Homeowners looking to add more space to their homes do not necessarily need to make major renovations. They simply have to see the possibilities in outdoor living spaces.

Outdoor living spaces are coveted niches in a home. The American Home Furnishings Alliance says more than 70 percent of American households have outdoor living spaces, and nearly 70 percent of people use these spaces at least once per week in-season. Furthermore, homeowners are increasingly interested in enhancing these spaces to make them more usable and comfortable.

A recent survey from the online home design and remodeling resource Houzz found that more than 4,500 users were planning a landscape update. In addi-

tion, 56 percent of homeowners surveyed were making updates to improve their yards for entertaining.

While the creation of outdoor living spaces can cost thousands of dollars depending on the renovation, homeowners have more budgetfriendly options at their disposal as well. Outdoor living spaces are booming and highly achievable, and many such spaces need not be expensive or take up a lot of room. The following are some ways to create inviting spaces no matter how much square-footage is present: Revamp a Garage or Shed Rather than allowing a storage area to be a catch-all for items time forgot, clean out the space and put it to better use. For instance, children may appreciate their own clubhouse away from the main living area. These spaces also can be handy bonus rooms for when Mother Nature doesn’t cooperate and backyard guests need to seek shelter. Wall art, curtains, a pendant light, and some comfortable outdoorcompatible furniture can quickly transform a space.

Create a Relaxing Nook Take a ledge, overhang, small terrace, or porch off the house and turn it into a relaxing area for reading a book or sipping a beverage. Use a few outdoor pillows, pull up a small folding table, and dress the area with hanging lights and potted plants for a quiet retreat.

Add Privacy to a Porch If privacy is the goal, install curtain rods and hang lightweight mesh or another translucent material that obscures neighbors’ views without blocking out natural light. Decorative privacy screens and lattice are also options that can provide privacy while keeping the space appealing to the eye. Invest in outdoor sofas and chaises to create an outdoor living room right on the porch. If the budget allows, consider closing in the porch as a true three-season room so it can be used throughout fall, spring, and summer.

Backyard barbecues are synonymous with warm weather.

And why wouldn’t they be?

Grilling over an open flame when the weather is warm embodies the relaxing spirit of spring and summer, prompting many people to leave their oven ranges behind in favor of charcoal and gas grills.

As relaxing as backyard barbecues can be, they can quickly take a turn for the worse if cooks don’t emphasize safety when grilling. According to the National Fire Protection Association, an average of 9,600 home fires are started by grills each year. In fact, the Consumer Product Safety Commission notes that, between 2012 and 2016, an average of 16,600 patients went to the emergency room each year because of injuries involving grills.

Such statistics only highlight the need to balance the fun of grilling with safety when hosting a backyard barbecue or cooking for the family. The following are some steps people can take to ensure their backyard barbecues are safe: · Recognize that gas grills pose a t h r e a t a s w e l l . It’s easy to assume gas grills don’t pose as great a threat as charcoal grills, which produce soaring flames once the charcoal is lit. But the NFPA notes that gas grills are involved in 7,900 home fires per year. No grill is completely safe, and cooks must emphasize safety whether they’re using gas grills, charcoal grills, or smokers. · Only use grills outdoors.

Grills should never be used indoors. Even if rain unexpectedly arrives during a backyard barbecue, keep the grill outside.

If unexpected rain is accompanied by lightning and thunder, extinguish the fire in the grill and go indoors. · Place the grill in a safe loca tion. Grills should be placed well away from the home. Avoid locating grills near deck railings or beneath eaves and overhanging branches. Cut overgrown branches before lighting a grill fire if they are in close proximity to the grill. · K e e p y o u r g r i l l c l e a n . The buildup of grease and fat, both on the grill grate and in trays below the grill, increases the risk of fire. Clean the grill routinely. · Properly light the grill. Lighting gas and charcoal grills requires caution. Before lighting a gas grill, make sure the lid is open. If you must use starter fluid to light a charcoal grill, the NFPA advises using only charcoal starter fluid. Never add any fluids to the fire after it has been lit. · Do not leave a grill unattend ed. Cooks should never leave a lit grill unattended. If you must leave the grill, only do so if another adult can stand in your stead. Lit grills pose a threat to children and pets, and unattended grills can be blown over by gusts of wind or tipped by wild animals, such as squirrels.

Standing by a lit grill at all times can protect against such accidents and injuries.

Perfect Your Deck!

Custom-built decks can expand usable outdoor entertaining spaces. Decks can surround pools and create outdoor patio areas that make it easy to establish multitiered living spaces, improving the functionality of outdoor areas.

Certain deck trends have emerged as industry experts’ top picks for the upcoming remodeling and renovation season. For those thinking of revamping an existing deck or building an entirely new one, these trends are on point.

Established perimeters: While “picture framing” is not a new trend, it has taken greater hold in recent years. The term

refers to aesthetically appealing designs that conceal the ends of deck boards for a clean finish.

Some designs feature contrasting material colors on the ends for even more impact. This helps create refined perimeters for a polished look.

Rooftop decking: Urban areas also can benefit from decking to create usable outdoor spaces.

In fact, many new condominium and townhouse communities are incorporating rooftop decks into their designs, particularly in communities with water views or other impressive vistas. HGTV experts suggest that rooftop decks should feature light-colored materials and fixtures to help keep the area cool, as it will likely be exposed to direct sunlight.

Distressed hardwood: Builder and Developer, a management resource for professional

homebuilders, says that the trend for using distressed hardwoods at home has migrated outside. Some decking manufacturers have recently introduced low-maintenance composite deck boards that mimic the look and feel of distressed, rustic hardwood flooring. This weathered appearance gives the look of age without the upkeep of real aged wood.

W o o d e n w a l k w a y s : W hen people think of decking, they probably envision a more traditional space that is up off the ground and features a patio table or outdoor furniture. But decking also can consist of wooden walkways or a low-laying patio to accentuate the yard.

Mixed materials: Homeowners may be inspired by commercial

eateries and urban markets in their exterior design choices.

Decks featuring composite materials and aluminum railings blend sophistication, urban appeal, and comfort.

Personal touches: Homeowners can customize their decks with personal touches. It’s not unheard of to wrap columns in stone or glass tiles for more impact. And the vast array of

decking colors now available enables fun interpretations for outdoor areas.

Fire pit conversation area: Many decks can incorporate water or fire elements for visual appeal. Gas-fueled fire elements can expand the functionality of decks beyond the warm seasons or make enjoying them practical on nights when the temperature plummets.

Experimenting With Growing Food Indoors lot to meals.

The convenience and flavor of freshly grown edibles propels many home gardeners to grow produce and herb gardens in their yards. Those short on outdoor space may be happy to learn that many edibles grow equally as well indoors as outdoors.

Many people maintain comfortable temperatures between 70 and 75 F in their homes all year long, which can be the ideal condition for growing an array of edibles, no matter the season. For those with homes that receive ample sunlight (or if homeowners are willing to supplement with artificial light), growing conditions can be even stronger. An indoor garden can comprise as much space as a homeowner is willing to devote. Shelving can maximize vertical areas and enable gardeners to include even more

The Art Of Buying Art Furnishing a home with art can be intimidating, especially for people doing so for the first time. But a few tricks of the trade can help individuals turn the interiors of their homes into spaces that reflect who they are. · Embrace your personal taste. Don’t hesitate to decorate your walls with art you like.

When buying furniture for a home, it can make sense to follow certain rules. For example, parents of young children might want to purchase dark-colored furnishings that can hide stains. But individuals can have more freedom when it comes to making decisions about art. Art reflects the person who made it, but it also reflects the person who buys it, so buyers should embrace their personal taste when furnishing their homes with art. · Shop around. Thanks to the internet, billions of pieces of art, from tapestries to photographs to paintings, are at your fingertips. Comparison shopping can be fun and help novices discover their personal tastes.

Designing a home’s interior can be fun.

Whether furnishing a first apartment or a newly purchased family home, many people feel that the art they put on the walls of their homes is an expression of their individuality and that a home isn’t truly a home until its interior reflects the personalities of it residents.

with loose, well-draining soil, you can cultivate carrots indoors. Carrots prefer cooler spots for sweet yields. Plus, carrot greens can make for attractive indoor decorations.

M i c r o g r e e n s : Swiss chard, basil, dill, kale, and other greens can provide nutrient-dense additions to any meal. These plants do not require a lot of depth to a container and can thrive on a sunny windowsill in a room that’s between 60 and 70 F. Scallions: These plants of the onion family add flavor to many recipes. When scallions are grown at home, gardeners can snip off the greens as needed. Choose deep pots so the scallions can establish strong root systems.

Turnips: Large, deep pots are needed to grow turnips, says Loyal Gardener. You can grow them from seeds and be harvesting turnips in about two months.

Shoppers may also want to check out local art galleries, museum shops, and antiques shops. Attending local art and craft shows is another great way to scout for home décor items, as customers can chat with the artists and learn about the techniques and inspiration behind the art they purchase. They will also have the satisfaction of knowing that their art purchase is supporting a local artist.

Shoppers may also support local artists on internet sites like Etsy by using the location filter and selecting their state. · Seek inspiration. If you’re unfamiliar with art, don’t hesitate to seek inspiration. Art is everywhere, from the hotels you stay in while traveling to the billboards you pass while driving to work to the local art museum near your home. If you’re uncertain of what you like, make a concerted effort to recognize the art you see but may not

stop to notice each day. As you expose yourself to more and more art, you will gain a greater knowledge of what you like and dislike. Use that knowledge to inform your decisions when buying art for your home. · Switch things up. Your entire home does not need to follow a theme. If your taste in art is eclectic, embrace that and have different rooms throughout your home reflect your different tastes. This can give each room its own unique feel and make for a colorful home.

Keep these tips in mind when cultivating indoor edible gardens: Tomatoes: Tomatoes should be reserved for the sunniest spot in a home or one where additional UV light can be used.

Pet-Safe Summer Entertaining

Ensuring the Safety of Furry Party Guests When the season for outdoor entertaining arrives, time spent in the yard entertaining friends and family tends to increase. Barbecuing lends itself well to informal warmweather gatherings.

While spending time outside, many pet owners like to have their furry companions nearby so they can enjoy the fresh air and fun as well. However, allowing pets to be outdoors when grilling or entertaining friends requires some forethought to ensure pets stay safe.

the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention (APOP) warns pet owners against feeding their dogs or cats chicken on the bone due to the risk of the bone splintering and causing intestinal obstruction. Even large bones can splinter. Owners who want to offer bones to their dogs should consult with a vet about which types of bones are safe or look for a manufactured bone from the pet store.

Middletown Teams Wrap Up 2019 Season

by Eric Pyles

That’s a wrap. The Spring sports season at Middletown Area High School is officially in the books for the 2019 season. The baseball team’s postseason push came up short with losses to Bishop McDevitt and Central Dauphin East while the track and field team sent a small squad to Shippensburg University for the District 3 Championship Meet.

Joci Koser fronted the Blue Raider contingent in Shippensburg, competing in three solo events plus the 400m relay. Koser’s work in the 400m relay was short lived as the team of Koser, Hayli Akakpo-Marin, Hailey Herneisey and Lani Moore never got out of the starting blocks thanks to a false start.

The rest of Koser’s weekend was busy, starting with 100m and 200m preliminaries on Friday May 17th. Her first race was in heat one of the 100m where she finished fourth with a time of 13.55, good enough for an automatic bid into the semifinals. Once there she posted a 13.31 to finish fourth in her heat. Tulpehocken’s Ava Ahner also posted a 13.31 in the other semifinal heat but Koser was awarded the finals slot once the two runner’s times were taken out to a thousandth of a second. Koser’s 13.301 just barely nipped Ahner’s 13.306. Koser had to wait until Saturday the 18th to run the 100m final where she finished seventh with a time of 13.24.

She ended up running the same gauntlet in the 200m starting with heat three of the preliminary round on Friday. Her 27.35 was the second quickest time in her heat, easily moving the senior into the semifinals. No tiebreaker was needed this time as Koser clocked a 27.73 to

finish third in her heat, picking up an automatic final’s entry in the process. Once again, the wait until Saturday did Koser no favors as she finished eighth with a time of 28.04.

Koser’s other solo event was the 300H where she finished ninth with a time of 50.42.

Akakpo-Martin joined Koser in both the 100m and 200m competitions but saw her weekend end in the semifinals for both events. AkakpoMartin moved out the 100m prelims by finishing fifth in heat two with a time of 13.66. She posted a nearly identical time of 13.61 in the semifinals but it was not enough to make the final cut.

Her path in the 200m followed a similar arc starting with a fourthplace finish in the second of three preliminary heats. Her 28.40 was good enough for an automatic spot in the semifinals where her time of 27.98 put her seventh and outside of the final eight runners.

Ayanna Reeves was the final Lady Raider to compete in Shippensburg, tossing her hat into the 2A discus field. Reeves fell five inches short of a top three finish, settling for fourth with a toss of 101-0.

Jose Lopez and Chris Joseph were the lone members of the boy’s team to make the trek to Shippensburg.

Joseph’s time of 16.43 in the 110 hurdles was good enough for sixth in his preliminary heat but left him 0.22 seconds short of the semifinals.

Lopez came into the 3A 100m as the 14th seed and while he was unable to match his seeded time, the 11.36 he posted in the preliminary round was good enough to earn him one of the 16 semifinal spots. His season came to a close in the semifinals

where he finished eighth in his heat with a time of 11.49.

BASEBALL The baseball team opened their final week push on May 14th with a heartbreaking 6-5 loss to Bishop McDevitt. The Crusaders used a two run, top of the seventh, rally to flip the game back in their favor but Middletown was unable to answer.

As the game got underway it appeared as if McDevitt would walk away with an easy victory after scoring in the first three innings and pushing out to a 4-0 lead. Middletown began their climb back into the game with a single run in the bottom of the fifth inning. Cam Peters picked up his lone hit of the game, singling to center which allowed Mike Tuffy to score for a 4-1 game.

The Blue Raiders made their move one inning later with help from Bishop McDevitt. Middletown was able to load the bases with Tim Wagner and Jaxson Senior walks followed by a Collin Heffner single. After picking up the first out of the frame the Crusaders helped Middletown’s rally by committing back-to-back-to-back errors. Scott Ash was the beneficiary of the first, picking up two RBIs on the play and cutting the deficit to 4-3.

McDevitt continued their assisting efforts by committing two errors in succession that allowed another two Middletown runs to cross, putting the Blue Raiders in front 5-4.

Bishop McDevitt made up for those errors with a quick two run burst in the top of the seventh that Middletown was unable to answer, sealing the 6-5 Crusader win.

Ash got the start for Middletown and covered five and two-third innings but ended up with a

no-decision after the failed comeback bid. Brady Keyser ended up taking the loss despite being in the books for just one-third of an inning. He finished up the sixth after taking over for Ash and started the seventh but relinquished the mound to Mike Tuffy after surrendering the final two McDevitt runs.

Tuffy finished the top half of the seventh with three quick outs.

The Blue Raiders took the field one final time on the 15th, finally playing what had been scheduled as the season opener back on March 23rd. The result was a 4-1 loss to Central Dauphin East that left the Blue Raiders with a 10-10 record on the season.

Garrett Miller suffered the loss after covering the first four and one third innings. Tuffy finished the final two and two-third innings and added one strikeout to Miller’s two. Miller’s pitching line included four walks and all four Panther runs with three falling on the earned side of the ledger.

Ash and Peters accounted for Middletown’s three hits with Ash picking up two singles to Peters’ one but it was Wagner that picked up the team’s lone RBI. That run came in the bottom of the first via a bases loaded walk and gave the Blue Raiders a 1-0 lead.

Avery Williams got the one run rally started by reaching base on a Panther error. Miller followed with a walk before CD East picked up the inning’s second out. Justin Yohn loaded the bases with a five pitch walk while Wagner coaxed the final free pass from Rafael Gonzalez to push Williams across for the 1-0 lead. The Panthers tied the game in the second before tacking on insurance runs in the fourth and fifth innings on their way to the 4-1 win.

Garden Club Honored At Convention Nine members of the Town and Country Garden Club of Lancaster attended the 89th annual Garden Club Federation of Pennsylvania’s state convention in Altoona.

Tree Carving Begins In Harrisburg Along Harrisburg’s riverfront, a chainsaw carver has begun turning a dying tree into a work of art. Harrisburg native Jeffrey Tinsman is the driving force behind the local beautification project.

York county-based artist Brad Heilman began carving the tree, located in Riverfront Park along North Front Street between Walnut and Locust streets, on May 15. The finished product will depict some of the many fish which are native to the Susquehanna River.

The goal is to have the project completed in time for the annual Artsfest of Greater Harrisburg, the weekend of May 25 to 27.

Tinsman and Heilman have worked together before, turning a dying tree into a Susquehannock Native American-style carving next to the Walnut Street Bridge 10 years ago.

With approval from Harrisburg Mayor Eric Papenfuse, another carving is planned later this summer on City Island. That project calls for a 40-foot bat, a 20-foot glove and a 15-foot baseball to be

collectively carved from a tree next to the stadium for the Harrisburg Senators.

All money raised from sponsors and donations will be used to support the Susquehanna River School, a floating educational classroom where students learn about the history, natural wonders, and ecosystem of the Susquehanna River.

Chatter Hi, everyone! Happy Memorial Day! Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service and, from the bottom of my heart, I appreciate and respect all the late military members for what they have done for our great country. But I also would like to honor the military personnel who are still alive today, veterans and active duty, for their selflessness. God bless you for keeping me and the ones I love safe and able to live in the greatest place in the world!

Day of Kindness Celebrate Kindness on 1-4-3 Day Thursday, May 23, is the 143rd day of the year, and we are proud to take the day to celebrate kindness across the commonwealth.

On May 23, Pennsylvania will celebrate the first-ever 1-4-3 Day in the commonwealth with a call to all residents to show kindness in honor of Fred Rogers.

Through his celebrated children’s program, “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood,” Fred Rogers inspired generations of viewers to embrace kindness.

1-4-3 was a shorthand he used regularly to say “I love you,” based on the number of letters in each word.

We are asking you, as our partners, to help us promote 1-4-3 Day in your neighborhood!

Join the Movement!

Post your own kind act - or someone else’s - on Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram using #143DayinPA. (Pennsylvania Department of Community & Economic Development, www.dced.pa.gov)

An artistic tree carving project is underway in Riverfront Park in Harrisburg.

Tip of the Week Cut a grapefruit in half and dip it in coarse sea salt for a great sink and tub cleaner! With the help of the citric acid from the grapefruit and the scrubbing action of the salt, you can kill stains in your sinks, tubs, and showers instantly! And it is all natural!

Fact of the Week A portion of Tennessee was originally known as Franklin, West Virginia was nearly named Kanawha, and a section of Utah almost became part of the state of Deseret.

Joke of the Week Paddy was in New York. He was patiently waiting and watching the traffic cop at a busy street crossing. The cop stopped the flow of traffic and shouted, “OK, pedestrians.” Then he’d allow the traffic to pass.

He’d done this several times, and Paddy still stood on the sidewalk.

After the cop had shouted, “Pedestrians!” for the 10th time, Random Thought I’m always slightly terrified Paddy went over to him and said, when I exit out of Word and it “Is it not about time ye let the asks me if I want to save any Catholics cross?” changes to my 10-page research Thank You paper that I swear I did not make Thanks to my buddy Francis any changes to.

Kasper of Middletown for the joke! That one cracks me up!

Recipe of the Week Berry Easy Dessert Food for Thought Ingredients: Plenty of people miss their 1 can crushed pineapple share of happiness, not because 1 can mixed berry pie filling they never found it, but because 1 stick butter, melted they didn’t stop to enjoy it.

Hope Springs Farm Adds Horticulture Therapy

Maytown Gears Up For Memorial Day

Hope Springs Farm has added a new program to its daily offerings for adults with disabilities. The new program is called Horticulture Therapy for Populations With Developmental Disabilities. Nora Palmer from Delaware Valley University leads the program.

Horticulture is the art or practice of garden cultivation and management. Hope Springs Farm’s new horticulture therapy program is intended to foster a connection between the efforts of the farm’s daily participants, called “growers,” and the results of growing something. The goal is for growers to feel a sense of accomplishment and pride when they grow/create something they can share with their family and friends.

Horticulture therapy is designed to help growers in a variety of ways.

These include a physical aspect, such as improving fine and gross motor functions; cognitive goals, including improving speech, increasing the ability to retain information, and increasing knowledge of basic reading, writing, and arithmetic; and social and emotional goals, such as raising self-esteem

American Legion Auxiliary Unit 809 of Maytown will hold its 57th annual Antique, Art, Craft, and Collectible Show on Memorial Day, Monday, May 27, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will take place in the Maytown Square and on East High Street, preceding the annual Maytown Memorial Day Parade at 4 p.m.

Organizer and Auxiliary member Sara Gutshall explained that the antique show was established by the late Marilyn Fink, former Auxiliary president, in 1959. In its early years, the event had approximately a dozen vendors.

Gutshall said the show continued growing through the years and now includes 50 or more vendors who travel from around Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland to take part in the event.

Items for sale will include handmade soap, candles, bird feeders, yarn, lawn art, oils, teas, spices, books, jewelry, glass, pottery, outdoor furniture, bamboo plants, crystals and gemstones, antiques, and more. Broommaking and blacksmithing demonstrations will also take place.

Traditional fair food will be available to purchase, including sausage sandwiches, funnel cakes, fried sandwich cookies, fried rice and noodles, smoothies, ice cream, and more.

Gutshall emphasized that the event is a fundraiser to support veterans - something near and dear to her own heart as she had three brothers and numerous uncles and nephews who served in the military. “I can’t give up on our veterans,” remarked Gutshall.

“And I’m dedicated to Maytown because I was born here.”

The Auxiliary - which Gutshall noted is 65 members strong supports veterans at the Lebanon, Coatesville, and Southeastern VA hospitals in various capacities, including sending monetary donations, clothing, and other supplies as needed.

In the winter, activities will include natural texture stones, winter tree art, natural math, winter walks, and sowing seeds.

Prior to the start of the parade, ceremonies will be held at each of the cemeteries in Maytown. Beginning at 3 p.m., members of the local Girl Scouts and any other school-age children who would like to participate will decorate the graves of

veterans buried in the cemetery at Maytown Reformed United Church of Christ, 11 E. Elizabeth St. The Bainbridge Band will perform selections in honor of all veterans. Afterward, the assembly will move to the cemetery at St. John’s Lutheran Church, 11 N. Queen. St., for a similar observance.

The American Legion Post 809 annually sponsors a Memorial Day Service of Remembrance immediately following the conclusion of the parade in the Maytown Square. Donegal High School teacher Justin Neideigh, who coordinates Veterans Day programs at the school, will be the main speaker. The program will also include musical selections by the Bainbridge Band and the Donegal Intermediate School chorus and a bagpipes selection

by Michael Luckenbill.

All members of the community are invited to participate in aspects of the Maytown Memorial Day observance. Post and Auxiliary members encourage area residents to fly the American flag for Memorial Day weekend.
