WHAT’S HAPPENING

Good things come in threes for Licklog Players Exciting things are happening at the Peacock Playhouse in Hayesville, where the Licklog Players are performing the provocative mystery, Ladies in Retirement. Besides the play about three sisters there is also a real family of three who do a yeoman’s job to bring the entire production to life. Edie Kleinpeter and her daughters Karin and Gretchen are all involved. Karin, the set designer and builder, Gretchen, her noble assistant, and Edie, who not only directed the show, but because of unforeseen circumstances had to step in at the last minute to play one of the main roles are fantastic. As a real pro, Edie accomplishes a remarkable feat. She not only had to learn lines but be able to perform on stage at a moment’s notice---and she was great! Other remarkable performances are turned in by the rest of the cast. Comic relief comes from Delilah Davenport and Diana Smith whose portrayal of the slightly peculiar---did I say slightly?---is extremely humorous and believable. The other sister, played by Kathleen Brose, is intense and focused, as her siblings are oblivious of the world. She does a stellar job. Kay Thomas, as Sister Teresa, and Kathleen Dooly, as Lucy, the maid, are also on target all the way. The only male, Karl Snow, works in perfect harmony with “the girls,” and puts in a very credible performance. “The world of illusion” is brought to life by Karin and the crew as they take styrofoam, wall boards, paint, and fantastic imagination to create the beautiful set on which the players perform. The fireplace wall is so realistic you almost believe you can smell smoke emitting from it. Such is the wonderful world of stage illusion. Tina Blackwell did an authentic rendering of the attire of the period. The backstage crew led by stage manager Dulcie Riffle keeps the play moving. I am constantly amazed by the many volunteers who make these shows possible. The play will run November 6-8 with evening performances at 8PM and a Sunday matinee at 2:30. Tickets are $13 for adults and $8 for students. The box office will be open from 9-1 Monday through Friday. You can call for tickets at any time and your call will be returned. Call 828389-8632 or 877-691-9906. Don’t forget to bring a canned good for the Towns and Clay Food Banks.

Coker Creek

Over millennia of time, Native Americans, soldiers, militiamen, colonists, drovers, prospectors, bushwhackers, guerrillas all passed over it. An ancient trading path that predates history, it has been known as the Unicoi Path, the Tellico Path, the Overhill Trading Path, and finally, the Unicoi Turnpike Trail. Today, it is a part of the Millennium Trails program’s American Discovery Trail, the nation’s first coast to coast non-motorized recreation trail. Thanks to the Tennessee Overhill Heritage Association’s website and trail guide, the trail is easily explored by car and by foot. On a beautiful summer day, my husband and I enjoyed exploring some of the historical treasures along the route from Murphy to Vonore, Tennessee. We took the Joe Brown Highway because it most closely follows the original trail. However, after the intersection with the Hiwassee Dam Access Road, at Violet, it becomes a gravel road. Because it is also the route for large power lines, the road is well maintained. But, it may be hazardous in adverse weather, or just after a storm, due to falling tree

branches. In that case, another option is to take US 74 West from Murphy to Ducktown, Tennessee, and turn right onto TN 68, picking up the trail at Coker Creek. We began our day with a stop at the Farmer’s Market on the square in Murphy. Then we headed north on Tennessee Street, which soon becomes the Joe Brown Highway. Passing the turn-off to the popular Hanging Dog Recreational Area, we wound around Lake Hiwassee. At the stop sign at the intersection with the Hiwassee Dam Access Road, we turned right, beginning our ascent up and over the Unicoi Gap, which is the lowest gap in the Southern Appalachian Mountains. This route offers some exceptional views of the surrounding mountains. On the Tennessee side is a parking lot and trailheads for the hiking portion of the Unicoi Trail, and the Benton McKaye Trail, a nearly 300 mile footpath through the southeastern Appalachians. Continuing on, we soon came to Coker Creek, the site of one of the earliest gold rushes in the United States. You can still pan for gold here in the

View from Unicoi Gap streams of the Cherokee National Forest. Gold pans, supplies and maps are available at the Welcome Center. During our visit, we met Mary Jane, who answered our questions and encouraged us to stop and see Bald River Falls when we reached Tellico Plains. Next door, at the family business “Designs by Baerries”, we met Phil, the family head and friendly proprietor, and Pip, the mascot cat. Phil explained that every member of his artistic family contributes his or her specialty to the business, which sells intricate wood carved items such as puzzle boxes, hair combs, and utensils. Daughter Elisabeth makes glass fused and beaded jewelry. Sons Nathan and George contribute paintings, sculpture and music. When we asked for eatery recommendations, Phil strongly suggested that we have our lunch at the Tellico Grains Bakery. All that talk of food made us hungry and our stomachs prodded us to drive on to Tellico Plains, and the Bakery.

Hayesville man publishes memoirs Describes teenage years in Gulag labor camp

What began for a six-year old American boy’s summer visit to his grandparents in East Prussia lasted twelve long years in war-torn Europe, resulting in forced labor in Siberia. This was the experience of longtime Hayesville resident Raymond L. Hohmann, who tells of his extraordinary life’s journey in his newly-released book, A Twist of Fate, now available at the Phillips & Lloyd Book Shop in Hayesville. Hohmann, who recently celebrated his 80th birthday, wrote the book with local author, Helen Naismith, as a memoir for his family and friends. It’s a fascinating life story with many twists and turns. Born in Detroit, MI in 1929 to German immigrants, Hohmann tells of the voyage across the at age six, of being educated in a foreign language in a foreign land, of life with his sickly

grandparents before their deaths, and on his uncle’s farm adjoining the Kudipperwald National Forest in Warkallen. At the end of the war, it was out of this beautiful forest that Russians Storm Troopers emerged and, assuming he was German, marched him to a boxcar for a debilitating train ride to labor camps in Siberia. In his book, Homann recalls on the very first day at camp he was beaten unmercifully for picking up an onion to satisfy his life-threatening hunger. The beating left him partially paralyzed during his following years in captivity. With the help of the German Red Cross and the U.S. State Department, (and because he was unable to work due to his injuries), he was finally released. But the long road to recovery didn’t begin until he reached American See MEMOIRS Page ?A

LIFE & ARTS Reel Memories: #102 - The Long Riders

By: William V. Reynolds Columnist If Jesse James had had a bumper sticker and a bumper to put it on, it probably would have read something like this, “Lee surrendered, I didn’t.” If you are truly a Southerner or have lived in the South for any length of time, you’ve probably seen this sentiment on someone’s automobile. This statement pretty much sums up the attitude of Jesse James and the men who rode with him. The Long Riders (1980) is yet another telling of the Jesse James story. For all intents and purposes the Civil War is over. Lee has surrendered. Reconstruction was about to begin and many of the people in charge are carpetbaggers. The carpetbaggers are determined to make the South pay for its past sins. They become the controllers as the railroads push westward and the banks make huge investments in these enterprises.

g n i r e t Ca

The James brothers (portrayed by James and Stacy Keach) are joined by the Younger brothers, Cole, Jim, and Bob (portrayed by David, Keith, and Robert Carradine), Bob and Charlie Ford (portrayed by Nicholas and Christopher Guest), Ed and Clell Miller (portrayed by Dennis and Randy Quaid). In a sentence, brothers portraying brothers, one of the unique qualities of the film. Jesse James (Stacy Keach) who would later be known for his role as private detective Mike Hammer, emerges as the leader of the gang. He proposes that they should concentrate on robbing trains and banks in order to extract revenge against the Yankee carpetbaggers. Between the years 1865 and 1881 the James Gang was responsible for a number of such depredations. The film spends a good deal of time emphasizing the last bank holdup of the James gang. The gang is well known in Missouri and surrounding states. So Jesse comes up with a bold

November 4, 2009

new plan to rob a bank in Northfield, Minnesota. Jesse, who is unaware that the Pinkerton Detective Agency has an informer in his gang, namely Bob Ford, organizes the plan and the gang rides to Minnesota. The bank robbery, of course, is a total disaster because the town has been informed that the gang is coming. Most of the gang is killed or captured during the raid. Jesse and Frank managed to escape and make their way back to Missouri. Jesse finally concludes that he has to lay low for a while. He settles down under an assumed name. Things are going pretty well until the reward for Jesse James reaches a point that even his own gang members are tempted to collect it. Finally, Bob and Charlie Ford pay a visit to his home. While there, Bob shoots Jesse in the back when he reaches up to straighten a picture on the wall. Today we give a reel memories salute to the cast and crew of The Long Riders. William V. Reynolds is the author of “Murder in the Okefenokee” available at McCaysville Public Market and Pat’s Country Kitchen in McCaysville; Parris Pharmacy, Ingles and Book Nook in Blue Ridge; Book Nook in Blairsville; and Phillips and Lloyd in Hayesville.

Journal of a living lady

By Nancy White Kelly #356 Month of October

This concludes the travel log of the fantastic trip Charlie and I received as a result of my winning an essay contest sponsored by British Airways. After a greatly anticipated journey from Atlanta to New York to London, we were finally in historic Jerusalem. The first day was a bust. The narrow streets that were originally intended for donkey travel have not improved much in 2000 years. After returning the rental car to the airport terminal in Tel Aviv, we walked or took taxis driven mostly by Middle Eastern mad men. Communication with drivers was in Southern Anguish. Jerusalem is not laid out in orderly fashion. We paid mucho shekels for each ride and no doubt were exploited for our directional ignorance. One exception was a Messianic Jewish man named Adam. He observed red-faced Charlie huffing while climbing the Mount of Olives. He offered our out-of-shape son a free ride to the top which he readily accepted. If either of us had known how much walking this tour of Israel would require, we would have prepared by running the Boston Marathon. Adam was quite knowledgeable of biblical geography and rattled off fascinating facts. Charlie jotted notes. An hour later he rushed into our motel room demanding that I come immediately. Even though I had taken the day off to recoup, I was reasonably dressed. As we hustled down the forty-four stairs, Charlie explained that Adam was going to take us on a personal tour of Bethlehem and connect us with two of his friends. I quietly sat in the back seat trying to decipher Charlie’s earlier cryptic notes. Even though I am a retired educator, it was difficult deciding if his writing was ancient Arabic or the

scribbling of a dyslexic second-grader. As we traveled to Bethlehem, the two young men talked enthusiastically and non-stop about the geography, people and events described in the Bible. A heavily armed guard at the entrance to Bethlehem recognized Adam and waved him through security. Because of the known political and religious unrest in this region, this casualness briefly raised my antennae, but I remained quiet. As the taxi maneuvered narrow streets, the poverty in this quaint historical town was noticeable. Beggars sat on street corners and scraggly children explored the trash piles. Adam stopped the cab in front of a tiny storefront that looked more like a cave. He honked his horn and out came the proprietor, a small Jewish man who welcomed us like old friends. His aunt offered us cold drinks. I admired the jewelry and the knick-knacks made of intricately carved olive wood. Several times I asked prices, but the aunt was evasive. Instead she offered an obviously well-practiced spiel regarding the artistic skill required to make the souvenirs. This was frustrating because I had no idea of a price range. Was the silver necklace with purple stones five dollars or five thousand? Adam waved the man and his aunt away and said we would shop later. He wanted to take us to meet other friends. One was the over-seer of the stable site where Jesus Christ was believed to have been born. Many years of renovation had turned the building into an ornate, church-like sanctuary. Long lines of people awaited an opportunity to see the spot where the manger once was. To our surprise, Adam spoke to another friend who shooed all the other visitors back. He motioned for Charlie and me to touch

known. Unbaked yeast dough toxicity is particularly a problem in small dogs. Rapidly multiplying yeast cells cause swallowed dough to continue rising, creating a risk of blockage or even rupture of dog’s gastrointestinal tract. If Fido starts acting lethargic don't wait, but seek out veterinary care. One of the newer toxicities that have come to light is Xylitol poisoning, thanks to "sugarfree" products. Xylitol is an artificial sweetener that causes dogs to have very low blood sugar levels and can lead to liver failure. This product is most commonly found in sugar-free gums and if your dog snatches just one piece it can be toxic. Another toxin is zinc. If your dog swallows a zinc penny, screws or other items containing zinc, it can cause zinc toxicity leading to gastroenteritis, hemolytic anemia, inflammation and possible necrosis of the liver, kidney or pancreas.

the large, ruby-colored star that marked the historical spot of Christ’s birth. The aggressive manager then grabbed our cameras and photographed each of us. I was puzzled and embarrassed by the preferential treatment. There were many old and lame who obviously had stood in the line for hours for their turn to view the stable site. Adam must have much influence in Bethlehem. My guess is that he routinely brings in supposedly rich customers from America. Unfortunately, this time he picked a young school teacher and his retired mother who couldn’t give the $3000 requested later that day for “the cause.” When Charlie finally convinced Adam, the stable manager, and the shop owner that we brought little money with us, they offered to take a credit card. While the needs of the poor in Bethlehem are legitimate, Charlie and I felt like gullible puppets who just had our strings rudely jerked. We rode back to our hotel in Jerusalem in noticeable silence. Charlie paid Adam and we never saw him again. By the week’s end, we were able to visit most of the sites that are significant to Christians. The one site that impressed us both was the burial tomb of Christ which was provided by Joseph of Arimathea at the time of his death. During a small span of time between tour groups, Charlie slipped into the stone tomb alone. He remained in solemn solitude for several minutes reflecting on the awesomeness of the moment. In describing that experience to me later, Charlie beamed as he reported, “Jesus was not there.” Mother and son smiled in agreement. “I know,” I responded with a nod. “He is risen.” Being a newspaper column limits me from giving all the details about our trip. I could fill a book about our inspiring journey to the Holy Land. However, it is time to move on to other adventures of this Living Lady. Shalom, ya’ll. -nancyk@windstream.net

Keep Fido away from these foods Columnist

November….the time of year we all begin thinking of the upcoming holidays with lots of fun, frivolity and, of course, food. Besides minding our own waist lines, it’s a good idea to not only be aware of how much your dog eats, but “what” he eats too. Do you know that the ASPCA’s Animal Poison Control Center receives close to 100,000 phone calls each year about dogs who swallow or become exposed to dangerous toxins? Over 15,000 of those calls were about common food ingredients in our cupboard or on our tables that can make dogs sick. While most dog owners are aware that chocolate, raisins and grapes and macadamia nuts are toxic to dogs, there are a few items that are not as well

Let us help you select that special bottle of wine for dinner with friends or a gift. Also, we are having Senior Discount Days on Monday and Thursday – 10% off any wine or beer in the store. Seniors must be 65 years or older and bring coupon. We also have many discounted wines.

Make your own 4 or 6 pack. Serve your friends unique and delicious beers. We now carry Fat Tire Beers as well. We have over 200 Domestic and imported Beers and Ales – Come check us out!!!

So, what can you do? Be sure to store potentially dangerous foods and household items in places your dog can’t reach. Educate your friends and family to keep toxic items away from your dog. Keep phone numbers on hand for emergencies: your vet, the closest emergency clinic and the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Hotline: 888-426-4435 which is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And if your dog is acting strangely or exhibiting strange symptoms, be sure to err on the side of caution and take him to the vet because waiting could certainly be fatal.

LIFE & ARTS Cookie of the week Whoopie Pies

Ingredients

Makes 12 •1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled) • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (spooned and leveled) • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 1 teaspoon baking powder • 1 teaspoon salt • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature • 1 cup packed light-brown sugar • 1 large egg • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract • 1 cup confectioners’ sugar • Orange nonpareils or sanding sugar, for decoration

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; set aside. 2. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat 1/2 cup butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg; beat until smooth. With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture and applesauce, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix just until smooth (do not overmix). 3. Drop dough by heaping tablespoons, 2 inches apart, onto two baking sheets. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cookie comes out clean, 10 to 14 minutes. With a thin metal spatula, immediately

transfer cookies to a wire rack; let cool completely. 4. Meanwhile, make filling: In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat vanilla and remaining 1/2 cup butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add confectioners sugar, beating until smooth. 5. Spread bottom of half the cookies with 1 tablespoon filling each; sandwich with remaining cookies, pressing gently so filling oozes out slightly. Sprinkle exposed filling with nonpareils. Let rest 15 minutes to set. (To store cookies, keep in an airtight container at room temperature, up to 2 days.) Helpful Hint We added applesauce to the batter for soft and moist results.

Swing Swing Swing

Big Band Jazz comes to the Peacock Playhouse

The thrilling sounds of the 40’s big band orchestra come alive again at the Peacock Playhouse in Hayesville with ‘Swing Swing Swing!’, a benefit concert on Sunday afternoon, November 15, at 3:00 pm, featuring the Brasstown Big Band and vocalist Lee Holland performing a lively repertoire of arrangements from Glen Miller, Stan Kenton, Louie Prima, Eubie Blake, George Gershwin, Hoagy Carmichael, and other favorites. The 17-piece orchestra of the Brasstown Big Band is based out of Young Harris College and includes many of the top jazz sidemen in the region, from North Georgia to Waynesville. Trained at many of the country’s most prestigious music institutions and boasting credits that include performances with the biggest names in jazz, these veteran sidemen labor quietly among us by day as doctors, preachers, teachers, high school band directors, musical instrument repairmen, and the like—but when they grab their seats in the orchestra pit, they’re instantly transformed into masters of big band jive, and the music soars.

The more-than-mellow saxophone section includes alto players Keith Soltys and Mike Campbell; Richard Bentivegna and Jeff Maynard on tenor sax; and Alan Denmon on baritone sax. Their hip-lipped brass section boasts Kenny Rittenhouse, Dr. Jeff Larson, Ken Soltys, and Dr. Bill Gustin on trumpet; with Scott Barnstead, Jack Warner, Don Cheyne, and Rick Land on trombone. Rounding out the group is the robust rhythm section of Richard ‘Bucky’ Buchamaier on piano, George Clifford on bass, and Ted Wade on drums. The scintillating songstress and recording artist Lee Holland will front the band in a special ‘spotlight’ set to get the afternoon into full swing. The event is a benefit presentation of the Cherokee County chapter of The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, and all proceeds from the concert will be devoted to assisting local families in desperate need.

The Brasstown Concert Association (BCA) will present John Jaramillo in a performance on Sunday, November 15 at 2:30pm at the Keith House, John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. Professional dancer John Jaramillo will present a two-part program in Brasstown, spanning the Atlantic, from the fiery discipline of Flamenco to the spectacular “warrior’s” dance of the Aztecs. Jaramillo’s program will include explanations of the dances, their histories and their similarities. Thoroughly trained in theatre as well as all schools of dance including jazz and classical ballet, Jaramillo’s colorful and enthralling performances highlight his own interest in education and passion for teaching. As one of his younger workshop participant writes: “…You are a good prsin (sic). Good work, dude!...” Following formal education in his home state at the University of New Mexico, John Jaramillo has performed throughout the United States, including appearances at the Smithsonian Museum of the American Indian, The

American Dance Festival as a principal dancer, the Prairie Dance Theatre and many others. His training has included master classes at the Amor de Dios School of Flamenco Dance in Madrid as well as traditional Aztec Dance from Paz Zamora as a performing member of Ehecatl Aztec Dance Troupe. Reactions to his performances have been truly enthusiastic, including those of children. Bob Grove, BCA president and a drummer himself, says “This program is tremendously appealing to all. The strong cadences weave throughout both Flamenco and Native American dances. Our audience might do more than tap their feet!” This concert is supported in part by The North Carolina Arts Council, an agency funded by the State of North Carolina and the National Endowments for the Arts. John Jaramillo’s performance will be held in the Keith House at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown. No reservations are required and seating is by general admission. Tickets for the event may be purchased at the door on Sunday November 15; $14 for adults and $7 for students. For information call 828 389 2595 or email Brasstownconcert@gmail.com
