My brother-in-law likes to dance around his house around hunting season, singing the lyrics, “It’s the moooost wonderful time of the year,” to show his delight about donning camo and sighting deer. Me, I sing that song around Halloween—when my massive costume collection comes out of storage, its bits and pieces strewn about and used again and again for this costume or that one. Neither of us are singing that song at the right time of year, but that’s OK. At Halloween, we can be anything we want to be; can sing any song we desire, because hey, it’s a free country.

Inside this Halloween issue, find lots of things to chew on, including a roundup of all the parties on the docket this coming weekend, a case for composting that gaggle of pumpkins currently starting to rot on your front porch, a conversation with a real-life local witch and lots more.

Whatever you choose to do for your Halloween revelry, I have one request: Make it the most wonderful time of the year by actually wearing a costume if you go to a Halloween party! It’s practically required… even in a free country.

O GUEST OPINION: LIBRARY

Listening to the discussion at meetings; some of these restrictions are self-imposed. Comments of “we need to get on with it” are not the course for decision making. Other comments about not considering other options for library size ignore the request from the public to generate more branches, not an edifice to our ability to spend money. The “central” library, as proposed, costs almost the same as Caldera High School and is less than half as big. When I voted yes, I was not voting for this type of development. I was looking for the library to develop more branches to reach our population. The board takes pride in saying they consulted with the public. I contend that consultation, when needed, was avoided. Why didn’t the board ask the public’s input for the location of a new site? Was there only one site considered? If so they should have retracted and required additional options. I provided a list of potential sites in southeast Bend using the misinformation provided and never heard a word. I did find out at the October meeting that any additional sites were not considered. I am offended the board does not ask for alternatives and allows themselves to be carefully led to a predetermined conclusion.

The board should consider every child in Deschutes County needs a library close to home. We do not need a commute to the “great OZ” on 27th Street. Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Mrs. Ward.

charity care to my mom during my birth.

Two years later, the Chemawa Indian Health Service Center in my hometown of Salem was established. I was able to get the care I needed that my family may not have been able to otherwise afford.

I joined the U.S. Army at 18, a blue-collar kid in the hopes of adventure, a vocation, money for college—and seeing the world while serving the country I love.

I served in Army hospitals for eight years in the U.S and around the world, to include Afghanistan. As an active-duty soldier, I always received high-quality care from the military health system.

I received an Honorable Discharge from the Army in 2003. Ever since I have been eligible and received “the best care anywhere” from the VA. Whether because of my status and eligibility as a Native American; as an active duty soldier; or now as a Veteran—the federal government has always ensured that I had the care I needed to thrive. I want this right to health care for all my fellow Oregonians regardless of their background or demographic. Measure 111 will add language to the Constitution which establishes health care as a human right for ALL Oregonians.

I encourage voters to vote YES on Measure 111.

DOOR KNOCKING As election season is in full swing, and will (thankfully) be drawing to a close in the next two weeks, I’d just like to gently remind my neighbors and friends here in Bend and Central Oregon that it

is very likely someone with a campaign, cause, or political party may be knocking on your door, including yours truly.

Door knocking and canvassing are essential components of political campaigns. Canvassers typically only have a quick question and don’t want to take much of your time. For some like myself, it is a job, but the vast majority are volunteers who are sacrificing their time because they care about their community.

I would like to applaud and praise the overwhelming majority of people I’ve encountered, who have been kind, polite, receptive, and generous. From the gentleman who offered me a can of coke on a hot day to the lady who invited me in to warm up with some tea, most everyone has truly lived out the “Be Nice You’re In Bend” mantra.

If you don’t want to participate in a survey, a simple “no thank you” will do. I’d encourage everyone to treat canvassers of “the other side” with the same respect and courtesy as you would someone who aligns with your own beliefs. If you don’t want to be bothered, a “No Soliciting” sign costs as little as $8 or you could make your own.

Thank you for being kind.

The Deschutes Public Library and I have a history. When I was 11 years old my mother and I would make the five and one-half block walk once a week to borrow and return books. The branch library was one room in the Redmond City Hall and Mrs. Ward was “my” librarian. Mom would read Runyon and Hemingway. I would read Twain and Churchill. The library was able to provide a valuable part of my education and I am appreciative of their support to the citizens of our communities.

Jumping ahead over 60 years I was asked to vote on a bond issue expanding the library and creating a “central” library on a 12.75 acre parcel off Hwy 20 northwest of Bend. The price for the parcel was $1.35 Million. The Bond $190 Million.

I voted yes.

After missteps with the City over the Hwy 20 location the Deschutes Public Library board announced they had made a $10 million dollar offer on a 10-acre parcel. The price had jumped from $100,000 per acre on OB Riley to $1,000,000 an acre on Stevens Ranch. A ten-fold increase. On Oct. 12 the board voted three yes, one no and one abstain to make the $10 million purchase.

I was shocked at the change and wanted to know what happened. My attendance at library board meetings revealed most of the events as I understand them.

At the first meeting I reminded the board that conditions change. My trust was the board would focus on building branch libraries to reach all the public. Instead, we have a goal of building a very large symbol to the misuse of funds. There are so many ways the board could do good things and they are not recognizing the opportunity.

Decisions are being made working under unreasonable restrictions.

Culver Pulls Students From Camp Over Nonbinary Counselor WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 27, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Students were removed from Outdoor School, a popular three-day camp, after learning the student counselors overseeing multiple cabins identified as nonbinary

By Jack Harvel

O

n Monday Oct. 17 about 50 Culver School District sixth-graders were pulled from Camp Tamarack’s Outdoor School program, a three-day and two-night camp that blends school curriculum with outdoor activities that over 40 schools participate in. Camp Tamarack staff said they weren’t aware the students were leaving until the buses arrived and didn’t learn why the students left until CSD Superintendent Stefanie Garber issued a letter to parents the next day.

The letter detailed how some students told teachers they were uncomfortable bunking and changing clothes in a cabin with nonbinary student volunteers, though Tamarack does have changing rooms, private bathrooms and a shower house where students change in private. Nonbinary people identify as being outside of the binary gender spectrum and may identify as both female and male, neither female nor male, and may or may not identify as transgender.

Camp Tamarack states that it is inclusive of LGBTQ+ students and its equity, diversity and inclusion policies on its website affirm students' right to self-identify autonomously, use the facilities matching their gender identity and that nonbinary students are placed in cabins according to their friend group, or are assigned by their school counselor or guardian.

“At Camp Tamarack, it is our ongoing mission to ensure that Outdoor School is a safe place to work, volunteer and send children, regardless of an individual’s race, religion, sex, color, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity,” said Charlie Anderson, executive director of Camp Tamarack in an emailed response. “In order to ensure everyone’s safety, we follow the rules laid forth by the Oregon Department of Education.”

A social media post from Tamarack employees said many kids were upset to depart, with some chanting “let us stay” before leaving. The post also said the camp’s social media platforms and Google reviews were flooded with anti-trans and anti-nonbinary comments. Anderson said they’ve reported a large number of the posts and that most of them have since been removed. Garber says she’s been called a bigot for purportedly not supporting the camp counselors, but claims her actions supported both counselors and Culver students.

She said she made the decision to pull kids from the camp after several male students expressed discomfort about the counselors to their teachers,

which then filtered up to the Culver Middle School principal and finally her.

“There were boys that were very uncomfortable that their counselor appeared to be a female but identified as nonbinary. It was my understanding that it was more than one cabin. Given the circumstances I consulted with a couple other administrators, and it seemed like a no-win situation,” Garber said.

Garber said she felt rearranging camping accommodations would unfairly single out the nonbinary camp counselors, and that she didn’t want Culver students to remain in a situation they felt was uncomfortable. Garber said it was a difficult decision to make and one she doesn’t take lightly.

“It just seemed best to retreat. I lost sleep over the decision. It was not easy.

And Culver school district fully supports our own LGBTQ community, and we support the heterosexual community. It’s a delicate balance for schools,” Garber said. “The parents trust us to take care of their kids, no matter how they identify. And so, if the students were uncomfortable enough, multiple of them, to go to the teacher, we have to listen. Even if it was one student, you’d have to listen, but it was multiple.”

Both Garber and Camp Tamarack have accused the other of poor communication throughout the process. Garber’s letter says they erred on the side of caution but would’ve continued if they’d known beforehand that a counselor was nonbinary, allowing them to coordinate cabin placement with Culver students.

Anderson said that type of arrangement wouldn’t be possible, and that he wished Culver staff told camp staff that they were leaving.

“Our communications are not allowed to include the sexual orientation or gender identity of any of the kids, campers or student leaders at camp. We have been working with Culver since 2015 and the communication this year has been no different than in years past,” Anderson wrote. “Though the superintendent apologized to us for her gap in communication, we feel that was a missed opportunity for meaningful communication and solutions.”

The Oregon Department of Education Communications Director Marc Siegel told the Madras Pioneer that districts are encouraged to consider cisgender student discomfort or lack of understanding with the increased harm and safety needs of gender noncomforming students, but couldn't say if a violation occurred.

"Accommodations can be made for those students that feel uncomfortable, and a student should not be forced to stay in a situation where they are uncomfortable," Siegel told the Madras Pioneer. "But that individual support plan cannot create a discriminatory environment for other students either, and cannot infringe on the rights of others to experience nondiscrimination."

Other school districts are revising their outdoor school curriculum as well.

Buff Elementary in Jefferson County told parents of fifth-graders they’d be taking day trips to the camp but will not be spending the night. The public information officer of Jefferson School District didn’t respond to a request for comment.

County Still Not Funding Abortion

Despite the overwhelming support of an employee advisory committee, Deschutes County Commissioners deny expanding health plan to fund abortions

7

D

eschutes County Commissioners Tony DeBone and Patti Adair removed a proposed health benefit that would’ve changed the county’s health plan to cover abortion services at the board’s regular meeting on Oct. 19.

It was one of seven changes proposed by Deschutes County’s Employee Benefit Advisory Committee, which approved the proposals with a 14-1 vote.

The county’s health plan currently only pays for abortions if the pregnancy is the product of rape or incest or if the mother’s life is in danger. Commissioner Phil Chang was the sole vote to include abortion services in the county health plan.

“We are hearing from employees that they would like to have this benefit, (the Employee Benefit Advisory Council) voted 14-1 to support this change and the

“We are hearing from employees that they would like to have this benefit, (the Employee Benefit Advisory Council) voted 14-1 to support this change and the cost is very small. Benchmarking, comparing to other plans indicates we are out of step with most other employers on these issues.”

—PHIL CHANG cost is very small. Benchmarking, comparing to other plans, indicates we are out of step with most other employers on these issues,” Chang said.

Adding abortion services to the health plan would cost the county an estimated $8,000 to $12,000 a year total. Chang added that he didn’t think

funding abortions for county employees would change the number of employees seeking abortion.

The Employee Benefit Advisory Council made the same recommendations last year, which was voted down by the same margin. The state’s Reproductive Health Equity Act requires insurance

providers to fund abortion services, but Deschutes County is exempted from the rule since it is self-insured and had the rules prior to the act passing.

“I would agree with the values, and the fact that our plan is in compliance per legal, and it has been grandfathered in. I would continue it as it’s been grandfathered,” Adair said. “Sometimes you have to follow what you feel is important and I feel that our grandfathered plan is fine.”

Adair added that abortions that can be covered in certain circumstances, that birth control is covered by insurers under the Affordable Care Act and that county employees are largely satisfied with the health plan. The issue has been divisive and is a point of attack among both Adair and DeBeone’s challengers in the upcoming election.

Oregon Chief Justice Resigns

The justice in August ousted the director of the public defense agency, which is the subject of a $2.6 million lawsuit

By Jack Harvel

O

regon Supreme Court Chief Justice Martha Walters will vacate her seat three years before her term ends. The 72-year-old justice would have to retire after she turned 75, according to Oregon law, meaning if she filled out her term it’d be up to the next governor to appoint a new chief justice. With the close governor’s race, the retirement will allow Gov. Kate Brown to appoint someone more likely to be in line with Walters’ jurisprudence than if Republican candidate Christine Drazen wins the race.

Brown could also replace two other departing Supreme Court justices.

Thomas Balmer announced he’d retire in December and in July Adrienne Nelson was nominated to the federal bench. Nelson’s departure is dependent on her confirmation by the U.S. Senate; a hearing is scheduled for the end of December.

Walters is exiting after a year of struggling to fix the state’s broken public defense system. There were about 800 people without representation when Walters made her announcement. Walters oversees the Office of Public Defense Services, and in August called for executive director Stephen Singer to be fired after running the agency for eight months. When the Oregon Public Defense Commission failed to fire Singer, she dismissed the commission and reappointed members, most of whom voted to fire Singer. A few days later Singer was out.

On Oct. 6 Singer filed a lawsuit claiming he faced retaliation as a whistleblower, naming Walters as well as the former executive director of the agency. The $2.4 million lawsuit alleges Walters attempted to appoint “obviously unqualified attorneys to represent indigent defendants, and to meddle in the day-to-day affairs of public defense in Oregon.”

Walters will be replaced by Justice Meagan Flynn, who was appointed to the Supreme Court in 2017 and was re-elected to a six-year term that runs through 2025.

Martha Walters joined the Oregon Supreme Court in 2006 and became the state’s 43rd chief justice in 2018.

Culver saca a estudiantes del campamento a causa de un asesor no binario Por / By Jack Harvel Traducido por /Translated by Jéssica Sánchez-Millar equidad, diversidad e inclusión en su página web afirman el derecho del estudiante para auto identificarse autónomamente, usar las instalaciones correspondientes a su identidad de género y que los estudiantes no binarios son colocados en cabañas de acuerdo a su grupo de amigos o son asignados por su asesor de la escuela o su tutor.

“En Camp Tamarack, nuestra misión contínua es garantizar que la Escuela al Aire Libre sea un lugar seguro para trabajar, voluntariarse y para enviar a los niños, sin importar la raza, la religión, el sexo, el color, la discapacidad, la orientación sexual o identidad de género de la persona,” dijo por medio de una respuesta por correo electrónico, Charlie Anderson, director ejecutivo de Camp Tamarack. “Para garantizar la seguridad de todos, seguimos las reglas implantadas por la Secretaría de Educación de Oregon.”

Una publicación en las redes sociales de los empleados de Tamarack dijo que muchos niños estaban a disgusto por irse y algunos niños gritaban antes de irse “déjenos quedar.” La publicación también decía que las plataformas de las redes sociales del campamento y las críticas de Google abundaron con comentarios anti-trans y anti-no binarios.

Anderson dijo que han reportado un gran

BOOK YOUR

número de publicaciones y que la mayoría de ellas las han quitado. Garber dice que la han llamado intolerante por presuntamente no apoyar a los asesores del campamento, pero afirma que sus acciones apoyaron tanto a los asesores como a los estudiantes de Culver.

Dijo que tomó la decisión de sacar a los niños del campamento después de que varios estudiantes varones expresaron su disgusto con los maestros en relación a los asesores, lo cual se extendió al director de la escuela secundaria de Culver y finalmente llego a ella la información.

“Habían niños que se sentian muy incomodos porque su asesor parecía ser una mujer pero se indentificaba como no binario. Tenía entendido que era en más de una cabaña. Dadas las circunstancias, consulté con dos personas del personal administrativo y parecía que era una situación desfavorable,” comentó Garber.

Garber dijo que sentía que reagrupar el campamento sería injusto para los asesores no binarios y que no quería que los estudiantes de Culver permanecieran en esa situación en la que se sintieran incómodos.

Garber dijo que fue una decisión díficil de tomar y que no se tomó a la ligera.

“Parecía que era mejor retirarse. Esta decisión me hizo perder el sueño. No fue

fácil. Y el distrito escolar de Culver apoya en lo absoluto a su comunidad LGBT y a la heterosexual. Es un balance delicado para las escuelas,” dijo Garber. Los padres nos confían el cuidado de sus hijos, sin importar cómo se indentifiquen. Así que sí los estudiantes se sintieron lo suficientemente incómodos y varios de ellos fueron a hablar con el maestro, necesitamos escuchar. Aunque haya sido un estudiante, tendría que escuchar, pero fueron varios.

Tanto Garber como Camp Tamarack se han acusado el uno al otro por la mala comunicación durante este proceso. La carta de Garber dice que ellos se equivocaron en el aspecto de la precaución, pero habrían continuado si hubieran sabido con anticipación que un asesor s identificaba como no binario, permitiendoles a ellos coordinar la colocación de los estudiantes de Culver en las cabañas. Anderson dijo que ese tipo de arreglo no sería posible y que hubiera deseado que el personal de Culver le hubiera dicho al personal del campamento que se iban a retirar.

“En nuestras comunicaciones no se permite incluir la orientación sexual o la identidad de género de ninguno de los niños, de los acampantes o líderes estudiantiles," escribió Anderson. ­-Hay mas de esta historia en sitio web: bendsource.com

l lunes 17 de octubre, alrededor de 50 estudiantes de sexto año del distrito escolar de Culver (CSD por sus siglas en inglés), fueron sacados del programa escolar al aire libre de Camp Tamarack, un campamento de tres días y dos noches que combina el plan de estudios con actividades al aire libre en las que participan más de 40 escuelas. El personal de Camp Tamarack comentó que no sabían que los estudiantes se estaban yendo hasta que llegaron los autobuses y no supieron porque se fueron los estudiantes hasta que la superintendente de CSD, Stefanie Garber, emitió una carta para los padres al día siguiente.

La carta detalla cómo algunos estudiantes le dijeron a los maestros que se sentían incómodos compartiendo cuarto y cambiándose de ropa en una cabaña con asesores de campamento no binarios, aunque Tamarack consta con vestidores, baños privados y regaderas en donde los estudiantes se visten en privado. Las personas no binarias se identifican como si estubieran fuera del espectro de género binario y pueden identificarse con el género femenino o masculino, o como ni femino ni como masculino y pueden o no identificarse como transgénero.

Pumpkin Waste: Alternatives to the Landfill

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 27, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

with 1 billion pounds of pumpkins tossed out each year, composting, feeding to livestock and baking new recipes are sustainable alternatives

By Allie Noland

P

umpkins make decorating for Halloween easy. Grab an orange, plump pumpkin or a quirky, naturally patterned gourd from a local grocery store for a couple of bucks, put it on your stoop or in your windowsill, sit back and relax into the chilling weather of fall.

Sounds great, right? No plastic, no big spending and little effort. It is great! But it’s the intentional disposal that people neglect. After pumpkins get mushy and moldy, auto-pilot turns on and people go immediately for the dumpster.

Over 1 billion pounds of pumpkins are tossed into the landfill every year, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. It’s hard to fathom.

Living in Central Oregon, these comparisons might help you out. One billion pounds of pumpkins is equal to: • 1 billion cans of craft beer or 166 million six-packs • 41 million paddle boards (average-sized) • 500 million pairs of Birkenstocks • 91 million Thule Snowpack 6 ski/ snowboard racks • 13,000 fully loaded tractor trailers Landfills aren’t made for natural materials to decompose; they are made to protect the environment and our earth from contaminants. Organic material doesn’t break down the same way that it does in a composting system.

Composting is the best way to dispose of pumpkins after the Halloween season has come and gone.

“One big misconception we hear a lot in the community is that people think that all organic material, like pumpkins, just break down in the landfill. Landfills are actually designed to not allow things to break down in a way that composting allows,” said Udara Abeysekera, ReThink Waste manager at The Environmental Center.

Sending organic waste to landfills is detrimental to our environment because it increases methane emissions, according to the EPA. When organic waste is composted, methane emissions are significantly reduced.

composting within city limits for Bend, Redmond and Sisters. Food waste and yard debris are accepted in the composting bins and are picked up every other week. Other providers offer similar yard waste composting as well.

If residents don’t have a yard/food waste bin, pumpkins and organic waste can be taken directly to Knott Landfill Recycling and Transfer Facility to be composted.

“A circular system is what we want to strive for,” Abeysekera said.

Even before thinking of composting, finding creative alternatives can be a way to have some fun, get involved in the community or explore tasty new recipes.

Before pumpkins turn to mush, savor the flavor of the fall and cook something new. Pumpkins are a nutrient-rich

vegetable that have high levels of vitamin A, potassium and fiber. Baking them into muffins, bread or pureed soups is an easy and festive way to celebrate the nutrients of the pumpkin. Roasting the seeds in the oven is another classic way to make the most of every piece. Abeysekera wrote in a blog post that if people find their pumpkins looking a bit too far gone to bake into a tasty treat but not ready for the compost yet, try baking some dog treats using any number of online recipes.

Another way to dispose of pumpkins is to feed them to livestock. Chickens love pecking away at the sweet vegetable, and bigger animals eat them right up as a delicious treat. Know someone who has a farm or a couple of farm animals? Ask if they want leftover pumpkins.

“Let’s keep working on opting for natural materials instead of plastics and things like that, but let’s also just be aware of how to dispose of it in a way that’s responsible,” Abeysekera said.

“Let’s find alternatives for pumpkin waste instead of sending it straight to the landfill.”

The Sweet Saboteur Sham

people have fretted over poisoned halloween candy for more than a century, with almost no evidence it happens

By Jack Harvel

G

ather round the campfire and I’ll tell you a spooky story about the evil strangers who fill up children’s candy buckets with poison. Stories of poisoned trick or treaters have been around since the Industrial Revolution, when sweets started getting mass-produced rather than cooked in a kitchen. In those early days some doctors claimed to have treated dozens of patients a day from poisoned candy; by the early 1900s the U.S. Bureau of Chemistry still had found no evidence of poisoned candy. The scariest part of this story is that it’s almost always a myth—one that’s persisted for more than a century and morphed to fit into current anxieties.

There are only two confirmed cases of candy-tampering: In 1959 a California dentist gave candy-coated laxative pills to trick or treaters, and in 1964 a Long Island woman gave out inedible items like steel wool, dog biscuits and ant buttons to kids she thought were too old for trick or treating.

HALLOWEEN ISSUE Growing up I heard about razorblades in Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups from my brother, but the hoaxes have rolled with the times. Just last year attorneys general in Ohio, New York, Illinois, Connecticut and Arkansas all advised parents to make sure their kids aren’t eating marijuana edibles in their Halloween candy. They apparently weren’t familiar with Best’s work and assumed people would shell out $10 per candy just so some kid could have a good time. Snopes found zero cases of cannabis edibles being given to trick or treaters.

On Aug. 30 the Drug Enforcement Agency warned parents of “rainbow fentanyl,” warning drug manufacturers are deliberately marketing to children. Later the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told parents to be vigilant of candy during the holiday after seizing fentanyl pills in candy containers. Experts say they’ve

been getting different-colored opioids for years and haven’t linked it to an effort to get kids hooked — it’s usually used to distinguish one product from another on the street. Additionally, dealers typically don’t want to incur the severe legal penalties for dealing drugs to kids—plus, kids young enough to be attracted to bright colors don’t have enough money to be good repeat customers.

Fentanyl is scary enough without hoaxes. It’s now the leading cause of death among U.S. adults aged 18 to 45. It’s also extremely addictive, so if someone has bought some intentionally they’re probably going to use it rather than attempt to kill little Billy in his Spider-Man costume. So don’t get too anxious about your kid this Halloween; their biggest danger is developing a bad cavity and a stomachache.

What’s Up Witches?

a q&a with a modern-day witch and the founder of the witches of central oregon group

By Nicole Vulcan

P

articipation at churches has seen a steady decline since the mid 1990s, going from roughly 70% of the U.S. population attending a church, synagogue or mosque in the late ‘90s to around 47% of people reporting attendance as of 2021, according to Gallup polling data.

Meanwhile, another form of spiritual practice is on the rise: witchcraft. More than a trope involving black cats and cauldrons, people ascribing to this form of spirituality might focus on things like the notion of karma, the powers of the natural world or other pre-Christian belief systems. Between 2001 and 2008, the American Religious Identification Survey reported the number of Wiccans increasing from 134,000 to 340,000, and the number of Pagans increasing from 140,000 to 340,000. A study on religion by the Pew Research Center done in 2014 found that around 1 million people, or about .3% of the U.S. population, identified as Wiccan or Pagan—and that’s not even counting the number of people, like Central Oregon local Kiki Castro, who identify as “witches” while not ascribing to one particular ideology.

Castro formed the Witches of Central Oregon Facebook group several years ago. In honor of Halloween—which gets its roots from Pagan and other indigenous spiritual practices, I chatted with Castro about being a self-described witch in the 21st Century.

Source Weekly: Describe your witchcraft practice.

Kiki Castro: I feel like I use it when I need to—I’m not doing spells every day or anything like that, but I use it often.

It could be using my tarot cards, it could be praying to a deity, and it can be doing spells or making sigils, all that stuff that people think of when they think

of witchcraft. It just depends on what it is and what I need and then I kind of decide from there.

I’m very eclectic—I use a lot of different types of things. I wouldn’t say that I follow just one path.

SW: What was your introduction into this practice?

KC: I know this sounds funny, but when I was a kid I used to collect rocks, like most kids do. I would take them in my room and I would set them up in different patterns, and I would sit and concentrate on them. It’s just something I’ve been doing for as long as I can r e m e m b e r.

Even though I didn’t know what I was doing or why I was doing it, come to find out later, I have family in Central America who are also witches and practice. So it kind of came natural.

SW: How did it evolve from the rocks in your bedroom to something more?

KC: When I got older, after my 20s, it felt like it just really called to me and I started to take it a little more serious, and it’s something that is almost like self-care, at this point. It’s time when I can go and focus my intentions and whatever I want to manifest. Sometimes my kids join me—my daughters—and they enjoy it as well, and so sometimes it’s something we do together, but it’s just healing, I guess, in a way.

SW: Can you give an example of

something you might do when you need a little healing boost for yourself?

KC: One of my kiddos and I felt like we needed some protection, so we conjured up a little protection spell and made a sigil and made a protection candle—stuff like that.

SW: Do you have teachers that have helped you along the way?

KC: I’d like to say that I like to use the internet as a tool, but there’s just so much information out there that I’ve Kiki Cas come to the conclusion that tro there’s not one set way to do something. I have many books—you can take a little bit from each book, or I can just say, I’m going to go and make up my own thing, and I feel like that’s even more powerful, to create your own whatever it is that you’re doing.

SW: You created the Central Oregon Witches Facebook group.

Let’s talk about the formation of that group.

KC: It’s probably been at least two or three years now. It was just kind of a void that needed filled. I wasn’t ever really big on Facebook but what I do like Facebook for is being able to create these communities, and there wasn’t one, so I made it and I was like, well, let’s see what happens.

For a while there was maybe only 500 [members] but I would say in the last year we’ve gotten that extra 500. We’re

almost at 1,000 now.

SW: What might someone find in the group? I imagine there are lots of people practicing a lot of different ways.

KC: Yeah—and it’s all celebrated.

One of my main things about the group is, there’s no judgement, we’re not shaming anyone. We’re here to be uplifting. A lot of people are sharing, maybe something that they’ve practiced, or sometimes we will do moon circles, singing circles, drum circles. There are people who want to start covens. All sorts of stuff!

SW: What do events like this look like in real life?

KC: Some of the elder ladies that were there, they brought songs for us to sing, and a drum, and we all went around and shared things we wanted to manifest. We sipped on cider around a fire, and it was just really fun. It’s nice to be around like-minded people who are positive and just want good things for each other.

SW: That makes me think about how some people have a perception around what witches are. What kind of misconceptions do you have to deal with?

KC: That we’re evil, or that we wish bad things upon people—which neither are true. I think us witches know… it’s the basic rule of karma, right? Whatever you put out to the universe, it’s going to come back to you threefold. If you are spitting out some evil nasty, you’d better expect that to come back to you in a worse way.

SW: What does the time around Halloween or Samhain mean to you?

KC: It’s All Hallow’s Eve; the veil starts thinning. It’s a great time to connect with people on the other side. It marks the change of the seasons.

11 VOLUME 26 ISSUE 43 / OCTOBER 27, 2022 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

studied alleged candy sabotage for over 40 years and says of the few legitimate cases he encounters, none can be attributed to an individual committing random violence on kids.

“I have yet to find a report of an incident where a child was killed or seriously injured by a contaminated treat picked up in the course of trick-or-treating,” Best told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.

Around the time Best started investigating candy poisonings, it was a persistent fear among parents. A 1985 poll found that 60% of parents feared their children would be injured or killed from candy saboteurs.

Alternative events like “trunk or treat,” where people decorate their cars and allow kids to go car to car collecting candy among a trusted community — typically a church — became popular around this time.

New albums for spooky season

17

By Isaac Biehl

H

opefully by now you’ve gotten those jack-o-lanterns carved, a truck-full of candy ready for the taking and your Michael Meyers masks dusted off, because we’re officially reaching the peak of spooky season this weekend, people!

To help you elevate those scary vibes around the home for those trick-or-treaters or at your Halloween festivities this weekend, this installment of Source Material is highlighting a few new projects dedicated to the music of the horror genre.

“Presence of Evil” SHREDDER 1984 The darksynth stylings of producer Steven Schriver come all the way from Biarritz, France. Schriver is the mind behind Shredder 1984, who releases music heavily inspired by horror movies and video games. His latest album, “Presence of Evil,” pulls a ton of inspiration from ‘80s slashers and Schriver goes wild with his synths.

It’s like you’re being hunted by a robot version of Freddy Krueger. Schriver’s last couple of albums have been heavy on guitar shredding, so if you’re more into that don’t be afraid to take a look.

“Disco Drac” and “Halloween Howls” Slasher Dave Slasher Dave of Acid Witch is always on the ball when it comes to horror-themed tunes, but this month the Detroit musician has especially killed it. The first of his releases this month was for the single “Disco Drac,” a funky track inspired by Daft Punk and Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.” It’s a true Halloween dance jam that will get you boogieing. Then with “Halloween Howls,” a 10-track album, Slasher Dave combines a playful potion of metal and horror-tinged synths that were inspired by movies like “Goblin” and the “Halloween 3” score. It features a ton of fun voice clips of monsters and respectful citizens, evil laughter and legit witch cackles. The closer on the album features his band Acid Witch, which compiles a ton of cat screeches and bubbling noises in a non-annoying way—which is perfect for a song called “Witch’s Brew.”

“They Speak Italian” Vincenzio Salvia OK, this one is both funny and spooky. Vincenzio Salvia, a producer from southern Italy, crafted a whole concept behind his latest project “They Speak Italian.” In this world, a new political regime enforced laws that required Italians to reduce their carbohydrate consumption—which began turning the population of Italy into zombies due to unnatural nutritional imbalances! The horror. The project pulls from ‘80s glam rock and chillwave in a great way. In the end a group of influencers is able to save Italy and restore the people back to their right carb levels. One of Salvia’s songs was actually featured in the first episode of “Stranger Things” season 3, when Billy flirts with Mike and Nancy’s mom, Karen, so you know this one is going to be good.

“Crater Creek” Crater Creek This is the most different album in my roundup by far, but in the best way possible. Coming all the way from Glasgow in the U.K., Crater Creek creates “Halloween-themed emo power-pop.” You can’t tell me a detailed song about transforming into a werewolf clown or a pop-punk song about robot witches from hell isn’t a good time. This one has a little something for everyone who grew up jamming to emo pop and rock in middle and high school. There’s no better time than the fall to relive those days, so why not get festive with it? This album will keep you in a light mood for the evening and get you pumped to take on the horrors that sprout up around Central Oregon this weekend.

Volcanic Theatre Pub

Darlingside at Volcanic Darlingside has long been praised for its harmonies and intelligent songwriting, described by NPR as “exquisitely-arranged, literary-minded, baroque folk-pop,” and their dynamic presence (crowded tightly together onstage) have made them a live-performance favorite. But this album showcases their broader storytelling abilities: nature is a looking glass, the songs suggest, with tracks like “Ocean Bed,” “Green + Evergreen,” “Mountain + Sea" and “Crystal Caving” making metaphors of their titles. An experience of nature is an experience of self; an experience of self is one of natural change cut and complemented by stasis.

8-11pm. $25.

STRENGTHENING FAMILIES TO KEEP KIDS SAFE MountainStar Family Relief Nursery’s mission is to prevent child abuse and neglect through community support and therapeutic services that help vulnerable children and families succeed. We are the only program in Deschutes, Jefferson, and Crook Counties providing therapeutic classrooms, parenting education services, and family support targeted at protecting babies and toddlers who are at significant risk for abuse and neglect.

We envision communities that support each parent’s efforts to nurture their children’s emotional, physical, and intellectual development in a safe environment.

At MountainStar, our work is all about building community. Strong community starts with addressing the needs and barriers that are experienced by our most vulnerable families. That is where time, energy, and money can have the most impact. That is how we build communities that benefit everyone – communities filled with possibility and hope.

Over the past year I have seen that this work truly takes a village.

I am filled with gratitude for our donors, volunteers, advocates, and community partners who recognize the importance of this work and stand with us to keep kids safe and help parents succeed. Our community invests in MountainStar, and we are proud to remain at the forefront of conversations around crisis intervention, trauma-informed care, high-quality early childhood programs, and multigenerational impact. This work matters, and we are honored to be a leader in Central Oregon.

Sincerely,

Kara Tachikawa, Executive Director

Adverse Childhood Experiences can also include other factors People with 6+ such as poverty, racism and other forms of discrimination, ACEs can die community violence, and larger disruptions like natural disasters or war. This ACEs pyramid is a visual demonstration of how historical trauma and negative social conditions can form the foundation for ACEs and the detrimental outcomes that can follow. It is important to note that a traumatic start to a child’s life does not automatically lead to a life of disease and early death. Although Early Death each of the levels on the pyramid can lead to the following outcomes, there are resources Disease, and tools that can serve as an “off-ramp” Disability, and at every level of the pyramid. These Social Problems off-ramps create resilience which leads Unhealthy Relationships to positive development and wellness.

arlingside is filling the Volcanic Theatre Pub with blending harmonies on Friday, Oct. 28 with support from Andrea von Kampen. This folk band is all about layering harmonies to create texture and experimental tunes that take listeners on a journey. Don Mitchell, Auyon Mukhar, Harris Paseltiner and David Senft met in northwest Massachusetts, started releasing music in 2010 and haven’t slowed down since.

Darlingside features an array of acoustic instruments in its music, including banjo, guitar, cello and violin, but also combines these folk-rooted sounds with electric instruments. Lyrically, this band’s songwriting explores storytelling and the experience of nature and nostalgia.

“We started to do away with the idea of having a traditional lead singer, and instead, combining voices with a lot of unison singing, two or three. Sometimes all band members sing the same lines together, creating more of a choral sound,” said band member Harris Paseltiner.

And it didn’t come naturally at first, according to Paseltiner. Darlingside took time to blend voices and find unique textures in layering different groups of people in different voice ranges. The band has found ways to master performing together as one.

The band has released five full-length studio albums, with a sixth on the way.

The latest release, “Fish Pond Fish,” is Darlingside’s pandemic creation. The album touches on botany, geology, ornithology and astronomy, topics you would find in a botanist’s journal. With strong yet smooth vocal harmonies and creative musicality, Darlingside is finally getting to play songs from “Fish Pond Fish” live at shows.

The band has a deep love and appreciation for Central Oregon. The four members of Darlingside have hiked Smith Rock, performed at the Sisters Folk Festival, played in the Tower Theatre and have helped out with music workshops in the area.

On tour, the band makes an effort to stay at family and friends’ homes instead of a hotel stay. “We would just rather feel like we’re at home when we’re out on the road,” Paseltiner said. “For me, it brings a lot of joy to get to step into different people’s daily lives and get to experience something different than when I’m back at home in Massachusetts.”

Darlingside is in the works of wrapping up its newest full-length album, and the band has been debuting select songs at its live concerts on tour. Joining the band on tour, turning four into seven, Molly Parden on bass and vocals, Deni Hlavinka on piano/keyboards and vocals and Benjamin Burns on percussion.

Flights Wine Bar Fall Menu Focuses on Shareable Plates

CHOW

Come for the wine; stay for the food!

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 27, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Donna Britt @donnabrittcooks Photos by Tambi Lane Photo

T

he mission of making wine fun and unintimidating continues; it’s just the food menu that’s getting a fall tweak at Flights Wine Bar on Bend’s west side.

“Food and wine just make each other better,” states Flights owner Kelsey Daniels. “Now that we have really gotten to know our customer base, we’ve realized that smaller portions and more shareable options are the way forward.

If you’re trying three different wines for example, you can also try three different food items that pair well with each of those wines and have fun and feel satisfied.”

For those Flights regulars, never fear, as favorites like the mac & cheese are staying on the menu, just in a smaller portion so guests can also try something else. Chef Nick Ragazzo’s housemade sausage is also still on the menu but now offered on a charcuterie board with all the accoutrements. Seared scallops, another Flights fave, is now served atop a celery root puree with tender, bright green bok choy and celery oil.

“Smaller plates makes it more social and more interactive,” explains Daniels, who opened Flights in November 2021 with her husband, Kent. While owning a restaurant/wine bar is even more unpredictable than the couple ever expected, Daniels has figured out that Flights is becoming quite the locals spot—a good thing as far as she’s concerned.

“We now have a base of regulars that have become friends and getting to hang out on a daily basis and talk about what I love to talk about – wine - with friends, is super rewarding. One of the reasons Kent and I picked Bend was because people are kind and nice as a whole here. Add people who love wine and that makes for lovely company.” Daniels left a fast-paced career in the film/TV industry after nearly two decades to explore her love of wine. “In between jobs, when I could travel, I would always try and find the nearest wine region, my ‘happy place,’” explains Daniels.

Another new shareable dish at Flights features perfectly sliced pork loin with cranberry beurre rouge, glazed apples and parsnips.

The new Autumn Salad at Flights with local chicories, delicata squash, persimmons and pomegranate vinaigrette.

With plenty of feedback from Flights’ local customers, Daniels and her staff spent a good amount of time reflecting on the new menu, which debuted Oct. 21. I stopped by that very evening and sampled several of the new items, which were all spot on and wine-friendly.

The new Autumn Salad featuring local chicories, delicata squash, persimmons and pomegranate vinaigrette was the best salad I’ve eaten anywhere in a long time. Other new dishes I highly recommend include Saffron Shrimp with fennel tomato compote, Smoked Yellow

Tail with everything spice and red onion confit and the perfectly sliced pork loin with cranberry beurre rouge alongside glazed apples and parsnips.

The new dishes were made to pair with wine and that’s where Daniels’ expert advice comes in. As a Certified Sommelier, Certified Specialist of Wine and WSET level 3, she presents wine tasting in a unique format, making it easy to try new things. Flights features all styles of wines from all corners of the world. Four flights are featured regularly and one of them changes each week.

RING US! 541-BURGERS

There’s the Light Side with white wines, the Dark Side with reds, the Localish flight with wines from Oregon and Washington, as well as the Wanderlust flight featuring a wine region with varietals from different parts of the world.

Daniels loves helping people realize they like something they didn’t think they liked, “I’ve definitely been pouring a lot of dry Rieslings lately and that is shocking to people to realize they like Riesling!” Riesling is a white grape variety that originated in the Rhine region of western Europe, and while some varietals are sweet, others are dry or semisweet. Of course, she can also suggest the perfect food pairing with your new favorite Riesling or any other wine you’re enjoying at the moment, which brings us back to the food.

Several special events featuring food (and wine of course) are on the Flights calendar over the next few months. On Nov. 30 there’s a Cork & Barrel winemaker dinner featuring five courses, all paired with Va Piano wines. The Flights one-year anniversary party weekend is happening Nov. 12-13 and everyone is invited to the open house with new menu items featured in cocktail party style. There’s also a James Rahn winemaker dinner coming on Dec. 7. And the next Women Tasting Flights group is Nov. 14 with two flights of three wines and two food pairings.

“We love doing special events. They bring out creativity, especially in the kitchen,” says Daniels, who’s establishing quite the reputation for hosting such events. Besides the wine dinners and tasting groups, Flights also presents live music on Saturday nights and Sunday Trivia each week.

Slow Cooker Apple Butter

Smooth and jammy, this classic apple spread tastes like fall and is easy to make in a Crock-Pot

By Donna Britt Slow Cooker Apple Butter Makes 5 cups • 6 pounds apples, peeled, cored, sliced • 1 ½ cup white sugar, divided • 1 ½ cup firmly packed brown sugar, divided • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves • Small pinch of salt • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Toss the peeled, cored and sliced apples with ½ of the white sugar and ½ of the brown sugar. Place the apples and sugar in a slow cooker and cook on high for 6 hours or on low for 8 hours. Stir in the remainder of both sugars along with the spices and salt and cook on low for another 4 hours or until the apples are extremely soft, stirring occasionally. Once the apples are completely tender and dark brown, add vanilla.

Puree the apple mixture with an immersion blender or carefully remove from slow cooker and blend in a regular blender, a bit at a time, until smooth. Return to slow cooker and cook for another 1 to 2 hours to thicken.

Spoon thickened apple butter into jars or containers. Let cool completely. Store in refrigerator for up to one month. You can also freeze for up to six months.

Serve with hot biscuits, toast, pancakes or waffles. Use as a spread on sandwiches, stir into oatmeal or dollop onto roasted pork or chicken.

T

is the season…for apples! I’m partial to this fruit for a variety of reasons.

Apples are pretty, they’re portable, they taste good and they’re good for you with 5 grams of fiber in a single apple. I also like their versatility. Raw, baked in a pie, sliced with cheese, spread with peanut butter, cooked into applesauce, dipped in caramel, it’s hard to believe this one fruit can show up in so many different ways.

The apple tree originated in an area between the Caspian and the Black seas but these days 7,500 varieties of apples are grown around the world and 2,500 varieties are grown in the United States alone. Apples are grown in all 50 states and grown commercially in 36 states. Washington, our neighbor to the north, and New York are the top apple-producing states. The pilgrims planted the first apple trees in the U.S. in the Massachusetts Bay Colony. And here’s another fun fact: the crabapple is the only apple native to North America.

Back to the versatility of the apple; there are so many things you can do with apples from baking pies and crisps to using them in savory dishes (they roast well with poultry and make a great accompaniment to pork). You can cook them down into applesauce or press them into cider. I’ve chosen to make a huge batch of apple butter with my recent haul.

The roots of turning apples into apple butter go way back to Europe and the Middle Ages. Making apple butter was popular in colonial America through the 1800s and is a hallmark of Appalachian and Southern cooking to this day.

Apple butter cooks longer than applesauce so it ends up having a jam-like consistency. The sweet, smooth spread is traditionally served with hot biscuits but it’s also good on toast, pancakes or waffles. It can also be served as a condiment with roasted chicken or on pork chops or tenderloin.

Softer varieties of apples work well for apple butter as they cook down faster. Think Golden Delicious, McIntosh, Jonagold or Fuji. Granny Smith and Honeycrisp are good, too, though. Any apples you have on hand will work so don’t be too fussy about which variety to use for this simple recipe.

This recipe calls for the finished product to be cooled and then refrigerated or frozen. You could properly can the apple butter to preserve it so that it could be left on the shelf, but if you use this recipe the way it is written, the apple butter must be kept cold to keep it safe.

South Bend Bistro Owners Buy Jackalope Grill

Jackalope Grill, the downtown Bend fine dining restaurant open since 2005, is under new ownership. Laura Bliss, who owns South Bend Bistro in Sunriver, bought Jackalope two weeks ago, she told the Source Weekly. Bliss and South Bend Bistro Chef Kelly Day are each splitting their time between the two restaurants, Bliss said.

Bliss said she had been looking around for another restaurant to purchase when she was notified that Jackalope owners Tim and Kathy Garling wanted to retire and desired to have her buy the place, she said. Bliss plans to make any changes slowly.

“We’re not coming in to just take over and change it,” Bliss said of Jackalope. “I just like it the way it is.” Any changes they make to the menu will be customer-driven, Bliss said, with plans to run specials that may eventually make it onto the menu.

Jackalope Grill is currently open Wednesday through Saturday, but Bliss hopes to add Tuesday service back to the schedule soon, as staffing allows.

Spooky Books for the Season

Curl up by the fire and let these books take you on a journey By the Staff at Dudley’s Bookshop Café 37

“Slewfoot” by Brom If you’re a fan of A24’s “The Witch,” we have the perfect book for you from Seattle artist and author, Brom.

Set in Colonial New England, Abitha is a widowed outcast whose last chance for help is the ancient spirit living in the dark wood. Some call him protector, others call him Devil. Both Pagan and Puritan battle for the soul of the village in what feels like the perfect fall season read.

Atmospheric, sometimes gruesome, and wonderfully spooky.

“Once There Were Wolves’

by Charlotte McConaghy A thrillingly dark murder-mystery dive into the ways we seek safety by cutting ourselves off from nature, each other, and our own emotions... and how doing so creates the exact opposite of what we intend. Full of wild tension and vicious teeth, it’ll sit with you for a long time.

“The Stars Did Wander Darkling” by Colin Meloy If your creepy vibe veers more toward “Stranger Things,” this is your read. Meloy (Wildwood, The Decemberists) is pitch-perfect in this suspenseful YA horror set in a fictional Oregon coast town. Archie is bored with life in Seaham but when his dad’s construction company opens up the cliff beneath the old Langdon place, little things around town start to take on a sinister edge.

When the adults in town start to act strangely, too, it’s up to Archie and his friends to send this ancient evil back where it came from. It may be YA, but if you’re a child of the ‘80s or you’ve ever watched “The Goonies,” you’ll feel right at home with Archie and his crew, and you’ll be glad you’re along for the adventure.

“Certain Dark Things”

by Silvia Moreno-Garcia A neo-noir crime thriller set in Mexico City with biohacking Aztec vampires. Re-released for the masses after five years of a strong cult following and a too-small print run.

“Nettle & Bone”

by T. Kingfisher In a gritty world where princesses are pawns and may be sacrificed for the greater good, one sister refuses to accept her family’s fate and goes into the darkness to change it.

“House of Leaves” by Mark Z. Danielewski A story within a story within footnotes within a house that is larger on the inside than the outside. And it keeps growing. Written over 20 years ago, Danielewski uses masterful prose and the physical space of the pages to make you, the reader, feel like you may be trapped in the house, too. Experimental at the time but now widely regarded as a horror masterpiece.

“Beatrice Likes the Dark”

by April Genevieve Tucholke For little readers, this is an enchantingly illustrated story about Beatrice, who likes the dark, and her sister, Roo, who likes the light.

“Ocean at the End of the Lane”

by Neil Gaiman Fantasy and horror collide in this darkly nostalgic coming-of-age tale, where family dysfunction is as terrifying as the very real monsters in the night. “Coraline” for adults.

Unbeatable Rock SCREEN The Black Adam is just fine

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 20, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

H

ey there! Welcome to this review of The Rock’s new DC superhero movie “Black Adam.” Before we get to the fireworks factory, let’s talk for a second about the craft of writing and thinking about movies critically. I watch hundreds of movies a year, some of which are so bad they get a big, fat DNF from me instead of earning the closing credits. I don’t write about the absolute dreck for a lot of reasons, even though, yes, sometimes it’s very fun to absolutely destroy a terrible movie, but there’s also something deeply cynical about taking pleasure in yucking someone’s yum.

Cynicism about art and cinema is boring. It’s exhausting for everyone involved and really only exists to make people feel good about their own tastes and limits them to sometimes quite narrow comfort zones. Ultimately, the way that I look at a movie is simple: Did the creator of this piece achieve their intention, regardless of whether that intention was brilliant, ridiculous, terrible, etc.? I’m not going to go into the new Adam Sandler comedy expecting it to be “Dr. Strangelove,” because Sandler’s not trying to make “Strangelove.” At the end of the day, he’s just trying to make something as good as “Happy Gilmore” and those modest intentions are what he should be graded on.

The other slippery slope is when a critic bases a criticism on what they would have done instead of what the filmmaker actually did. Again, it’s all based on intention. When I see someone

The Rock would like to have a word with your manager.

writing the different ending they would have given a movie, my response is usually, “Good for you? Make that movie then.” If you’re just trying to impress the readers with how much better your ideas are, then you aren’t actually allowing yourself to have a relationship with someone else’s vision.

I love loving movies. I’m familiar enough with the language of cinema to know when I’m watching a bad one, but sometimes even those bad ones have so much batshit artistry to them that they have a big warm place in my heart.

There really aren’t guilty pleasures. Just pleasures. Everyone else’s judgement be

damned.

So, when watching something like "Black Adam,” a movie that the Artist Formerly Known as The Rock has been trying to get made for the last two decades, it’s hard to just look at it for the movie that it is and not the movie that it could be, should be or might have been.

The character of Black Adam has always been a third-string villain that dabbled in being an anti-hero, but mostly existed to be the arch-nemeses of Shazam.

Dwayne Johnson plays Adam as a much-less-evil, but still pretty murdery anti-hero, removing all the villainy to make a character that can serve as a foil

and then eventual teammate with the other DC Extended Universe characters such as Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Shazam, Batman, The Flash and The Suicide Squad.

“Black Adam” as a movie isn’t bad.

The Rock tamps down his bottomless charisma to actually play a brooding sad boi who does most of his emoting through his eyes. There’s a goofy MacGuffin, Pierce Brosnan playing a wizard, and The Rock basically inhabiting a character so strong that he’s on the same power level as Superman and refuses to use doors. Do these things sound fun to you? Good! They are. The film also has a terrible villain, some sloppy storytelling and wonky editing. All these things can exist in the same movie without it being the best or the worst thing ever.

Cynically, this movie also exists as set-up to eventually get Black Adam to fight the Justice League and get more superhero movies in development.

What kills that cynicism for me is that it’s genuinely fun to see The Rock as Black Adam and I look forward to seeing him play the role as many times as he’s contractually mandated to play him. I know it’s difficult to find the art in commerce, but it’s there if we look for it.

Don't Worry Darling

AMSTERDAM: A sprawling crime comedy starring Bale, Robbie, De Niro and…Taylor Swift?

OK. Alright. This is one of my most anticipated movies of the year and I still think it will probably be a hot mess. Director David O. Russell is behind two of all-time classics (“Three Kings” and “I Heart Huckabees”), so he has my loyalty no matter what. Regal Old Mill BARBARIAN: A woman arrives to her rental home but the dude who played Pennywise is already there. Most people would flee into the night, but then we wouldn’t have a movie, so she stays and deeply creepy horror ensues. This is a new horror classic from top to bottom. Regal Old Mill BLACK ADAM: This looks like every other superhero movie ever made, but “Black Adam” has been The Rock’s passion project for decades, leading me to believe there’s something about this story worth telling. I just want to see The Rock fight Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Shazam and Aquaman at the same time. See full review on page 38. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House, Odem Theater Pub, McMenamins

MOONAGE DAYDREAM: David Bowie in one of

the most visually and sonically daring documentaries, since ever! Tin Pan Theater

PREY FOR THE DEVIL: A spooky looking horror flick that follows the first female exorcist as she tries to save the soul of a little girl. There hasn’t been a good exorcism movie in a very long time and chances are this isn’t the one. Still, here’s hoping this rises above its generic trailer. Regal Old Mill SMILE: This new horror flick has a similar plot to “It Follows,” but looks just creepy enough to stand on its own. After a young woman goes through a traumatic incident, she starts getting stalked by a smiling creature that looks like people she knows.

Regal Old Mill looks like the film to beat during awards season, with Cate Blanchett’s performance as a volatile composer being called the best of her already very illustrious career. Very, very excited for this. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House, Odem Theater Pub

THE WOMAN KING: An historical drama/action movie about the Agojie, the all-female warrior unit that protected the African kingdom of Dahomey in the 1800s. Featuring an absolutely fierce performance by Viola Davis, this is a solid if flawed epic.

DON’T WORRY DARLING: The media loves to talk about all the drama involved with the making of this one, but completely forgets that 1) Olivia Wilde directed the charming and lovely “Booksmart,” 2) Florence Pugh is one of the best actresses of her generation and 3) that this movie is actually an original idea instead of a remake or comic book movie. I think it looks fantastic. Regal Old Mill age story that shows the highs and lows of following your dreams. A truly original comedy that will make you cringe through the laughter. Tin Pan Theater

OUTSIDE From Sea to Shining Sea… Bend local completes the scouting mission in an effort to establish a national scenic trail that circles the U.S.

40 WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 20, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

and Back Again

By Nicole Vulcan

P

lenty of people hike the Pacific Crest Trail, the Appalachian Trail or any number of other long-haul trails that give them a chance to experience a region and accomplish something big. But imagine essentially combining all the above-named trails—plus plenty more ground—to form a circumnavigation of the United States.

The American Perimeter Trail, recently scouted by Bend local Rue McKenrick, a “triple-crown” hiker who’s completed the Appalachian, Pacific Crest and Continental Divide trails, “seeks to connect the land, resources, people, and communities. It strives to encourage conservation efforts through recreation, allowing all people and generations to experience the diversity of the contiguous United States,” according to its website.

While intrepid hiker McKenrick was unavailable for this interview due to illness, coordinator Leilah Grace took part in this Q&A with the Source Weekly to share more about the American Perimeter Trail.

Source Weekly: Describe what the American Perimeter Trail is for those not familiar.

Leilah Grace: The American Perimeter Trail is a 14,000 mile trail that loosely traces the perimeter of the contiguous United States of America. We aim to create a conservation corridor that is available for all to use and enjoy and provide areas of wildlife and resource protection. Rue McKenrick spent from July 2019 through Oct. 8, 2022, hiking and designing the initial route.

SW: What was the motivation for this project?

LG: Rue has always wanted to give back to his country and creating this corridor leaves a mark for generations to come.

SW: Describe some of the unexpected things that happened along the trail.

LG: Rue had guns pulled on him in Texas, was detained by police in multiple states, he experienced a host of extreme weather conditions with large snows in Arizona and North Dakota, tornadoes in Ohio, a month of rain going northeast through the Appalachian mountain range. His entire hiking pack was stolen in Kalkasksa, Michigan. He had multiple illnesses, fire-ant bites, a concussion, broken ribs, fractured toe. He was fed and housed by countless people in communities not familiar with hikers.

SW: How did COVID impact the trip?

LG: As Rue approached the Appalachians, Covid hit and spread. The

The view from the Appalachian Trail in New York in 2021.

National Scenic Trails were telling everyone to stay home and Rue made the decision to stay off of closed trails and create his own route through the Appalachians. He designed a methodology to keep himself isolated and safe and protect the communities through which he would be passing.

He transitioned from buying supplies in town to living out of a box that was mailed to him every five to six days.

The box should contain all the food and supplies he needed for the next week.

He sent texts one or two times per day, updating his progress and location and severely limited his phone use since he would have limited opportunities to charge it. At the post office he would retrieve his package, charge his phone and chargers and be on his way. He did his best to avoid people and mostly interacted with the postmaster when picking up his box.

In turn the APT community grew and supported him by purchasing supplies and food off an Amazon wishlist. This carried forward into fueling Rue for the remainder of the trek.

SW: What are some of the toughest physical challenges Rue faced? What about mental challenges?

LG: Rue lost his brother Michael unexpectedly in June 2021 and that was one of toughest challenges he endured.

He flew back to Pennsylvania to bury his brother and then returned to North Dakota to continue hiking.

SW: What about down time? How was that spent?

LG: Rue did not take rest days during the scouting hike unless absolutely necessary and these were usually due to illnesses or injury. These days could be spent in his tent, a hotel room, or at a stranger’s home. He stayed with me twice for illness and injury. During these times he rested, repaired gear, made phone calls, sought medical attention if necessary and prepared to go back on trail.

Rue was forced off trail in October 2020 due to illness and weather, where he returned home to Bend for six months. The conference (nonprofit) was founded then, the community built more, and fundraising commenced to

fund the final leg of the trip.

In May 2021 he set out to finish the final 3,000 miles of the trail. On this segment he lost his brother, returned home and then back to the trail. He had to return to Bend in September 2021 due to illness again. There he continued working on the conference, fundraising and mapping the official route of the trail.

July 2022 he left to complete the final miles of the loop, encountered multiple illnesses and injury forcing him to Bend once more for two weeks to rest and heal.

SW: What’s next for the APT and for you?

LG: The conference becomes the focus as a conservation organization, growing our membership, finalizing the official route which will be different than the route that Rue hiked, and working with local organizations to protect land and resources along the route.

Our goal is to become a national scenic trail, which requires an act of Congress.

Risking getting wet and melting, this coven of witches takes on the cold Deschutes waters.

Bend Witches Paddle the Deschutes

T

he 4th Annual Bend Witches Paddle will take place on Halloween Day, Oct. 31, from 3-5pm at Riverbend Park. The concept is simple. Community members dress up as a witch or warlock, grab a paddleboard and head out to Riverbend Park to paddle down the Deschutes River.

This event is in support of the MountainStar Family Relief Nursery’s trauma-informed, strength-based child abuse prevention program. MountainStar will have a booth set up with loudspeakers, an informational booth and a donation drop-off table.

Donations aren’t required to participate but are encouraged. Diapers, wipes, books, toys and non-perishable foods will be accepted at the drop-off table. This event is about getting the community together to enjoy the beauty of Central Oregon’s nature and spread awareness for MountainStar.

“It’s a Bend-style event. Rain or shine, people are going to come out and support local charities and just enjoy being outdoors. We’re really excited,” said events and marketing manager for MountainStar, Kara Roatch.

McKenzie Stott has been one of MountainStar’s biggest supporters. Four years ago, to support MountainStar, Stott invited some friends to dress up as witches with her and bring donation items to support the nonprofit. It started off with a couple of dozen community members and has grown every year since.

Last year, there were 300 participants, the event raised $1,600 in cash donations for MountainStar and the MountainStar minivan was stuffed to the brim with donations, according to Roatch. The event planners are expecting to see even more involvement this year.

It’s not only paddleboards. People on canoes, kayaks, innertubes or anything that will keep afloat on the Deschutes are invited to join. The drop-in will start at around 3pm, but people are more than welcome to join at any point.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a lifejacket because the water is cold and shallow. If some don’t want to get in the water, dress up and join the many onlookers on the flag bridge. Donations can be made to MountainStar Family Relief Nursery at mtstar.org/donate.

BREWERY: Elysian Brewery (Seattle, Wash.)

BEER NAME: Chucky – a Killer Wit Beer WHERE TO GET IT: This was a challenge! A family member reached out from Florida asking me to find some. I searched beer finder and could not find it in Oregon. I reached out to the brewery requesting more information on where to find it. Basically, it’s available in the greater Seattle area.

They were gracious enough to send me a can to try and some swag. Perks of the job! Love it!

DESCRIPTION: Wit beer with pumpkin and cranberry. By far the

Do not operate a vehicle or machinery under the influence of this drug.

For use by adults 21 years of age and older. Keep out of reach of chiildren.

BREWERY: J.W. Lees (United Kingdom) BEER NAME: Harvest (2016) WHERE TO GET IT: Market of Choice DESCRIPTION: An English barleywine that comes in a tiny can. At 11.5%, you will be grateful! This beer is packed full of rich flavor; red fruit notes and a light sweetness that isn’t sticky. As it warms, you can pick up toffee. Aged in sherry casks, a spiciness from alcohol is present. The aroma is alcohol forward with a touch of earthiness and sherry notes. Carbonation is low. I enjoyed this beer. The complexity, alcoholic punch and toffee notes blend well.

DRINKABILITY: Because of the sweet notes, the lack of carbonation and the high ABV, I give this beer a 3 on the scale, but excuse me while I go buy some more!

coolest Halloween beer ever! Elysian collaborated with USA Network and SYFY in celebration of Season 2 of the Chucky series.

I’m a huge fan of horror films and absolutely had to get my hands on it.

Besides being cool, this beer is also tasty.

It starts on the palate as a solid wit beer, light and bright.

After it settles on the tongue, memories of Thanksgiving cranberry sauce that comingled with pumpkin pie come flooding in. The spices are subtle and balanced (nutmeg, light clove and a smidge of cinnamon). The spices are more prominent on the nose. This beer is balanced and cohesive.

DRINKABILITY: This beer is VERY drinkable. It isn’t over spiced, 5.3% ABV and it begs to be your friend to the end.

I give it a 5. It appeals to the masses, like the Good Guy doll! It’s crushable (unlike Chucky himself). a ow

ecently I went on a search for some great Halloween beers. I was looking for cool label art, complex flavors and NOT just pumpkin beers, of which there are many to contend with. Most still contain pumpkin, but in moderation. I’m quite happy with this lineup, consisting of a half dozen beers, paired down to my top three. I’ve rated them on a drinkability scale. As a reminder, my drinkability scale goes to 5—5 being the most drinkable for an average beer drinker.

Beers That Pair Perfectly with CRAFT Halloween CH

BREWERY: Jolly Pumpkin (Dexter, Mich.) in collaboration with Monkish (Torrance, Calif.)

BEER NAME: Cucurbitophobia WHERE TO GET IT: Bend South Liquor Store DESCRIPTION: Cucurbitophobia, or fear of pumpkins, is a wild fruited saison oak aged for four months and cask conditioned. The aroma is tangy, fruity, yeasty and hints of the smells of jack o’lantern carving. So many great ingredients are easily picked up on: black lava salt, rainbow peppercorns and blood orange. Nicely balanced.

This light and bright beer has complexity without feeling heavy and has a hint of funk on the finish. This is a very exciting beer, and the citrus notes really kick it up a notch.

DRINKABILITY: Absolutely a 5 out of 5. It has a light funk, but not too much, balanced and has a moderate ABV of 6.1%.

Honorable mention goes out to Prairie Artisan Ale’s Pumpkin Kerfuffle, an imperial sour ale worth your time. It can be found at the Bend South Liquor Store and probably some other places, too. Happy Halloween, spooks! Cheers!

WELLNESS

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Fear is the raw material from which courage is manufactured,” said author Martha Beck. “Without it, we wouldn’t even know what it means to be brave.” I love that quote—and I especially love it as a guiding meditation for you Scorpios right now. We usually think of fear as an unambiguously bad thing, a drain of our precious life force. But I suspect that for you, it will turn out to be useful in the coming days. You’re going to find a way to transmute fear into boldness, bravery, and even badassery.

the Canadian city of Sudbury hosted a robust mining industry. Deposits of nickel sulphide ore spawned a booming business. But these riches also brought terrible pollution. Sudbury’s native vegetation was devastated. The land was stained with foul air produced by the smelting process. An effort to re-green the area began in the 1970s. Today, the air is among the cleanest in the province of Ontario. In the spirit of this transformation, I invite you to embark on a personal reclamation project.

Now is a favorable time to detoxify and purify any parts of your life that have been spoiled or sullied.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The literal meaning of the ancient Greek word aigílips is “devoid of goats.” It refers to a place on the earth that is so high and steep that not even sure-footed goats can climb it.

There aren’t many of those places. Similarly, there are very few metaphorical peaks that a determined Capricorn can’t reach. One of your specialties is the power to master seemingly improbable and impassable heights. But here’s an unexpected twist in your destiny: In the coming months, your forte will be a talent for going very far down and in.

Your agility at ascending, for a change, will be useful in descending—for exploring the depths. Now is a good time to get started!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Evolved Aquarians are often blessed with unprecedented friendships and free-spirited intimacy and innovative alliances. People who align themselves with you may enjoy experimental collaborations they never imagined before engaging with you. They might be surprised at the creative potentials unleashed in them because of their synergy with you. In the coming weeks and months, you will have even more power than usual to generate such liaisons and connections. You might want to make a copy of this horoscope and use it as your calling card or business card.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I surveyed the history of literature to identify authors I consider highly intuitive. Piscean-born Anais Nin was my top choice. She used language with fluidity and lyricism. She lived a colorful, unpredictable life.

No one better deserves the title of Intuition Champion. And yet she also had a discerning view of this faculty. She wrote, “I began to understand that there were times when I must question my intuition and separate it from my anxieties or fears. I must think, observe, question, seek facts and not trust blindly to my intuition.” I admire her caution.

And I suspect it was one reason her intuition was so potent. Your assignment, Pisces, is to apply her approach to your relationship with your intuition.

The coming months will be a time when you can supercharge this key aspect of your intelligence and make it work for you better than it ever has before.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the coming weeks, I encourage you to work as hard as you have ever worked. Work smart, too. Work with flair and aplomb and relish. You now have a surprisingly fertile opportunity to reinvent how you do your work and how you feel about your work. To take maximum advantage of this potential breakthrough, you should inspire yourself to give more of your heart and soul to your work than you have previously imagined possible. (PS: By “work,” I

mean your job and any crucial activity that is both challenging and rewarding.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here’s my weird suggestion, Taurus. Just for now, only for a week or two, experiment with dreaming about what you want but can’t have. And just for now, only for a week or two, go in pursuit of what you want but can’t have. I predict that these exercises in quixotic futility will generate an unexpected benefit.

They will motivate you to dream true and strong and deep about what you do want and can have.

They will intensify and focus you to pursue what you do want and can have.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your most successful times in life usually come when all your various selves are involved. During these interludes, none of them is neglected or shunted to the outskirts.

In my astrological opinion, you will be wise to ensure this scenario is in full play during the coming weeks. In fact, I recommend you throw a big Unity Party and invite all your various sub-personalities to come as they are. Have outrageous fun acting out the festivities. Set out a placemat and nametag on a table for each participant. Move around from seat to seat and speak from the heart on behalf of each one. Later, discuss a project you could all participate in creating.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A Cancerian reader named Joost Joring explained to me how he cultivates the art of being the best Cancerian he can be.

He said, “I shape my psyche into a fortress, and I make people feel privileged when they are allowed inside. If I must sometimes instruct my allies to stay outside for a while, to camp out by the drawbridge as I work out my problems, I make sure they know they can still love me—and that I still love them.” I appreciate Joost’s perspective. As a Cancerian myself, I can attest to its value. But I will also note that in the coming weeks, you will reap some nice benefits from having less of a fortress mentality. In my astrological opinion, it’s PARTY TIME!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): L eo poet Antonio Machado wrote, “I thought my fire was out, and I stirred the ashes. I burnt my fingers.” I’m telling you this so you won’t make the same mistake, Leo. Your energy may be a bit less radiant and fervent than usual right now, but that’s only because you’re in a recharging phase. Your deep reserves of fertility and power are regenerating. That’s a good thing! Don’t make the error of thinking it’s a sign of reduced vitality. Don’t overreact with a flurry of worry.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo author Siegfried Sassoon became renowned for the poetry he wrote about being a soldier in World War I. Having witnessed carnage firsthand, he became adept at focusing on what was truly important. “As long as I can go on living a rich inner life,” he wrote, “I have no cause for complaint, and I welcome anything which helps me to simplify my life, which seems to be more and more a process of eliminating inessentials!” I suggest we make Sassoon your inspirational role model for the next three weeks. What inessentials can you eliminate? What could you do to enhance your appreciation for all the everyday miracles that life offers you?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You Libras have a talent that I consider a superpower: You can remove yourself from the heart of the chaos and deliver astute insights about how to tame the chaos. I like that about you. I have personally benefited from it on numerous occasions. But for the next few weeks, I will ask you to try something different.

I’ll encourage you to put an emphasis on practical action, however imperfect it might be, more than on in-depth analysis. This moment in the history of your universe requires a commitment to getting things done, even if they’re untidy and incomplete.

Here’s your motto: “I improvise compromises in the midst of the interesting mess.”

THE THIRD ACT

A COLUMN ON AGEISM AND AGEING By Ellen Waterston

a third-floor windowsill curled next to a pot of bright red geraniums.

Just to complete the visual perfection, a white lace curtain gently shifts in the open window and periwinkle blue wooden shutters startle the beige limestone exterior.

Greeting each new day, as townsfolk and tourists gather at local cafés, are the peals of each town’s cathedral bells and the chorus of bonjours sung in a descending scale of cheer like the delicate song of the canyon wren. A French shopkeeper told me the Dordogne is a region where “the time has not passed,” evident in the elegant simplicity, precision, arrested aesthetic and mannered choreography of each day. These communities know who they are.

Yes, five women in sensible shoes.

Believe you me, it was never a look I had aspired to but here it was. Collectively we were married, divorced, widowed or all three. Some had children and grandchildren, some neither. All together we had weathered many setbacks, produced many miracles— after seven decades it goes with the territory. Endurance athlete takes on a new meaning. Walking sticks in hand, packs on our backs, we inhaled all the French confections of food, art and place. And we covered all sorts of topics. The one that cropped up frequently, whether floating in a gabarre on the Garonne or scaling the centuries-old rock steps into Chateau Les Milandes, the entertainer Josephine Baker’s former residence, was that each of us was embracing and celebrating being who we are. We proclaimed “yamming” as one of the great opportunities of the third act.

Life asks us, men and women both, to perform so many parts in this lifeplay. It’s the blessing and curse of being in the contemporary human race: spouse, professional, parent, grandparent. But at this moment five women in our 60s and 70s were not only taking a true vacation tooling around the French countryside, but had entered a time in our lives in which we were taking a permanent vacation from being other than our true selves. I’d often thought, as we age, that we become a more and more exaggerated version of who we always were. I used to think that was a bad thing, that we were acting really old when really, we’ve stopped acting. This Halloween let’s all be what we yam.

—Poet and author Ellen Waterston is a woman of a certain age who resides in Bend. “The Third Act” is a series of columns on ageing and ageism.

hat are you going to be for Halloween? Here’s one: a dog nose and tail, a large plastic cone to attach around your neck, and you’re a wounded woof to go. Or for fun, how about an exaggerated version of yourself?

Gearhead, geek, helicopter (grand) parent, couch potato, bleeding heart environmentalist or, in my case, bleeding heart high desert rat. Then there’s dressing up as the true self—but who even knows who that is? I looked it up. It’s no surprise the question “How to know who is your true self?” produced seven powerful strategies, five steps, six steps, six ways, 10 questions and a true self quiz. Apparently, it’s equal parts social expectations and fear of rejection that lead us to override the still, small voice within; to compromise the soul of the poet, musician, explorer that lives inside us. But I think we all recognize that icky feeling in our gut when we compromise our essential self.

Maybe taking our true self out for a trick or treat night would do us some good.

I spent the last two weeks traveling at the speed of five-women-of-a-certain-age per kilometer through the picturesque Dordogne region of France.

France is roughly the size of Texas and, within that, the Dordogne covers roughly 4,000 square miles. It’s also the county of Périgord and, just to confuse things, there are four subregions within the Périgord: Périgord green (rivers and valleys), purple (wine region), black (oak and pine woods) and white (limestone plateaus). Our fearless fivesome explored some of all four. We found it to be a land of 17,000-year-old prehistoric cave paintings, of ancient and modern-day troglodyte dwellings carved into cliffs, 1,000 huge towered and turreted castles, of medieval bastides or walled cities. I can see why France and England fought for 100 years during the Middle Ages for the right to lay claim to this beautiful territory. It boasts grand rivers: Dordogne, Garonne, Vézère, Isle and Dronne. And now, world-renowned vineyards producing Bergerac, Pecharmant and seasonal aperitifs made from walnuts, chestnuts, even prunes.

Thanks to Michel de Montaigne, it’s the birthplace of the modern essay. This is the land of foie gras and of truffles, with dogs, not pigs, now the preferred hunter. Weekly markets fill each village with booths brimming with local crafts and fresh produce. In addition to dogs trotting purposefully ahead of their owner whose scarf, de rigeur, is thrown jauntily over one shoulder, there’s always a cat coolly surveying the hub-bub from

How to make smart choices with today’s buyers in mind that buyers are paying closer attention to right now. Decking, interior and exterior paint, roof (both age and condition), furnace and water heater (age) and flooring top the list of big-ticket items that are getting a closer look from today’s buyers.

As well, overall maintenance, interior features and curb appeal can make a big difference in the sale of your home.

The better maintained a home is the more confidence a buyer will have in the overall condition of the home. Making sure your lawn is well-maintained, chipped paint is refreshed, windows are sparkly clean, and any smells are addressed and corrected including pet odor—these simple, low-cost steps can ensure your home makes a good first impression.

Staging may also be more crucial in today’s competitive market. The goal of staging is to show the property in the best light to attract the right buyer.

Who doesn’t want that? A recent survey from the International Association of Home Staging Professionals shows that staging helps sell homes three to 30 times faster than the nonstaged competition. Further, staging can help increase the sale price by up to 20% on average.

Bottom line? In the ultra-hot market we experienced last year, buyers were more forgiving of deferred maintenance items. That time has passed. If you are getting ready to list your home, make sure to connect with an experienced Realtor ® to help you make smart decisions for today’s market.

T

he market has shifted. It’s important for sellers to know that buyers now have the luxury of being choosy. A year ago, a buyer would have mere hours to write an offer on a house.

Today in Bend, the average listing is on the market for about 20 days. Not only are houses staying on the market longer, but there are also more homes to choose from. In the spring of 2022, we had less than .5 months inventory.

This September, we had two months of inventory. That’s a 300% increase.

What does this mean? Buyers are looking at more houses and paying closer attention to the upgraded features, curb appeal and repair and renovation history. If you are a seller and want to be competitive in this market, it’s a good idea to look at your property from the perspective of today’s pickier buyer.

Clients often ask me what are the fixups and renovations that have the biggest return on investment when selling their home. First, it depends on the property and the neighborhood. If you have an older home and nothing has been upgraded, it’s likely best to leave it to the next buyer to make the property their own. If it’s in area where buyers expect homes to be in a certain condition and there are a couple of things that have been upgraded, it may make sense to do a couple more. I would always consult a Realtor ® to see if an upgrade is going to add value to a property and whether the seller will see a return on their investment.

That said, there are some features
