They’ll also be with her at the Sun Valley Center Arts and Crafts Festival Aug 8-10.

They’re beat when they get home,” said Friedlander. Friedlander started exploring art later in life. After graduating from the University of Toronto, she became a “Betty Bright” in the home service department of a company similar to Intermountain Gas. She later researched weightloss strategies—strategies similar to those that Weight Watchers later adopted. In 1975 she became a psychotherapist at the Foundation for Religion and Mental Health while her husband Woody Friedlander worked as a chemical engineer for Union Carbide before hanging out his consulting shingle. Fourteen years ago, after retiring to Sun Valley, Friedlander took a watercolor class from Hailey illustrator Kim Howard, even going so far as to take a watercolor/journaling trip in France. She turned to the millennia-old medium of printmaking three years later after she became intrigued by

Harper, 109 jane’s artifacts Years Young arts / / crafts / / papers / / office / / party STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

lbert Einstein had just introduced the theory of relativity, laying the foundations for quantum physics in 1905—the year Chrystal Harper was born. The Bloody Sunday massacre had triggered the Russian Revolution that would eventually depose Tsar Nicholas II. Theodore Roosevelt had begun his first full term as President of the United States. The first 110 acres in what would become downtown Las Vegas were auctioned off. The Canadian provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan were established. Franz Lehar’s “The Merry Widow” premiered. And the Wright Brothers’ third airplane stayed in the air for a whopping 39 minutes. The Bellevue woman will cele-

Crystal Harper shows off the birthday card she received from a Boston hospital that included her in a study of centenarians without Alzheimer’s disease. Harper shares her birth year with Maria Von Trapp, Ayn Rand, Christian Dior, John O’Hara, Henry Fonda, Jean Paul Sartre, Dag Hammarskjold, Greta Garbo and Howard Hughes. brate 109 birthdays on Saturday. “I just wake up every morning, have breakfast—always a cup of coffee, never anything else. And I guess that’s it,” she giggles, explaining how her heart keeps ticking. Harper was born on a ranch near Stanton Crossing that her father had settled after moving to Idaho from Illinois in 1887. The house she was born in still stands. Born a Uhrig, she had an “idyllic” childhood in which she built playhouses in shoulder-high sagebrush, turned sagebrush into Christmas trees and played crack the whip, swinging her brothers and sisters while skating at a nearby pond. Her family only went to Bellevue a couple times a year—it took three to four hours one way by horse and buggy. During winter she crossed the river on her way to school in Gannett in a sleigh pulled by her sister on horseback. Thinking for a moment, her eyes light up and she raises one finger as if a light bulb has gone on: “I used to ride a horse but one day it threw me and I never rode anymore. I also cooked stewed onions and potatoes for the farmers.” At 19 Chrystal married Ed Harper. “I got married in the courthouse,” she says, raising her finger again. “He said, ‘Yes,’ and I said, ‘Yes,’ and they said, ‘You’re married right now.’ And that was it.” The couple moved to Long Beach, Calif., in 1927 where they started a dry cleaning business. Harper escaped injury in the 1933 Long Beach earthquake, which killed 120 people, by standing in the doorway—the strongest place in the house.

“I watched a brick jut out of the wall and pop back in,” she said. When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, Ed went to work for Douglas Aircraft and Chrystal became an Air Force warden, patrolling the streets to make sure everyone had their lights out. They moved back to the Wood River Valley in 1943, when “zoot-suiters” moved into the Los Angeles area bringing with them their Mafia-like ways. Ed worked for Sun Valley’s maintenance department and Chrystal washed laundry at The Christiania Motor Lodge—a job she maintained until she was 88. For about 30 years Harper lived in a cabin on Bellevue’s Main Street with no plumbing. The house had been the first café in Bellevue. Today, she lives next door to that house with the assistance of Anna Brown. The house contains cupboards she bought from Sears and put together herself. It contains a woodstove she baked bread on well into the 1970s until she moved an electric stove next to it. A Yorkshire terrier named Morrison, a stuffed bunny and a plethora of cat pictures keep her company. “When I met her in 1974 she had two dogs and nine cats—people dumped their cats here knowing that she would take care of them,” says Harper’s friend, Sharon Schrock. “She wouldn’t hesitate to tell people if they were abusing their animals.” Until a couple years ago Harper mowed her lawn and joined friends and relatives caring for the delphiniums, nasturtiums, snapdragons, marigolds and peonies that grow in her yard. Today, she still revels in them, taking advantage of warm summer days to sit on the porch the Boy Scouts built for her. And she loves to entertain

Last year researchers from the New England Centenarian Study interviewed her as part of its study of centenarians who don’t have Alzheimer’s disease. Harper passed with flying colors, reciting her birth date, her parents’ names and counting backwards from 20. “She rolled through it just like that!” Schrock says, snapping her fingers. Despite her intact memory, it’s difficult to get Harper to reflect upon momentous occasions in her lifetime. “I’ve got a lot of years to cover. And they were just the old days, anyway,” she says. But pressed, she says, she’ll never forget seeing her nephews go off to war during World War II. “But they came back,” she adds.

ransformative is the word I use to describe my recent experience with a Higher Ground Sun Valley female veterans and supporters camp. After nearly 30 years as a volunteer with adaptive sports organizations, I was a fortunate invitee—as a supporter to my own veteran—to a camp at Middle Fork Lodge within the Frank Church River-ofNo-Return Wilderness.

The veterans came from various branches of the U.S. Armed Services. All were survivors of post-traumatic stress disorder, military sexual trauma and/or traumatic brain injury. I gained a brand new appreciation of recreation as restorative therapy and recovery. Many veterans’ wounds are unseen and largely unacknowledged by the American public and government. This is true even of the government agencies that place these brave volunteers in positions that make it difficult for them to deal with the life that most of us know, love and take very much for granted. The camp exposed veterans and their supporters to recreational and therapeutic endeavors mostly new to them. The activities were designed to challenge, inspire, expose and make vulnerable the participants so they could aspire to new heights of existence in mind, body and experience. Each found a new passion: fly-fishing, archery, horsemanship, and so on. The joy and sense of accomplishment was palpable. Higher Ground will help find ways for each individual to pursue her passion in or near her hometown. Separation from military service is an overlooked challenge for veterans; their service “unit” is the group that shares common goals and objectives. Tameika Prothero, a veteran of the 1st Armor Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, who traveled from Miami, Fla., said of her newfound love of the Idaho outdoors and Higher Ground experience, “It gave me hope and a new unit I can call family.” My education and professional experience has centered on recreation and management of the outdoor resources, including wild and scenic rivers and wilderness. I have witnessed the transformative power of outdoor recreation on the mental and emotional health of identifiable populations, including youth, elderly, people with disabilities, and other underserved and marginalized groups. My recent experience took that knowledge to a level I did not anticipate. At a final shared meal, one veteran said: “I want to thank all of my fellow participants and their supports and the staff at Higher Ground. Thank you for taking better care of us than our own government does. And thank you for showing us how to better care for ourselves.”

Before Wood River, Morell attended Hemingway Elementary and Wood River Middle School. Born in the Wood River Valley,

Morell has lived her whole life out East Fork camyon. “It’s really been awesome growing up here,” she said. “There are so many outdoor activities, like hiking and biking. It’s also great because it’s not that crowded here and everyone pretty much knows each other. I’d rather be in a small place than in the city. Sometimes it can get a little repetitive but it’s been a great place to grow up.” Her favorite outdoor activity is running. “I normally run from three to seven miles out East Fork or Chocolate Gulch. It really helps to clear my head—to get out and do something.” Morell also has glowing things to say about Wood River High School. “I think it’s a great place and special because the teachers really care about you. I also have a lot of great friends. Of all the subjects my favorite is math, mainly because it has always come easy to me. I don’t have to interpret things—I just have to solve the problem.” Her freshman and sophomore years Morell was a member of the student union, planning dances and other school activities. Her sophomore and junior years she was a part of the environmental club. “I got involved because I care about the environment and what was happening to it. One of the projects we accomplished was to put in recycling bins in all the parks and I’m really proud of that.” The last year she has been a part of Amnesty International to help promote awareness of human rights around the world. “We’ve done a lot of things—had bake sales, wrote letters for prisoners and helped out at the Family of Woman Film Festival. It’s really opened my mind to a lot of things and problems in other parts of the world, like child soldiers and women’s rights. I’m becoming a more aware person and that’s fulfilling in and of itself.” tws

Zinc Offers Comfort Food, Chic Meeting Rooms STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

etchum’s newest restaurant provides comfort food with a twist, as well as a new venue for business meetings, receptions, rehearsal dinners and private parties. Zinc restaurant occupies the former CavaCava and CIRO restaurant sites at 230 Walnut Avenue, in Ketchum. Open evenings, it features such dishes as barbequed ribs, grilled beef with green peppercorn butter, trout with mustard seed vinaigrette, local beef burger with caramelized onions, wood oven mushroom flatbread, mussels and lamb shoulder pot pie. The restaurant features fried chicken with smashed potatoes on Thursdays, Fish Fry Friday, homemade sausages on Saturday and Pot Roast Sunday. Dessert includes trifle pudding. “It’s Sego food simplified,” said Taite Pearson, a James Beard-nominated chef who presided over the stove at Sego restaurant in Ketchum. Zinc features six beers on tap. And it will soon feature 20 wines on tap, ranging in birthplace from France and Italy to Argentina and the Napa Valley.

Zinc in the Walnut Avenue Mall is Ketchum’s newest restaurant.

“For the first time in all the years I’ve lived here, Ketchum has a place for meetings that doesn’t involve a church. People can broadcast the content on their iPhones on a 10-foot screen and our kitchen can cater the door,” said Chip Fisher, who is financing the new endeavor. Fisher said he settled on the name to reflect Ketchum’s mining heritage after going through the periodic table. The decor—one of sleek contemporary ambience merged with the raw industrial look of corrugated tin wrapped around the bar—also reflects that past. Fisher said on Friday that he was buoyed by the reactions of diners during the first week. “Over half have come back twice,” he said. “I’m waiting for the doors to blow down as people find out about it.”

SUMMER SNOW PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK Wood River Valley residents were surprised last week with snow a few days before the start of summer. It quickly melted, however, leaving behind “snow” piled up by cottonwood seeds in Bellevue’s Howard Preserve and elsewhere. Unlike real snow, however, the cottonwood seeds are highly flammable and extremely bothersome to many people with allergies.

have to make lists every day so that I can accomplish my chores and duties. At the end of the day, I go through the list and cross off the items I have done and then add the undone items to the next day. Today, I discovered that with the add-ons, I have 256 things I must do today! Sad, isn’t it? For that reason, I decided to try and get ahead for the summer by listing exactly all the activities I’d like to do. Here’s hoping you’ll do exactly the same. Here we go: •Call up all the people that you haven’t talked to in years and tell them exactly why you haven’t called. •Set all your clocks ahead exactly one year. •Write all your creditors and tell them exactly what a nice day you’re having and wish them well. •Count all your children in an exact manner. •Count all your change exactly and convert the coins into two-dollar bills. •Shop at a local store you have never been to before and buy something with exact change. •Rotate your credit cards and pay exactly one card only. •Contemplate quitting your job for exactly one hour first thing every morning, and then go to work refreshed! •Tell your neighbor’s dog exactly what he means to you. •Divide your hardest chores exactly into two parts and don’t do the last ones. •Decide exactly what you really hate to do and apply for an Idaho state grant to make your nightmares disappear. When you’re turned down, you can tell everyone the state wouldn’t let you do it. •Contact a wild animal and tell them exactly why they make you nervous. •Approach the best-looking person in your local watering hole and tell them exactly why you can’t ask them out for a date. •Don’t watch the television for exactly eleven-and-a-half hours on Thursdays. •And, finally, avoid using the word “exactly” for the rest of the day. Nice talking to exactly you.

he goats used to clear a large field of weeds in northwest Hailey became a neighborhood photo-op to some and a headache for the rest of the nearby residents with gardens and yards to protect. We didn’t trust the untended goats at all. Once they clear an area, they get antsy because they need to keep munching, like all ungulates. They stood in a dusty lot surrounded by, but kept from, lush green growth. Nature abhors a vacuum, and something had to give – the electric fence. A pregnant goat got bumped into the fence, got entangled, and her desperate thrashing about loosened the fence. We disconnected the leads to the battery and freed her, but then had to stand guard to prevent a breach. They got out at another spot before the herders arrived and restored order. The goats were clever. They had a leader who probed the perimeter defenses and found a way to get his nose under the fence. An accomplice quickly did the same at the other end, and the rest of the herd could follow as the two held up the fence. Not bad. When they’re not eating, they start to roughhouse with each other, and look to get out. Finally, a herder and a dog stayed behind permanent-

ly to keep an eye on them. I left a message (Saturday) on the BCRD phone, but they couldn’t reply until Monday. Technically, the Blaine County Recreation District has nothing to do with the goats, but they know who to call. This renting out of goats is a big business now that operates all over the West and in Europe. Spokesman Ray Holes was surprised by our troubles. No one had mentioned anything to him. He said they worked in tougher terrain than this, and the breaches

shouldn’t have happened. He concluded it was a result of ‘a failure to communicate.’ I recall that old chestnut from the ’60s. A lot of problems, from marital woes to international political turmoil (like WW I), result from that oversight. (If we didn’t negotiate with ‘terrorists,’ we would never have gotten Bowe back.) Tuesday, June 17, was nippy. There were snowflakes in the higher elevations. During early-morning REM sleep, I had a vivid, Technicolor dream, laughing at a

snow-graced Hailey. I woke, looked out the window, and wet snow covered every blade and flower. It was Friday, the 13th, and a full moon. Most of our snow comes like a thief in the night, as temperatures cool and precipitation can occur. By 7 a.m., the snow melted as fast as it fell. The poetic moments were few; the garden simply looked like a wet dog, soggy and drooping. Here in the Habitat and in a separate ornamental garden the perennials shrug off these surprises. A lot of blooms could have been hurt if there was a freeze, but the plants would soldier on. As long as the temperature stayed around 32 degrees, the young vegetables wouldn’t be hurt. This wasn’t a hard frost. It used to be that we adhered to the adage that we shouldn’t plant before the snow melted off Della View. These days, that can be at the end of February. People get antsy, like the goats, say goodbye to winter and want to dig in the dirt. Not so fast. You can dig, you can seed, but you can’t plant. Even if you plant after Memorial Day, you need either row covers or a Plan B to combat a killer frost that can come as late as June 21st, as it did a few years ago. At this altitude, frost is never far. tws

Training Day STORY BY RYLEE BROOKE SMITH

woke up this morning with that pit in my stomach I get on the first day of school. I realized today was the first day of my summer job. I knew it was normal to feel anxious but I was excited too. I had landed a job with Southern Idaho Biological Control, otherwise known as the Bug Crew. I would be working all summer in beautiful Blaine County using bugs to kill noxious weeds. Today is the start of this new adventure and I didn’t know what to expect as I traveled to Gooding to meet with the BLM, Forest Service, and County Weed Agencies to learn all about bio-control and how bugs are a safe, sustainable, environmentally -friendly way to rid our state of noxious weed species. My one comfort was knowing at least one member of my summer crew, my friend KayLee Hendrix. As I sat at the table with my new crew members I was soon chatting with Carmen Leslie, Giovanna Leslie, Chandler Tew, and Kaden Tew.

T H E W E E K LY S U N •

Dwight Scarborough of the Forest Service taught us about the life cycles of bugs and Joey Milan of the BLM explained the predator/prey relationship between our bug friends and the noxious weeds we would be measuring, counting, and cataloging throughout the summer. Later we went out in the field and practiced the skills taught in the classroom. Eric McHan, our crew supervisor, explained how to use the GPS data logger to collect coordinates and data that would be uploaded to the BLM, Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and county weed agencies at the end of the summer. As the day came to a close I felt much better about what my summer would be like. As the anxiety left it was replaced with a desire to do my part in keeping our state beautiful and weed free. As much as I want to be affective in fighting noxious weeds

he Smith Optics Ride Sun Valley Bike Festival isn’t waiting for the last day for a fiery climax. Sparks will be flying—literally—as this year’s festival kicks off with the SheepTown Drag Race— head-to-head racing with bicyclists dragging flaming logs chained behind their bikes.

Movie Review

22 Jump Street Cops R Us Rating:

BY JONATHAN KANE

n the funny new film 22 Jump Street, the sequel to the wildly successful 2012 hit 21 Jump Street, the audience is totally in on the laughs. The first one had the irresistible teaming of Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as late-twenties’ cops unbelievably going undercover at a high school to bust a drug ring. It was very loosely based on the TV show that brought us Johnny Depp (who made an unbilled appearance in the film). What should Hollywood do? Of course, churn out a sequel. But, in this case, the joke is on Hollywood as the movie is a laugh-out-loud slap in its face. When Nick Offerman tells the undercover duo that this time they are going to do the exact same thing that they did in the first one—only bigger— he’s just reciting the industry’s mantra for creativity. In perhaps the film’s funniest moment—the after credits—Hollywood’s penchant for sequels is deconstructed beautifully. So this time the oldsters are going to college. Once again the film is directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and is written by Michael Bacall, Oren Uziel and Rodney Rothman with a great musical score from Mark Mothersbaugh (Devo). As before, their objective is to bust a drug ring and, once again, Ice Cube as their sergeant gives excellent support. This time the story really centers on the two leads’ cliché bromance. Tatum bonds with the school’s star quarterback while Hill is left staking out hilariously bad poetry slams. Something is amiss in the relationship and with the hackneyed Hollywood formula. Hill in these scenes plays the rejected lover to perfection with his sad puppy-dog eyes. But have no fear— there is a reunion. The big question remains if the franchise will churn out a 23 Jump Street? tws

Unique Pavilion Takes Root At Garden STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

rchitect Jolyon Sawrey gazed at the medieval Renaissance tent-like gazebo that has taken root in the center of the Sawtooth Botanical Garden. “This is one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life,” said Sawrey, who donated his time to make the gazebo a reality. It may be the most complicated thing he’s ever done in his life, as well.

Ali Long and her sons cut the ribbon as Garden Board President John Balint, Ketchum Mayor Nina Jonas and Sun Valley Mayor Dewayne Briscoe look on.

The tent-like gazebo, which was trucked to the garden along Highway 75 in the dark of night, is made with steel, rather than canvas. Sawrey worked with Bill Amaya of Cimarron Lofting to build a 3D model on computer. Welders David Swaner and Eddie Niehay worked to translate the curves and folds from computer to steel.

“Best in Faux” artists Mary Kenneally and Karen Jacobsen are painting aspen trees on the ceiling of the new garden pavilion.

The seams are designed to expand during hot weather yet remain waterproof during rainy weather. Subtle lighting illuminates the pavilion inside. And the centerpiece has been designed as an aspen tree that juts through the tent. Best in Faux artists Mary Kenneally and Karen Jacobsen are painting the ceiling with aspen leaves that echo the golden aspen of a Sun Valley autumn against a blue Idaho sky. On top of the aspen is a great horned owl—the bird of wisdom. The garden pavilion honors the memory of Ellen Corning Long, a Cleveland, Ohio, philanthropist and botanist and the mother of Sun Valley resident Ali Long. Long and her two sons cut the ribbon Monday evening during a private garden party marked by wine, champagne and hors d’oeuvres like bite-sized beets topped with goat cheese made of local foods procured by the Wood River Sustainability Center. Long, who donated a matching grant of $60,000 for the gazebo, said her mother’s death of breast cancer when she was 21 “taught me to make my life count. “I always wanted a place of beauty and opportunity to be with her after I arrived in the Valley,” she added. Long said that her mother loved dirt under her fingernails and had a fierce commitment to experiential learning—the type of learning that the Sawtooth Botanical Garden offers Wood River Valley residents. Rental of the pavilion will help provide the garden with monies to sustain it and its programs, which are offered free of charge. tws

Heritage Court Honors Edwards

1ST BREWFEST DRAFTS SUCCESS

Editor’s note: Four Wood River Valley women were inducted into the Blaine County Heritage Court Sunday afternoon during a coronation ceremony at The Liberty Theater in Hailey. This is a look at one of those women. STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

Joyce Edwards has eclipsed 70. But that hasn’t stopped her from standing in front of 18 fellow seniors and showing them how to exercise their arms by holding a rubber band with one hand and pulling back on it with the other as if it were a bow. Over the next hour Edwards leads the seniors, including a 94-year-old woman, through a variety of exercises, including lifting 2-pound rubber balls filled with sand. “It started four years ago after I was rear-ended in Bellevue,” said the Carey woman. “It broke the frame of my 1951 pickup and popped the rotator cuff in my right shoulder. I joined a class similar to this at the Hailey Senior Center for therapy. And, when they asked if anyone was interested in teaching a group in Carey, I said, ‘Yeah, I will.’ ” Edwards has never gone to college for a teaching degree. But she’s spent a lifetime teaching youngsters—and now adults—everything from how to handle snowmobiles to how to raise pigs. That prompted the Carey Economic Revitalization Group to nominate her for this year’s Blaine County Museum Heritage Court, which recognizes women for their contributions to the Wood River Valley. Edwards, Vivian Bobbitt, Dorothy Ann Outzs and Elizabeth “Betts” Simon were inducted into the court Sunday afternoon during a coronation ceremony at The Liberty Theatre. Raised in Twin Falls, Edwards moved to Carey when she married. She helped irrigate, run threshers and bale hay on the farm, in addition to keeping the books for the Picabo store and Wood River Drilling and Pump. She and her husband raised three daughters, including a Seattle hairdresser and an Oregon rancher. Her daughter Linda Hansen is married to a farmer who lives right around the corner. Edwards’ career as volunteer teacher started when she began driving her children and their friends from Carey to the Hiawatha Hotel in Hailey where she taught them to swim. When her entourage grew to 60, she chartered a bus to carry the kids and the moms who helped watch them. “We started at 8 in the morning when they This ATV-riding grandma served as the secretary of the little 4- and 5-yeardrained the pool for the Blaine County Republicans for 10 years. olds,” said Edwards, a competitive diver and synchronized swimmer during high school. “When the Hiawatha burned down in 1979, we moved to Clarendon Hot Springs—that was a good-sized pool with wooden dressing rooms on both sides. I even got certified to teach lifesaving—I had a 300-pound instructor try his best to drown me. The idea is do not try to save someone if you’re not an expert swimmer because they will drown you.” Edwards tried to get a pool built in Carey with a grant she secured and money from the snowmobile fund. But townspeople built a tennis court, instead. “The kids here need a pool so bad,” she lamented. When winter closed the pools, Edwards rallied parents to help her teach youngsters about snowmobiling. They rode from Smiley Creek to Stanley and around West Yellowstone, with the kids documenting what they’d done for 4-H projects. Edwards also taught cooking, sewing and bicycling for 4-H. Not too long ago, she organized a swine-raising club. “I taught 4-H for 34 years. My husband Larry and I became interested in showing pigs when our grandson decided he liked them. We’ve shown them in all kinds of shows around the area. They’re small and easy to handle,” she said. Edwards and her husband helped form the Southern Idaho Draft Horse and Mule Association in 1991. Their prize-winning Belgian draft horses have pulled wagons in the Wagon Days parade since 1991. Last year, Edwards’ 22-year-old granddaughter Shelby Hansen drove the wagon in the parade. “We have Quarterhorses to ride, but pulling horses are good for feeding cattle in winter when the snow’s so deep you can’t get tractors around,” she said. “I clean them and groom them. It’s a lot of work, but it’s rewarding when we see our beautiful horses all dressed up and prancing down the streets.” tws

WENDELL CAYTON

“Conspicuous Consumption” was a term coined by American economist and sociologist Thorstein Veblen in his best-known book, The Theory of the Leisure Class (1899). As a starving college student studying economic theory, I struggled to understand “conspicuous consumption,” having little to consume. I found myself revisiting Veblen’s theories a few weeks ago as I helped my wife pack up our house in preparation for a move to a new residence. As I carefully wrapped and packed box after box of family artifacts, refrigerator art that chronicled our daughter’s younger days, old furniture that we absolutely could not part with, and family heirlooms inherited from our parents, I realized that we were on our way to proving Veblen’s theories. Veblen divided society into two classes based upon their productive economic activity. In his world there were those who made their way via exploit and those who made their way by industry. Veblen saw society moving through a process where first came conspicuous leisure, followed by conspicuous consumption… both performed for the sole purpose of demonstrating wealth and social status. Fast forward to present times. We have moved twice in our 25 or so years of marriage. The first time we were shocked by how much stuff we had accumulated and swore that the next time would be different. It wasn’t… much. Despite making extensive use of “craigslist” to sell off unwanted furniture and household effects, we still had much more than I thought we should. And, the cost of moving, measured per pound, made it easy to put a price tag on anything that went in the moving van! The point: our experience makes me wonder if in our desire to consume—doing our fair share of spending to keep the economy afloat—we lose sight of what we can really do with our discretionary wealth. Could we have saved more, instead of spending, to start another business that might offer employment to others? Could we have built up a larger retirement account to buttress the effects and cost of living longer… which we will! Could we have put more of that money aside to help pay the increasingly higher costs of the college educations that will challenge our grandchildren? In the end, having kept all this “stuff” matters little. In the past few years I have helped a number of clients and their families deal with the estates of loved ones who have passed on. Disposing of a lifetime of collected memorabilia becomes a chore for those left behind. On our next travel adventure, I will think twice about buying a souvenir that will become just another thing to pack or throw away at some point!

reen drakes on the Big Wood and more and more fishable water appearing every day means happy anglers throughout the Wood River and Silver Creek valleys. The heat of summer is finally upon us and with it comes a return to almost all of our fisheries. The freestone streams like the Big Wood and the Upper Lost are entering one of the most prime times of the season to fish them! Stoneflies and green drakes are the bugs, with a mix of caddis and BWOs also. Expect the green drakes to begin moving north on the Big Wood. Anglers have been seeing a few mid-valley, but it is early enough they could show anywhere on the river given the right day. Keep in mind the green drake is a fair-weather insect that likes to hatch in the heat of the day. Often this happens in the afternoon around 2 or 3 p.m. Sometimes it will be earlier on a really hot day. Another thing to keep in mind is that the green drake likes to spin in the early morning coolness; 8 a.m. is not uncommon. The drakes spin over heavy, fast water and the fish know it. If you see a lot of drakes flying in the morning and you don’t see a lot of fish taking them, then try this: Take a Colorado green drake and pull the wing apart so it looks like two wings. Then soak the fly and even put a little split shot above it. Now place an indicator on the line and fish the drowned dry fly like a nymph. Fish the fast water and especially the water where the rapids slow to deep or glassy water at the end of the fast water. Silver Creek is fishing better and better as the more consistent warm days are making for more consistent hatches and spinner falls. The baetis and PMD are still the two main bugs out there, but the hoppers and tricos are coming on strong. The evening caddis action has been getting fish to the surface as well. Skating a Goddard caddis is our favorite technique when we see lots of caddis activity on the Creek.

It’s a great time of year out there! There are lots of places to fish and anglers can spread out all over the valley. We expect some great fish this week. If you get a great pic, send it to us for our blog at info@picaboangler.com.

Happy fishing everyone!

It takes three to five sessions to teach a behavior or skill, Jewell said. Guide dogs for the blind take the longest to train because the owners are usually less able to be involved in training. “The hardest thing is teaching the dog to ignore other dogs. That’s what a lot of the time goes to,” said Jewell. “Some trainers teach every behavior there is for a specific disability. I train the dog for what the person needs.” Jewell taught Choco to stay close to Friedlander in supermarket aisles—someone came around the corner and ran over the 90-pound German shepherd she trained for her hearing-impaired client. “My first rule is that the handler has to learn to protect their dog so the dog can protect them,” said Jewell. Jewell also taught Choco to lie on one hip to get her out of the aisle when Friedlander attends lectures. The dog lies so quietly that passengers don’t even realize Choco is on the plane with them. “Margery’s an active person who isn’t about to let MS keep her at home. The dogs really think about Margery and what they can do to help her,” said Jewell. Subhed The pick of the litter Friedlander got Tova when she was 10 weeks old with the idea that the younger dog could take over when Choco retired. Tova was confident but not too bold. She wasn’t a chaser or hunter— you don’t want the dogs sniffing the food at every table they go by in a restaurant. She didn’t jump when Margery opened an umbrella and she wasn’t afraid of new situations. The 45-pound dog, whose

strengths and weaknesses. Jewell found that out first-hand as she took a walk with her two German shepherds. When she wanted to jump over a stream, she called the retired hearing assistance dog, but he became impatient and ran off. The other dog, which she had not trained as a service dog, moved with her as she balanced herself putting a hand on its shoulder. The dog continued to walk with her the rest of the way, as if to say, “I’m here if you need me.” When the harness is off, Choco and Tova are free to bound through the shoulder-high lupine and other wildflowers outside the Friedlander home. Tova chases her tail and teases Choco, tugging on his ears with her mouth. Working 24/7 would make a dog neurotic—pity hearing dogs, who must listen for certain sounds continually, Jewell said. But when the harness goes on, they’re ready to work—even bathroom breaks are dictated by

up and runs to the door, as if to say, “Here I am! Let’s go!” while Choco rolls over on his side. “I don’t feel like it today,” he yawns. “I’m perfectly happy staying home.” There is no perfect dog when it comes to service dogs, Jewell said. Smaller dogs may be better for those in wheelchairs because they can hop up on the person’s lap. Dogs with hip dysplasia would not be a good match for someone like Friedlander who is going to be leaning on them occasionally. Like humans, each has his

their master. They get groomed every two weeks—they’ve got to be clean if you’re taking them out in public, said Friedlander. Come chow time, they get a banquet of grain-free kibble, Cowboy Cookout canned beef and veggies, and raw chicken wings and drumsticks. Friedlander smiles as she watches them nibble on a Zuke’s treat. “I don’t know what I’d do without them.” tws

The Social Dog BY FRAN JEWELL

ith almost every call I get, a voice on the other end of the phone says, “I just want my dog to be able to get along with any dog and be happy!” While this is not an unreasonable desire, it is probably not realistic for every dog. To understand why, we need to look at just who dogs are and where they came from. Often I incorporate discussion with my clients about the wolf pack and the inherent traits dogs have with wolves. There are trainers that will not admit that the modern domestic dog is related to the wolf even though DNA has proven that dogs are direct descendents of wolves. From my experience with having trained over 5,000 dogs in the Wood River Valley alone and from living with a pack of 7-8 German shepherds at one time, I simply cannot discredit the factual basis of so many behaviors dogs have that come directly from wolves. The unfortunate part is that whenever anyone even mentions the word wolf, so many incorrect connotations ascend to the forefront of our consciousness. The more I train dogs, the more I see wolf-like behaviors that come directly from the distant wolf heritage all dogs share. It doesn’t matter if you have a Yorkie or a husky, all dogs share certain traits that come from wolves. At this point I need to interject that NOT ALL INHERENT WOLF BEHAVIOR IN DOGS IS AGGRESSION! Somewhere, somehow, people have come to the conclusion that inherent wolf behavior must be aggression. It is not. Inherent wolf behavior comes in many forms. The “pack” and a dog’s pack DRIVE is one example and what we will explore and explain here. Wolf pack behavior is what we humans need to understand in order to understand OUR DOG.

other and understand their pack structure. The wolf pack is very similar to the human family with the higher ranking male and female much like a human mother and father. The siblings also have their rank below the parents. Usually human siblings, because of their age and maturity, have different roles they play in the family, just like in the wolf pack. One of the very first things we must understand about dogs is that while they distinguish that humans are different than other dogs, they do not know how to relate to people any differently than they relate to other dogs. They simply do not have sophisticated enough emotional and mental abilities to relate any differently than as a pack to humans. Therefore, any human they live with IS INDEED ONE OF THEIR PACK MEMBERS. Now that we have established two things—first, that a pack remains somewhat consistent throughout the wolf lifespan and, secondly, that dogs relate to humans like pack members—we can now understand some basic canine behavior. What that means for our modern domesticated dog is that frequent changes in the social pack are not normal for any canine.

Dogs are social, but do not know how to relate to people any differently than they relate to other dogs We hear that phrase often: “PACK BEHAVIOR.” It is true that dogs are pack animals and find emotional comfort from their pack. Often, we humans have taken that to mean that our dogs NEED to have other dog friends to be happy. We are further driven in this belief with the invention of doggie daycare, play groups, dog obedience classes and the insatiable need we humans have to collect multiple dogs to have in our homes. Let us for a minute take a look at the wolf pack and how it functions. The wolf pack is a constant for the individual members. The pack cares for each other. They each have roles to perform in the group. They work together to hunt and take down prey to survive. The entire group helps to feed and care for the young. The wolf pack remains the same, each with their specific roles within the pack, for the history of the pack. The only variables happen when a wolf ages and dies, is wounded and dies, or when new young members are born into the pack. But they MUST have their group members to survive. They MUST be social with each

While some dogs are more able to cope with accepting new dogs into their social pack structure, others are still trying to overcome their natural instincts and hardwired response to having a consistent pack. We humans expect dogs to simply get along with every dog they meet on the trail, at day care, etc., and to accept those other dogs in a matter of seconds when they don’t even have any idea of where that dog fits into the current social structure. This is enormous pressure for any dog, even the most highly “socialized” dog or puppy. Thinking back to the wolf pack, the social structure, or pack, remains, for the most part, stable and consistent. Now we are asking our modern dogs to change the pack structure in a matter of seconds, and to do it with delight. As a dog behavior consultant and someone passionate about the natural behaviors of dogs, I see this as extremely stressful for the average dog to be able to cope with these demands on an everyday basis.

We humans are many times at the core of the problem for dogs in their social skills with other dogs

Does that mean that I don’t approve of multiple-dog households, dog parks, daycare, or other dog social events? Not at all. But what I do think is that we as humans need to have realistic expectations about what each individual dog can handle, and to ACCEPT who our individual dog is. Some dogs do thrive on relationships with other dogs, and it is easy for them to cope with the changes in pack structure and social rank. This is, however, usually a lower ranking dog that can make these adjustments easily. Dogs that are unsure of their social rank in any pack are more stressed by frequent changes and new dogs. Unfortunately, we humans are incredibly talented in treating dogs like people instead of dogs, so that their personal social rank is very difficult for the dog to define, and to be comfortable with. To that end, we humans are many times at the core of the problem for dogs in their social skills. This is why it is imperative that we human dog owners accept the responsibility of treating dogs like dogs, giving them healthy boundaries and social structure. We need to understand that dogs are not people and should not be treated like little people. They are not our equals. In the dog pack, there are no equals. There is always someone higher or lower in social rank. Always. When we try to treat them equally to each other, or to us, they become confused and eventually neurotic. Treating a dog like a dog does not have to be inhumane. We confuse treating a dog like a dog with our fear of being inhumane. We fear not treating them as equals. Although a cloud of controversy surrounds the dominance theory, we still need to accept that dogs live with social rank every moment of their lives. That simply is who they are. I am only stating that in order to be more HUMANE to our dogs, we must treat them like the dogs they are and accept that they are descendants of the wolf. We must accept that not all dogs are able to change pack structure quickly, just like wolves. Once we understand that, we move closer to understanding that not all dogs can be social butterflies. Some dogs are further evolved away from innate wolf behaviors than others. When we stop forcing uncomfortable day-to-day—or minute-to-minute—pack changes for our dogs, we might find that they can better cope with the demands made on a modern domesticated dog. We further need to understand that, in a dog’s eyes, we humans are also a part of their pack and their social needs. Not all dogs need multiple dogs in their lives to be happy. A dog can be happy if they are the only dog in your household. YOU are a part of their pack and YOU can influence their happiness by honoring them for the beautiful dogs that they are!

Meet The Balsamroot STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

he arrowleaf balsamroot, shown here on the trail between Dagger Falls and Marsh Creek, has been having a banner year throughout Central Idaho. The showy yellow-leafed flower—a member of the sunflower family—is so-named because of its large green leaves that look like spear heads or arrows. Its roots contain a fragrant resin or balsam. Often a foot tall, it’s one of the first large plants to blanket mountainsides throughout the Great Basin each spring. Local Native Americans used every part of the plant for food and medicine. They peeled and ate the flower stems, nibbled on the oil-laden seeds and dried and pounded the root into flour. Medicinally, they used it for a pain reliever and to treat colds since it has properties similar to those of Echinacea. Powdered balThis bouquet of arrowleaf balsamsamroot leaves can be applied to the root was spotted growing between skin and covered with hot towels to Dagger Falls and Marsh Creek northheal burns, insect bites and wounds west of Stanley. and to ease pain from bruising, according to the Herbal Country Doctor. The powder can also be used as an antifungal for athlete’s foot, jock itch and other such irritants. Elk and antelope browse the flowers and leaves as they’re trying to put on weight after winter; they’ll eat it again when fall rains soften the leaves. Sage grouse and small mammals also browse it. Many people try to transplant Echinacea in their yard, but they might as well start digging to China, as the plant’s taproot sometimes stretches 8 feet deep. Participants can meet at 9:30 a.m. at the garden, a few miles south of Ketchum on Highway 75. Walkers are encouraged to bring their own picnics and wear comfortable walking shoes. The outing is expected to last until about 2 p.m. The walk is free, but donations are accepted. Make reservations by calling 208-726-9358.

The Dollhouse Consignment Boutique

ashion is a way of life for Dollhouse owner Lara Spencer. It started with her mother and her mother’s sense of fashion and style as an interior designer. Lara grew up in Alaska and found music as an inspiration to help her create an image and set trends for her own fashion and style. She recalls being in seventh grade when the first thrift store opened in her hometown. This new concept of using recycled goods and mixing it with high-fashion designs allowed her to get even more creative with trendsetting. She bought a pair of cowboy boots from the thrift store and spray painted them pink; the love for recycled fashion had started! She has never allowed the opinions of others to direct her. Lara Spencer truly stands out as a unique, strong woman that believes fashion can transform a person’s self-esteem and is not shallow. Fashion can empower, uplift and create a perception that can transform a woman’s soul. This is what motivated the opening of the Dollhouse. Her motto is: “Service and empowerment first, financial gain second.” Lara left a very successful position working for the Seattle Mariners to move to the Wood River Valley to help a niece that was struggling with feelings of insecurity and self-doubt in high school. Lara remembered those feelings and felt the need to come and be supportive with her deepest passion—fashion and entrepreneurship. She found herself becoming a role model not only for her niece but for many teens and women in the Valley. She is a survivor of domestic violence and helps her community through various outlets; supporting The Advocates as a board member at one time and recently working with high-school teens through the new Advocates Internship Program. She also supports the Barkin’ Basement with donations from consigners, The Hunger Coalition, the Hailey Fire Department, and any other charitable ventures she can help with. She has had her own struggles as a business owner, as every business in the Valley has, caused by the various disasters our Valley has faced. Added to that, she has moved her business five times in the last seven years. This past November she found herself settling in to her new location at 406 N. Main St. in Hailey. She credits her success to God, her amazing clientele, and a very supportive business community. Lara’s clients feel just as passionate about Lara and The Dollhouse, with quotes and praise thanking her for her personal character—“being warm and generous of time and spirit” that makes people feel like she is there just for them. Lara is very proud of her accomplishments and her 20-plus years of consignment/ fashion/stylist experience and she is grateful for the opportunity to have a platform where she can put fashion and compassion together—which is her passion. Once you shop at The Dollhouse, Lara knows what styles you like and she will instantly have a handful of fashion suggestions that always leave you satisfied. For a great shopping experience, stop by The Dollhouse. You truly are loved there.

Symbolic Moment At The Fire Station STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

Carl Hjelm fingered the folded flag in his hands lovingly. “My dad was a fireman in the Navy during the Korean War,” he told more than 300 people assembled for the monthly Hailey Business After Hours outside the Hailey Fire Department Thursday evening. “This was given to me at his funeral but this will be the first time it’s ever flown. I’m so honored to have that opportunity to fly it, and I know he would be honored, too.” With that, Hjelm, the assistant fire chief for Hailey, hoisted the flag with the help of Fire Chief Craig Aberbach and fellow firefighter Christian Ervin. Seconds later, it sat atop a new flagpole that Hailey firefighters had installed a few weeks earlier. “There’s nothing more American than the American flag,” observed Hailey Mayor Fritz Haemmerle, as he told how firefighters had raised the money for the pole from Hailey citizens and how members of Girl Scout Troop 392 had planted flowers around the pole. “That flag symbolizes the greatness of our country. And, more importantly, that flag symbolizes the patriotism of the people of Hailey,” he added, taking a jab at outsiders’ criticism of Hailey residents over the release of Hailey Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. Bergdahl, American’s only POW in Afghanistan, has become the focus of political infighting and talk show hosts since his release. Chuey Hartman crooned country-Western tunes from atop a fire truck as adults and kids lined up for burgers donated by The Wicked Spud. Sun Valley Brewing Co. donated beer; di Vine wine bar and Neuhoff Communications, a $2,000 marketing campaign. The next BAH will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. July 17 at The Hunger Coalition’s Hope Garden next to the Blaine County Courthouse. tws LEFT: Hailey firefighter Gus Conrad squats next to a toilet bowl the Hailey Fire Department set out to symbolize its efforts to “flush cancer down the toilet” by participating in next month’s Relay For Life. “It’s awesome to bring awareness to a great cause like this,” Conrad said.

Kids got a chance to check their blood pressure inside an ambulance, while adults got to practice taking the pin out of fire extinguishers Saturday at the annual Fire Services Appreciation Day hosted by Ketchum and Sun Valley firefighters. New this year was a demonstration of firefighters banging their way through a roof—not an easy task given the community’s requirements for roofs that can withstand heavy snow loads. Firefighters also showed how they remove an injured firefighter from a building and how they bang their way through a door to get inside a burning house. If you are forced to escape a burning house, close doors behind you, a firefighter admonished. Closed doors slow a fire’s progress. tws
