And just like that, we’ve been in this for a year.

It’s strange to say that it’s been more than a year since the first case of COVID-19 was diagnosed in Michigan. It seems like it was just yesterday that we all first went home and started ordering masks in bulk from Amazon.

Now, things are starting to turn around. We have vaccines, with the threshold of 100 million shots in arms in the USA reached in March. Restrictions are loosening and life — like the current season — looks to be in bloom once more.

But, like a Michigan spring, it will take a while to fully arrive, and we can’t let the slow arrival of proverbial new life get us down while we wait for it to get here. So, for now, take comfort in the joys we do have. Embrace the warming weather by getting your garden ready to bring color and flavor to your life. Tackle that home renovation project you’ve been dwelling on while working from home and revel in your revived space. Plan for more colorful clothes as the seasons shift. There’s plenty that says the worst of this pandemic is behind us, but we still need to look out for each other more than usual for a little while longer. So, stay safe, be cautious, but have some fun while you do. Hopefully, this edition of Our Town will help you do just that.

RECREATION AND REBIRTH

Area entertainment industry prepared to rebound from COVID-19

By Drew Saunders

It is hard to think of a business that has been hit harder by the coronavirus than the entertainment industry. But entertainment venues across Lenawee County are not just surviving, they are preparing to come back stronger after enough people are vaccinated against COVID-19, if only they can attract patrons again.

The Michigan International Speedway has managed to keep the sounds of roaring engines alive in the Irish Hills over the past year, albeit not at full capacity. NASCAR is still planning on starting its races there on August 22, but MIS President Rick Brenner said they will be following the ever-changing health directives from Lansing.

“Our first goal in any year is to run a safe event that is fun and entertaining for our guests. Whatever we have to do to do that, we are prepared to… do whatever we have to do,” Brenner said.

The Croswell Opera House is going to start with outdoor performances this spring. While the location hasn’t been decided on, the opera house’s Erik Gable said that they plan having these performances straight through to the fall, when indoor performances are planned to resume.

Movie theaters like the MJR north of Adrian are going to continue opening cautiously as well, under limited hours. The movie theater is not facing closure, and

neither are any of MJR’s theaters, according to MJR Marketing Director Erik Gubert.

Gubert didn’t seem to be that bothered by some media conglomerates — namely Warner Media, which owns Warner Brothers and DC — deciding to release their feature films both in brick and mortar theaters and on their streaming service HBO Max, this year. Gubert said that since not everyone has the streaming service, and “people still want to go out and get that experience. Especially for something like Wonder Woman or Godzilla. Big event movies [are movies] people want to see on the big screen.”

WHAT DOES ADRIAN THINK ABOUT THE NEW STIMULUS PACKAGE?

By Kate Mitchell | Editor in Chief

Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, decisions made at the state and national levels can hit even closer to home. The recent passage of the American Rescue Plan is one of those decisions, an act with a high price tag but one that will bring millions of dollars to Lenawee County. So we wanted to know…

“I think it will. People will be more likely to shop downtown and get their finances in order.”

Victoria Lambright, Adrian

“It will a lot. People have their jobs again and it will help a lot with local commerce. It will help keep people safe with the health money, too.”

Felipe Lemos, Adrian

“It will, for small businesses it will help a lot. People will have money to go shop.”

Yaquelin Navas, Adrian

“It’s going to do a lot for smaller restaurants. It will help them open back up and get a little bit of a jump start. I’m not sure about retail, but I think it will help stu downtown.”

Zach Brewer, Adrian

“I think it’s good. I think it will stimulate the economy.”

STIMULUS PACKAGE WILL HELP ADRIAN?”

enclosed space of a movie theater, Gubert says the theater o ers private screenings. This is where groups of up to 20 people can get a deeply cleaned movie theater to themselves. Old movies can be screened for $99 and new movies can be screened at $149.

“We are fully prepared to come out of this. It gets better every day. More movies are coming back into the schedule,” Gubert said. “We will be back as strong as ever, as soon as everything calms down.”

The Tecumseh Pub is currently welcoming patrons at 25 percent capacity and co-owner Kyle DeWitt is hoping to get up to 50 percent capacity by midMarch. DeWitt and his business partner Tim Schmidt run a restaurant in downtown Tecumseh and a separate production facility and tap room in a pole barn nearby. One of their saving graces, according to DeWitt, was the pre-pandemic purchase of a food truck. DeWitt said that while they didn’t intend it this way, the ...flexibility of their food truck has allowed them to be a kitchen for their tap room.

“We got the food truck o cially licensed in the November before the pandemic, and everything ready to go by February. Then COVID hit,” DeWitt said. As they were riding out the pandemic – and even hiring more employees on a part time basis — having the food truck was “huge. It was very prudent for us to do this,” even though, Dewitt acknowledged, it was basically accidental.

The Brick Walker Tavern won’t be back to normal operations until after the Fourth of July at the earliest, not because of COVID-19, but because of renovations.

Laurie Perkins, a historian with the state park system, told Adrian Our Town that during their “summer of construction,” they will keep exhibitions in the former stagecoach building and will keep the building closed.

“Live music and trivia nights will be returning to Dewitt’s business as soon as it is safe to do so.”

“Walker Tavern, in one form or another, has been a tourist attraction in the Irish Hills for 100 years, this November,” Perkins said.

Some exhibits will be open however. The historic barn will be inspected by the Michigan Barn Preservation Network this April, but its renovation work will not start until this fall. And of course, the adjacent Watkins State Park will be open.

All of the venues’ owners said that their reopening strategies hinge on the health guidelines dictated by the statistics gathered in Washington and Lansing. Lockdown restrictions have been widely protested in this year-long pandemic, but the owners of these venues insisted that they have to stick to them for the safety of their patrons and employees.

Pledge for Vaccinations

President Biden has pledged that 100 million vaccinations will be administered in his first 100 days. But supply issues and a seeming lack of coordination between Washington and state capitols have slowed down the process considerably, meaning that the current best guess most people have for when life could get back to normal is somewhere in the mid-summer.

It is yet to be seen if that will happen. But once it does, Lenawee County will still have a wide range of attractions ready to welcome patrons back to have fun and socialize, county-wide.

STORES SHIFT FOR SPRING STYLES

By Lorie Beardsley-Heyn

The coming of spring signals a renewal not only in the winter-weary world around us, but also in our wardrobes as we put away the darker and heavier clothes in anticipation of lighter and brighter fashion.

After a di cult 2020 and a dreary winter, lighter and brighter are definitely in vogue this spring. The color palette for the 2021 season has been described as “sorbet pastels.” Kassi Crawford, manager at the women’s clothing store Maurices in Adrian, echoed that sentiment, “We’re seeing brighter tones with more saturated colors.”

Pantone has released its colors for this season, among them are raspberry sorbet, a vibrant pink-purple color that evokes images of spring flowers; burnt coral, a rich and soft peachy color; marigold orange, a deeper

and warmer blend of orange and yellow; green ash, a soft and pleasant pistachio green; cerulean blue, a milky pastel blue; and illuminating – Pantone’s color of the year – a vivid, cheerful yellow.

While the focus will shift to cheerful colors for spring, the trend in fabrics will continue from the fall. “The shift has very much been to comfort clothing,” Crawford said. Loungewear is still in demand, and soft fabrics will abound, in items ranging from tops to dresses.

Dresses are always a predominant spring clothing item. Bralette, babydoll, and A-line dresses in florals, grays, and pastels like baby pink will be on trend this season.

Erik Cha n, store manager at the “fast fashion’ retailer rue21 in Adrian, said that dresses will be in abundance at his store.

“Shoppers will find styles appropriate for attending church, taking those Easter pictures, and creating that spring girl look by pairing a bralette dress with a jean cut-o jacket and a hat,” Cha n said.

As for denim, the trend will be toward more straight leg jeans. Graphic tees would be an ideal pairing. Crawford noted that graphic tees are on trend at Maurices, featuring messages about kindness and peace and other messages that reflect the current culture.

Cha n also noted that the 90s remain on trend for spring with graphic tees at rue21 featuring designs from Disney, Sailor Moon, and 90s themed TV shows. The 90s theme appears on masks, as well as words and phrases, and plain color masks as well.

Crawford said that the masks available at Maurices, feature prettier and more delicate designs and the colors that people will be wearing this spring.

Though masks continue to be an accessory in 2021 allowing for expressions of individuality, they also

conceal a great deal of one’s face, in some cases leading to changes in the way people choose to apply makeup. “I think people have learned to do something di erent with makeup,” Crawford said, “There is more focus on the eyes of course.”

A “reimagined cat eye” will be popular in 2021 according to Vogue. In continuing with the trend toward cheerful color, bold colors will also be prevalent in lipstick in particular for those who choose to apply lipsticks.

In addition to the colorful choices that will be available this spring, expect to see the classic neutral trend as well. The neutral trend can be worn in a variety of ways such as pairing grey pants with a soft, white tee, or camel chinos, which will definitely be on-trend this spring, with a classic white button-up shirt.

When it comes to the classic white button-up shirts, expect to see the oversized white shirt this spring. In addition to white, the oversized shirt will be available in colors like the soft blue.

Oversize jackets will also be in style this season, particular as layering pieces are part of an early spring wardrobe.

Though comfort is on trend with more people working or attending classes from home, many people still have to go to work. When it comes to business casual attire, shoppers will find a mix of both the softer fabrics and the more traditional fabrics. Crawford noted that this year’s colors will be making their way into business casual looks in the way of tops and blouses.

As for accessories, layered jewelry will also be a popular look this spring according to Cha n. The varying lengths of the pieces at rue21 make it an ideal choice for the lower necklines in tops and dresses. Crawford noted that the 90s trend can be seen in the jewelry as well, with their pieces featuring delicate charms and varying lengths of simple chains.

Spring footwear will follow the shift toward comfort. Crawford mentioned that wedge sneakers and sneakers in pretty colors will be in this season, but, of course, sandals will be part of the spring lineup as well.

When it comes to a season’s varied trends, the prevailing advice is that fashion should be fun. Cha n agrees with that message, “You can wear anything. We have a lot of everything for everyone.” so take a note from the themes for spring 2021. Find enjoyable places to shop and brighten up your wardrobe with comfortable choices.

A Quest for Truth

By Anissa Gabbara

Discovering one’s innate gift is often a life-long journey. But Erika Cadieux, self-taught artist and owner of Hooligan’s Grill, tapped into her purpose early on in her remarkable journey, which would set the tone for her life’s mission of paying it forward and seeking truth.

Since opening Hooligan’s Grill back in 2013, Cadieux says she feels that the longevity of the restaurant’s success is a tribute to the community’s support. Interestingly enough, it was her interior design background that made it all happen. She opened SQ Design in 1996, doing residential work for a couple years before diving into her first commercial and restaurant projects.

“I woke up one day and said ‘I really would love to design a restaurant,’” says Cadieux. “Within 45 days, I had a great restaurant I was designing, and it started from there.”

Twenty-five years later, Cadieux has designed well over a dozen restaurants, and would eventually consider ownership after developing an interest in the customer experience. “In our society, we celebrate everything in restaurants, from anniversaries and birthdays, to even sad things, including divorce,” she says. “We congregate in restaurants to socialize. It’s part of American culture, and I really wanted to be part of that.”

Cadieux currently resides in Onsted with her husband, Kent. In addition to her design and hospitality careers, Cadieux owns AEM Holdings, a real estate development company. She is even involved in the technology industry as the inventor of GoDotz, a wearable technology designed to facilitate the use of smaller touchscreen devices for people who struggle performing certain activities, such as typing. The newest hat she wears is Midwest Energy & Communications director, with a desire to serve the community she represents, and experience working in a corporate environment — one of few things she’s never done. Her unconventional-yetimpressive journey serves as inspiration for many, but it would be a stretch to say that success came easy.

She recalls starting to paint before she could even read.

“In my family, we have a learning disability that’s kind of genetic; it’s called auditory processing deficiency,” says Cadieux. “I couldn’t read or even begin to start to learn how to read until I was probably 8 years old, but I’ve been painting as early as I can remember.”

As a result, Cadieux made it a point to excel at everything through education, and would become the selfdriven entrepreneur she is today. “I’ve always known that I work better for myself than somebody else.”

Painting was her first love, and served as an escape from a tough childhood. “I did not have the best childhood, so I lacked any personal value,” she says. “I had to learn that

God truly did value me, and I realized that God has always been with me in ways I am made aware of and in ways I will never know.”

It’s because of her past that she feels compelled to spread the message of self-worth and realization. “I guess that’s why I want to pay it forward so much, because we can define who we want to be in life. It’s recognizing what our contributions can be, and that we’re all here for a purpose.”

Cadieux notes that her artwork is a reflection of her religious beliefs and journey — hence many of its divine themes. It’s hard to imagine that she refrained from painting for 20 years, which she attributes to personal trauma.

“During that time, I lost my sister in a car accident, days before her 21st birthday,” she said. “Then I got a divorce from an abusive situation, which although he was abusive, I have to acknowledge that my reactions to tolerate and excuse were not right either. I can only hope my story helps someone else to claim their own truth.”

Her journey to healing didn’t begin overnight, but her artistic talents would make a comeback just two years prior to opening the doors of Hooligan’s Grill. There is a painting in particular, one that is quite personal, that hangs in the dining room of Cadieux’s home — the very first painting she completed after the 20-year hiatus from picking up a paint brush. “It’s kind of a tribute to my daughter and me, and that means a lot.”

But tragedy struck once again when she was diagnosed with stage 2 colon cancer within less than three months of opening the restaurant. “That near-death experience really does change a person, but it took time for that to happen,” she recalls. “Mine was not a cathartic experience instantly; it was more over a period of time, and it made me understand who I truly was and my art expressed that.”

Traces of Cadieux’s origins adorn the walls of Hooligan’s Grill — one is a tribute to her grandfather who ran away from home at age 13 during the Great Depression. He would go on to teach himself how to read and become a skilled stonemason. Furthermore, many of Cadieux’s paintings display the vision she always had for her life. “I did a painting of a boat; it was a dream of mine to have a lake house, which I have now,” she says. Another dream of hers was to have the freedom of bringing her dog to

work every day, which she proudly does today. This vision, too, has made its way to the canvas.

The banquet room of Hooligan’s Grill is embellished with ethereal-looking paintings of figures

floating in water, all done in mixed media, including acrylic and oils. “Fall From Grace” is a work of art that shows a woman descending from a cloud-like form symbolic of God, reaching for what appears to be his hand. “The message is that we never fall so far from God. He is always there with us, and there is nothing that can separate us from him, but we have to choose that,” explains Cadieux.

Then there’s “Baptism by Fire,” a quaint image of a woman wrapped around in red fabric, which Cadieux says is symbolic of fire, and a depiction of our past experiences wrapping around us to help create who we are.

“Fire consumes and burns all parts of us, and the traumas we su er can consume us the way fire does as we struggle to overcome,” she explains. “You can see the woman twisting and turning with tension trying to get away from the hurt.”

Much of the restaurant’s charm is derived from Cadieux’s signature style, which incorporates the use of existing or repurposed materials within the design, deviating from the “cookiecutter” look. “I wanted to carry that warm, family-friendly, communityoriented environment, and not just a reflection of myself, but also an independence and individuality that we as Americans all have.”

Fast-forwarding to the present, Cadieux says that it’s been hard to grapple with the pains of the pandemic and its impact on local businesses, but is looking forward to getting back to some normalcy. “It’s been very di cult, and needless to say I’m very happy that it seems like in our community, most everybody has survived, which is absolutely fantastic.”

As a businesswoman juggling multiple careers, Cadieux says that finding time to paint is more challenging nowadays. “I actually have to force time for that, but I do have one that’s kind of in the works,” she says. Over Christmas, Cadieux surprised her stepdaughter with a special painting: “It was a tribute to her — she had lost her horse.”

If Cadieux is an advocate for anything in life, it’s seeking truth; the truth about ourselves. “Try to identify who you really are and welcome that,” she advises. “If you don’t like what you’re seeing, seek out to change that, and while everybody’s message is di erent, we all have a purpose — every single one of us.”

For Cadieux, drawing from her faith is what keeps her going. Moreover, it serves as a reminder to never drift too far away from what brings us joy. “Go back to what was right and what you knew worked,” she says. “Even though it may be hard, you have to take the time to do it because it keeps you in a positive realm where you can keep contributing, paying it forward, and finding that joy and happiness that everybody is seeking.”

A NEW LOOK: TACKLING HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS

DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

By Drew Saunders

People have gotten pretty sick and tired of seeing the inside of their homes since the lockdown over the coronavirus began. And since it’s often not really possible to go out and do much, people are often choosing to tackle those home improvement projects that they have been “getting around to” for years. But if you need a contractor or an interior decorator to “get around to” your home improvement project, can you do so safely? According to the interior decorators, contractors and home furniture and building suppliers interviewed for this article, it simply comes down to taking precautions.

“We’re following the National Builder Associations Guidance, and the State of Michigan’s,” guidance on COVID-19, Doug Straub, the Construction Manager for Habitat of Humanity for Lenawee County, said.

Straub was only one of two full time employees working on a house near Adrian’s State Fair Grounds late last August; strictly practicing social distancing, filling out questionnaires, sanitizing equipment and taking temperature tests before performing work. None of the traditional volunteers are being used simply because Straub said they can’t be supervised as closely as current regulations require.

But houses and businesses are still aging and the list of what needs fixing around Lenawee County never stops growing or getting chipped away at. Home renovation projects, calls to plumbers and electricians and visits from interior decorators can be much the same as before. Interior designer Mary Busscher used to conduct meetings over Zoom when the lockdown went into e ect and has gone back to meeting willing customers at their homes in person, wearing a mask in a very limited number of visits.

“Doing meetings one on one and not in a large group, has worked out so far,” Busscher said.

The home décor and remodeling industries shut down with the rest of the economy when Gov. Gretchen Whitmer shut down the state to try and contain COVID-19. Since they got back up and running last summer, they have returned to what they have always done and in some cases are quite busy. But supply chain problems mean that interior decorators, utility contractors and construction workers are forced by increasing prices and constant delays to work far more slowly, in an endless cycle of starts and stops.

Like just about every industry in the COVID-19 era, construction and home supply companies have been facing supply chain problems as their suppliers of raw materials and

replacement parts had to shut down. Lyn Marks, the owner of Lenawee Carpet One Floor, said that it is getting easier to get products over time as their suppliers have gotten back up and running.

“It seems like we’ve done quite a bit of areas that haven’t previously been done before. Like perhaps people have had time to finish their basement or finish their unfinished bonus room or something like that,” Marks said.

Some are following guidelines for social distancing and mask wearing more than others though.

“I did sit down and talk to everyone about the precautions we’re supposed to take and honestly none of us feel threatened or scared by it so we’re just continuing on like we normally have,” Craig Rodosalewicz, a home construction contractor who runs a five man business that reports being busy over the summer, said.

Rodosalewicz said that since he wasn’t aware of anyone in his circle of close acquaintances had apparent contact with the virus, he and his employees felt that they don’t have to take precautions. However, Rodosalewicz added that he does wear a mask when asked to by a client or prompted to when entering a business “out of a respect for other businesses.”

“If there’s a sign up for a mask I will wear a mask as a respect to the business. I mean, if some people don’t really care, then I’m not gonna really care,” Rodosalewicz added. “I’m not scared by this.”

Matt Swartzlander of the Adrian Area Chamber said that they are encouraging all small business owners to “deal with the small inconveniences” but come together and follow state health guidelines during the pandemic.

“It’s important that all of our businesses take these guidelines seriously. And while we continually advocate to lessen the burden on our businesses, these guidelines are still there regardless. As community members, we need to do our best to abide by the guidelines that are there. In some places OSHA has been out to make surprise visits. We’re encouraging businesses to do the best that they can with the guidelines and make sure that things are done in the best interests of the business community,” Swartzlander said.

To protect the community, the Adrian Area Chamber is teaming up with Dynamic Industrial Supply, Lenawee County and the Michigan Chamber of Commerce to connect small businesses with manufacturers and distributors of PPE.

SERVICE LINE COVERAGE

Are you protected from unexpected damages caused from a leak, a collapse, broken or ruptured pipes of service lines? Does your current home-owners insurance protect against the potential damages such as;

• Underground broken pipes

• Wiring

• Devices that attached to your home connecting your home to public utilities or service providers

• Tree Roots

When might you need this type of coverage?

These unexpected damages could cause thousands of dollars to you. Tree roots that might grow into a sewer pipe causing it to leak or break not only requires a replacement of the sewer line but also the cost of someone to dig up the old line and replace it with a new line as well as a backhoe to dig it up.

If an underground utility line providing electricity to your home were to deteriorate and result in arching, not only causes an interruption to your homes service but the cost to have the line dug up and replaced could cost upward thousands of dollars.

Limits and Deductibles

Service Line Coverage is o ered on a per occurrence basis. A deductible of $500 with a $10,000 limit is available. Talk with your local agent to learn how this product protects your home by extending cover to these potential damages.

Tip Top Comes Back Strong After Lockdown

Connection, normalcy, and relaxation and indulgence all seemed to slip silent away as 2020 wore on, but those very things are priorities for Lauren Benschoter of Tip Top Tanning.

She began working at the Adrian Tanning salon in February of 2010. She experienced a sense of connection while working at Tip Top Tanning, to the extent that in November of 2015 she purchased the business. She wanted to pass that sense of comfort and belonging on to her clients, “I hope when everyone comes in they feel like family.”

The business was closed due to the pandemic from March 22nd through June 15, 2020. This was unfortunate timing given that February through June is their busiest time period. During that time, Benschoter had to be creative.

She learned that her suppliers had product available for her, “Product has always been a priority, but it had become a bigger priority.” Of particular importance was the hand sanitizer that she was able to obtain, since that had been in short supply during the early weeks and months of the lockdown. She was pleased to be able to provide that product, “I felt that was one way that I could help the community.”

Product remains a significant part of the business. A favorite among the sta is Awe Struck, a product that provides

immediately results and feels great on your skin. That product is available for $135, a $70 discount. Patrons will find a wide variety of tanning products that will add value to their tanning experience, and hand sanitizers continues to be available as well.

Re-opening went smoothly for Benschoter, “I feel like I’ve recovered pretty well.” She received support from the community, and she did not need to make significant changes in order to reopen “Everything has always been cleaned in between every person, the tanning beds, door handles, timers, everything. I have always had a high expectation for cleanliness.”

Reflecting on the past year, Benschoter said, “I have not cried or prayed so much in my entire life. I want to thank everyone for their support. I know everyone had a hard year, but every little bit helps.”

When Visiting Angels of South Central Michigan opened in May of 2017, independence became more readily available to seniors throughout Lenawee, Hillsdale, and Jackson counties.

“While I was deployed to Afghanistan in 2014 and 2015 as a commander in the Army, I became close to one of my soldiers, Chief Warrant O cer 4 William Bruck. Prior to our deployment, William had recently opened a Visiting Angels Senior Home Care agency. Following our deployment, William and I stayed in touch. I continued to monitor how his home care company was doing, and more importantly, how rewarding the mission of providing safety and assistance to our senior population was for him,” said fellow owner Tim Welbaum.

“After conducting our due diligence, we decided that placing our headquarters in Adrian, and operating throughout South Central Michigan would o er us a beautiful opportunity to assist thousands of seniors in need as the only veteran owned and operated home care agency in our territory.”

Serving the veterans of the community is important to the owners. Unfortunately, insurance companies rarely o er coverage for home care services. Private pay and long-term care insurance are the ways through which families pay for care, but additional options may be available to veterans.

“I pride myself on being able to provide our qualified senior Veteran population with the home care services that so many of them desperately need throughout our community, at no

humbling than providing home care services to those heroes who served us in World War II, Korea, Vietnam and now even the Persian Gulf War.”

Visiting Angels seeks to provide care to all local seniors who would like to remain at home. Their vast array of services includes bathing and dressing assistance. meal planning and preparation, incidental transportation, companionship, and much more.

The standard of care is high at Visiting Angels, “We are one of the few agencies in the area that require at least one year of experience working in a facility or two years of experience working in the home care field. Although not a requirement for providing non-medical homecare services, many of our Angels are Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) as well,” Welbaum said.

“I believe that there are a lot of people out there that could be a caregiver, but few have what it takes to be an Angel. They must possess the big heart, love, empathy, and compassion that cannot be trained. I’ve been truly blessed with the beautiful team we’ve built over the last four years. And with that, I genuinely believe it’s because God is great and always looks out for us!”

Simple Ways to Thank Local Nurses

Nurses have long been unsung heroes of the medical community. But that tide began to turn in 2020 as the world confronted the COVID-19 pandemic and realized just how invaluable nurses are to public health.

According to the American Nurses Association, nearly 400 nurses in the United States died as a result of COVID-19 within eight months of a pandemic being declared in America. Globally, data from the International Council of Nurses indicated that roughly 1,500 nurses lost their lives to COVID-19 by the end of October 2020. at data is sobering and serves as a reminder that nurses put their lives on the line each day they go to work. Such sacri ces are worthy of widespread support, and there are many ways ordinary citizens can thank nurses working in their communities.

• SUPPORT EFFORTS TO PROTECT NURSES. Despite widespread recognition of how vital they are to public health, nurses still may not have unbridled access to personal protective equipment (PPE). An ANA survey of nurses working in various health care settings conducted in fall 2020 found that 42 percent of nurses indicated they were still experiencing widespread or intermittent PwPE shortages. In fact, more than half of the 21,000-plus nurses surveyed reported that they were forced to re-use single-use PPE, a practice they said makes them feel unsafe. e public can do its part by urging local lawmakers to support legislation that increases domestic production of PPE so the brave men and women in the nursing profession can feel safe when doing their jobs.

• GIVE NURSES AND THEIR FAMILIES A NIGHT OFF FROM COOKING. Long shi s in stressful situations have taken a toll on nurses and their families. Neighbors can pitch in by o ering to cook and deliver meals or pay for takeout for nurses and their families. is simple gesture can provide a much-needed break for nurses and their spouses who have been stretched thin during the pandemic, and it’s a great way to remind nurses their heroic e orts are not going unnoticed.

• HELP OUT WITH CHORES. Before going to the grocery store, text or call a friend or neighbor in the nursing eld to see if he or she needs anything from the store. If nurses shop Online for their groceries, arrange to pick them up so nurses can spend more time relaxing at home with their families. During warm weather seasons, o er to mow the lawn or help with leaf pickup.

• OFFER DISCOUNTS TO NURSES IN YOUR COMMUNITY. Local business owners can do their part by o ering discounts to nurses and other health care professionals in their communities. A 10 percent discount on a restaurant bill or a nursing discount on a fresh bouquet of owers can li nurses’ spirits and reassure them that their communities are behind them.

Nurses have made immeasurable sacri ces throughout the pandemic. Communities can come together in various and o en simple ways to show nurses just how much those sacri ces are appreciated. 

HOW YOUR GARDEN

AFTER ENDURING MONTHS of a monochromatic Michigan winter, local gardeners begin to long for the day when color returns to their world. After what might seem like a very long wait, the days of returning to the sun and soil are fast approaching. The crop of people who are awaiting the 2021 gardening season may have grown as well.

The onset of the pandemic in 2020 actually led to an increase in gardening nationwide, with some states reporting increases of up to 50% in gardening-related retail sales over the same period in 2019. Even with the challenges that the Michigan Nursery and Landscape Association faced in early spring last year as they requested “essential” status from the state government, gardening as both a hobby and as a means of producing food at home became more popular in Michigan as well.

Adrian was among the communities that saw a rise in home gardeners,according to Jenny Ludman of Barrett’s Showplace Gardens.

“Last spring we saw a huge increase. It was one of our biggest seasons ever.” Ludman hopes that the enthusiasm they saw last season at the garden center will continue as the 2021 season begins, and she believes it will. “Hopefully people thought, wow that was fun and will want to grow vegetables and plants again.”

For those who intend to give gardening another try after a positive experience last season, or for those who are planning to see if they have the green thumb this season, Ludman suggests talking with the sta at the garden center, asking questions and providing information that will allow sta to guide each home gardener to make the choices that will lead to a successful experience.

Sharing information with sta about things like soil conditions, light and shade, size and layout of the space, and the varieties of plants that are of interest are all things that will help sta lead clients to solid decisions for their garden spaces.

Container gardens are very popular choices for both seasoned and beginning gardeners and come highly recommended as an option for planting a variety of plants and herbs. Raised beds are also recommended for a variety of plants and vegetables as both of these methods allow for the ability to better control the soil composition. A more refined level of control over the condition of the soil is especially important in areas where clay is dominant.

Soil conditions are important for vegetables in particular as the soil needs to be rich in nutrients. Ludman said that the most popular vegetables for planting locally are tomatoes and peppers, but clients also choose to plant cabbage, broccoli, onions, and beans. The most popular herbs for planting in the area are basil and dill among others.

For those interested in learning more about home gardening from the comfort of their homes, the MSU Extension is o ering a series of online gardening classes through the Tollgate Farm and Education Center. Their HomeGrown Gardening Series 2021 focuses on edibles. The session on April 10 will be Vegetable Gardening in Small Spaces. The May 8 session encourages younger gardeners to participate in Growing Fun with Kids. Sessions continue monthly through September and cost $10 per household per session. Visit the MSU Extension Tollgate Farm and Education Center page for more details.

Just as trends change in fashion and home décor so trends appear in spring plants. Barrett’s is preparing for the coming season by stocking a large number of the bubblegum supertunia. Ludman said that petunias are very popular in general, but this rich, deep pink variety is especially popular in Adrian because it is often spotted on the campus of Adrian College.

Hydrangeas are also a popular plant locally and, contrary to perception, are a plant that can be grown successfully in both light and shade. They come in

a variety of colors and sizes and bloom from July through September.

When it comes to home gardening success in general, Ludman said that appropriate watering is the key. Rather than simply dousing plants daily, she recommends using either a soaker hose, or setting a standard hose on a lower flow, then letting the hose run for an hour or so in order to more completely saturate the soil.

For gardeners who want to connect with other local gardeners, Ludman has created Barrett’s in Your Backyard, a Facebook group hosted by the Barrett’s Showplace Gardens Facebook page. Enthusiasts can share questions, pictures, successes, and challenges with fellow growers and with Barrett’s garden sta .

Perhaps it’s the thought of stepping out on to the patio to cut fresh basil or parsley for dinner, or maybe it’s the hope of gazing on swaths of colorful flowering plants placed perfectly throughout the yard, whatever the dream, gardening provides rewarding opportunities as individuals as those who undertake the endeavor. Consider giving growing a try this season.

POTENTIAL INDICATORS OF ROOF TROUBLE

With regard to home repairs, homeowners may be able to delay some projects until the weather permits or they find room in their budgets. But other areas, including the roof, may demand immediate action.

Few homeowners give the roofs of their homes much thought until a problem arises. But learning to recognize potential indicators of roof trouble can help homeowners prevent potentially drastic situations down the road.

Light: Homeowners with attics in their homes can inspect the ceilings inside the attic for signs of holes or leaks. Light peering through the top of the house indicates a hole or leak, as does stains or streaks on the ceiling.

Worn shingles: Shingles should lie flat against the roof, so any that appear to be buckling or turning up are damaged and in need of repair. A single damaged shingle does not require a full roof replacement, but inspect all the shingles nonetheless. Another indicator of shingle problems can be found when cleaning downspouts or gutters. If the gutters and downspouts contain lots of shingle granules, the roof may soon need to be replaced.

Moss: Moss on a rooftop may give a home character, but that added character is costly. Shady areas of a roof can be susceptible to the growth of moss and fungi because moisture can be trapped in such areas. If possible, remove moss or fungi from a roof with a sti brush or hire a professional to do the job instead. Moss may come back even after brushing it o , so homeowners should keep an eye on areas of their roofs that get little sunlight. In addition, trapped moisture can be very harmful to a roof, so it may be wise to exercise caution and have roofs with mold or fungi growths inspected.

Age: Another indicator of roof trouble may be the age of the roof. Even if there are no visible signs of damage, homeowners whose roofs have some years under their belt may want to consider replacing them. Asphalt shingle roofs typically have life expectancies of 20 to 25 years, while roofs installed over existing layers of shingles may need to be replaced after 20 years.

Recognizing minor roof damage before it escalates into a larger problem can save homeowners substantial amounts of money.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ANOTHER UNUSUAL SUMMER TRAVEL SEASON

By Kate Mitchell | Editor in Chief

It is impossible to think of an industry that hasn’t been impacted by COVID-19. The pandemic has been all encompassing, reaching into every facet of global life. But while the e ect of coronavirus has been felt everywhere, few industries have felt the illness’ sting like the travel industry.

The major shift hit close to home for some. Dawn Harke, of Horizon Travel and Cruises in Adrian, saw the impact of the pandemic on the industry first hand.

“When the virus first hit, it caused a flurry of activity,” Harke said. “I had several local high schools headed to Washington D.C. and Florida with their students. These trips involved several months of detailed planning with bus companies, restaurants and hotels which all had to be canceled and refunded. Aside from the large groups there were several individual tours and cruises which needed to be refunded as well. This whole refund process took several months to get everything done.”

A year in, things are still disrupted. Cruises are shut

down, there are a patchwork of precautions in place around the country that can make planning tricky and most international borders are closed to American tourists. But as vaccines become more available, things are looking up.

“There has been an uptick in travel as people see a light at the end of the tunnel, per say,” Angela Turner of Adrian’s Global Luxe Ventures said. While things may be shifting back to normal, there is a catch. “With the vaccines becoming available there are more guidelines put into place for travel.”

With those caveats in place and summer vacation season rapidly approaching, is summer 2021 shaping up to be another lost season? Not necessarily, even though travel still may look di erent in 2021 than it did in 2019.

“As there are a lot of destinations still not open for travelers, the biggest shift is those going to the Carribean and Central America,” Turner said. “Because of spring break and people wanting to escape the winter weather, this is on trend for this time of year. Most travel for the other destinations have been booked a year or two out with hope that the travel

restrictions have been lifted by then.”

Domestic destinations have been a focus recently, too. While the CDC is still advising against unnecessary travel, state borders have remained open and, while local precautions and rules vary, plenty has reopened around the country.

“Popular destinations during the pandemic have been Florida, particularly Orlando, Tampa and the Keys,” Harke said. “Las Vegas, and many National Parks stays have been popular destinations as well ... due to open spaces.”

For those who are looking to plan a getaway but want to remain cautious, there are some things you can do from the start to keep yourself and your loved ones safe.

“Many [companies in the travel industry] have gone above and beyond with keeping up with social distancing protocols and cleaning,” Turner said. “Also, some do require you take a COVID-19 test once you have reached your hotel room. Once you have gotten the negative test you will be free to roam around the resort and destination.

“There are steps to clean luggage before they are placed into your room and multiple sanitization stations and additional sta o ering hand sanitization. Many have even implemented a morning temperature check and have sanitization mists before entering the location.”

While Turner only recommends people travel when they feel comfortable, there are plenty of things to do to make yourself more comfortable when getting out of town. If avoiding travel by plane is the only thing keeping you from going on a trip this year, there’s plenty to be done within a day’s drive of Adrian that people may not know about.

“Tennessee, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania all o er a variety of experiences,” Harke said. “Working with a local agency helps widen your search and easily reduces a person’s research time with just one phone call.”

Travel agents can make all the di erence in times like these, especially if more widely known tourism destinations are o the list for any variety of reasons. They can also adjust plans as needed when unexpected travel restrictions or illnesses pop up. Experts are a resource when trying to turn an atypical summer into one filled with adventures to

remember.

“There is actually a lot more than people realize within a 12 hour drive from here,” Turner said. “I always say it is easier to pick the location once you agree on the vibe you are looking for. Did you know you could stay at a castle in Kentucky? Or experience Carribean blue waters by going to Torch Lake? There are even multiple wine trails like the scenic ones we find in northern Michigan (they even have a winery out on an island).”

As people hit the road this summer, there is plenty to do to prepare to travel as safely as possible. While stocking up on hand sanitizer and bringing plenty of masks and other protection equipment may seem obvious, there are things travelers may not think about to take into consideration, too.

“Always look into not only the protocols but in the recent reviews of the place you are staying at or flight service you are using,” Turner recommends. “As people are starting to travel more, flights will have more passengers…. Look into traveling on flight times that are not popular.”

There are tips she has for once travelers have reached their destination, too. Things like avoiding the first rental car transport to arrive at the airport after flights have arrived as more people will be fighting to get on board. Waiting for the next bus could mean you have more space while heading to your next destination. Next Page...

Though things are getting back to normal, or as close to normal as we can expect right now, Turner and Harke both expect many of the changes coming to the industry now to stick around for a while.

“Just like 9/11 caused changes to how we travel, this will do the same,” Harke said. “The travel industry must change in order for the public to feel safe to travel again. Negative COVID-19 tests and vaccination passports will probably be required for international travel. Going forward, a cruise will be one of the cleanest and safest means of seeing the world. The cruise industry has worked with the CDC to devise a list of 73 safety protocols in order to begin sailing again.”

But these changes may not be a bad thing.

“I believe it will be for the better,” Turner said. “There will be more awareness when traveling and a higher level of service to be expected. Also, I believe the shift of smaller tours and private tours will continue on as people get a taste for it.”

As the travel industry and travelers themselves begin to adjust to the constantly shifting new reality, being mindful of the people around you when on vacation during this unusual time can make the experience a positive one for all.

“Having traveled [in March,] I see people being very respectful of one another. Using their masks, staying 6 feet apart, while trying to enjoy life as we once knew it,” Harke said. “It’s all about respecting your fellow traveler. Everyone wants to get back to normal as soon as possible but everyone has their own opinions on what it means to be safe.”

TIPS FOR TRIP PLANNING

Looking to get out of town without leaving your COVID-19 comfort zone? Use some of these tips when planning your trip.

1. Drive or take a train instead of flying. Driving limits your contact with those outside your travel companions, and trains have windows that you can open to help better circulate air.

2. Check coronavirus precautions. Hotels, airlines, and activities like museums all have di erent safety measures in place. Check what your destination is doing to keep you safe by looking at websites, Facebook pages, and online reviews to see what level of precautions you’re comfortable with.

CDC TRAVEL GUIDELINES

According to the CDC: Travel increases your chance of spreading and getting COVID-19. Delay travel and stay home to protect yourself and others from COVID-19, even if you are vaccinated.

If you must travel, take steps to protect yourself and others:

If you are eligible, get fully vaccinated for COVID-19. Before you travel, get tested with a viral test 1-3 days before your trip.

Wear a mask over your nose and mouth when in public. Avoid crowds and stay at least 6 feet/2 meters (about 2 arm lengths) from anyone who did not travel with you.

Get tested 3-5 days after your trip and stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel, even if your test is negative. If you don’t get tested, stay home and self-quarantine for 10 days after travel.

Follow all state and local recommendations or requirements after travel.

3. Be flexible and plan ahead. Build in extra time so you don’t need to take crowded public transport. Make sure you buy tickets for activities in advance, as many places are limiting capacity and utilizing things like timed entry to encourage social distancing.

4. Be prepared. Bring plenty of hand sanitizer and masks with you, just in case. You don’t want to run out of coronavirus supplies in a place you don’t know.

Techniques to revitalize

A Lawn After A Winter

PRISTINE, SNOW-COVERED LANDSCAPES

PRISTINE, SNOW-COVERED LANDSCAPES can be wonders to behold. While that blanket of white is idyllic, a lawn’s delicate blades may be paying a hefty price beneath the cold, heavy piles of snow.

Snow plows push salt and sand up on the grass while subterranean animals like mice and moles dig burrows beneath piles of snow as they try to find food and stay warm. Such conditions are not favorable for thriving landscapes. When the spring thaw arrives, lawns may be in dire need of some TLC. The following techniques can mitigate winter-related lawn damage.

• Clear out debris. Remove any scattered leaves, branches and other debris that has been strewn across the property due to storms or snow-laden trees. This will give you a clean canvas to work on.

• De-thatch the lawn. Heavy snow can compress the grass and cause some of it to die o . Dethatching helps remove dead grass blades and separate any matting. This enables water, nutrients and air to reach the lawn’s roots more e ectively. Thinning out old organic matter also helps encourage new growth.

• Aerate the soil. Coupled with dethatching, aeration involves loosening the soil or poking holes to allow nutrients to move

freely to the roots.

• Kill weeds before they spread. Weeds may be the first to start growing when the weather begins to warm. Address them promptly by manually pulling them or applying an herbicide.

• Overseed the lawn. Chances are there are some bare spots that have formed over the winter. Overseeding can help to fill in the lawn. Make sure that frosts are largely a thing of the past and soil temperature is around 50 F to 60 F before seeding. Water daily until grass fills in.

• Apply nutrients. Fertilizer and compost can restore nutrients to the lawn that may have been used up over winter. A soil test at a nearby horticultural center can tell you which nutrients are needed, according to the Chemistry Cachet, a guide to using chemistry secrets for healthy living, beauty, cleaning, and gardening.

Thee Old Mill is your one-stop-shop for all your lawn and landscape needs. We carry a full line of bulk and bagged products like, natural hardwood and colored mulch. Topsoil, compost, stone, and sand are just a few of the bulk products we carry and can deliver. We also have the best prices on grass seed, fertilizers and weed killers. We also have a full line of lake and pond weed treatments and dyes.

Lawns can be restored to their pre-winter glory after some sweat equity and about five to six weeks of consistent sunshine and warm weather.
