Three tips for preventing injury in the yard, garden

BY GABRIELA MURZA

USU Extension assistant professor, health and wellness

Whether you’re a weekend gardener or spend time in the dirt daily, you have probably experienced working too hard and feeling sore. Soreness can stem from exerting a new or weak muscle, and it subsides after a few days. But pain that lingers can occur from overworking or doing something incorrectly. These types

Mt. Pleasant Pioneer Relic Home looks to next generation

BY GLORIA ALBRECHT

The Pyramid

The Pioneer Relic Home in Mt. Pleasant was once the home of William Seely, a prominent citizen, Bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, first mayor of Mt. Pleasant, and leader in Sanpete County.

In this, one of the first homes to be built outside of the Mt. Pleasant Fort, William Seely resided with his wife, Charlotte, and their

nine children. It also has been reported that the final treaty that ended the Black Hawk War between the Ute Indians and the Mormon settlers was signed Saturday, September 7, 1872 at the entrance of the home. Around 1950 the Mt. Pleasant Historical Association acquired the home for use as a museum.

The Pioneer Relic Home museum was moved to its current location at 150 S. State St., Mt. Pleasant, and here numerous histo-

ries and genealogies of the original pioneers as well their descendants are documented.

Over the years a wealth of information contained in the Relic Home was assembled by Co-Director Tudy Standlee. She has compiled a history of Mt. Pleasant’s historic homes and their ownership since the beginning of Mt. Pleasant in 1859.

Chevrolet hits it out of the park with the new Silverado

I CRAIG & DEANNE CONOVER

t is not very often that we get into a new vehicle and are completely taken aback by the interior. After testing new cars week after week for the past 12 years, it takes a lot from a manufacturer to really move us.

That being said, climbing inside the new Chevrolet Silverado for the first time really took our breath away!

The new interior design of the Silverado is the best thing to come from Chevrolet since the new Corvette a couple of years ago. It was engaging, technically advanced and a perfect fit for this new truck.

On the Chevy press site, they Please see SILVERADO, Page A2

Expert From A1

A conversation on Highway 89

A

couple of weeks ago, I was on a late-night walk with Archer.

Archer is the dog who boards with us. He’s a Sheltie (officially, a Shetland sheepdog). He’s a likable sort and is good company. We don’t have too many disagreements.

You may be interested to know that I’ve been teaching Archer arithmetic. He’s been doing quite well with it.

Usually when I’m showing off his skills to people it goes like this: “Archer, what is 2 minus 2?” Archer looks at me, cocks his head; and then says nothing. I respond with “Correct!”

Impressive, eh?

We were in Manti, Sanpete’s county seat, on our walk. It was a warm summer night. We sat down on the front steps of the county courthouse and relaxed for a while. From our elevated perch, we watched “the world” go by.

There was very little foot traffic. A few kids were out and there was another dog-walker. The Top Stop convenience store, not far away, is open 24 hours a day, so there was a little business going on there.

Every once in a while, a car or truck would go by.

It was quite infrequent, so it was easy to play the “guess the color of the next car game” with Archer. Weirdly, he kept giving random guesses of black, white and gray. I was guessing all the colors of the rainbow, and he was winning with his dumb doggie guesses.

When a car came by, headed south, which looked like it was packed for a vacation, Archer looked up at me and posed a question. What I heard was, “Where do you think they’re going?”

This question made me think a little. I was suddenly reminded that the road we were looking at is U.S. Route 89. I know that 89 is not as storied and famous as Route 66, but it is a wonderful ribbon of highway that accesses

many terrific places.

After thinking a moment, my answer to Archer was, “I bet they’re on their way to Bryce Canyon.

Maybe they’re going as far as Richfield tonight.” His look to me told me that he agreed with my logic.

I researched on Wikipedia while we sat there and found out more information about our own famous road that runs through Sanpete. As it is now, the southern section of the highway runs 848 miles from Flagstaff, Arizona to the southern entrance of Yellowstone National Park.

The northern section runs 404 miles from the northern entrance of Yellowstone in Montana, ending at the Canadian border.

At times, Highway 89 has been called the National Park Highway. It links up seven national parks. Prior to 1992, the highway went all the way from Mexico to Canada.

National Geographic named it the “No 1 Driver’s Drive in the world.”

When Archer and I continued our walk, we ran into an old friend. She was out on her porch with her dog. Her dog ran out and greeted us. We ended up having a chat.

We talked about how great it was in Sanpete that we could run into people on walks and renew acquaintances. I mentioned that when we had visited Italy some years ago that it was very common for large numbers of people to be out and about on walks in the evening. Much of that is done in the public square.

Taking walks up and down the “Main Street” parts of Highway 89 in Sanpete towns could be similar. We would just have to be willing to leave our homes and televisions for a while to take a stroll with our neighbors.

I recommend that you have a visit with your dog if you have one. See what the opinion might be for more walks. Archer votes “Yes!” — Merrill

of injuries can be serious, such as a rotator cuff injury, or they can be a repetitive strain injury (RSI), which occurs in muscles, tendons, and nerves in hands, wrists, shoulders, elbows, knees, and lower back.

These injuries are caused by doing the same movement for an extended period and can lead to pain or weakness.

Consider these tips to prevent injuries and minimize pain while gardening.

1. Adapt the garden. Create a garden that promotes healthy posture, movement, and maintenance. Incorporate raised beds and vertical gardens to avoid hunching over and kneeling. Carefully place stepping stones, pottery, and other gardening hardscapes so you can work around them without twisting, over-reaching, or pulling.

2. Adapt the tools. Use tools that are appropriate for the job and that fit your abilities.

Tools with ergonomic handles and attachments provide a comfortable grip and help keep the wrist straight. Rakes and shovels with height-appropriate handles help you maintain a straight back and avoid hunching over.

3. Adapt yourself. Be prepared, and use safe movements.

Wear comfortable, breath-

Even if it’s cloudy outside, wear sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses if needed.

Drink water before, during, and after gardening. Start out hydrated, drink every 15-20 minutes while gardening, then drink after to replace what you may have lost through sweat.

Keep your tools and other essentials (trash bags, water bottle, cell phone, snacks, etc.) in a bucket or cart nearby while you work.

Work during cooler times of the day, and break tasks into shorter activities. If

possible, avoid gardening for more than 1.5 hours at a time.

Change tasks every 20 minutes to use alternate muscles and intensities (e.g., change from standing to kneeling).

Remember to take breaks to stretch your muscles and hydrate.

Engage your leg muscles rather than your arms and back when lifting, carrying, setting items down, changing directions, and moving back and forth (e.g., raking and shoveling).

When working low to the ground, kneel rather than crouching or squatting, and use a foam mat or knee pads.

Kneel on one knee while keeping the other foot on the ground for support. This helps avoid hunching while keeping your back straight. Alternate legs every few minutes.

Stretch before, during, and after gardening. Gardening is a physical activity, so treat it like any other exercise. Warm up your muscles first, then as you take breaks, stretch the used muscles. At the end, do whole-body stretches.

The more you practice safety in the garden, the more it becomes part of your routine and the less likely you will be to experience soreness and pain.

Silverado From A1

underplay the new dashboard as a fully redesigned, premium interior on the LT trim and above. After experiencing this new look for a week, we are convinced this is the best new interior design for a truck we have ever driven.

There are some huge screens out there now in the truck world, with everyone trying to outdo what Ram did when it incorporated a portrait screen measuring more than 12 inches into the center console. However, this new look for the Silverado is way more refined and subtle, using the dashboard as more of a canvas as it sweeps its way from driver to passenger.

The levers and buttons that turn functions on — things like parking assist, tailgate release and crawl control — are not incorporated into the dash under its huge screen or sticking out as a clunky button as in years past. They are actually used in the dashboard as a design element.

Under these features are the controls for the trailer brakes and HVAC, which can all be controlled manually or through the touchscreen. The designers have also smartly included a smaller home button and volume control to the right of the center buttons to provide the driver with a quick way to get to the home screen or turn down the volume.

Of course, the volume and channel controls are still included on the back of the steering wheel and can also be used by the driver for those functions.

Are there cameras? Why, yes. They are everywhere, including one that can be used in the rearview mirror. Hooking up a trailer was simple when Craig had to pull a fully loaded trailer to an event on the Friday of our test drive week.

Even with 8,800 pounds on the hitch, the new ZR2 had no complaints about pulling the load. The 2-inch factory-installed lift made it even easier to get hooked up to the trailer; it resembled the stance of Craig’s business partner’s 2500 truck.

Interior amenities aside, the new

Also, within the walls of the Relic Home, hundreds of well preserved books, china, textiles, furniture, artifacts and articles of clothing are on display, taking visitors back in time. Family histories, cemetery maps and other historical volumes document the life of the original pioneers and their families.

An ongoing restoration to the Pioneer Relic Home has been possible thanks to

funding from the Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area (MPNHA) and local donors. The restoration project is part of an ongoing process that has spanned at least 10 years. Currently the exterior of the home is fully restored and this summer the two log cabins which are located on the Heritage Home site are getting new chinking.

The Pioneer Relic Home is run by the Mt. Pleasant Pioneer Historical Society which was formed in 1909. That was fifty years after the settle-

ment of Mt. Pleasant. Today the society is hopeful that a new generation of Mt. Pleasants’ pioneer descendants and newcomers to the area alike, will continue the tradition of stewardship, and preserve the history of Mt. Pleasant by volunteering at the Mt. Pleasant Pioneer Relic Home to keep history alive.

The Mt. Pleasant Pioneer Relic Home is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday through Saturday and is located at 150 S. State St., Mt. Pleasant, Utah.

6 ways to accomplish more with less during your workday

1. Stop trying to multitask

oes it seem like your to-do list at work It turns out that multinever ends? You’re not tasking is a myth. That’s alone. An astounding 83% right: What we think of as of workers in the U.S. suffer from work-related stress, often due to heavy workloads.

This can have drastic effects on the physical and mental health of workers and be detrimental to a business’s success.

However, there are strategies you can use to get all your work done — and still stay sane. This doesn’t mean you should cram more tasks into an already overburdened calendar; rather, this is about learning to use time and resources efficiently so you can be productive without getting burned out. Here’s how:

multitasking is just, in reality, switching rapidly from one task to another. Our brains are physically incapable of doing two things simultaneously, and constant

task switching is anything but efficient. In fact, doing so slows us down and makes it difficult to enter a state of flow where the highest level of concentration and
