Top 5 RED foods to eat for a healthy heart

by Ron Stringfellow

It’s Heart Health Month meaning this month is ablaze with the color red! The purpose of the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women movement is to call attention to the fact that heart disease is the #1 killer of women (and men). Take care of your heart and tap into the heart-healthy power of eating red to garner the healing power of this fabulous group of nutrition powerhouse foods.

Red is the new green, at least as far as heart-healthy eating goes. The bright hue of red foods (and no, I don’t mean the Red Hots candy you ate as a kid!) is a sure sign the food is packed with a lot of disease-fighting antioxidant plant chemicals. The specific phytochemicals include some names you may have heard before: lycopene, carotenoids and resveratrol.

Here is a list of the top 5 RED foods you should be eating on a regular basis to keep your ticker strong: • Tomates: Tomatoes and cooked tomato products (such as tomato sauce and tomato paste) are high in the powerful antioxidant, lycopene. Lycopene is a plant pigment responsible for the deep red color of tomatoes.

Lycopene has numerous health benefits, most notably

its ability to ward off prostate cancer in men. When it comes to heart health, lycopene stops LDL or “bad” cholesterol form becoming oxidized by free radicals to help prevent the formation of arterial plaque. Cooking tomatoes has been shown to increase the amount of lycopene that the body can absorb by breaking down plant cells that trap the substance, so eat that tomato sauce! Hey, great snack, Salsa and grain chips!

• Red Bell Peppers: Who knew? One red bell pepper has three times the vitamin C as an orange! Red bell peppers are also packed with other antioxidants as well as fiber which functions to keep your intestines in good shape as well as lower your cholesterol. Try snacking on red pepper with a hummus dip.

• Beets: Reddish purple beets are chock full of plant chemicals called anthocyanins which give them such a deep red color. Anthocyanin pigments and the associated flavonoid polyphenols have demonstrated the ability to protect against a myriad of human diseases, and anthocyanins are also powerful antioxidants that can protect the heart. Awesome health food.

• Apples: An apple a day truly does keep the doctor (cardiologist) away! Sometimes the best heart medicine is the kind you can get from your produce section. In this case, apples contain a large amount of pectin, a soluble fiber, which blocks cholesterol absorption in the gut and encourages the body to excrete the cholesterol.

Apple peels are also packed with polyphenols -antioxidants that prevent cellular damage from free radicals. So whatever you do, don’t toss the peel.

• Red wine: Red wine is liquid heart medicine. Studies have shown that drinking one glass a day with a meal promote clear, healthy arteries. Make sure to go red and not white when you choose your color of wine as red contains the powerful antioxidant resveratrol as well as flavonoids which partner together to ease arterial inflammation. Your best bet for maximum antioxidant power is to drink either pinot noir or cabernet sauvignon. Remember, one glass a day is all you need as any more could cause health problems. Don’t drink? Try a small glass of 100% Concord grape juice instead.

Do your heart a favor and “Go Red!” this month by including these heart-healthy red foods into your daily diet.

Add some of these foods to your day and with the support of Fitness Together you’ll surely be giving your heart the gift of health this Heart Health Month. Let a Fitness Together trainer work with you to develop a heart-healthy exercise program to accompany your heart-healthy diet, a program designed to meet your specific goals. You’ll also receive nutritional counseling through the Nutrition Together program, which will complement your workouts.

Through state-of-the-art techniques and science, Fitness Together combines strength training, cardio conditioning and nutritional guidance for a complete health and fitness solution that can help get you started toward making healthy, wellrounded food and exercise choices to support an active lifestyle. Call or come into our local studio today for more information on individual nutrition and exercise plans that can help you make your overall fitness goals and aspirations more attainable.

With a heart on the line Parks & Rec Director receives life-saving care at Prince William Hospital It was the last Saturday in July of 2012 and Jay Ellington, director of Prince William County Parks & Recreation, had planned a full morning of shoveling gravel for a patio at his home. All that changed over breakfast.

"My back and shoulders suddenly got a little tight," he explained. "I tried to shrug it off, but the feeling wouldn't go away."

By the time he made it upstairs to his wife, his tight muscles had morphed into full-blown chest pain.

"My wife said I was white as a sheet.

I sat down, took an aspirin and we called 911," Ellington recounted.

"Two medic units arrived at the house in about seven minutes. In another 15 minutes, I was at Prince William Hospital."

For Ellington, who lost his father to a heart attack, there was now no question what was happening.

"The confirmation for me was how quickly the pain intensified," he said.

He had celebrated his 61st birthday just nine days earlier and had no prior heart disease risk factors.

Alerted en route by EMS, the ambulance was met by the STEMI heart attack team - a doctor, ER staff and a catheterization lab nurse, who happens to be Ellington's neighbor. "I was rushed to the cath lab quickly," he explained. "Next thing I remember is coming out of the cath lab feeling much, much

better. I was out of the cath lab by 10:30 a.m. and asking for lunch by 11:30. You can say I recovered pretty quickly," he said with a smile.

By the book Ellington had a coronary artery blockage which was opened with a stent placement. Hamid Taheri, MD, director of Prince William Hospital's cardiac catheterization lab and founding member of Virginia Cardiovascular Associates, performed the surgery and now is Ellington's cardiologist.

"Mr. Ellington did everything by the book, everything we try to teach," Dr. Taheri said. "He didn't take any chances with his symptoms. He listened to his body. He took an aspirin and called 911."

He added, "The main artery to his heart was completely blocked.

If we didn't get that open in the first hour of his heart attack, he would have suffered major heart damage. Because he sought help so quickly, he suffered almost no heart damage."

The credit is shared between Ellington's quick thinking and Prince William Hospital's STEMI team and interventional cath lab.

Life-saving lab, streamlined STEMI, upgraded EMS "Prince William Hospital's cath lab opened in 2011 as a diagnostic lab so we could ready ourselves to open as a fully

operational, interventional cath lab in 2012," Dr. Taheri explained.

"Before, cardiac patients had to be transferred to other facilities for treatment. It was frustrating for us and for patients and their families.

Now we're equipped to handle everything right here 24 hours a day, seven days a week - delicate cardiac and vascular catheterizations, imaging, placement of stents, defibrillators and pacemakers, and more."

Ellington, who's just one of the 100 cases of heart attack patients treated in 2012 at Prince William's cath lab, is grateful. "I'm definitely glad Prince William Hospital has this cath unit, not only for me but for everyone else in Prince William County," he said. "Without it, I would have had to be airlifted to Fairfax. The extra time that would have taken could have damaged my heart."

Prince William's STEMI team - a streamlined network of providers and services that ensure lightningfast heart attack care - also helped.

"We track our time from the moment the patient arrives to when we open the blocked artery and we like that number to be under an hour," Dr. Taheri said. "We have systems in place to make sure that heart attack patients are diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible because every second counts when you're having a heart attack." He stressed this is why it's so important that patients who suspect a heart attack call 911 immediately.

"Prince William Hospital is partnering with the county's emergency medical services so they're equipped to perform EKGs right from your home. These can be sent to the hospital from your home wirelessly, so by the time you arrive we can already have our team assembled and ready to take you to the cath lab," Dr. Taheri said.

"Patients shouldn't wait for a better time to see us and they shouldn't try and drive themselves. They need to call 911 like Mr. Ellington did."

Pay attention to the signs, seek help promptly Ellington recovered for three days in Prince William's postsurgical unit and followed up with the hospital's 18-week rehabilitation program. "Their standard of care is remarkable. I learned how to exercise properly and my wife and I were taught how to eat a hearthealthy diet," he said.

These are changes Ellington has carried into his daily life. "I exercise three days a week. I'm working on increasing that to daily workouts," he explained. "As far as my diet, I read more labels, eat less salt and sugar and eat a lot more fish and chicken."

Ellington is back to all his favorite things - duck hunting along the Potomac and spending time with his wife, three children and two grandchildren. "I'm grateful I have the opportunity to keep watching them grow," he said. "I'll definitely be back to Prince William Hospital - it was a very positive experience from the time I was met at the ambulance to when I completed my rehab."

His advice for others? "Everyone is different. Pay attention to your body, especially if you experience something you haven't felt before.

Don't wait. Call 911 immediately," he said.

"Forty percent of heart attack patients are just like Mr. Ellington and their very first symptom is their first heart attack," Dr. Taheri reinforced. "Unfortunately, too many people don't see help right away - they're confused about their symptoms or don't want to wake their family to bring them to the emergency room and by the time we see them their heart is damaged."

He added, "Like many heart attack patients, Mr. Ellington didn't have high cholesterol or any other risk factors for heart disease. If I had met him the day before his heart attack, I would have told him he looked pretty good. He is a perfect example of what to do when you think something isn't right with your heart. It can save your life."

meet our member ESTATE PLANNING FOR SPECIAL NEEDS Ellen Winston | The Fauquier Bank

by Barbara Lloyd Kessinger, Esq.

Estate planning provides opportunities to address your current and future special needs as well as those of your loved ones. All adults who have capacity should ensure they have some sort of an estate plan in place. Estate planning is particularly important for families who care for someone with special needs.

CORNERSTONES OF A TYPICAL ESTATE PLAN The typical estate plan includes a will, powers of attorney, an advance medical directive, and a HIPAA authorization.

Many plans also include one or more trusts, which can be used to manage assets during your lifetime. A will enables a parent to nominate future guardians for minor children in the event the parent passes away prematurely.

A financial power of attorney typically takes effect upon signing, giving your agent(s) authority to handle your financial affairs. Virginia adopted the Uniform Power of Attorney Act in 2010. Your agent(s) must be given specific authority to take certain actions, underscoring the importance of having a financial power of attorney that reflects your needs and desires.

A medical power of attorney typically takes effect upon your incapacity, as determined by one or more physicians.

Your agent(s) should be able to make health ]care decisions for you at that time. An advance medical directive, also called a living will, sets forth your wishes concerning endof-life matters. A HIPAA authorization enables certain individuals to access your medical records.

Typically, you will need to update your will and/or trust periodically. Provisions in wills and trusts direct asset distribution according to your instructions; assets should not be directed outright to someone with special needs.

Generally, if you fully fund your trust during your lifetime, probate of your will can be avoided upon your passing.

CAPACITY Laws require a person who signs estate planning documents to have capacity (sound mind), with an understanding of the document being signed at the time of signing. Here are some practical inquiries:

It seems like every day there is a gardening catalog of some sort in my mailbox. Tools, seeds, plants – I study them all, circle things I would love to have, turndown page corners and add the new one to the pile of dreams.

Every catalog has great pictures and wonderful descriptions.

Unfortunately not all of this information is correct. The actual flower and leaf color can differ wildly from the printed page because the two step process of photographing and printing will do this. Read the text carefully. The flowers that are pictured are the very best they could find and sometimes they are bunched closer together than the real growth pattern you will have in your garden. I have strongly disagreed with some of the statements about how deer-proof a plant is. I will concede them some room on this because I know it varies from area to area depending on the likes and dislikes of each group of deer.

My biggest issue is with dealers offering plants that are difficult to grow but making it sound like we could have an abundance of them if we would only hand over a wheelbarrow full of money. A good example is the Himalayan Blue Poppy. This is a gorgeous flower and I would love to have it in my garden. The descriptions all say Zone 3-8 so we should be able to grow it in our Zone 7. What they don’t say is that it is extremely tricky to grow and that the best conditions replicate the side of the mountain in China that it is native to.

My solution to this is to use the catalogs for inspiration; to find out what the very newest hybrids are and get ideas for plants that I haven’t tried yet. I cut out pictures and make shopping lists. I edit, rank, circle and star because I know that I can’t afford nor can I plant and nurture everything on my list. Then I go to my local nurseries with a good chunk of time allotted and see what on my list matches up with what is actually available locally in real, I can see it and touch it form. If it is not the season for a plant to flower or look its best I have my list to refer to so that I don’t pass up a good thing. I often ask questions of the staff at the garden center because they are paid to know more than I do.

Inhaling the catalogs (someone somewhere believes that we will have warm weather again) and creating my list, okay, lists makes this time of year go by faster. When the growing season starts we will be ready for the glorious pursuit of MORE PLANTS!!

estate planning continued from page 10

funds belonging to the individual with special needs. (2) A pooled trust is a special type of first-party trust. (3) A third-party trust frequently is funded by assets that pour over from someone else’s will or trust. There are different rules depending on the type of special needs trust created.

A spouse can include a special needs trust for a spouse in a will.

Administration of a special needs trust is complex. The trustee must never distribute funds directly to the beneficiary.

By way of example, a properly administered special needs trust can provide assistive technology, enriched community experiences, and specialized training.

Wills – Is there an understanding of assets owned, who family members are, and to whom assets will be given?

Financial Powers of Attorney – Is there a present ability to contract and to empower an agent?

Medical and Health Care Documents – Is there a present ability to authorize an agent to act, to give informed consent for medical procedures, and to authorize others to obtain medical records?

Trusts – In addition to inquiries for Wills, is there a present ability to contract and to empower a trustee?

Sometimes attorneys have to consult with medical professionals to determine whether someone has capacity to sign legal documents. Whether an adult with special needs has capacity to sign documents largely depends on the nature of the disability.

SPECIAL NEEDS TRUSTS A special needs trust can enhance quality of life for your loved one with special needs. The trustee has full discretion over authorized distributions, and the beneficiary can never compel them. This sort of trust is designed to supplement, not replace, public benefits.

A parent can include a special needs trust for a child in a will or establish it in a stand-alone document.

There are three basic types of supplemental trusts that can be created for individuals with disabilities. (1) A first-party trust is funded by settlement proceeds or other

INCAPACITY Incapacity. It’s a word that makes us shudder. Some have children who have been incapacitated since birth. Others are confronting these issues with a spouse or sibling. Many have parents in the process of becoming incapacitated. All of these situations make us realize that we too could lack capacity someday.

The Good News – When powers of attorney have been signed previously by a recently incapacitated person, Guardianship and Conservatorship probably can be avoided.

Guardianship addresses personal and medical care, while Conservatorship addresses property and financial matters.

They are court-ordered and court-supervised. The Code of Virginia § 64.2-2000 contains a legal definition for an incapacitated person.

The Not So Good News – When powers of attorney have not been signed previously, a family member may need to petition for Guardianship and Conservatorship of an incapacitated person and his or her estate.

Sadly, families often realize that missed planning opportunities did exist before someone’s incapacity became an issue.

PLAN WHILE YOU CAN Estate planning for special needs is something everyone should consider. Those who enjoy good health today may become disabled in the future; hence, the importance of powers of attorney. Those who have loved ones with special needs can establish supplemental trusts with special provisions designed to meet their needs. We all should be mindful to plan while we can!

St. Anne’s Offers Hybrid Education Plan Bringing Classroom Instruction to Homeschoolers

by Kathleen Katz

Homeschooled students will have more options at St. Anne’s Academy for Girls beginning September 2013. Students will have a choice of registering for core classes in the morning or language, music and sports programs (such as swimming, golf and equestrian) in the afternoon. Homeschool students may also participate in St. Anne’s Academy hybrid program for one or more of the core curriculum classes.

Homeschooled students may also join St. Anne’s students on field trips.

“We strongly support homeschooling families,” said Kathleen Katz, head of St. Anne’s Academy for Girls.

“We work closely with homeschooling families to meet educational needs for their daughters. Homeschoolers may register for one or a half dozen classes. The more classes taken, the lower the cost per class.

Homeschooled students who register for classes at St. Anne’s are required to wear the school uniform to class and the school polos to golf and equestrian lessons.

Sports are a big draw for homeschooling students.

Many participate in homeschool leagues, however some participate in private school sports programs. Courses offered at St. Anne’s Academy include swimming, tennis, golf and riding. Homeschooled students may also register for St. Anne’s Health and Fitness / Track class.

In September 2013, St. Anne’s Academy for Girls will offer a choice between a full classroom teaching experience and a hybrid educational format. The hybrid St. Anne’s swim class is every Monday. Swimming is one of several sports programs homeschoolers may register.

format is an innovative way to combine traditional classroom instruction and structured online home learning. It is used in private schools nationwide, and public schools in Hawaii, California, New York, and Florida have introduced similar education programs.

Hybrid learning, a state-of the art instructional method, will allow students to attend classes several mornings a week at St. Anne’s Academy; on alternate days they will access their online classes from their homes, using an educational site tailored by St. Anne’s teachers. The respective grade software will provide links to reading assignments, class discussion threads, online quizzes, and interactive learning sites, as well as providing dropboxes for submitting essays and other homework assignments. Students will also participate in real-time, online, face-to-face sessions with other pupils and their teachers.

Teachers will be able to track student learning time at home, and by monitoring time logs of online presence will know whether students have viewed PowerPoint and video clip presentations. Instructors will be able to limit the time students have to complete a quizzes, ensuring that students prepare themselves before accessing tests materials. Teachers will supervise and guide all online discussions.

Molly Tremblay, coordinator of St. Anne’s hybrid program, offers these thoughts: “Teachers will be able to integrate innovative and engaging instructional methods to maximize learning. Our students will gain access to a host of web resources, including online links, e-books, interactive websites and collaborative projects, working with students at selected schools throughout

the country via their teachers’ websites,” She added, “We anticipate that students will enjoy learning more, and as a result will become more engaged in the lesson activities. Students also become more responsible for completing assignments and as active learners typically are able to retain more of what they learn.”

Katz said that the program is also “a blessing to parents who want to homeschool their children may feel overwhelmed if they are not prepared to teach all the courses their children need.” She added, “A hybrid program can relieve them of many anxieties and by offering a well organized academic and social experience, the school can involve parents in their children’s education.” However, parents will entrust the educational practice to professional educators.

Kathleen Katz, head of St. Anne’s Academy, has taught hybrid college courses at both undergraduate and graduate levels and has taken hybrid classes herself.

“Many studies have shown this to be a superior learning format. The primary reason for its success is that students become more responsible for their learning.

Gaining proficiency as independent learners enhances the entire educational experience. As students become more engaged, they learn more.”

One key to the success of hybrid education is its lack of time restrictions. Students can accomplish their work in as many or as few hours as needed. Online class discussions allow students to read and reread articles or chapters being discussed, and then to reflect on the issues they present before offering their opinions.

Homeschoolers will have the option of signing up for a full day of classes in a hybrid format or registering for only a few targeted subjects. Mrs. Katz notes that students taking hybrid classes may learn far more than those in traditional settings: “Students work in an optimal learning environment when they are able to combine face-to-face instruction with independent learning at home.

ST. ANNE’S AFTERNOON PROGRAMS St. Anne’s offers afternoon language classes, as well as an equestrian, golf, track and swimming program.

Homeschoolers are welcome to sign up for these nonacademic classes, either independently of enrolling in core courses, or in addition to them.

SAT PREP AT ST. ANNE’S St. Anne’s Academy offers all high school students, including homeschoolers, public and private school students, nine-week Scholastic Aptitude Test prep tutoring sessions. Dr. Carolann Cirbee, a former college dean and English professor, teaches the verbal portion of the SAT prep classes, and Mrs. Denise Robey, St. Anne’s upper level math teacher and an adjunct college professor, teaches the SAT math prep course.

Instructors meet with a maximum of five students in small group settings, and teach girls separately from boys.

The cost for nine sessions (either math or verbal prep) is a fraction of the cost of most individual SAT prep programs. Students are encouraged to enroll for both math and verbal prep sessions, which can run concurrently or sequentially. Interested parents may phone the school office at 703-753-1102 to learn the schedule for the next session of SAT prep classes.

As Dr. Cirbee notes: “All high school students can benefit from college entrance exam tutoring. Learning test taking strategies and rehearsing a comprehensive review of the math and writing skills, critical reading techniques, and vocabulary enhancement exercises that will smooth the students’ way on test day brings college hopefuls closer to their targeted scores and relieves a lot of pressure.”

Fauquier Health Newborns Can Stay Close to Home with Nursery’s New Designation New parents who deliver at Fauquier Hospital in 2013 have something new to celebrate. In late December, Fauquier Hospital was approved as an intermediate care nursery by Virginia’s Department of Health. The designation means that Fauquier Hospital’s Family Birthing Center is able to provide a higher level of care for babies who are born prematurely or with health issues.

It also means that instead of sending ill newborns to another facility, far away from their families, babies can often remain at Fauquier Hospital and receive the care they need.

With the nursery’s medical director, four neonatal nurse practitioners (who have a total of 55 years of experience) together provide 24/7 oversight for any newborns requiring special care.

Additional bedside nurses provide the minute-to-minute care and monitoring.

Neonatal nurse practitioner Helena Brady said, “The monitoring is so important. We have the state-of-the-art technology to register babies’ cardiac and respiratory health. And our nurses, because they are responsible for only one to three babies at a time, are able to notice even the most subtle changes immediately. Our nurses, I would say, catch 95 percent of medical issues first.”

Fauquier Hospital has a cooperative arrangement with the University of Virginia Medical Center, which operates a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. UVA physicians are consulted in any cases involving premature newborns or those with any kind of medical issues. Instead of automatically being transferred to UVA, many babies are cleared to stay at Fauquier, under the watchful eyes of the unit’s medical director, pediatrician Maria Juanpere, MD, the NPs, and the bedside nurses.

A healthy baby born at 35 weeks, for instance, may be able to stay in Fauquier’s nursery for an extra week to gain some weight, rather than having 18

Babies who require a little extra TLC before heading home with mom and dad can be cared for at Fauquier Hospital’s intermediate care nursery.

to travel to UVA. Other issues that can keep a newborn in the nursery include respiratory issues or an infection acquired during pregnancy.

Fauquier Hospital expanded its relationship with UVA as preparations were being made to go from a general nursery to an intermediate nursery. Dr. Juanpere said, “The physicians at UVA have always been a great resource for our unit, and have been very supportive of our growth.”

OB/GYN Thomas Myers, MD, says he is delighted with the new designation and what it means for his patients.

Dr. Thomas Myers, OB/GYN

“Take the example of a mother whose newborn needs to stay in the hospital for a few extra days. If she’s got three other kids at home, she can be at Fauquier Hospital in the morning, leave to get her other kids off the school bus, and come back later. If, on the other hand, the baby is sent to another hospital somewhere in Northern Virginia, she has to travel in traffic at 7 a.m. and not be there for her other kids.

This is great for the siblings too. It’s not as scary for them if they can come and see the new baby. We are glad to be able to keep families together.”

Dr. Maria Juanpere, pediatrician, and medical director of the Fauquier Hospital Family Birthing Center nursery.

History

The vanished village of Hickory Grove

Crossroads north of Haymarket once boasted stores, a mill and school

by John T. Toler

For many of the drivers who pass through the intersection of Old Carolina Road (U.S. 15) and Logmill Road north of Haymarket, the traffic light is an irritation, not a chance to savor some local history.

Indeed, many of the residents living nearby, or down the road in Haymarket, don’t know that a busy community known as Hickory Grove – with stores, a school, a mill and several homes – once occupied the area along Logmill Road on both sides of Old Carolina Road (before it was relocated slightly to the west as U.S. 15).

Although no highway sign indicates that Hickory Grove was ever there, it still exists in history books, and in the memories of long-time residents.

Like most of the land around Haymarket, what became Hickory Grove was originally part of Robert “King” Carter’s huge Bull Run Tract. The name of the village came from the nearby c. 1830 Hickory Grove Plantation, later known as Hundred Oaks.

There were other farms and plantations in the area as well.

On the west side of Old Carolina Road toward the Bull Run Mountains were the Ewell properties – Edge Hill and Dunblane (built in the 1830s) – while on the east side were Prospect Hill (late 1700s), Egypt (c 1800), and Ellen Veil, also known as the Polend Place (mid-1800s).

Commercial activity at Hickory Grove It wasn’t until after the Civil War that commercial development came to the crossroads. Among the first was Thomas A. Taylor’s store, which later added a drug store before becoming the Hickory Grove Post Office in 1875.

After it was sold in 1937, the Hickory Grove School was remodeled into a residence, as shown in this 1978 photo. Courtesy of RELIC. 20

Subsequent owner/operators of the store were W. Ross Tulloss and Thomas Galleher, who ran it from the mid-1890s until 1920. The Hickory Grove Post Office – along with the post offices at Catharpin and Woolsey (at the intersection of present-day U.S. 15 and Sudley Road) – were closed in 1911, when Rural Free Delivery was established at Haymarket.

Also in the earlier days, there was saddlery in the village run

by Jerome Davis.

West of the village on Mountain Road, W. T. “Rattlesnake” Gossom (1867-1957) built a store and gristmill, which he operated for several years, starting in the 1880s.

According to a Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission (VHLC) survey done in the mid-1970s, the store was a twostory building with a shed roof addition on the north side and a one-story enclosed porch on the east side. The second floor was used as a residence. At one time, the exterior was painted yellow with green trim, and the interior walls were whitewashed.

Rattlesnake Gossom’s gristmill was also a two-story frame structure, with board-and-batten exterior walls painted red.

Inside were grain bins and a shaft from the milling floor to the second floor.

“Little money changed hands there, for the store was primarily a trading operation,” according to the VHLC survey. “Twenty dollars on a busy day before Christmas was considered to have been a very good day’s cash receipts.”

By any measure, the Gossoms have been serious storekeepers.

Rattlesnake’s brother, George “Allie” Gossom, owned and operated the store in Waterfall for many years, and hickory grove continued on page 22 Haymarket Lifestyle

Louis “Lukie” took over the businesses. “George and Jimmy left for Haymarket in the 1930s. Henry left for greener pastures… and Lukie went to war and was awarded a Purple Heart in 1942,” according to Mr. Scheel.

Willie Gossom’s store in Hickory Grove was closed by the late1940s, but James and George stayed in Haymarket, operating their grocery and hardware stores into the 21st century.

Rattlesnake’s son William R. “Willie” Gossom (1890-1959) worked for his father until he left to run a store at Woolsey about 1916. Willie moved again when he bought the store in Hickory Grove in 1920.

To this enterprise, Willie added a gasoline-powered gristmill and a cheese factory. “Elmer Thomas, Wilmer Brawner and others ran the cheese factory. Its specialty was longhorn cheese in 30-lb. ‘daisy wheels,’” wrote historian Eugene M. Scheel in Crossroads and Corners: A Tour of the Villages, Towns and Post Offices of Prince William County, Virginia. (1996).

The Hickory Grove store was described in a Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission survey as being “1½ stories with a gable roof, with a one-story grist mill with a shed roof.” It was further described as having a porch across the front, a concrete floor, and clapboard siding on the exterior walls. Inside were long counters on the north and south walls.

The gristmill next to the store had a wooden floor and unfinished walls. Wooden bins or hoppers were located along the north wall, and the gasoline-powered corn mill, manufactured in North Wilkesboro, N.C., sat on the floor.

Eventually, Willie Gossom’s sons George Henry, Jimmy, and

In 1877, Hickory Grove got a public school, when “… the Gainesville District School Board secured the deed to a small building on the farm of T.E. Galleher, hired R. D. Gilliam as the teacher and opened what was at first called the Oak Grove School,” according to Lucy Walsh Finney in Yesterday’s Schools. Among the students to attend the school its early years was George G. Tyler, who later returned to teach in 1898 (See Haymarket Lifestyle, March 2012).

The original building was rebuilt and enlarged in 1887 by E.C. Taylor. In 1896, it was determined that the original structure was unsafe, and it was torn down. The addition was kept, and became the “new” Hickory Grove School.

The school had grades 1 through 9, with an average enrollment of 25-32 students aged six to 14 years. Students in the elementary grades sat at tables and chairs, while those in the intermediate grades used double desks. After completing ninth grade, students attended Haymarket High School.

Hickory Grove School was served by outdoor privies, and there was no running water. Until a pump was installed in the early 1920s, one of the chores assigned to the boys was going down to the Hickory Grove store to get drinking water.

A wood-burning stove heated the building; the teacher started the fire each cold morning, but students were responsible for keeping the wood box full. Because the soil beside the school was too rough and rocky to be used as a playground, a lot near the school was used for recess.

By the 1933-34 school year, Hickory Grove was one of the oldest county schools still in use. The school library was down to 85 volumes (including two sets of encyclopedias), and the hickory grove continued on page 24

‘Rattlesnake’ Gossom, mountaineer merchant A few years ago, the late Milton “Dick” Gossom put together an informal family history, including the generation of his grandfather, William Thomas Gossom (1867-1957), aka “Rattlesnake,” and those who followed.

Rattlesnake was the first of eight children born to John C. “Bing” Gossom (1838-1899) and Mary Frances Gossom, who came from Dumfries about 1870 to live at “LaGrange.”

Rattlesnake was first married to Elizabeth Boley Gossom (1858-1932).

“I remember my grandfather as a tall man, well built and strong … his clothing was mussed and soiled, his words blunt and few,” wrote Dick Gossom. “He was called ‘Rattlesnake’ because of his fiendish obsession with catching and keeping rattlesnakes at his store in the Bull Run Mountains.

There was no electricity, no telephone, television or radio, but there was the telling of stories, and everyone had a rattlesnake story.”

As a business that relied on bartering with its customers, Rattlesnake’s store never made much money. “His cigarbox register receipts from a ten-hour day at the mountain store amounted to only a few dollars,” wrote Dick Gossom. This may also have been because he was frugal to a fault, and stuck in his ways.

“Rattlesnake discovered undigested goodies intact in his animal manure, so he fed corn on the cob to his horses, horse manure to his pigs, and pig manure to his chickens,” wrote Dick Gossom. “His were the only chickens

to voluntarily place their heads on the on the chopping block.”

One evening, Rattlesnake failed to come home from work. Elizabeth walked to the store to find him sifting through the hot ashes from the stove, trying to find a penny that had been accidentally dropped in the stove earlier that day.

He exhibited other unique characteristics.

“Rattlesnake often rode a bull instead of a horse, especially on short crosscountry trips,” recalled Dick Gossom.

“The mountain farmers shared labor during their main harvest, and it was not unusual to see Rattlesnake careening along the twisting Mountain Road on his bull, the reins in one hand and a pitchfork or scythe in the other.”

He could also throw rocks with his feet.

“His rationale was that the rock was on the ground, as were his feet, so why bend over?” wrote Dick Gossom. “He could also bark exactly like a hound dog.” But some of his peculiarities caused conflicts with his family.

Rattlesnake’s son William R. “Willie” Gossom (1890-1959) worked hard at the family’s store and sawmill. When he brought his new bride, the former Minnie Mae Sinclair (1890-1986), to his father’s house after their wedding in 1913, Willie hoped that Rattlesnake would make a good impression.

“However, early on the first morning, Rattlesnake greeted the bride in a loud authoritarian voice, telling her to wash her wedding clothes and get ready for work,” wrote Dick Gossom.

“My mother (Minnie) told me it was loathing at first sight, and it wasn’t long before she talked Willie into moving from the house to the large loft above the store he operated for his father.” Willie and Minnie later had their own home on Waterfall Road.

Back on Mountain Road, Rattlesnake continued to operate his store.

Elizabeth died in 1932, and he later married Blanch Downs, the “Belle of Woolsey.”

“On his wedding day, Rattlesnake dropped by his brother George “Allie” Gossom’s store in Waterfall to borrow

a belt to hold up his pants. All he had was twine,” wrote Dick Gossom.

“What the bride wore, we don’t know,” Rattlesnake’s store closed in 1938. By then he was in his 70s. and in poor health. Son Willie’s store in Hickory Grove lasted a few years longer, closing in 1949. The building was later moved across the road and converted to a tenant house.

Last surveyed in the 1970s, the buildings that once housed the Gossoms’ commercial enterprises on Mountain Road and in Hickory Grove were still standing, but in poor condition. Today, nothing remains but the memories.

lighting was woefully inadequate. The School Board voted to close Hickory Grove at the end of the 1935-36 session, and send the students to the new elementary school in Gainesville.

The school at Catharpin was closed at the same time.

The Hickory Grove School and its half-acre lot were sold at public auction on Aug. 4, 1937 to Todd Rhodes, for the winning bid of $300. Mr. Rhodes converted the building to a private residence, which has changed hands and been remodeled several times over the years. According to Prince William County records, the current owner is S. L. Martin.

“While its exterior appearance has been substantially altered by the addition of stone veneer, (the old schoolhouse) retains some feeling of its former school use,” according to a Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission survey written in the mid1970s. “ The interior ceiling height has not been changed, and the floors are original and well preserved.”

Bull Run Chapel In 1899, the 8th Virginia Regiment Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy was formed to memorialize the soldiers who served in Haymarket’s 8th Virginia Infantry (the Evergreen Guards). The first president of the chapter was Lucy Fontaine Berkely, daughter of Col. Edmund Berkeley, CSA, who organized and led the 8th Virginia throughout the Civil War. In 1914, the chapter started work on a memorial chapel at Hickory Grove. Among those involved were Alice Maude Ewell, chapter historian; Mildred and Jenny Ewell, and Mary T. Hutchison. In later years, Mrs. Pauline Padgett served as one of the trustees.

The chapel was located on a .23-acre lot purchased from T.R. Galleher for $25; it was completed for expenditures totaling $640. The building is described in a 1970s VHLC survey as a “ one-story frame, five-bay structure with a pressed-tin gable

roof.” The exterior walls consist of channeled siding, which at the time of the survey were painted white with green trim. A gable-roof front porch with brick pillars was added in 1917.

Inside, the chapel has a high cathedral ceiling and walls covered with tongue-and-groove boards in vertical and herringbone patterns. At the rear of the building is a platform rising two feet from the floor, and a brick stove chimney is located on the center of the west wall.

The chapel was used for the monthly meetings of the UDC chapter, as well as special events and exhibits that were open to the public. In 1930, the chapter took on another project, the erection of a memorial tablet honoring Confederate soldiers buried in the cemetery of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Haymarket Miss Ewell wrote that even though the chapter had no money to spare, they raised the needed funds by crocheting and knitting items, making rugs, workbags and other items, which they sold.

Sadly, by 1964, only eight members of the chapter were still alive. The chapel fell into disuse, and according to the VHLC survey, furnishings remaining in the building consisted of “… several dozen folding chairs, piano and bookshelves. Pictures, museum exhibits and window plaques (as well as the stove) were stolen in 1964 or later.”

An effort was made to reorganize the chapter and re-occupy the chapel, but it did not succeed. The building still stands, but in poor condition. According to Prince William County records, A. B. Knop, of Malvern, Pa, currently owns the property.

Hickory Grove did not survive as a commercial entity, but the people who once lived there were closely involved with the growth of Haymarket, and their contributions cannot be overlooked.

Any woman who moves goes through a grieving process and some of the most difficult hurdles in moving are leaving behind friends and family, losing familiar surroundings, and feeling a great sense of loss. Women go through not only the stages of loss, but also of disbelief, grief, and anger before they recover.

Whether you are new to the community or just haven’t had the opportunity to connect with like minded women this study is for you. This study gives women the opportunity to address their emotional struggles and opportunities for growth.

Not only does the study prepare, 26

encourage and equip women for the emotional and spiritual strain of such a major life change, it provides a wonderful way for women to make the friends and community connections they long for.

Topics covered during this 16 week study include looking at what is left behind, what is cherished, your views on the importance of people knowing your name and the nitty-gritty of getting settled. The facilitators, Sarah, Patty and Tara, have firsthand experience dealing with the issues being discussed.

Susan Miller writes “For many couples, their major goal in moving is to stay married”. For singles, the need is to maintain their sanity-and to find that “special friend” with a truck! As someone who has packed way too many haul-it-yourself trucks in her time, I know that moving can rank right up there on the “fun things to experience” list with wallpapering, root canals, pet-sitting a pit bull, and having you 12-month-old triplets all start to teethe at the same time.

The complete list of studies being offered: “After the Boxes are Unpacked, Moving on After Moving In”, Wednesday Evening, Sarah Emerson, Facilitator & Thursday Morning, Patty Knill and Tara McGaugh, Facilitators “Here and Now, There and Then” by Beth Moore (Thursday morning) “The Power of a Praying Wife” by

Stormic Omartian (Thursday Morning) “What Happens when Women say Yes to God-Experiencing Life in Extraordinary Ways by Lysa Terkeurst (Thursday morning) “21 Ways to Finding Peace and Happiness” by Joyce Meyer (Thursday morning) “Unglued: Making Wise Choices in the midst of Raw Emotions” by Lysa Terkeurst. (Wednesday Evening) “Twelve Women of the Bible” by Lysa Terkeurst (Wednesday Evening) Classes are for 6 to 16 weeks (depending on the study). Classes start on Wednesday, January 16th at 6:30 p.m. and Thursday, January 17th at 9:30 a.m.. There is a minimal fee for the books ($9 to $16 depending on the Study; childcare is available at an additional cost. Late registration is possible. Registration and Information on the classes is on the Park Valley Church website www. parkvalleychurch.com or by contacting Veronica Hensley (571)261-2136.

Prevention

Flu-Busters for Your Home Flu season got off to an early start in Prince William County this year (in fact the earliest it’s been in a decade), and health officials are warning that it could be a harsh, long and feverish season.

While getting a flu vaccination is always recommended, there’s no guarantee that it will be fully effective, or that it will work against the type of flu virus to which you are exposed. One of the best ways to protect against flu is to limit your exposure. That includes disinfecting surfaces including door handles, phones and keyboards that might have come in contact with the virus.

Here are some tips on ways to safeguard your family and your home from the flu.

• Antibacterial vs. Disinfectant First things first, antibacterial cleaners do not kill germs. To be labeled antibacterial, a product must suppress bacteria only.

It doesn’t have to do anything about viruses or fungi. For that, you need a disinfectant, which must kill 99.9999 percent of all microorganisms.

• Don’t Just Spray and Wipe Whether you’re using an antibacterial or disinfectant solution, it doesn’t always kill germs on contact. Many products have to be left on a surface for up to ten minutes to work effectively.

• The Vinegar Solution? White vinegar is a cheap, safe and effective way to kill some bacteria, mold and germs, but not everything. For example, it’s been proven to kill salmonella and e.coli, but it won’t touch flu. For that, the most effective sanitizer is bleach. Be sure to dilute it and use it in a wellventilated room. You can also use iodine-based antiseptics or rubbing alcohol.

• Life of Vi(rus) The CDC reports that a flu virus can infect a person for two to eight hours after it touches a surface. The only way to avoid contracting these germs is to sanitize every surface that someone with the flu touches or breathes upon.

• Laundry Quandary After someone in your household has been sick you definitely should wash their towels and bed linens immediately. You don’t necessarily need to separate these items from the rest of your laundry, but do avoid transporting them by hand or by holding them close to your body (use a basket), and wash your hands immediately after you’ve put them in the washing machine.

Sweet Treats for 2/14

by Leigh Giza

It’s February, and that means Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. If you’re looking for something special to do to celebrate the occasion, there are lots of great options to choose from in Haymarket as well as in nearby Gainesville and Manassas. Here are a few places you might want to consider trying that are close to home and won’t break the bank.

• You don’t need to drive all the way to Georgetown Cupcakes in Washington, DC to find delicious cupcakes for Valentine’s Day. Sweets for your sweetheart can be gotten at Cupcake Heaven, located on Washington Street between Old Carolina Rd. and Route 15 in downtown Haymarket.

The café makes a baker’s dozen of cupcake flavors, and the red velvet cupcake would make a perfect treat for Valentine’s Day. Buy two -- one for someone you love, and one for yourself – and indulge your taste for the decadent in a small enough portion that you won’t have to worry about overindulging.

• Do you have a special friend you’d like to celebrate Valentine’s Day with? You could meet for cappuccino and conversation at Deja Brew Coffee House, located in Merchants View Square Shopping Center on Dominion Valley Drive. This cleverly-named café serves coffees, teas, and smoothies, as well as breakfast and lunch items.

While you’re there you can enjoy photographs and paintings by local artists that decorate the café walls and browse a small collection of music CDs for sale featuring music by local and regional musicians. To find out if there’s a special Valentine’s Day menu or entertainment, check their web site at www.dejabrewcoffeehouse.com.

30

• If you’d enjoy doing something outdoors on Valentine’s Day, grab your partner and head over to the Harris Pavilion in Old Town Manassas for an evening of outdoor ice skating.

Skates are available for rental at the pavilion, and there is a fee to skate as well. For more information you can call the Pavilion at 703-361-9800.

• Add a little harmony to your loved one’s Valentine’s Day by sending him or her a singing valentine. For fifty dollars, the Bull Run Troubadours will send a barbershop quartet to serenade your special someone with two songs. They’ll also give him or her a keepsake photo of the event, a silk rose, and a Valentine’s Day card. A portion of the fifty dollar fee for the singing Valentine will go to a Prince William County charity.

• If French really is the language of love, then you might want to have Valentine’s dinner at Mimi’s Café in Gainesville.

The restaurant has the warm ambiance of a French bistro, and the menu features French items like crepes and quiche as well as salads and pastas. If you’re not counting your carbs, you’ll definitely want to try their signature bread basket. Mimi’s Café is located at 5005 Wellington Road in Gainesville, near the intersection of Wellington and Linton Hall roads.

• You can rub your wife the right way by giving her a gift certificate for a massage at Massage Envy in Gainesville.

According to employee Paige Knowlton, the hot stone massage is a popular choice among customers. This ninetyminute massage combines massage with the placement of hot stones on the body to help release stress and tension.

If you’d like to get a massage for yourself while your wife enjoys one, you can ask about a couples massage, but be aware that you’ll be in separate rooms during the massage process. However, if you go to the Massage Envy location in Manassas, you can both get a massage in the same room and share the relaxing experience. Massage Envy in Gainesville is located at 5123 Wellington Road, across from BJ’s and next to Buffalo Wild Wings. The Manassas spa is located at 10073 Market Circle. For more information about Massage Envy, check out their website at wwwmassageenvy.com.

• Surprise your spouse with a bottle of wine from LaGrange Winery, located at 4970 Antioch Road in Haymarket. The winery is located on 22 acres of serene farmland located at the foot of Bull Run Mountain. You can taste and buy wines that are made from grapes grown at the winery and at other Virginia vineyards from which LaGrange leases land. The winery will celebrate Valentine’s Day for two weeks starting February 1. During the “14 Days of Wine Love,” the winery will feature daily special offers for its customers, from gift baskets to tasting packages.

• If you’d like to get away from it all without having to travel very far, you might consider making a reservation to stay at one of the bed and breakfasts in the area. The Manassas Junction Bed and Breakfast in old town Manassas is in a historic home located at the intersection of Prescott Avenue and Center Street. There are two rooms, both decorated in period style with four-poster beds and private baths.

Organic breakfast is served to guests in the morning and features items grown in the garden on the inn’s grounds.

The train station is adjacent to the inn, so you can watch locomotives come and go as you enjoy your meal. Another bed and breakfast in Manassas to consider staying at is the Bennett House, which is located at 9252 Bennett Drive. The Bennett House was built at the turn of the twentieth century and features two rooms with antiques and reproduction furniture, The restaurants and shops of old town Manassas are within walking distance of the inn.

• Finally, if you’re looking for a place to buy your valentine a one-of-a-kind gift to let him or her know how special they are to you, Grace Jewelers at 7551 Somerset Crossing Drive in Gainesville can custom design a piece of jewelry.

The store also carries a variety of rings, earrings, bracelets, gemstones, and watches for sale.

However you choose to celebrate, we hope you have a very happy Valentine’s Day!

A Father’s Dream Turned Restaurant Phở Hà Linh Vietnamese Noodles and Grill

Owning a restaurant was just a dream to Trung “Ton” Ly, a family man and father of two daughters. He got his start in the kitchen at home, whipping up creative dinners for the family and soon began catering small events for friends. With the confidence in his dishes and the support of his family, Ly pursued his dream to open his own restaurant. Named after his two daughters, Phở Hà Linh

is an authentic Vietnamese restaurant right in Gainesville.

Ly encourages guests to come in with an open mind and an empty stomach. Their culture traditionally prepares healthy dishes rich in meats and fresh vegetables; they have an assortment of gluten free, vegetarian, spicy and non-spicy meals. Come in and browse their expansive menu, ask questions to the friendly staff, challenge yourself to

order a dish in Vietnamese and enjoy the food and atmosphere.

Start your meal by sharing an appetizer. The Spring Rolls are large and stuffed with poached shrimp, sliced chicken, lettuce, cilantro, and vermicelli noodles wrapped in a soft rice paper and served with peanut sauce.

Their traditional Egg Rolls are always a hit with guests, crispy fried rolls filled with ground chicken, taro, carrots and silver noodles. Or a special this month is their Chicken Wings, large meaty wings dressed Vietnamese style.

Their Phở, a savory soup with chicken or beef, rice and noodles is an experience.

A steamy broth is filled with fresh vegetables and meats; accompanied by a side of fresh bean sprouts, basil, jalapeno peppers, and lime.

These additional ingredients are used to personalize the Pho to your liking – add a little or add a lot. There are plenty of combinations to try, as this restaurant serves seventeen varieties on the menu. The house Pho, called Phở Hà Linh is a customer favorite with slices of round eye steak, well done steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, and beef meatballs. The Phở Gà has rice noodles topped with slices of chicken breast in a chicken broth. Shrimp, calamari and fish cakes make the Phở Ðồ Biển.

32

Their Cơm Tấm, steamed jasmine broken rice dishes are delightful. Cơm Tấm Ðặc Biệt is a full plate with a grilled pork chop, shredded pork, fried egg, and a meat pie served with broken rice and a side of nước mắm. The vermicelli rice noodle dishes called Bún, are topped with scallions, cilantro and a pickled carrot and dikon radish. Try the Bún Thịt Nứơng Chả Giò, grilled thinly sliced pork and egg rolls over vermicelli noodles with lettuce, bean sports, and peanuts. The Bò Lúc Lắc (Shaken Beef) is juicy and flavorful; it’s a stir fry dish with seared cubed beef tenderloin served over a bed of lettuce, onion, and tomato tossed in a vinaigrette. The menu also features fried rice, egg and rice noodle soup, stir fry noodles, salads, kids menu, and desserts.

Phở Hà Linh: Vietnamese Noodles and Grill is located at 7535 Somerset Crossing Drive in the Somerset Crossing Shopping Center near Bonefish and Glory Days.

They are open seven days a week: Monday through Friday 11:30am to 9pm, Saturday 11am to 9pm and Sunday 11:30am to 8pm. Lunch specials are offered Monday through Friday and include a filling entrée, a roll and a tea; it is available for pick up. For more information please give them a call at (571) 445-3492, visit their website at www. phohalinh.com or like them on Facebook to see their latest specials and features.

“Like espresso with milk, with hints of vanilla and cocoa (as opposed to chocolate per se). Nope, not a chocolate beer, and not a throat-scorching imperial stout.” - Beer Samizdat “Coffeehouse stout pours the usual pitch black color youíre going to get from a stout. The smell is pretty strong in coffee up front. But underneath lies a certain sweetness. A nice amount of cream. Taste is pretty much more of the same. Up front is a good amount of roasted malt and coffee. As the coffee wears off the sweetness comes through. Nice cream and chocolate. “ - The Drunken Polak
