Columbus says it can have no part in easement decisionsby Leah Justice

Local residents can now see ex-actly where the new Polk County

Republican Headquarters building will be situated.

Construction on the steel frame began a couple of weeks ago with the walls and roof beginning last week.

The general contractor for the project is Myron Yoder of Green Creek.

Polk Republican officials had asked the Town of Columbus to step in and help with ensuring that the side of the new building along an easement is not used for general parking.

M• Saluda forum(Continued from page 1)

The questions asked candidates to comment on issues ranging from the city’s recent 10-cent tax increase to partnering with the county and towns to form a water authority.Tax increase

All candidates said they do not support the recent tax increase, with both incumbents saying they voted against it. Cass said she would not have supported the tax increase either.

“Commissioners did support the tax rate but I did not,” John Morgan said. “I wanted to negoti-ate a lower rate then take a look at it next year.”

John Morgan added that the cost of living in Saluda is going to get so high the city will start losing people. He suggested the city look into a sales tax to help increase revenue.

“To put on 10 cents right now in a bad economy was a bad idea,” John Morgan said. “We’re adding to our fund balance but we need

to be careful how vigorously we go after that.”

Leon Morgan said he did not vote for the tax increase either.

“I felt like it was too much,” Leon Morgan said. “It was truly a burden on some people. Some people got a sizeable increase.”

Cass said she wouldn’t have voted for the tax increase either.

“I think it was too much at one time,” Cass said. “I just think when people got their bill nobody quite understood it. When you see your bill go up 20 percent… (the city) needs to communicate that better.”

Cass said she thinks the city should look at smart growth and lower taxes. She suggested the city create a community forum to ask residents what businesses Saluda needs, such as along Ozone Drive.

tuesday, novemBer 1, 2011 tryon daily Bulletin / the World’s smallest daily neWspaper page 3


“We’ve got to have more peo-ple in town to pay taxes,” Cass said. “We need all the revenue we can get.”Tourism

The next question came from the audience and asked candidates how they feel tourism affects Saluda.

All candidates said tourism is positive for Saluda; Leon Morgan said every time there is an art show sales go up. Cass said tourism equals economic development. She said if a train came through and dumped people in Saluda, “we’d find a way to handle it.”

John Morgan said tourism is very important to Saluda and men-tioned the rails to trails effort as well, saying Saluda needs to plan ahead for that possibility.Comunicating with residents

Another audience question related to communication. One resident said many Saluda resi-

dents feel it’s a challenge to know what’s going on. The website was mentioned, saying it lacks information such as time and place of meetings. Residents who attend meetings sit through a long treasurer’s report and have no idea what is being reviewed, one resident said.

“That is really my main cam-paign platform,” said Cass. “The website needs to be updated; Leon [Morgan] nor [commis-sioner] George [Sweet’s] bios are even on there.”

Cass said she thinks the city needs a newsletter that goes out once a month with the water bill that directs residents to the web-site for information. The website should have agendas, minutes and ordinances, Cass said.

“If you go to a city council meeting, you don’t know the agenda until you get there,” she said. “Everybody needs to be informed.”

John Morgan said he’s advo-cated for an overhead projector for the meetings, but the city

doesn’t have the money right now. Nor does the city have the manpower for a newsletter or to update the website, he said. John Morgan said the city needs an email blast and said if some-one wants to come forward to volunteer to update the website or produce a newsletter, the city would welcome that.

Leon Morgan said informing residents of Saluda has been a problem as long as he’s lived there. He said emails could be done and even people that come to meetings miss some things that go on.

“I don’t know what the so-lution is,” Leon Morgan said. “Maybe sending out a letter ev-ery month is the answer, but it’s going to cost $1 a copy if we’re lucky. The problem is having the employee time to do it.”Police services

One written question asked candidates what they thought about giving Polk County money annu-ally to provide police services.

John Morgan said he recently spoke with Polk County Sheriff Donald Hill about the county tak-ing over law enforcement because that’s been a question of his all along.

“If we’re going to go there it would have to be a community de-cision,” John Morgan said. “What I’m hearing now is we want to maintain our community police. It would be cheaper but is it better in the long run?”

Leon Morgan said it’s nice to be able to call the police department when there is a problem.

“They’re here in two minutes,” Leon Morgan said. “If it’s Polk County, they aren’t going to be here that quick.”

He said a third of the police department money goes to other things than the officers’ salaries and the city would be paying that to Polk County, too. He also said that would need to be a decision from the residents of Saluda, not the board of commissioners.

Cass said she’s spoken to the county manager and to fund four sheriff deputies and cars would cost the same as what the Saluda Police Department costs. She said

for the security alone she is in favor of keeping the police department but suggested officers be more visible in the public and visit the school.Local option sales tax

One audience member asked candidates if the city received a local option sales tax would council consider giving a tax break on property taxes since residents would also pay that sales tax. The question also asked whether can-didates would consider a discount on taxes, such as the county offers, for paying taxes early.

All candidates said those op-tions could be considered. John Morgan said he has suggested the local option sales tax in the form of a hospitality tax because of the benefits it has brought the City of Landrum. He said Landrum’s hospitality tax puts more than $100,000 in its coffers.

“With our tourist trade we could be every bit taken care of,” said John Morgan. “I suspect in the future we see that as a vehicle to keep our property taxes in check.”Joint water authority

A written question asked can-didates their thoughts on creating a water authority with the county and towns.

Leon Morgan said Saluda would need to look at it long and hard, because if Saluda goes into an authority it will have to assume the others’ debt.

“Do we want to be responsible for that?” asked Leon Morgan.

He said he doesn’t think it’s good for Saluda but would con-sider purchasing water from the county authority.

John Morgan said Tryon has $4.5 million in debt on water and Columbus has debt for sewer. He mentioned the Tuckaseigee Water and Sewer Authority, with which Polk County and its towns have met to discuss how they created their authority. John Morgan said Tuckaseigee was forced into an authority because the state con-demned their systems and they received an $8 million grant to form the authority.

Oct. 20 and announced that the town can have no part of a private property issue. The town and lo-cal Republican officials discussed how the town could help over the past few months with the last re-quest being if the town could des-ignate the easement as a fire lane.

Columbus Mayor Eric Mc-Intyre said the town looked into state code and spoke with the fire chief and it’s “just not possible” for the town to designate the area a fire lane.

“The town does not need to be a referee in this matter,” McIntyre said.

Council directed town man-ager Jonathan Kanipe to send local businesses a letter saying

the parking issue is something private property owners should work out.

The new building is expected to take three months to construct, weather permitting. The building is made of steel, but will have simi-lar exteriors to other new buildings in Columbus.

The new building is located on Peake Street in Columbus where the former Republican headquar-ters was torn down. The former building suffered a roof collapse in December 2009 and was demol-ished last year. The new building is on the same lot, but shifted to the right and front to allow for parking in the rear. Emergency, garbage and supply vehicles will enter to the left of the building instead of from the right side, which was the former rear entrance.

John Morgan added that he has approached the county about bid-ding to sell Saluda water.

Cass said she thinks Saluda needs to work with the county and towns but does not know details about the debt. She said she’s always lived in places with water authorities, but if there’s $4.5 million of debt that Saluda doesn’t want to be a part of then she wouldn’t want to join but still wants to work with them.Polk ordinance restrictions

One question asked candi-dates’ thoughts on Polk County’s ordinance that restricts Saluda township properties above $1,650 ft. in elevation to single family residences.

All candidates seemed inter-ested in looking into gaining extra-territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) to be able to zone the township areas that cannot have businesses because of the county’s ordinance or looking into annexation to aid those areas.Free water benefits

Another question expressed concern about non-profits and some residents who have served Saluda receiving some water for free.

John Morgan said if the city is

going to take that away it needs to be a community decision.

Non-profits, such as churches, the fire department and the senior center, as well as some residents, have been awarded a certain amount of free water per month.

“It could be very polarizing in town and I don’t want to see that happen,” John Morgan said.

Leon Morgan said he thinks it would be in bad taste if this board took something away that was promised to them. He also said that would have to be a com-munity decision and mentioned that it doesn’t cost the city much money per year; he suspected $500 in actual water costs.

Cass said the issue may be more polarizing that some people are getting free water in Saluda. She said she’d like to see how much it would cost churches if they had to pay. She said she’d rather give service members a stipend every month than have it come from free water.

Early voting in Polk County ends this Saturday and can be done at the Polk County Board of Election’s Office in Columbus between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. through Friday. On Saturday, the office is open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The general election will be next Tuesday, Nov. 8.

THE AWAKENING of TURTLE ISLAND:PORTRAITS ofNATIVE AMERICANSby Tracey Schmidt

Landrum store opens today

by Samantha Hurst

Partners Keith Harmon, Phil-lip Maynard and Adele McAuley had the opportunity to meet with Princess Diana’s brother, Charles Spencer, when they purchased a portion of the Althorp collection - replicas of furniture pieces from Princes Diana’s estate.

“You’re actually purchasing a piece of history when you purchase this furniture,” Harmon said.

The Althorp Collection from Theodore Alexander includes hand-crafted replicas such as an ornately carved mirror of more than 6 feet in height. Next to that sits a finely polished dining table of burl walnut. There are also several secretary desks and beautifully polished side tables.

“Virtually the only machines that touch it is when the wood is cut,” Maynard said. “Everything else is intricately carved by hand.”

Pieces in the Althorp collec-

tion are almost exclusively made from walnut. They also had to be approved, according to Harmon, by the Princess Diana estate before being available for market. The partners said they believe customers interested in and able to purchase these pieces will notice the quality of the craftsmanship.

“Generations of planning has had to go into the creation of this

furniture,” Maynard said. “This furniture doesn’t hit the yard

sale and it doesn’t hit the thrift store; these pieces become heirlooms.”

Price points for the furniture range from $1,300 for a wormy chestnut farm table to $17,000 for a 500-pound dining/conference table. The showroom plans to provide this furniture at liquidated prices around 40 percent off.

The showroom, inside the old Blockbuster building in front of Bi-Lo, will also soon carry EJ Victor, Ralph Lauren and Lloyd Buxton fine furnishings, along with John Richards lamps and accessories.

The showroom opens today, Tuesday, Nov. 1.

The BeauTy of auTumn Fall, or autumn, is the third of four seasons that we experience in a calendar year. The first day of fall coincides with the autumnal equinox, when the sun is directly over the equator in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemi-sphere, the autumnal equinox occurs around September 23, and in the Southern Hemisphere, it occurs around March 21. For this reason, au-tumn in the Northern Hemisphere falls in the months of September, October, November, and sometimes early December. In the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn months are just the opposite; they occur late March through early June. The reason for the difference is due to

the distance from the sun that each hemisphere is located. The farther away from the sun, the cooler and shorter the days will become. Fall is a very pleasant time of year. The temperatures are cooler than summer, but they are not cold. Many activities occur at this time because of the nice weather. Oktoberfest is celebrated in many parts of the world, and Thanksgiving is celebrated in November in the United States. The American football season begins in early fall, as well as many other sport seasons. Outdoor activi-ties, such as hay rides and camp fires, are popular. Animals begin to gather food in the fall and make preparations for the winter months. Birds begin to migrate south for the winter, and farmers harvest their crops. The scenery changes as the leaves turn vivid colors of orange and red before they (and acorns) fall off the trees.

The human Tongue

a Special Thank You To all our SponSorS!

The human tongue is responsible for three major func-tions: the sense of taste, to aid in speech, and to help digest food. The tongue is comprised mainly of muscle cells, along with glands, fatty tissue, and sensory cells (taste buds). The tongue’s roll in digestion is the delivery of food into the esophagus; when you swallow it helps to push the food down. To aid in speech, the tongue touches different parts of the mouth, such as the teeth, or the roof of the mouth, to create different sounds. The sense of taste allows us to enjoy, or to stay away from, certain foods. The tongue has tiny receptors in it called taste buds. These taste buds allow us to sense the five types of taste: sweet, sour (or acid), bitter, salty, and the recently discovered umami (found mainly in Japanese cuisine). It has long been theorized that certain areas of the tongue are responsible for tasting different things. Scientists have now discovered that this is not entirely true. Certain areas of the tongue are better at sensing different tastes, but all

taste buds can sense the five types of taste. The tip of the tongue is best at tasting sweets. The sides of our tongue are good at tasting sour things, such as lemons. The base of the tongue is best at tasting bit-ter foods, and salt is best tasted right behind the tip, or just beyond the sweet taste buds. Umami, which is the taste of amino acids, or glutamate, has not been placed on the taste map, since it is newly discov-ered. As time goes by, taste buds diminish in number; hence, a younger person has a stronger sense of taste than an elderly person. This is most likely the reason that many adults enjoy things with stronger tastes, such as coffee, than children who prefer sweets do.

The Island of Madagascar The African Island of Madagascar, located in the Indian Ocean, is approximately 250 miles away from the African mainland. The country closest to the island is Mozambique and the two countries are separated by a body of water in the Indian Ocean known as the Mozambique Channel. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world, measur-ing almost 1,000 miles in length and 350 miles wide at its widest point. The Capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo. The Republic of Madagascar also includes several smaller, adjacent islands. The island has several different climate zones which include the tropical rains of the northwest, the dry southern area, and wet and hot western area. The island has mountains, ridges, and valleys that separate these different areas. The tallest moun-tain found in Madagascar is Mount Maromokotro, which is 9,436 feet above sea level. The people of Madagascar are considered to be members of the African community, but their origins are more closely related to Indonesia. They are referred to as being Mala-gasy--a name that refers to both the people and the native language. The other official language is French. Madagascar’s primary industry is farming; rice is the primary food staple. Vanilla and coffee are produced for export; Madagascar produces more vanilla than any other country in the world. Today, Madagascar is a multi-party republic, but it was at one time a French territory. Perhaps the most famous inhabitants of Madagascar are not people, but the animals that are native to the island. The lemurs of Madagascar are small, tree-dwelling primates that are not found naturally in any other habitat in the world. Another animal, found only on the Island of Madagascar, is the fossa. The fossa is a meat-eating animal, much like a large cat. It is one of the lemur’s natural enemies. Some of the oldest dinosaur fossils in the world have been found on Madagascar.

Money, or currency, is something that is used as a medium of exchange. Over the centuries, money has come in all different shapes and sizes. In the United States today, the dollar is the primary form of currency in circulation. Until recent decades, most types of monies have almost always been made from, or backed by, a precious metal. This means that the coins themselves have been made from silver or gold, or that there were precious metals in a reserve to back up the worth of the money. In 1900, the United States Government passed the Gold Standard Act. For every paper dollar that existed, a certain amount of gold was kept in storage by the U.S. Government. In 1933, the Unit-ed States began moving away from the gold standard, because it restricted the number of dollars that could be produced. Today’s dollars, like most currencies, are called “fiat money” which means they are backed by people’s faith in government and not metals. Every country uses some form of currency. Many countries have dropped their own form of currency in favor of using the American dollar. This is known as dollarization. In Europe, the primary form of currency in 16 major countries since 1999 is the euro. The United Kingdom still uses the pound system. Canada and Australia call their currencies a dollar like the United States, but they are separate from the U.S. system. Other coun-tries have different names for their money. Brazil has the real; Mexico has the peso; China has the yuan; Japan has the yen; Russia has the ruble; and South Africa has the rand.Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.

The State Capitals

A Special Thank You To All Our Sponsors!

A capital is a city that is the official seat of government for a political entity, such as a state or nation. The capital of the United States is the Federal territory of Washington, D.C. The U.S. Government congregates here to make all the laws and decisions of the Country. Each of the 50 states also has a capital city which is usually a large, prominent city in the state. Almost always the state government offices, including the courts, are located in the capital city. Museums, zoos, and exhibitions are also very common in these cities. Each capital city has a capitol building where statewide business is conducted. These buildings are often historical landmarks. Some city capitals are older than the actual state they repre-sent. Santa Fe, New Mexico, was established as a capital for a colony of Spanish settlers in 1610 and has remained New Mexico’s capital for most of its history. Boston has been the capital of the Massachusetts area continuously since 1630, making it the longest running capital in the Country. Okla-homa City, Oklahoma, is the youngest state capital, being established in 1910. The capital of Vermont, Montpelier, is the smallest state capital in the nation. The largest state capi-tal by population is Phoenix, Arizona, while the largest in size is Juneau, Alaska. Atlanta, Georgia, is the largest capital in terms of metropolitan area.

John Mather Siegel Jr.

John Mather Siegel Jr., 42, of Huntsville, Ala., died Saturday, Oct. 22, 2011 following a long illness.

He was born in Decatur, Ga., and graduated with highest hon-ors from Georgia Tech with a Ph.D. in biomechanical engineer-ing in 1994. He was the creator and CEO of Stockworm Inc.; and, in spite of his painful and de-bilitating illness, he worked full time as a biomedical researcher at SAIC until shortly before his death.

His professional accomplish-ments were numerous and im-pressive, including being an expert in 13 computer languages and having four patents; but he will be remembered best for his passionate love of family and friends, his ability to facilitate creative teamwork and his infec-tious smile and sense of humor.

John is survived by his wife of 22 years, Shannon; two daugh-ters, Katherine Ansley, age 15, and Ivey Elizabeth, age 9; father, John Mather Siegel of Clayton, Ga.; mother, Dr. Louise Little Rezac of Tryon; sister, Melissa Albuquerque, her husband, Mi-chael, and their children, David, age 11, and Lauren, age 7 of Atlanta, Ga.

A memorial service was held on Oct. 26 at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Huntsville.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made in John’s name to the HudsonAlpha Institute, Attn: Development Office, 601 Genome Way, Huntsville, Ala. 35806.

Polk County Recreation Soccer, grades 8-12, ended its 2011 season Oct. 22 at Harmon Field. The group consisted of 35 participants, which divided into two teams for Saturday games. The kids enjoyed a pizza party after their last game. The team’s motto was, “Peace, Love & Soccer,” which was written on all the T-shirts. Bennett King is the coach. (photo by Karen Ray)

If it could go wrong, it went wrong for Landrum football on Friday night.

Murphy’s Law may sound cliché, but the perfect storm came together on Friday night to hinder Landrum as Christ Church won the II-1A Region Championship 44-0.

Landrum’s (8-2) senior tail-back Cole McDowell, who had an ankle injury in Thursday’s prac-tice, didn’t play on Friday and the Cavaliers (9-1) were able to key in on quarterback Brandon Cannon.The two form a dangerous rushing tandem and McDowell’s absence had a painful effect on Friday.

Cardinals drop region championship For the Cardinals, it was a hin-drance to the ground game, but you mix that in with the rain and you have the perfect storm.

McDowell’s absence hindered the ground attack and the rain hindered the passing attack, open-ing the door for Landrum’s of-fense to be held in check for the f i rs t t ime th is season. “The bottom line is they beat us up front,” Landrum coach Russell Mahaffey said. “Their offensive and defensive lines did a great job tonight.”

The Christ Church defense held Cannon to just 32 yards on the ground and 84 yards passing. On

the flip side Hunter Townes threw for 155 yards and three touchdowns and Blake Navarro ran for 108 yards and two touchdowns.

by Daniel Hecht

On paper, it appeared that this would turn out to be a much closer game. Both teams came into Friday night’s contest with identical records, 8-2 overall and 5-1 in the WHC.

The sole conference defeat for both teams had come at the hands of Mitchell, with both teams losing to the Mountaineers by a single point. Even the team mascots, the Wol-verines and the Bearcats, are really nothing more than different names for the same animal.

Football games, however, are not played on paper, but rather, a chunk of real estate 120 yards long by 53-1/3 yards wide. And Friday night, on the field of play at the Little Big House, the visitors from Hender-sonville left no question as to which team deserved the title of Western Highlands Conference champs, as the Bearcats thoroughly dominated the Polk County Wolverines.

“I felt like they outplayed us, outhit us and outcoached us – I’m man enough to admit it,” said Polk Head Coach Bruce Ollis following the 37-12 humbling that denied the Wolverines a third straight WHC championship. “We knew we were going to have to play about as well as we could play to beat them, and we didn’t – not by a long shot, we didn’t.”

The Bearcats jumped out to the early lead, as QB Grant Rivers con-nected with Mahcallum Duckett for a 25 TD strike midway through the first quarter.

Though Polk was able to answer the bell, with QB Alec Philpott sneaking into the end zone late in the quarter, the balance of the first half was all Bearcats, as Hendersonville notched three touchdowns in the span of eight minutes to make it 28-6 at the intermission.

Much of the hometown crowd, surprisingly small given the signifi-

cance of the contest, made their way to the exits, leaving the teams to play out the mostly uneventful second half in an almost surreal stillness.

“I was very disappointed with the lack of fan support we had,” said Ollis. “I thought that our seniors de-served better, and our football team deserved better.”

The loss was a disappointing end to an otherwise outstanding regular season, but Ollis promised that the Wolverines would redeem them-selves as they open the state playoffs at home this week against Owen.

“We’re going to be PIGs this week – we’re going to play with Pride, Intensity and Guts,” said Ollis. “I’ll assure you that you’re going to see a better performance out of our football team this Friday night – I will guarantee it.”

Wolverines mauled by Bearcats 37-12 in regular season finale

coach Don Frost said, “and we played them pretty good.”

The Cardinals lost two fumbles, had a blocked punt and had a snap sail over Cannon’s head, which

resulted in touchdowns. The primary focus for Mahaffey

and the Cardinals next week during practice will be blocking. Mahaffey said he wasn’t sure if they’d get a home playoff game or not, but that they’d “work hard to get better up front” in any case.

Our family’s trip through the treacherous corn maze

Grassroots

by Chris Jakubowicz

It was a cool dark night and the fami ly was bun-dled up beyond recognition. We had stocking hats, gloves, jackets zipped up to our chins and flashlights.

No, we were not coming to-gether as a family and robbing a store. We were doing some-thing far more serious, and far more brave; embarking on a mission never before attempt-ed by the Jakubowicz family. We were attempting to go through Strawberry Hill’s corn maze ... at night.

Excitement was at an all time high as I handed over my money. We received a flag attached to a long pipe to carry with us.

“In case you get lost, wave the flag in the air and our spotters can come get you,” said the chipper girl taking my money. “Return the flag when you’re done so that we know you made it out.”

If we make it out? If we get lost? What have I gotten myself into? After all, I just drank a big cup of tea and may have to use the facilities here soon. This corn maze can't last too long.

We entered with smiles on our faces, our visible breath coming out of our mouths and flashes from the camera as we snapped pictures to remember the night.

Flashlights came on, and we were cranked up to full Dollar General battery power. We ap-

proached the entrance and stared at the map of the maze posted in front of us. “Gee, that looks a little big, and confusing,” and, “wow, look at all those bends and dead ends.” “That’s ok, who cares,” we thought. “It’s only a maze.” Mommy and Daddy are smart and kids are excited.

Upon entering we chose to take a right over a left. Ok, looks good. Turned out this would be the first good deci-sion we make.

T h e f i r s t good decision we made for the next hour of cockamamy dead ends and looping turns. Step af-ter glorious step, turn after turn, in hopes of moving through the perilous maze, we joked and had fun every bit of the way.

After a while, we realized a tremendous truth. We had gotten absolutely nowhere. One hour into it, and we hadn’t made it past the starting point. I was starting to feel the effects of the glass of tea from dinner.

We decided to humble our-selves and studied the map on the board a bit further.

We huddled together like a football team coming up with a game-winning hail mary. We make an alternate game plan and found a path that we “thought” has not been used. The giddiness

had officially worn off. I pulled out a few pieces of candy for the kids to keep spirits up. I, in turn, was officially the best Daddy ever for having done this.

We started to smell blood as our plan of keeping to the right seemed to be working. The en-trance was getting further away, and the corn was growing taller.

All of the sudden, the inevita-ble happened. A flashlight died and I came to the rescue with the flashlight in reserve that I had kept in my

pocket. It pays to be a planner. It doesn’t pay to go to corn mazes in the dark with Dollar General batteries.

We crossed a bridge that sig-naled to us that we have actually gotten somewhere. We crossed the bridge very relieved and excited, thinking that we had started to crack the maze from Halloween Hell.

Upon descending from the bridge we were given a special gift; another posting of the map. Older and wiser, we all stopped to study the map in detail. Four flashlights shone on the map so we could make a game plan for our next level of adventure.

We came up with another “stay to the left” plan that we re-ally thought was going to work.

To be honest, my wife came up with the plan, I just went along with it. I was totally, utterly, and completely lost.

“Stick to the left,” we kept telling ourselves. The lights from the entrance grew stronger as did the music. The country music played over the loud speakers could well have been angels from heaven itself as we neared the finish line.

A few more turns and we were home free. Funny thing - no one was there waiting to cheer us on. One would think that for all of our turmoil, they would had a welcoming committee there to greet us, shake our hand, maybe even high five us. At least give us some hot cocoa or something. No, it was just the four of us, and the country music from heaven in the background.

We instead celebrated, just the four of us. The kids hailed Mommy as “genius” as I lagged behind with flag pole in hand, still wondering how she figured it out. We turned off our flash-lights, turned in our flag, and, of course, made plans to do it again next year.

and promoting plein air painting, TAPAS is for connecting with painting companions and to pro-vide opportunities to paint at area outdoor locations.

The group also promotes com-munity awareness of plein-air painting through exhibits and the organization of other painting

events. There are no membership costs

or dues for TAPAS group participa-tion but participants are asked to bring their own supplies.
