Welcome to the 93rd Annual Coronado Flower Show: “Let the Good Times Grow” Diana Drummey and Leslie Crawford - Coronado Flower Show Chairs

A

s you have been roaming around town doing errands, getting the kids to school or heading to work you will notice that the city is starting to freshen up with color and beauty as it prepares for the 2018 Flower Show.

The Coronado Flower Show sign has been posted in Spreckels Park. Lawns are freshly mowed, trees and shrubs trimmed, roses pruned and weeds pulled. Yes, it is home front judging time in the City of Coronado and the Coronado Flower Show to cap a week of beauty in the City of Coronado. It’s time to “Let the Good Times Grow.”

As a Standard Flower Show, those of us who are involved in the planning of the show want to educate the public about how flower shows come together.

We want to spark people’s interest in horticulture and floral design as well as provide amazing themes for our designers as they work to express their creativity with plant material.

To that end, there will be many wonderful people with booths at the Flower Show. The San Diego Master Gardener Association will not only be at the show again to answer your garden, plant and tree questions, but also selling their birdhouses which are hand-crafted by Master Gardeners.

City Farmers Nursery will bring in many items from their nursery, answer 8

your questions about growing a garden and raising chickens. New vendors are bringing in wonderful and creative yard art from HUEby2; Mary and her daughter Amy have teamed up to create beautiful cloth purses. Coronado local vendors Plant Hammocks and Soap and Succulents will be there. Floral designs were the focus for Susan Aach ceramics, as well as Suzie’s Bowls and Jewelry. My Rustic Garden returns with their metal garden art as well as Chief Plumeria Joe back with plumerias and bags of fresh compost from his garden.

All that and the Friends of the Library

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

will be selling garden books in the show from Second Hand Prose.

Saturday night is the Floral Fling hosted by the Coronado Junior Woman’s Club.

The ladies have organized an amazing event with plenty to drink and eat from local restaurants from around Coronado.

Come celebrate this year’s amazing show and support Coronado’s finest restaurants under the stars and tents of the Coronado Flower Show. Tickets are still on sale at coronadoflowershow.com.

The Coronado Floral Association webpage www.coronadoflowershow. org is full of all the details you always wanted to know about the current and historical moments of the flower show.

Take a few minutes to view the creative and informative webpage. Please share your feedback and like us on Facebook to keep yourself current of the events leading up to the show.

This year’s theme “Let the Good Times Grow” was the creative theme for the show, but the committee is also looking for ideas and themes-perhaps you may have an idea for 2019. If you have a wonderful idea, theme, or concept, please reach out to anyone at the show and share your ideas.

This is truly a community event and the show relies on everyone getting involved. We are honored to be chairs of this year’s Flower Show.

As a service to local artists, the Cultural Arts Commission offers several opportunities for local artists to display and promote their artwork. The commission operates the C3 Gallery in the Coronado Community Center at 1845 Strand Way with four shows planned for 2018, featuring artwork of local artists. The current show is “Never Too Old” featuring the work of 43 local artists participating in various art instruction programs on the island. The exhibition runs through June 1.

In addition, at no cost, local artists may complete a Directory Page on the commissionsponsored website CoronadoARTS.com. The artist directory pages enable the commission to promote Coronado artists and provide patrons an opportunity to learn more about local artists, view their work and obtain contact information.

Flowers are everywhere including on several of the “Celebrating Coronado Artists” banner series installed on Orange Avenue. From early April through the end of June, 30 beautiful light-pole banners representing 27 Coronado artists are on display on the Orange Avenue medians from First Street to Avenida de las Arenas. The Orange Avenue Banner Program, generously funded through a grant from Discover Coronado, is in its second year and seeks to encourage the use of public spaces for public art and the promotion of art and cultural events.

The “Celebrating Coronado Artists” series was launched in 2017 and this year 15 new artists have been selected to join the 13 artists from 2017 and display their artwork on the banners. The Artists Series fulfills the mission of the Cultural Arts Commission to provide an avenue to promote, encourage and raise awareness of Coronado’s visual arts in general and our individual artists in particular and to create collaborative opportunities for Coronado artists to become an integral part of the rich fabric of our community.

Welcome Home The home on First Street was on the market when Allan and Lyndsey Arendsee put in their bid for the house at 420 First Street. They loved the incredible view of the San Diego Bay that welcomed them, especially when they went to the second story. Lyndsey Arendsee could just imagine the bursts of fireworks that could be seen from the upper balconies.

The home itself was uniquely split into two suites, a bonus for them; prefect for when their daughters and their spouses would come to visit or for renting out in the summer months.

A bonus was that they lived in a one story home across the street. They knew they were keeping their home at single level, so the views from 420 First would be kept intact. “We wanted that house,� said Lyndsey Arendsee. It was as simple as that.

30

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

But the house was in need of some help. The biggest challenge was that an elderly person had lived in the home for many years and many issues that had come up had not been addressed.

For starters, the second floor balconies that offered that houseselling view had to be rebuilt due to termite damage. The

Arendsees called in Kitty Childers of KC Custom Remodeling and Jessica Nichols and Karen Frazier from Bungalow 56.

They had met Childers through mutual friends on the golf course and had hired her for work in one of their previous homes, which they had been very happy with.

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

31

Originally a radio and television reporter, Childers had moved into remodeling and construction, eventually leaving her job to continue working on homes full time. “What started as a hobby became a business, which is wonderful,” said Childers.

Childers often remains friends with her customers after the jobs are long over, because as she likes to get it right the first time. She was happy to work with the Arendsees once again. She was impressed with the way the Arendsees approached the refurbishing of their new house. “It was a top to bottom remodel,” said Childers. “And that’s the way you want to do it.”

32

Luckily, the remodel on 420 First Street ended up being more cosmetic than structural. The Arendsees redid the outside with a fresh coat of paint, but pretty much kept the inside structure the same, with the exception of moving a few walls. The balconies were redone, asbestos was removed, a few plumbing pipes were changed out. A deck was also built outside.

Landscaping for the funny L-shaped yard was tackled

by Lux Landscape Design. A deck was built outside, with a sitting area, fire pit, and barbecue. One end of the yard was a perfect spot for bocce ball or lawn bowling.

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

33

When it came to furnishing the inside of the house, the Ardensees left that to Bungalow 56. “I take no credit. Bungalow 56 did the full interior,” said Lyndsey Arendsee. “They [Nichols and Frazier] just get it. They are two very energetic people to work with. I even asked them to make my shelves incredible and they did that.”

34

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

The home now has a beautiful exterior and interior. They kept the two kitchens, a full one upstairs and a smaller one downstairs. There are two master bedrooms, one on each level. With the addition of a bunk room and a trundle bed, the house will accommodate 6-8 people, perfect for two couples or families, just as the Arendsees had wanted.

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

35

When the Arendsee daughters returned home for Christmas, they were excited to have their own places to stay. “Everyone is a winner, no matter which portion of they house they stay in,” said Lyndsey. “It turned out so nice!”

F l e o l w b i e d r s E d flavor for sp n a r o ring ol c e u cu q i isi Un ne

by Denise Lyon Though we are not eagerly waiting for the winter snow to melt like many people around the country are, we still look forward to signs that spring is here. In Coronado, April usually brings a little more sun, rain (if we’re lucky) and of course, flowers.

Edible flowers are a beautiful way to bring a garden indoors. They provide color, fragrance, spice and beauty to meals beginning with drinks and cocktails all the way to desserts.

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

41

This is the time of year many herbs are producing flowers. Flowering herbs are both beautiful and edible as are a number of other flowers like roses, borage, lavender, pansies, Johnny Jump Ups, violets, nasturtiums and even orchids. Good Housekeeping describes Johnny Jump Up flowers, a species of violet, as “minty and bubble gummy.” Sounds fun, doesn’t it? Many flowers are spicy or sweet and delicate.

To add flowers to your dish, make sure you check first to make sure that the flowers are edible and that they are pesticide-free, then gently wash and dry. You can also easily make your own crystallized flowers with just egg whites and sugar.

How to Crystallize Flowers and Berries You will need:

1 egg white (Use powdered egg whites, available at Michaels, if you are feeding delicate tummies or want to keep them several months).

Flowers or berries that are washed and dried, fresh and firm Sugar (Superfine or baker’s sugar is best as it sparkles more)

Try growing a few of your own favorite herbs and know that you can use both the leaves and the flowers as long as they are not sprayed. If you don’t have any herbs in the garden, edible herbs and flowers can be purchased at farmer’s markets, many health food stores and Specialty Produce in San Diego.

A note of caution: be sure that whatever flower you choose to eat is pesticide free and edible. While many are edible, there are a few flowers that you shouldn’t ingest. Also, since our society rarely eats flowers, it’s always good idea to eat just a few at a time in case anyone is prone to allergies.

In the meantime, create your own Garden of Eden this spring by garnishing your meals with lovely edible flowers.

42

2018 Coronado Magazine - April

Small brush with soft bristles

To crystallize:

Take the egg white and gently loosen it with a fork.

Lift your chosen flower or berry with tweezers and brush the blossom or berry lightly with egg white and then sprinkle the sugar over the top with a spoon or shaker. Completely coat the flower and then let dry on a rack.

It takes about an hour for the flowers to dry. Once dry, the flowers can be stored wrapped in a paper towel and put in a small airtight container. They can be stored for several months and even longer if you use powdered egg whites.

It would be difficult to make anything as beautiful as a flower - even if you are gifted with using a pastry bag and frosting. So why not use the real thing?

Dust a cake with rose petals or candied violets.

What’s in Season? Mysterious Artichokes So what’s up with the vegetable with the prickly tightly closed bud?

Artichokes are actually the bloom of the thistle plant and part of the sunflower family. They are in season from March through May with a small season in the fall. To purchase, look for heavy artichokes with the petals closed with moist stems. The petals of the bloom will squeak when rubbed together and it should be green in color. Some purple streaks are fine, but not brown. In the fall you might find some black streaks due to frost, but that’s ok.

Baby artichokes are fashionable, but they are actually off the same plant as the larger buds, just from the lower branches that gets less sun.You can eat almost all of the baby artichokes since they rarely develop the choke, or fuzzy part, that is inedible.

Do store them in a sealed plastic bag with a little sprinkling of water and put into the coldest part of the fridge. Do not wash prior to using.

To prepare, rinse artichokes in cold running water. Petal tips can be snipped with scissors to remove the spiky part. Trim 1/2 to 3/4 inches from top, trim the stem on the bottom.

Artichokes can be steamed 25-45 minutes or boiled 20-30 minutes until petals easily pull off.

To eat, pull outer petals off and dip the white fleshy part into a dip or melted butter. Place into your mouth and gently use your teeth to scrape off the fleshy ends and discard petal. When you get to the center, remove the fuzzy choke. At the base you will fine the heart. Once cleaned of choke, cut into pieces and dip into your sauce and enjoy.

Never store artichokes in aluminum or cook in iron or aluminum pots - it will turn the artichoke into an unattractive blue/black color.

n the city of Coronado art is very much alive! We are lucky to be able to see art on our drives to work or walking along Orange Avenue. The Imagine Dragon sculpture in front of the Coronado Library or the the sculpture of Handstand on the edge of the Community Center’s roof evoke whimsy, imagination and fun.

Art affects everyone, reaches everyone, touches everyone.

The language of art is universal and speaks to all. Best of all, art is a memory and a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are and the things you never want to lose.

The evolution of my art began when I was in preschool. Family and nature were the primary influences behind my crayoncolored stick figures with giant heads standing under apple trees and rainbows.

I quickly learned the joy those creations would bring to my family as they became the wallpaper on the front of our refrigerator. I think I knew then that art was selfless and was meant to be shared.

As I grew, so did my art and inspirations.

Those primitive drawings soon evolved into charcoal images depicting my love of animals. I had an art class in every one of my twelve years of school. In high school and college, interest in my art resulted 50

in commissions which encouraged my exploration of new mediums such as oils, acrylics, pastels and pen and ink. There was also new subject matters of portraits and architecture.

Art had just as much of an impact on my life as did any sport that I played and has proven to be valuable to me all the years since. When I look back, I can see that art is more than just creativity; it is even therapeutic.

Much like a poet, some of my best work was born from heartache, love, loss and even illness.

The joy and peace of creating can literally lower one’s heart rate, stress level and quiet anxieties. The value of art is becoming more widely known. Look at all the adult coloring books that have come out and the current popularity of painting or ceramics classes.

I am fortunate to live in a city that is a visual feast of inspiration. Coronado’s idyllic landscape is an artist’s dream. Thirty years in Coronado has given me a postcard-like collection of stunning sunrises, sunsets and pristine beaches from which I can paint.

Quaint cottages with colorful doors and clusters of flowers make beautiful pen and ink renderings. I am even heart struck by the multitude of furry four-legged residents and

can often be seen sketching their portraits.

With beaches dotted with morning surfers, flowering tree-lined streets, jasmine scented air, historical architecture and, of course, the beach cruisers outside the local cafés, there is no shortage of ideas for art in this town.

I believe that everyone has a creative side, even if it is buried deep within. Beyond the creative and therapeutic aspects of art, I love teaching art. Mainly I work on canvas and have offered classes in Coronado and the south bay area. It is wonderful to see people be surprised and delighted by their own work, with a little instruction. There is so much fun and fellowship in painting classes both for adults and children, although I also offer individual instruction in all mediums. Having people look at what’s visually in front of them in a new and different way as art is a joy.

In short, art is a true labor of love for me and I hope it never ends.

Coronado Cooks: Mary Ellen Teeter Contributor Linda L. Austin Linda L. Austin is also a contributor to the E&J with a monthly column “The Grandmother I Always Wanted.”

Planning your menus ahead of time takes on a totally different meaning when confronted with Mary Ellen Teeter’s method. In January or February, she sits down with an empty calendar, cookbooks, and her notes and plans a year’s worth of menus, filling in the daily calendar squares with all the information, including recipe page numbers as needed. Her impressive planning serves as a timesaver since she always knows what she needs to have on hand and has done the leg work in an efficient manner. Of course, some meals get switched around or scratched as life interrupts her plans. Mary Ellen is very easy going, however, and being flexible has made her plan work seamlessly for about 20 years.

Cooking is more a hobby for Mary Ellen than a chore. She enjoys cooking for two or ten and often has twenty when the whole family descends. As you might guess, she selects menus for entertaining that allow her to enjoy friends and family and not be tied to the kitchen. She prepares dishes ahead of time, chops the necessary ingredients needed at the last minute, cleans as she goes, and is the gracious hostess while the food cooks. An entertaining menu might include chicken breasts with mushroom sauce, baked rice with mushrooms, a salad, and a luscious dessert.

The family eats together every six weeks at Mary Ellen’s. She is conscious of member’s preferences as well as restrictions. One son still does not like onions and has two sons with a severe nut allergy; a granddaughter is allergic to eggs. If a dish has either of those ingredients, she is sure to have alternate dishes to satisfy everyone.

As a new wife, Mary Ann had to read cookbooks and teach herself to cook since her mother had preferred cooking alone.

Being Filipino, her mother’s specialties were Filipino, Spanish, Portuguese, but, also, American dishes. The only dish Mary Ellen did not like was a sauce made with squid ink.

Baking, limited to entertaining now, is her favorite kind of cooking, and she never shies away from complicated recipes if time allows. Trifle made with baked angel food cake, homemade custard, and real whipped cream is a favorite. Jim’s mother Abby, who lived with them for many years, contributed several family recipes to be handed down.

Jim is especially fond of his mother’s Irish Potato Cake, a dense cake with lots of spices and a rich frosting. Mom’s Flan, Apple Cake, Sticky Toffee Pudding, and Lemon Meringue Pie are other Abby favorites.

Fearing Abby’s cinnamon rolls recipe would vanish when she was gone since it was not written down, Mary Ellen’s son videoed Abby making the rolls while someone wrote down the ingredients and directions.

Refresh Your Home

For Spring and Summer

by Pat Marshall

In Coronado we enjoy great weather year-round, but spring is still a special time when we are graced with longer days and emerging growth of flowers and trees, and an air of anticipation for the summer months ahead. For many, this time means more entertaining, more vacations with guests coming to stay and just more relaxation time at home.

What better time to refresh your home decor and enjoy the results!

Unless you’re just moving in or completing a renovation, you’ll probably be looking to make strategic changes incorporating your current furnishings.

So here are some thoughts to keep in mind…

Review!

The elements of these categories should all work together to achieve a harmonious space.

• Artwork may be what defines the colors, tone or theme of a space. Assess the value and attachment to your current art. It may be time to relocate some pieces or make a change.

• Lighting should enhance the space and create a comfortable environment. New lamps or lampshades may add needed color, texture, and height variation.

Mixing materials of metals, wood, ceramic and glass with color may also be more interesting.

• Area rugs can set a tone with pattern, color, and texture. They define a seating area or any unique space. Overlaying a small colorful or animal skin rug on carpet or big area rug is a great popular trend.

• Furniture is usually a long-term investment.

Changing one or two furniture pieces can make a big impact. Or you can update wood furniture with paint or refinishing Seating that is still comfortable can be made new if you reupholster or add slipcovers.

• If your current furniture is neutral colors, then you may be able to create a whole fresh look by changing pillows, accessories, lighting, or rugs.

• Decorative accents are the easiest and most economical way to create change in decor.

New pillows, trays, boxes, vases, bowls, etc., are like icing on the cake. Accents balanced by color, texture, and scale truly make a space complete.

• Outdoor spaces are an extension of our home. Today’s durable outdoor pillows and rugs are as fashionable and colorful as ever!

A little, or a lot, of changes to décor will give your home a fresh new look for spring and summer!

It will be the place you will want to spend your time.

Declutter!

So first, remove the clutter! Excess clutter can mask even the best decorating schemes. Here are some helpful hints to reclaim your area: • Take care of papers, recycle magazines, newspapers that accumulate.

• Store away random items that are not decorative, or corral odd items in baskets or nice boxes.

• If you’ve accumulated too many books, it may be time to contribute some at the library.

Grouping together similar objects can be eye catching. Here unique classic bottles are dressed up with polished shells for a quiet touch of elegance.

Lighting enhances any space. This lamp adds texture and color and gives a variation of height between the pictures on the wall and the height of a chair.

Edit!

Take a good look at your spaces. Objects, furniture, and lighting must relate to one another to create a welcoming environment.

Even valuable items can become clutter if they’re not properly placed in the room.

Identify the things you love and part with those you don’t. Over time we tend to add, but not often do we subtract.

Try placing your small décor, picture frames, candles, small art, and assorted knickknacks in a cardboard box so you can review the space from a new perspective. This may help you see new opportunities for change, and then only re-use what really works.

Some may work better in a different room or location.

Donate, recycle, or sell things you don’t like or need any more.

Refresh a quiet reading nook in your home by adding a colorful throw and pillow to neutral furniture.

PARENTING

by Hattie Foote I’m just going to start off by saying I am an Instagram mom.

My 25 year old self is rolling her eyes at me, because pre kids I thought these paparazzi moms were nuts. Yet, here I am.

I get it, people probably think I’m nuts too.

The beauty is that I am ok with that (yay for growing up)! I have found my passion for photography through social media and Coronado has played a starring role in this journey.

PARENTING

So my first experience with social media was MySpace during college.

Then Facebook was the new, cool kid in town. During that transition my grandma wanted to know what the deal was with “SpaceBook.”

Obviously there have been tons of different platforms, but Instagram is where I found my groove. Call me crazy, but there is something much more pleasant about seeing beautiful photos of families, rather than seeing your old co worker get into a “screaming” match about politics.

Easy peasy.

If you ever come across my feed (@ hattiefoote) you will quickly see what brings me happiness; my family, but more specifically my family at the beach. In case you weren’t aware, we live in paradise you guys! It is hard to take a bad picture at the beach, but I have two pieces of advice for capturing our Coronado magic.

First is timing is everything, there is nothing like the golden hour. The last hour before sunset will give you delicious lighting.

Which leads me to my first tip; Second is, don’t pose. My best if someone doesn’t bring you captures have been my daughter happiness, playing Moana or my husband and son watching waves. If you DELETE. go without any expectations or pressure, the result will be much

more genuine. (It reminds me of the time I got the whole family dressed to the nines to take our Christmas card photo. Lets just say my husband got kicked where the sun don’t shine, and it was pure chaos from that moment on.)

Disastrous photo shoots bring up an interesting point. Social media can be overwhelming sometimes, especially when all you see are the “perfect” families or moments. It is so important to remember this isn’t an accurate description of everyday life.

Listen, if you want me to post pictures of the time my husband and I argued at dinner or my daughter squirted an entire baby food pouch all over Boneys, I will. However, I like to look at my pictures as an artistic expression.

I lived the blowout diaper moments;

I don’t need to relive them on social media. As long as you have a healthy, realistic outlook, this can actually be a fun outlet.

Sometimes the beach just isn’t going to happen. That’s totally ok, because this leads me to my secret weapon; alley walls! Say what? OK, so we live on an alley and it is actually photography heaven. You can find so many amazing walls to pose against: gorgeous bougainvillea, brick, basic white, or wood. So many options!

You can easily use a smartphone or DSLR and I like to give a quick edit with PicTapGo or Snapseed. Voila, InstaGold!

So if you ever see me posing by your trashcan… come say hi!

Ask AN EXPERT: Tax Law Changes

Jane M. Braun, CFP®, MSBA Certified Financial Planner™ Manning Wealth Management, Inc 619-237-9977

How will the tax law changes for 2018 including the new standard deduction impact charitable giving?

Rules for charitable donations are basically the same and donations will remain deductible. On a positive note, the percentage limit for cash donations to public charities and certain other organizations increases from 50% to 60% of the taxpayer’s adjusted gross income. The negative change is that taxpayers can no longer deduct payments made to a college or college athletic department in exchange for athletic events or seating rights at a stadium. The big concern on the part of non- profit organizations is fear that the increased standard deduction, ($12,000 for individuals, $18,000 for households, and $24,000 for married couples filing jointly) may eliminate many families from having their charitable donations eligible for itemized deduction which may reduce charitable giving. A strategy may be to bunch the charitable donations together every other year and alternate between taking the standard deduction and itemizing deductions.

With the new tax reforms what are the potential benefits to small business?

Under previous tax law, all pass-through business income was taxed at the individual taxpayer’s marginal rate, as is most ordinary income. Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA), qualified pass-through business income will be addressed in a new IRC Section 199A. General rule under TCJA gives pass-through business entities a maximum deduction of 20% of the nonwage allocation of qualified business income (QBI) from the trade or business. But the deduction may be reduced, or eliminated, when taxable income exceeds the $157,000 (individual) and $315,000 (married couples).

When a taxpayer’s taxable income exceeds those limitations, the deduction will be the lesser of 20% of QBI or the greater of the two amounts produced by running wage and capital tests as follows: 50% of W-2 wages paid on behalf of the business; or the sum of 25% of W-2 wages and 2.5 percent of the unadjusted basis of all QBI property (depreciable business property).

If a person’s pass-through entity is in a “specified service business,” (attorneys, accountants, and financial professionals), the deduction is reduced pro rata for taxable incomes between $157,000 to $207,500 for individual filers and $315,000 to $415,000 for married filing jointly. The deduction is disallowed completely if taxable income exceeds $207,500 (individual) and $415,000 (married taxpayers filing jointly.)

Additional guidance is anticipated from the IRS or the U.S. Department of the Treasury regarding the pass-through taxation deduction. Although changes of how individual income is taxed will expire at the end of 2025, corporate tax changes provided for in the TCJA will be permanent. One of the largest tax cuts in the legislation lowers the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective Jan. 1, 2018. Furthermore, the TCJA completely repeals the corporate AMT. The act also imposes some limitations on certain corporate tax deductions, including those for net operating loss, business interest, and R&D expenditures.

Much has been written about the limits on the State and Local Tax (SALT) Deduction of $10,000. However, state, local and foreign property taxes and sales taxes reported on Schedule E are not capped. In other words, taxes paid on rental property held by individuals remains fully deductible and not subject to limitations. Mortgage interest paid on rental property indebtedness is fully deductible and not subject to the qualified residence limitations.

Kory Kavanewsky Branch Manager CMG Mortgage, Inc. 619-554-1327

What expenses, when it comes to rental property, could potentially be tax deductible?

Many rental home expenses are tax deductible including, but not limited to advertising, maintenance, insurance, mortgage interest, taxes, utilities and more. Save receipts and any other documentation, and take the deductions on Schedule E. Depreciation is another deductible expense for rental properties. Depreciation refers to the value of property that’s lost over time due to wear, tear, and obsolescence. In the case of improvements to a rental home, you can deduct a portion of that lost value every year over a set number of years. Carpeting and appliances in a rental home, for example, are usually depreciated over five years. You can begin depreciating the value of the entire rental property as soon as the rental home is ready for tenants and you hold it out for rent, even if you don’t yet have any tenants. In general, you depreciate the value of the home itself (but not the portion of the cost attributable to land) over 27.5 years. You’ll have to stop depreciating once you recover your cost or you stop renting out the home, whichever comes first.

Jefferson J. Rotherham, CFP® Director of Financial Planning The Gensler Group Wealth Management Solutions 619-554-1300

How will the tax law changes for 2018 including the new standard deduction impact charitable giving?

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 expanded the standard deduction ($12,000 Single, $24,000 Married) while at the same time reduced many itemized deductions (mortgage interest, state and local taxes and others). For those taxpayers that do itemize deductions and are firmly above the standard deduction threshold there should be minimal to no impact with their charitable giving. And conversely, for those taxpayers that are clearly below the standard deduction limits, there should be minimal if no impact with their charitable giving.

However, taxpayers that are close to the standard deduction threshold are more likely to be impacted. Is there an example of what type of taxpayer this could be? Possibly high-income single individuals who do not own property and/or married couples who do own property.

Fortunately, there is a strategy that can be utilized that is often called “clumping.” Instead of making yearly donations and receiving little-tono tax benefits one could instead make one large donation. For example, if one typically donates $2,500/year to a charity and this places them at or close to the standard deduction threshold they could instead donate $7,500 to a Donor Advised Fund (DAF). The individual would then be $5,000 above the standard deduction threshold and hopefully receive a meaningful tax benefit from itemizing. Over the next two years the individual would simply take the standard deduction. Meanwhile, the DAF would contribute $2,500/Year to the charity in question.

With the new tax reforms what are the potential benefits to small business?

With the new tax reforms most of us have heard about the reduction in corporate tax rates from 35% to 21%. However, many have not heard of the “Qualified Business Income” (QBI) deduction for pass-through entities. A pass-through business entity could be considered a sole proprietor, partnership, LLCs and S corporations. In essence, this permits these entities to be taxed on only 80% of their income. This could be a boon for many small businesses. Please consult your tax professional for more details.

What expenses, when it comes to rental property, could potentially be tax deductible?

A rental property produces income which can be offset with a variety of deductions that can help lower your tax bill. Some of the more standard items could be mortgage interest, property tax, repairs/maintenance, operating expenses, and depreciation. Some items that often get overlooked are tenant screening, legal fees, segmented depreciation and casualty losses. These deductions can be particularly meaningful for those in higher tax brackets, potentially saving 30 cents or more per dollar of income earned.

THEN & NOW

The Coronado Historical Association Presents

From the Collections Vault

by Vickie Stone, Registrar & Curator of Collections

So many exciting things are happening behind-the-scenes at the Coronado Historical Association. Much of the buzz is around our wonderful historic collection of over 1,500 objects. This year the Coronado Historical Association received the prestigious “California Revealed” grant.

California Revealed is a State Libraryfunded initiative to help California’s local heritage groups digitize, preserve, and make accessible online historically significant books, documents, and audiovisual recordings that capture California’s history.

To date, more than 200 California libraries, archives, and museums are participating in the project.

The Coronado Historical Association staff identified and selected one of a kind scrapbooks from the Association’s collections to be preserved by the project.

This smock was worn by Admiral Stockdale while he was a POW in Vietnam. It is one of the items from the Stockdale Family Collection that is being assessed for conservation at the museum.

The Association has over 421 scrapbooks in its collection. Sixty of the books will be digitally preserved this summer by the California Preservation Program which oversees the California Revealed project.

The museum is partnering with the Coronado Public Library to ensure that items are preserved from both organizations by the California Revealed program. In the fall, locals are invited to join both organizations for a celebration and showcase of this project.

In conjunction with the California Revealed program, staff and volunteers are hard at work to better preserve key pieces from the Association’s collection. Volunteer Julie McInnis, a trained conservation technician who previously worked at the

The Coronado Historical Association’s scrapbook collection takes up an entire bay of the storage vault.

Library of Congress, worked to rehouse objects into custom-made protective storage boxes. These boxes better utilize the space in the collections vault. More importantly, the boxes mitigate potential damage from environmental changes such as fluctuations in temperature and earthquakes.

In addition to preventing damage to objects, staff is also working with conservators to stabilize some of the most precious objects in our collection. The Stockdale Family Collection is a hallmark of the Coronado Historical Association’s extensive local collections. The artifacts and archival items include uniform pieces, Prisoner of War items, medals, insignia, awards, and writings from the extraordinary life and family story of Coronadans Vice Admiral James and Mrs. Sybil Stockdale. Conservators are assessing the items for much-needed conservation work in preparation for the exhibit The League of Wives: Vietnam’s POW/MIA Allies & Advocates which will be at the Association in 2019. These are just some of the exciting projects happening behindthe-scenes at the Historical Association. If you are interested to learn more about the history of Coronado, visit the museum to see the latest exhibit John D. Spreckels: The Man | The Legacy or join us for one of our many community-focused programming events.
