thanksgiving), and Jan. 7-8. Instead of classes resuming after winter break on Wednesday, Jan. 9, as previously scheduled, they will now resume on Monday, Jan. 7. District administration made the recommendation based on more than 6,000 responses to online surveys as well as input

A FAMILY AFFAIR

from an ad hoc calendar committee composed of school administrators and classroom teachers. Survey respondents generally favored a shorter winter break over extending the school year into June. District administration made two additional recommendations that were approved by the board: · Switching the half-day of instruction currently scheduled for Friday, Dec. 21, to Wednesday, Nov. 21 (the day

before Thanksgiving). Going to a full instructional day on Dec. 21 (the last day before winter break) will give high schools more time to administer first semester final exams. · Extending first semester two days into January ( Jan. 7-8) to give high schools more instructional time to meet state minimum requirements. First semester will now end on Tuesday, Jan. 8, and second semester will begin on Wednesday, Jan. 9.

STATE CHAMPS Beaufort Chamber of Commerce hosts Outstanding Military Family event.

If Halloween is your favorite holiday, you’re in luck, because there are loads of spooky activities planned in the Beaufort area leading up to All Hallows’ Eve. Here are some of the opportunities you’ll have to stockpile sugary snacks or get your frightful fix: • Children and their families are invited to attend Trunk or Treat from 5-7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 25, at Helena Place Senior Living in Port Royal. Dress to impress for Halloween and collect candy and other treats. Creepy cookies and petrifying punch will be served. Vote for your favorite Halloween costume and coordinating trunk. All who attend are guaranteed to have a boo-tiful time. The event is free and open to the public. In the event of inclement weather, the party will be moved inside. Helena Place is located at 1624 Paris Avenue in the historic Old Village in the Town of Port Royal (directly across the street from the Port Royal Post Office). Senior Citizens who would like to participate should call 843252-3001, or email rewing@enlivant.com. • Put on your costumes for treats, games, and spooky lighthouse climbs at the Hunting Island State Park Trunk or Treat event from 6-9 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 26. Children can enjoy trick or treating in a fun and safe environment in the lighthouse parking lot and then create a sand art masterpiece ($5 per person) or climb the historic Hunting Island Lighthouse after dark ($2 per person; must be 44 inches tall). • Flashback Gear, 802 Bay Street, will host Halloween ComicFest from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27. Halloween ComicFest is an annual event where participating local comic shops celebrate the season by giving away free comics to fans. This is a perfect opportunity to introduce kids, friends, and family to the many reasons why comics are great. • Kids of all ages are welcome and parents are encouraged to accompany them to Downtown Beaufort for the annual Downtown Trick-O-Treat Halloween Party from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27. Enjoy an afternoon of games, music, costume parades and candy. Parents and children are invited to come to Henry C. Chambers Waterfront park in costume and spend time with friends and neighbors in an old-fashion Trick-O-Treat celebration. Open and free to the public. • Party Port Royal style with scarecrows, beer, food, and fun for everyone at the fifth annual OktoPRfest from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27, on Paris Avenue. The event will feature Bikers against Bullies, the Classic Cars and Trucks of Beaufort, craft vendors, a stage with live entertainment, a Larew Dance Centre performance, Tux the Clown, face painting, a kids’ zone, food vendors, and as always, the OktoPRfest craft beer garden. Each food vendor will have at least one German-inspired meal for purchase. Live entertainment includes performances by Levon Stevens and Louise Spencer, The RK’s, and The Brewer Band. • The Lowcountry Master Gardeners are again celebrating Halloween with scarecrows. Perfect for harvest time, scarecrows have provided chemical-free crop protection since ancient times. But how creative can

from page A1 The issue piggybacks on a recent win for area conservationists with the county’s approval to purchase a portion of the Whitehall property on Lady’s Island for an approximately 10-acre public park. Beaufort Mayor Billy Keyserling is among those who supports the initiative. “If one studies the impact of this program, you will see huge benefits through land preservation, conservation and recreation while managing growth through private sector, Beaufort County Open Land Trust and governmental collaboration,” Keyserling said. “In the past this program has enjoyed massive public support, but there is much work to do.”

The Rural and Critical Lands Preservation Program was created in 1999 in response to rapid population and commercial growth throughout the county that began to endanger critical waterways and threaten the coastal ecosystem. Voters passed a $40 million bond referendum in 2002 to fund land purchases and approved three more referenda over the next 15 years. As of 2017, the program had completed 104 land protection projects preserving a total of 23,869 acres. Proponents say conserving rural and critical lands lead to increased property values, cost savings on stormwater fees, more tourism revenue, healthier citizens, more farms to produce locally-sourced food, and jobs, among other benefits. If passed, the current referendum is estimated to cost the average homeowner approximately $12 annually.

ON THE BALLOT Here is the verbiage of the referendum that will appear on the Nov. 6 ballot: “Shall Beaufort County, South Carolina, issue general obligation bonds, not to exceed $25 million, for the purpose of land preservation, by purchasing open land in Beaufort County in order to protect water quality, protect local waterways such as the Port Royal Sound, and local creeks and rivers such as the Okatie, Broad and May Rivers, wildlife areas, wetlands, natural lands, farmland, coastal areas, shellfish beds, and nursery areas for recreational and commercial fisheries, and beaches, and provide buffers for the Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort. All expenditures shall be subject to an annual independent audit and an amount not to exceed twenty percent (20%) of the funds created by this referendum may be used to improve existing and newly acquired open space and natural areas protected under this program.

• Ghostly spirits have taken over downtown Beaufort while the Exchange Club hosts its 26th annual Ghost Tours. Sign up now to take a carriage ride or walking tour through Beaufort’s Historic District while listening to haunting tales of the area. Tours last about an hour and will run in the evenings of Oct. 26-28, and 30. All proceeds benefit the Child Abuse Prevention Association (CAPA) of Beaufort County. Some of Beaufort’s oldest residents have shared stories from their childhood and the Exchange Club of Beaufort brings these stories to life each October. Costumed storytellers spellbind tour participants with the

ghostly happenings while traveling the Spanish moss-lined streets of downtown. The oldest ghost in America is said to live in “The Castle,” a 19th century renovated estate located on the river in downtown Beaufort. Beware, ghostly visions have been known to appear on past tours. Walking tour tickets are $12 for all ages and carriage tours are $12 for children ages 3-11 and $22 for adults. All children must be accompanied by an adult. A pet- and stroller-friendly walking tour leaves each night at 7 p.m. Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made online at www.capabeaufort. org or by calling 843-52-GHOST.

Beaufort Chamber of Commerce hosts Outstanding Military Family event The Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber's Military Affairs Committee, and the Tri-Command honored the Stacks family from Naval Hospital Beaufort at the Outstanding Military Family event hosted on Wednesday, Oct. 17. The event, sponsored by Atlantic Marine Corps Communities, recognizes families from Beaufort's Tri-Command for their exceptional service and community involvement. "We are thrilled to celebrate the Stacks family as our Naval Hospital Beaufort Outstanding Military Family," said Blakely Williams, President & CEO of the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce. "They have gone above and beyond in making a home for themselves here in Beaufort. They have made a lasting impression on so many people that they interact with daily." Cmdr. and Mrs. Stacks and their four children — Isaac, Elijah, Allie, and Ashton — actively volunteer with Communi-

ty Bible Church’s food bank ministry and meal delivery service for shut-ins; Cross Community Church’s community outreach projects; Military Ministries on Parris Island; Holy Trinity Classical Christian School; and numerous community

relations activities organized through the Naval Hospital Beaufort Chaplain's office. The Chamber's Military Affairs Committee will honor the next Outstanding Military Family from MCAS Beaufort in early 2019.

Red Cross notified for family of five after house fire Burton and MCAS Beaufort firefighters responded to a house fire Sunday, Oct. 21, in which the Red Cross was notified to assist a mother and four children whose home was damaged in the blaze. Just after 5:30 p.m. on Oct. 21, Burton and MCAS Beaufort firefighters responded to a reported house fire on Walter Drive. Callers said smoke and flames were coming from the home. Firefighters arrived and reported heat with almost zero visibility as they entered the residence. Crews searched

the home for trapped occupants and extinguished the fire, which was located in the kitchen. Firefighters found no one was inside the home. While the fire was quickly

brought under control, extinguishment was delayed due to the fire being able to burning through the ceiling and into the attic area, causing smoldering in the insulation.

The fire is under investigation. While fire damages were confined to the kitchen area, the home suffered heat and smoke damages throughout. Red Cross was notified to assist the family. Burton fire officials recommend families get in the habit of performing safety checks of their homes before leaving and going to bed; check to ensure stoves are turned off, candles blown out, extension cords unplugged, ashtrays emptied in metal containers, all doors in the home closed, and smoke detectors operational.

Association of Realtors releases September report

Some economic observers are pointing to 2018 as the final period in a long string of sentences touting several happy years of buyer demand and sales excitement for the housing industry. Although residential real estate should continue along a mostly positive line for the rest of the year, rising prices and interest rates coupled with salary stagnation and a generational trend toward home purchase delay or even disinterest could create an environment of declining sales. New Listings were up 69.4 percent to 227. Pending Sales increased 30.6 percent to 141. Inventory grew 27.6 percent to 1,142 units. Prices moved higher, as Median Sales Price was up 11.9 percent to $240,000. Days on Market decreased 12.2 percent to 79 days. Months Supply of Inventory was up 15.4 percent to 6.0 months, indicating that supply increased relative to demand. Tracking reputable news sources for housing market predictions makes good sense, as does observing trends based on meaningful statistics. The numbers continue to show pockets of unprecedented price heights combined with low days on market and an economic backdrop conducive to consistent demand.

BMH entrance closed for construction The entrance to Beaufort Memorial’s Collins Birthing Center and Surgical Center closed earlier this week for construction. Patients and visitors will need to use different entrances and exits during the four-month construction project. During construction, all surgical patients and visitors should enter through the Cochrane Heart Center and Main Lobby entrances. These entrances will open at 5 a.m. Patients and visitors will be guided to the surgical waiting area for registration. Laboring mothers will be asked to enter the Birthing Center through the side of the building during the day and through the emergency department after 9 p.m. Visitors to postpartum may use the Cochrane Heart Center entrance during the day, and the emergency department entrance after 9 p.m. Visitors will be checked in by security before entering the unit.

GET IN. GET OUT.

GET WELL.

The closure will make way for the construction of a new entrance with a large canopy to provide coverage for patients and visitors outside, and a remodeled and expanded waiting area inside. During this time the Birthing Center’s postpartum rooms also will be renovated in this final phase of the complete remodel of the center. Once open, the renovated birthing center will include eight labor and delivery rooms, 12 postpartum rooms and a five-patient antepartum unit. The visitor waiting area will nearly dou-

ble in size and each room will be furnished with new, comfortable recliners for visitors, among other things. The hospital’s first baby was delivered on May 1, 1944, nearly 75 years ago. Since that time tens of thousands of babies have been born at Beaufort Memorial, including many of the staff members who work there today. “We have a long, happy history of caring for mothers and babies and look forward to continuing that tradition for years to come,” said Collins Birthing Center Director Patti Valentini.

Community Corner and people of When and what should teens drive? St. Helena Island this Memorial Day! PROVIDED BY STATE FARM Cost aside, it's not a good idea for newly licensed drivers to immediately have their own cars. For one thing, you may be sending your teen a message that having a car and driving immediately is a right he or she is entitled to, rather than a privilege earned with responsible behavior and experience. It's a safer and wiser plan to require your teen to establish a safe driving record before allowing free access to the roadways. All new drivers are at the highest risk of getting into a crash during the first six months after receiving their license. And don't be in a rush to give your teen the privilege of independent driving in all conditions and situations right away — and not in his or her own vehicle. Though many adults look forward to their teens being able to help with driving responsibilities, it's worth waiting a few months more to keep your teen and your car safe. Why wait? • In their first year on the road, teens are almost 10 times more likely to be in a crash. • 20 percent of 11th-graders report being in a crash as a driver in the past year. • 25 percent of ninth-graders report being in a crash as a passenger in their lifetimes. • Crash risk increases incrementally with each mile per hour over the speed limit. • 16-year-old drivers with multiple teen passengers are twice as likely to be in a crash as alcohol-impaired drivers. • Crashes are more common among young drivers than any other age group. In the United States, one in four crash fatalities involves someone 16-24 years old, nearly twice as high as other age groups. What car is best? • Avoid cars that have a sporty, performance-type image. These vehicles can encourage young drivers to speed and test their performance. • SUVs and pickup trucks are also not the best choices for teenagers. While they may seem a safe choice because of their size and weight, they're actually more likely to roll over in a crash. A teen driver's high crash rate and an SUV's high rollover rate can be a deadly combination.

• Later-model mid- and full-size passenger cars are good choices since they offer sufficient weight, as well as updated safety features. Small cars offer less crash protection because of their size and weight. • Look for a car that has other air bags in addition to the standard driver and passenger airbags: Side and curtain air bags add an extra measure of crash protection. • Other safety features that might benefit your teen are Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), as well as intelligent seat belt reminder systems that remind drivers all occupants should wear seat belts. When you find a car that seems like a good choice, be sure to check safety ratings with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (nhtsa.gov) or the Steer Clear® (iihs.org) driver discount program.

ful dining experience. The sounds of sweet string instruments will fill the cool fall air as talented students from the Rabinowitz Music School play beautiful melodies along downtown streets. The First Friday event runs 5 to 8 p.m., and like all First Friday events, it’s free and family-friendly. The fun doesn’t end with First Friday.

Lowcountry Fair to feature loads of history and family fun

What could be more fun than an old-fashioned county fair, filled to the brim with historical flair? With the arrival of crisp fall air, the Santa Elena Foundation hosts the second annual Lowcountry Fair from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 3, at Cotton Hall Plantation. With Hargray Communications and several other sponsors, plans are in place for a unique community event with moderately-priced tickets and family ticket packages to allow visitors of all ages to enjoy special activities and events throughout the day at no extra cost. The fun, family-friendly atmosphere will showcase Marsh Tacky horses from around the region in obstacle courses, meet-and-greet areas and several racing heats. “At the end of the day, we will be awarding a grand champion of the horse races, but with a great community event like this – everyone wins,” said Megan Morris, executive director of the Santa Elena History Center. “This fall's Lowcountry Fair will be a stand-out event for the community to experience local heritage mixed in with plenty of good fun, food and friendship. This continues our efforts to highlight

Beaufort County’s unique history and collaborate with others in the region.” The events featuring the Marsh Tacky horse will be the perfect complement to other headline activities, like Living History. Across a 50-acre field, over 500 years of local history will be on display with historical re-enactors showing family life, living conditions, and times of war, sacrifice, and change. From 16th-century colonial times when Santa Elena was founded by the Spanish, through the American Revolution, the Civil War and Reconstruction Era and up to World War II — men, women and children will demonstrate history in period costume. They will mingle with spectators, tell fascinating stories of life in days gone by, fire their weaponry, walk in a parade and engage visitors in fun, educational activities. The most delicious local food concessions will be available for purchase throughout the day, including local oysters or barbecue, sweet treats, and locally-brewed beers and Spanish wines. Sip and see throughout the area with music playing and artisans display-

ing their original products from iron-welded signs to local honey and everything in between. Children will also enjoy the exotic petting zoo, pony rides, and other fun activities. They can meet friends at the National Park Service and participate in a Junior Ranger program, or head over to see the critters brought by Coastal Discovery Museum, who will have their own Marsh Tacky named Comet on site. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, follow a trail down to the plantation's original operating sugar mill, still in use today. Enjoy a walk back in time to see how sugar was made in the antebellum South, thanks to the plantation owners who have preserved this art for decades and now welcome us to their home. Tickets are available online (www.santa-elena.org/lowcountry-fair) and at the gate. Patron Level ($100), General Admission ($20), Children 7-17 ($5) Family Package (two Adults and 2+ Children): $50 Active Military Families (two adults and 2+ Children): $40

Inaugural history day for students Santa Elena History Center is putting the “field” in “field trip.” The second annual Lowcountry Fair with Historical Flair is opening a day early, exclusively for a student history day to allow local students the opportunity to experience the unique culture and heritage of South Carolina first hand on the grounds of Cotton Hall Plantation. Although the annual Lowcountry Fair and Marsh Tacky races are open to the general public from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 3, students and their teachers are invited to take a field trip to see living history re-enactments, weaponry demonstrations, and selected other fun and educational activities from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 2. The richness of our Spanish, French, English, Scottish and Native American history will be the focus of the day’s activities, along with exploring the plantation’s colonial sugar mill, walking through the petting zoo, and learning about Marsh Tacky horses.

As students meet and greet the gentle Marsh Tacky horses, they will learn about South Carolina's heritage horse, an activity led by the Carolina Marsh Tacky Association. Other organizations on display include the National Park Service with their Junior Ranger program; Coastal Discovery Museum with information about nature and their own Marsh Tacky, Comet; Lowcountry Raptors; Morris Center for Heritage; Historic Mitchelville Project; and more. An on-site picnic area is perfect for packing a lunch to enjoy on the plantation, and there is plenty of bus parking within the 50-acre field. Many local schools have already signed up, but the more the merrier. Check with your child's school to make sure he or she is taking part in this unique opportunity. Home school students are also welcome. For Friday and registered school groups only, a nominal $3 admission is charged per attendee for History Day admission.

What we know about this delicate place By Bill Rauch

The scientific community and the old-timers alike agree there’s seawater in Beaufort County in places there didn’t used to be. Scientists, special interests and the politicians who represent the special interests argue over not whether the seas are rising — everyone agrees they are — but why the seas are rising. This is the story of what is known about sea level rise in Beaufort County. There is nothing political about it … until the very end. Charleston, our neighbor to the north, now experiences “nuisance flooding” an average of 23 days a year. That is, according to a recent National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) study, up roughly four times from what it was 50 years ago. Charleston is talking about a possible future need to erect barriers to the sea, and the Bill Rauch city has already spent big money installing various check valves, pumps and water tunnels to help control the unwanted waters. How fast is the land sinking and how fast are the seas rising here? Both these factors are of course important and importantly, like the tides, they are not universal. The level of the ocean does not rise like a bathtub, oceanographers caution, and the land does not sink (what the scientific community calls “subsidence”) universally either, geologists say. The NOAA maintains water level monitoring stations at the entrance to Charleston Harbor to our north and at Fort Pulaski outside Savannah to our south. The data from those facilities shows sea level rise plus land subsidence and confirms what the old-timers know: that between 1901 and 2017 the seas are higher at Charleston by an average of 3.25 millimeters per year, or by 1.07 feet per 100 years. The data from Savannah is similar: 3.24 millimeters per year with a 100 year total of 1.06 feet. By way of comparison the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently

released a report that says the worldwide average for sea level rise is 1.7-1.8 millimeters per year. Accordingly, keeping in mind that the seas do not rise like a bathtub and the land does not subside universally, these and other data indicate that the long term rate of sea level rise in the Lowcountry is about twice the global average. Moreover, sea level rise here has quickened over the last decade, the Federal Government’s scientists say, and the quickening is expected to continue to increase here over the next 50 years. “A slowing of the Gulf Stream, continued land subsidence, and gravitational changes from loss of land ice, especially in Antarctica, all will contribute to higher than global sea level rise amounts in this [the Carolina Lowcountry] area,” NOAA’s Dr. William V. Sweet said last week. Sweet, a native of North Carolina, was the lead scientist for NOAA’s 2017 study, “Global and Regional Sea Level Rise Scenarios for the United States.” At Charleston, NOAA’s reports predict, the rate of increase (sea level rise plus subsidence) over the next 50 years will be two to three times the previous rate, or 1.25-1.5 feet more lost to the sea by 2065. With regular reports of Antarctic glaciers making unusual groaning sounds, and pictures of enormous icebergs freed from the polar ice cap, we are pretty well informed on the melting of the poles.

But little or nothing is said about subsidence. That’s because subsidence is more local, and subsidence rates are affected by less understood influences than the melting of polar ice caps, influences like aquifer depletion and other subterranean events. Some coastal areas are subsiding virtually not at all while the subsidence rate elsewhere is dramatic. Southwestern Louisiana is the most quickly subsiding area in the coastal U.S., according to U.S. Geological Survey maps. A recent Tulane University study found the land there is subsiding at twice the rate previously charted, or as much in some places as nearly half an inch per year. A recent Scientific American story attributed the dramatic subsidence increase there to offshore drilling. Louisiana, a poor state where Big Oil holds big sway, has now permitted more than 50,000 wells in its coastal zone. The pipes that bring the crude oil ashore are laid into man-made undersea trenches that stretch from the rigs to the shore. Some scientists say the trench-digging contributes to the erosion

of the land there. Others say the cavities left by the extracted oil result in undersea caveins, and that the collapses of these cavities contribute also to the unusual subsidence rate there. As can be easily imagined, the many and well-heeled proponents of Big Oil fiercely dispute any findings that lay increased subsidence rates at the feet of the oil companies. Nonetheless, in addition to the very real, costly and destructive risk of spills, offshore drilling probably also causes beach denourishment. Along the Florida to North Carolina seaboard the Carolina Lowcountry is already, in the words of Dr. Sweet, “in the subsidence bullseye” with subsidence rates of 1.3 millimeters per year. If we didn’t know it already, that tells us Beaufort County is a delicate place. And when the hurricanes come every millimeter counts. All of that is why I’m going to do something next month that I rarely do. I’m going to vote for Joe Cunningham. I trust him way more than I trust his opponent to keep the rigs out. Bill Rauch was the mayor of Beaufort from 1999-2008. Email Bill at TheRauchReport@ gmail.com.

This is the story of what is known about sea level rise in Beaufort County. There is nothing political about it … until the very end.

The Uninvited Guests

The community I live in has an outdoor pool that overlooks a large live oak tree. The tree looks so majestic with the Spanish Moss dripping from its limbs. Behind the tree is a creek that, depending on the tides, is either rushing water or scenic marshland. Because of this tree and its view, there are many couples who come to get married under the live oak. Despite these weddings, our community pool does not close. And those of us who go to the pool regularly and sit on the upper deck that overlooks that live oak tree have found ourselves, inadvertently, the uninvited guests to many weddings. So, we started to embrace it. “Where are you running off to?,” my husband asked on one of our recent fall Saturdays. “There’s a wedding at 5 and I want a good seat,” I said.

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 recently moved to St. Helena Island with her husband and two cocker spaniels. She enjoys boating, traveling and reading.

I had already called my girlfriend and told her I was wearing my black bathing suit in case it was a formal wedding. She assured me that she too was wearing a black and white bathing suit with a black floppy hat. She had toyed with the idea of wearing a fascinator but decided it might be too flamboyant considering our uninvited guest status. When I got to the upper deck, the crowd was already lining up their chairs turning

them away from the pool, towards the live oak. Now let me assure you this crowd is respectful. No loud talking or attention getting. Fortunately, my friend’s husband had already secured a table with chairs for us. I jumped in the pool for a quick swim with my friend and we discussed the upcoming festivities. By the time we got back to the deck, the official invited guests were being led to the

wooden chairs lined up looking out over the live oak and the marsh. It was a perfect evening with a blue sky, comfortable temperature and a nice breeze. We voyeurs all commented on the benefit of the dry grass too. As we sat there in our bathing suits and sunhats, drinking our iced tea, we admired the dresses on all the invited guests. Finally, it was time! The bridesmaids came first in their cranberry colored dresses. Then we noticed the father of the bride who wore a cranberry vest to match. “Nice touch,” we all agreed as the music started to play. But the bride was the center of attention in a beautiful white dress with a long veil. And as she walked down towards her future husband she turned her head and looked at all of us uninvited guests and smiled. It was a perfect wedding under the live oak tree.

Passionate for Appassimento Our wine region this week is the Venet in northeastern Italy. This area includes Friuli, Venezie and Trentino-Alto Adige. Parts of this area produce great quantities of white wines like Pinot Grigios, Soaves and Proseccos, and other parts produce red wines that include Bardolinos, Valpolicellas and Amarones. Veneto is the eighth-largest wine producing region in Italy, Celia Strong with over 220,000 acres of vines planted, but only about 35,000 of these grow grapes for DOC classified wines. Just over half of the region’s production is white wines. The region’s most popular reds — Bardolinos, Valpolicellas and Amarones — come from the western part of the region, near Lake Garda and the city of Verona. These three wines are basically a progression of the same grape varieties, grown in lesser to better soils and treated in fancier and more complicated ways as the grapes progress. The grapes are mainly Corvina, B4

blended with Rondinella and Molinara. Grapes grown on the valley floors make the lighter-bodied Bardolino wines. From vineyards going up the slopes, warmer sites and better drainage, the same grapes make Valpolicella. With some variations in production methods, Valpolicella wines become fuller and much more complex, and reach their peak levels in Amarones. We need to note that Amarone is an abbreviation of the actual name for this wine — Amarone della Valpolicella. As you go from Bardolinos to Valpolicellas to Amarones, the costs rise with the quality. The unique technique used to make the best Valpolicellas, including Amarone, is Appassimento. This technique dates back over 3,000 years, when it was used in many countries around the Mediterranean. Basically, appassimento is a drying process for the harvested grapes. Traditionally, large, round straw mats and baskets held the bunches in the sun for a fairly long time — from the September harvest through January. The grapes would dry and become wrinkled. With less liquid left in every

grape, the pulp became more and more intensely flavored, and the increased sugar to pulp ratio allowed for higher alcohol levels to support more flavors in the finished wine. Amarone grapes are always treated this way, hence the finished wine has for more flavors and textures, but its price rises significantly because there is far less juice to make into wine. In some other Valpolicella wines, versions of appassimento are used to enhance the finished wine. “Ripasso” is the most common and best-known of these methods. (This name means “repassed over.”) The Valpolicella grapes are crushed, and when they go into their fermentation vats, sediment from previous years’ Amarone barrels are added in. By fermenting with the sediment, the new Valpolicella wine picks up and retains extra flavors and textures. Of course, a ripasso costs more than a plain Valpolicella, but not as much as an Amarone. This technique is also used in wines from the same basic grape varieties but from outlying areas, not officially grown in the

vineyards classified for Valpolicellas. One example is Pasqua Passimento, our featured wine this week. Pasqua Family Vineyards was founded in 1925. They are producers of high-quality Veneto wines, though the founding brothers started as wine traders. They moved to the Verona area from Apulia, and within several years knew they wanted to make their own wines. The company is now run by the third generation of this family, with energy, enthusiasm and innovation. Their Passimento red wine is not DOC, but often it is mislabeled a baby Amarone. It is made from 40 percent Merlot, 30 percent Corvina and 30 percent Croatina. It is a bright ruby red, with deep, dark purple undertones. Its aromas and flavors include blackberries, blueberries, black cherries, chocolate, espresso and mocha powder, with a rich, juicy texture and long finish. An everyday wine that has been able to take advantage of history and knowledge. For $12.99. Enjoy. Celia Strong works at Bill’s Liquor & Fine Wines on Lady’s Island.
