Before East Fork StatePark hosts next year’s US-Rowing Club National Cham-pionships, theClermontCoun-ty park is getting a new beachhouse, better camp sites, newdocks, bleachers for specta-tors and an improved accessroad to Harsha Lake.

Besides improving thepark experience for visitors,the project is expected to pro-vide an economic boost to thecounty, supporters say.

“The excitement our part-ners in the Clermont Countycommunity have shown hasled to an outstanding projectforall thevisitors toEastForkStatePark,especially therow-ing community,” said JamesZehringer, director of theOhio Department of NaturalResources. “To build a facilitythat creates a better experi-ence for our visitors, whilealso providing an opportunityfor our partners to secure fu-ture events that will benefitlocal businesses,was simply aproject we could not pass up.”

The July 2015 USRowingClub National Championshipsrepresents one of the largestsummer regattas in the U.S.It’s expected to draw about1,800 athletes over five days.

Zehringer announced EastFork State Park projects to befunded through Gov. JohnKasich’s recent capital billduringaMay16appearanceatHarsha Lake’s Matt MaupinWelcome Pavilion. As a back-drop to the gathering of stateand local officials, visitorsfromabout15 statespracticedon the lake for the recentMid-west Youth Rowing Champi-onships.

No dollar figure was givenfor the upgrades, which alsowill include indoor and out-door showers at the soon-to-be-built beach house. Howev-er, supporters estimated all ofthe planned the improve-ments will cost about $1 mil-lion,withmostof that spentonthe new beach house.

Along with the state-fund-ed upgrades, attorney PaulSchmid, head coach for Cler-mont Crew,whichwill co-hostthe USRowing Club NationalChampionships with USRow-ing, also announced the estab-lishment of a foundation tocontinue improving the ven-ue.

The Clear Mountain WaterSports Development Associa-tion, formed with the supportof the Clermont Conventionand Visitors Bureau, will pro-vide funding to transform thelake and adjacent groundsinto “a state of the art venuefor water sports,” Schmidsaid.

“We want to maximizetheuseof thevenue for allusers, not just a narrowgroup,” he said. “It’s 2,000meters that can be usedfor canoeing and kayak-ing and paddle boardingand other water sports.

Schmid said Lake Har-sha is especially popularwith rowersbecause of itsdepth and size, its centrallocation in theU.S.andthe

fact that it’s free of cur-rent.

“Rowing races, even atthe high school level, canbe won or lost by literallyfeet or inches,” Schmidsaid. “If there’s a currentin one lane that’s differentfrom another lane, it canhamper results. High lev-el competitors love tocompete here because ofthe conditions of the wa-ter.”

The Ohio De-partment of Natural Re-sources also will improvethe access road leading toHarsha Lake and updatetrail signs to enhancesafety. Improvements al-ready have started at thecampgrounds, and bidsare expected to be soughtfor the beach house in a

month or so.The upgrades at East

Fork State Park are partof $88.5 million in im-provements included inOhio’smost recent capitalbudget.

Mark Calitri, execu-tive director of the Cler-mont County Conventionand Visitors Bureau, saidthe state’s investmentwillhelp the community“build on themomentum”of next summer’sUSRow-

ing Club National Cham-pionships.

“A rowing event of thisscope creates a strongeconomic ripple effectthrough our entire com-munity, and we’re confi-dent that future projectscouldattractmoreregion-al and national events tothe park,” Calitri said.

As Jesse Honaker sitsin a classroomreading hisbook, he comes across awordhedoesn’t know.ButJesse isn’t flustered orembarrassed, he’s calmand works through it.

That’s because thesixth-grader has Lottie byhis side. She’s not a teach-er or an educational aide –Lottie is one ofmany dogsthat regularlyvisit LocustCorner Elementary.

Kathy Wilson, theschool’s physical educa-tion teacher, began thereading therapy programin 2007.

Since then it’s grown tobe one of the biggest pro-grams in the country.

Thedogsand theirhan-dlers visit each kinder-garten through third-grade class to help withreading lessons.

Other dogs visit duringtests or spend the day inthe special education andkindergarten classrooms,often roaming freelyaround the room, Wilsonsaid.

“They can sense whenthe kid is stressed andseem to gravitate towardthat student and put theirhead on their lap,” Wilson

said. “It’s amazing towatch the stress meltaway.”

And having dogs in theclassroom ismaking a bigimpact at the school, saidPrincipal Tara Rosselot.

“It really boosts thekids’ confidence in read-ing. You can see themsmile and open up, and itimproves their readingskills,” she said. “Weknow that the most effec-

tive help (to reading) isfor a child to be able toshare a book with some-one else.”

Having a dog in theclassroom gets the stu-dents excited about read-

ing, Wilson said, and theschool has been able todocument the differenceit makes in reading skills.

Rosselot added that thedogs also provide supportfor students who have

more trouble with socialinteraction or emotionalissues.

They can also help kidswho have difficulty pay-ing attention in class, Wil-son said.

“As soon as they touchthe dog they can concen-trate and focus,” she said.

Carol George bringsherdogTippy to readwiththekids andsaid she lovesbeing part of the programbecause the students getso excited about reading.

ParentHeather Isparo,who has three kids at Lo-cust Corner Elementary,also sees the tremendousbenefit of the program.

“The kids really lightup when they see thedogs,” shesaid. “It’s anon-judgmental way for themto read.”

Most of the 13 readingdogs were rescues, andthey all have therapy reg-istrations, Wilson said.

Pierce Township resi-dents are hoping Cler-mont County officialshear their plea to make aroad safer for those usinga local park.

At a recent trusteesmeeting, resident MarkCannasked if itwas possi-ble to install a guardrailalong Locust CornerRoad, near the PierceTownship Park.

“The road is two feethigher than thewalkway,”he said. “We need to getsomethingup as a preven-tative measure for peopledriving and using the(walking) path.”

Cann said because theroadway is higher thanthe trail, someone whomay drive off the edge ofLocust CornerRoad couldgocareening into theparkand playground area.

Township PublicWorks Director John

Koehler said the road ismaintained by ClermontCounty and officials havepreviously raised con-cerns about liability ifthere is an accident and avehicle hits the guardrail.

Even reducing thespeed limit – it’s currently45 mph – could be a longshot.

Fiscal Officer KarenRegister said they hadtried toget the speed limitlowered on Lewis Road,but were denied. PoliceChief Jeff Bachman saidyears ago they had askedto reduce the speed limiton Locust Corner Roadbecause of thepark, town-ship fire department,cemetery and school butthat request was also de-nied.

“They did a test andthey said it did not meettherequirementsbecauseof the amount of traffic,”he said.

Cann said it’s luckythat nothing has hap-

penedyet, and a guardrailor lowering the speed lim-itwouldmake itmuchsaf-er for pedestrians, parkusers and drivers.

Doug Royer, a deputyengineer for theClermontCountyEngineer’s Office,said if a guardrail is re-quested, they’d come outto look at the area and thedrop-off, but there arestateguidelines theymustfollow.

The same is true forthe speed limit.

“The Ohio Departmentof Transportation has aprocedure we have to gothrough,” he said. “Thecounty is not able to setspeed limits, even oncounty roads.”

Royer added that oncea study is complete, theresults are sent to ODOTfor evaluation and a finaldecision.

BETHEL — The girls softballteam at Bethel-Tate HighSchool has been energized byyouth in the last two seasonsandhas thenumbers toprove it.

After winning a total of 14contests from 2010-2012, a newgroup of Lady Tigers coachedby Matt Weber has won 13games each the past two sea-sons.

Results of Bethel-Tate’s Di-vision III tournament gameagainstWaynesvilleatTippeca-noe High School May 24 werenotavailableprior toCommuni-tyPressMemorialDaypublish-ing deadlines.

Leading up to the game, theLady Tigers had reeled off fourstraightwins, including tourna-mentvictories overSt.Bernard(15-0), Cincinnati Christian(17-1) and Finneytown (8-7).

Considering they started theseason at 2-6, the 13-8 mark go-ing into theMay 24 Division IIIWaynesville tournament gamewas quite impressive. With afew more fortunate bounces, itcould have been better.

“We had four games that wewere actually leading at onepoint,” Weber said. “In bothgames against Western Brownwe were winning and we strug-gled in the lastweekagainstGo-shen.”

The Lady Tigers lost bothgames to Western Brown by arun. Weather also put Weberand company behind as theyhad three postponements withBatavia and one with Goshen.

Leading Bethel-Tate in thepitching circle for a secondstraight year has been juniorCassidy DeVore. While not adominating figure, she hasthrown seven shutouts.

“She surprises people be-cause she throws the ball veryhard,” Weber said. “She worksharder than any girl I’ve beenaround.”

Her battery mate is sopho-more MacKenzie Watson. At 5-foot-7, she’s an athletic figurewho also doubles in basketballfor Bethel-Tate. She’s a com-

manding presence behind theplate and at the plate.

“I would imagine she wouldmove on to a DI school,” Webersaid. “She’s hitting over .600. Ithink if she saw faster pitching,she’d hit a fewmore home runs.Her average is so great, I puther at lead-off.”

In addition toWatson, sopho-moreShelbyMurphy, juniorJu-lia Weber, sophomore ChelseaCooper and DeVore all hit over.400.

In the field, routine plays of-ten are the difference in win-ning and losing in fast-pitchsoftball with bases so close.Mental lapses also led to someearly losses.

“We had our share of er-rors,” Weber said. “We got bet-ter here at the end of the sea-son.”

Thebestnewsabout this sea-son is the promise of things tocome.Particularly, next spring.

Bethel-Tate will only losesenior outfielder Liz Neal fromthis team. Juniors Weber, De-Vore, Allison Poe and MorganWalters return, along withsophomores Cooper, Murphyand Watson and freshmen Jer-rica Allphin and Maddi Lanni-gan. Weber also added some ju-nior varsity players to bolsterhis tournament line-up.

“I’d hope we’d be in the toptwo,” Weber said of next sea-son’s Southern Buckeye Con-ference-American Divisionprospects. “Wemayhaveadivi-sion change next year. I don’tsee it as a hurt or a help. We’reDIII right now.”

Bethel-Tate’s overall num-ber of girls could drop themdown, but Weber still plans onplaying a DII schedule withsome DI schools sprinkled in.

It also will be the last prepseason for his daughter, Julia.Beyond2015, he’s unsure if he’llcontinue coaching.

“It’s very difficult to do thisand have a job,” Weber said.

The Duke Energy employeeoften has to be on a high schoolfield at 4 p.m.many days.Whenyou add in fieldmaintenance, itbecomes a pretty busy part-time job.

CINCINNATI — You go,girls.

That’s the messagethree-time Olympic goldmedal soccer star Heath-erMitts - aHyde Park na-tive and St. Ursula Acad-emy graduate - hopes toget out as she partnerswith TQLUrban Race forthe She Plays, She Winsprogram.

Greater Cincinnatifemale athletes ages13 to24 have a chance to win$1,000 in scholarshipmoney or uniform vouch-ers for their teamsthrough the new pro-gram.

“We believe it’s impor-tant to have strong wom-en in the workplace,”Kristine Glenn said,spokeswoman for TotalQuality Logistics, with lo-cal offices in Milford andUnion Township, Cler-mont County, and West-ern Hills. “A lot of thosewomen come out of asports background. This

is a chance for girls to tellpeople what their sportsmean to them now andhow they will benefitthem in the future.”

Girls can submit a two-minute video or 500-wordessay to the TQL UrbanRace page on Facebook(www.facebook.com/ShePlaysSheWins) an-swering the question,“How have sports posi-tively impacted your lifeandhowdoyou think theywill affect your future?”Entry deadline is June 20.

A panel of Tristatewomen business leaderswill nominate the top fiveentries in age categories13 to 15, 16 to 18 and 19 to24.Thepublicwill vote onthe winners from July 8to 18.

Mitts was in the eligi-ble age range when shefirst began making aname for herself on thepitch. She was a sopho-more on SUA’s 1993 statechampionship team thatbeat Westerville North4-1 and finished the sea-son 21-1-2. She went on to

the University of Floridawhere she won an NCAAtitle with the Gators overheavily favored NorthCarolina in 1998.

She played in the 2004Olympics in Athens, the2008 games in Beijingand the 2012 LondonOlympics, winning threegold medals along theway.

“I feel like it’s an op-portunity to give back,”Mitts said. “I think it’s avery positive thing, obvi-ously, for girls to havesports in their lives.

“There are very fewfemale athletes who arein a position to be a rolemodel and if I can be oneof them, that’s great. Iwant to be.”

Glenn said TQL is in-volved in several chari-ties related to youth ath-letics. Its annual UrbanRace benefits the RedsCommunity Fund andMarvin Lewis Communi-ty Fund, both of whichprovide opportunities forat-risk youth in the com-munity through sports

and education. She Plays,SheWins is just an exten-sion of that involvement.

Mitts is now retiredand living in Philadelphiawith her husband, formerNFL quarterback A.J.Feeley, and 3-month-oldson, Connor.

“Now that I’m retired Ihave more time to dothings like this,” she said.“I have more of a chanceto get back to Cincinnatito see family and friends.

Mitts said she stays intouch with a lot of theplayers from the 1993state championship soc-cer team from SUA. Shewill host her annual soc-cer camp July 19 atNorthern Kentucky Uni-versity.

“All these teams Iplayed on and had suc-cess with - from the statechamps, to the NCAA, tothe Olympics - the onething we had in commonwas thatwewere close onand off the field,” Mittssaid. “You learna lot fromthegirls youplaywith ev-ery day.”

A publication of

The horror and crime ofelder abuse resonates through-

out the state,as well as inour own com-munity.

Accordingto Policy Mat-ters Ohio, anadvocacy or-ganizationbased in Ohio,“The ‘silentepidemic’ ofelder abusegets little pub-

lic attention, but estimates ofprevalence in Ohio, based onthe findings of national stud-ies, indicate it should be a pub-lic health priority.”

Ohio law requires that coun-ties investigate all allegationsof abuse, self-abuse, neglectand self-neglect. ClermontSenior Services, under con-

tract with the Department ofJobs and Family Services,conducts the adult protectiveservice investigations.

Currently, only $500,000 isdirected, statewide, towardinvestigating reported casesand approximately $30,000 ofthat amount comes to Cler-mont County and is put towardone full time and two back-upinvestigators. Policy MattersOhio reports that many Ohiocounties receive as little as$2,000 a year for the services,and 39 of Ohio’s 88 countieslack a full-time APS staff per-son. To offset the differenceneeded to meet this less-than-minimally-funded mandate,senior services levy funds aredirected toward protectingthose seniors who are truly themost vulnerable.

Further consider that Cler-mont County continues its

rapid trend in growth, havingthe third fastest growing pop-ulation of persons age 60+ inthe state and trending withMiami University ScrippsGerontology Center projec-tions that the County’s 60+population is increasing by 120percent between 2010 and2020. The growing older adultpopulation and demand for theprioritization of critical-needservices, as well as planningfor future growth, puts Cler-mont County in a tenuous posi-tion.

Aligning with that growth isthe large increase of APS re-ferrals from124 in 2008 to 264received in 2013, and 2014 hasalready exceeded 2013, basedupon referrals-to-date compar-isons.

Frankly, if, in the cases offinancial exploitation, we canprotect seniors from falling

prey to the unlawful, deceitful,and criminal means of drain-ing them of their financialresources, the taxpayer willultimately save since personalresources can be used for aperson’s care rather than beingdepleted by unlawful meansand having no choice but toaccess needed resourcesthroughMedicaid assistance.

The state-wide lack of ade-quate funding for Adult Pro-tective Services demonstratesa lack of regard for the needsof the most vulnerable of olderadults.

HB 483 has passed in theHouse of Representatives andis now under review in theSenate. I had the honor of sub-mitting testimony to the SenateFinance Committee in supportof this Bill, which would pro-vide for a statewide allocationof $10 million to protect older

adults who have been abused,neglected or drained of every-thing they worked and saved intheir lifetimes.

Please consider contactingState Sen. Joseph Uecker, re-questing his support of HB483.

And join us in recognizingJune 15, 2014, as World ElderAbuse Awareness and Preven-tion Day. If you believe some-one may be a victim of elderabuse, neglect or financialexploitation, call the ClermontCounty Department of Jobsand Family Services 732-7173who will report the circum-stances to the investigativeteam. Some form of action isrequired within 24 hours ofreceiving the referral.

May 21questionWhat’s your favorite summer event

in the area?What do you like about it?

“Paddlefest, as it a unique way tosee the city and the river, hopefullywithout getting run over by a barge orgo-fast boat. All of the local farmers’markets. I am not necessarily a rabidproponent of ‘buy local,’ but if you aregoing to buy fresh vegetables andbreads, etc. anyway, why not buythem from local small business peo-ple? The best thing about summer inCincy is that is is all easily acces-sible.”

Mark Fertitta

“The annual July 4th IndependenceDay Fireworks off Springdale havebeen great. I hope they can be sus-tained financially as the event is goodfor the entire family as is the Taste ofColerain.

The summer athletic events atHaubner Field in White Oak are anightly event. One can run into peerswho ‘played’ there many years agoalong with kids and grandkids that donow. The older my peers get the bet-ter they ‘used to’ perform at Haubner.Go Figure!”

May15 questionWhat advice would you give to grad-

uating high school and college seniors?

“My advice for a graduate is ran-dom and varied, but priceless none-theless:

“1. Never lie to you.“2. If it seems too hard, you are

doing something wrong.“3. Sometime in your life live on

the East Coast, but leave before youbecome too hardened; and sometimein your life live on the West Coast, butleave before you become too soft.

“4. If you can’t fix it with a ham-mer, clearly it is an electrical prob-lem.

“5. Always use your turn signals sothe world will know which way youare headed.”

“6. It doesn’t matter if the glass ishalf full or half empty, obviously theglass is twice as big as it needs to be.”

THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONWhere is the best park in the area andwhy do you think it’s at the top of thelist?

Every week we ask readers a question they canreply to via email. Send your answers [email protected] with Ch@troomin the subject line.

Clermont County hasfour serious environ-mental problems thatshould be addressed byour community.

Many Clermont neigh-borhoods lack a plan for

properlydispos-ing ofprescrip-tiondrugs.Thesedrugsrequire a21stcenturyfiltrationsystemto pre-

vent the contaminationof our ecosystem. Themedical profession hasprovided all it can toreduce waste at a costthat is balanced; howev-er, that balance has beenmade on the backs of ourlocal governments andwildlife, and now re-quires greater assis-tance.

Additionally, the Ohio-led fight against frackinghas emerged in ClermontCounty. In 2011, JohnKasich’s Ohio Depart-ment of Natural Re-sources perversely is-sued 156 permits to drill-ing companies to capital-ize on natural gas and oil

in the Utica Shale – thevery shale that sits be-neath our feet.

Hydraulic fracturemining has cost Appa-lachia more than it bar-gained for: the lead frac-turing companies inClermont County havepumped our environ-ment with 2,500 chem-icals containing 750 com-pounds to extract fossilprofit, many times onpublic lands. Even now,U.S. Sen. Rob Portmanoutrageously demandsmore drilling on publiclands.

Neighbors should alsohold officials account-able for the 500,000 tonsof toxic sludge, largelyimported from LoveCanal, disposed at CE-COS between 1979 and1990. Seven football sta-dium-sized cells up to56-feet deep are adjacentto nearby Harsha Lake.Clermont County offi-cials have used the trap-pings of local offices as agateway for doing busi-ness and enriching theirprivate lives.

We are sitting on topof a disaster at the CE-COS facility that hasalready contaminatedour water supply viaPleasant Run Creek andthe East Fork corridor of

the Little Miami River.What we have lacked inrestraint, we are makingup for with lost time.

Lastly, ClermontCounty is home to thelargest coal-poweredenergy facility in Great-er Cincinnati, ZimmerPower Station. Standardcoal and its closest al-ternative – somethingidiotically called clean-coal – are environmental-ly pollutive and contrib-ute to the large amountsof acid precipitation inother states, includingNew York. Clean coal is amyth that has been usedfor profit as we continuedown the road of irre-sponsibility.

Former administratorGloria Condelles said thecounty’s townships havenever been without theirproblems. 2014 is a spe-cifically challengingtime.

A strong neighbor-hood approach is givingthe county’s importantdecision-making back tolocal communities. 2014is our moment to take thesteps we need to tacklethese and other problemsour community facestogether.

have been extended (now open10 a.m.-5 p.m.) to accommodateadditional weekend visits tothe shelter and hopefully moreadoptions!

With the generous supportof the community, the Cler-mont Humane Society con-tinues to care for other non-county supported animals suchas cats, horses, and livestock.We care for and try to havedogs adopted, long after therequired three days of housing.

In 2014, the county K-9 des-ignee, Clermont Pets Alive, hasonly been contacted about 28dogs we needed to find homes

quarter of 2014 that numberhas increased to 317 animals.

The Clermont HumaneSociety, established in 1957, isworking with several rescuegroups, community members,local businesses, and a greatcrew of volunteers to findforever homes for the animals.We are working proactively toensure that the shelter is openwhen it is convenient for thoseconsidering adopting a four-legged family member. Allpets are spayed or neuteredprior to adoption and Saturdayhours at the shelter, located at4025 Filager Road in Batavia,

The Clermont County Hu-mane Society continues to

make greatstrides in in-creasing theadoption ratesfor abused andneglectedanimals in thecounty. In2013, 1,114animals wereclaimed,adopted orrescued. In thefirst quarter of

2013, we adopted/rescued atotal of 223 animals; in the first

for; the K-9 designee is con-tacted as our last resort to savean animal, after all other ave-nues, including contacting theever-growing list of rescuegroups, are unable to acceptthe dog.

While Clermont Pets Aliveasserted in a recent interviewthat they have saved 700 ani-mals in six months, those ani-mals have not been taken fromthe Clermont County AnimalShelter. Our current adoptionand rescue programs havebeen extremely successful inhandling the intake our open-admission shelter receives.

Clermont County officialscontinue to acknowledge oursuccess and have extended thecurrent contract through theend of 2014. The staff, boardand volunteers have done atremendous job supporting thecommunity and taking on thischallenging task of addressingthe homeless pet population inour area. We can always usemore help.

Are your allergieskicking in?Mine sure are,and asmuchwork aswehave outdoors in the veg-

etable andherb gar-dens it’snot, asMarthawould say,“a goodthing.”

Myfriend andCincinnatiMagazinemarketing

director Chris Ohmersaid it best. “I’m livingfrom tissue to tissue.”Well, I’ve got a naturalhome remedy thatmighthelp Chris and others whoare affected by seasonalallergies. I can tell youthis:My “potion” surehelpsme get throughthese pollen-laden springdays.

Easy and effectivehoney ciderallergy drink

First thing to know:Never give honey to chil-dren under the age of1year. And if you’re goingtomake this drink, makeit with raw local organichoney and organic rawapple cider. The reason?For the local honey, beescollect pollen from yourarea and this helps buildsup in your system. If allgoes right, you couldbecome immune to thepollen in your area.

As far as the organicapple cider goes, it’s notrefined and distilled andit is thought to block his-tamine reactions. It alsocontains healthy en-zymes, vitamins andminerals. It can help

lower your cholesteroland blood pressure aswell.

For every cup ofwarmor chilledwater,stir in:

1generous tablespooneach local raw honey andorganic apple cider vine-gar.

Add a squeeze of lem-on for extra vitamin C ifyouwant. Drink a coupletimes a day, ormore ifyou’re outdoors a lot.

Recipe Hall of Fame:Tony Palazzolo’s versionof Frisch’s vegetablesoup. I can’t rememberwhich class I was teach-ing, but a student cameup and askedme if Iwould publish this favor-ite recipe again. Some ofyouwill recall that Tony’srecipe, as well asmyversion, are inmyRecipeHall of Fame.

“A result of over adozen attempts, and Ithink it is very close toFrisch’s,” Tony toldmeway backwhen. Tony alsonoted the soup is best ifallowed to rest for 2-3hours after cooking ornext day. I’vemade itwithmostly broth andjust a bit of water and it isreally good that way, too.

4 tablespoons vegeta-ble oil

1 cup onion, diced1/2 cup each diced:

carrots, celery1/2 cup each frozen

vegetables: peas, corn,cut green beans, babylima beans (can usecanned baby limas)

1can, 14.5 ounce, dicedtomatoes with juice

2 quarts beef broth1quart water1/2 teaspoon each

thyme, garlic powder3/4 teaspoon black

pepper1cup potato, diced1/4 cup pearl barley1/4 cup long grain riceSalt to tasteIn a large soup pot,

sauté onion, carrot, andcelery until onion is softbut not browned, about10minutes. Add rest of in-gredients except potato,rice and barley. Bring toboil and lower to simmerpartially covered for30-45minutes.

Add potato, rice andbarley, bring back to boil,lower to simmer partiallycovered for another 30minutes or until potato,

rice and barley are done.Add salt and pepper.

Readerswant toknow: Are lilacs edible?

Yes, as long as they’re“clean” not sprayed, etc.They taste as good asthey smell. Right now I’mgathering some to cry-stallize with eggwhiteand sugar. I’ll let youknow how they turn out.

Howdy, folks.LastweekRuthAnngot

some clothes hangersfrom the basement andone had some rust on it. Isaid, I will take it to thecarpenter shop to use.RuthAnn said no, I will dowhat my Aunt Ethel al-ways did. She would wrapthe hanger with yarn. Ilookedatsomemorehang-ers they were wrappedwithyarn.Theclotheswillnot slipoff thehanger thatway. Of course Chestergave her a hard time withthe yarn. There are waysto use items that folksthrow away. If you stopand think how our folks intheearlytimedidthingstouse them longer.

Thegreenhousesfullofgarden plants and flowersare sure beautiful. Thereis Grant’s three places,Bucktown Road, Ohio 131,and Milford Garden Cen-ter.

The Bethel Feed storehassomebeautifulgardenplants and some really bigtomato plants that are al-most two feet tall. If youwant some early tomatoesget one of them.There is agreenhouse on TollgateRoad, the Ellis Farm andGarden Center. a friendtold us about another one

called Cain Run also onTollgate Road.

This is the time to beplanting the garden. Thispast Sunday and Mondaywedidn’t haveany frost to

hurt ourgarden. Wehaveplentyof gardenplanted.

Thesegardenstores surehaveplentyof gardenseeds as dothe Bish-op’s Hard-

ware and Village Hard-ware inBethel. Especiallylimabeanscalled theKingof theGarden, this iswhatwe like to plant.

I made some tripods,five feet tall with a disklike on top to put the canepoles. With a hole drilled,then drill a hole for a nailto hold them in place.There is three bamboocanes in each. I will trythese for this year for thelima beans instead of run-ning a line for them togrow. I will write laterhow this works.

We have gotten twoswarms of honey bees sofar this year and hope toget somemore.Thehoneybees need all the help theycan get. Give us a call at513-734-6980 if you have

any swarms.This catChester is sure

a live wire. The othernightafterwewent tobed,he would run and jump onthe bed, then run in therestoftheroom.Thiswenton for some time. Then Ithink he laid down andwent to sleep. Then in themorninghewasonthebedpatting Ruth Ann on thejaw with his paw to wakeher up.

After we get up hewants his breakfast. Thenhe starts meowing to gooutside. When we go backto work in the garden, welet him out. He runs thenlooks to seewherewe are.We talked to a lady thathas a cat that will set onher and starts to meowrealsoft thenkeepsonandgets louder so the cat canget her attention until shegets up and feeds it.

The fishing is good atEast Fork, with lots ofsmall crappie beingcaught. These little oneswillgrowuptobebigones.Some folks are catchingcrappie up to 15 incheslong.

Iwas talking toMike attheBoar’sHeadBait Shopat Afton. He said they arestarting to catch somestripers this is thetimeforthem to start feeding onthe surface. Mike said afeller called him and said

they are going to have aMuskey tournament thisfall. They are catching afewMuskey now, this willbe interesting.

We have not been fish-ing yet. There is a friendof ours that wants to gofishing with us and hopethis weekwe can go.

Therewas a feller herethis morning that showedus a tomato that he pickedgreen along with other to-matoes last fall. The othertomatoes got ripe but thisone didn’t. He laid it in thehouse all winter now it isripe a little shriveled, butOK. I had never seen thisbefore, he is going to savethe seeds.

We talked to a lady thathad seen a garden wherethe gardener had put afence like a tunnel in be-tween the rows of beans.Then he put a chicken inthe tunnel with water todrink and there were nobugs or weeds in betweenthe rows.

Start your week by go-ingtothehouseofworshipof your choice and praisethe Good Lord.

God bless all.More later.
