Trivia Nights at Lefty’s, for Charity BY KAREN BOSSICK

W

hat is the largest instrument in an orchestra’s string section? What model of Chevrolet bombed in Puerto Rico because its name implied it would not go? If these kinds of brain teasers put your brain in overdrive, you might want to check out the Charity Trivia competitions at Lefty’s on Tuesday nights. Lefty’s Bar & Grill at 6th and Washington streets in Ketchum hosts Charity Trivia at 8 p.m. each Tuesday. Entry fee is $15 per team of up to six with a third of the entry fees going to local charities. Questions range from sports to pop culture to history, with prizes for the winners. Players can form their own teams or join a team at each night’s competition. Lefty’s owner Dave Hausmann said Lefty’s started offering Trivia Nights more than a year ago. It’s been a big hit with college-age students. Local lawyer Adam King and Dr. Gary Hoffman took over when the originator moved on. Hoffman calls it “a great alternative bar activity for Ketchum.” “We’re increasing the variety of questions to strike more balance for the young and older in the audience,” he added. By the way, the answers to the previous questions are bass violin and Nova (“no va” means “no go” in Spanish). Editor’s Note: According to Gary Hoffman, some of the charities that have benefited to date include The Advocates, Higher Ground, Silver Creek Preserve and The Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley. He also wants people to know that Lefty’s is a family-friendly establishment and youth are both welcomed and encouraged to attend. How are the charities chosen? Hoffman explained that participating teams throw names into a hat and the winning team draws from those entries at the end of the night. tws

BordertoBorder Jim Keller Skis Finland STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

I

t has long been billed as the longest ski event in the world—450 kilometers or 270 miles in seven days. And Hailey skier Jim Keller and his friends were painfully aware of that fact by the time they finished Finland’s “Border to Border Ski Trek,” otherwise known as the Rajalta Rajalle Hiihto,” or “border to border cross-country ski.” Keller joined 360 skiers from Finland, Russia, Sweden and Germany who took up the challenge in March. His comrades: Swan Valley’s Blaine “Blackie” Staun, who races in the Boulder Mountain Tour every year; Jonathan Klein, a former ranger with the Madison Ranger District; Kelly Sanders, a shopkeeper from West Yellowstone; and a Patagonia ski rep. The five needed only step out of their hotel in Helsinki and look at the boats stuck in the ice in Helsinki’s Baltic port to realize they had landed in a country that endures winter eight months out of the year. They started their tour in negative temperatures, which warmed up to— brrr—single digits and, finally, into the lower teens as the week progressed. “We hit minus 34.6 degrees Fahrenheit once—the coldest ever for this event,” said Keller. “Their windows had four panes— we could stash our beer in between the panes and it stayed very cold.” Keller and his friends started their tour in sight of Russian border guard towers and ended it at a Swedish border so obscure that they hardly knew they’d crossed the border. They skied an average 39 miles a day—46 miles on the longest day. Keller likens the trip to skiing in the Targhee National Forest outside Yellowstone National Park. They followed a single classic track groomed by snowmobile through forests of birch, Norway spruce and Scotch pine, usually next to utility lines and a snowmobile lane, rather than the skate ski lane they’re used to here. They skirted the Arctic Circle, passed a reindeer farm and summer cottages, and skied across frozen swamps and lakes. They skied along what’s called “Death’s Railway,” an abandoned route built during World War II by Germans who forced prisoners into hard labor. And they skied past towns with names like Taivalkoski, Sy-ote, Kuusamo, Pu-

dasjarvi, Keminmaa. “It was fairly flat yet it looked the same mile after mile after mile,” said Keller, who volunteers as a Nordic patrolman for the Blaine County Recreation District along the Harriman and Croy trails. “It was very monotonous. And I think they got their measurements confused—often they’d post a sign that said 2 kilometers to the lunch spot and we would ski forever to get there.” Each day the skiers bellied up to a handful of food stations along the route, some in yurts or historic farmhouses where massive fireplaces were designed so people could sleep on top of them.

Always, there was hot lingonberry juice, raisins and dill pickles. “No Power Bars. No hot chocolate. Occasionally, they had chunks of chocolate but they weren’t very good—they were kind of waxy. The pickles were there because they provided electrolytes. The lingonberry juice got old after seven days.” Lunch typically consisted of reindeer soup, perhaps some salmon chowder, bread or sweet rolls. Breakfast consisted of herring, Cream of Wheat, eggs, sausages, lunch meat and rolls. Dinners of salmon, reindeer

One Hundred Men Who Care Ready for Round Two BY KAREN BOSSICK

A

fter a successful first round, 100 Men Who Care is ready for round two. The new grassroots philanthropic organization will meet at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 14, at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden. There, each man who shows up will have a chance to nominate a non-profit organization to support. If his cause is one of three drawn from the bowl, he’ll have five minutes to enlist the other men to his cause. The winner takes all of the $100 checks each man writes out. “The first one in January was very successful,” said Marty Lyon, the Indian Creek resident who founded the organization. “We donated $1,600 to Ketchum Community Dinners. We hope we will have at least twice as many men at the next meet-

ing. I’m hoping we will have 30, 40, 50 people there this time around and that it’ll continue to grow.” Beth Grinstead, who heads up Ketchum Community Dinners, cried when she received word that the men had decided to make a donation on her behalf in January. Ketchum Community Dinners serves as many as 40 or 50 people at a time every Wednesday from 6 to 7 p.m. at the Church of the Big Wood, Warm Springs and Saddle roads in Ketchum. 100 Men Who Care is simply a group of men wanting to get together to make a difference in the community, said Lyon. “I’d invite anyone to contact me to participate in community building,” he said. For information, call Lyon at 788-7462 or e-mail marty@ lyonla.com tws

very time you turn around, your electronic devices are outdated, and there are new models beckoning. Donating used electronics for reuse seems worthy, but thrift stores must often turn away electronics donations because no one wants to buy them! Electronics contain valuable materials, including metals, plastics and glass, so what about recycling them? Throwing these items away would mean that potentially reusable materials are not only lost, but that toxic materials, such as lead and mercury, could end up in the soil and groundwater. Recycling electronics safeguards natural resources and saves energy and water spent mining and manufacturing from virgin materials. As an example, the EPA estimates that recycling 1 million laptops

he weather threatened. Gray, moisture-laden clouds alternated with a peekaboo sun, but that was the worst of it. After last year’s rain, an exasperated local said, ‘Why can’t it be sunny and 75 degrees for a change?’ By 10 a.m., a dozen or more people, led by Minna Casser, were busy at work making tree mosaic panels with little pieces of multi-colored glass and other tile. They’ll be at work all summer on a large mural project under the auspices of the Hailey Arts Commission. When finished, it’ll be on permanent exhibit at a yet to be determined site. Fred Burmester, from Stone Works, a tile specialist, is offering technical advice to the group. Tom Hellen was giving away Austrian pine and little-leaf Linden trees, donated by Webb’s, an event sponsor. Jeff Beacham was busy at work digging a hole about 5 feet wide and 10 inches deep for a Mancana ash. It was tough going through clay and rock, but with the help of an air compressor, he made reasonably quick work of it. He blasted the large root ball with the compressor to work the roots loose, then placed the tree and refilled the whole with Eco-Compost (also available from Webb’s). He explained that it was important that the hole be wider than deep because the roots don’t go down, they expand out. A tree’s roots are about as wide as its crown. Dozens of kids had designs painted on their cheeks. Mary Fauth of Girls On The Run ‘manned’ the table, reminding people about the upcoming May 18th 5K run at Heagle Park. Here’s their mission statement: “We envision a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential, free to boldly pursue her dreams.” This was definitely a kid-friendly event. The fire engine was popular as ever. The playground was busy, especially the enclosed trampoline tent. By noon, the festivities started, supplied by vocal groups from Wood River High School. R.L. Rowsey accompanied on electric piano, but basically this was a series of a capella performances. Lead singers Taylor Berntson and Gracie Eagan, from the group called Colla Voce,

sang some solo numbers, and the male and female ensembles handled the rest. All the while kids were trying various parts of the Mud Run obstacle course, like the rubber netting wall and the various log constructions and the sand pit, but few ventured onto the final part of the course, the mud pits. This consisted of four rectangular pools of water, some 2 1/2 feet deep, divided by three soft-soil berms that offered no foot support. Atop each berm was a string of flags contestants had to duck under. This was definitely the highlight of the day. About 150 people lined the course and there were about 75 contestants. Judging by the faces of the runners, this wasn’t easy. The kids, divided into boys and girls, were able to finish the three laps in under five minutes. By the third lap, those who trailed were muttering, ‘I’m too old for this.’ Heather Dawson ‘administered’ this event, and a good time was had by all. tws

This boy just made it through the dirtiest part of the course.

f fly-fishing can be considered almost an art form, then Wood River High School senior Tim Boyle must be considered an artist. That’s because he’s been fly-fishing almost as long as he could walk. “It’s the true passion in my life,” he said. “It’s also given me a lot of chances to travel to fish, as I’ve gone all over the state as well as the whole Rocky Mountain region. This summer I’ll be going to Oregon to work on a sport fishing boat going for tuna. I’ll be a deck hand and helping out in any way that I can.” Boyle was one of the last babies born at Moritz Community Hospital in Sun Valley and was fishing soon after. “My earliest memories are of sitting at the lake and trying to catch fish. I started with a fly rod and learned the hard way. I also learned how to tie all the flies and make them different sizes. It was a real learning experience and, of course, I was really frustrated at first, but it really taught me patience and I learned that you really have to work hard to be great at something.” Boyle can also remember his first fish at Magic Reservoir when he was four. “I was frustrated for so long that when I finally caught one it made it all worthwhile. My dad, of course, would help a lot on things like where to cast, but sometimes even he would get frustrated and tell me to figure it out on my own. I can also remember working as a kid on cutting firewood and sneaking down to the river

all the time. My favorite place to fish is Pyramid Lake in Nevada where you catch saltwater cutthroat trout and I once pulled out a 12-pounder, but my biggest catch was a 42-pound king salmon that we got off the coast of Oregon. It was a tremendous adrenaline rush fighting him with heavy fly gear and a 6-inch fly called a streamer. But that’s what I love most about fishing – it puts you outside on the water where you are out of your element. It’s so relaxing but also so intense at the same time.” Before attending college, Boyle has decided to attend a program offered by CSI in fish hatchery management that will then offer scholarships to a larger university. All of the classes are taught at an actual hatchery in Twin Falls and are all hands-on. “We’ll be learning things like how water temperature can affect the fish’s habitat and how to run a clean and efficient hatchery so the fish can survive.” Until then, this 3.75-gradepoint-average student will be finishing up his senior year. At Wood River, Boyle has been the recipient of the school’s citizenship award every year since sixth grade, which honors students that others look up to. “I just try to have a good attitude and to help people when I can. It’s a real honor that people look up to you and can count on you tws for anything.” Each week, Jonathan Kane will be profiling a local high-school student.

And she is one stepping stone closer to her dream of serving as an ambassador to further the prosperity of underdeveloped nations after being admitted to Yale University. Not bad, considering Yale received 29,610 applications from hopeful freshmen and the Admissions Office admitted just 1,991 of them. Brownlee, a basketball player, was the only student in the area to apply this year, said Lyman Drake, who does alumni admissions interviews for the university. Five Idahoans made the grade altogether. Typically, rural, small towns don’t nourish the sort of passionate intellectual curiosity, broad world awareness and competitive drive that Yale and other selective colleges look for, Drake said. “Sarah must be an extraordinary young woman and have a very supportive family,” he added. Brownlee said she applied to Yale after an educational adviser suggested that Yale’s global affairs program would fit her interests. “As I conducted more research, I found many other gems that made Yale attractive—Yale’s outstanding residential housing system, for instance. Hoping for the best, I submitted my application. It is hard to describe how excited I was when I received my acceptance letter from Yale—I am still ecstatic about the acceptance!” she said. Brownlee said she became interested in global affairs during a trip to Central Europe, which she followed up with a humanitarian trip to Fiji. “While traveling through Hungary, the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany, I was exposed to the social, cultural and political impacts that World War I and World War II had on the aforementioned areas,” she said. “Later, I stayed with a Fijian host family in the small, rural village of Nativi, where I helped install a plumbing system, build restroom facilities, teach first and second classers English, and paint the village’s local church building. “My experiences broadened my joy for cultural immersion, service, and international development,” she added. Brownlee’s father, Travis Brownlee, owns T&K Total Yard Care and Landscaping, which focuses on property management and landscaping. Her mother, Kathryn Brownlee is a paraprofessional in the Richfield schools. tws

Lester, Monkey Food—It’s All In A Field Trip For G’Day Students STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

S

teve Stewart jumped out from behind the meat counter at Albertsons as he spotted 11 tiny tykes tromping down the grocery aisle. “Who wants to pet my friend, Lester the Lobster?” he asked, a big grin on his face. Noting the kids’ hesitation, he grabbed a plastic bag and handed it to Lester, who promptly grabbed it with his big pincers. “Sometimes Lester holds the bag for me,” he said, as the children began warming up to petting the scaly guy. The children, all members of the G’Day Early Childhood Learning Community in Hailey, got to see Albertson’s through a different lens last week via a field trip. “They all like to go to the grocery store, and they like to play that they’re grocery shopping since we have shopping carts. They ride the bus here and they learn a little more about something that’s an everyday experience,” said Pati Meyer, who teaches at the preschool, along with owner and teacher Jill Metcalf. The children started the field trip off by presenting Albertsons employees with a giant card they’d made out of a grocery ad. “I love Albertsons because I get candy and raisins,” wrote 2-year-old Kyra. “What we run out of we just go get,” wrote 4-year-old Isabelle. “I like to ride in the big shopping cart because I like to help my mother with the groceries,” said 5-year-old Zoe. Hermina Arteaga and Martha Hollenhorst wowed the kids with their walk-in oven before letting them ice their own sugar cookies. Manuel Serrato showed

the sale signs he was making hot off the printer. Robert Graefe and Ronald Pick demonstrated how they check every item that’s unloaded off trucks to make sure it matches the order forms. And Kerry Bingham elicited a chorus of “Brrrs” when he let them stick their heads in the walk-in freezer, which registers a cool minus-11. “See this axe on the door?” he said. “That’s there in case someone accidentally gets locked in the deep freezer so they can hack their way out. It wouldn’t take long to freeze to death, would it?!” Angela Baron, Albertsons wine steward, explained how many of the store’s employees work through the night. “While you’re at home having wonderful dreams, they’re stocking shelves and making sure everything’s ready to go the next day when you come in,” she said. The produce department

stocks more than 300 items, said Mike Johnson. “Let’s see how smart you are: What’s the most popular fruit sold in America? I’ll give you a hint—monkey’s like it,” he said, eliciting a chorus of “Bananas!” Apples are probably the second most popular fruit, he added, while the most popular fruit in the world is mangoes. The kids sampled tiny cheese bites with even tinier goldfish crackers. Bridge Karlovich handed them vanilla steamers, courtesy of Starbucks. And they all got to take home a string cheese and a packet of vegetable or flower seeds. “Pati’s is the only group that comes in,” noted Bingham, the store’s customer service manager. “It surprises me because we love doing this for the kids. We like to educate the kids about nutrition and how to eat healthy. And we enroll them in our Healthy Eaters Club, giving

“Anyone can do that,” he added. “All you have to do is ask.” tws

movie review

You Can Run But You Can’t Hide BY JONATHAN KANE

T

he Sixties seem so long ago, in this age of Twitter and Facebook, that it’s almost hard to believe the period of radicalism that defined the Vietnam War years ever even existed. For director and star of the new movie The Company You Keep, Robert Redford, the story of that era seems to be more important now than ever and deserving of a film that sends us traveling back to a time when the nation stood on its last legs. Based on the novel by Neil Gordon, the center of the movie is the Weather Underground, who were the more radical and violent upshot of the Students for a Democratic Society and

who, in a botched bank robbery in Detroit, killed a security guard. The movie opens with the surrender of Susan Sarandon as an accomplice in that bank job 30 years later and the focus by a young beat reporter on a lawyer played by Redford whose identity didn’t exist before 1973. Here’s where the thriller kicks in, as Redford begins a nationwide search for his former lover, Julie Christie, who can confirm that he was not part of the botched bank job. Along the way he touches bases with a myriad of ex-radicals, all played by superb actors including Nick Nolte, Richard Jenkins and Chris Cooper. We are also treated to the film’s best moment when Sarandon offers a jailhouse interview

Jon rated this movie

to the young reporter, played by Shia LaBeouf, detailing the dreams of a young generation. It’s the best dramatic moment in a film filled with terrific actors. One quibble, though, is Redford himself who, at his age, is pushing the envelope quite a bit. It’s just a bit of vanity for him to have done the part himself and it can be distracting at times. But if you like a thriller with a lot of history, then this is just tws the ticket for you.

Wake Up Hailey The Hailey Chamber of Commerce presents Wake Up Hailey from 9 to 10 a.m. this Tuesday, May 14 at the Blaine County Annex Conference Room, (Hailey DMV).

Give Up Ten Years Later BY JAMIE CANFIELD, PROGRAM DIRECTOR FOR KSKI 103.7 FM

D

eath Cab For Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard has been a busy guy lately; he released his solo album “Former Lives� last year (a project that was eight years in the making), and then went to work reuniting with his partner from his side project, The Postal Service, Jimmy Tamborello, to prepare for a summer tour and the reissue of their lone release Give Up. This comes at a time when electro-pop is at its zenith; bands like Capital Cities, Leagues and a host of other bands are harvesting what The Postal Service had sown a decade ago. Not that The Postal Service was on the forefront of the electropop surge; they just happened to be one of the best (and best-selling) acts in the genre. Songs like

“We Will Become Silhouettes� and “Such Great Heights� have become staples for college radio and adventurous commercial stations. Now, for the doubledisc reissue of Give Up, The Postal Service has added another disc of remixes, two previously unreleased songs (“Turn Around� and “A Tattered Line Of String�), and covers by The Shins and Iron & Wine. The packaging on

the reissue is glorious; it comes in a quadruple slipcase with two booklets with photos of the band over the years, and lyrics and artwork from the singles. I come from the vinyl generation and miss the gatefolds of yesteryear; Give Up is almost as good—just smaller. As far as reissues go, Give Up is at the top of its class. tws

Souper Supper Goes Gourmet with Sun Valley Chef, Murcko STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

T

he young Hispanic woman sat back and smacked her lips, a look of contentment settling over her face as she polished off her last bite of beef tenderloin laced with a mushroom-garlic stuffing. “The cook they have tonight is definitely a professional,” she said. “He needs to come back here and work full time.” Indeed, the man serving up the Souper Supper at St. Charles Catholic Church in Hailey last week was none other than John Murcko, Sun Valley’s head chef. Not only was he a semi-finalist for the prestigious 2012 James Beard Foundation Awards, but he was named No. 1 chef in Utah in 2011 before moving to Sun Valley. Last Monday Murcko orchestrated the Souper Supper dinner on behalf of the Wood River Jewish Community and his wife Kelli, who had volunteered him. “I love doing volunteer things and I knew he would do it because it’s something we can do together as a family,” said Kelli Murcko. Together, they served up a four-course dinner worthy of dinner at the Sun Valley Lodge, starting with a roasted beet salad drizzled with champagne vinaigrette and a cucumber dill salad with red pepper that had been marinated in Murcko’s own special dill and sour cream vinaigrette. “We’re going to give the people out there the Sun Valley welcome,” Marty Lyon told the dozen people gathered to prepare, serve and wash the dishes. “Instead of just putting the food in front of their faces, we’ll say, ‘Would you like a salad tonight?’ ” Murcko showed Susan Green and Judith Smooke how to ladle beets and cucumber salad onto large salad bowls, topping them with a hot roll, just as he’d trained servers at Sun Valley’s remodeled Konditorei how to prepare eye-pleasing dishes a couple of months earlier. “It’s like watching the cooking station, the cooking channel on TV,” observed Lyon. While guys like Bob Goldstein and Richard Smooke readied the dishwashing stations, Jewish Community president Claudie Goldstein, Leslie Silva and Murcko’s children Melissa and Elias waltzed plates heaping with food out to the 30 or so diners. Eyes of out-of-work construction workers, senior citizens and even children got big as they saw plates heaped with melt-inyour-mouth tenderloin stuffed with wild mushrooms and garlic, a vegetable ragout and cheesy

Souper Supper diners started things off with a plate of beet salad, cucumber salad and a hot roll.

scalloped potatoes that had been donated by Sun Valley Company. “Are you kidding me?” enthused one woman, who said she’d been attending the twiceweekly Souper Suppers for a year. “This is gourmet all the way!” “We do have some very good cooks at these Souper Suppers. But we’ve never seen anything quite like this,” said another woman, who works as an aide for an elderly woman. Murcko’s children beamed as they refilled diners’ glasses with milk and apple juice before serving slices of blood-orange cheesecake and chocolate pistachio cheesecake topped with swirls of raspberry and vanilla sauce. “I want to be a chef like my dad,” said 10-year-old Melissa. “My dad loves what he does, and I’m going to love it, too.” Elias, 7, said it was “cool” to be able to help out the community. “I want to be a chef like my dad, too,” he added. “I started learning about cooking when I was 5 and I’m a real good cutter. I have gotten my first battle scar, but I’m still very good.”

hungry? Save the date Sun Valley’s Head Chef John Murcko and fellow James Beard nominee chef Gary Kucy of Hotel McCall will prepare a six-course dinner to celebrate the tenth anniversary of The Hunger Coalition on May 21. The dishes will feature farmto-table foods provided by local growers. The event, which starts at 6:30 p.m. at Trail Creek Cabin, is limited to 50 people. Guests will meet at the Sun Valley Inn and be taken by horsedrawn carriage to the cabin where they will have the opportunity to chat with the chefs, winemakers and farmers who donated their goods and services on behalf of the Hunger Coalition. Tickets are $300, available at EventBrite.com.

A Treat for Mom BY MARGOT VAN HORN

M

other’s Day is coming up and this is a perfect something to surprise her with. It’s a breeze to make, and delicious. Thanks go to NPR and having heard Nigella Lawson, fabulous Italian cook and author of cookbooks, talk about this recipe and how embarrassingly easy it was to make. Well, I love coffee-flavored goodies and I LOVE ice cream, so this recipe was just up my alley. I made it immediately and, sad to say, devoured it all in one sitting. So, just in case you don’t have this recipe, here it is. I haven’t priced this out; however, I do think that it is cheaper than buying a good coffee ice cream and certainly it is better tasting. I can’t wager how good it is for the waistline, though—sorry. No-Churn Coffee Ice Cream and Other Flavored Ice Creams-Makes almost 2 pints Ingredients: 2/3 C. SWEETENED CONDENSED milk 2 Tbsp. instant espresso powder (I couldn’t find this here so I bought instant espresso coffee, which I now keep in the freezer and mixed 2 Tbsp. of the granules with 2 tsp. boiling water) 2 Tbsp. of some sort of coffee liqueur (I bought one of those “airline” bottles of Kahlua) 1 ¼ C. HEAVY cream Two one-pint airtight containers Directions: Put the condensed milk in a bowl and stir in the espresso

powder or the substitute I’ve listed and the liqueur. In a separate bowl beat the cream until it reaches soft peaks. Fold the cream into the condensed milk mixture and pour into your airtight containers. Freeze for 6 hours at least, or overnight. Delicious and you can serve the coffee-flavored ice cream topped with melted chocolate. I’ve also swirled melted chocolate chips in the coffee-flavored ice cream before freezing. OK—now you want to make another flavor? Try making lemon ice cream by substituting 2 Tbsp. Crystal Light Natural Lemonade Drink Mix Powder and 2 Tbsp. lemon-flavored vodka. Same with orange-flavored no-churn ice cream. Use some kind of dry orange powder and some orange liqueur. It’s all good because I’ve made those flavors as well. I’ve even included lemon and orange zest in the mixture. So, once more, imagination works here. For easy access and printing of this and past recipes, visit Margot’s blog http://blog.tempinnkeeper.com. Call Margot for personal cooking help or hosting at 721-3551. Margot is a self-taught, enthusiastic and passionate cook. Having been an innkeeper for five years at her own inn, she accumulated a lot of good recipes, which she loves to share. tws

After the ride, participants can then indulge in burgers and beer on the Rotarun deck, while they regale each other with stories of cycling blood, sweat and tears. Rotarun board mem-

bers will provide information about Rotarun programs and how to get involved with the organization. This fundraiser for Rotarun Ski Area will be $20 per adult, and $5 per child (15 and under). Of course, cycling is not required – supporters can purchase a ticket for the dinner only. Season passes for the 2013/2014 ski season will also be on sale. The biking starts at the Rotarun parking lot at 4 p.m., with food service starting at 5:30 p.m., and introduction of board members at 6 p.m. Rotarun is located at 25 Rodeo Drive, just three miles west of Hailey via Croy Creek Road.

Staun was having back problems and Klein was ailing from sciatica he had developed during a two-month canoe trip across Canada. “It was never as scenic as skiing the Harriman Trail,� Keller said. “However, the physical challenge it presented, as well as the multi-nationality camaraderie it offers with the other participants, made it well worth tws doing.�

Keller and his friends hobnobbed with a Russian chemical engineer who had learned English from downloading Bruce Willis’ “Die Hard� movies and Clint Eastwood’s Westerns. There was a couple from the Canary Islands who were triathletes marking only their second time on skis. And there were Russians who were space engineers, computer programmers and doctors. “They were very well educated—we talked about Russian composers, literature. They were curious about what we thought of them. And one told us: ‘It drives us crazy you guys being able to buy AK47s, which we designed and can’t buy,’ � Keller related. Everyone in Keller’s group could barely walk by the time they stumbled into Sweden. Keller was skiing on a sprained ankle, the result of missing a step, nursing tendon-

in sauce and mushy vegetables were augmented by a 9 p.m. buffet of fruit, yogurt and sandwich fixings. Oh, and of course, there was Karhu Bear and Lapu beers, which Keller described as being the equivalent of Budweiser and Coors but with more flavor. “We easily doubled what we normally eat the first two days. Then we got tired of the food—I lost seven pounds by the end of the week,� said Keller. Accommodations ranged from hotels to hostels with bunk beds to community centers where they slept on the floor and used four-hole outhouses. What they thought was a refrigerator in one hotel was actually a place to dry their boots and clothes. Always, there was a sauna. Nightly briefings were always given in Finnish, German and English. And when they were over,

t was a nice day—sunny, in the high 50s—and the nonprofit display booths and tables were a little late in setting up. One participant told me “we’re on Ketchum time,� which is a little slower and relaxed than the rest of the world. The affair was lightly attended. Two of the early arrivals were the Senior Connection and Croy Canyon Ranch; the great gals of Nurture were there and agreed to set up between them. Nurture is an organization that educates lower-incomebracket families about how to eat and be healthy. These are the folks who, with a family of four, have to get by on about $160/month. They provide cooking classes and equipment, exercise programs, and also have a school education program to teach children about alternatives to chips, candy, soda and other junk foods. They also work with the American Culinary Federation’s Chefs in Schools program in Boise. This is important work. It dispels the myth that lowerincome Americans can’t afford nutritious foods. (www.nurtureyourfamily.com) Now I know where Albertsons vegetable waste goes. Winn’s Compost, on Ohio Gulch Road, right before the Transfer Station turn, has an assortment of topsoils and composts. It’s been so popular, especially with landscapers, that they’ve run out by late May, but they are gearing up for greater production. They brought the ever-popular Dolly the Sheep which, like all animals, was popular with kids. Another group that brought animals was Swiftsure Ranch. Little kids kept dragging their parents back to their chestnut horse and a white pony. The ranch does the remarkable and specialized work of ‘therapeutic riding.’ They provide equine-assisted activities and therapies, which encourage the physical, mental and emotional well-being of children, adults and vets with a wide variety of disabilities. They even have a lift to get you out of a wheelchair and onto the horse. To sit in the saddle and be in control of a 1500-pound animal helps strength, balance, coordination and builds confidence and self-esteem. The range of disabilities they can handle is amazing, as is the wonderful bonding between horse and human. Because of the generosity of donors, they don’t charge for services that usually cost $120/ hr.

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, To this day I don't understand men when it comes to tools. Take my grandfather, for instance. He had a tool for every job. When the battery died in my watch, he had a jeweler's screwdriver to replace it. When I needed to fix my front stoop, he had a cement mixer in his shed. And when I had to rotate my tires, he had an impact wrench just like the tire shops. So when he passed away, I was left with a garage and house full of tools. I kept a few and put the rest, like a house jack, up for sale at my yard sale. You can imagine my surprised when two guys started fighting over the house jack. How many people really need to lift their home? The same thing happened over some rusty screwdrivers. In all honesty, I thought most of it was junk. You can buy much nicer looking tools at any store. Why would anyone want an old hammer set or a rusty radial arm saw?

• • • Carry: If you're trying to understand men's obsession with tools, good luck. Even my wife has given up.

Fast Facts Tool Up

Duane “Cash” Holze & Todd “Carry” Holze 05/05/13 ©The Classified Guys®

Cash: Although the marketing departments of the big home improvement centers have sure figured it out! Carry: While it may seem odd to you that two guys would argue over a tool like a house jack, it's actually not that surprising. You can imagine that if you needed to move a house from its foundation, a house jack would prove to be very valuable. Cash: Old tools, even rusty ones, often preform that same valuable service. While you can buy most tools new at a retail store, new and shiny isn't necessarily better. In fact, some old tools are much more durable.

They were made from solid metal parts that just won't break. Many of today's tools are made from less expensive materials like plastic. Carry: Much like your grandfather, many people have an appreciation for these old tools. That's what makes them one of the hottest selling items at any garage sale. Even that old hammer set or rusty radial arm saw can be quite valuable to some. Cash: Although you may not fully understand men and their tools, there is one thing you can take from your experiences. The next time you see two men fighting over a set of tools at your garage sale, raise the price!

Open almost any toolbox and you're likely to see name brands such as Stanley, DeWalt, Makita, or Craftsman, to name a few. That's because these companies have been around for many decades. Frederick Stanley created Stanley tools in 1843 as a bolt and door hardware company. Raymond DeWalt started his tool company in 1922, perfecting the radial arm machine to provide more versatility for woodworkers. Makita was founded in 1915 as an electric motor sales company, and Sears launched its Craftsman brand in 1927.

Tool Time

Many people wish they could be great craftsmen. That's probably why home improvement shows like This Old House have made celebrities out of everyday repairmen. The show began in 1979, making host Bob Vila a household name. In 1989, Vila left the show because of arising conflicts with commercial endorsements. He started his own show, Bob Vila's Home Again, later renaming it Bob Villa. This Old House continues to aire with it’s lastest host Kevin O’Connor who took over in 2003. •

Reader Humor Answered Prayers

My church holds a fundraising yard sale every year. As the minister, I find it's a great way to meet with a part of the congregation that I don't often see on Sunday. One of the parishioners, Mary, brought her husband to the sale in hopes he would find something to buy. While he was browsing the tables, I took the opportunity to say hello. As we made small talk, I mentioned that I haven't seen him in church for several weeks. "I've been out playing golf," he told me rather honestly. As he saw my disappointment, he found a way to justify his choice. "But don't worry," he said. "My game is so bad, I pray every time I hit the ball." (Thanks to Kenneth P.)

510 thank you notes The Hailey Memorial Day Committee would like to thank all involved in organizing the great ArborFest event on 5/4/13! We had a great time again this year and hope to see you next year! Thank you! I would like to thank you for getting some good community information out there, including Kiwanis (it is kind of my priority since I am president this year) and also for the Dollar Store photo opening in Bellevue as I am also on the chamber here in Bellevue. These items were also submitted to the express however they chose not to print even one! Thank you for giving the south valley some excellent coverage!! Kim Baker, Kiwanis President Endless thanks to all the awardwinning WR High School students and faculty -- and also to those volunteers -- who made that recent “Nights At the Liberty” concert series such a success once again!! Think that was my 12th or 13th year attending those always-amazing concerts, and they never cease to be among my VERY FAVE music memories here in the Valley in any given year ... with “Make You Feel My Love,” “’Somebody To Love,” “Coffee,” “Don’t Stop Believing” and “Vienna” among my fave perfs of this year. You guys SERIOUSLY ROCK!!! :) Bellevue Chamber Board Member Show your appreciation! Say thanks with a FREE 20-word thank you note, right here. e-mail your ad to classifieds@theweeklysun.com.

more so her verrrry poignant/heartwrenching version of “Funny Valentine,” Candice Glover’s ode to Billie Holiday (“You Change”) and Kree “Kreedom” Harrison’s superb work on “See You Again” and also “Stormy Weather.” These four are easily among the VERY BEST female vocalists “A.I.” has discovered during its 12 seasons!!!!!! Watch some of the often genuinely poignant and heart-wrenching video footage of those seriously-injured (but incredibly courageous) Boston bomb-blast victims, and THEN see if you STILL want your “contribution” (s) to the Wood River Valley to be all about leaving shrapnel-filled “Drano/ ”bottle” bombs in East Fork, Elkhorn, etc.!! What makes YOU any less of a pathetic, self-important coward than the people who planned and executed those Boston bombings?!?
