Sea Dreams By

I sit by the sea And dream
All these dreams Come to me
On waves of Aquamarine And foam
I sit and the sand
Slowly seeps And slips away
From under my feet
e glint of precious stones
Sapphire, Diamond Emerald
Blaze and flash
Before my eyes en vanish
Before my eyes e glimmer is Blindingly beautiful
Making my dreams

PREPARE VEHICLES FOR HARSH WEATHER
Old batteries should be replaced before winter begins. Without a strong, properly functioning battery, engines cannot turn over. Most batteries last between three and five years. However, extreme cold can compromise batteries, especially those that have been around awhile. Batteries are made up of acid and water, and cold temperatures can freeze the water, thereby affecting battery performance. According to AAA’s Automotive Research Center, at 32 F, the average battery loses 35 percent of its strength.
Newer batteries can be protected by starting the vehicle each day to warm up and recharge the battery. Let the car run for at least 10 minutes if you cannot take an extended drive.
WHAT TO KNOW WHEN BUYING FROM A PRIVATE SELLER
Get as much paperwork as possible. Many vehicle owners prioritize recordkeeping, saving maintenance receipts for everything from standard oil changes to more significant repairs. When buying from private sellers, buyers should not hesitate to request a vehicle history report as well as all documentation of maintenance that has been performed on the car since sellers have owned it. Consider it a red flag if sellers do not have any paperwork or refuse to provide it.

RESTORE RUSTY TOOLS
TYPES OF FIREPITS FOR
Many people may be tempted to discard rusty tools that have gone unused and sat in a garage or shed for a significant period of time. But tools encrusted with rust do not need to be relegated to the trash bin, nor do gardeners have to toil for hours scraping and sanding off the rust. There’s a much easier way to restore rusty tools that relies on a common household ingredient: vinegar. Pour vinegar into a deep enough vessel to submerge the metal part of the tool. Soak the tool overnight. The next day, use a scouring pad to rub off the rust. If the tool is too big to fit into a can or bucket, simply wrap it with a vinegarsoaked rag and cover the whole tool with a tightly secured plastic bag. Follow the same procedure the next day. After all the rust is gone, rinse the tool in cool water and dry thoroughly. Then return it to regular usage.
MASONRY & BASEMENT
Wood firepit: As their name suggests, wood firepits burn wood, which may appeal to homeowners who already have wood-burning fireplaces inside their homes. Because they don’t require homeowners to tap into gas lines, wood firepits are generally easy to set up and install, and many homeowners prefer the aesthetic appeal of crackling wood and flames

ACCLIMATING TO A NEW NEIGHBORHOOD
Scout out the neighborhood
Use mobile phone apps to see where the locals tend to congregate and plan trips to these restaurants and other shops. Over time, you probably will start to see some familiar faces. Drive around town and get a feel for side streets instead of the main thoroughfares. It’s often off the beaten path where you happen upon the greatest finds.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF HONEY
Soothes sore throat: Taking a tablespoon of honey to relieve itchy, dry throats and coughs can be effective. In a study published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, it was determined that honey could be just as effective at stemming cough as the popular medicine dextromethorphan.

MOMENTS IN TIME
The History Channel
* On Sept. 28, 1941, the Boston Red Sox’s Ted Williams plays a double-header against the Philadelphia Athletics and gets six hits in eight trips to the plate, boosting his batting average to .406.
* On Sept. 30, 1962, in Oxford, Mississippi, James Meredith, an African American, is escorted onto the University of Mississippi campus by U.S. Marshals, setting off a riot that left two men dead. The racial violence was quelled by more than 3,000 federal soldiers.
* On Oct. 1, 1993, Polly Klaas is abducted at knifepoint and then murdered by an intruder in Petaluma, California. Her father, Marc Klaas, later lobbied to bring about California’s “three strikes” law, which gave life terms to criminals with three felony convictions, even though those committing less serious crimes also could face life in prison.
The Erie Canal Celebrates its Bicentennial Anniversary!
BY SOPHIA KOVATCH
As the Erie Canal reaches its 200th year, celebrationsare taking place across New York in honor of this civil engineering marvel. e 338mile canal connects the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes, and its completion in 1825 dug the way for the growth of commerce, social movements, and westward expansion. ough the Erie Canal has evolved from a major commercial route to a recreational region, it still shapes the character of Western New York.
e bicentennial celebration kicked off in earnest this week as a replica of the Seneca Chief departed from Buffalo Maritime Center, retracing Governor DeWitt Clinton’s journey from Buffalo to New York City to celebrate the openingoftheErieCanal.Visitorscantourthe SenecaChief in Brockport on September 26, Rochester on September 27th, Pittsford and Fairport September 28-29th, Newark September 30th, Lyons, October 1st, Clyde October 2nd, Baldwinsville October 3rd, Syracuse October 4-5th, and canal towns east as the vessel makes its many stops across the state.
Even if you miss the Seneca Chief, it’s still worth spending some time by the canal. anks to Congress’s establishment of the Erie Canal National Heritage Corridor in 2000, canal waterways and towpaths are now dedicated to recreation, and visitors can sail or paddle on the canal itself, walk or bike the Canalway Trail, or visit one of the many canalside parks. e Canalway Trail is open year-round, but the water access season ends November 3.
Erie Canal commemorations can be found as far as Batavia, which has a surprising history as it relates to the canal. According to Ryan Duffy, Executive Director of the Holland Land Office Museum, one proposed route for the canal would have sent it through what is now Genesee County. e southern path was mapped by Joseph Ellicott of the Holland Land Company in Batavia, who saw the economic potential of a statewide water route for his company and the region as a whole.
e southern canal route was passed over because it posed too many engineering challenges, according to Patrick McGreevy’s book Stairway to Empire: Lockport, e Erie Canal, and e Shaping of America. Still, Ellicott remained a staunch supporter of the Erie Canal and served as one of its commissioners when construction began in 1817. e Holland Land Office Museum hosts an exhibit titled e Holland Land Company & the Erie Canal through December, where visitors learn more about Ellicott’s influence on the canal.
A er 200 years of continuous operation, the Erie Canal is still a wonder. It’s one of the longest canals in the world and New York residents and visitors take to its waters and marvel at the historic locks and li bridges each year. e bicentennial celebrations give Western New York residents a great reason to look a little closer at the canal that has

SENIOR NEWS LINE
By Matilda Charles
Seniors and Socila Media
The list of scams against seniors keeps getting longer and longer. Just when we have a handle on the various types of fraud, here come new ones. But there’s one area where we do have some control: social media.
One place I’ve always been concerned about (and therefore have never joined) is the small neighborhood social media chat groups. So much gets talked about, and people generally feel safe because, after all, they’re chatting with their neighbors. But you never really know who’s watching online. And you never really know what small piece of information could be the one that puts you at risk -especially if a thief has been following the group and assembling your innocent chat as clues.
Beware what you say online. If you announce on social media that you’re about to take a vacation, that’s a clue to a thief that your house will be empty at a certain time. Or if you announce online that you’ll be joining an art class every Tuesday morning, or if you post your unlisted phone number in reply to someone’s question, etc.
Another place that’s jam-packed with information is newspaper funeral notices that are posted on social media. The “survived by” information is gold for thieves. With those names, plus the date and time of the funeral, thieves know when a house is likely to be empty.
Friend requests are another source of concern with social media. Beware, and be selective. Be certain you know who you’re letting in. Never click a link in social media, or anywhere else. Just don’t. You don’t really know where it goes.
Before you take your first step into social media, be certain you know how it works. Get good advice on how to fix your privacy settings so you’re not as vulnerable.

Upcycling: Transforming the ‘Old’ into a Better ‘New’
Turn old or discarded furniture, cabinets and doors into fresh new creations through “upcycling” -- high-end “recycling” that reduces trash at landfills by refurbishing or repurposing existing pieces, often enhancing the value.
Family furniture: Save chairs, tables, and other furniture passed down through the generations by doing repairs, if needed, and staining/painting to suit your current decor.
BAD GUYS
true. Far from being simply the stuff of folklore and folk tales, Appleseed (real name: John Chapman) was an American nurseryman who introduced apple trees to the Midwest, including Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. He was also a conservationist and missionary during the earliest days of the United States.

Poem of the Week
Thank you, Mr. Adam’s, for brightening my day. My week had progressed quite badly, then your poem “gave someone that special lift.” Kudos for your heart lifting poem.
ank You!
On August 4th I tripped over some uneven pavement during my walk and took a nasty fall. A wonderful woman named Lisa stopped and drove me home .I believe I would not have been able to have walked home. I just wanted to express my gratitude. Come to find out that I had a broken wrist. Several people also stopped. So thankful that I live in a village where people truly care about one another.
Whiskey7 Warplane
A big thank you to the Geneseo Walmart, and the artist, Kelly Sheridan, for the gorgeous mural of the Whiskey7 warplane that adorns the entryway to the store...always a beautiful site to see in the air, too!
Recently I was at a meeting when the subject of ambulances came up. Someone said the ambulance is coming back to our area again. Some were not happy to hear that because of the money charged to take someone to the hospital. Someone said it cost him $250 per trip. Another said it cost him $350 per trip. Another said it cost him $500 per trip. It’s unbelievable the prices the ambulance company charges people. The sad part of all this is that they charge people money regardless of whether they can pay or not. They do not give a person a break in what they charge. No matter how poor you are, they don’t care. www.featuredmedia.com

Right in the middle of the Village
It’s honestly embarrassing how one local business can bring down the entire look of our village. The amount of junk piling up outside is completely unacceptable—right in the middle of town for everyone to see. This isn’t just an eyesore; it shows a lack of respect for the community and the people who live here. We all work hard to take pride in our homes and neighborhood—why should one business be allowed to drag the whole place down? Something needs to be done. This is not the image we want to project. It is turning into a visible junkyard, and they keep adding more. Boats, sheds, RVs, vehicles, etc.

Why your dog’s leash ma ers
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Your recent column about the dog being allowed to walk onto a neighbor’s lawn to pee and poop had me wondering. Why was this dog not on a leash in the first place? Too often, I see people in my neighborhood who allow their dogs to run loose in the front yard, with no apparent barrier to them running into traffic. Too often, I see poor leash discipline, with dogs pulling far away from owners on a retractable leash -- too far for them to reel the dog back if they bound into an intersection. Can you at least tell people how to walk their dogs properly? -Gary in Atlanta, Georgia
DEAR GARY: Those are great observations. It’s not unusual to see owners who let their dogs pull ahead or wander onto lawns and into shrubbery. My guess is that most feel their pets deserve a little freedom.
But dogs need structure and routine. Halfway leash discipline creates a half-obedient dog. When you and your dog are walking, you are walking. Not playing, not exploring.
I’m all for allowing dogs to run and explore -- but the time and place are important. Running free at a dog park or in a well-fenced yard is OK. Zig-zagging all over the sidewalk and into the street ... not so much.
And as you pointed out, poor leash discipline is a huge safety issue. Owners must be able to control their dog. A sturdy, fixed leash is recommended for walking dogs of all sizes. A retractable leash is helpful at parks where dogs must be leashed but have space to safely explore. But I don’t recommend them for walking or training purposes.

By Keith Roach, M.D.
DEAR DR. ROACH: The females in my family on my mother’s side seem to develop dementia/Alzheimer’s on a fairly regular basis. It seems to become noticeable once the women are in their mid-70s or so. We girls are concerned as we head toward our elderly years and wondered which sort of diet or supplemental changes we should look into? There seems to be so many articles and opinions that it’s hard to know where to start.
On the positive side, our father’s side of the family seems healthy and robust well into their 80s and 90s. Our extended family has females ranging from their mid-30s to 71 years of age. Are we being overly concerned? Could this be a genetic thing? Any suggestions would be helpful in calming some real fears that we have. -- E.J.
ANSWER: I don’t think supplements are going to be the answer for dementia. I haven’t seen any good data to support any of the supplements I see that are touted to prevent, slow, treat or cure dementia.
I do think that diet may help slow dementia, and one of the best diets according to the studies that have been done so far remains a Mediterranean-style diet. This includes plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts and legumes, fish (especially fatty fish), limited amounts of red meat, and minimally processed foods. Alcohol is increasingly likely to be problematic, and I recommend against more than occasional alcohol use for people who want to minimize their risk of dementia.
Regular moderate exercise has a pretty clear protective effect. Although cognitive exercises like games and puzzles help improve memory short-term, it’s not clear that they are preventing or delaying the onset of dementia.
Advanced imaging, such as PET scans, are beginning to show the ability to diagnose Alzheimer’s dementia in people with early symptoms. Early treatment to attack amyloids in the brain with lecanemab or donanemab slows the progression of dementia by approximately 25% to 30%.
DEAR DR. ROACH: I cared for my ailing mother, and even though I tried to minimize my stress, I gained a lot of weight and still have my “cortisol belly.” I need to get healthy! -- D.H.
ANSWER: Taking care of a family member is always stressful. Taking care of yourself as well is hard, and most of us aren’t able to eat, sleep, exercise, and take good care of ourselves as well as we should during a period of time when we are taking care of others. Most of us have other demands, including family and work.
Although I often see the term “cortisol belly,” it isn’t the slightly elevated level of stress hormones that causes the abdominal weight gain. (People who have Cushing’s syndrome develop a particular type of abdominal weight gain as a result of dramatically elevated cortisol levels, as a result of a tumor, or by taking high doses of steroids.) In your case, it’s more likely that the result of not having healthy behaviors lead to your weight gain.
Losing abdominal weight is achieved through the same ways you would lose weight anywhere. I won’t ever say it’s easy, but a combination of a healthy diet and regular exercise is going to improve your health, whether you lose a pound or not. I don’t recommend medication treatment to lose weight unless a person is very overweight (“morbidly obese” is the precise medical term) or has medical complications related to their weight.
Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved
Do you have HEEL pain or ARCH pain?
HEEL SPUR SYNDROME/PLANTAR FASCIITIS
is a common problem among people who are active. It starts as a dull intermittent pain in the heel and progresses to a sharp persistent pain. Classically, it is worse in the morning with the first few steps, after sitting, after standing or after walking.
• Plantar fasciitis often begins with irritation and tearing of the fibrous band of tissue on the bottom of the foot, which may eventually result in the formation of a heel spur.
• Contributing factors: Flat pronated feet, high arched feet, poor shoe support, increased age, sudden weight increase, increased activity level, family tendency.
• 95% of our patients’ symptoms are resolved with conservative treatment, avoiding surgical intervention.
• We also offer surgical procedures with the best post op success rates using Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy techniques (minimal incisions and scarring; often back in a shoe in 1 week).

Do not leave a job only to find the next career has few, if any, openings. Job growth projections are available through resources like the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Autumn burned brightly, a running flame through the mountains, a torch flung to the trees.
~Faith Baldwin, American Family
LookingFor Something Specific?
Around and around the house the leaves fall thick—but never fast, for they come circling down with a dead lightness that is sombre and slow. Let the gardener sweep and sweep the turf as he will, and press the leaves into full barrows, and wheel them off, still they lie ankle-deep.
~Charles Dickens, Bleak House
