WINDSOR

2020

PRESIDENT’S PEN

Dear Friends,

I hate masks! I long for the days when I can see the smiles of the people I pass on the street or in the store. I miss the days when I can grab my beach towel and head to the pool on a whim. But, I am grateful for the creativity of our staff and committee members who have provided concerts, classes and food trucks in spite of the challenges.

Michele Compton, Board President

Recently, in a discussion about the upcoming board election, Donna Sanford indicated she would like to hear what the candidates’ visions are for Windsor Gardens beyond COVID. That concept intrigued me. What are the elements that we dearly miss --- the parts of what we used to do that we want back in our lives? And, how do we want Windsor Gardens to look in the future? If we leave the port without direction we will probably not end up where we want to be. So it might be helpful to reflect on where we want to be. In some ways, we have the opportunity to recreate our community with what we liked best and to consider what we no longer want to pay for.

One thing that came to mind is re-establishing a restaurant where we can gather with friends and family again. Where we can have catered events, and where we have a friendly bar. Other benefits of a community are a library where we can share good books and classes where we can exercise and learn new hobbies. I look forward to celebrations and fellowship. I believe we live in a community to benefit from pooling our resources to enjoy more things than we could do on our own. Enjoy what you can as we move ahead together!

Nancy was born in Limon, Colorado, 40 miles from her family’s Lincoln County homestead. She graduated from Hugo High School in 1940. Among her classmates was the one who would become her husband. Nancy applied to nursing school but was too young and instead worked as a nurse’s aide in Colorado Springs. She had been accepted into nursing school when her fiancée received his draft notice from the Army Air Corps. Nancy Jane Murphy and Eugene “Gene” Jensen were married in 1941 in Raton, New Mexico. They did not announce their marriage because nursing students could not marry at that time. However, Nancy was dismissed from nursing school after the authorities were informed that she was married. Then in 1944 she

Open the Woodshop for Limited Use

The woodshop has been closed for four months now. I'd think that by now the powers that be at Windsor Gardens would have come up with a plan on how to open it for limited hours and limited traffic. I'm not sure you need monitors as you have for the pool and the gym. Could an honor system work?

Open hours could be just 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. Each person could sign up for an hour a week, and they’d have to be in and out within that hour. Visitors would have to wear masks and agree to wash hands before and after use. Cleaning crews could go over the area at the end or beginning of each day.

Many residents are using the woodshop for hobbies, but some of us need it to complete projects in our units which have been halfway done for months now.

What do you think?

IN REMEMBRANCE

attended a different nursing school and became a cadet nurse out of Ft. Carson. The end of the war brought Nancy’s release from the corps, instead of her being shipped to the South Pacific as was scheduled. Nancy and Gene returned to Colorado after his discharge in 1945.

Nancy’s long nursing career at St. Luke’s Hospital in Denver, Colorado, began in 1948 and included general duty, surgical nursing, assistant head nurse, clinical instructor for urology services, head nurse, supervisor of special services and associate director of nursing services. Nancy retired from St. Luke’s in 1976. She was a founder and past district president of the American Nurses Association and past president of a part-time and non-practicing nurse group in Aurora. Nancy’s passion for genealogy led her to become a charter member and past president of the Aurora Genealogical Society as well as a member of the Clay County Historical Society and the Kanawah Valley Genealogical Society, both in West Virginia. In addition, Nancy was an active member of the Peace Pipe Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, holding many offices including two terms as regent. She was a member of the National Society of Daughters of Founders and Patriots of America, a member of The Mayflower Society and a member of the National Society of Colonial Dames – Captain Miles Standish Chapter. Nancy was a member of Park Hill United Methodist Church and then attended Windsor Gardens Church shortly after her move to the complex in 2005.

Following Gene’s retirement from Continental Airlines and Nancy’s retirement from St. Luke’s Hospital, they became active members of the Airstream Travel Trailer Club and the Continental Airlines Retired Mavericks Travel Club. They spent many happy years together traveling the country in their series of motor homes with their beloved dog, Klondike. Gene and Nancy were delighted to spend much of their time boating, fishing and camping with their family and friends.

Nancy was preceded in death by her husband, Eugene, her parents, a sister, two brothers and longtime WG friend and companion, Daniel Getz. She is survived by her daughter, two grandchildren, six great grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and friends.

continued from page 3

Nancy was a loving, resourceful, organized woman who left a legacy of values, faith and character. Her life’s work reflected her devoted, honest, dependable and selfless side while her personal life showcased her creative, fun-loving, independent spirit. She was truly honored and loved by her family and friends and the residents of Building 84, especially the C floor.

John Lee

John Lee, resident in Building 40 for many years, passed away on August 2, 2020, after a lengthy battle with prostate cancer.

John, a retired Methodist minister, had 43 years of active ministry and presided over countless weddings, baptisms and funerals. He was a popular and patient minister who always had a kind word and an endless compassion for all.

He had a private practice of pastoral psychotherapy for many years –which he had a passion for and continued until the very end. He also ministered for several churches in the surrounding area and touched the lives and hearts of many.

John was well-liked in his building and loved by many. One resident stated that he looked like Santa Claus with his white beard and always greeted everyone he met with a wink, a smile and usually a bad joke. John has three sons: one who lives in Wheat Ridge, another in Seattle and one on Vashon Island, Washington. He was surrounded by his three sons and several grandchildren at the time of his passing. Many hundreds of people that he had touched over the years will always hold him in their hearts.

Mary Jane McCormick, a close friend and caretaker of John Lee, shares the following questions offered by John, the man of many questions. His memory offers inspiration for anyone seeking to nurture themselves and other human beings.

What is trying to be born in you?

What can you become because of this life issue that you could not become without it?

What or where is the point of grace in this life situation?

What is the most creative way to deal with this life issue?

What excites you and leads you to being playful?

How can you stay connected to your own unique preciousness?

Each morning ask: What does this day tell me about Love’s coming?

Each evening ask: Where in my day did love visit?

Thank you, John, for the gift of living among us.

Only Four Candidates Run for Four Board Openings: No Vote Required

Compton, Dean Deverick, Jane Doyle and Bobbie Mays will Serve on the 2021 Board of Directors

According to the association governing documents, voting for the board of directors election takes place when there is at least one more candidate than there are seats opening on the board. For the 2020 board election, candidate nomination and consent forms were due into the association office by 4:30 p.m. on August 26, 2020. Only four candidate forms were submitted. As there will be four openings in 2021 and only four candidates presented for election, the openings will be filled by those four candidates: Michele Compton, Dean Deverick, Jane Doyle and Bobbie Mays. Therefore, no ballots will be mailed this year. All four candidates are currently serving on the board either by prior election or by appointment to fill vacancies after director resignations. They will begin their new terms on January 1, 2021. Thank you, Bobbie, Dean, Jane and Michele for your willingness to continue serving the Windsor Gardens community.

Michele Compton

I have had the rich privilege of serving this community as a member of the board of directors for the last six years. The people with whom I have worked, including committee members, staff members and other directors, have brought to the table an abundance of life experiences as well as strong problemsolving skills. We have faced an amazing variety of challenges and unexpected events. Windsor Gardens is a complex community, and it takes time to learn the intricacies of its many facets. For that reason I would like to ask you for another term as a board member. I feel I have just begun to build a knowledge base to be of service to this community. Before serving on the board of directors I was a building representative and a zone representative. Although as president of the board I haven’t chaired any committees for the past two years, I have made every effort to attend as many committee meetings as possible in order to be as informed as possible and to be accessible to residents and to committee members.

In looking to the future sometimes our vision is blurred and sometimes what we plan gets changed. But as long as we keep the best interest of the residents of this community in sight, I think we will chart a good course and benefit from the journey together. I would again like to be a part of piloting that ship.

Dean Deverick

I am asking for your vote to serve on the Windsor Gardens board. I am running for this position for a lot of the same reasons you all live in this great place. My concerns are the rising cost of living on a fixed income, knowing that water, electrical, sewage costs and property taxes will continue to higher levels. We as a community with aging facilities have to work together to pursue and change the way we do things to reduce our costs yet maintain the quality of life in Windsor Gardens. This will be a challenge for us all.

My professional career as a project manager provided me with several major challenges that often looked hopeless, yet with time, persistence and change accomplished results. These achievements take listening to each other and being willing to compromise.

As a computing professional I have delivered a lot of change to people’s working environments, and I, for one, hate to change. I get angry, and depressed, yet have to face continued changes. I look for what new things I will get and forget about giving up my old treasures.

I spend time with my grandchildren each week. While my intent is to teach them the fun things I experienced as a child, I end up learning new ways of doing things. At night, putting my head on my pillow

Jane Doyle

Hello, I’m Jane Doyle! My husband, John, and I have resided here in Windsor Gardens for the past seven years; we love the friendliness, safety and tranquility that we find here.

I was born in Canada, raised in Grinnell, Iowa, and graduated with a BS in Home Economics Education from Iowa State University. I taught high school home economics for five years in Libertyville, Illinois, before retiring to raise our two daughters here in the metro area. During this time, I was actively involved as a volunteer with Jefferson County Schools and with Girl Scouts Mile Hi Council at the council level as a trainer, volunteer recruiter/organizer, fund raiser, public relations assistant and event planner. I was also a small business owner, operating a picture framing shop in my home.

Eventually, I went to work for Bonfils Blood Center in their communications department as their media spokesperson working to expand the reach of the blood center in the community. I introduced a paid advertising program in conjunction with Channel 4, produced TV commercials and radio spots while raising the funds to pay for the program. Additionally, I managed the recruitment of blood donors throughout the State of Colorado; produced annual reports; assisted

Bobbie Mays

I currently serve as an appointed member of the WG board. I was on the board at a Heather Ridge Golf Course Community, Fairway 16, for many years prior to moving to WG. My husband and I have lived and been active residents of WG for 11 years. I enjoy the relationships I have formed here and the many opportunities available to me for involvement in the community. My participation includes serving as president of the Windsorettes Ladies Golf League; a receptionist at the Activities Department front desk; a member of Tuesday Ladies Golf/Coffee group; an organizer and now member of the WG Drum Circle; a participant in our Art Club and student in art classes; a facilitator of bus trips for our residents to off campus events; an active member of WG Church; and a tech/leader and trainer for our movies.

During the 1990s, I volunteered as a first responder for the Trumbull Fire Dept. I also organized a youth arts and crafts program for homeschooled and isolated children near Deckers, Colorado.

feeling very tired from learning new things in life and smiling. I survived another day with at least one laugh.

Summary of life experiences:

• Born and raised in Southern Illinois, farm country.

• Graduated from Kaskaskia Junior College with applied science.

• Attempted to serve during the peak of Vietnam after losing two childhood friends to the war.

• Completed my formal education with a Master’s Certificate in Computing Project Management

• Work career of 40 years in the computing profession.

8 years as a developer, most work done in COBOL.

8 years in computing management.

24 years as a project manager.

Most of this work was in the manufacturing, finance, and procurement disciplines.

Started my work with candy bar, handheld calculator in manufacturing, telephone business computing, and 24 years with an airplane manufacturing company

This work moved me to Indiana, Massachusetts, Arizona, California, and Washington.

• Colorado move was to be a part of granddaughter and grandsons’ lives.

• Moved to Windsor Gardens in October 2017.

• Served on the WG Finance Committee and Welcoming Committee, and volunteered as a RTD host and at the Activities Desk.

• I make use of the wellness center, golf course, Colorado Room playing bridge and the outdoor pool.

in the development of the Bonfils Blood Center Foundation and, at one time, managed the program and its fund-raising efforts. I developed and produced marketing materials and brochures for the Bonfils Cord Blood program, as well.

Then, I transitioned into the real estate with my business partner, John Young. We sold lofts in LoDo for Gart Properties and then assisted in the development and condo-conversion of the Grand Lodge in Crested Butte. We participated in the planning and renovation of the 210-room hotel, the establishment of the homeowner’s association and we were totally responsible for the marketing/sales of the finished condominiums.

In 2007, we began our own real estate company representing buyers and sellers in their real estate transactions. Once here in Windsor Gardens, we added property management to our portfolio in 2015. Today, we manage several rental units for WG owners.

About four years ago, I began attending WG committee meetings and came to understand the complexities and challenges of managing this wonderful community with an aging infrastructure. Last December, I was honored to be appointed to the board of directors to fill a vacancy. The responsibility of being a board member is enormous and at times daunting to me, but I still find the challenge of problem solving and strategic planning to be extremely rewarding.

Windsor Gardens is a multimillion-dollar enterprise and, as such, we must manage our limited resources efficiently and effectively; I passionately believe that WG is not sustainable on the backs of its owners. We must find creative ways to reduce expenses and increase income to contain or reduce escalating HOA fees while continuing to maintain our facilities and enhance our community lifestyle. Please support me and the other board members in our efforts to assure our financial future.

Bobbie Mays continued from page 6

open safely and wisely. We understand that you (and many others) are anxious to resume your projects in the woodshop. I know the same is true for other groups and individuals who utilize our other wonderful facilities. I anticipate restrictions similar to what you have proposed and appreciate your willingness to be flexible with hours of operation as well. I assure you we are working on it, and plan to see sawdust on our floors again as soon as we can do so safely. When updates are available, they will be posted on the Windsor Gardens website, Facebook page, and in the Windsor Life.

Response to “Smoking on Lanais” (August 2020 issue)

Response #1

“Outside air belongs to God and the earth.” I totally agree with your statement! What I don’t understand is how smoking anything qualifies as ok with God and the earth, let alone the inhabitants of God’s earth. Yes, “the air smells worse due to pollution, gas, pets, etc.” So how does smoking anything positively contribute to those unwanted smells? I do not believe that smokers realize just how far their odors spread and how awful they are; to put it as delicately as possible, when I am walking around Windsor Gardens to get that Precious Fresh Air and much needed exercise, even with my mask on, it is like walking through a fart! It is unavoidable! It is repulsive to me! I am sure I am not alone in this.

There is also a psychological issue for those of us who were subjected to secondhand smoke by our ignorant parents while we were growing up and now suffer from breathing complications. Never having smoked, I still have had to deal with asthma and impaired lung capacity all of my life, not to mention the trauma of my father blowing his brains out when he learned at the young age of 58 that he had throat cancer from years of smoking!

Yes! The outside air belongs to God and the Earth! Please! Keep your smoke completely to yourself!

I, too, am "just a nice person" trying to "enjoy life”. Thank you.

Diane Belfour

Response #2

Last issue we heard from someone who didn’t see why smoking on the lanai was a problem. I will tell you why it is. The resident below

me smokes on her lanai. Her smoke comes up to my lanai and then to my living room. If I choose not to smoke why should I have to bear the unpleasant odor of smoke? I have not been able to use my lanai at all since the nice weather came in the spring. That doesn’t seem fair to me. I don’t really enjoy air conditioning, but I have to keep my place closed up with the AC on just to keep from being surrounded by the smell of smoke. One of the things I really looked forward to when I moved here a year ago was the use of my lanai. Little did I know, that would not be available to me.

Anne Price

Response #3

I agree with our policy of no smoking on the lanais. I really wish people would stop smoking in the buildings period. As we all share the halls and the vents, we also are sharing the smoke. Windsor Gardens is not a compound, but when we move in here, there are HOA rules and regulations. If you want to live in a place where you don’t have to worry about HOA rules or HOA dues, you need to move to a home where you are your own boss.

Debra Adams

Response #4

I for one am thankful there is a no smoking policy on the lanais. A former tenant below me smoked on the lanai and inevitability it came right up into my lanai. I never smoked, nor did anyone in my family, and it sure doesn't help with allergies. With a whole apartment to smoke in, this rule shouldn't be a big problem.

Proposed Amendment to Lanai Policy

At the August 26, 2020, WG board meeting the Policy Committee proposed that a change be made to the Lanais Policy. The proposed change will be voted on by the board at their September 25, 2020, meeting. New language is shown in ALL CAPS.

You may review current association policies in the Resource Center at the association website at www.windsorgardensdenver.org or in the association office.

Lanais Policy

Under the "Guidelines" section, 7th bullet:

Flower boxes may not be hung or affixed to the lanai railing ABOVE THE FIRST FLOOR because of the hazard of such boxes falling due to weather and wind conditions or because of the unreliability of

Notes from the General Manager

From Rebecca Zazueta, General Manager

During September I will be on medical leave to have my left hip replaced. My right hip was replaced two years ago, so this time around I know what to expect with the surgery and the recovery process. The journey leading up to this surgery has been a humbling experience, one that I did not speak so freely about one year ago. As it turns out, my story is not so different from the personal struggles that others face. There are many similar life stories that test our strength, faith, and endurance. Having the courage to talk about it has made me a stronger person.

I am now 60 pounds lighter and looking forward to improved mobility and pain-free days. I appreciate the support, friendship, empathy and prayers that I have received over the course of the last few years and in recent days. I plan to be back to work the first week of October

In my absence, please call the main office number 303-364-7485 for assistance, and they will direct you to a staff person who will be able to assist you by phone or email.

Walk-in Visitors in the Administrative Office

Beginning Tuesday, September 8, the administrative office will be open for walk-in visitors on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Residents are asked to call ahead to make appointments for visits that will take longer than 10 minutes as we are only able to accommodate 3 to 4 residents in the lobby area at a time. All other visitors will be asked to wait outside or in their cars until we have space available in the lobby. Examples of 10 minute or less visits are: buying a key, copy or fax, making a payment and getting a receipt, picking up/dropping off paperwork, fill a laundry card, picking

up a mask. Please call ahead if you are not sure how long your visit will take so we can determine how best to assist you.

FHA Recertification

The FHA recertification package was submitted to HUD for approval last month. The certification expired on August 16, 2020, which means that FHA loans and reverse mortgages cannot be processed until the certification is renewed. The delay is not unusual, and we typically experience an interruption in certification every other year when the renewal process is required. All documentation is in order and we are hopeful that we will hear from HUD soon.

Medical Clinic Proposal

The Daily Apple Clinic proposal is still under consideration. Wouldbe clinic operators and WG residents Paul Reynolds and Monica Schonteich are in the process of obtaining approval from the City of Denver zoning department to operate a medical clinic in Windsor Gardens.

Maintenance Projects

The maintenance department was very busy in August with multiple water leaks, including under floor leaks in Buildings 24, 32, 47, 50 and 84. There was a fire line leak outdoors at Building 43 and a domestic water main break outdoors between Buildings 44 and 46. There were also several water leaks inside of units including kitchen drain line breaks, shower leaks and leaks from owners leaving water on in the bathroom or kitchen.

Notes from the General Manager continued on page 11

Notes from the General Manager continued from page 10

Exterior painting of Buildings 32, 49 and 82 are complete. The crew is finishing Building 41 and working on Building 51. Soffit repairs were completed on Buildings 53, 57 and 62 where a bee colony was removed. The facia was repaired on Building 55.

A section of the restaurant kitchen floor was cleaned and painted with epoxy. The flooring project will continue, and the kitchen equipment will be cleaned thoroughly and reinstalled.

Boiler replacements are complete in Buildings 28, 37, 43 and 66. Work continues in Building 40 and Building 20 will be started next.

The new garage door for underground garage 26, Dayton Street entrance, is expected to arrive anytime now. The replacement will be one large door in place of the existing large and small door.

The underground garage project Phase 2A has restarted and approval has been received to proceed with Phase 3. Phase 2B which is the landscaped area between Buildings 82 and 84 is on hold and will require additional discussion and planning.

The roof replacement project (hail damage insurance claim) is in progress and going smoothly. The work is anticipated to be completed

early, sometime during the first week of September. Once completed, we will proceed with additional roof replacement projects. Planning for Building 13 is in progress now.

The hallway re-decorating project continues with carpet installation in Building 49 completed. Replacement of the stair carpeting in Buildings 21 and 23 is complete. The crew is now working in Building 59. The carpet order for Buildings 44 and 63 is expected to arrive soon. Building 58 will be scheduled next.

The grounds department continues maintenance on the flower beds and management of the Japanese Beetles. The brown spots in the grass are from the heat and lack of rain. The irrigation system is working well, but it has been a very hot season. Five new trees were planted, but the shrub and perennial plantings were postponed due to the heat.

COVID-19 Community Notices and Updates

Confirmed Resident COVID-19 Cases

One new COVID-19 case was reported on July 30, 2020, and is included in the summary below. No special orders were issued by the health department. There have been no additional cases reported in the month of August 2020, and there is no indication of any community transmission at this time. The association continues to monitor for patterns or outbreaks within buildings, especially on the same floor

Group Gatherings in our Facilities

Over the past month we have received various requests for guidance on holding group gatherings, specifically for clubs, building meetings and summer get-togethers. We have also received requests to open various portions of CenterPoint for group meetings and to allow larger gatherings in outdoor spaces. The following concerns were taken into consideration when evaluating how we should proceed with group gatherings:

1. The health department continues to caution the association about larger group gatherings. The larger the group and meeting frequency, the greater the risk.

2. A gathering of members from the same building can create a higher risk of an outbreak occurring within a building.

3. The grassy areas have tree roots and dips and are uneven. The association is concerned about trip hazards which could cause an injury from a fall.

Notifying the Association When You have a Positive COVID-19 Test Result

The association relies on residents to notify our office when you receive a positive COVID-19 test result. The administrative office manages the COVID-19 statistics for our community and reports the information to the health department. Only in extreme cases, such as a case that resulted in death, would the health department contact the association. We ask for your assistance in helping to keep our information as accurate as possible. This will allow us to provide

Notifying the Association of Positive Test continued on page 12

4. COVID-19 precautions, i.e. wearing masks and staying a safe distance from one another, may be relaxed by some while they are outdoors, creating a possible environment for transmission if someone is unknowingly positive in a larger group setting. In the case of current group activities, such as exercise classes, fitness center use and the recent outdoor concert, staff is managing each gathering with seat designations/spacing, signed waivers, hand sanitizer and masks being required. The spaces are also cleaned and sanitized after every use. To follow current orders and to ensure that COVID-19 precautions are implemented for resident gatherings, the following determinations have been made:

1. Outdoor gathering in the lawn areas will remain limited to no more than 10 people.

2. Buildings are discouraged from gathering for meetings or social get-togethers.

3. If a group or a building decides that a meeting or gathering is necessary, the outdoor gazebo, auditorium, and CenterPoint East will be available for reservation beginning September 14 through January 8, 2020, when facility use for groups will be revisited. Specific guidelines and precautions for room reservations can be found on page 25.

important updates to the health department and allow us to monitor for outbreaks and patterns within buildings and within the community. During regular business hours Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., please call our main number 303-364-7485 to report a positive test result. If you need to report your positive test result after hours or on the weekend, please contact Community Response at 303-364-4924. When you call to report a positive test result, you will be asked the following questions by employees who are trained in COVID-19 response:

• What day did you receive a positive test result?

• When did your symptoms start?

• What are your self-isolation instructions from your physician?

• Do you live alone or with others? If you live with others, we will ask if they have been tested, are experiencing any symptoms and if they have been told to self-quarantine by your physician.

• What symptoms are you experiencing?

• Have you had any contact with neighbors since the onset of symptoms?

• Do you participate in any activities, i.e. fitness room, exercise classes, golf, pool?

• Have any employees been in your unit since the onset of symptoms?

• Do you have someone to help you with food, trash, mail during your isolation period?

• Does the association have an emergency contact on file for you? During this same call, we will ask you to follow your self-isolation instructions closely and to minimize your movement as much as possible to reduce the possibility of transmission within the building. It is common for residents who are in self-isolation to have doctor appointments, lab work or additional testing. For this reason, it is possible that a COVIDpositive resident may need to come and go from their unit during the isolation period. If there are other occupants in the unit, we will ask that they self-quarantine and reduce their movement as well, unless you receive different instructions from your physician.

Residents with positive COVID cases are typically asked to self-isolate for 14 days; however, we are finding some variation to this. The 14 days is typically counted from the onset of symptoms, which is usually several days before the test result is received. Often, we do not hear about the case until a positive test result is received. Our dates are not always exact. We are also finding that some providers are only requiring 7-10 days of self-isolation. The isolation period for confirmed cases will be communicated to the building if the information is available.

When you notify the association of your confirmed case, your identity is protected and confidential; however, our office will notify your building, providing the floor level that you live on and the anticipated period in which you will be in self-isolation. If you participate in activities or have been in contact with specific neighbors or staff members, we will also notify those individuals of possible exposure, but your name or unit number will not be disclosed. If you decide to share your news with your neighbors in the building, please be aware that the association has no ability to control or manage the spread of this information.

If you are hospitalized, please have someone contact our office to inform us of your positive test result. If we are unable to talk to you directly, we will need to verify the information of your case with a person who has direct knowledge of your condition, i.e. spouse, partner, doctor, nurse, hospital representative, POA, or family member. If we receive information from a neighbor, we will contact the emergency contact you have on file with the association. If you need to update your emergency contact, please go to the association’s website and fill out a new emergency data sheet and return it to Community Response or drop it in the white mailbox located under the flagpole in the auditorium parking lot. Forms are also available in the fitness room lobby. If you would like to email a scanned copy of the emergency data sheet, please send it to estrock@wgamail.com

Notification Protocol for Confirmed Cases

Our notification process also changed in July. Because we are no longer considered a community with an active outbreak, we are not immediately notifying the entire community when a positive case has been reported. We will continue to notify the building with the confirmed case via a Pilera message and we will also provide notification to anyone who may have had exposure to the positive case. Beginning in September, we will post a sign on the main building entry door advising visitors of the confirmed case in the building. The community will be updated at least one a month in the Windsor Life newspaper as to the status of confirmed cases in the community, and more frequently if the protocol returns to the previous model or an active outbreak has been identified. Pilera is the main tool we use to communicate with residents during the month and in between Windsor Life issues. Please ensure that you are setup to receive these communications via email, telephone or by text. If you need assistance setting up your Pilera notifications, please contact Patricia Frawley at pfrawley@wgamail.com or 720-862-1505 and she will assist you.

Cleaning and Disinfecting Protocol

General Cleaning Services continues to clean and disinfect all high touch surfaces in each building one time per day, Monday through Friday. As of July 22, 2020, we updated our protocol to follow the recommendations from the health department and the CDC guidelines for building cleaning after a confirmed case has been reported. The cleaning and daily disinfecting services provided by General Cleaning Services meets the CDC guidelines that have been established for COVID-19 response; therefore, we will no longer use the hygienist and professional contractor to perform deep cleaning and disinfecting after a confirmed case has been reported.

WG Restaurant Update

The Request for Proposal (RFP) process for the Windsor Gardens restaurant initially closed on July 31, 2020, but was extended through the first week of August 2020. The association received one letter of interest but no actual proposals from potential lessees.

Restaurant Committee Chairperson Mike Lopez has spoken with John Michael Hill with the City of Denver Department of Economic Development. Hill said he would be surprised if anyone responded to an RFP given the status of the restaurant industry right now and the operating restrictions that are currently in place. And the Denver Post recently reported that more than half of the restaurants in Denver will be closing this year due to the overall impact of the pandemic. It is a difficult time to find investors in the restaurant industry.

Committee Chair Mike Lopez is still hopeful that these obstacles can be worked around and notes that the golf course had a record month in July while having to adapt to COVID-19 precautions.

The restaurant committee has also been consulting with a restaurateur who works for SCORE, an organization of retired business operators. He stated Windsor Gardens is unique in that it has a captive audience and will always have a strong base of business. And a majority of our community has a strong desire for a successful restaurant.

The committee is exploring various options to bring food service to Windsor Gardens, including outside caterers; the continuation of food trucks as well as renting kitchen space to food trucks; allowing nonprofits to use the kitchen area to produce meals for those in need as well as for the Windsor Gardens residents; and exploring a ghost kitchen or a cottage kitchen concept and commissaries. The committee is also brainstorming ways that the restaurant might operate outside of the typical table service model.

Over the last several months, WG maintenance crews have been cleaning and repairing the restaurant’s kitchen, bar and food serving areas. And we plan to be ready for occupancy in October this year. Progress depends on people outside our control – contractors and suppliers – to complete the work, so stay tuned.

Restaurant Committee Chair Mike Lopez said, “We can take examples for success under the current circumstances from our golf course, pool area, fitness center and office. With care and patience we will remain safe as we can through this time. The bottom line is your restaurant committee is 100% committed to getting the restaurant open as soon as possible.”

Councilwoman Sawyer: Reflections on My First Year

From Councilwoman Amanda Sawyer, District 5

It has been an extraordinary first year as your city councilwoman, and I have learned and grown in a myriad of personal and professional ways over the course of the past twelve months. No one could have expected the challenges that our City has had to face, but it has been my honor to serve you and to represent our neighborhoods on Denver City Council this year.

I am truly grateful for your support. When I was elected to office, my mission was simple: to bring the voice of the neighborhoods back to our local government. And to achieve that vision, my staff and I strive to embody four important core values: transparency, accountability, customer service and good communication. While we always have room for improvement, I hope you feel we have exemplified these values over the past year.

Here are just a few examples of the ways in which I have been working hard to represent you and help our community thrive over the past twelve months:

• I have written over forty articles, editorials, and newsletters for various news outlets, ranging from our own District 5 monthly e-newsletter to neighborhood publications to Denver media outlets. I have also attended nearly one hundred community meetings, partnering with RNOs and other community service providers to answer questions, share news and get feedback from neighbors about all the things happening in our community.

• I created www.WeAreOpenDenver.com, a website that directs local users to open, local businesses as a way of helping support Denver's small business community during the COVID-19 economic crisis.

• My first piece of legislation, a proposed charter change amendment, was unanimously referred by the council to the November 2020 ballot. If approved by the Denver voters, it will give city council confirmation power over 14 mayoral appointees, including mayoral cabinet members like the city attorney, manager of safety, director of community planning and development, police chief, fire chief and sheriff.

• I have kept my campaign promise to be more thoughtful about development in our neighborhoods. There has been only one rezoning in District 5 during my first year in office – an accessory dwelling unit in the East Colfax neighborhood. Additionally, I have worked hard to ensure that residents who live in the area affected by the East Area Plan are aware of its existence, and that they have had the opportunity to participate in its design.

• My staff and I worked in partnership with a local muralist and the Mayfair community to renovate the bus stop at East Colfax and Monaco Blvd., turning it into a piece of local artwork that the entire neighborhood can enjoy and be proud of.

The coming weeks and months are sure to bring more opportunities to represent the District 5 community through challenges and successes. To that end, we would truly appreciate you taking a few minutes to complete our second annual resident survey here at https://bit.ly/D5survey2020

Our staff looks forward to continuing to serve you and carrying your voices into city government. As always, do not ever hesitate to reach out to our office if there is anything we can do to assist you.

WE’RE HERE FOR YOU

We’re thinking of you and your loved ones as we navigate these unpredictable times together. Rest assured, our commitment to helping you thrive remains unwavering, and no question is too big or too small.

You can always reach us, and we look forward to providing guidance and support via phone, text, email, and virtual chats – whatever platform works best for you. We’re here to help, ready and equipped with a list of several additional resources for seniors. Whether you or a family member are in urgent need or just need to talk, we’re here for you.

If it matters to you – it matters to us. We’re a people company, and YOU are our people.

Please do not hesitate to reach out anytime. Call 303-696-0622 today.

Why Do Things Take So Long?

From Bill Walsh, Facilities Manager

In August we began re-roofing some of the garages. I have had resident questions about why we are replacing roofing that in some cases is only a few years old. The garages that are being re-roofed sustained hail damage from a storm on July 5, 2019. Why are we are working on it more than a year later? It has taken all this time to negotiate with the insurance company. We finally came to an agreement and were finally able to start this project.

Maintenance Matters

In all the years I have worked here I have seen a steady increase in the time it takes to get projects completed. Especially those projects that are not planned, such as those caused by a flood in a unit, unforeseen damage by Mother Nature or human fault.

We are in a time where every single task we do is regulated by red tape of some sort. It could be insurance approval, permitting or

NEW: Residents are responsible for removing their own screens this year. Windows that have screens on them will not be washed.

Please be advised that the maintenance staff will NOT be removing the bedroom screens from units this year due to COVID-19 precautions. The health and well-being of the residents and staff are of utmost importance to Windsor Gardens. Residents will be responsible to remove their bedroom window screen(s) and to reinstall them once the windows have been washed.

Lanai windows will not be washed. Residents may hire and pay for their own contractor to clean the lanai windows if they choose.

testing or requirements for engineering or mandatory wait periods. So many darn regulations. We are finding it difficult to move projects along like we did in “the old days”. A simple project can take months just to clear all the red tape hurdles. I don’t mention this to complain. I want our residents to have realistic expectations as to deadlines that are estimated for projects.

Looking forward for September we will surely get calls that hallways are either too hot or too cold. With temperatures fluctuating more than 70 degrees on some days the hallway temps will swing with the outdoor weather. Remember our hallways do not automatically adjust for temperature changes. Our systems require us to make those adjustments by hand, and a single adjustment to all buildings combined can take 20 work hours. Once winter sets in and the temps remain more stable our hallways will follow suit and be more consistently comfortable.

Until next month enjoy the summer heat.

Shred It Event Canceled Large Item Pickup

The Fight Fraud, Shred Instead event scheduled for Saturday, September 26, has been canceled due to COVID-19 precautions.

Down to Earth

From Dana Cusack, Grounds Maintenance Supervisor

A Bright Spot (or Two)!

2020 has been full of challenges for just about everyone. The grounds department has had to deal with the challenges of planting many flowers with limited people; dealing with the aftermath of the freeze in April that killed so many shrubs and trees; the winds of May that blew over trees and broke so many limbs; the recent heat wave that has really tested our reserve; and of course the COVID-19 situation we are all dealing with.

There has been a bright spot in all of this as many residents are coming outside to gather and see each other – all while social distancing of course. I’ve seen people out in the grass enjoying a music concert behind Building #47. There are six or seven gentlemen who set up their chairs on the horseshoe court pretty regularly. I’ve seen golfers practicing their swings out in the grass, groups of residents meeting under one of our beautiful shade trees and our regular dog walkers who can always be seen traversing the property. I have been pleased to see what I guess are grandchildren of a resident out in the grass

playing catch or just running around enjoying the turf. We work very hard on the turf areas every week mowing, checking and repairing sprinklers, edging and caring for the flowerbeds. It is nice to see so many of you starting to use our landscape in such positive ways! Please remember that the grassy areas have tree roots and dips and are uneven. Be careful of the potential to trip and fall.

Another thing that I think is outstanding are the food trucks that have been coming to the activities center. My favorite was the snow cones truck because it was such a hot day!

We have our new activities director Elizabeth Wilkins and Renee Jennings to thank for some fun events that get people out of their apartments if even just for a little while. They also helped the grounds crew to plant the flowers this spring, so big thanks from me!

Nobody knows how long this situation we are all dealing with will linger, but one thing is certain, we will always be able to go outside and enjoy our friends and neighbors and spend some time with mother nature and the gardens of Windsor.

Golf Shop 303-366-3133 www.emeraldgreensdenver.com

From Doug Mallon, Golf Pro

It has been a great summer for the golf course, and we hope to continue this trend for the next few months. What a July we had!! The golf course set a new record with greens fees; $35,024 was collected for the month of July. August numbers are also on a record pace. Revenue for July and August has averaged $1,000 per day. The next couple of months are going to be hot ones. Before coming out to play make sure to put on sunscreen and bring a full water bottle, a cool towel, a hat of some kind, bug spray and a snack in your bag. The heat can zap all your energy, so come prepared. We are still renting electric carts as well.

Big thanks to the staff in the golf shop for their solid effort to keep everything clean while still managing the course and to the grounds crew, Nohe and Jacob, who are keeping our course in pristine condition and the grass green.

Phoebe is back out chasing geese. The course has healed well from the damage.

Phoebe’s Rules

Random Throw

Phoebe, PK, Lilly and Sugar are out playing golf here at Emerald Greens Golf Club. They all tee off on Hole #8. PK hits his golf ball next to the pin about 3 feet away from the hole. All of a sudden a resident walks across the green and picks up PK’s golf ball, then throws it back towards PK as he is walking down the fairway. The group is standing in disbelief, how do they proceed?

A. Play the ball as it lies, where the person threw it.

B. Pick up the ball and throw it back. Onestroke penalty.

C. Place the ball back on the green at its original location. No penalty stroke.

D. Put a 2 on the score card and move on. No penalty stroke.

Community Response Updates

From Chris Scovil, Director of Community Response

Chief of Community Response. Euell Santistevan, the Chief of Community Response for six years, resigned in July 2020 to pursue other passions in his life. We are actively looking to hire another Chief. We have qualified officers in the department that may be eligible for promotion, and we are searching externally as well. An assessment process will determine who is the right fit for the position.

Bullet Shot into Townhomes. At the end of July, a person or persons unknown, shot a bullet into one of the townhomes from Alameda Avenue. The bullet traveled into one of the townhomes and broke a mirror. Denver Police believe this was a random shooting and not intended for the resident inside. The outcome of the incident could have been heartbreaking for our community, but fortunately the resident is fine, albeit shaken up.

Vehicle Theft and Break-ins. Vehicle break-ins and thefts are on the rise in Denver, and Windsor Gardens has seen an increase as well. Talking with a Denver police officer, he felt that because of the job loss in the metro area, the rise in theft might continue.

Community Response developed a spreadsheet to track vehicle theft locations, times, dates, vehicle description, etc. to see if a pattern

This situation requires a frank discussion between you and your friend about why she won’t return to her own home. You also need to discuss any terms you may have set up when she moved in. Was a specific time period discussed? Did you have a written agreement that you both signed?

Removing unwanted house guests can be complicated with eviction laws, particularly now during the pandemic. Because you voluntarily invited this person into your home, getting them out is generally a civil matter and not an issue for police intervention. If after talking with

your friend you cannot come to a mutually agreeable plan, you may have to consult an attorney about eviction in your situation. Though it might be tempting, you should not change the locks or pack up your friend’s belongings and put them out. You could be forced to let them back in if this is not handled properly.

Doing some research on the internet and talking to an attorney will guide you on your rights to get your home back to yourself. You should, however, be prepared to see the end of your friendship with this person.

The non-emergency police number is 720-913-2000, option 0, if things become heated or violent.

Leetsdale Cop Shop is available to you for other issues at 303-3290500 (call or text) or email us at leetsdalecopshop@hotmail.com. We hope to be back on property soon.

Matters of the Heart

From Paul Reynolds, FNP-C and Monica Schonteich, FNP-C

According to new CDC projections and after counting the deaths related to COVID-19, still today the leading cause of death in the USA is heart disease.

Heart disease is a broad concept that refers to a group of conditions that affect the heart. The most common heart disease in our country is coronary artery disease (CAD), the disease that affects the arteries that surround the heart. According to the CDC, one person dies every 37 seconds in the United States from CAD. Most patients with CAD may have no symptoms for many years until… sudden chest pain or shortness of breath develops while going up the stairs or playing with the grandchildren. Unfortunately, when someone with CAD starts noticing symptoms, some damage to the heart has already happened. In CAD blood cannot flow easily to the heart, and therefore the heart is not getting an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients. In severe cases, arteries can get blocked, stopping blood flow completely and leading to a myocardial infarction, aka a heart attack.

How can we prevent heart disease?

Strategies for the prevention of heart disease will be familiar to you. We have mentioned some of these in previous columns.

Diet

Excess intake of food high in simple carbohydrates and unhealthy fat can damage the lining of your arteries. Your body responds to this less smooth lining with an inflammatory response. In this process, cells sent to repair the damage create a shield over this “pseudowound”, narrowing the diameter of the artery. When blood does not travel smoothly there is a risk for clots, increasing the chance that blood cannot reach vital organs, including the heart.

Action: The consumption of fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains and beans have been proven to keep our arteries and heart healthy. What did you plant this summer in your garden? Have you checked out the WG Farmer's Market every Friday and Saturday in the auditorium parking lot?

Stress

When we are under stress the hormone cortisol can increase blood cholesterol, triglycerides, blood sugar and blood pressure. These are known risk factors for heart disease as they promote damage to the smooth lining of the arteries and the buildup of plaque, blocking the arteries.

Action: Reduce stress by practicing techniques such as deep breathing and meditation; exercising regularly; setting realistic goals, if you are a goal driven person; or listening to music. (Debussy is our favorite!)

Sleep

According to the Sleep Foundation, folks who do not sleep enough are at higher risk for cardiovascular and coronary heart disease, regardless of age, weight, smoking and exercise habits. Studies suggest that not enough hours of snooze can change how our body metabolizes sugar and increase our blood pressure while inflammatory processes are turned on causing damage to the arteries and heart.

Action: Sleep at least 7 to 8 hours per night. When we sleep, we heal.

Smoking

Research has demonstrated that smoking increases risk of heart disease and CAD. The chemicals in cigarette smoke lead to the buildup of fatty plaque in the arteries (atherosclerosis). These chemicals also affect cholesterol levels and levels of fibrinogen, a clotting material, increasing the risk of a blood clot that can lead to a heart attack.

Action: Quit smoking!

Movement

Physical activity has many benefits. It can help you to relax, or you may decide to stay active to reduce joint pain. While staying active you are also protecting your heart. Depending on the intensity of the physical activity that you do, your heart can develop collateral circulation, which is a network of alternate arteries around a blocked artery.

Action: Stay active! Daily physical activity, at least 30 minutes, is recommended for everybody.

Following a healthy diet, reducing stress, having a good night’s sleep, quitting smoking and staying active will keep you and your heart pumping and enjoying a healthier and happier life.

Be well and take good care, Paul and Monica

Community Response Updates continued from page 17

emerges. For example, a pattern of a specific area getting hit harder than other areas or certain times of day where the break-ins are more prevalent. This spreadsheet allows us to adjust our patrol strategies accordingly to try and prevent criminal behavior.

After a series of vehicle break-ins from June 22 to June 25 in Underground Parking Lot 24, our officers have caught one suspect and thwarted three other vehicle break-in attempts throughout the community.

Although we have prevented several break-in attempts, the incidents continue, and this is where we need your help. Approximately 3,500 people are living in Windsor Gardens. We only have a certain amount of officers on patrol, and a criminal is going to slip through when we move from one area to another. Please help us watch the

neighborhood and report anything suspicious. As a team, we can show criminals that Windsor Gardens is a place you do not want to be if you have devious intentions towards the community.

New Community Response Email. The Community Response department has an email address now: communityresponse@ wgamail.com. Please use the email to report covenant violations or an issue you want Community Response to investigate. Do not use this email for an emergency or to report an incident in progress or a policy violation that needs immediate verification. This email address is monitored by up to four different people and should eliminate delays when an email is sent to a single person who may be out of the office. If you have pictures or videos, please attach the files to your email as well.

WG Artist Profile

Sheri Johnson

“The many mediums used by the artist give a new life to some of the subjects in a painting,” artist Sheri Johnson says. “Portrait painting and scenery can give a timeless record of the person or setting."

Sheri says the eyes of all people allow us a look into their soul and at times their thoughts as well as their past and their future. And she paints young children with an awe-inspired look at their play and the zest for life.

“Realism is often used in portrait painting," she says, "while some other settings call for the use of abstract or other forms as a depiction of what is seen and what art lovers appreciate."

In her work Sheri feels pastels and the other mediums are a joy to work with and give off a brighter color and contrast.

Room Reservations for Community Center Facilities

The health department has issued a caution to the association about large group gatherings. The larger the group and frequency of meetings, the greater the risk. To protect the health and safety of our community and staff, we are implementing new and temporary guidelines and precautions for room reservations in effect from September 14, 2020, through January 8, 2021.

COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS & REGULATIONS

• Buildings are discouraged from gathering for meetings or social get-togethers. Other activity and social group gatherings should be kept to a minimum. Alternatives to in-person meetings should be considered before proceeding with group reservations.

• If a group or building decide that a meeting or gathering is necessary, the outdoor gazebo, auditorium, and CenterPoint East will be available for reservations beginning September 14, 2020, through January 8, 2021, when facility use for groups will be revisited.

• Rooms are available for reservation and use by RESIDENT-ONLY groups who are able to hold a meeting and follow COVID-19 precautions. Please note that some resident groups are not conducive under the current guidelines and precautions. The activities department has the authority to determine what groups are eligible for reservations and may deny any reservation request at their discretion.

• All meeting or gatherings must be held during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

• Room use is limited to two hours per reservation.

• Scheduled WG events and classes take precedence over group reservations.

• Reservations will be limited to one reservation per month, per group, and will be based on room availability and cleaning schedules.

• No A/V equipment will be available (microphone, sound system, laptop, projector, etc.).

• No food is allowed at this time, except for in the gazebo area. This precaution may be re-evaluated at a later date.

• Group sizes for each space will be limited as follows:

1. Gazebo: Every other table may be occupied by one person or up to 4 people from the same household. Maximum occupancy is approximately 9-25.

Masks are also required for groups who meet outside in the gazebo area and are unable to maintain a safe distance (at least 6 feet) from others that are not part of their household. Masks are not required while eating in the gazebo area.

Please be aware that the association’s staff has been instructed to advise all participants that masks must be worn and to monitor for compliance. If you are approached by a staff member and asked to put on your mask or to wear it properly, we ask for your support and compliance. Voluntary compliance is critical for ensuring that the facilities remain open and reservations can continue to be offered.

• Participants must maintain a safe distance (at least 6 feet) from others that are not part of their household. Do not congregate as groups before, during or after the gathering.

• PUBLIC RESTROOMS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR USE.

• No facilities are available for washing hands. We advise you to bring your own hand sanitizer, as it might not be available in the space you are meeting.

• A one-time waiver is required to participate in a club/group meeting or event.

• No handshakes, high-fives or physical contact with others at any time.

• Stay home if you are feeling sick or awaiting test results. It is imperative that you do not meet with others until you are healthy!

Our highest priority continues to be the health and safety of our residents and staff. Please proceed cautiously and abide by the regulations so we may continue opening our facilities. Groups who do not abide by these regulations will forfeit the ability to set future reservations.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

Serenity in My Garden by Liz Gibbons

As the morning sun beats down on me as I pull the weeds crowding in on my basil and rosemary plants, I welcome the tranquility that I begin to feel. So that I could arrive here fairly early I had a simple breakfast of fresh mango, raspberries and blackberries. So delicious and so easy to prepare. I had pushed myself to come over to the garden. I was not feeling very energetic and really wanted to relax in my condo. But that is often how I feel. Once I am working in my garden a sense of contentment and renewed energy comes over me. I reflect on how connected I feel to the earth. So much of humanity has lost contact with nature. The simple life of many prior generations who lived in harmony with our earth home is rare in these modern times.

I marvel at nature’s abundance. The tomato plants are loaded with small green tomatoes. I anticipate the day when I will be able to bite into their juicy goodness. Not much can beat the taste of a fresh ripe tomato just off the vine. The green beans are in bloom. The pepper plants are budding and one, a variety of pepper I have never grown before called sweet banana because of its pepper’s shape and color, has seven nearly ripe peppers. I wonder if they will taste any different than bell peppers. The sprawling zucchini plants are beginning to flower. Radishes beckon

to be pulled. Beets, carrots, and cucumbers are developing nicely. I eagerly look to see if some bok choy seeds I had to replant a few days ago have stirred from their dormancy, but so far no shoots appear. I appreciate the bright yellow flowers in all four corners of my neighbor’s garden. They add a bright note to my morning, and the very tall sunflowers in another garden send their happy vibes. My hands smooth the soil as I plant a few parsley seeds hoping the heat will not be hard on them.

As I water my garden a yellow butterfly flutters by followed by several bees. I am happy to see some bees. I notice a rabbit resting in the shade cast by my neighbor’s garden. S/he lies motionless. I sense the rabbit is okay and is just getting out of the hot sun. S/ he eyes me warily. As I water my plants I send a cooling spray in its direction. S/he jumps back a bit but then resumes a restful position in the shade. I ask the rabbit if it was the critter who chewed on one of my pepper plants causing its demise. I get no answer.

I feel very grateful to have a garden plot. It helps keep me centered in these days of chaos and also offers human contact with others with whom I get to chat as they tend their gardens.

Off the Grid by Pam Jundt

When I moved into my one-bedroom condo in Windsor Gardens last November I upsized – significantly. Before I moved, I lived for 18 months in a 7’ x 13’ travel trailer. Before that, I had to downsize, significantly, from the four-bedroom suburban house I lived in for 25 years with my late husband and our two kids. After countless trips to the donation station, numerous ads on Craigslist, and one garage sale, I had condensed my life to 91 square feet. Finally, on a sunny late winter day I tootled off in my big truck pulling my little trailer, ready to explore the country, happy to let someone else worry about shoveling, mowing, raking and all the other headaches that come with home ownership.

Ahh, the simple life … or so I thought. My original plan was to live mostly off-grid on public lands – beautiful campsites for free. How hard could it be? After all, I had a fully self-contained trailer, a solar panel and a 2200 watt generator. I shake my head now at my naiveté. What I discovered was that living off-grid in a small trailer is so much more complicated than the YouTube videos led me to believe. Fun yes, simple no.

When I dispensed camping, I had to constantly monitor my holding tanks, batteries, water usage, propane tanks and how much trash I was throwing away. Since I had a diminutive RV the holding tanks were correspondingly petite. Gray water is not too difficult to dispose of, but the black tank was another matter. I was either looking for dump stations or going behind a tree.

Power was another issue. I knew I could damage my batteries if I let them get too low. So I was always neurotically watching the volt meter. Most mornings I put out my portable solar panel, adjusting it

every few hours to maximize production. If it was cloudy, then I ran my generator. At least I always had enough power to turn on lights and more importantly charge my tablet so I could watch movies.

Getting fresh water was yet another concern. The worse time I had with this was when a friend and I decided to stay deep in the Shoshone National Forest in Wyoming. We parked our trailers in a high alpine meadow overlooking a breathtaking mountain range. We were thirty minutes from a cell signal and forty minutes from the closest town. The only water around was scummy pond water I wouldn’t even let my dogs drink. Fortunately, the little town of Meeteetse had a visitor’s center. The lovely women that worked there let me fill my five-gallon water jugs in their kitchen. They even helped carry them to the truck. They are a wonderful example of the many beautiful people I met on the road.

After several months of primitive camping on public lands, I discovered the joys of full hook-up RV parks. The sites weren’t free and the scenery wasn’t as spectacular. But oh was life simpler. I could use my microwave, the air conditioner, take long showers and leave the lights on. Heaven.

I gave up RVing after my grandson was born. Even though life on the road was fun, I decided to stop being a wanderer to become a grammy. I haven’t regretted my decision. Besides I still have my trailer. I think I’ll escape the heat and head to mountains for a couple of weeks. And when I get back I will no doubt have a new appreciation for the simplicity of a flush toilet.

My Make-Believe Home in the Hills by Marilynn Reeves

If you are weary of all the noise and confusion Of the traffic and the crowds in the city, All the hustle and bustle

Getting you nowhere, it seems, Come with me to my make-believe Home in the hills.

It’s the place where I go in my dreams.

We’ll bypass the maddening crowd of the highways And take the back roads up to the mountains. We’ll just take our time, Meandering through the forested byways Till we come to our destination.

It’s just a simple little cabin

With a fireplace and an old-time, pot-bellied stove, Well-worn sofas with overstuffed cushions. There’s a small table out in the kitchen Where we can sit and look out the window At the little stream that flows down below.

I’ll fix a big pot of homemade soup, And serve you some nice crusty bread. Perhaps with a chunk of sharp cheddar And plenty of butter to spread.

Then we’ll go outside and sit on the stoop, Watch the sun kissing the mountaintop As it slowly retreats to the west. A bright, radiant sunset Is one of the things I love best.

You can tell me your troubles if you’d care to, Or simply allow them to drift away … Into the air till they’re no longer with you As they fade into the darkening sky.

Then for a change of pace, we’ll go back inside and relax in front of the fireplace. We’ll watch the bright flames dance as we sit Sipping mugs of hot chocolate, And toasting fat marshmallows on sticks.

But once the fire has burned down low We will know that it’s time to go Up the steps to get ready for bed. The day will be done when the hour has come To rest our weary heads.

We’ll slip between my grandmother’s quilts, And then, with arms around each other, We’ll snuggle up nice as can be Cozy and warm together. And we’ll soon fall asleep

To the soft, lulling music of Nature.

In the morning, I’ll fry up some eggs and some bacon. And, as we slowly awaken to the promise of a brand new day, We’ll smile as we drink down The last of our coffee, Then we’ll get ready to be on our way.

Out of doors once again, We’ll watch as the morning sun Paints the mountaintops pink and gold. And once the light of day takes hold, We’ll hike up to the beaver pond.

Bring along your fishing pole! We’ll follow the stream up the hill To the pond where you can fill your creel With all the fish you can catch from the pool.

Just rest and relax, stay as long as you like, And when you’re ready to go, Take my best wishes along with you That life will get better somehow.

Come back any time, my dear friend. We’ll share harmony and peace once again. Escape the life of exhausting complicity, Come, enjoy the life of simplicity.

I offer comfort food for your body, The comfort of love for your soul. And a good night’s sleep in the cool mountain air. Such things can help you feel whole.

Nature will act as a healing balm

When you come back again and again To seek out the calm

Of my make-believe home in the hills.
