K-9s receive bulletproof vests

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com A grassroots effort has provided the Noblesville Police Dept. with much needed safety equipment for their police dogs. safety “There are a lot of things we want to do, but we are not financially able to,” said Noblesville Police Chief Kevin Jowitt, a former K-9 officer with the sheriffs’ office. “We owe them the duty to take care and protect them in dangerous situations.”

The effort to purchase ballistic vests for all police dogs was spearheaded by Noblesville resident Ron Wilson. Wilson was watching the news when he heard an Anderson Police Dept. K-9 was killed in the line of duty in Pendleton. A day later, Anderson lost a second canine after being shot. While reading a Kiwanis magazine, Wilson came across an article about a group in Boston that raised money for K-9 vests.

“After seven to eight phone calls I got a hold of the person who ran the program,” he said. “I called the chief (Jowitt) who just walked out of a meeting talking about vests for our K-9s. I asked, ‘Can I put together a plan to raise the money for you?’”

Masonic Lodge No. 57 of Noblesville sponsored the event and was able to purchase three vests for $3,875 with the help of local businesses, area dog lovers and several community service organizations

like the Elks Lodge, Sunrisers Kiwanis and Noon Kiwanis.

“Noblesville is a great community. If we have something that needs to be done, we do it,” Wilson said.

Jowitt said the department has owned bulletproof vests for Noblesville canines, but the last ones purchased are expired. Like human vests, the K-9 ones degrade and become unusable. Jowitt said the duration of K-9 vests is a little longer than human ones, which have to be replaced every five years.

“These vests are better than any other carrier I’ve seen,” Jowitt said.

K-9 officer Brad Purvis said police dogs like his partner, Macho, are sometimes on 15- to 30-foot leashes when patrolling.

“We put our dogs in so many dangerous situations,” he said. “There are places we don’t see where they go like crawl spaces, basements and sometimes other rooms of a house. This makes me feel a little more comfortable he’s at least protected.”

Purvis said the vests take only seconds to clip onto the dogs. The vests are also stab proof, which is especially important because Purvis said, “Everybody’s carrying a knife.”

“It protects all of the vital areas,” he said. “These vests will keep the dogs from getting broken ribs if they are kicked, punched or hit.”

DVD review

Columnist Christopher Lloyd warns readers that “6 Souls” is more interesting to ponder as a cinematic failure than as an actual movie. Despite starring some very talented performers, including Julianne Moore and Jonathan Rhys Meyers, what’s supposed to be scary instead comes across as incredibly goofy – and tiresome.

Mayor’s Charity Ball

Glasses clinked and auctioneers yelled on Friday June 21 at the Lucas Oil Estate in Carmel for this year’s ball. On the back patio snapshot of the estate, guests browsed the silent auction selection, chatted over drinks, and enjoyed an assortment of food. Following the cocktail hour, visitors sat down for a live auction. Some of the items auctioned were a wine tour in Napa Valley, jewelry, autographed Colts gear, and tickets to the Colbert Report. Bidders were encourged to push the bids higher than asking price for the sake of charity. All proceeds from the event went to various charities. (Photos by Jillyann Burns)

Compost pile ignites house fire

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

A compost fire in the Wellington North Housing addition caused approximately $300,000 in damges to a Noblesville residence on June 21.

Noblesville Fire Dept. Division safety Chief Rick Russell said a neighbor, Dawn Marien, and her daughter discovered the fire at 16418 Herriman Blvd. at 11:08 a.m. The two used a garden hose to extinguish the fire at the compost site. They then quickly noticed that the fire had burned through the vented soffit of the home and was burning throughout the attic space. Marien then notified Ray and Monica Bates that their home was on fire.

“At 11:11 a.m., fire suppression crews arrived on the scene noting smoke and flames coming from the roof near the chimney of the home,” Russell said. “An interior attack was made on the fire; however, crews had to be evacuated due to the intensity. Exterior attack lines were deployed at that time.”

Russell said the fire was extinguished an hour later. The fire originated outside the structure at a compost pile. Earlier in the morning, ashes from a cooking smoker used the previous evening were discarded.

On June 24, Noblesville firefighters responded to an institutional alarm at the Prairie Lakes Apartment complex in Noblesville at 8:33 p.m.

Fire suppression crews reported nothing showing from the exterior of the structure when they

arrived at 8:41 p.m. Once inside, prevention officer Todd Estes said initial crews reported no fire and that the sprinkler system activated due to the high heat levels in the origin of the fire.

“The sprinkler head activation quickly extinguished the fire,” Estes said.

Upon investigation and interviews with the tenant, the fire at 14283 Raven Way Apt. 108 was ruled as accidental. Estes said the fire was caused because a lamp was left in the on position on a bed under a pile of clothes.

“The sprinkler activation in this incident has been credited for saving any further damage to the structure as the fire was contained to the bedroom,” Estes said. “The only tenants displaced were the occupants of this apartment unit. All other occupants were allowed back in their apartment after the sprinkler head was replaced and the system was restored.”

Noblesville was assisted by Fishers Fire Department on this incident.

Apartments concern neighbors

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Several neighbors are concerned about a proposed $55-million apartment complex on the city’s southwest side. development Maefield Development Corp. is looking for the Noblesville City Council’s permission to construct a 611 unit apartment complex along Hazel Dell Road.

Steven D. Hardin, the attorney representing Hazel Dell LLC, told City Council members during their June 25 meeting that the project, tentatively named Noble West Apartments, would provide a $1.1-million tax increase for the city and $2.6 million in development fees like park and street impact and sewer.

Hardin described Noble West as unique “high-end” apartments aimed at young professionals and not families.

“This is not a family-oriented project. There are no three- or four-bedroom units,” Hardin said.

Hardin said that the complex would be built in three phases, each of about 200 units. He said the average rent would be between $900 and $1,850 per month.

The development originally called for 520 units when approved in 2003. In 2007, Maefield rezoned 8.39 areas and is asking the council to reverse that decision. Hardin is requesting the council increase the number of units from the 426 currently allowed (because 100 townhomes are already built) to 611. City Council member Mark Boice questions the increase and the impact it would make.

“It’s so far over our master plan. I have a hard time seeing how 611 units could fit there,” he said. “I don’t think we have the infrastructure in place for that many more units.”

Several nearby homeowners spoke out against the project at the council meeting raising concerns about increased traffic, student enrollment at Noble Crossing Elementary School, decreased property values and emergency management.

“That’s lots of residents to include in a small area,” Bill Puller said when questioning public safety. “Will there be an increase in police or fire?”

“Properties are really nice, but we’ve all seen properties that are really nice come to a halt,” said David Glenn. “If this fails, what’s plan B? The project will be discussed and possibly voted on at the July 9 city council meeting.

City’s keeper

This year’s parade marshal Pat Reed is passionate about all things Noblesville

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com On a humid, sunny afternoon day, Pat Reed, the 2013 Noblesville July 4th Parade and Fireworks Festival Grand Marshal, stands in the parking lot of The Lodge at Forest Park. To the longtime Noblesville Parks Cover Story Board member’s south, golfers are enjoying their round at Forest Park and summer camp children are running around playing games.

To his west, a family enjoys a picnic at a shelter and others can be seen on the playground. And to the north, the sounds of splashing and laughter can be heard from the aquatic center.

“It makes my heart glad,” Reed said with a smile.

Seeing youth enjoy the amenities of Forest Park reminds the 85-year-old of when he was a child living in Noblesville.

“When I was a kid, we sledded down the hill at the park, but we didn’t have cars to drive us,” Reed said. “We walked there and sledded all day and walked home. We had some long, cold days.”

During the 1930s, 40s and 50s, the Forest Park Inn was a restaurant and residents spent Sundays out dining and enjoying the park, log cabin, swimming pool and ballpark.

“Almost everybody was at the park at some time during the summer,” Reed recalled. “We’d

pack a lunch, go to the park and play on the playground, have lunch and then go swimming in the pool. We wrapped our sandwiches with wax bread paper so we could sit on it and go down the slide quicker.”

As an adult, Reed can still be spotted at Forest Park.

“I’ve loved Forest Park all my life, and I still love it,” he said. “I’m out there every day. If we

“My dad was on the city council four or five times. He was elected or appointed in the ’30s and ’40s,” Reed said. “When I was a kid, dad was on the council and when I became of age, I ran for council.”

Reed served on the Noblesville City Council from 1976 to 1979. During that time he also served on the plan commission, which he has now done for 30 years. He also was mayor pro tem for Robert Wical - occasionally.

“He wasn’t out of town too much,” Reed joked.

During his life, he’s worked at Firestone from 1950 to 1990, was a Noblesville realtor for 60 years, was married to his high school sweetheart (Jane Alice Martz Reed) for 61 years before her death in November, and has lived in the same house for 62 years.

“His passion and knowledge of Noblesville make him an invaluable asset to the city and a mentor to me,” Noblesville Parks Director Don Seal said.

“Pat has given back to this community so much through the years. We appreciate all he has done for the city, especially through his longtime service on the parks board and plan commission,” said Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear.

When Reed was 10, he began working as a newspaper delivery boy and during the summers before and after his senior year, he was the “ice man.”

“His passion and knowledge of Noblesville make him an invaluable asset to the city and a mentor to me,” Noblesville Parks Director Don Seal said. have a heavy snow, I’ll see if we’re cleaning the walk off.”

Reed was appointed by Mayor Pat Logan to the park board in 1989 and is now in his 26th year. Public service was instilled in Reed from his parents, Helen and Frank Reed, who were also lifelong residents of Noblesville. In addition to working for Hare Chevrolet for 61 years, Reed’s father served the city as a council member for two decades.

cents depending on size. I was about in everybody’s kitchen because refrigerators weren’t very popular in that day,” he said.

It was the experience in and out of people’s homes that inspired Reed to become a realtor. In 1950, Reed earned his license after seeing an ad about a home for sale.

“I knew every house that was for sale, and I had been in every one of them,” he said, adding he wished he kept track of exactly how many during his 60 years as a realtor. “I’ve sold an awful lot of homes in Noblesville to and for people.”

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP Balanced calendar: Ready or not …

On par It is our position that honoring the service of fallen Marines through the establishment of academic scholarships in their names, is a noble commemoration of their sacrifice for the freedom of our country. The 2013 Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation Golf Tournament is scheduled for Sept. 12 at Pebble Brook Golf Club in Noblesville. Funds raised from the tournament will be used to establish a scholarship in the name of 2013 Honoree PFC Deryk Hallal, an Indianapolis native and graduate of North Central High School. Deryk was killed in action in Fallujah, Iraq, in 2004.

The scholarships are administered by the national office of the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation. This is the third year proceeds from the golf tournament have been used to establish a scholarship in the name of a fallen Marine. The 2012 Honoree was Sgt. Morgan Strader and the 2011 Honoree was Sgt. John Rankel. The long-term mission is to establish a perpetual scholarship in the name of each Marine from central Indiana that has been killed fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan since Sept.

11, 2001. Unfortunately, it will take many years to make that happen.

Straining the bath water Commentary by Terry Anker Like all too many things in my life, my cell phone is beginning to show a little wear and tear. It is a work horse, to be sure, and has traveled the world, taken and sent messages, emails and calls literally tens of thousands of times throughout the years; but after scores of parking lot drops (I often rest the phone in my lap while on a short drive and then forget it before I get out of the car – leading to many joyous occasions that find me on my belly reaching under the adjacent auto where various parts have landed after the phone hit the pavement), my trusty cell phone may be reaching the end of it useful life.

Aside from the dents, dings and scratches of a well-lived existence, it is beginning to exhibit indications of memory limitations and processing difficulties. While one could certainly take this analogy to refer to the aging process we humans endure, for now it is enough to paraphrase

famed psychotherapist Sigmund Freud in asserting that sometimes a phone is just a phone.

Replacing the device would be easy enough.

Cell phone stores are as ubiquitous on the strip center landscape as fast food restaurants. But I must admit, as my hair grays and my waistline expands I have become more inclined to replace what I have with another of exactly what I had before. Today, mine is a Windows phone. Certainly, Android and Apple are great products. But, I am settled. My young staff encourages me to stay ever current. And, I am pleased that they do. Is there a way to move ahead and stay the same? The shape, quirks and function are familiar to me. How do we throw out the bath water and make sure to keep the baby behind?

It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.

- Henry David Thoreau

When it was announced that Noblesville Schools would adopt a balanced calendar for the 2013-14 academic year, we were strongly opposed to it. We cited traditional family vacation time, the need for additional after-school care, among other elements, as being critical factors – or more to the point, a burden on parents.

Now, with the advent of that calendar coming Aug. 1, we’ve softened our stance a bit.

When viewed as a whole, the balanced calendar might just make sense. (We reserve the right to render a judgment at some point after the calendar has been implemented and the bugs have been worked out. Don’t kid yourself, because there will be bugs. But, that’s OK; any new initiative has them.)

So, by our count, there will be 50 days of school before the first break comes along, and that would be fall break from Oct. 14-25. We can see where that would prove beneficial.

Then, the kids go back for 22 days before the traditional Thanksgiving break, followed by 15 days before the Dec. 23-Jan. 7 Christmas break.

(As we consider it, we find ourselves thinking, Heck, yes, that would have been nice for us back in the day!) Following that, it’s 58 days of school before a two-week spring break, and then 34 days to wrap up the year before a nine-week summer vacation. There are 15 early release days in the mix, as well as government holidays and four flex days the first week of June.

Of course, we hope it goes flawlessly, but we’ll have to see. It’ll take a concerted effort by the schools, the students and the parents to make it a success. We believe that can happen, and we wish all the parties good luck.

Bored jar is ready for donations Commentary by Danielle Wilson

My prayer for summer: “Powers that Be, grant me the serenity to endure six more weeks of no school, courage to face the rainy humor days, and wisdom to know when to call the grandparents.” Yes, my friends, summer vacation is upon us, and this year I am more confident than ever that I will not only survive, but actually enjoy it. With the help of all the major religions’ deities and some very careful planning, you, too, can have a great summer!

Along that note, Doo and I held a family meeting in June where we hammered out the details for a homicide-free July. Our four children were invited to share their thoughts, and as expected, the biggest sticking point was about Xbox. Our boys argued that since it’s summer, they should be able to do whatever they want, including wasting weeks at a time sniping virtual zombies.

We felt it might lead to serial killer status. Decision? Two hours max a day. Tough, kids!

Another bone of contention was television.

Again, our two boys spearheaded the debate.

Essentially they felt that if they couldn’t watch at least a half-day’s worth of “Family Guy,” they would never know true happiness. We rebutted with something called a “book.” Bottom line?

One hour a day, plus they have to participate in the library’s reading program. I’ll certainly take the free ice cream and bouncy ball if they don’t

want them.

Also in the plan, the reinstatement of the “I’m bored” jar, a repository for the dollar fines handed out to anyone muttering any derivative of the word “boring.” Proceeds will go to an endof-summer Dairy Queen bonanza.

Once again, to further enhance this summer’s salt mine experience, “Amish day” will occur weekly. It was proposed unwittingly two years ago by our then 9-year-old son who, at the aforementioned decision to limit electronic interaction, cried, “I’m not going all Amish!” Should have kept your mouth shut Andrew, for you will indeed go Amish. No video games, computers, or television for one whole day. Our kids will be forced to use their imaginations and find old-fashioned forms of amusement. It may not work, but their discomfort should prove highly entertaining.

So, the chore chart is up and rockin’, and the Forced Family Game night schedule (“You will have fun, damn it!”) is in full swing. We’re keeping our fingers crossed that our careful planning will result in a blissful summer vacation. If not, I’m more than prepared to offer up ritualistic sacrifices to any god out there. They take children, right? Peace out.

Decleratation did not include jeeter Commentary by Mike Redmond

The Fourth of July is fast approaching. This means fireworks. Lots of them. A great many of which seem to have come into the humor possession of the goobers who moved in down the street a few weeks ago, who have been busily and noisily getting a head start on celebrating America’s independence.

This raises a conflict in me.

For most of my life I have been of two minds about fireworks. On the one hand, I liked them.

And on the other hand, I REALLY liked them.

But now I see a third hand, and it is holding up a sign saying fireworks are fine in their time and place, but their time is not 10 p.m. on a mid-June evening and their place is not across the street and down the block a little.

Of course, we’re dealing with morons here.

You can tell by the way they go about setting off their explosives. There are no cannonades, no fusillades, no rapid-fire bursts. Oh, no. They do it one at a time. You’ll hear a sharp report followed by the giggles of people who think they have done something really amusing: BANG! Hee hee hee hee hee. Then you get a couple of minutes of silence before the next:BANG! Hee hee hee hee hee.

Something tells me this was not what Jefferson, Adams and Franklin had in mind when they sat down to hash out the Declaration of Inde-

Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law

GRAND OPENING SPECIAL

pendence. I just can’t imagine John Adams telling Tom Jefferson to “put something in there about the inalienable right of jeeters to set off firecrackers in the most annoying fashion possible.”

Now, don’t get me wrong. I like a good fireworks display. You’ll notice I said a good one. I am not thinking of some doofus in his backyard shooting Roman candles into the air. Which invariably happens while the big fireworks are going on. Oh, come on. Like people are going to turn their attention away from the real fireworks to watch a bunch of pathetic pink fireballs that can barely clear the garage roof.

Boy, I’m grouchy. Lack of sleep will do that to you, you know. That and frustration with the alarming lack of imagination shown by the artillery division down the street.

Plainly said, I have had it up to here with this moronic BANG hee hee hee stuff.

I guess the only thing for me to do is to fight back. A man can only take so much. It is time for action.

No, I’m not going to call the cops. I’m going to go get a bag of cherry bombs and show them how it’s done. Then we’ll see who gets to hee hee hee.

What is a reverse tummy tuck?

Commentary by Barry Eppley

You won’t know you really worked out till TOMORROW!

Q: I have some loose skin around and above my belly button after my tummy tuck which was three years aesthetics ago. I never thought it was the tightest above my belly button right after surgery but the skin seems to have gotten a little more loose. I’d never heard of a reverse tummy tuck before I read about it online and am now curious about how the procedure works and where the scars would be placed?

A: The reverse tummy tuck is a distant cousin to the traditional tummy tuck, not only in location but to how it is performed to some degree.

For those women who have loose skin around and above the belly button but not below it or have had a prior tummy tuck with loose residual skin above the belly button, a reverse or superi-

orly-based tummy tuck is the only skin removal option. A crescent of skin and fat is removed along the lower breast folds and across the sternum. This lifts the tummy above the belly button, just like pulling up with your hands along your rib cage. This places most of the scar along the breast fold with the exception of a small area that crosses the sternum. Unlike a traditional tummy tuck, no muscle usually needs to be tightened. In some reverse tummy tuck patients, I have only removed skin and fold under the breasts, keeping the scar from crossing the sternum. In the properly selected patient, this can be a very good option if one can accept a scar along the lower breast folds.

Talking health – In the last three decades, childhood obesity has tripled, according to the CDC, which means some parents might be having tough discussions about weight. According to a new study, when parents chat with their kids about losing weight, it leads to a higher likelihood of negative behaviors increasing. Instead, parents should link their conversations to health and strength. – www.webmd.com

County’s jobless rate lowest news@currentinwestfield.com

The Dept. of Workforce Development has reported that Indiana’s unemployment rate decreased to 8.3 percent in May, economy down from 8.5 percent a month earlier, as the state’s private sector added 9,000 jobs.

The agency said the increase in private sector jobs is the largest monthly increase in Indiana since February 2012. Growth occurred at twice the national average for the month (0.4 percent vs. 0.2 percent). Commissioner Scott Sander said private sector employment in the Hoosier State is now at pre-recession levels not seen since July 2008.

Area United States May 2013 May 2012 Indiana May 2013 May 2012 Hamilton Co. May 2013 May 2012 Noblesville May 2013 May 2012

“May was quite a positive month for job growth in the Hoosier State,” he said. “Most tangible employment measures seem to be trending in the right direction for the moment, which is cause for cautious optimism.”

Sanders said Indiana has added 45,300 private sector jobs during the past year, more than a third of which have occurred since the start of 2013. He said 13 percent of private-sector growth during the past year has come from manufacturing.

Nine of Indiana’s 92 counties have an unemployment rate of 10 percent or higher, while just two have rates below 6 percent. Hamilton County’s rate of 5.6 percent was the lowest in the state.

Fireworks safety tips

Commentary by Ben Coe

Bottle rockets and firecrackers can fly in any direction and may explode on or near someone instead of up in the air. SparInsurance klers are also a huge risk, as they burn at very high temperatures and are often given to children too young to use them safely. All fireworks pose potential risks of burn, blindness and other injury.

When using fireworks, always plan carefully in advance for who will shoot them and what safety precautions you will have in place. Here are some suggestions to ensure safety and avoid accidents: • Use fireworks and sparklers outdoors only.

• Only use fireworks if they are legal where you live (check both state and local laws).

The National Council on Fireworks Safety provides easy-to-use information on state laws at www.fireworksafety.org.

• Always have a hose or water bucket handy.

• Only use fireworks as intended. Do not alter or combine them, and do not use homemade fireworks.

• Keep spectators a safe distance away.

• Wear safety goggles when handling or shooting off fireworks.

• Do not shoot fireworks off if under the influence of alcohol.

• Never give sparklers to young children.

• Show children how to properly hold sparklers, how to stay far enough away from other children and what not to do (throw, run or fight with sparkler in hand) – but supervise closely, regardless.

• Point fireworks away from people, homes, trees, etc.

• Never try to relight a dud (a firework that didn’t properly ignite).

• Soak all firework debris in water before throwing it away.

• Do not carry fireworks in your pocket or shoot them from metal or glass containers.

• Never let children play with fireworks unsupervised.

• Make sure pets are secure and inside before setting off any fireworks that may scare them or harm their sensitive ears.

FROM LAWSON DENTAL For all that you do as teachers and school employees for our children, our community and our world, Dr. Lawson and her team at Lawson Dental would like to offer you a great big

Question: “I’m wondering how you differentiate between the words ‘on’ and ‘onto?’ Like in the sentence: ‘My cat grammar guy jumped on my head.’

Should it be ‘onto?’”

Answer: Your cat does that too? We recently had a kitten move in with us, and her favorite place seems to be my face, particularly when I’m trying to catch a few winks. Anyway … on to our grammar question.

There are actually three prepositions worth learning about here: “on,” “onto” and “on to.” “On” and “onto” are both used to refer to a position in relation to a concrete noun. “On to,” which we’ll talk about last, can be a bit more abstract.

“On,” to allow the Merriam-Webster its moment, is used as “a function word to indicate position in contact with and supported by the top surface of” something. You can sit on a chair.

A cup can rest on a table. Your cat can lie on your keyboard.

“Onto” is used to indicate movement to a position on an object. “Onto” is an “action preposition,” if there were such a thing. You walk onto a stage. You fall onto your bed. Your cat leaps onto your face. You get the picture.

“On to” is used abstractly to indicate progress toward something, e.g. “moving on to bigger and better things.” “On to” is not used with concrete nouns.

And so, back to your original question: Your cat jumped onto your head. Once there, it rested on your head. And while I was writing this column, my kitten leapt onto my computer mouse several times. I guess cats know their prey, even in our digital age. And now you know how to use “on,” “onto” and “on to.”

What to do with that watermelon Commentary by Ashley Phipps

I don’t know what I was thinking the other day when a bought an entire watermelon for my small family of four. My husband and food I can only eat so much watermelon and my children are so young that they don’t eat much either. But I didn’t want my watermelon to go to waste, so I came up with the perfect solution: fresh watermelon lemonade.

Oh my goodness... I love lemonade, and I’ve tried many flavored varieties, but not much beats the taste of fresh watermelon lemonade!

You can, of course, make the lemonade base of this drink from scratch, but I really think that Simply Lemon is a great tart and tangy lemonade so I used this as my base for my drink. Just keeping it simple around here.

Here’s how to make watermelon lemonade:

Watermelon Lemonade \Ingredients: 1/2 cup Simply Lemonade (or from scratch); Approximately 1 cup seedless watermelon Directions: Blend watermelon chunks in a blender until it becomes smooth. No need to add anything else to the blender, just put the watermelon in there and blend away. (Also, no need to take the white seeds out, those will blend up.) Combine 1/2 cup lemonade with 1/2 cup watermelon juice. Serve over ice.

I took a glass out to my husband who was working in the yard, and he thought it was so delicious. My kids both loved it, too. And of course, so did I. It is a little bit tart, but plenty of sweet and

What’s my favorite plant?

Commentary by Holly Lindzy

If I had a dollar for every time I was asked to name my favorite plant, I could retire, but I wouldn’t.

Outdoors I love plants. And I love to run my mouth about my opinions, so when someone asks me about my favorites, a puppy dog tail wags in my head. Granted, my answer often depends on the time of year and what’s in bloom. But, I have my go-to, (drumroll, please) the magnificent Oakleaf Hydrangea.

Any plant that’s special to me has to have more than one season of interest. I mean, if you’re going to spend a designated dollar amount on one plant, doesn’t that just make sense? So, if it’s got an amazing bloom and great fall color, for instance, it’s on the list.

Now, back to my Oakleaf which bears so many wonderful attributes I wonder whether I can fit them all in my dedicated space of 300 words. Right now, I am divinely smitten with its plump form and plentiful bloom. Planted in part sun about five years ago, my 6-foot by 6-foot shrub is covered in huge clusters of white blooms bobbing atop carefree, oak leaf shaped foliage which will take on a red-purple fall color.

By then, the flower heads will have aged to a handsome pink. (Yes, pink!) And when the plant is spent, dried blooms will remain to accompany the peeling bark of the stems. Need I say more?

But wait. There is more. People may think

(with frowns on their faces, I’m sure) they don’t have the space for such a massive shrub. Fret not, for there are dwarf varieties equally as beautiful. Sikes, Pee Wee or Ruby Slippers will fit your smaller space in part sun and be just as stunning and care free.

So, there you have it – my all-time favorite plant and secret to traffic-stopping, conversation-starting garden design: Oakleaf Hydrangea as an anchor or focal point.

That’s my opinion. No dollar necessary.

Appreciate your freedom to create custom project Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Incredible backyard living spaces will be exhausted by week’s end, as will fortunate owners and guests as entertaining thrives and we celebrate our freedoms and the luxury of residing in the greatest country on this planet.

Outdoors This luxurious project is not typical by any means. Custom projects are not intended to be, regardless of size. Fortunately “custom” does not have to mean expensive… just well designed! The finished space should speak to you, addressing how it will be enjoyed and the size of gatherings you will appreciate during the years. Freedom to make those decisions, within financial constraints, is something we take for granted. Sure, irritating construction drawings and building permits are sometimes required and homeowner’s associations are increasingly commanding their feedback.

After multiple designs, we landed on this spacious design for the elegant lanais. Creating a clipped roofline to plant the custom brick/mortar and cobblestone fireplace was a brilliant design element that pulled the space inward and suggests just the correct amount of privacy. Travertine flooring on the outside of the see-through fireplace was a huge bonus and marries well with the traditional red clay paver patio under roof. Gorgeous ceiling fans provide a nice breeze when necessary.

This project, and gracious career, reminds me of two of my favorite leader’s quotes: “Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.” Ronald Reagan “For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respect and enhances the freedom of others.” Nelson Mandela However you choose to celebrate July 4th, please pause a moment to thank the men, women, volunteers and leaders who have served bravely to cause freedom to prevail.

The benefits of distressed flooring are many

Commentary by David Decker

In case you hadn't noticed, designers have a passion for rediscovering old things and making them feel new and modern again. Such is the case for distressed hardwood indoors flooring, a new hardwood trend that has become a popular choice for homeowners. These hardwood designs are scraped, either by hand or a machines, to give them a weathered, aged appearance. The result is an edgy, contemporary look that many homeowners love.

In the past, many homeowners replaced or hid their old, worn hardwood flooring under carpeting. So why has distressed hardwood become popular today? For one, many people love the lived-in feel of distressed hardwood. It can add character and a rustic feel to a room, without overpowering the rest of the decor. And because the floors are already distressed, the everyday wear and tear that inevitably occurs to hardwood flooring will not be noticeable. This makes it a great flooring option for homeowners with pets that may otherwise damage brand-new planks.

There are two ways to create the texture of distressed flooring. The first involves a handscraping process where each board is distressed by a craftsman. The second uses a machine to mimic the look by sanding and wearing the surface. Because they require a great deal of

istic and unique. The craftsman can mimic wormholes, dents, splits and other characters that mimic the natural appearance of worn wood.

Machine-made floors simply scrape a repeating patterns across the wood, which gives the floors a more artificial feel.

Distressed hardwood can come in a variety of finishes, but you will likely want to have your flooring prefinished by the manufacturer.

This is because the preparation for distressed hardwood is much different than traditional hardwood floors. The sanding that prepares the hardwood floor for finish can actually destroy the distressed look of the flooring.

Distressed hardwood is available in a number of designs and styles. Two popular distressed solid wood choices are hickory and walnut, but there are many options to choose from. Or you could go with an engineered wood option, which would increase the number of colors and looks available to you. Additionally, you could choose to stain or varnish your distressed flooring for added effect. A darker stain or varnish will emphasize the scraped surface because it find its way into the cracks of the hardwood.

Already stressed flooring can hide future damage to floors. (Submitted photo)
