LOCAL NEWS Salvation Army thrift store moves to Meadowbrook

By Jeff Say

Culpeper Times Staff Writer The Culpeper Salvation Army will now have more money to do more good.

The Salvation Army moved its thrift store location to 501 Meadowbrook Shopping Center in an effort to free up money for other programs.

The nonprofit saved approximately $4,000 by downsizing to the 3,000 square foot storefront that used to belong to Jenkins Rentals.

According to Lt. Jared Martin, the Salvation Army’s last location was 7,000 square feet that they rented for approximately a dollar a square foot. By moving to a smaller location they are still able to offer the same amount of clothing, but may have less furniture.

“Thrift stores are so much fun because every time you come in feels like a treasure hunt,” Martin said. “This building was like a treasure hunt for us too. The Salvation

The Salvation Army Thrift Store celebrated its ribbon cutting at its new location, 501 Meadowbrook Shopping Center.

Army has a promise to do the most good. When people shop with us, I want to make sure we spend as much as we possibly can helping the people that are need.”

Martin pointed out that when shoppers come to the Salvation Army, they “shop for good.”

“When you shop here, you make a difference,” Martin said. “You’re not just buying clothes, you’re giving people a chance to change their lives. All the profits we make at the store we put back into our social services. Every purchase you make makes a lasting difference in some-

one’s life.”

Funds raised at the thrift store help send kids to the summer camp Camp Happyland, provide utilities assistance, help fund their Angel Tree program and help purchase food for the Salvation Army’s food pantry.

BIZ BIO The People of Wellspring: George Stergis, MD It took a bit of neighborly advice to get George Stergis to realize where his real passion lies.

When he was a teenager, Stergis spent a lot of time trying fix up motorcycles. His neighbor, a doctor, couldn’t help noticing where Stergis seemed to be headed— and finally, that neighbor said something about it.

“He came out and told me not to work on motorcycles, and think about going to medical school instead,” Stergis said. “I did, and thanked him years later.”

Fast forward about 35 years, and Stergis, a neurologist, is now a part of the Wellspring Health Services team at its Specialty Services Clinic on Sunset Lane in Culpeper.

He thinks he’s found a good professional fit.

“I like that Wellspring is

community-based, with such a cordial staff,” Stergis said.

“Our structure and approach allows us to respond quickly to patient needs, and that’s important to me.”

Stergis has been fascinated with the human nervous system ever since he started medical school. He has channeled that fascination into several areas of special interest, including caring for elderly people experiencing dementia.

And though he’s lived as far away as California, Stergis has called Culpeper home for 27 years.

“There’s so much to like about this area,” Stergis said. “People are friendly, the environment is relaxed—and unlike my time in California, there are no freeways.”

Gottfried discusses The Maps of the Wilderness Civil War author Dr. Bradley Gottfried will be presenting and signing copies of his book, The Maps of the Wilderness: An Atlas of the Wilderness Campaign, May 2-7, 1864.

The event begins at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, May 11 at the Museum of Culpeper History (113 South Commerce Street,).

For more information visit: http:// culpepermuseum.com The Maps of the Wilderness: An Atlas of the Wilderness Campaign, May 2-7, 1864 is the fifth installment in the Savas Beatie Military Atlas Series.

This latest magisterial work breaks down the entire campaign (and all related operational maneuvers) into 24 map sets or “action-sections” enriched with 120 original full-page color maps. These spectacular cartographic creations bore down to the regimental and battery level. The Maps of the Wilderness includes an assessment of the winter of 1863-1864, the planning for the campaign, the crossing of the Rapidan River, and two days of bloody combat and the day of watchful stalemate thereafter.

At least one—and as many as eight—maps accompany each “actionsection.” Opposite each map is a full facing page of detailed footnoted text describing the units, personalities, movements, and combat (including quotes from eyewitnesses) depicted on the accompanying map, all of which make the story of the first large-scale combat of 1864 come alive. Each cartographic snapshot also serves to unlock everything ever written on the subject. This detailed coverage also includes an order of battle, interview with the author, bibliography, and an index.

Dr. Bradley M. Gottfried holds

CULPEPER YOUTH SPOTLIGHT

a Ph.D. in Zoology from Miami University. He has worked in higher education for more than three decades as a faculty member and administrator, and just retired as the President of the College of Southern Maryland. He also serves as a board member of the Central Virginia Battlefield Trust.

An avid Civil War historian, Dr. Gottfried is the author of 10 books.

Give Local Piedmont raises more than $879,000 in 2018

(Editor's note: This is weekly series highlighting members of Culpeper's Youth Council. To join Culpeper Youth, go to www.culpeperyouth.org to apply.)

School: Culpeper County High School Grade: 9th Age: 14 After High School I plan on becoming a Social Psychologist, or a Clinical Psychologist; both of which require me to have at least a Masters Degree to practice in my field. Therefore I plan to attend a large public university, while also participating in a paid internship. This will help support me financially, and also give me the experience I need in my field of work. Joining Culpeper Youth has helped me get closer to being able to carry out my plan of action. Culpeper Youth has taught me numerous leadership skills that will be useful in college, and later in life, when I am placed in leadership positions. I have also improved my cooperative skills as we have to continuously work with each other to achieve tasks and common goals. Working cooperatively is essential in today’s market. I have also improved my organizational skills thanks to the various social and community activities we carry out through Culpeper Youth.

All these skills will be vital for me to succeed in the real world, therefore I am grateful to the opportunities provided to me via Culpeper Youth.

Based on all the numbers, it’s clear that Give Local Piedmont is setting down roots. The fifth annual 24hour Day of Giving raised more than $879,000—more than a 10% increase over last year—for 158 regional nonprofits and boasted a record high number of unique donations at 5,495. The total once again included a $100,000 bonus pool from the PATH Foundation and $30,000 in prizes from generous sponsors whose participation is vital in keeping the program successful.

About three-quarters of the 158 participating charities received 10 or more donations, with eight organizations bringing in more than 100 donations, ranging from the minimum of $10 to as high as $10,000.

“We are thrilled!” said NPCF Executive Director Jane BowlingWilson. “County donations and support exhibited through this one-day campaign are nothing short of amazing. Our nonprofits accomplish wonderful things, often with limited budgets and staff. These compassionate, committed people do incredible work done for others, creating opportunities and possibilities where none existed. Leveling the playing field and creating equitable opportunities for all is no small task, yet they continue to do this important work.”

Proud to serve the Culpeper community!

Culpeper Middle School students learn price of war

By Jeff Say

Culpeper Times Staff Writer Culpeper Middle School students learned about the sacrifices made to help keep our country free during a trip to Culpeper National Cemetery April 30.

Culpeper Middle School history teachers Sully Carter and Mackenzie Holt brought three separate groups of seventh graders to the cemetery to teach them about the ultimate cost given by U.S. soldiers.

“A lot of them have never been to this cemetery,” Carter said. “They don’t really understand the importance of it, of burying Union soldiers. A lot of kids live right here in town and know this is right across the tracks.”

The Culpeper National Cemetery was originally started in the 1800s, after the Civil War, as a resting ground for Union soldiers. Now, soldiers from the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Vietnam and conflicts as recent as Afghanistan rest here just over the railroad tracks on the East side of town.

Matthew Priest, Director, Culpeper, Winchester, Staunton, Balls Bluff National Cemeteries, said it’s important to give the younger gen-

eration a sense of patriotism and let them know that Culpeper is the resting place of the nation’s heroes.

“It’s good to have the community come out and even greater to have the younger population to see how we memorialize our veterans, our heroes,” Priest said. “Everything these people have done for our country is astonishing and we should be constantly grateful for all of it.”

Carter said his class is at the end of the U.S. History 2 curriculum which starts at the end of the Civil War and runs through the Spanish American War, World War I, World War II, Korea, the Cuban Missile Crisis and Vietnam.

Earlier in the year, the class took a trip to the Marine Corp Museum but this was a much more sobering venture.

“There you see the glory of fighting, but here you see ultimate sacrifice,” Carter said. “It’s a very good combination.”

Last Monday, Jase Pickering sat, taking notes next to the gravesite for George Richard, a World War II veteran who passed away in 1995.

Having that connection to the past resonated with Pickering.

“It’s pretty exciting,” Jase Pickering said.

Jace Pickering takes notes during a recent seventh grade trip by Culpeper Middle School students to the Culpeper National Cemetery.

Annabelle Lunsford said her family members have served in the armed forces and she has been to Culpeper National Cemetery before.

“You get to see the sacrifices they made and get to thank them for risking their lives for us,” Annabelle Lunsford said.

She said this was more touching than the visit to the Marine Corp Museum.

“This is a little more said,” Lunsford said. “It reminds us what we have to do to stay safe and have

our freedoms.”

Carter said this is the first trip the seventh graders have taken to the cemetery in three years, the last being coordinated by his mentor Toni Sheads, who retired from teaching.

Priest said he hopes to continue the visits, as he smiled looking at the enthusiastic seventh graders exploring the cemetery.

“It is great to have the younger generation see this and see the sacrifice it takes to enjoy the basic freedoms we have,” Priest said.

GS Troop 3126 earns bronze award with geocache project

By Jeff Say Culpeper Times Staff Writer Girl Scout Troop 3126 is looking to put Spilman Park on the map.

The junior members of the troop planted geocache locations at Spilman Park in Northern Culpeper County May 6, in an effort to bring more people to the only park in that area of the county as their Bronze Award project.

“The girls wanted to bring something else for bigger kids to do in this park,” troop leader Celia Faulk said. “We thought it would bring more people out to enjoy nature, but also to try something new. Geocaching is a worldwide scavenger hunt.”

The hobby uses either a phone or GPS device to log into a Geocache app made by Groundspeak.

Geocache enthusiasts log into the app and track geocache devices by the coordinates left by the troop.

Once they’ve been found, visitors make a note that the they’ve found the location and leave a message.

The troop planted a total of four geocache locations, with one being a multi-cache location. In the one, visitors must find the first geo-

cache, be directed to the second and then the third before they can register it.

The scouts also received a geocache badge during the completion of their bronze award.

The Bronze Award is a troop activity, but the next two levels - silver and gold - are obtained by the individual scout.

The troop had to present four options in front of the Culpeper County Parks and Rec committee - a Little Free Library, a bird and bee house, a pollinator trail and the geocache locations. The committee chose the geocache as renovations are planned at the park and that project would not be impacted by the plans.

There was discussion of putting a free little library at Lenn Park, but all the scouts live in the Emerald Hill School District and wanted to do something that would impact the community in which they live.

Faulk said her family has been participating in geocache for four years and said that all ages enjoy the hobby.

“It’s a good way to get the family outside,” she said.

Izzy Hallberg said getting outside is one of the scouts’ missions.

Grace Faulk, Beatrice Mantel and Peyton Brooks show off one of the Geocache locations that they placed at Spilman Park in Northern Culpeper County May 6.

“You can also do this with your friends and meet new friends too,” Hallberg said.

The girls were allocated a budget and bought supplies at Target, then took a meeting to put together the geocache locations.

“It was kind of complicated in some ways,” Miranda Prezleski

said.

The bottom of the locations include information on what to enter on the app and includes information about the Girl Scouts mission.

While the locations were planted on May 6, they will not be “live” until they are approved the geocache app, which could take two weeks.

Culpeper Times Staff Writer The oldest cattle breed on record in the U.S. will be celebrated during a seven-day mini congress originating at Lakota Ranch in Remington.

Jeremy Engh, of Lakota Ranch, Treasurer of Red Devon USA said that breeders of Devon from all over the world will be descending upon Culpeper County May 20-28 for the weeklong mini congress that will highlight the breed and help farmers find new ways to market the historic cattle.

According to Engh, there are five countries that are the primary breeders of Devon cattle - Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, the U.S. and Brazil. Every four years, they have a gathering in one of the countries to compare notes and show the breed, with a full congress being held in the United States once every 20 years. This mini congress is just a precursor to what Engh hopes will be a giant celebration of the breed’s 400th anniversary of coming to America in 2024.

“We travel the country and look at Devon cattle,” Jeremy Engh said. “Devon are an old British breed and the oldest breed on record in this country. Devon cattle were in the old days coveted because they were triple purpose. They were beef, they were milk, they were oxen. They were docile, they lasted a long time. They could adapt to different environments. That’s why they were heavily used in the development of this country.”

Engh said that the breed fell out of favor because farmers leaned toward feedlots, focusing on the quantity of beef and not the quality. Now, there’s a resurgence of Devon because they are smaller - meaning you can have more head of cattle on smaller acreage and for the quality of their beef.

Their other trait is that they perform well

on only grass fed diet - which Lakota Ranch is known for. Only five percent of cattle in the world can only feed on on grass, which makes the Devon appealing.

For the past nearly 20 years, there has been an uptick in the demand for grass fed beef farmed without antibiotics.

“I would say that at the turn of the century there’s a noticeable spike in the interest in grass fed, but also in Devon cattle,” Jeremy Engh said.

Engh said that the health benefits of 100 percent grass fed beef is driving the market, pointing out customers get three times the Omega-3s and Omega-6s with grass fed Devon. What beef enthusiasts look for is the amount of marbelization on beef and Devon marble as well on grass as other breeds do on corn. Engh said that the smaller carcasses of the Devon - about 1,000 pounds generally - can produce as much beef per acre than a neighbor with 1,400 pound carcass animals.

Lakota Ranch The Engh family have farmed at Lakota in Remington since 1991, but have a history with Devon going back to the 1950s and Jeremy’s grandfather Dr. Otto Engh. Dr. Engh established a hospital in Arlington called the National Hospital for Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation which was at the time exclusively for polio, according to Dr. Gerald Engh, his son. Jerry Engh, now farming at Lakota with his son Jeremy, said that after the soft polio vaccine was invented, they had a hospital but no kids with polio. So his father worked with the federal government to convert the hospital to treat injured government workers and partnered with Senator Wayne Morse through the Hill-Burton Act to make it happen. That led to a friendship with Senator ➤ See Lakota, Page 7

➤ Lakota, from Page 6 Morse, who was a patron of the Devon breed.

Jerry started showing Devon cattle with Senator Morse and started farming them in 1980 in Nokesville.

“At the time we had Angus cattle but we started cross breeding with Devon bulls. We liked the Devon cattle because they were so easy to manage. We actually converted from being commercial Angus breeders to Devon breeders,” Jerry said.

Lakota has grown to 150 breeding animals which calve every year, plus another 100 Devon on leased farms in Culpeper, Fauquier and Westmoreland counties. They also have another 200 Devon-cross cattle.

The Mini-Congress The first Devon congress was held in 1980 in Great Britain, with the first U.S. congress coming in 1984. Every 20 years, the congress returns to the U.S. with the last occuring in 2004. The next full congress in the U.S. will be held in 2024, but the min-congress scheduled for the end of May will feature approximately 50 Devon breeders with close to 100 expected at Lakota on the first day of the tour. They’ll start in Virginia for three days, beginning at Lakota before visiting Stratford Hall in Montrose and then Longwood Farm in Catlett where the breed’s national show will be judged by international judges. From there they will travel to Pittsburgh, Pa. to visit 4 Seasons Farm in Cranberry Twp., Pa., Kittanning Hollow Farm in East Brady, Pa. and Lamppost Farm in Columbiana, Ohio. They will then fly out of Pittsburgh to travel to Montana where they will tour Montana Red Devons.

The mini congress allows the breeders to share best practices and discuss the best ways to market the breed.

“It’s certainly sharing ways of production,” Jeremy Engh said. “We do total grass production here, which is foreign to them. In England, cattle are bred more for the showring.

In Australia they are bred more for the feedlot market. New Zealand is mostly grass like us, Brazil is more like Australia. There’s different production goals but everybody respects good quality cattle. What’s working in your country for promotion? What’s driving them in the industry in a purebred breed like us with 200 members, you can’t make a living selling to each other.”

Engh explained that the breeders are trying to sell the Devon bulls to commercial Angus breeders and other breeders of cattle.

While there are 200 Devon breeders, there are probably another 1,000 farmers who own a Devon bull they’re not using for purebred use.

Engh said that his family has exported bulls to England, Brazil, Australia, Canada and Mexico and they are hoping that the mini congress helps them find ways to expand their global reach.

“We would welcome breeders from around the globe,” Jeremy Engh said. “Argentina has Devon activity as well. There’s some Devon cattle activity in South Africa, there’s some small activity in lots of different areas. Again globally, there’s less than 20,000 of these animals. There’s probably 20,000 Angus cattle in the state of Virginia.”

The distribution method Lakota Farm sells meet through a vari-

Local News

ety of different ways, including through their farm store and by their new custom ordering hub online (www.lakotafreshfoods.com).

“We also wholesale to butcher shops,” Engh said. “Primarily what we do is people start a grass fed beef business and they are producing 25 beef per year and all of a sudden they have an order for 50. We provide the overflow.”

Engh said that they are a small farm, but

by East Coast standards they are considered big and as far as grass fed beef goes “we’re probably big as anybody.”

The farm has two full time employees while their kennel operation and the Lakota Hunt Club have one full time employee each.

They farm approximately 726 acres at Lakota with a total of 2,100 including leased land.

Those cattle feed on a pure grass diet which they interseed every pasture with a 20seed mix every three years. In addition to the native fescue, they also add white hemp, sweet clover, alfalfa, yellow clover, red clover, crown vetch and groundhog radishes just to name a few. They also have a BMR Sudan grass that grows through the summer, which is common for hunting preserves to add bird cover.

Knowing what seeds to plant, when to plant them and how often is part of the farmer’s job - which can sound more like a scientist at times.

“I would say that’s not just grass farming but all facets of agriculture now,” Jeremy Engh said. “Twenty years ago, you could buy a bag of fertilizer, 50-50-50, throw it on the field and what you didn’t really need was no big deal because it was cheap. The cost of feed, fuel and fertilizer has all skyrocketed. The dairy farmer next door knows exactly how much energy is in that feed ration because he can’t afford to give a cow too much.”

Feeding the cattle properly and making sure preventive maintenance - such as a vaccination program and mineral program - is key to keeping the cattle profitable.

“If you do those things right, the cattle are healthy and you don’t have any problems,” Jeremy Engh said. “The big thing for us is we can’t treat with antibiotics to have our grass fed label. A sick animal that requires treatment, all of a sudden her beef value drops by more than half.”

Jeremy and Jerry tout their beef as some of the healthiest, as they stand beside King George, their prized bull. The history of their breed is of utmost importance to them and keeping the bloodlines going is something they often discuss leading up to the 2024 Congress - which marks the 400th anniversary of the breed coming ashore.

They hope to recreate the Devon coming ashore at the 2024 congress.

“The hope is we have Plymouth Plantation on board, which is another Devon farm where the first Devon cattle came ashore,” Jeremy Engh said. “The true Congress will take place up there, but our farm will be a big stop on the tour as well.”

They can track their bloodlines to the Lee family’s bloodlines at Stratford Hall - thanks in part to the copy of the 1853 American Devon Record they keep. It’s an offshoot of Davey’s Devon Herd Book which can trace back the lineage of every cow on their farm.

“No other breed has a book that goes back that far,” Jeremy said of the American Devon Record. “It’s kind of the crown jewel of our Devon memorabilia.”

A landscape or front walkway, a patio space, koi pond, outdoor kitchen entertaining area it really can be just about anything since we do so many things. But this time of year you can bet I will get to see the landscape at its peak.

May is as spring as it gets. It often seems as though everything that can bloom is in bloom in may.

Lavender is one of my favorites to walk up on. That sent fills the air and you know somewhere in the landscape you are going to get to see the

beautiful flower and breath that smell.

Wisteria grows wild on the road sides with graceful drooping flowers hanging from the trees. Azaleas are blooming

with all of their splendor. Honey locust filling the air with a sweet smell similar to that of honey suckle. It truly is the best time of year to be outside.

So what tips this month I have pondered for the past few weeks. How to plant? How to transplant? How to ➤ See Landscape, Page 9

➤ Landscape, from Page 8 prune, or what to prune now? It seems I can cover most of these any time of year so what is it that I think could use said. What is the most common question I get this time of year and what advise can I give today that will help you in the coming months?

Well the most common Question this time of year is typically related to grass or the maintenance there of, so here are some tips to take care of your lawn this early season to help ensure you have a healthy lawn later when it gets hot.

The most common lawn in our area is going to be filled with Fescue and/ or blue grass and lucky for us both of these grasses have very similar needs.

First and foremost if you have not had a soil test done get it done.

There is no reason to fertilize a lawn that does not need it and if you're having ph issues the needed nutrients cannot get into your lawn anyway. Go into the lawn with a small hand spade or claw hammer gather 15-20 golf ball size samples of soil from just under the grass mix it up and get it in for testing.

Once you have the test back you can set your plan of attack in motion.

While you wait for the soil test check your turf and your mower. Be sure your using clean maintenance equipment in proper working condition. Leaking oil or fuel on your

History

lawn is no good. Check that blades are sharp and deck adjustments are calibrated. Lawns in our area should be cut between 3 and 3.5" tall. This will help to keep your grass healthy and the weeds at bay.

Check your lawn to see if there are any bare areas that need some last minute re seeding or sod and for goodness sakes, use quality material.

When it comes to your landscape remember Mother Nature can get downright nasty so buying the cheapest thing you find so you can brag to your buddy about the deal you just got will more than likely turn around to bite you in the tail. There is a huge difference in the qualities of materials you can purchase and install in your landscape.

Today just before I came into the office to write this article I had the pleasure of meeting two long time Culpeper residents and walked there incredible landscape with them. I was so impressed with their wisteria and the way they had worked to keep it perfectly perched upon their pergola I had to ask if I could share it with all of my readers. Thankfully they said I could so please enjoy the picture. Wish everyone could have seen it in person.

R E A L E S TAT E First quarter market conditions remain brisk The Greater Piedmont Realtors® market area showed a 19.19% surge in sold dollar volume to $182,422,199 for the first quarter from the same period a year ago. The robust gain was the result of a combination of a 3.09% rise to 501 units sold and a 15.62% jump to an average sold price to $301,000 respectively over the same period.

The surge in both average and median sold price continues to be driven by the lack of inventory facing the region. In March, 2018 the region had 850 active listings compared to the 5-year average of 1,023 units.

The following key takeaways provide a comprehensive overview of the Greater Piedmont Realtors® market area: - Active listings fell 14.9% to 850 at the end of the quarter, the lowest level in five years.

Ratio of Average Sales Price to Original List Price As reported earlier the lack of inventory has led to pricing power for sellers in terms of negotiating strength.

As a result, the following changes occurred in the First Quarter: Madison Country’s change of 4.06 percent led the group (94.5 percent), followed by Rappahannock 4.39 percent change (90.3 percent), Fauquier 2.98 percent (94.4 percent) and Orange 2.41 percent change (95.7 percent) and, last Culpeper .91 percent increase (96.7 percent), which is the highest ratio of the 5 counties.

Rappahannock (277 days) showed a 6.1 percent reduction from 2017, Fauquier (121 days) up 31.52 percent, Madison (107) down 17.69 percent, Culpeper (88 days) up 2.33 percent and Orange (86 days) down 34.35 percent.

- Seller “pricing power” improved. The ratio of average sales price to original list price tightened to by 2.56% to 95% over the same period. The negotiability between buyers and sellers was reduced as inventory declined.

- Consistent with faster marketing time fueled the 2.7% decline to 108 average days on market from the same quarter a year ago.

Despite the 108-day average, 21.6% of all sales in the quarter sold in ten days or less, further proof of a low inventory market with high demand.

In summary, the Greater Piedmont Realtors® market area had a very positive first quarter in terms of traditional market measurements like average sales prices, days on market and giving sellers an upper hand in negotiations.

However, the lack of inventory has real estate professionals concerned. Of primary note is that the Greater Piedmont Realtors® is fast approaching exceeding generating $200m in sales per quarter and trending towards a $1b year.

The biggest gainer this Quarter was Culpepper for a 19.76 percent increase in median sales price ($297,000), followed by Rappahannock’s growth 13.59 percent ($418,000) and, then, Fauquier at 9.38 percent growth ($385,000).

The remaining two counties saw declines: Orange, 2.02 per-

cent decline ($230,000) and Madison a more modest .25 percent decline ($199,000).

FILM • “The Pianist” (Focus Features, 2002 – R-Rated*) Adrien Brody won the Academy Award for Best actor for his sensitive portrayal of famed Polish pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman as he struggles to survive the onslaught of Nazi tyranny during World War II in this drama based on his memoirs. A composer and pianist, Szpilman was playing live on the radio in Warsaw when the station was bombed during Nazi Germany's invasion of Poland. Szpilman and his family were soon forced from their home into the overcrowded Warsaw Ghetto. He later aided the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (April 19 – May 16, 1943), the largest single revolt by Jews during World War II. Szpilman eventually reclaimed his artistic gifts, and confronted his fears--with aid from an unlikely source. The film also won Oscars for Best Director (Roman Polanski) and Best Adapted Screenplay (Ronald Harwood) and was nominated for Best Picture of the year. 150 min. *No one under the age of 17 will be admitted without a parent or guardian.

FILM • “The Dam Busters” (Warner Bros., 1955) This British epic war film depicts the true story of the May 16, 1943 “Operation Chastise,” when the RAF's 617 Squadron attacked the Ruhr dams in Nazi Germany with British engineer Barnes Wallis's bouncing bomb, an explosive designed to drop into reservoirs and cause massive flooding to Germany's industrial hub. “The Dam Busters” takes a documentarylike approach, focusing in the first part on the development and testing of the special bomb and in the second section, the carefully orchestrated preparations for the mission and its execution. The film was a financial and critical success, receiving special praise for its accuracy, direction, cinematography and special effects.

FILM • “M2duO” (Live) Made up of violinist Machiko Ozawa and pianist Makia Matsumura, the M2duO are often billed as a “Japanese tango duo.” Ozawa and Matsumura both graduated from The Tokyo University of Arts, and studied at The Juilliard School. They started performing together at the Café Mozart in New York City’s Upper West Side where they started to play Astor Piazzolla’s tango scores and went on to arrange and play oldies from their home country reinvented as tango pieces. Aside from their growing love for tango, they have each pursued their own unique paths: for Ozawa, it was “tap violin” (tapdancing while performing the violin)

VIEWS Reflecting on my first teacher This week I found myself standing amid the confluence of two tides of thought.

Marshall Conner Teacher Appreciation Day allowed me to reflect on the great teachers that shaped my life, but it was Mother’s Day that had me thinking about my first teacher… my mother.

When my mother died nearly 25 years ago she was in her early fifties--that doesn’t seem old to me today.

I would like to reflect on a few life lessons she taught me.

When I asked her in the toughest times how she always managed to find love for my brothers and I she answered, “I will always love you—I may not always like you, but I will always love you.”

I learned that creativity, laughter and imagination are limitless resources.

I learned that it is ok to sing aloud when you need a boost. I will never

THE MARSHALL PLAN

forget hearing her belt out “Blue Bayou” word-for-word with Linda Ronstadt or dancing to “Love Shack” by the B-52s.

I remember her pride in seeing my father in his Army uniform. I also recall the proud smile she gave me when I returned home from basic training wearing my own Army uniform. Eight years later, I wore it to her funeral one last time before leaving the military and returning to college.

I remember her courage as a military wife and mother holding the family together during my father’s many deployments. As a child, I remember my mother building tinker-toy airplanes with me. Out of a pile of colored sticks and wooden circles we built an odd assortment of flying-machines and named ourselves the “wrong brothers” in a parody of the Wright brothers. In the years my father served in Vietnam my mother and I deflected our fears by watching Creature Feature and popping popcorn.

I loved her laugh. She made every house we lived in a home.

I recall her love for the natural world and her limitless heart for animals great and small. I once witnessed her step

from a car and open her hands during a spring snow and a little sparrow landed in her palm. It left me speechless.

My mother bought me my first novel, Ernest Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea.” She said, “I think this will be a favorite.” She was right.

One of the great tragedies is that she passed away before the growth of the internet. You see she loved to study UFOs, bigfoot, ghosts and other mysteries—I can only imagine where she would have explored.

As a father with two kids I understand her so much better now. I realize I should have helped her more, talked to her more and of course hugged her a bit more.

Sometimes it’s tough to see the struggles of our parents when we are young and selfish. I wish I could thank her for the tough lessons too like sending me to military school, telling me that life can be unfair, and that life is fleeting.

She also said, “Our faith is our last fortress.”

Old age is a luxury she never received. She missed five grandchildren she would have adored.

If your mother is alive share your

thoughts, dreams, attention and time with her while you can.

Our mothers are our first teachers.

When I think of the perfect image of a mother it resides in a little church in Buxton, North Carolina.

A statue named Our Lady of the Seas, stands in the front entrance of a church of the same name.

The statue is based on an idea conceived by a Fr. André Izac and his parishioners. It was created by Demetz Art Studio in Italy. It is handcarved, hand-painted, and the statue is captivating.

The church’s description follows: “The statue depicts a youthful mother with sand and seashells at her feet, the sea breeze blowing through her hair holding the globe of the earth for her son. His right hand firmly grasps his mother's hair lest he tumble from her arms as he reaches out to touch the seas of the globe. Beneath his hand can be seen Hatteras Island, the Outer Banks, and the North Carolina coastline.”

Our mothers are the first to hold us above the waves of life and the first to tell us how to navigate them.

Happy Mother’s Day.

What beauty looks like Her pace had noticeably slowed over the course of our meetings.

Katherine Charapich The ravages of cognitive challenges evident - in the mobility restrictions, as husband’s gentle support aided her to the couch in my reception area, in the desire to re-read sections of documents, as husband kindly and patiently sought to make sure she considered all possibilities, and in the decrease in verbal communications, a look from her to him confirming her words and desires.

Often, when writing joint estate plans for a couple who has been married for many decades, a beauty beyond measure is exhibited as part of the love language. “It brings me such happiness to know she is going to be in the room when I walk in. It is her presence that makes our house a home.” And, she responds, “I give him ‘the look;’ he knows what I mean.”

ESTATE STEWARDSHIP

There is a cadence and complimentary reliance that is so poignant it is easy to believe that passing thru this realm is just a temporary journey, and surely the two will be together in eternity.

Woven into our discussion of who should be named as agents under their powers of attorney, was the raw conversation of what if the husband or the wife was no longer able to take care of the other. Talking about estate planning matters can often bring unexpected emotions to the surface that are usually challenging to face, such as addressing issues of care and quality of life, and the use and distribution of assets.

The tears did surface. The enormity of and finality marked by the issues seemed overwhelming.

The response of gentle kindness was beautiful. The tender touch from husband to wife, “Do you understand?

Let’s talk thru this. I hope I am always here to care for you. I have done the best to plan, but if I am not, who would you trust?”

The Code of Virginia in § 64.2-1600

et seq., sets forth one approach, the principal granting authority to an agent, to help maintain the quality of life of the principal in what could rightfully be considered legal poetry, through the establishment of a power of attorney.

When one reaches eighteen years of age and realizes her parents are no longer able to make legally binding decisions for her, or is like my client who realized if she becomes mentally incapacitated and unable to make decisions for herself, taking action to put in place a plan for one’s care is prudent. In addition to other protective estate planning documents, neither the eighteen-year old, nor the senior adult had executed a power of attorney, making the exposure to plans and control that did not meet the intent of either fairly broad.

It was during our discussion of the structures of a power of attorney: the principal – the person giving agency, the primary agent and successor agents – those to whom the principal entrusts decisions about subject areas such as finances, care, legal matters,

and whether the document should be effective upon signing or upon incapacitation, that the deep love and commitment between husband and wife was evident.

The husband emotionally shared, “It has always been my goal to make sure she was provided for; I would want her to have a greater portion of any money I earned. She is my world.

She gave me children . . . How can I ever repay that?”

Each meeting with this precious couple left me in awe of the strength they found in their unit. In the midst of facing the challenges of aging, this husband celebrated the beauty of his wife.

Proverbs 31:25 (KJV) shares, “Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.” Perhaps this also means she shall have no fear of the time to come, that her eternal future is known. Her husband’s encouragement of sound planning visibly provided relief to his wife that the “here and now” is also ➤ See Beauty, Page 21

Myth or Reality: College is free for American Indians College is not a given for every hopeful in the United States.

While 28 percent nationwide hold a college degree, only 13 percent of American Indians do, and in some states, only 7 to 11 percent of Native students hold a college degree.

Why the disparity? There are many barriers, seemingly simple, and we should all care about changing them and supporting youth because they are our future.

Through no fault of their own, American Indian students are overlooked for scholarships. Often, this is due to less than a 4.0 grade point average, or lack of information about available scholarships, or the confronting belief that college is not an option for them economically.

Imagine having a dream of helping your people and being unable to fulfill it because you are unable to afford college.

After growing up on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana, I knew scholarships were my only pathway to college. Today, this has come full circle and I’m giving back by helping to raise college funds for other would-be Native graduates, in my role as VP of Development for Partnership With Native Americans (PWNA).

For nearly 30 years, PWNA has been serving Indian reservations – much of that time while in Elkwood and now from their office in the Culpeper Business Center. What I admire about PWNA is their passion and commitment to improving quality of life on Indian reservations with the highest need in the U.S. And let’s talk about that need. One in four Indian families lives with food insecurity or in a food desert, some an hour from a grocery store. The groceries that are local and affordable on the reservations are also less healthy and fuel the highest rates of diabetes and youth obesity in the country. Up to half of Native children are overweight or obese by the time they turn 10. A third of Native children are growing up in poverty,

AIEF – the American Indian Education Fund – is a PWNA program that annually funds 200 to 250 scholarships, as well as college grants, laptops and other supplies for Indian students. many in communities with Third World conditions.

The good news is, education is a hand up and out of cyclical poverty.

One of our many scholarship students, Lawrence Wright, Jr., saw this and changed his life through our scholarships.

An American Indian from Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo in New Mexico, and a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, Lawrence enlisted, served 3 tours in Iraq and earned a Purple Heart, all before college. After taking on shrapnel, facing two close calls with IEDs, and being shot at by sniper fire, Lawrence was awarded the Purple Heart and returned home to train and serve in law enforcement. But now, he wants to do more, so he’s pursuing a Master’s degree to fight counter-terrorism, and with his VA benefits exhausted, he turns to AIEF for funding. He shares, “A big part of my motivation comes from my brothers [Marines] who sacrificed their lives in Iraq. I try to make something of myself… that’s how I honor them."

Many people believe that American Indians go to college

for free, but they do not. But as Lawrence points out, “Most tribes have very little funding to assist their tribal members. We need more support, resources and scholarships like AIEF for the Native youth.”

AIEF – the American Indian Education Fund – is a PWNA program that annually funds 200 to 250 scholarships, as well as college grants, laptops and other supplies for Indian students. We also mentor these students, so 90 to 95 percent of them complete their college year, ensuring that donor funds are put to good use.

Our scholarships are open to American Indians nationwide who meet our simple criteria, including those living right here in Virginia.

Education is a key to selfsufficiency and sustainable tribal economies, which is good for all of us.

In this, we all have a chance to help create brighter futures and address the Third World conditions right here in the U.S. I would welcome a call from anyone wanting to learn more. You can reach me or my staff at 800-416-8102 or visit www. nativepartnership.org.

HISTORY Digging deeper into interesting stories Another teaser to feed your “anticipation.”

Coming to a newspaper near you- that would be the Culpeper Times, of coursewill be a series of stories on a tragic act of terrorism in our beloved America: the practice of lynching. Right out of the gate let me state that I know it is ugly, frightening and gruesome. I also know that across the country communities where lynching occurred have not truly healed.

They have not owned the travesties, nor perhaps do they recognize the relevance in the current acts of violence in the name of hatred, bigotry, oppression and white supremacy. We can do better and that is my goal.

I have no fantasies of changing

ZANN’S PLACE Zann Nelson

the world, however, I am compelled to do my small part. If you and others will read the stories all supported by facts, you will certainly become better informed and dare I say enlightened. We have stuck our heads in the sand, turned a deaf ear and a blind eye to horrific events meant to oppress a people through unadulterated fear. It is time we lift the veil and examine the facts.

You may be questioning: why now? It is my fervent hope that the atrocities perpetrated against people who were different and particularly those of a darker skin tone will always remain in our past, though the evidence of current-day hate groups and the resurgence of Ku Klux Klan activities would contradict that hope. The heinous acts of our fathers cannot be undone, but their transgressions continue to impact us all regardless of our ethnicity or religious beliefs in ways that are unhealthy and counterproductive to a progressive

Excerpt from an Article published Aug.16, 1877 in The Monongahela Republican.

(Editor's note)The referenced Culpeper Times of 1877 has no association with the current-day Culpeper Times publication. civilized nation. We can do better!

We can own our past, validate the victims and condemn such conduct then and now. The first step as uncomfortable as it might be is to learn the truth about a few of the events. The Equal Justice Initiative recently opened a memorial in Montgomery, Alabama to victims of lynching. They have documented four thousand individuals who were murdered between the years of 1877 and 1955. Most were black men, but not all.

Two of the victims were from Culpeper County, VA: Charles Allie Thompson (1918) and William Thompson (1877). We have learned of a third: the lynching of a free person of color in 1850. No doubt there were others who died of mysterious or undocumented causes. Nonetheless, we will focus on these three.

The story of Allie Thompson was meticulously researched by myself in 2005 and a three-part series was co-authored by Alison BrophyChampion and myself and published in 2006 by the Culpeper Star Exponent. I continued the research and discovered additional facts; we will have a look at those facts again.

The story of William Thompson, no relation to Charles Allie Thompson, headlined in The Monongahela Republican (Pennsylvania) How They Do in

Virginia: “An outrage was committed on the person of a young white girl by a negro man in the vicinity of Mitchells Station. Certainty, and severity, of punishment, is the only remedy for such heinous crimes.”

The statements were republished from an article in a local Culpeper paper. William Thompson was arrested then kidnapped from the jail and hanged before any evidence was collected or a trial conducted.

I was alerted to the third known incident by friend and history buff Tim Thompson (also no relation to the two Thompson men noted here). The man’s name was William Grayson and in 1850 he was accused of a crime and tried at court, but the locals were not satisfied with the outcome and chose to take matters into their own hands.

Stay tuned for the rest of the story!

Until next week, be well.

Charlie and Jane Barrell named 2018 Good Scouts

By Jeff Say

Culpeper Times Staff Writer Charles and Jane Barrell epitomize the values of Boys Scouts of America.

The longtime Culpeper residents were recognized for their dedication and love of the community by being named the 2018 Good Scouts at the 19th Annual Culpeper County Good Scout Award.

Charles moved to Culpeper in the ninth grade and joined Boy Scouts of America Troop 198 where he earned the rank of Life Scout and led a distinguished career as an engineer with the NASA Langley Research Center before going on to found the law firm of Davies, Barrell, Will, Lewellyn & Edwards.

He also served as Culpeper County Attorney for nine years.

Jane is also a native of Culpeper and graduated from Culpeper High School and later the University of Virginia, like Charlie. She served as a math teacher in Hampton, Madison and Orange counties before becoming a qualified Realtor with Wiland & Associates.

Throughout their lives, they have dedicated themselves to making Culpeper a nicer community to

live in, through various volunteer efforts.

Charlie serves as the vice chair of Culpeper Wellness Foundation and chair of the Novant UVA Health System Culpeper Medical Center and has served for the Culpeper Recreation Club, Culpeper County Library, Culpeper Recreation Foundation and President of F.O.R.E., Inc. Jane has served on several councils and boards including the Culpeper County Planning Commission, Culpeper County Library (co-chair of the fund drive for the new library), the Culpeper Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees and as a Culpeper County election official.

Those efforts all have ties back to the lessons that Charlie learned in the Boy Scouts.

“We’re all here to support the Boy Scouts,” he said accepting the honor. “Boy Scouts for me was a huge part of my life. Scouting is an outlet for kids that’s an alternative to competitive sports.”

The lessons learned through scouts through the scout law- "A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and

“They both exemplify the spirit of this award through their daily life,” said longtime friend Cathy Dalrymple in introducing the pair.

“Being a good neighbor is an art that makes life richer.”

Charlie’s law partner Rex Edwards joked that when he married his wife Cindy he received the

greatest wedding gift of all - Charlie and Jane.

“That gift has appreciated with time,” he said. “They’ve shared their gifts with the community, and one of the risks of being unassuming is being under appreciated.”

He noted that the Good Scouts honor was a well-deserved one and one that should spotlight their years of dedication.

Youth acknowledge Day of Prayer

By Amy Wagner

Contributing Writer A prayer service was organized and open to youth in the Culpeper community last Wednesday, May 2 in conjunction with the National Day of Prayer event taking place in communities nationwide.

Each year a theme is designated for the National Day of Prayer and this year’s theme was Pray for America – Unity.

This year, President of the National Day of Prayer, Dr. Ronnie Floyd, urged believers, nationwide, to encourage all people to unite in prayer acknowledging that “America is broken and divided” with alarming racial tension and lawlessness.

Erick Kalenga, pastor of His Village church in Culpeper, shared in a recent email message his thoughts on the National Day of Prayer.

“In light of our current situation and the issues that our young people are dealing with I felt compelled to organize the Youth National Day of Prayer event this year,” he said.

It’s been approximately six

“In light of our current situation and the issues that our young people are dealing with I felt compelled to organize the Youth National Day of Prayer event this year.”

Erick Kalenga Pastor of His Village church years since the local youth organization, Rize Up, organized this yearly event so this year Kalenga decided to step forward.

The prayers focused on the seven points of prayer as set by the National Day of Prayer event in addition to prayers for current issues facing youth today with a strong focus on families.

Kalenga feels it necessary to stand united in the fight against the evil that is destroying families.

“I believe this generation of young people is under a great deal of attack,” said Kalenga. Although hoping for a larger turnout Kalenga said he will spearhead the event again next year and allow

Groeneman to sign sports book May 20

Local author Sid Groeneman will sign copies of his new book, America’s Sports Fans: Who Roots for Whom and Why, at Crest Hill Antiques in The Plains on Sunday, May 20, from 12:004 p.m.. The event is free and open to the public.

The book describes who America's sports fans are, which sports they watch, which teams they follow, and why. It shows how fans are different from nonfans, and how fans of different sports are alike and dissimilar.

The book also presents national popularity rankings among the teams in Major League Baseball, the National Football League, the National Basketball Association, and the National Hockey League.

Based on in-depth interviews and original survey data from more than 1,800 fans and nonfans across the country, the book ranks the reasons fans like their favorite teams and illustrates those reasons with quotes and personal stories. It’s a lively examination of spectator sports in American life, and what that might look like in the future.

Crest Hill Antiques is located at 4303 Fauquier Avenue in The Plains; for more information or to RSVP, please call 540-2535790.

for a bit more planning and notice in advance.

The event was held at the Culpeper Baptist Church at 7 p.m. last Wednesday, May 2, with approximately twelve youth in attendance. Youth directors from Culpeper United Methodist, Chris and Traci Davis, attended this year and Traci brought the message for the evening that encouraged youth to develop their prayer life.

“I just wanted to get them excited about it (prayer) and encourage them to grow,” she said recently.

The Culpeper community offered three opportunities for prayer last week celebrating the National Day of Prayer.

A service was held earlier Wednesday, at noon, on the Courthouse lawn and there was an evening service on Thursday at 7 p.m. at Culpeper United Methodist Church.

In 1988 former President Ronald Reagan declared the first Thursday in May as a day of National Prayer.

A National Day of Prayer proclamation has been signed by every president since 1952.

'Waiting for Godot' worth waiting for CURTAIN CALLS

Samuel Beckett’s existential masterpiece, “Waiting For Godot,” has been described as a play in two acts in which nothing happens – twice.

That hasn’t stopped the sixtyfive year flow of opinion, speculation, theory, and questions about its meaning. But Beckett himself was no help to his audiences, much less directors and actors. “All I knew, I showed,” he once said in response to the usual queries. Perhaps it would be simpler to chalk it up to what passes for philosophy these days – “It is what it is.” But what is it?

As performed by Ireland’s Druid Theatre Co., guests of the Shakespeare Theatre Co., “Waiting For Godot” is funny, precise, enigmatic, streamlined. The estate of Samuel Beckett does not allow directors to color too far outside the lines. After all, what he wanted, he wrote – nothing more and nothing less. That doesn’t mean there’s no room for depth in the narrow, closed world of Didi and Gogo – “small men locked in a big space.”

That “big space”, created by scenic designer Francis O’Connor, evokes barren, cracked-earth hopelessness in a way that more littered landscapes never could. There’s a rock of course – Gogo has to sit somewhere – and a tree. Not much of a tree, though, and certainly not a tree capable of holding the body of someone intent on hanging himself, as the two men occasionally discuss. But contrary to broad opinion, something does actually change from Act I to Act II: The tree sprouts three leaves.

Director Garry Hynes does what surely even Beckett would applaud – she uses what she’s given. With Aaron Monaghan as Estragon (Gogo) and Marty Rea as Vladimir (Didi), thin but rich veins of repartee full of non sequiturs, elusive references, and humor are opened. Resembling classic comic duos – Laurel and Hardy, Mutt and Jeff, etc. – our heroes suggest with their random but intense dialogue the positive and negative spaces of a moving sculpture. And because we are far from the field of naturalism, there is a choreographed simplicity built into each move, whether Gogo is taking off a shoe or Didi is scanning the horizon.

Then Lucky and Pozzo arrive.

This review isn’t about rehashing the meaning of Lucky, beast of burden, obedient slave driven on the end of a rope by Pozzo, the martinet barking orders – or their reappearance in Act

Want to go?

What: “Waiting For Godot” Where: Shakespeare Theatre Co., Lansburgh Theatre, 450 7th St. NW, Washington, D.C. Call: (202) 547-1122 or visit ShakespeareTheatre.org Playing through May 20 II with the chain of power broken, Pozzo blind and Lucky dumb. Theirs is the disturbing pairing of coldbloodedness and unquestioning submission. Interpretations may be elusive, but the performances are solid.

Rory Nolan as Pozzo calls to mind the Mad Hatter – if the Mad Hatter were played by Mussolini. It’s a precise rendering and all the more admirable because we’re not the ones on the end of the rope. Garrett Lombard’s Lucky is everything you could wish for in a human pack mule, and when ordered to “Think!” produces a most astonishing stream of philosophical word salad gibberish – and a spontaneous eruption of applause from the audience.

It’s all to pass the time while Godot doesn’t come. The inescapable thought here is ‘futility.’ The young boy who brings the news that Godot won’t come today but will come tomorrow is played alternately by Malcolm Fuller and Harrison Wright.

The boy is like a straw one clutches on an ocean of emptiness, for he knows Godot, and Godot knows that he is waited upon – and he will not come tomorrow. Night falls, and the first deep breath of beauty passes over the landscape as a pearl moon enters and the shadows turn blue.

“Waiting for Godot” is something of a dramatic Rorschach test. In spite of Beckett’s insistence that he wrote only what he knew, it’s nearly impossible not to superimpose one’s own meanings on it. Are we all just the Gogos and Didis of the world, the Luckys and Pozzos absorbed in the fleeting minutiae of our lives as we wait for something important to come? Or did Beckett, after serving years at the pleasure of James Joyce writing “Finnegan’s Wake”, determine that sanity compelled him to either write a play or hang himself?

There are no answers, only endlessly amusing speculations.

There is, however, an historical note of great interest. “…Godot’s” first doubtful arrival on the theatre scene in 1953 was met with puzzlement and derision. Not until a few influential critics took it seriously did the European public give it a second look. And when an inmate in a German prison translated the original French version into German, it was performed to great success in the prison.

In 1957, “Waiting For Godot” was performed at San Quenton for the

Critics and public alike may argue over its significance, but the

prisoners got it.

For the adventurous spirit Torrontes is off the beaten path. While it’s the most widely planted white grape of Argentina, it still isn’t well known outside of the country. It has a unique personality with a gorgeous floral nose, followed by tropical fruit flavors.

Upfront the aromatics imply sweet, but Torrontes is typically bone dry, refreshing and crisp. The added bonus, since Torrontes is still fairly new on the scene, the prices are very reasonable.

Is she always full of surprises? Pinot Gris is a fascinating varietal whose flavors can vary greatly.

It depends on the region in which it was grown and produced.

Pinot Gris is synonymous with Pinot Grigio from Italy. In France the word “Gris” means “Grey” accounting for the color which varies from a light grey to an almost pink hue.

The Pinot Gris from France tends to be a bit more floral and honeyed than Pinot Grigio from Italy, which exhibits more lemon and lime zest. Oregon is another terrific region for Pinot Gris. There the wines have lovely floral aromatics with creamy pear, mineral and bright tangerine flavors.

A dry Rosé is perfect for the footloose and fancy free mom. Produced all over the world, but probably most notably in Provence, Rosé is the perfect partner when anything can happen and probably will.

Typically these wines are lean, dry and yet fruity with aromas and flavors of rose petals, strawberries and watermelon combined with bright acidity.

A down-to-earth kinda mom is a good candidate for a spectacular bottle of Pinot Noir.

Earthy is a term used to describe wines with you guessed it, earthy characteristics. Things like mushrooms, wet stone, forest floor, etc.

Many Pinot Noirs offer up these types of expressions all while providing plenty of fruit, it just isn’t front and center.

Should you decide to cook for Mother’s Day too, a wild mushroom and spring asparagus risotto is a fantastic pairing.
