According to Eugene Bush, Assistant Fire Chief with the Newcomb Volunteer Fire Department, proprietors Donna and Rebecca Draper and Warren Kirby, who live in an adjoined apartment, awoke in the night to the sound of the fire alarm. They then discovered the fire in the building near a utility closet.

Unable to contain the flames, they called 911 and the department arrived on the scene in under 10 minutes.

All three, along with the family dog, made it out of the building without injury.

INDIAN LAKE — Harold Ford, Laura Lucy and Band will perform their show, “The Spirit of Johnny Cash,” at the Indian Lake Theater Saturday, March 28, 7 p.m., to benefit local theater troupe, “The Cabin Fever Players’” 2016 musical.

The international act has met with considerable success over the six years they have been active. According to Ford, the group breaks attendance records at every fair they play, and they have sold out both of their previous shows in Indian Lake. When the group performed at Shepard’s Park in Lake George, they played to an audience of 5,000, he said.

Ford is the only Johnny Cash tribute artist endorsed by the late music iconÕ s brother, Tommy Cash, with whom he continues to collaborate.

Cash told Ford, “Nobody in the world can do a solo of my brother like you.”

“We’ve been friends ever since,” Ford said. “With John’s brother on board, it becomes more than just a tribute.”

That’s not all that sets Ford apart from the other Cash tribute artists, though. When Ford takes the stage, he does not introduce himself to the crowd as Cash. “There is no impersonating going on,” Ford said.

“It’s not about ego—it’s about the music.”

Ford aims not only to celebrate the “Man in Black’s” extensive catalogue, but to capture his spirit on the stage.

Continued from page 1 and Minerva, battled the blaze from 3:45 a.m. until 9:45 a.m, Bush said.

An estimated 60,000 gallons of water was used to distinguish the conflagration.

A pickup truck was also destroyed in the fire, and a camper trailer was damaged by the heat and smoke.

Community speaks out

Supervisor George Cannon commended the family on their swift exit from the building.

“The best thing you can do is to get out of there with your health intact,” he said.

Bush seconded the notion: “They got out with their lives--they can be thankful for that,” he said.

A homeowner adjacent to the store awoke to the sound of screams from outside her bedroom window.

The neighbor, who requested anonymity as a condition of speaking to the News Enterprise, said she could feel the heat of the fire.

“Within 20 minutes the building was completely engulfed,” the neighbor said.

Apart from the devastation the fire has caused its resident owners, the loss of W.D.Õ s will have a major effect on the community.

The store’s March 2011 opening marked a new era in the historic building’s saga and provided a necessary service to Newcomb citizens.

“It wasn’t only their business, it was their home, too,” said Nathan Bush.

The building, originally built in 1941, was moved via truck to Newcomb from Tahawus in the early 1960s. It was owned by the Sweet family for nearly 13 years.

Since then, it has since changed ownership twice.

Prior to the fire, W.D.’s served as a popular meeting place where community members could have a drink and see a familiar face, as well as a vital source of groceries for the community.

In response to the fire, the Newcomb community has banded together to help the family.

“We come together in times like these,” said Nathan Bush.

Benefit scheduled

Local tavern owner Mike Garrand will host a fundraiser this Sunday, March 29, at noon at the Newcomb House, where there will be food, live music, a 50/50 raffle and a silent auction to raise funds for the victims.

The event requires a $10 donation at the door, which includes a meal.

Monetary donations are encouraged and can be sent to Kevin Bolan at the Newcomb Health Center.

“That’s the one thing about this town--when somebody does have a tragedy, everyone helps out,” said the neighbor.

Harold Ford and his band will perform their Johnny Cash tribute show at the Indian Lake Theater Saturday, March 28, at 7 p.m.

Continued from page 1 “I want to keep this alive,” he said. “The spirit of the music and the spirit of the message.”

Ford is not alone at center stage, however; complementing him will be Laura Lucy in the role of June Carter Cash, who embodies June’s playful nature as the endearing harmonies of Johnny and June come alive.

Ford is a dead-ringer for Cash, from his Nashville swagger to his resounding baritone voice. Tommy Cash is not the only one who knew the artist personally to be touched by Ford’s show and his likeness to Cash.

“I did a song once and a couple of John’s friends came up to me with tears in their eyes,” he said.

For Ford, the show is all about inspiring people, particularly his younger audience, in whom he hopes to kindle a musical fire to match his own.

“Don’t worry about nerves, about stage fright,” he tells them.

“Just think about the music. That’s what really matters.”

Tickets are $20, and can be purchased at the Indian Lake Town Offices; Indian Lake Chamber of Commerce; Puterko’s Family Pizzeria; Pines Hardware or from any Cabin Fever Player. Tickets can be purchased by phone at 648-5828 or online at TheSpiritofJohnnyCash.com.

Minerva Odyssey of the Mind team competes in Glens Falls

By Mike Corey

denpubs@denpubs.com GLENS FALLS — Villainy was afoot (and at hand) for a group of students from Minerva Central School this past Saturday, March 14 at Glens Falls High School.

But, along with its villain, the group had directors and silent movie actors, amazing musical instruments, and lots of fabulous props and set pieces.

The occasion was the annual Region 6 Odyssey of the Mind event coordinated by the Washington/Saratoga/Warren/Hamilton/Essex BOCES, and the high school in Glens Falls was alive with students producing and participating in plenty of creative and fun activities.

As a problem-solving competition for students of all ages, Odyssey of the Mind teaches kids creative team problem-solving methods while having fun at the same time. Students learn how to identify challenges and then think creatively to solve those problems.

The Minerva Central School team was comprised of six students, ranging from third to eighth grade. Their long term problem was called “Silent Movie,” and required them to work cooperatively to produce and act in a silent movie not unlike the old silent films that involved subtitles, music, and plenty of action.

The Minerva team placed third out of a very

competitive field of seven teams from around the BOCES area, and brought home a well-deserved trophy.

Sue Montgomery Corey, coach of the Minerva team, was very happy with how well her kids performed.

“I am very proud of my team and its effort – I don’t think I’ve ever had a group that scored as high as it did in the style category,” she said.

Minerva Central School was one of 17 schools from around the area that sent at least one team for the competition.

Members of the Minerva team included Kali Dugan, Emmett Gelber, Henry Gelber, Devin Plumley, Andrew Taylor, and Paige Warrington.

Photo documentarian for the team was Grant Printy.

The team formed in October and worked hard to put together a great performance. Corey thanked all her team’s parents for their patience and to Minerva Central and chool faculty and staff for the use of its space and materials.

The team is looking forward to performing its “Silent Movie” for students at MCS during Irish Pride Week (March 16 – March 20).

Members of the Minerva Central School Odyessy of the Mind team include, standing: Henry Gelber, Devin Plumley, Andrew Taylor, Grant Printy, Sue Montgomery Corey; Crouching: Emmett Gelber, Kali Dugan, and Paige Warrington.

Minerva Maple Weekends continue with plenty of items to sample

By Mike Corey

denpubs@denpubs.com MINERVA — On the weekend of March 28-29, maple sugaring farms across New York State will again participate in Maple Weekends, where you can visit the sugaring operations and enjoy the products of the amazing maple sugaring process on nearby farms.

In the Minerva, one place is at Maple Knoll Farm, located on the 14th Road.

Like other participating maple sugar farms across the state, Maple Knoll Farm (owned and operated by Eric Klippel) is providing an open house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on March 28-29.

You can sample the maple products they offer, homemade donuts and beverages, witness the maple syrup-making process and have an opportunity to purchase maple sugar products.

On a cold March 22, a visit to the syrup-making operation at Maple Knolls Farm provided an opportunity to see how the process works. Despite the lack of flow, sap was being boiled and syrup was being made.

To find out more about the state-wide effort, check out the website atnysmaple.com.

New fire hall and emergency center being planned for Indian Lk.

By Bill Quinlivan

denpubs@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — During the March Indian Lake Town Board meeting, plans for a new fire hall and emergency center at the long defunct Indian Lake Market location were unveiled.

Members of the Indian Lake Volunteer Fire Department and Indian Lake District 1 Board of Fire Commissioners were on hand to outline for the town board where the project stands at this point. In the process, the board heard the particulars of and concerns over the tight conditions in the current fire hall.

Fire Commissioner Kim Mitchell informed the board there are ongoing negotiations with the building’s owner with a current figure of $350,000 being discussed. This figure is accompanied by contingen-

cies the building could be made to work for its intended use and not cost more than building a new building from the ground up.

While negotiations are ongoing, the fire commissioners have hired the firm of Bernier, Carr and Associates (BCA) to envision and engineer plans and estimates for transforming the market building into a Fire and Emergency Center.

Rick Tague, A.I.A., one of the principals of BCA, accompanied the fire officials to the board meeting and outlined the physical upgrades needed to transform the building. Not the least of the upgrades is the need to bring the roof structure up to current standards for snow load on a building for emergency use.

Tague estimates that the bottom line costs for acquisition, physical transition and final build-out will be $1.6 million.

Despite the seemingly high cost of the project,

Commissioner Mitchell pointed out to the town board that when an estimate to build out a larger, 20,000 sq. ft. project, brand new from the ground up, the estimate came in at $4.6 million. The current project would result in approximately 8,000 square feet, deemed adequate for the defined use and needs of the Fire Department and at the much lower estimated costs.

When questioned about plans for the current fire hall across Rt. 28, the town board was told that the Fire Department would like to keep the current hall as a community center of sorts, to be rented out for various events. It was also mentioned as a potential site for the town’s weekly farmer’s market.

While negotiations continue for the purchase of the building, the Fire Commissioners are diligently searching out sources of funding. The purchase will be subject to approval by referendum.

Current ILCSD transportation practice found to be beyond legal authority

By Bill Quinlivan

denpubs@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — New York Education Law requires that,”non-city school districts provide transportation for all children in grades K-8 who live more than two miles from the school they legally attend and for all children in grades 9-12 who live more than three miles from the school they legally attend, up to a distance of 15 miles.”

Due to a recent drop-off incident involving an ILCSD student, there has been a review of the current practices surrounding the transportation of students. During the March Board of Education Meeting, it became clear that the current practices go far beyond the legal requirements.

It was discovered that student pick-up and drop-off is occurring in distances as close as an estimated 200 yards.

What’s more, current practices allow for what was referred to as, “mommy notes,” that request or direct the pick-up and drop-off to be moved to more parent-convenient locations, with these directions often times being changed multiple times in a given day and at or near the time of school closing.

As Jon Voorhees, President of the ILCS BOE, suggested, this is in one way a reflection of how hard ILCSD tries to work with the needs of the students and parents within the district, but it is also a recipe that opens up opportunities for problems.

Discussions further enlightened Voorhees as to the fact that what is being done is beyond current NYSED regulations.

Voorhees raised his concern about what liability exposure this represents to

the district should something happen during the transport process. He voiced his opinion a policy needs to be formulated and it should be done immediately.

This was not the view of board Vice President, David Harrington, who felt that such a policy should not be undertaken as a “knee-jerk reaction,” and should be done with the considered thought and input of the entire board (members Phillip Monthony and Michelle Hutchins being absent).

Board member Robert Lewin supported Harrington in the feeling that more time was needed to hammer out a policy that served the needs of the district.

After much deliberation by the board over the issue, ILCSD Superintendent, Mark Brand raised the issue that,” the current practices are being undertaken without legal authority.”

Despite the fact that these practices have been going on for some time, Brand pointed out practices such as the ones being undertaken need to be formalized into a policy and must be placed in front of the voters to receive authority to extend practices beyond NYSED Transportation Regulations.

Brand was aware and explained the reasons for needing to go to the voters – increased costs of such practices and other implications that have a direct impact on budgets and resulting tax levies and student safety.

It was recognized by the board that an ILCSD Transportation Policy needed to be formalized with the input of the full board. Voorhees suggested that input should be gathered from the community as to the practices that will be allowable in the new policy. Once drafted it will be placed in front of the voters.

The subject will be placed on the agenda for a shared decision committee meeting that will take place March 26. A preliminary target of July was discussed for the deadline to have a policy formalized, ready to go to the voters and in place for the start of the 2015/2016 school year.

INDIAN LAKE — Despite the fact the second draft of the upcoming budget for the Indian Lake Central School District is $30,000 over this year’s cap of 3.64 percent, the board of education is optimistic that the final draft will not exceed it.

Specifically, this draft totals $6,248,979,000, nearly $250,000 above the current budget of $6,070,339, and nearly $1 million above the 2013-14 Budget ($5,294,374.54), all in the face of declining student populations.

The current draft would result in a tax levy of $4,762,479, but the board’s optimism is driven by some upcoming staff attrition, cut backs in requisitions by teaching staff and the fact the current draft assumes no increase in state aid, which may happen this year.

For residents interested in getting involved with the presentation of the next round of the budget, the next regular meeting of the Board of Education will be April 21 at 7 p.m. in the ILCS cafeteria.

Interview with Chief Donohue

T

he Living History program of Johnsburg Historical Society continues to gather stories of town residents, told in their own words, for the archives of the Society. Recent interviews have included Lucy Ross, Harold Ross, Bruce and Amy Cleveland and John Donohue.

The North River firehouse was the site of the Friday, Jan. 30 interview with John Donohue, North River Fire Company Chief. Although he had assisted at a house fire in Minerva the night before, cold and wet by the time he returned home, Chief Donohue was willing to share his time and his story with interviewer Kathy Maiorana and cameraman David Braley.

Asked about the outcome of that Minerva house fire, Chief Donohue said, “It was a good outcome. No injuries, no fatalities. But sadly the house was a total loss.” His fire company’s task was to fill tankers with water from the dam and pump that water, 1400 gallons, into trucks from other companies as they arrived.

Born in Indian Lake but a long-time resident of North River, Chief Donohue works full-time as a mechanic on the lifts at Gore Mountain. In his “spare” time he has been fighting fires for the North River Fire Company since 1997.

Standing among the latest in fire fighting equipment, Chief Donohue told the story of the earliest days of the fire company before there were fire trucks or a fire house. Fire fighting depended upon wagons, hoses and portable pumps transported by private vehicles. One of those vehicles is displayed on the front lawn of the Chief’s 13th Lake Road home. Some equipment was stored at the barn which still stands on the Glenn Smith property, Rt. 28.

The earliest membership card for the department is dated 1950 and belonged to Jim Burns, the first chief. The company was incorporated in 1954.

An extraordinary bit of good luck came to the fire company in

Those men arranged for the donation of a 1927 fire truck from Port Washington to North River. The residents worked quickly to erect a building for the “new” truck. That same building is used today, although it was expanded to accommodate additional equipment.

A 24 foot heavy one-piece ladder, original to that first truck, is mounted on the firehouse wall.

Today the company is proud to own two modern fire trucks, a 2,000 gallon JMC pumper, four air-packs and 1,000 feet of hose.

A rescue buggy is also on the scene for off-road situations such as brush fires, car accidents and rescues of patients injured in the back country.

The greatest need today for the fire company is new membership. There is a job for every volunteer, male or female, young or old, physically capable or not so much. A junior member can begin state training at age 16 and become a full-fledged member at 18.

“Fire is a living thing, and it will do what it wants to do” and so this highly trained chief depends upon his training to stay calm when confronted with the power and speed of fire. The most difficult part of the chief’s job is witnessing loss in a small community of neighbors and friends, loss of property, of homes, and sometimes loss of life.

Chief Donohue hopes that he will always be remembered as a person who cares about his family and his community. No one in this community could argue with that.

Dirty laundry

schism within the hospitality industry has spilled out into the public with the decision by a group of traditional hoteliers to urge Essex County lawmakers to regulate vacation rental units.

At the center of the dispute is the bed tax.

Hotels collect the 3 percent charge from their guests, vacation rental operators do not.

That money, some $2 million annually, gets reinvested back into marketing efforts that promote the countyÕ s tourism assets.

Vacation rental units are furnished houses, flats or condos rented to short-term guests, typically stays for 30 days or fewer.

They’ve grown in popularity this decade, reflecting shifts in the travel landscape.

A conservative estimate puts the number of rooms in Essex County at 1,500, compared to 1,900 traditional units.

Vacationers are traveling in larger groups.

They’re tacking towards customization and tailored travel experiences, while last-minute trips have also been growing in popularity.

The vacation rental biz says they’re simply accommodating these shifting needs and are providing what traditional operaters cannot.

Spending a week in a private townhouse overlooking the Adirondack landscape, they point out, lends itself better to an extended family reunion than renting out a floor of hotel rooms, an experience that doesn’t always provide a unified experience.

Here’s the rub: Under existing state law, units are not taxable as long as no housekeeping, food or other traditional hotel services are provided.

There’s also several weird linen-related statutes, none of which make understanding the issue any easier.

But what’s clear is that the traditional operators find the current legislation unfair and want the county to close the loophole, a measure that appears to be permitted under state law.

They say they’re bankrolling the marketing efforts that are steering visitors into the vacation units.

They say the growth of the vacation rental biz drives up local housing prices because many homeowners have decided that it’s more profitable to rent their residences for a long weekend than it is to house traditional tenants.

And they say that since the bed tax is simply collected by the proprietor, businesses don’t incur a financial burden.

These are all valid points.

But we also agree with the other camp who

argues that traditional hoteliers have dropped the ball on adapting to shifting demand and they are simply giving the public what they want.

Why should they be dinged? Seems like they’re being punished for their success and targeted by jealous competitors.

You could also make the argument that the traditionalists are crying sour grapes because the discussion was not initiated by government officials looking to amend an outdated law, but rather by members of the private sector with skin in the game.

Furthermore, marching into the board of supervisors with a petition seems somewhat reactionary to us and that any policy immediately crafted from public outrage will likely be bad policy.

The rhetoric on both sides has grown heated.

Lawmakers even staged a walkout during a discussion last week.

What was that all about?

Time to cool down.

Our country is built on a sense of egalitarianism and itÕ s in our DNA to automatically recoil against anything that we perceive as unjust or unfair.

And while it’s tempting to demand a quick fix, change in policy should only come after stakeholders arrive at a wide consensus.

Thorough examination is also needed to address the numerous question marks swirling around the issue: Where would the money go? How would a shift in policy be enforced? Should folks who let friends stay at their hunting camps, for instance, be required to collect a fee?

These are all important questions that need time and further study to be hashed out.

This is the approach county officials have taken when Board Chairman Randall Douglas announced the formation of a sub-committee that would bring together citizens representing the full spectrum of viewpoints.

And it is the right one.

Slow and cautious is the way to go, particularly considering surrounding counties will closely be following the discussion and how Essex County chooses to address this issue.

A prolonged mud fight between our elected officials, traditional hoteliers and these new upstarts wouldn’t be beneficial for anyone, but rather an unnecessary airing of dirty laundry.

And that would be bad for business. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board, Dan Alexander, Keith Lobdell and John Gereau

Mill Creek Musings

By Jan Nickerson

S

ome years ago I was asked to sing at the christening of baby girl named Angela. The song was “I Believe in Angels”. It had a sweet message about finding the good in life’s experiences: “I have a dream, a song to sing, to help me cope with anything. If you see the wonder of a fairytale, you can take the future even if you fail.”

us in the past and your contributions are greatly appreciated- Johnsburg Dollars for Scholars could not exist without your help.

Johnsburg Dollars for Scholars

How Many ways to say thank you To the News Enterprise: The generosity of everyone has been overwhelming, making it difficult for me to respond to each of you individually. I want you to know how much I appreciate all that has been done for me since the fire at my home in January. My first thanks go out to the Minerva Fire Department and neighboring departments for their quick response to the fire and dedication to our communities. Then to you who were quickly there with clothing and other donations to help me get started again. I am filled with gratitude for all the organizations, businesses, churches, individuals and my family who have come to my aid during tis difficult time.

Shortly after my fire another home in my town was lost to fire. The community pulled together for us both and hosted an awesome benefit.

Thank you to all who worked to make this happen and to everyone who donated food for the dinner and items for the auction and raffles. A special thank you to the organizers of this event and to all the people who came out for the dinner. I am not using names because so many people helped with the event and I am sure to forget someone, but you all know who you are and I thank you over and over again.

I live in a great community!! Thank you.

Jason Kelly Olmstedville

Fast forward twenty-five years to the day when I became a believer.

Webster describes a “Godsend” as anything unexpected and needed or desired that comes at the opportune moment as if sent by God. I have copper pipes that develop pinhole leaks from time to time and need fixing. One afternoon I discovered that the humidity in the basement was caused by such a leak. I coped by turning off the water. Then I proceeded to call every plumber listed in the phone directory. I got their answering machines. They were all out plumbing.

Finally I called someone a friend had mentioned. He answered immediately from his car phone. He was about a mile away from my home. He came, he saw, and the next day he plumbed.

God didn’t send me an angel. Instead I got a plumber.

Question of the month

What is your favorite room in your home and why?

Mrs. WatsonÕ s Third grade Class Johnsburg Central School Lainey Freeburn, “My playroom is my favorite because all my toys and stuffed animals that I love to play with are in the playroom. Also, my pet ferret lives in the play room. My Xbox and 360 is in there, too. I do most of my reading and playing in there. “ Isabelle Waite, “My favorite room in my house is the living room/ kitchen because that’s where everyone mostly is. Also, a giant TV is there.

The kitchen has an island counter. The color I picked is red with sparkles.

In the spring, at morning, you sometimes see dots on the ceiling with rainbows on them! That is my favorite room in my house and why.”

Scott Patton, “My favorite room is my basement. In my basement on cold nights, I can play with my dog Colt. I can also play army with my friends. I can build a fort. I can help my dad work on the snowmobile.

That’s my favorite room.”

Angelo Galle, “My favorite room in my house is my room because it has a flat screen TV, an Xbox 360, and a bunk bed. It is cozy and it has a draft so my throat does not get dried up and hurt. That’s why my favorite room is my room.”

Sean Bibby, “My favorite room in my house is my garage because I get to work on my snowmobiles. Last night I worked on my snowmobile.

Arctic cats are awesome. Skidoo, Polaris, Hondo and Yamaha are junk.

That is why I like my garage as my favorite room in my house.”

Nathan Lorenson, “My favorite room in my house is my bedroom. I like my bedroom best because it is nice and quiet. I like my bedroom because I can read and write on my desk that I have. I can play my tablet, and my computer, and I can listen to my MP3 player. I also like my bedroom so my three brothers and my sister can’t bug me.”

Helena Batha, “My favorite room in my home is the living room upstairs because I can watch Netflix on the TV. It is close to the kitchen so I can grab a snack. Also, because there is a really comfy chair it’s red. The chair is in the living room. That is my favorite room in my house. What is your room in your home?”

Tanner Baker, “The living room is my room in my home. I love my living room because it is where I go when I alone time sometimes I go down there to play with my dog Buddy.”

Corbin DeGroat, “My favorite room is my downstairs closet, where all

the snowpants and coats go. The downstairs closet is my favorite room because it is cozy. What I like most about the closet is that me and my sister have a club, it is a sisters club. The name of it is ‘I love all sister of God and other.’ That is my favorite room.”

“My favorite room in my house is my basement. I like it because it has my Xbox. I also like it because it has my treadmill. That’s my favorite room in my house.”

Joel Rivera, “My favorite room is my video game room. It’s my favorite room because I play video games in the room. It’s my favorite room because I can have fun in the room. ItÕ s my favorite room because I can watch a video on one of my video games. ItÕ s my favorite room because I can fish on of my video games.”

Tristan Millington, “My favorite room in my house is the living room because I get to play with my toys in the living room. I get to play with my transformers in the living room. I get to watch TV in the living room.”

Mia Connelly, “My favorite room in my house is the sun room. I like the sun room because I enjoy drawing the forest and hills around the house. There is always a stack of paper and pencils on the table in the sun room. The sun room is also the warmest room in the house during April and May. That is why the sun room is my favorite room in the house.”

The Ides of March “Beware the Ides of March.” You’ve no doubt heard or said that phrase, but can you pinpoint its source? I loved the Shakespeare course I took while a student at Stony Brook back in the late ‘50s. The professor, however, was not enamored with me. Most of the classes there took the form of round table discussions and, even though he was a world-renowned expert on the Bard of Avon, we had daily disagreements.

He desperately wanted to fail me, but apparently saw something redeeming in my work and I managed to squeak by with a passby Gordie Little ing grade.

That’s certainly more than you wanted to know about me and Shakespeare. I’ve always enjoyed his work including all 154 sonnets. I had the pleasure and good fortune of attending one of his plays at the American Shakespeare Theater in Stratford, Connecticut back in the day. I was astounded when a 6-foot, 5-inch actor by the name of Fred Gwynne walked onto the stage in costume. That was long before “Car 54, Where Are You?” and the “Munsters.”

You might not be aware that he was a fine vocalist, artist, children’s book author and more, above and beyond his enormous acting skills. Even though he was a fine Munster monster, that image will forever jump into many heads when his name comes up in conversation.

In any case, I conjured up his image on March 15 this year, which you might know was the Ides of March. “Beware the Ides of March” was penned by Shakespeare to be spoken by the soothsayer in “Julius Caesar.”

March 15, on the old Roman calendar, is the date Caesar was assassinated in 44 BC. Calendars were far different in those days and the 15th of the month wasn’t a frightening time at all before Caesar failed to heed the seerÕ s warning. It was close to the beginning of the year and involved celebrations rather than scary predictions. Every month had Ides, but March 15 begat the dark mood after Caesar met the knife. Shakespeare sealed it for us with that now famous line. The Ides only fall on the 15th of March, May, July and October. The ides of all the other months fall on the 13th.

Oh, you never gave it a thought on the 15th? Nothing bad happened at our house on the date except for moaning and groaning about the long, cold winter here in the North Country. We watched and waited for snowbanks to diminish and prayed for a slow, stress-free melt of the thick ice on our beloved Saranac River.

I think there was supposed to be a full moon on the Ides of March back in Roman times. Not this year. It sneaked by us on the 5th of the month. In Caesar’s day, the calendar was based on phases of the moon. That nearby celestial body still holds a strong place in our songs and our conversation.

There was a total solar eclipse March 20 on the equinox and a lunar eclipse will be visible here soon, on April 4.

So, if the temperature outside didn’t rise to 70 for the equinox on March 20 and you had bad luck back on Sunday, March 15, you can blame it on the soothsayer, or Shakespeare or anybody but me. It was the fourth Sunday of Lent and with the grace of God and help from Kaye, I’ve been able to avoid my favorite cookies, cake and doughnuts. Wish me luck and maybe I can hold out till Easter.

By the way, on March 15, 1939, Germany occupied Czechoslovakia. And the Ed Sullivan show was cancelled on that date in 1971. Too bad. It was a “really big show.” I loved the way Sullivan pronounced the word “show.”

You might recall a great band called the Ides of March that formed over 50 years ago in Illinois and is still going strong. A pretty good 2011 movie was also entitled the “Ides of March.”

March Madness? That’s another topic entirely and it was underway the day I wrote this. Sorry. I didn’t have a bracket. I’m still getting ready for baseball season.

NORTH CREEK — BarVino will be showing original watercolors, pastels and oil paintings by Frances Gaffney through Friday, March 27.

These paintings and drawings include representations of the Adirondack landscape overlaid with surrealism. For example, in the painting titled “Expansion - Evolution” a large Chrysanthemum floats high above Blue Mountain Lake.

It expresses the idea that evolution is not linear but more like the opening of a flower, with petals reaching out in many directions at once. To learn more visit her website at francesgaffney.com.

OBITUARIES LANETA B. GALLAGHER LaNeta B. Gallagher, 91 of Ormond Beach, passed away peacefully Sunday, March 1, 2015 at her residence. A native of Indian Lake, NY, Mrs. Gallagher moved to this area 19 years ago from Minerva, NY. Born and raised in the Adirondack mountains of upstate New York, LaNeta graduated from Albany Business College. Always an independent, enterprising and thoughtful individual she lived a full life, emphasizing the family and her community. While raising her family, (a full time job in the Adirondack mountians), she was employed as a legal secretary for attorneys located in nearby North Creek. Later in her life she became the Postmaster in Minerva. Recognizing a need for a new Post Office building in Minerva, she independently built the Post Office on land she owned which is still serving Minerva today. LaNeta was an

avid reader, enjoyed crossword puzzles, as well as collecting stamps and historical plates. LaNeta was an amazing lady with the patience of a Saint, and a wonderful sense of humor. Her heart felt joy came from spending time with her family, especially the Sunday morning crumpets with her boys.

LaNeta was predeceased by her husband, Douglas and her sister, Carol Schee. Survivors include 2 sons, Keith D. Gallagher and Bill Gallagher both of Ormond Beach; 3 grandchildren. Kim Brooks, Laura Gallagher and Kevin Gallagher; and 3 great grandchildren. In lieu of other remembrances the family suggests donations be made to Halifax Health Hospice, 3800 Woodbriar Trail, Port Orange, FL 32129.

mandatory in many European resorts. I’ve often heard the argument that someone, after experiencing an unforeseen accident, may delay calling for help if such fees are charged.

However, if the likelihood of being accessed a substantial rescue fee actually deters them from wandering where they shouldnÕ t go in the first place; especially to a place like the summit of Mt. Marcy on a cold and windy, winter’s day. Hey, it’s worth the consideration!

It has been well established that many outdoor travelers are now willing to take unreasonable chances due to the prevalence of handheld electronic navigation devices and the (expected) availability of instant cellular communications. If they do happen to get lost or hurt, they can now rely on a satellite location beacon device ( SPOT) to show rescuers where to find them. The SPOT device actually charges users a subscription fee, which could be considered a form of insurance.

As long as travelers are seeking adventures, there will be a need for S&R. As the fabled, Saranac Lake Game Protector Dick Emperor once claimed, “A man who claims he’s never been lost, never went too deep into the woods.”I’ve also been told “Any hunter who claims heÕ s never been turned around a few times is either a damn liar, or he spent his days in the rockin’ chair on the front porch at camp. “For many travelers, the concept of undertaking an adventure without a measure of risk is not really an adventure at all.

However, there remains a fine line between risk and responsibility, and it is incumbent upon all travelers to assume a reasonable degree of responsibility regardless of the risk. Again, kudos go out to the many men and women in green who are always ready to get to the scene when they are needed. Not to be overlooked are the service of State Police helicopter pilots whose skill in handling high winds and whiteout conditions atop a mountain summit should never be taken for granted.

Spring will be seasonally delayed

A

lthough the arrival of the spring season has come and gone, it appears the winter season will continue to maintain command over the local landscape, with a deep snowpack in the woods, and chilly temperatures in the air.While I have yet to find any sign of snowfleas in my ski tracks, I did manage to jump a few ducks while skiing along a small mountain stream in recent days.

The snowpack has really held up well so far, and it appears ice will continue to lock out any potential pond anglers for at least another week, or two. So far, there have been no loons in sight, although they’ll likely show up at the Champlain ferry crossings soon.

The annual trout season begins April 1st, in just about a week, and the likelihood of finding fishable, open water is about the same as locating a pack of little green men in a shiny saucer. An old anglers finest advice, “Don’t be wasting your time; there are far better chores that you can avoid by fishing later on when the season finally rolls around.”

However, if you must wet a line, the most likely waters to be productive will be around the inlets an outlets of lakes and ponds, or at the base of waterfalls or rapids, where water temperatures are likely to be warmer than elsewhere.

Watch for birds such as gulls, cormorants, osprey and eagles gathering on shore near the mouth of rivers and streams for evidence of the impending sucker spawn and smelt run. These inlets and outlets often produce some of the fastest action of the early spring, and bird lifer, or otters a sure sign that something is likely stirring underwater.

NYSDEC: New York’s Lost and Found Department

With recent news of yet another winter rescue necessary on the summit of Mount Marcy, it appears the inherent dangers of wandering in a winter wilderness are regularly going unheeded.

The most recent incident began on Saturday, March 21, the day spring was supposed to have sprung across the land. While springlike weather conditions are still a month away in most parts of the Park, the summit of Mt. Marcy and it’s surrounding mountain environs remain solidly encapsulated in artic conditions.

Reportedly, on the day of the most recent rescue, summit conditions included winds ranging between 30 and 40 mph with gusts up to 50 mph, and wind chills down in the range of minus 30 to 40F degrees below.

Such was the case as a team of over two dozen Forest Rangers set

off from the Adirondac Loj on Hart Lake with an assortment of skis, snowshoes, snowmobiles and a State Police helicopter on a search and rescue operation to locate a 39 year old woman, and her two boys, ages 7 and 11. The party was eventually located the following morning on the side of the mountain, below the summit of Marcy. The young boys were immediately airlifted to Adirondack Medical Center in Saranac Lake, and the helicopter promptly returned for the mother who had remained behind in the care of Forest Rangers. Due to the professionalism, and rapid response of both Rangers, and State Police personnel, another potential mountain tragedy was averted. However, the incident reinforces the need for stricter standards for winter mountaineers.

Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact While the costs involved in the rescue effort are of little consideration as compared to the human lives that were saved, the recent him at brookside18@adelphia.net. incident again illustrates the need for increased awareness, training and education for all winter wanderers, especially those traveling in extreme elevations.

Although the availability and reliability of NYSDEC’s Search and Rescue operations is as certain as the sunrise, there has long been a lingering question concerning the costs associated with such operations; especially when they are a direct result of a blatant disregard for the education, experience, equipment and skill necessary to deal with current weather and trail conditions.

There are a number of states and federal lands, where fees are now accessed for S&R. In most places, wilderness or not, if you call 911 and are taken to the hospital in an ambulance; you’ll receive a bill from the ambulance company. So why should hikers and climbers, hunters or anNorth Country anglers are likely to find mid-winter conditions when the Opening Day glers expect anything less than the costs associof trout season, arrives on April 1. It’s likely, the most productive waters will be found at ated with search-and-rescue (SAR) operations the base of large waterfalls, such as Split Rock Falls, Willsboro Falls, The Flume and the cost?
