Stewpot Stewards auction art for charity By Sujata Dand Thirteen-year-old Olivia Fawkes loves music and art. In her stunning self-portrait, you see her in silhouette playing a flute as the day turns into night. “I’m kind of excited about showing it,” she said shyly. “I also want to keep it.” This is Olivia’s second year participating in the art show for The Stewpot. Her painting will be auctioned off along with other one-of-a-kind works by The Stewpot Stewards. The proceeds benefit The Stewpot’s Art Program. The Stewpot has been around for more than 40 years and includes a wide range of social services for adults and children who are homeless or at-risk. “I wouldn’t really think about what it means to be homeless if I hadn’t come here and seen what it really is like,” Olivia explained. Olivia has participated in the Stewpot Stewards program for five years. The Lake Highlands teen has helped put together survival kits, organized lemonade stands

WingSpan presents compelling reading By Shari Goldstein Stern “I’m 80 years old. I find that unforgivable and suddenly it’s a millennium and I stink of the past century, but what can I do?” said Barbara Bierbrier, flummoxed, as Rose in WingSpan Theatre Company’s upcoming “Rose” at the Bath House Cultural Center. This production celebrates WingSpan’s 20th season. Bierbrier is a busy Dallas actress who will entertain with a staged, tour de force one-woman reading of playwright Martin Sherman’s. The staged reading runs March 31 and April 1. Sherman (an American) is an award-winning, Pulitzer-Prize nominee whose 20 plays have been produced in 55 countries. This reading’s theme is especially timely. According to Susan Sargeant, producing artistic director, founder of
WingSpan Theatre Company and “Rose” producer: “Sherman’s works dramatize outsiders dealing with the marginalization of minorities whether gay, female, foreign, disabled, different religions, class of color. Sherman put himself on the map in 1979 with his play ‘Bent,’ which explores the persecution of homosexuals during the Holocaust.” The highly-esteemed René Moreno will direct. Bierbrier said she is in awe of Rose. “She survived so much in her life, but she never gave up. She never had the opportunity to go to school, but could read in three languages: Yiddish, Russian and English. And through all her hardships she never lost her sense of humor or her zest for life.” “Rose is a survivor. Her life began in a tiny Russian village, where she lived in Warsaw’s ghettos. A ship

Animal Matters
Choosing a boarding facility takes a watchful eye By Dr. Beth Leermakers As summer vacations approach, you may be thinking about where to leave your pets while you travel. There are many boarding facilities in Dallas — some better than others. As a rescue volunteer, I often drop off shelter dogs at boarding facilities. One boarding facility’s receptionist tried to force my scared rescue puppy into a play area with several much bigger dogs. I quickly stopped him, requesting he put the puppy in a kennel and let him settle in before introducing him to the other dogs. After witnessing that thoughtless, potentially dangerous behavior, I picked up the pup much sooner than originally planned. The wonderful family who adopted Tucker, one of my favorite foster dogs, recently shared this unpleasant boarding experience: “They put the dogs in kennels with an opening to an outdoor area. When I dropped Tucker off, they asked me to put him in a kennel. To him it probably looked like the pound all over again. The look he gave me broke my heart. He thought I was abandoning him. When we came back to pick him up, Tucker was pooping blood. We rushed him to the vet, and she said he was fine; dogs can do that when they’re stressed. We will never take him back there. We found a local place he likes. We take him there to board or for doggie daycare. He loves to play there.”

Play areas for dogs should be organized by size, as well as temperament and energy level. While the first boarding facility may not have been unsafe, it wasn’t the right facility for Tucker. Since your dog, cat or bird can’t tell you what happened while you were away, you have to look for signs of distress. If your pet is the stoic type who doesn’t show you she’s unhappy, how can you determine whether a boarding facility is safe and

Letter from the Board
Meet the new Dallas By Bronwen Roberts For nearly 30 years, I’ve watched Dallas change — slowly at times, for better or for worse. Some changes I’ve lamented (bye-bye Casa Linda Theater). Some I’ve celebrated (hello Arts District). Others I lamented and then celebrated. It’s those changes — the ones that had to win me over — that I find particularly noteworthy here. Take the Santa Fe Trail, for instance. Before it was used for recreation, it was a functioning railroad that ran behind my childhood home. I fell asleep at night hearing the train whistle against the reassuring rumble of railcars. When the train was scrapped, the tracks themselves remained for many years. Secret wildflower gardens sprung up between the ballast, and I’d walk there for fun or take friends to “explore” the industrial ruin. When construction began on the trail, I felt they were violating my sanctuary. Men with drills and hammers were disrupting the calm. “Let my railroad decay in peace!” I thought. Of course, when the trail was finished, it was instantly popular among neighbors, and not just the ones on my street. The trail links several neighborhoods from Deep Ellum all the way to White Rock Lake, so the people using it come from a wider community. And once I discovered that I no longer needed to bike on busy streets or overgrown fields of weeds to get from my house to the lake, I was sold. Thank you, Dallas Park and Recreation. (R.I.P. little railroad.) Or let’s look at downtown Dallas. When I was a kid, downtown was not a place anyone went unless they had a parking ticket or a corporate job. Aside from the occasional trip to the Dallas Museum of Art or the Nasher Sculpture Center, I had more or less written off downtown as unpleasant — even dangerous. That is, until several years ago. Along with the new arts
district came investment in retail, hospitality, food and even parks. Klyde Warren Park has become one of the area’s biggest assets, in addition to great restaurants nearby, at One Arts Plaza or the evolving farmers market area. Downtown still has a way to go before it becomes a truly hopping destination, but recent improvements have made it genuinely enjoyable. And lets not forget the other side of the river. In the ‘90s and early 2000s, west of downtown was an urban wasteland. The Trinity River Corridor Project, however, brought us the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, which has in turn brought new development in places I never thought I would go. Now springing up are new shopping centers like Sylvan Thirty and restaurant and business incubators like Trinity Groves. These brand new retail constructions were initially giant turn-offs to me. Sylvan Thirty blocked the view from the Belmont Hotel, and Trinity Groves seemed like a huge feeding trough in the middle of bail-bond heaven. Both seemed too contrived, too corporate, out-of-place. Only after trying (and liking) several of the businesses and enjoying a walk along the bridge did I begin to warm up to the concept. Now, I am actually looking forward to visiting new storefronts which are continuously popping up along Singleton Avenue. Not only do these places add significant convenience for people living in Oak Cliff, they have turned a relatively underdeveloped part of west Dallas into a thriving and diverse destination. The bridge was worth it. Countless other changes have altered the face of Dallas, more than I could go into here. Suffice it to say that I’m impressed with recent progress. Though I may never be fully satisfied with every new development (here’s hoping construction on I-30 will win me over, soon), you know something is good when you can’t help but like it, pimples and all.

ALONG THE GREEN TRAIL
‘Baby, it’s warm outside’ By Naïma Jeannette @naimajeannette
We made it through winter! Ok, Dallas winter isn’t really much to write home about, but we survived without a crazy ice storm. This year was on the other side of the cold and ice Naïma Jeannette spectrum, and this winter season (20162017) was the warmest Dallas winter on record of 119 past years. Spring is here and more questionable weather is upon us. On the first day of spring, March 20, we hit a record high of 92 degrees. Yikes. The average high for March is 69 degrees with the average low at 42 degrees. Luckily, rain is in our forecast for a cool down, and we need some rain. What will the rest of spring be for us? What about summer? The Old Farmers Almanac is forecasting another hot dry summer and scientists seem to be in agreement. Spring droughts have already been causing devastating fires in the panhandle region of Texas, and if it stays dry, we are in for a long fire season over the entire state. With the current beautiful weather of spring, so many events are happening over the next few weeks that we need to take a moment to highlight some of them. Whether you’re interested in trying to reduce our impact on the environment or just want to have some fun outside, these events are the perfect way to get involved in improving our city and a chance at lessening our climate impact. • March 25: Dallas Arboretum is hosting the Wild Weather Weekend with meteorologist Colleen Coyle. 11-1p.m. Dallasarboretum.org • March 27: Dallas Innovation Alliance is hosting their Living Lab Launch Party, learn about the new technologies and what is coming next, and enjoy some great conversations and refreshments!

Boarding cont'd from page 1
Young Cubs will celebrate with Old Style By David Mullen As I prepared to write my National League predictions, I blindly reached into my bag of various pens and pencils — most with business names on them — and discovered what might be an omen for the 2017 season. Out came a pencil with the Chicago Cubs logo on it. Last time I had such a premonition was in spring 1995. I heard a racket in my backyard and went outside to find a cardinal and a blue jay having a tussle. That’s it! St. Louis Cardinals and Toronto Blue Jays in the World Series. Of course, it was the Atlanta Braves and the Cleveland Indians in the 1995 Fall Classic. Last year in this column, I did pick the Cubs to win it all over the Texas Rangers. The Rangers imploded in the playoffs again, and the Cubs were the darling World Champions of baseball. Can they do it again? Yes. The Cubs will win the NL Central, but it is not going to be as easy as last year. Their bullpen won’t have Aroldis Chapman for the stretch run and playoffs as they did last year. Their plan is to close games with the two-headed monster of Wade Davis and Koji Uehara. The top four starters (Jake Arrieta, Kyle Hendricks, Jon Lester and John Lackey) are rock solid, each averaging nearly one strikeout per inning. If Kyle Schwarber can play a full season, he will more than make up for his sketchy defense in left field with his powerful stroke. And they have a wizard of a manager in Joe Maddon. As always, the Cardinals will breath down the necks of their rivals to the north. But their starters Adam Wainwright and Mike Leake must keep their ERAs from going north of the 4.00 mark. All eyes are on Andrew McCutchen as the Pittsburgh Pirates look for him to play right field and return to his MVP form. The Pirates could be 10 games better (or 10 games worse) than last year. The Milwaukee Brewers are hoping that first baseman Eric Thames — who returns to the big leagues after playing three years in South Korea — becomes the next Cecil Fielder. Cincinnati Reds

Kris Bryant of the Chicago Cubs hopes to repeat his MVP season. fans have Joey Votto to root for and not much else. The lack of quality starting pitching keeps them from contending. What is it with the Washington Nationals? On paper, they look unbeatable. Then they proceed to beat themselves. Bryce Harper needs to bounce back to regain star status. Stars don’t hit .243 in a season. The New York Mets need to stop reading their press clippings and play as a team. The key will be keeping their young arms healthy. This could be a big year for Yoenis Cespedes, who is now ready to reach MVP status. After all, he will have the New York press behind him. Hope he doesn’t read the press clippings. No team suffered a worse setback than the Miami Marlins, who lost ace pitcher Jose Fernandez to a September boating accident. His memory could rally a team that possesses the best hitting outfield in the NL. The good news in Philadelphia is that the young Phillies are getting better, but still a couple of years away from being a contender. The success of the Braves — which unveils SunTrust Park in the northernmost part of Atlanta in April — bank on 23-yearold SS Dansby Swanson shining and OF Matt Kemp being trusted. The NL’s best rivalry (sorry Chicago and St. Louis) is the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants and they should battle all season long. The
Dodgers have the hammer in Highland Park’s Clayton Kershaw. A lot rides on the demeanor of Yasiel Puig. Is he going to be instant offense or just an often Instagram? The Giants — a team capable of long scoring droughts — are still solid and play in expansive pitcher’s park. The NL West could go down to the final weekend. The Colorado Rockies are the most intriguing team in the NL. They can flat-out hit. Irving’s Trevor Story returns from an injury that halted a potential Rookie of the Year season. He hit 27 homers in 97 games. They signed former Ranger Ian Desmond in the off-season only to lose him in spring training to a broken hand. New manager Bud Black will try to convince his pitching staff that Coors Field is just another ballpark. The Arizona Diamondbacks can’t field, and don’t have enough pitching to overcome that deficit. The Padres of San Diego can’t hit. For fans, it will be time to hit the beach. The Dodgers will beat the Mets in the Wild Card game. The Cubs, Giants, Dodgers and Nationals will compete for the National League championship, and once again the Cubs will prevail. Their youth and the game acumen will take them to their second consecutive World Series. Good thing that pencils — even Cubs pencils — come with erasers.
right for your pet — hopefully before you drop her off? PetMD recommends looking for these eight signs of a good boarding facility: Facility tours offered. Inspecting the boarding facility is important. The staff should be proud of their facility and willing to show you where your pet will be staying. Asking Tucker’s family to put him in his kennel was a good sign — it showed they didn’t have anything to hide. Keep in mind that, even in wonderful facilities, there will be a lot of dogs barking, so don’t judge based on the noise level. Drop by unannounced and ask for a tour to experience what the place is like on a daily basis. “If they aren’t happy to show you the facilities, no matter how many good reviews they have, I wouldn’t leave my pet there,” said Carmen Rustenbeck, executive director and founder of the International Boarding and Pet Services Association (IBPSA), which provides education and certification programs. Pleasant (or at least neutral) smell. Accidents happen, but there’s no reason for the boarding place to smell unpleasant. Even if it looks clean, ask what cleaning products they use to be sure they’re pet-friendly. Require vaccination paperwork. If they don’t ask for proof of vaccinations from every guest, your fur baby is at risk for catching a potentially serious illness. Emergency plan. The staff should be able to give you a detailed emergency plan that’s species-specific and locationspecific. If a tornado destroys the roof, how will they evacuate the parrots and the poodles? Ask whether a staff member is onsite 24/7. What happens if there’s an emergency at 2 a.m. and there’s no one on the premises? Trained staff. The pet boarding industry is largely unregulated, so staff training isn’t required. You’re looking for the exceptional places that train all their staff — from the receptionist to the caregivers. The receptionist who was planning to put a scared puppy with a bunch of bigger dogs clearly hadn’t received training in safe dog handling. The consequences of an untrained staff can be life-threatening. Play groups divided by size and temperament or energy level. Your senior 70-pound lab may not be happy with younger, rowdier big dogs. Be wary of play groups consisting of 25 dogs of all ages and sizes in a too-small room, without adequate supervision. That’s a recipe for disaster. Adequate outdoor areas. Outdoor exercise yards should be clean with a high, double-fence system and plenty of shade and fresh water. If your dog is a fence climber or escape artist, warn the staff. Provide a report card. The staff should be able to tell you — at least verbally if not in writing — how your pet did. Did she eat well? How did he do in his play group? Be sure to ask about breed restrictions. Some boarding facilities won’t accept pit bulls or other “aggressive” breeds, or they won’t allow them to participate in play groups. Other facilities require a behavior or temperament evaluation before allowing all dogs to play with other (nonfamily-member) dogs. The latter, preferable approach assesses dogs based on their behavior, not their appearance. By choosing the right boarding facility, you can relax while you’re away from your pets, knowing they’re in capable hands. Happy travels!

Sp tlight FC DALLAS FOUNDATION
Disadvantaged kids are becoming healthier and more active using new soccer fields and free programs.
By Sally Blanton
ages, I feel such joy. Aside from our field development program, we have a Special Olympics team that competes at home and away against another Major League Soccer team. This program is about inclusion, enjoying the sport that so many love and living that active lifestyle. I have cried every match — especially those at home when I see the team feed off the excitement of the fans, the staff and the professional team that are rallied around them. Our youth club is involved in the team as well and they are engaged at such a young age with this population of the community that they wouldn’t know otherwise. It is a heartwarming encounter every time.
sallyblanton455@gmail.com Each week, White Rock Lake Weekly will feature a charity that is doing remarkable work in Dallas, a city known for philanthropy and generosity.

MOVIE TRAILER
Well engineered ‘T2 Trainspotting’ spot on sequel By Chic DiCiccio It’s rare to see an outpouring of support for a sequel starring degenerate Scottish junkies, but that’s exactly what has happened with “T2 Trainspotting.” Director Danny Boyle has successfully brought back the main cast, and while this doesn’t quite reach the subversive depths of the 1996 original, it’s an effective look at life for disaffected 1990s Gen Xers that don’t quite know what to do with themselves in their 40s. It helps that “T2 Trainspotting” works in more comedy, albeit severely twisted, than the original. There’s also a purposeful attempt at nostalgia, complete with clips from the first film and a few scenes that are flat out up-to-date copies. Those tiny moments are far more emotionally impactful than a movie about heroin addicts could ever deserve to be. The movie begins with recovered junkie Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor) returning to Edinburgh after spending 20 years in Amsterdam. Spud (Ewen Bremner) is still struggling with heroin addiction, and he’s quite happy to see Mark as he left him 4,000 pounds of the money he stole at the end of the first movie. On the other end of the “nice to see you” spectrum is Simon (Jonny Lee Miller), a guy still neck deep in filth using his

Ewen Bremner, Ewan McGregor, Jonny Lee Miller and Robert Carlyle star in “T2 Trainspotting.” girlfriend, Veronika (Anjela Nedyalkova), as a pawn in some extremely seedy blackmail schemes. Simon hasn’t forgiven Mark for ripping the gang off and their initial interaction is a hilarious fight scene that could only be staged by the genius of Danny Boyle. Of course, “T2” wouldn’t be complete without Begbie (Robert Carlyle), who begins the film in prison. Explaining how he gets out would ruin some insanely clever writing, but his appearance in the free world causes even more trouble for Mark since all Begbie wants to do is kill him for his betrayal. “T2 Trainspotting” should be a disaster. There’s really no reason for a sequel to a 21-year-old movie whose success was as much a product of the time it was made as the people who
Rose cont'd from page 1 all of them. While her past never leaves her, she’s living very much in the present, and adapting and adjusting to whatever is happening at any given time. She’s very outspoken about her relationships and provides some background that people are not accustomed to hearing from an 80-year-old woman,” Bierbrier said. “I have a good time taking the journey with her and jumping back and forth from one period in her life to another.” Bierbrier said this play tells the history of the 20th century — the good and the bad — through the life of one woman. She added, “Although Rose tells the story of a Jewish woman, much of it could be applied to any group of
made it. It was the launching pad for now-Oscar winner Boyle and whether the mass public knows it or not, they know who Ewan McGregor is because of it. Boyle and screenwriter John Hodge have created a movie that seems like logical steps for each of these now-beloved characters. It’s as much of a coming to terms with age movie as it is a dark comedy. When Kelly Macdonald shows up as an attorney, fans of the original should only nod their heads in approval while “makes sense” bounces around in their heads. As one would expect, the four main actors are fantastic and slip right back into the roles that made them famous. Unfortunately for Robert Carlyle, he is so fantastic as a sociopathic criminal that he’s been typecast as lunatics ever
immigrants, or people looking for a safe place to make a new life, no matter what nationality or religion they may be. I think it sends a strong message to a new generation about preventing history from repeating itself.” Bierbrier grew up in Detroit during World War II. She attended Wayne University and then Pasadena Playhouse in California. She married and moved to Montreal, where she found a lack of English speaking theater because most of the population was French. For a long time, she performed in church and synagogue shows and attended the Montreal branch of Actor’s Studio.

Yes, his Begbie is still as wheels off as ever, but there is some humanity for him here (but not much) and Carlyle has one moment of clarity that should bring tears from any audience. If a dark sitcom needs two actors from the United Kingdom, they’d do well if they cast Ewan McGregor and Jonny Lee Miller. Even though they share the most unfortunate and sad scene in the entire movie, the pairing is comedic brilliance. Some of their dialogue is immediately quotable and it seems like they are having a blast playing scumbags after years of being “good guys.” The heart and soul of “T2” is Ewen Bremner, who plays the only character to undergo significant change. Bremner is heartbreakingly good and elicits the right amount of pity and there is legitimate joy by the time his tale has been told. He doesn’t necessarily outshine his cast mates as much as he has the juiciest role in the film. It’s fairly mind-blowing that Boyle, Hodge and the cast pulled this off as well as they have. “T2 Trainspotting” feels new and not a cash-grab rehashing, but purposefully nostalgic at the same time. It’s so well done that once it’s over, spending another two hours with these lunatics doesn’t seem like a bad idea at all.

‘California, here we come’ My last story was about the 1953 tornado that hit downtown Waco. School was cancelled, so, as planned, three of us headed out to seek our fortune in California. Get the picture of the difference in times then and now. We just told our parents we had jobs waiting in logging camps in Northern California and Oregon. We thought we did, but I will get to that. I was joined by my Baylor roommate from Pecos, “Pecos” Bill Patterson. Dean Woodruff, our Aggie buddy who grew up in Highland Park and was punter on the A&M football team, joined us. Dean had the 1951 Ford, which we loaded with duffel bags and sleeping rolls. Dean and I picked Bill up in Pecos and off we went. To save what little money we had, we slept in roadside parks and under bridges. Our first adventure was when we got to the Grand Canyon. Here we splurged and got a room. Early the next morning, we walked out on the
edge of the canyon near Bright Angel Lodge. We decided to just stroll down to the bottom, not asking anyone how far it might be. It was 10 miles. That afternoon, we reached the bottom and enjoyed a swim in the muddy Colorado River. People we talked to couldn’t believe we had walked it and planned to walk out before dark. They all had guides and mules. On the way out, my legs gave out and I hitched a ride with a passing mule train for the last mile. In Las Vegas, we wandered into a casino at the Pioneer Club and were escorted out for being under-dressed and underage. The bouncer was as big as all three of us. We crossed Nevada and Donner Pass in the snow, and later got our first view of the Pacific Ocean. Sure enough, no jobs in the logging camps because of the weeks of rain. We made a few calls and started working our way south through Napa where the wine country was just getting started. Dean and I got a three-day job as store

We had just enough money to buy some gas at the ridiculous price of 40 cents a gallon, and ended up in south of San Francisco in Menlo Park. We all got jobs working for Bekins Van Lines as helpers on moving vans all summer. Though we were not union members, we were extra help when needed (which was most of the time) at $7.50 per hour. I made enough to help big time with my school cost for the next year, plus I bought an old 1933 Plymouth coupe for $45 and drove it to work all summer. At the end of the summer, I sold it for $50. I had become an entrepreneur. I had also bulked up, gaining 30 pounds toting furniture
Your Stars this Week by Stella Wilder
The coming week will require of all individuals a greater level of flexibility and understanding than most are used to. Indeed, in some cases (and perhaps unfortunately), this will go very much against the grain. There are always some who are less tolerant than most, who insist that others fall into line and do what is expected, acceptable, and "normal" — and these individuals are likely to have a hard time of it this week. It's not that they will be significantly limited in what they can do; rather, there may be a kind of stigma attached to a rigid world view that doesn't account for the differences in people and in the way they live. Those who can accept other people for who they are — and how they live — are likely to rise to ascendancy, at least for a short time. Those who are on the fence, who instinctively yearn for greater connection with others without knowing precisely how to make it happen, can be influenced one way or another, but those who let their hearts lead the way are almost sure to find themselves in a win-win situation all week long. ARIES (March 21-April 4) You may have to suffer a certain embarrassment early in the week in order to stake your claim to something valuable later on. (April 5-April 19) – It's time for you to grant someone three wishes — and everyone knows what the first should be. The
subsequent two can be more freely chosen. TAURUS (April 20-May 5) You'll have the chance to stand up against someone who is trying to force you into a corner. He or she doesn't appreciate what is possible. (May 6-May 20) – You recognize that certain things are immutable, but where there is room for change, it must be addressed as effectively as possible. GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You will want to take care of yourself throughout the week, ensuring that you steer clear of anything that may become a genuine threat. (June 7-June 20) – You may not be able to remain silent when faced with certain affronts or challenges. You may actually inspire others with your words and actions. CANCER (June 21-July 7) You've been patient for quite a while, but you cannot remain passive any longer. The time has come to fight back. (July 8-July 22) – You may be able to get others to realize just what they've done — and that's the first step to reversing certain negative trends that have been forming. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) You can expect the competition to be rather fierce, but you have the right allies in place to help you as you face a primary rival.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) It's a good week for you to reach out to someone who has been working against you in the past. Much can happen if you start working together.

On one day at noon, we stopped our moving van off the highway near Moffett Field, a U.S. Navy training base. As we ate our sack lunches, we watched Panther Jets shooting landings training for action in the Korean War. I was already hooked with plans to become a pilot after college.

(Dec. 8-Dec. 21) – You may realize that something you've been doing for quite some time is actually bad for you. Jump at the opportunity to break this pattern! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) Something you want is in someone else's possession, and you may have to accept that it's simply not your turn yet. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) – You are receiving many hints about what lies ahead, but a clearer picture can only materialize if you come out of hiding. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) Issues of power — and how to use it — will be in the forefront all week long. You may want to take a more soft-spoken approach for a bit. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) – You've been receiving up-to-date news, but you still feel as though you don't know everything you should know. Investigate further on your own.

candace@candysdirt.com Do you know A. Hays Town and love a Louisiana-style home? Over at CandysDirt. com, we love him. For Candace Evans more than 65 years, A. Hays Town built houses and buildings that were heavily influenced by the Spanish, French and Creole history of Louisiana. More than 1,000 homes in Louisiana and the southern U.S. exist with his distinctive style and most have garnered design awards. Town died in 2005 at the ripe age of 101! How to describe his style? Classic Louisiana, full-length shutters as doors, dovecotes (little dove or pigeon towers, which were once considered a measure of wealth), 13-foot ceilings (better circulate air flow), plantationstyle separate shutters and brick floors with a special beeswax finish. It’s warm and inviting, yes. A little Dilbeck-esque. But to have the best of all possible worlds, take Town’s Louisiana style and marry it to new construction with the latest bell and whistles and you have, well, 3021 Southwestern Blvd. This is truly one of the most beautiful homes I have seen in a long time, it is just YUMMY!

This home is perfectly sized. There are formals, of course, and oh-sodecked-out are they you could literally move in with just a toothbrush and a trunk. Cook’s kitchen, study, exercise and game rooms, wine room, five en suite bedrooms, including a master that will blow you away, Louisiana charm in the woodwork, wood floors and millwork. Built in 2006, the home is well insulated and a picture of energy efficiency. Also, the home is in the Highland Park ISD and is, in fact, within walking distance of the shining new elementary school that will open this fall. So if you have a three-year-old, you’d better nab this house before there is another spike in Dallas home prices OR interest rates!

With southern design in mind By Stephan Sardone
stephan@sardoneconstruction.com As a southerner, I’ve found it intriguing over the years to see “southern design” at the top of trends lists for interior decorating — sometimes even exterior.

Hammer cont'd from page 8 well by making sure the rooms have plenty of closet space, room for towels and toiletries, and a comfy atmosphere. After all, they are out of their own comfort zone. For guest rooms with small closets, I suggest having a built-in shelving unit for utilizing space upward, while leaving room for shoes somewhere at the bottom. Try to keep family photos or portraits (also a common southern element) out of guests rooms; rather, leave them for hallways, stairways and the living room. Let’s take things outside, because southern design can be applied to the exterior of the home as well. For example, great vintage architectural elements such as curved awnings, grand columns and intricate railings make up a welcoming, eye-catching

southern home. The porch — or the veranda — is crucial and deserves attention, so go big. A large porch, whether screened in or not, with plenty of seating, such as benches or a porch swing, will invite anyone in with warmth and intrigue. Large, wrap-around porches also give homeowners the opportunity to create multiple entrances and exits from different rooms. I’ve seen many homes where the front door is in the center and the porch wraps around the side, where the kitchen is located. This is a perfect opportunity for an easy escape or entrance to throw out compost, feed the dogs or call everyone for dinner.

Stetson. Today, the brand is almost synonymous with Texas itself, even though only some of the hats are made here and the company started in Philadelphia. Since the beginning of the Stetson Hat company in 1865, the company has grown to be the largest hat manufacturer in America. Many of its hats are made in a Garland factory, along with those of Dallas’ home-grown Resistol brand, which it acquired. Photos by Michael Wald You can tour the Steam in the blocking process (above). Unfinished hats and process and come away with a better understandauthor in straw hat (below). ing of what goes into making each hat. It takes many highly skilled artisans using some modernized equipment but mainly relying on older machinery, which is no longer manufactured and, even if it were, using outdated Michael Wald designs replacement of which would be extremely costly. Upgrading a single sewing machine capable of specialized stitching (and there are rows of them), for example, would cost about $25,000. The process starts with creating the felt fabric that forms the basis for a Stetson. The hats use either wool, beaver or rabbit fur, each being of higher quality and cost than the former. Once a basic round shape is formed, the hat begins the process of being shaped into the final product. Through various stages using steam and molds (each unique to Stetson and in each head size for various hats) to make the general shape of the crown in the flat starting material. Following that, the unique “roll” of the Stetson brim is added in the next step, using a different mold and heat in a “blocking” process. Each step of the way, the hats are inspected and rejects are taken out of production. Once the shape of the hat is generally set, a four-stage lacquering process begins which gives the Stetson its signature hardness and durability. The hat is checked for color consistency and dye is added where needed to color the hat at this stage. Trim is added in the form of the inner requires expensive machinery.

our understanding of others. That’s important for me and my kids.” Katie Schon feels the same way. She started volunteering when her son was four years old. Her children are also participating in the auction. “There’s just a tiny bit of pink right here,” said threeand-a-half-year-old Cora. Her self-portrait is very layered. “There’s a big mouse and a creepy ghost!” Her brother Jakub, seven, said she took longer to paint her self-portrait than he did. “This is a lion, and I’m the cheetah,” he explained while showing off his painting. “They are fighting, and the cheetah wins.” The animals are in front of a backdrop of a colorful rainbow. “The auction can start a bidding war,” said Cynthia
Brannum, art program director for The Stewpot. The exhibit will also feature paintings by Stewpot artists. “There are only two requirements for our program: that you are homeless or atrisk and that you really want to create,” Brannum said. “When they come here, they are dealing with very difficult issues. They live in a shelter with no control. Someone tells them what time to get up, what time to go to sleep, when to take a shower. It has to be regimented because there are so many people, but here you can be completely free.” In the art studio, Mystery, a Stewpot client and artist, is working on a portrait of George W. Bush. She’s particularly impressed by the shadows in his face. “I love it; it’s like music to me,” she said. She picked up a paintbrush for the first time when
she came to The Stewpot a year and a half ago. Like her name, her life before The Stewpot is a mystery. But here, she found a calling. “Nobody doesn’t want a place to call home,” she said, “but this is getting me there. There’s something good in all of us. I could come here every day. It’s like therapy to me. It’s like going to another world.” And Olivia understands that. As different as she and Mystery are, they have something in common. “I enjoy art because it relaxes me,” the teenager said. “And, I think the art program is really good for the people who come here, because they can express their feelings without having to tell people their stories. They can just show people.” Self-Portrait: A Little Stewpot Steward Art Show is Saturday, March 25 from 4 to 6 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church of Dallas, 1835 Young St.

Call us mad, MARCH mad, but in honor of April the Giraffe’s impending new arrival, we’re taking 50% off all baby items this month! While it may not be as amazing as a newborn giraffe, we think our expectant mother and baby section is pretty darn cute! Come see the changes we’re making. A new workstation, to give customers access to a computer and printer, will be in soon. We have new merchandise from our latest trip to Dallas Market, including chocolate — yes, chocolate! — and it’s reeeeally good. Whenever you need to mail, ship, copy or shop for home, office or school needs, step into my office ... you’ll always find something you want. We’re more than just your shipping store!
