Butterflies flutter by at Bush The George W. Bush Presidential Center again offers its popular Fall Native Texas Park tours, scheduled most Saturdays through Nov. 12, and led by docents from the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum. Photo courtesy of The Bush Center “The Bush Center’s Native Texas Park showcases a variety of native plants, including Blackland Prairie grasses and seasonal wildflowers, and clearings that provide native habitat for birds,” Laura Bush said. “The park is home to milkweed plants, which make us a prime site for spotting the millions of beautiful monarch butterflies that will migrate through North Texas this fall.” Weather permitting, the guided tours are at 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. on Sept. 17 and 24, Oct. 1, 8, 22, and 29, and Nov. 5 and 12, walk visitors through the one-mile network of trails on the Bush Center’s grounds. Tours are free; however, space is limited and tours are available on a first-come, first-served basis. For visitors with time constraints, self-guided tours are free every day of the year, from sunrise to sunset. Comfortable shoes are recommended for walking the trails. Each season brings beautiful changes to the prairie landscape. More information about activities and programs taking place in the Native Texas Park is available on the Bush Library website. — Bobbi Gruner

Actress brings Texas icon Ann Richards to life By Haley Rogers Actress, dancer, singer, instructor, cancer survivor and White Rock Lake resident Linda Leonard will be playing former Texas Governor Ann Richards in a 90-minute, onewoman show called “ANN.” The show, originally played and written by actress Holland Taylor, will open Oct. 6 and continue through Nov. 6, two days before the presidential election. Leonard will be the second person to ever play the role. “Ann was beloved by so many, so my challenge will be to bring as much of her spirit and authenticity to the role as possible,” Leonard said. Leonard, an actor with
The Horne Agency in Dallas, has worked for many theatres and studios in the Metroplex throughout the years. Her favorites, she said, have been KD Studio/Conservatory, Uptown Players, Stage West, Echo Theatre, WaterTower Theatre, Theatre Three and Circle Theatre. She recently had the good fortune of playing opposite her husband, actor Bill Jenkins, in “Clever Little Lies,” a regional premiere at Circle Theatre in Fort Worth. She has worked all throughout the country and abroad in her 45 years of experience and has seen her share of health struggles. “I was performing “CATS” in Hamburg and was about to come home after one and a half

Knit Wits
Children learn lost art of knitting at summer camp By Lauren Witt Presbyterian Village North (PVN) recently held Camp PVN, a summer camp held in partnership with Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church and NorthPark Presbyterian Church. This camp was not only a time for light-hearted intergenerational activities among children and seniors — it was also a time for learning and sharing special gifts. During Camp PVN, children and seniors spent time together during “gift hours,” where residents imparted special knowledge of hobbies, interests or activities with participating children. A group of residents at the senior living community who cleverly dub themselves the “Knit Wits,” feel that knitting and crocheting is a lost art for today’s younger generations, as they are growing up in a time of busy schedules with other forms of entertainment. As a result, members of PVN’s Knit Wits group used some of the camp’s gift hours to teach children how to do French knitting with handheld spools. This activity was meaningful to the senior residents because they learned how to knit and crochet at around the same ages as the children in the camp. Other residents and interest groups participated as well. “My mother taught me how to knit when I was 10 years old,” said Judy Morris,

Knitting at summer camp. a resident of PVN and member of the Knit Wits group. “I watched her do it all during my childhood, so when the day came for me to learn I was not surprised. Many other children were beginning to learn from their mothers, and we just expected that we would all acquire the skill at some point. Though today’s parents do not pass down this talent to their children the way they used to, I feel it is making a comeback with young adults who are eager to experience something new. It is extremely therapeutic and can be both stress relieving and create social opportunities. We were excited to see the joy that
radiated from the children’s faces as they created something unique.” The Knits Wits spent four days working with the children, helping them to make flowers, headbands and other creative items. After hosting this series of activities, they are contemplating hosting other tutorials later on during school breaks and on weekends. They experienced much joy in passing down their family knowledge of knitting and crocheting. Among all 12 members, it is estimated the group has a combined 500 years of experience, as many were taught at a young age and have been doing it all their lives. “I love making scarves for people, as it is very personalized and doesn’t take too long to complete,” Morris said. “We have discussed using our talents to make items like scarves, hats and lap blankets for people in need, such as soldiers, the homeless and hospitalized children. Our group started just a few months ago, so we are still discussing how to use knitting to help others. Overall, I enjoy being a part of it because it’s fun to keep your hands busy with these projects, and it’s a nice activity to do with other people. It’s engaging for the brain in multiple respects.” The Knit Wits meet every Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the Fun and Games room to

Mull It Over
Four teams anchor NFC
Photo courtesy of Getty Images
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
By David Mullen The importance of playing a four game preseason was put to the test in 2016 by the Dallas Cowboys, as they lost their starting quarterback to a back injury while grooming a rookie quarterback to take his place for the near future and probably the long-term. Dak Prescott was put on an accelerated program once Tony Romo went down in the third preseason game. The problem is that rookie quarterbacks don’t win in the NFL. There is too much to grasp because offenses are so complicated. Prescott has shown poise, but needs time to build a rapport with his other offensive weapons including rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott and wide receiver Dez Bryant. The Cowboys are also relying too much on a defensive line hit with suspensions. They are just not that good. But neither are the other teams in the division where the 9-7 New York Giants could win the NFC East. Eli Manning is reunited with Odell Beckham Jr. and Victor Cruz and could have the offense to beat. The Washington Redskins looked good in spots, but are relying on franchise quarterback Kirk Cousins to have the same type of year he had at the end of 2015. The Philadelphia Eagles will be relying on rookie quarterback Carson Wentz, and remember, rookie QBs just don’t succeed in year one. There appears to be four locks in the NFC to win double-digits in games and the
Carolina Panthers are one of them. Cam Newton is in his prime, but must withstand the vicious hits that are part of playing under center in professional football. They have a much underrated defense that can take them long into the playoffs. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a fashionable pick in the NFC South as Jameis Winston continues to mature as a team leader. The question with the Bucs is whether they can score enough. While the New Orleans Saints will score behind quarterback Drew Brees, their challenge will be to keep other teams from scoring. The Atlanta Falcons appear to be in disarray as they intimidate no team on defense and come up short offensively despite superstar wide-out Julio Jones. The AFC North may be the best division top to bottom. The Green Bay Packers will always be a force as long as Aaron Rodgers is at the helm. He gets back a favorite target in Jordy Nelson. Plus, there is that certain home field advantage that only Lambeau Field can bring. The Minnesota Vikings were poised to give the Packers a run with QB Teddy Bridgewater and running back Adrian Peterson, but a devastating knee injury to Bridgewater has put his career in jeopardy. They went out and grossly overpaid for quarterback Sam Bradford and his less than .500 winning percentage, hoping that

acting studio KD Conservatory, located just across from Highland Park. Since 2000, she has taught and worked closely with the crew there. “KD has helped me keep in contact with working professionals in the community,” she said. “Teaching and giving back has given me immense joy.” Leonard first met KD Studio owner Kathy Tyner in 1999, when she was brought on to be a “show doctor” for a children’s production of “Into the Woods,” which turned into a success for the students and school. “That was the beginning of our relationship,” Leonard said. “I love Kathy and what she gives back to the community. I love how she finds opportunities for talented people who might never have a chance to share their gifts with others.” Tyner praises her teachers as well, Leonard in particular. “Linda is amazing,” Tyner said. “Not only is she an incredible actor, but she is so generous
with her teaching and helping other actors succeed. She always takes that extra time to help the students with their work and life in general. I can’t wait to watch her play Ann Richards in October.” Leonard is a busy woman. On top of constantly learning lines for “ANN,” she teaches, directs and choreographs for the Jewish Community Center in their arts program called JPAS, year round. She has directed and/or choreographed more than 300 shows in her career and has helped found several theaters, most recently Brick Road Theatre in Plano. She has spent a lot of time working for Echo Theatre, based at the White Rock Lake Bath House Cultural Center, and teaches On Camera acting for Page Parkes and private coaches. “I wish I could find a place in this area to give classes like I do at KD Studios,” Leonard said. “I’m always open to getting involved with the
community.” Leonard has played many roles and has been highly acclaimed for her stage role as Aurora (Spiderwoman) in “Kiss of the Spiderwoman,” which she performed in two separate Dallas productions. In addition to stage roles, Leonard has played film and television roles such as Salem, American Crime, and Dallas. Through her local experience, she has found that Dallas Arts are all encompassing. “As an artist you can make a living here if you can do everything,” she said. “I am lucky to be able to do that. I love living and working by White Rock lake and find peace, exercise and beauty whenever I can there.” Leonard and her husband, along with their pets Lola, Mocha and Cosmo, live right behind Bryan Adams High School and look forward to further investing time and creativity into the Dallas area arts scene.

MOVIE TRAILER
Eastwood, Komarnicki, Hanks soar in award-worthy ‘Sully’ By Chic DiCiccio At one point in “Sully,” a computer simulation is pitted against good old fashioned human ingenuity. It’s not a spoiler to say that when this occurs in a movie directed by Clint Eastwood, the computer doesn’t stand a chance. “Sully” is a perfect example of what can happen when the right director gets the right script and casts the right actor or actress. In this case, Eastwood, screenwriter Todd Komarnicki and star Tom Hanks are firing on all cylinders in a movie that finds a way to stretch an event that took under five minutes to happen into a sharp story in 95 minutes. In case you’ve been trapped under a large rock, “Sully” details the events on and after the emergency water landing on the Hudson River on January 15, 2009. The opening scene will leave every skittish flyer sweating bullets, not to mention be a chilling reminder of previous events that occurred involving planes and New York. Komarnicki’s clever screenplay keeps viewers on their toes as it moves around in time from the flight to the accident review hearing that Sully and his co-pilot, Jeff Skiles (Aaron Eckhart), are forced to attend. Since there is no natural antagonist (unless you

Aaron Eckhart plays Jeff Skiles, and Tom Hanks plays Chesley Sullenberger in "Sully." count the geese that destroyed the plane’s engines), the only bad guy is bureaucracy and an investigation into Sully’s actions. That investigation is led by three people (Mike O’Malley, Jamey Sheridan, Anna Gunn) who each play fairly one-dimensional roles of jerk, skeptic and silent believer. These meetings, seamlessly and brilliantly edited by Blu Murray, provide a chance for the water landing to be shown from several different perspectives. Naturally, “Sully” saves the best for last and the review of the cockpit recording provides the most
intense and fascinating look at the event. It is equal parts harrowing, uplifting and chilling, mostly due to the purposeful quietness of it all. Much will be made of Tom Hanks’ performance as Sully, but Aaron Eckhart is equally as impressive. He provides much of the comedic relief and his bold confidence is a steadying hand that balances out Hanks’ shy, quiet calm. It would be a shame for Eckhart to be overlooked for such wonderful work. It is a virtual certainty that Tom Hanks will collect his sixth Best Actor Academy Award nomination. This is as understated and subtle as Hanks has ever been and his everyman demeanor is anything but routine. Hanks never plays Sully as a hero, just a man who feels compelled to do the job for which he is paid without the need for accolades. Essentially, this is a workmanlike character being played by one of the finest workmanlike actors of all time. Even though he's behind
the camera, it's impossible to not see Clint Eastwood on the screen. “Sully” is telling a story about a specific event, but Eastwood turns it into more than that. This is a thank you to the people in under appreciated jobs that serve the public and a love letter to the city of New York. Eastwood is telling a story about Sully while reminding everyone just how much people with jobs like his are taken for granted. “Sully” approaches the rarified air of previous Eastwood films such as “Million Dollar Baby” or “Unforgiven.” His movies seem simple and straight forward, but there are always several layers that blur the lines between right and wrong. In “Sully,” Eastwood and Hanks create a character who, even after saving 155 people from certain death, is laden with doubt and conflict. The fact that everyone knows the outcome and that “Sully” will still keep you on the edge of your seat is a testament to just how fantastic of a movie this is.

Lifelong learners embrace University When you walk on the 20-acre wooded grounds of the C.C. Young Retirement Community on the north shores of White Rock Lake, it feels like you are on a college campus. “Except we’re all old, and the food is a lot better,” laughed Marian Hammert. Hammert has been a resident of C.C. Young for five years. She moved to the faithbased community after her husband passed away. “Most people who are here are professionals and education was a big part of their lives,” Hammert, a former teacher, explained. “After they are finished with their work, they still have a desire to keep learning.” And that’s why Victoria Jones, the manager of Volunteer Programs and Services at C.C.

Your Stars this Week by Stella Wilder
The coming week will demand of many individuals a heightened level of patience and forbearance, as circumstances are likely to dictate what can and cannot be done, how quickly results may be obtained and measured, and whether the benefits of a job well done will be lasting or temporary. In other words, there is much that will be outside any individual's control, and much else that is simply up in the air and undefined. This, of course, can be quite troubling for those who prefer to have everything firmly in place. Even those who think they have their ducks in a row must be prepared to see their expectations shattered as developments seem to defy logic and require everyone to wait and see what's going to happen next. Few will experience anything that challenges their ability to face events with confidence; nothing should go spinning out of control, despite the lack of direct influence that anyone may be able to exert. There is much to be said for going with the flow, surely! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) You'll have the chance to become reacquainted with someone who followed a different path when you both had a choice to make some time ago. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) – You may have to wait longer than expected for an answer to an urgent question. Make use of
this extra time you have been afforded! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) Financial matters come to the fore; you must be willing to learn something more about the way these things are handled. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) – Despite your expertise, there are things that you will not be comfortable with. You must trust another to help you through this unfamiliar territory. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) Uncertainty can give way to increased confidence as you realize that you can handle almost anything, even under adverse circumstances. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) – You're eager to be reunited with someone who inspires you. The work you do afterward will rise to a new level of genius. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You'll benefit from making contact with someone who understands the ins and outs of a certain arrangement better than you do. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) – Information you receive will allow you to make a definite plan, but you can't set it in motion just yet. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) You'll be happy doing the things that are most familiar and comfortable to you; you're in no mood for experimentation.
(Jan. 7-Jan. 19) – You want to know that you're on the right track, but that kind of feedback isn't likely to come to you just yet. Stay the course for now. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) The path of least resistance is not for you; you'll be fighting to see things get done in a certain way — and on time. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) – You will have little reason to challenge someone's representation of the facts after the week's developments bear them out. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) You may be tempted to throw something away that is really quite valuable to you, but you'll soon discover just why you should hang on to it. (March 6-March 20) – Developments give you certain clues as to past behavior, and you'll learn exactly what you should be doing in the weeks to come. ARIES (March 21-April 4) Your ability to spot any kind of fraud and see through deception will serve you and others well. (April 5-April 19) – You're in no mood to interact with those who bring only talk to the table. You want action, and you know just the party you must call in to get what you want. TAURUS (April 20-May 5) You may not realize that your

said. “You always pick up something, and it makes for good conversation.” For Bill Tucker, a former administrator with the Dallas County Community Colleges, the pursuit of learning new things is must. “The University concept is supportive of the fact that as seniors we are lifelong learners and our capacity to learn hasn’t diminished, but is in fact increasing,” Tucker explained. Tucker said that seniors often have the reputation of being “stuck in our ways,” but that’s far from the truth. “Isolation, less mobile, I don’t participate in things the way I did when I was younger — that doesn’t have to be the case. I’m a lifelong learner, and I have more opportunity and time to learn new things. There’s more space in my mind than ever before.” Dr. Henson will deliver four lectures in October on 4 , 11, 18, 25 from 9:30 to 11 a.m. in the auditorium. Copyright 2016 United Feature Syndicate, Inc. ideas are perfectly in sync with those of a rival. Events seem to encourage a collaboration of sorts. (May 6-May 20) – You may be surprised at the feelings that rise to the surface when dealing with someone you've known for quite some time. GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You may be in a lull of sorts, but that doesn't mean you can't do something highly productive! Let an idea take flight. (June 7-June 20) – It's imperative that you remain in close contact with the one who carries your heart in his or her hand while traveling far from home. CANCER (June 21-July 7) What you most want is really no different from what is being sought by someone you thought you had little in common with. (July 8-July 22) – You can take steps to move things forward in a more dramatic fashion — especially where personal affairs are concerned. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) A close friend opens up to you in a surprising way and introduces you to a whole new set of options for this week and beyond. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) – You're waiting to hear from someone about a recent gamble — but in the meantime, you'll want to play it safe until you know what you have to work with.

All you have to do is type in your name, upper lefthand side over the latest story! We kind of love how once we bring a topic up, the rest of the media follows. Like our panel discussion on the private foundation that the city wants to hand Fair Park to — hottest topic in town, and boy is it a REAL real estate story! Did you know that most of the people who live around Fair Park don’t even own their own homes? A lot of those rundown homes are rentals. Which begs the question, where has the city been in the oversight of those properties? And it underscores what we are all about — home ownership helps stabilize communities like nothing else can.

trends. Take the urban chic farmhouse look. I have seen this in Atlanta and all over the East Coast. And now, thanks for New Leaf Custom Homes, I see it right here in Dallas. The home at 10136 Robin Hill Lane could teach a few thousand builders some new tricks. A new home with smooth, clean lines, no turrets (clutching heart), no 10,000 foot ceilings, and even no "dust bunny graveyards" fake crowns. Let's call it the "anti-McMansion." Indeed, I hope you are sitting down when you hear this: there is actually a front porch to encourage neighborhood conversation! Still, 10136 Robin Hill Lane is brand spanking new construction in Lake Highlands, a huge Millennials hang out. Instead of the usual circa 1957 brick ranch, we have a farmhouse feel with a touch of Hollywood glam by one of the area's hottest home builders, New Leaf Custom Homes. Boasting more than 4200 square feet of family-friendly living, this home will hold it all: kids, dogs, even a mother-in-law or two! You get five bedrooms (one for each set of parents), four full baths, an office, both a media AND game room, formals and a knock out kitchen that spaciously flows from the living room. The finish out is phenomenal, too: high (but not too high) ceilings, custom cabinetry, gorgeous contemporary light fixtures, beautiful hardwoods and hardware. The master is large and airy, with a romantic fireplace, large closet and spa bath
featuring a vessel tub and shower. Tile work is to die for. There is even a built-in desk. The backyard is spacious enough for both kids and a pool, and again, both sets of in-laws. But my favorite thing about this house is the daring lattice windows used on the front, and the charming light aqua blue door. Come on in!

Mull cont'd from page 3 could be a stopgap. It is probably too much to ask, although the Vikings defense will be improved as is the Minneapolis stadium experience. The Detroit Lions will compete. Matthew Stafford and their fans will make sure of that. Not much to like about the Chicago Bears (except when they wear their traditional uniforms) as long as quarterback Jay Cutler is around. They must hope their defense returns to some semblance of the old “Monsters of the Midway.” The Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks are clearly the class of the NFC West. This is the year Carson Palmer must prove to NFL fans that he can lead the Cardinals to Houston for Super Bowl LI in February.

He is running out of time. Russell Wilson is a true team leader in Seattle and the Seahawks defense remains stout. The most San Francisco 49ers fans are talking about this year is how often Colin Kaepernick will sit. The Rams return to Los Angeles with little to be excited about except for the training camp appearance in HBO’s “Hard Knocks.” It is Hollywood’s team again. after all. I’ll give division crowns to Green Bay, Carolina, Seattle and New York, with the wild cards teams coming from Minnesota and Arizona. When the dust (or snow) settles, the Green Bay Packers will face the Kansas City Chiefs in a rematch of Super Bowl I which was played before it was known as “super.”
