Getting Youngsters Ready for Winter Sports STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

You never know what you’ll stumble into at the Bellevue Haunted Forest. STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

hey look benign enough as the sunlight streams through the golden aspen leaves. But just dare to walk the woods of Bellevue at night. The woods along the Big Wood River in Bellevue are fixing to get spooky as the Bellevue Haunted Forest emerges Tuesday and Wednesday, Oct. 29 and 30. Those who dare enter the world behind Mahoney’s Bar and Grill at 104 S. Main St. will stumble into a world of ghouls and goblins played by live actors. The Sun Valley Ballet will be adding to the ghoulishness this year, performing every half hour at the Elm Street gate starting at 6:30 p.m. and ending at 9 p.m. The annual event has raised about $10,000 over the years for the Friends of The Howard Preserve to maintain the natural park-like area. Tickets are $7.50, available at The Bead Shop, Splash & Dash, Mahoney’s and at the gate. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and close at 9:30 p.m. People may start their walk through the forest at any time. But, be forewarned: the forest turns scarier as the night darkens. tws

welve-year-old Katie Markthaler gingerly steadied herself as she stood on an inch-wide band stretched over bed mattresses. As she gained confidence, she put one foot forward, then the other, relying on her poles for an extra measure of assurance. “One step at a time,” 7-year-old Tatum Ware encouraged her. Markthaler worked her way to the middle of the line, finally losing her balance as the wiggle in the line became too much. “It was weird when I first did this because I’m used to balance beams that don’t move. This is harder to get used to.” It may be harder but it’s another step that will make Markthaler as comfortable

on skis as she is standing on terra firma in her stocking feet. Freestyle coach Andy Ware is betting that dozens of kids will show a big improvement on skis and snowboards this winter, thanks to the Air Barn that opened in the Sagewillow Barn in Elkhorn last year in a partnership with The Community School. Ware and other Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation coaches—Galen Webster, Josh Zuch, Ross Falcone and Jeremy Lato—have added thousands of dollars of ramps and other equipment to outfit the barn with tools for building agility, balance and confidence. Trampolines help the kids learn to be centered before graduating to back flips, swan jumps, seat drops and twists. There’s a 32-foot-wide wooden halfpipe and a 13-foot-tall ramp from which snow-

boarders skateboard into a pit filled with foam blocks. There are ladder ropes to hop through and a zigzagging PVC pipe contraption to hop over from side to side. And there’s the Fitwall—an apparatus designed by a rock climber that offers unique approaches to pull-ups, back rows, ab pulls, cowboy squats, ins and outs, ab hops and more. It’s a state-of-the-art style of exercise apparatus that exercises every muscle from the neck down. It’s especially good for kids who are rehabbing knees, said Ware. “We don’t need to bring in a Total Gym that weighs a hundred pounds—we can get so much more done on this. I also like it because it’s safe for young kids. There

inyl is the most inexpensive choice for kitchen and bathroom floors, but the worst choice from an environmental perspective. Vinyl flooring is a petrochemical-based product that produces highly toxic dioxin during manufacture and vinyl may also give off phthalates, chemicals that can cause damage to human and animal reproductive systems. Although we often refer to vinyl floors as “linoleum,” good old-fashioned linoleum contains no vinyl compounds. Linoleum is made from boiled linseed oil (from flax seeds) mixed with powdered cork, ground sawdust and pine resin, as well as minerals and pigments. Although linoleum is at least twice as expensive as vinyl, linoleum lasts 4-5 times as long—around 40 years! Linoleum’s only downside is the energy consumed in ship-

ping it from European factories. Another good choice for a “green” floor is cork. Cork flooring was originally made from wine-cork manufacturing scrap, but is now often made with harvested cork. Ensure that your cork flooring contains no urea formaldehyde preservatives and that wood backings are sustainably harvested (Forest Stewardship Council [FSC] certification). If installation requires adhesives, stains or sealants, ask about low- or zero-VOC options. VOCs (volatile organic compounds) can cause symptoms ranging from eye, nose and throat irritation to liver, kidney and central nervous system damage, and VOCs have also been linked to cancer.

Yard Debris

For a few days there it looked like we were going to go straight from summer to winter, but now we get to revel in the beauty of fall in Blaine County—and have time to everything we need to do before the snow flies! This time of year finds us doing clean up in the yard, and more often than not, tossing yard debris in the garbage. But wait! Blaine County and the Southern Idaho Solid Waste District have a Yard Debris Diversion Program you should be taking advantage of! Branches (less than 8 feet long and 18 inches in diameter), grass clippings, leaves, wooden pallets and clean scrap wood can all be delivered to the yard waste area of Ohio Gulch (located after the Scale house). Items are ground into compost, which can be purchased. For drop-off items, one load per household per week is free. After that, there is a $10-per-ton charge. Yard debris can also be collected in a dumpster and delivered to Ohio Gulch. For complete details on having a dumpster delivered and removed from your home or business, contact Clear Creek Disposal. This is just one more way to keep items away from your landfill— and create some great compost at the same time! For more ways to recycle in Blaine County, visit 5Brecycles.org. tws

Ad Campaign Touts Burning Quads BY KAREN BOSSICK

“Y

our lazy parts will hate us.” “Your legs will hate us.” Hey, the “us” they’re talking about is Sun Valley! Sun Valley Marketing Alliance is rolling out its new winter ad campaign. And it’s wrapped around the idea that skiers and snowboarders can rack up more vertical before lunch than most people pack into their entire ski vacation. By contrast, said Greg Randolph, legs love Colorado and Utah where they get plenty of rest waiting in long lift lines, riding slow chairlifts and skiing often-flatter terrain. The Sun Valley Marketing Alliance has come up with a number of other eye-catching slogans, as well. Among them: “Ibuprofen is not a food group”— the idea being that you’ll be chugging the pain pills down, what with all the skiing and

boarding you’re racking up. They didn’t forget Nordic skiing, either. For nine days in January and February, they say, Sun Valley will have the lowest resting heart rate on the planet as all those incredibly fit Nordic skiers meet in Sun Valley for the Sun Valley Nordic Festival. There’s just one problem with all these cute little phrases that get away from the trite advertising campaigns about beautiful powder and perfect runs that all ski resorts use: The Sun Valley Marketing Alliance is eyeballing its lowest marketing budget in 15 years, said president Arlene Schieven. With a budget for the 2013-14 fiscal year of $980,000, the alliance does not have any paid media advertising for next summer. The passage of the proposed 1 percent local option tax this November to support commercial air service would help, Schieven added. tws

One in five Idaho teens admits to taking a prescription drug without a doctor’s prescription at least once in their life. Because they are prescribed by a physician, these drugs are perceived as being safe, but in the wrong hands they can be lethal. The Idaho Office of Drug Policy in coordination with the Idaho Prescription Drug Abuse Prevention Workgroup (ODP) has launched a statewide multi-media campaign to educate Idahoans on the dangers of prescription drug abuse. “We are excited about bringing the National Family Partnership’s Lock Your Meds campaign to Blaine County,” said Michael David, executive director of the Blaine County Community Drug Coalition. “Prescription drug abuse is a growing problem in our state, our cities, our neighborhoods, and our schools. Due to easy availability we are witnessing a large increase in misuse, abuse and overdoses,” David added. The statewide campaign will launch during Rec Ribbon Week, Oct. 23-31. “In Blaine County we have disposal locations in the sheriff’s office in Hailey, and at the Ketchum Police Department in Ketchum. In conjunction with the campaign, the Drug Coalition will purchase an additional drug collection unit to be located in the Hailey police station.” According to David, “Please discard any unused or expired prescription or over-the-counter drugs (no liquids) to these locations Monday through Friday (or Thursday for the sheriff’s office location) between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.

ody Richmond, a Wood River High School senior carrying a 3.6 grade point average and a member of National Honor Society, just can’t get enough of the outdoors life. For Richmond, the Wood River Valley is his own personal playground and to hear him tell it he’d rather not have it any other way. “A lot of the kids talk about getting out of here and moving on to someplace bigger but I love it here. It’s just an awesome place to live.” Having been born at the old Hailey medical clinic, Richmond has spent his whole life here, as has his dad. “I’m real outdoorsy and try to do it all. I love to hunt, fish, golf, bike, hike and backpack. The only complaint I can come up with is when there isn’t a lot of snow. I really like the small numbers here and the ability to be alone in the wilderness. When you do run into people, like on the trails, they’re usually pretty nice.” Of all the seasons, winter is king for Richmond because he is able to partake in his real life’s passion—snowmobiling. “Seven years ago my dad bought a used sled and we rode it super hard that year. The next year we upgraded and started riding with all his friends. You learn in a pretty simple way – ‘here’s the sled and here’s how you drive it.’ It’s all pretty much trial and error and my dad’s friends are all forty-year-olds who are really good and you have to keep up with them.” Typically, Richmond spends as much time as possible riding – on the weekends, vacations and during any time off. “You pretty much always find me on a sled,” he said. “Last winter we explored Jackson Hole when we went to see a hill-climb competition. Pretty much they go up an incredibly steep hill and see who can go the fastest to the top. It’s totally crazy! One hundred guys motor up a straight wall, tearing up the hill, and half the guys total their sleds. We also rode the Jackson Hole area and it was pretty awesome.” On a typical day Richmond will travel between 40 and 70 miles in the backcountry. “Every day is totally different,” he said. His favorite place to ride? “There’s nowhere better than the Sawtooths and the Boulders. They are so vast and incredibly beautiful. The deeper you work in, the more you see. There are beautiful towers and streams everywhere. I still haven’t come close

to seeing all of it.” What was his most memorable day? “It was the day I triggered an avalanche and then later crashed and ended up jumping the sled. Thankfully nothing serious happened to me other than a sore back.” And why is he so passionate about sledding? “It’s the overall freedom that comes from it. It’s something that you really can’t explain. You can come to an area and there are no restrictions. You can go as fast as you want, although going slow through deep snow is also great, and you can go up any hill that you want. It’s just tws incredible.”

ommunity School eighth-graders are making potato salad with the potatoes they grew in their school garden. They’re readying an assortment of cheese from Ballard Farms—cheeses that traveled just 75 miles “from farm to arm.” And they’re baking up plenty of Sophie’s Oatmeal Cookies and Apple Crumble for people to try. After all, what would National Food Day be without food!? Samples of the eighth-graders’ hard work will be given to those who attend a free screening of “What’s On your Plate” at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the Community School Theatre in Sun Valley. Children attending the screening will be given Patrick/Polly the Potato plush toys. Attendees are invited to view The Community School’s experimental garden before the screening at 5 p.m. And everyone will receive electronic copies of the recipe booklet Food Day Cookbook with healthy, affordable recipes from such chefs as Mark Bittman, Emeril Lagasse and Nina Simonds. Food Day 2013 is a year-round nationwide movement toward more healthy, affordable and sustainable food.

Halloween Hoopla - After School, Thurs, Oct. 31!

40% OFF COURTESY Photo: COMMUNITY SCHOOL

The observance was created by the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest to bring people closer to a food system with “real food” that is produced with care for the environment and animals. Though free, attendees are asked to RSVP at http://www. foodday.org/16869/film_screening_of_what_s_on_your_ plate?recruiter_id=50074, 208-788-9786 or at nurtureyourfamily.org. The film, produced by Catherine Gund, whose aunt Theo Gund lives in Sun Valley, follows

two 11-year-old New York City kids as they learn the origin of the food they eat, how it’s cultivated, how it’s prepared and its effect on our health. Gund says her goal with “What’s On Your Plate?” is to address the shortcomings of our awareness about the relationships between food, its origins and our quality of life. The showing was organized by Nurture Idaho, which was founded by Kathryn Guylay a couple of years ago. tws

he turning point for Kathryn Guylay came in 2008 while she was volunteering at a food pantry in Chicago where she was living then. She looked at the quality of foodstuffs being handed out to families in need. “Why are most of the foods given away to families in need processed and nutritionally inferior?” she asked. “What are the effects of this sub-optimal diet, which is neither nourishing nor nurturing on the adults and kids of these families?” “Why do we assume that families in need don’t take the time to cook fresh, whole foods instead of processed foods?” she asked. In pondering those questions, she began focusing on how important it is to nurture our communities. She rallied like-minded friends to start the non-profit NURTURE, a non-profit organization which stands for Nutritional Upgrading Realized through Underwriting, Resources and Education. With the local food pantry, they began teaching entire families how to cook whole grains, beans, lentils, fresh fruits, vegetables and other whole foods that could optimize their nutrition. Then she brought the concept with her when she and her family moved to Sun Valley a few years ago. Nurture Idaho, as it has become known, started a couple of years ago offering nutrition education to the Community School, where Guylay’s own son and daughter attended. It expanded into Hemingway Elementary School last year and now has a presence in all the local elementary schools, teaching kids simple concepts about how good food makes our bodies run, just as gas makes cars run. As Nurture Idaho expanded, Guylay began teaching Healthy Slow-Cooker Cooking classes

to Hunger Coalition clients— something that was expanded to military veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) participating in a Higher Ground Wellness Camp this month. This winter, Nurture is teaming up with the new I Have a Dream Foundation, which promises post-secondary education to Woodside Elementary School students whose parents may not have the resources to send them to college. And it is joining hands with the City of Ketchum on a Let’s Move Ketchum campaign. Guylay says interest in what she is trying to do grew as British chef Jamie Oliver went to the airwaves trying to get communities and schools to use more whole foods. First Lady Michelle Obama’s focus on nutrition and exercise with her “Let’s Move!” initiative has helped, as well. “We’ve had some great exposure on a national level as part of the ever-growing movement around food and nutrition,” said Guylay, who has a Master’s degree in Business Administration and certification in Nutritional Counseling. “Recently, for instance, we were featured on Jamie Oliver’s newsletter, as well as The Edible Schoolyard

You Are Already The Answer By Vee Riley

“Each thought, each action in the sunlight of awareness, becomes sacred.” —Thich Nhat Hanh

tepping out on the terrace of Robin’s Restaurant in Cambria, Calif., an unforeseen event is about to take place. For years my children had been urging me to move to Idaho. My answer was always an emphatic NO! How could I leave the quaint little town of Cambria Pines-by-the-Sea with its shops and galleries, and most of all, the loving people? It was an ordinary Sunday morning. The trumpet vine overhead covered the old converted house with peachy pink flowers, enlivening my experience. I was seated within ear-shot of a family gathering. While enjoying the ocean breeze, absorbed in my own thoughts, I heard only two words coming through a stranger’s lips: SUN VALLEY. In that instant, my NO! became a YES! Without any hesitation, I knew I was returning to Idaho. After packing and saying goodbye to my dear friends, I

Growing and Giving STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

ne Hailey senior got more than she bargained for Saturday morning. She not only got her yard tidied up with winter setting in, but the team that raked and mowed her lawn figured out a way to put neglected treasures stacked up in her garage on Craigslist. “She has a garage full of stuff, including a grinder and cutter. We put it on Craigslist to see if we can’t get rid of some of the clutter and earn her a little money,” said Lon Zeman. About 40 adults and children tidied six homes Saturday morning as part of the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s third annual Giving and Growing campaign. The campaign is a mini version of the Paint the Town event in Boise, which helps seniors

and the disabled who don’t have the ability and resources to take care of their homes and yards the way they’d like to. To date, volunteers have assisted with more than 20 homes recommended by the Senior Connection. Workers from four landscaping companies helped spearhead this year’s efforts, assisting with pruning, weeding and mulching. “We received a two-page front-and-back letter from one woman about what it means to live in a community so long and have received this sort of help. It was so touching,” said Stephanie McCord, executive director of the Sawtooth Botanical Garden. “A lot of people don’t have family to assist them so this is very meaningful,” she added. “It’s what we should be doing for one another.” tws

Fishing R epoRt THE “WEEKLY” FISHING REPORT FOR OCT. 23 FROM PICABO ANGLER

he first round of dredging is complete on Silver Creek and so far so good! It looks as though the fish are responding well to the deeper water. In fact, I stood on the dredge last week and watched as large fish swam freely underneath it and dined on every morsel it kicked up. There was a regular bunch of fish benefiting from the activity the entire time. Turbidity measurements were so low they barely fell within the realm of bothering to measure. With the first round done, the little ancient dam at the back of Kilpatrick pond can now be replaced with something much more high tech, fish friendly and eco-friendly. More cool water will make it downstream next season than at any time in this angler’s life! Kudos to all the hard work and forward thinking from the Nature Conservancy and the Purdy family. Now the report! The fishing on Silver Creek is epic. Anglers are catching huge numbers of fish. The Mahogany Dun and the Fall Baetis are still hatching and spinning daily and to add to the fun the Midges have blown up the past few days adding another item to the menu, and one more fly to stock in the box. Don’t hesitate as the Midge is main winter fair on the Big Wood, the Big Lost and many other rivers. These fisheries should come back on line as soon as we get constant freezes and low daytime highs. The upland hunting activity remains strong, and now that duck season has begun it is official. It is fall!!! Ducks, Pheasants, Chukar, Deer, Elk, and Trout are all open to pursue, as well as many other species. For a sportsman is there a better time of the season? Probably not… If you heads for Silver Creek, be on the water around lunch and stay until dinner! The same can be said for the Lower Lost River. The fishing has been great over there, but be mentally prepared for some of the lowest flows we have ever seen below the Mackay dam. This means be stealthy, use long leaders and tippets and move about with purpose and caution. Enjoy the remarkable fall weather, Get outside every chance you get! Old man winter will be here soon enough!

financial planning

Options for Saving in Retirement BY Wendell Cayton

y father did not give me a lot of financial guidance when I was growing up, but the one thing he said that stuck with me was simple: “Save 10 percent of everything you earn.” Had I followed his advice, I might be off cruising the world! Today, even for retirees, his words continue to ring true. There is a great deal of merit to putting a little aside every month from retirement income sources. We are accustomed to saving from a paycheck through company-sponsored 401(k) plans, or, for the self-employed, Simplified Employee Pensions, while we are working. In retirement, the only regular paycheck we might see is the Social Security check. Therefore, I recommend that retirees set up their retirement

income to be paid directly to their bank on a regular basis for a regular amount. Call it a retiree’s paycheck. From this, set some aside, just like during your working days! The changing financial landscape for retirement dictates that we plan differently than our parents might have. First, we are living longer, creating a need for more money for retirement. To make my point, consider that the average male reaching retirement age of 65 has an average life expectancy of 17 more years and a 30 percent chance of reaching age 90, according to the Centers for Disease Control. This elongated lifespan simply points out the need to: 1) work longer; or 2) put more aside and spend less. Number 1 is not an option as age increases, but spending less is and, for most, should be. Strict, disci-

plined budgeting works, as does adopting a policy of saving from income for larger retirement outlays such as travel and gifts to the kids. What does not work is taking lump-sum withdrawals from income-producing retirement assets to fund expensive, quality-of-life expenditures or lump-sum requirements. This is called “burning down the walls to heat the house.” Slimmer investment returns today mean more capital is needed to produce income. Gone are the days of the 4 percent CD return or the 7 percent bond yield. Investors who need returns like those to make their plans work are forced to seek higher-risk investment alternatives. Higher returns do not come without a price. Greater volatility (prices may be down when the money is needed), lack of liquidity if a lump sum is needed, or simply

ve Evans and Patti Parsons and her Sun Valley Hallelujah Chorus set the stage with an exuberant soul-filled concert that drew a standing-room-only crowd to Our Lady of the Snows Catholic Church Tuesday night. And the jazz concerts that followed attracted more standing-room-only and turn-away crowds as out-of-towners and locals alike took advantage of a glorious fall weekend to turn out for the 24th annual Sun Valley Jazz Festival. A spokesperson said attendance was higher than it has been since the recession dampened attendance figures in 2009 and 2010. Attendees turned out to see popular acts like the Cajun band Tom Rigney and Flambeau. But they also filled every seat on the floor and in the bleachers of Sun Valley’s indoor ice rink to see a Broadway-type show from the Celebrate America Corporation in Logan, Utah, that featured songs commemorating the “Wizard of Oz,” baseball and other popular pastimes of the Glenn Miller era. Bill, Shelley & Westy—three Mammoth Lakes jazz camp instructors—treated their audiences to tuba farts, cheek drums and all-time favorite songs, such as Hoagy Carmichael’s “Get Your Tongue Out of My Mouth—I’m Kissing You Goodbye.” “We always do ‘Lola’ last so Shelley can go straightforth to a chiropractor,” Bill Dendle quipped as Shelley Burns contorted her body while performing “Whatever Lola Wants” from “Damn Yankees.” While Burns was doing some amazing contortions, others were doing lightning-paced banjo picking and artful trumpet blowing. Elkhorn residents Lynn and Sharon Bockemohle got a charge out of watching Jeff Barnhart accompany silent films on piano in the Sun Valley Opera House. “He didn’t even watch the movies ahead of time—he just made it up as he went along,” Sharon said. Yale University’s Whiffenpoofs amused crowds by poking fun at rival university Harvard—“the finest correctional institution in the Ivy League.” And even musicians had trouble keeping their eyes off the golden aspen and snow-capped mountains outside the large picture windows of River Run lodge and the Sun Valley Club. “I can’t believe how beautiful it is. The sun is out and the aspen are gorgeous and… I’m trying to imagine how it looks

with snow,” said Cornet Chop Suey’s Brian Casserly, who hails from St. Louis. Among the local attendees were Elkhorn residents Steve Gannon and his wife Susan Spelius Dunning, who recruited Pearl Django from the jazz festival for their Sun Valley Artist Series concerts last winter. “We love the jazz festival,” said Steve Gannon. Tom Springs of Colorado Springs echoed Gannon’s sentiments. “We’ve attended jazz festivals all over. We’ve been coming to this one since 1996 and this is the best,” he said. “The facilities, the atmosphere, the people, the bands—absolutely the best.”

Halloween Costumes – 2013 BY CHRIS MILLSPAUGH

es, it’s that time again to select your costume for this Halloween. Many of you will be inclined to opt for a national figure that made news this year, such as the whistleblower, Edward Snowden (horn-rimmed glasses, a whistle and an airplane ticket), or Miley Cyrus at the VMA dinner or, better yet, dress in pink and go as Miley Cyrus’s tongue. Then, there’s Walter White from “Breaking Bad” (lab coat with flat black hat and test tubes.) You could consider a zombie from “The Walking Dead.” There’s always Pope Francis and Anthony Wiener, or one of the Duck Dynasty boys. For those of you who want to go to the local Halloween party as a group, I would suggest the cast of “Game

of Thrones” or “Homeland” or “The Big Bang Theory.” Don’t forget about the possibilities of “Two and a Half Men” or the “NCIS” crew or fifty of you in various shades of grey. You could choose any of the above and get by but wouldn’t it be more original to attend a party as a local character, such as Ivan Swaner (curled white moustache, cowboy hat and a history book.) How about a road guard dressed in orange with a walkie-talkie and covered in dust. Or, the angry neighbor who hates loud music after 10 at night. A group of you could be sheep or an ore wagon or a firecracker and go as a local parade. In the group costume vein, what would be better that the Sun Valley City Council or the front desk librarians or The Hunger Coalition crew?

But by far the most popular costume this year would be “The Firefighter” in honor of those who saved our Valley last summer. Get a fire suit and a beaver and smear your face with soot and you’ll be loved by everyone at the local Halloween bash. People faced with no costume ideas could go in ordinary clothes with a sign that says, “Nudists on Strike.” This idea could save all of you a bunch of money. Speaking of that, if your name is Bill, get a few more guys named Bill and go as “A Bunch of Bills” — quite apropos for any of us in the Wood River Valley. I’ll see you at the party. I’ll be the guy in the bozo mask carrying a typewriter and a tin cup and saying: Nice talking to you.

un Valley resident Kirsten Paterson dismounted from her bicycle in front of Russ Lamb’s sculpture shed south of Bellevue and gazed around, examining Lamb’s life-sized bronze sculpture of an elk and fiberglass Labs. “This art tour is so much fun. I can’t believe it hasn’t been done before,” Paterson said. Paterson was one of hundreds of people who took part in a tour of 55 artist studios that stretched from Martha Andrea’s printing and collage studio in Bellevue Farms south of Bellevue to Will Caldwell’s log cabin studio out Warm Springs Road. The inaugural Wood River Valley Studio Tour was like a Parade of Homes with refreshments along the way—the difference being you were oogling art and sculpture instead of bathrooms the size of barns. And, you didn’t have to take your shoes off! Glenn Carter, who has sold many a barstool fashioned after animals to Rainforest Cafés across the United States, showed off a chair he was producing for a woman in Jackson Hole, Wyo. The legs have batteries implanted in them so that a tail will swish back and forth when someone sits on it. And Mark Sheehan weaved stories of how he got many of his forging tools—among them a machine that could be used to make wagon wheels that he found among weeds on land where a friend lived near The Valley Club north of Hailey. Jean Pierre Chesnel sold a Native American painting that was featured in last week’s Weekly Sun on Friday when the buyer got an early jump on the tour. Ginna Parsons Lagergren said she entertained art fans from Salt Lake City, Boise and Twin Falls—many of whom had come expressly for the tour—at the Hailey studio where she paints beloved pets into cherished landscapes. And Deb Bohrer said that more than 60 people had stopped by her home in Ketchum on Saturday to view her paintings and art using auto body parts, despite a weekend chock full of such events as the Sun Valley Jazz Festival and Crosstoberfest. When would be the best weekend to have the tour to get the most people in town, mused Lyn Stallard, whose Western

paintings have even graced the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering’s programs. Perhaps the weekend of the Sun Valley Wine Auction, she concluded, which attracts art lovers who could tour studios during the day and attend vintner dinners and the wine concert picnic at night. Mixed-media artist Steven Houts said that one of the beauties of the tour was that it forced him to organize his studio. And watercolor and oil artist Beth Magee said it gave her the opportunity to create a beautiful oil painting of aspen in between tour-goers. “I love the tour because it lets me stay home and paint,” said the Bellevue nurse. “Otherwise, my husband and I would proba-

B. Restaurant Shifts to Adjust to Sun Valley Tastes

he white tablecloths are gone. And the dinner tab is lower. After a year in John Beriker the valley, John Beriker has learned a thing or two about the unique tastes and habits of Sun Valley-area restaurants. And he and his brother Timur have changed things around at B. Restaurant and Bar to reflect that. “We got rid of the white tablecloths to strive for a more casual atmosphere to appeal to families, as well as romantic couples,” he said. “And we reduced the price of our entrees from $34 to $26 to make sure that nothing on our menu is over $26. “It isn’t that we wanted to be expensive,” he added. “But the items we carried were expensive. Chilean sea bass, for instance, costs $24 a pound. We decided we could offer more expensive things like that as specials and offer regular menu items from $12 to $26.” As someone who has worked in fine restaurants in such places as Singapore, Sydney and San Diego, Beriker was used to a certain same dynamic, year-round. Here at his restaurant in the heart of Ketchum, however, he has had to learn to work with the seasons. He’s found, for instance, that cold weather drives locals into the restaurant where they can cozy up to the fireplace and eat comfort food. People here particularly seem to want Asian foods, he says. And, he adds, people have been eating more, including a couple appetizers and desserts with their meals, as the improving economy allows them to loosen the strings on their pocketbooks. B. Restaurant plans to move the bar out of the center of the main dining room into the back room to enhance the dining experience. Beriker also has changed up his appetizer and entrée menus to include sugar cane skewers with teriyaki chicken and a spicy peanut sauce; spicy tofu potstickers seared and served in a saki/mirin broth; cream cheese wontons with a tamarind chili sauce; black currant scallops salad; Korean marinated ribeye with brandy ricestick noodles; smoked salmon pizza with crème frâiche; seared ahi tuna with mushrooms and coriander-cilantro buerre blanc; an 8-ounce filet mignon; and grilled salmon with duck confit and raspberry buerre blanc. Still on the menu are old favorites like his mother’s signature Swedish meatballs and Kung Pao for regulars who insist on their Kung Pao fix. Beriker plans to change the menu often to keep the spirit of adventure in eating for his customers and to satisfy his own need to constantly be experimenting with new dishes. And he plans to roll out a special menu for the Christmas holidays, as well, featuring such items as cranberry relish and lobster carpaccio. “One thing people don’t realize is that whatever the customer asks us to do, we will do,” Beriker added. “Even if it means running to Atkinsons’ for the ingredients. You’ve just got to ask for it.” tws

A Bite at Velocio BY MARGOT VAN HORN

Velocio, northwest corner Sun Valley Road and Walnut Avenue, 601 East Sun Valley Road, Ketchum, The Shops at The Colonnade • velociosunvalley.com • 208-928-7825 • Open 7 days a week from 7am to 9pm • Libations: Intelligentsia Coffee $1.75 to $4.50; 5 Mountain Teas $3; BuckSnort Root Beer Floats $5.75; Beer on Tap $5 & up (16 oz.), Beer Can or Bottle $2 & up, Wine and Champagne (Glass or Bottle) $8 & up • Vicolo Pizza, Sandwiches, Nibbles, Salads, Charcuterie, Villa Dolce Gelatos, Assorted Pastries and Cookies $3.75 & up

n the middle of May this late spring, a wonderful thing happened to the inside of The Colonnade’s northwest corner space: Velocio appeared. Like magic, this great location was transformed into a very contemporary-styled but customer-friendly eatery that featured all of the delights mentioned above. It reminds me of entering into a bit of northern Italian space—something you might find in Milan. But the name is French, for the name Velocio comes directly from Monsieur Paul de Vivie whose pen name in the late 1800s and early 1900s was Velocio. He was the publisher of Le Cycliste (The Cyclist) and creator of the derailleur; hence, the theme and name of our present Velocio. de Vivie devised a seven-point code for the wise cyclist which, when you are at Velocio and you gaze upward, is featured on the rhythmic ceiling beams. Our Velocio was the brainchild of Jack Bariteau and Stephanie Olson, who feel strongly that the future of small start-up businesses will be that of entrepreneurial enterprises comprised of community-oriented investors and hardworking, dedicated operators. That is exactly what Velocio represents, now fully funded by a mixture of “locals” and “part-timers” alike. Stephanie Olson, the founder and owner of Penelope’s Café that formerly resided in The Galleria building, is in charge of the day-to-day operations, while Jack Bariteau focuses on the overall thrust of Velocio’s continuing success. I personally feel that Velocio has the best coffee in town. Intelligentsia, their supplier,

secures their coffee from small, independent growers around the world. And what makes the provision of Intelligentsia so interesting for us is that, as the seasons change, so does the coffee Velocio receives, thereby making the drinking of Velocio’s coffee always a singular one. Along with Intelligentsia coffees are Velocio’s offerings of their excellent 5 Mountain teas—another very unique taste for us in Ketchum. Coffee and tea can be purchased packaged for your own home or business use and soon on Velocio’s website. Well, now that I’ve mentioned those two offerings, I need to tell you that the foods offered by Velocio are not only varied but also delicious. I had their lambfilled crepes ($6.25) that were just delicious. But then, let us not forget dessert: wonderful patisseries and gelato (my favorite) from Villa Dolce in San Francisco. Oh-so-many flavors from which to choose and I love the colorful containers they put the scoops in. You can even purchase a larger amount that you can take home in a perfect store-toyour-freezer container. This is a spot where you can dine inside at the community or individual table, outside on one of their comfy couches or chairs, or even at the bar. And, speaking about the bar, don’t forget to visit Velocio for cocktail hour to sample some of their delectable wines or beers. Jack says that they now have many regulars for that. Lastly, I was surprised to have been told that you can reserve Velocio for a private party or event. Don’t forget that option for the forthcoming larger get-togethers you may be planning for the holidays. So, come have a bit of coffee or a glass of wine with me at Velocio and just in case you can’t find me, be sure to tell Stephanie or one of their wonderful wait staff that Margot and The Weekly Sun sent you. This once-monthly column features our wonderful Valley restaurants to which we can easily stroll—sometimes with the help of a bus or car ride—and is, therefore, called The Walking Gourmet. I hope that it will be a helpful guide for would-be diners as well for all of our fine local eateries. tws

n Friday October 11, the world lost a loving soul and one of its greatest artists with the passing David Dean McGary. Dave died at his home in Paradise Valley, AZ, with the two most important people in his life by his side: Molly McGary, his beloved wife of 18 years, and their 16-year-old daughter Bronwyn. He was 55 years old. An artist of international renown, Dave McGary was above all else a devoted husband and father. His love for his wife Molly and their daughter Bronwyn knew no bounds, and he spared nothing in letting them know that they were his life’s treasures. Many years ago the McGary family discovered Sun Valley and Ketchum and soon made it their second home. The Sun Valley area was a special place fore the McGarys because of its extraordinary beauty and the memories it evoked for Dave of growing up on his father’s ranch in Cody, Wyoming. Over the past several years, the family began to spend more and more time in Sun Valley, with plans to move here on a full-time basis. In Idaho Dave enjoyed the family’s passion for fly-fishing. He was able to share his love for vintage cars with a core group of like-minded friends, and took pleasure in restoring rare preWorld War Two automobiles. The McGarys were woven into the Sun Valley/Ketchum community through their many friendships, their membership in the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood, and the contribution they made to the arts community though their support of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts. As an artist, Dave McGary has been at the center of the Western Art world for the past three decades. A sculptor of extraordinary talent, McGary’s career began at the age of 16 when he received a grant from Wyoming artist Harry Jackson to study bronze foundry techniques in Italy. During his two-and-a-half years in Italy, the young McGary learned the art of casting from the finest foundry workers in the world, craftsmen whose ancestors had cast the sculptures that grace some of Italy’s greatest cathedrals. “There Are No Limits” was the motto that McGary hung in his studio later in his career, challenging him to sculpt without the concern for the casting process. His understanding of bronze casting was second to none.

After returning to the United States, Dave made his home in Sante Fe, New Mexico, where he found his calling in depicting Native Americans in bronze sculpture. The relationships he forged with Native American students in Sante Fe eventually lead to opportunities for the artist to meet with tribal historians and learn the stories of the tribal families and their ancestors. The Native American community embraced McGary, and called him a “Spiritual Messenger” because he brought the pride, bravery and sacred awareness of each tribe to life in his work. It was also Dave’s gentle spirit and his respect for everyone he met that endeared him to so many in the Native communities across the United States and Canada. The artist was a very private and humble person who let his work speak for itself, but his fame was wide and his accomplishments many. He received many honors throughout his career and his sculptures are in private and public collections throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. But to McGary, the close friendships he developed with many of the people he met through his work were more important than the accolades. The communities Dave McGary called home include Cody, WY, where he was born on April 18, 1958; Durango, CO; Sante Fe, NM; and Ruidoso, NM, the location of his foundry and finishing studio. He also had close ties to the province of Quebec, and to Montreal in particular as a result of his “Emergence of the Chief” project for Montreal’s Concordia University. Friends there have honored Dave by creating a special Fine Arts scholarship at Concordia that will bear his name. A Celebration of Dave McGary’s life will be held on October 27th at 4:30 p.m. at the JW Marriott Camelback Inn in Paradise Valley, AZ. The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, those wishing to honor Dave instead make a contribution to The Washakie Foundation. Donations may be sent to the Chief Washakie Foundation, P.O. Box 901, Fort Washakie, Wyoming 82514.

movie review

Terror at Sea By Jonathan Kane

Jon rated this movie

f you are looking for an edgeof-your-seat action thriller that is also one of the best movies of the year, look no further than the excellent new movie Captain Phillips. It doesn’t hurt that the lead is also played by Tom Hanks in one of the finest efforts of his storied career. Hanks may be Hollywood’s alpha dog and, as such, has first pick at the best projects. But the list of Hollywood stars that have flamed out with this privilege is too numerous to count. Hanks, though, has the magic touch in his choices and here his taste is right on the money again. But the true success of the film lies at the feet of its terrific director and co-screenwriter, Paul Greengrass. Best known for his direction of the second and third Bourne films, he also helmed the vastly underrated thriller, United 93 – still the best film made about 9/11. What he has crafted here is a lean, mean, fightin’ machine that feels like it plays for half of its 2-hour,

15-minute running time. It’s the antithesis of big-budget action thrillers in that it is as thought provoking as exciting and there is not a minute wasted in the telling of this true story. In 2009 Somali pirates captured a U.S. cargo ship en route from Oman to Kenya and carrying in its hold relief supplies for Africa. It was the first American ship hijacked in 200 years and became international front-page news. The ship was captained by Richard Phillips and the movie is based on his memoir. The story follows the capture by the pirates, led by a brilliant newcomer actor named Barkhad Abdi, and the abduction of Phillips in a lifeboat as they seek to reap millions in a reward. Of course, we know how the story ends, but no matter – don’t miss this one. tws

My Fair Lady - a Loverly Spectacle A STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

t was just plain loverly, it was. St. Thomas Playhouse paraded plenty of “warm faces, warm ’ands and warm feet” across the stage this past weekend as it presented the familiar Broadway musical, “My Fair Lady.” Melodie Taylor-Mauldin won a thumbs-up from English native Diana Fassino for her hardlearned Cockney accent befitting Eliza Doolittle, a disheveled flower girl. Andrew Alburger presented a perfectly stuffy portrayal of the snobby linguistic expert Henry Higgins who bets he can transform Eliza into a proper lady simply by teaching her proper English. Wood River choir director Max Stimac got plenty of applause for his reprisal of Eliza’s father, the dustman. Director R.L. Rowsey got a walk-on role as a former phonetics student of Higgins who fancies himself impossible to be duped when it comes to identifying the origin of someone’s speech pattern. And the entire cast of children and adults did a nice job of bringing what was at one time Broadway’s longest running play to life. The set was minimalist—a

raised square floor on the stage. But it worked, as actors sat on it, danced on it and pontificated on it. The costume selection was maximalist, the Ascot race outfits in various shades of black, white and grey alone making the production worth seeing. “It was really quite a lovely production,” said Fassino. tws

coustic music has made a big comeback over the years, and The Avett Brothers have been at the forefront of that movement. Their first album came out eleven years ago, and six studio albums and three live releases later, The Avett Brothers are back with their second album in a year. Magpie and the Dandelion came from the recording sessions from their last album, The Carpenter, but these songs are hardly fodder from the cutting room floor; they show a band that is growing and changing. Magpie and the Dandelion is a collection of songs that move them ever so slightly away from the old-time music that has made them popular with acoustic music lovers. Producer Rick Rubin has brought the Southern rock out of The Avetts, and yes, they can rock— there’s electric guitars (and even electric cello) scattered sparingly throughout the entire album. Comparisons can be made to the work that Rubin did with Johnny Cash, getting him to cover songs by Nine Inch Nails, Soundgarden and U2, bringing a rock perspective to someone who was, up until then, primarily a country artist. The songs on the new album are Avett standards, some plaintive and quiet, others exuberant and punchy, but all carry the Brothers signature down-homey country sound with a little studio oomph from Rubin’s production. As a side note: once a standard instrument in the instrumental lineup, the banjo takes a backseat to the acoustic (and electric) guitar, which is distressing because everything sounds better with a banjo. tws

Dozens of youngsters on the Ski Education Foundation’s development team for alpine, snowboard, freestyle and even Nordic skiing spent July and August dropping in on the miniramp and flying through the air like the hawks that trolled the air thermals outside for mice. And dozens more have joined the scene this fall—a few dozen youngsters got an orientation this past week. “There are plenty of places in here to get hurt,” Ware cautioned the kids after demonstrating a lateral movement back and forth on one ramp. “That’s why you never do these without a coach.

With the help of Idaho Mountain Builders’ Joe Marks and others, it became a reality. The Red Bull competition team gave the facility an enthusiastic thumbs-up when it filmed in Sun Valley early last winter. And the Air Barn has given the kids a place to fine-tune their skills when there’s no snow outside. Before, there was no summer

dryland for devo or prep teams. The traveling team had to go to water ramps in Park City. Now, kids have a leg up when it comes to getting a better vision of what’s required on the snow. Trampolines, for instance, are all about air awareness— knowing where you are in the air. Even alpine skiers can benefit as they learn to focus on what’s off in the distance, which they must do when racing gates. “What we have here is awesome,” said Ware. “It creates so much energy. And I think it gives our athletes the impetus to push the limits on what can be done on skis and snowboards.” tws

Crosstoberfest Included Something for Everyone - Even for Kids Below Age 6

PHOTOS (Clockwise from Right) A couple dozen youngsters below age 6 competed in Saturday’s Crosstoberfest held at Cutters Park in Hailey. A number of racers, including Desiree Hepworth and Jessica Bender, carried bikes through a sand pit. Competitors carried bicycles up a section of steps in one area of the race.

A dozen women competed in Crosstoberfest—their numbers down a bit because of a bike race taking place in Boise. “The race had a little bit of everything, from sharp corners to curves. You had to stay focused, slow down through some sections and just think: Stay on the bike. Stay on the bike,” said Ketchum racer Jena Greaser, who won. PhotoS: KAREN BOSSICK/SUN

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, Snowbirds. That's what we call them down south. When the weather turns cold up north, people pack up their RV's and head south. Then our classified section fills up with ads of people selling their motor homes and upgrading. This year I am seriously considering buying one for our family vacations while the selection is good. With three teenage kids, I'll take anything that makes camping easier. When buying a car, I usually look for something with low or mostly highway miles, but an RV seems more complex. It has propane appliances, air conditioners and generators, not to mention the countless people who have used the toilet and shower. There's probably no way I can learn all the ins and outs before I buy one. Are there any shortcut methods for buying a used RV?

• • •

Carry: You're probably not the

only one hoping an RV will make your camping trips easier. Your kids may appreciate not having to set up the tent! Cash: Much like buying any vehicle, RV's have a broad selection of makes, models and options. While there is no substitute for learning all the "ins and outs"

Fast Facts Tool Time

before buying anything new or used, there are some simple ways to find a quality RV. Carry: The first thing you need to do is narrow down your choices. What size RV do you need? How many beds should it have? What layout is best suited for your family? Asking yourself those questions may help you narrow your search. Cash: RV's can certainly be complex since they include electrical systems for lighting and pumps, propane systems for cooking and refrigeration, as well as all the normal components of a car, like the engine and frame. Regardless of your knowledge level, it is important to check all of those items and make sure they

work properly. Carry: However, to minimize potential problems, try to buy from an original owner and look for a newer model that has seen less mileage. In most cases, original owners take good care of their vehicles both mechanically and cosmetically. Also, since it seems like a concern of yours, you'll know how many people have used the amenities inside. Cash: Regardless of the model you choose, spend some time with the seller. Most RV owners are proud of their vehicles and more than happy to show you the entire unit and its functions. Carry: Just remember to take time and try everything out, even the bathroom!

If you're new to the world of RVs, then take the advice of longtime travelers. They suggest there are three items you should always keep on board your vehicle: a small can of lubricating oil, plumber's putty and a roll of duct tape. The lubricating oil is handy for common squeaks that arise like those pesky door hinges. The plumber's putty helps hold things down on countertops like vases or drink holders. And duct tape can solve just about anything else from leaks in a roof to holding things in place.

Comfort Inn

A recent study of the travel and tourism industry found that traveling by RV was the least expensive type of vacationing. Even considering the high gas prices, RV vacations cost significantly less than traveling by car, commercial airline or cruise ship. In fact, traveling by car, staying in hotels and eating in restaurants cost, on average, 36% more than an equivalent vacation in an RV. The results were similar regardless of trip duration, distance or region of the country. •

•

Reader Humor What a Waste

As a police officer I have to respond to all kinds of calls. Just the other day my dispatcher sent me to see a couple who claimed someone stole from their RV. I arrived at the scene and met with the husband. As we stood next to a puddle by the gas tank, he calmly explained that someone siphoned 25 gallons from their tank during the night. "They were in such a hurry," he said, "they even left the hose hanging out." Looking it over I explained, "It's probably some kids playing a practical joke." "Well the joke is on them," he laughed. "They accidentally siphoned the waste tank." (Thanks to Officer Oliver H.)
