Volume 93, Issue No. 39

A Thurston County Superior Court Judge set bail at $1 million last Thursday for a man accused of stabbing a 52-year-old man to death in Yelm on Oct. 16. Tony Allen Bolton, 50, from the Yelm area, is being held in Thurston County Jail on a charge of second-degree murder. He is accused of stabbing to death Ross Yardley, 52, of the Yelm area. Prosecutors asked Judge James Dixon on Thursday to set Bolton’s bail at $1 million, citing

the crime’s status as a capital offense, as well as Bolton’s criminal history, which includes 20 felony convictions since 1981. His convictions, which are mostly in King and Pierce counties, include unlawful possession of a controlled substance; residential burglary; fourth-degree domestic violence assault; thirdGHJUHH PDOLFLRXV PLVFKLHI Ă€UVW GHJUHH HVFDSH Ă€UVW GHJUHH H[WRUWLRQ DQG Ă€UVW GHJUHH DUPHG robbery with a deadly weapon, according to court documents.

Mount Rainier Entrance Fees Waived Saturday

Pete Caster / pcaster@chronline.com

A couple has their engagement photos taken on the steps leading up to the trails above Paradise on Tuesday evening at Mount Rainier National Park.

I F YO U WA N T T O VO L U N T E E R : Information about Mount Rainier’s volunteer program, including a list of open positions, a calendar of activities, and pictures and videos of volunteers in action may be found on Mount Rainier National Park’s website at www.nps.gov/mora, or on its volunteer program blog at rainiervolunteers.blogspot.com.

Zen Tingey, left, of Shoreline, Morgan Schmitt, center, of Seattle, and Leif Olson, center-right, of Issaquah, hike back down the trails above Paradise after skiing down from Camp Muir on Tuesday afternoon at Mount Rainier National Park. It took the trio about four hours to hike up to the camp at 10,100 feet, then an hour and 45 minutes to ski down — which did not include the hike back down from where the snow fields ended.

Mount Rainier National Park will celebrate National Public Lands Day on Saturday with several volunteer projects open to public participation. The work day caps a busy summer in which nearly 2,000 people have volunteered their time and talents to the protection of Mount Rainier’s natural and cultural treasures and helped serve its visitors, according to a press release. National Public Lands Day is an annual celebration of public involvement in the stewardship of

America’s national, state, and local parks and forests. More than 200,000 individuals are expected to participate in events all over the country. In recognition of this, entrance fees will be waived at all national parks for the day. Volunteers will receive an additional coupon for free admission on a day of their choice. Members of the public are invited to join in the day’s work. The National Parks Conservation Association will help coordinate registration for the event beginning 9 a.m. at the White River Campground in the northeastern corner of the park. After a brief welcome, participants will divide

into work groups. The Washington Trails Association and Park Service crew leaders will lead trail maintenance projects around Sunrise, while other crews will work on restoring subalpine meadows by planting species grown in the park’s greenhouse from seeds collected from the meadows of Sunrise. Trail work is suitable for ages 16 and up, while revegetation is good for all ages. Additional projects may be added as well. Volunteers should come prepared for the possibility of cool, wet weather, with warm clothing, rain gear, sturdy footwear, and gloves. Knee pads are also recommended for planting. If the weather is nice, sunglasses, sunscreen, and hats are recommended. Volunteers should also bring water, snacks, and a lunch. Free camping at the White River Campground is available both the day before and after National Public Lands Day for event participants. Contact Ian Harvey at Ian_Harvey@partner.nps.gov to reserve a campsite, and include the total number of people in your group as well as the number of tents you will be using. Volunteers at Mount Rainier National Park maintain trails, patrol park roads and wilderness areas, assist and educate visitors, conduct research as citizen scientists, plant native plants, as well as dozens of other tasks. Last year, 1,693 volunteers contributed 57,336 hours of service, an effort valued at $1.4 million.

Lifelong Rainier Resident Hired as New RES Principal Looking Forward to Making Positive Impact on Students BY JENNA LOUGHLIN jloughlin@yelmonline.com

Rita Meldrum is looking to build a team, and the entire Rainier School District community is invited. Meldrum was hired as Rainier Elementary School’s principal over the summer. As someone born and raised in Rainier and who always wanted the opportunity to come back to her community, Meldrum is looking forward to creating a school culture and climate of pride with a focus on what is best for kids. “That’s what I’m about,� she said. “What can we do, always, what’s best for kids.�

Meldrum was initially hired by the district in 1996 and in that time she has taught English language arts in middle school as well as third grade and fourth grade before most recently taking on the job of RSD instructional facilitator for the last three years. She was also a basketball coach at the junior high and high school levels. “I like challenges,â€? Meldrum said. “I like new things.â€? What got her on the path of becoming a principal was being a part of the district’s leadership team, which includes Rainier Superintendent Tim Garchow, Rainier High School Principal Bryon Bahr and Assistant Principal John Beckman. Meldrum went back to school, taking weekend classes to obtain her DGPLQLVWUDWLRQ FHUWLĂ€FDWLRQ Although she enjoyed her time spent working with teachers as the instructional facilitator, she is excited to be around kids

once more and has a lofty goal of getting to know each of them by name. “I want to be where kids are,� Meldrum said. “I’m kid oriented. I love their smiles, I love still working with them. I’m not willing to give that up yet. That’s why I love this role where I’m at right now because I get to see all, how many do I have today? All 348 of them.� In order to achieve her goal of bringing a consistent culture and climate of pride to the school and its students, Meldrum goes back to the concept of team she gained from being involved in basketball both as a player and as a coach in order to get more people involved and have a voice. “I want them (students) to have pride and respect in their school ... because once you have that pride and you feel that respect, (it) begins the building blocks, building foundation, that they want to be here,� Meldrum

said. “The most important thing is that everybody feels a part of the team we’re building together. I think that’s my athletic background.� She has created a leadership team for just the elementary school, a data team and a parent/ community outreach team. “I have great people,� Meldrum said. “We’re a team in this together. Everyone has a role, everyone has a responsibility for our kids because that’s what we’re centered around ... it’s what can we do to make this the best place for our kids. ’Cause it’s an awesome place, but how can we even just strive to continue to always do what’s best for kids? “It’s a team effort,� she said. “We are in it together is really what it is. We are. We have to be.� As any good principal would, Meldrum wants to make sure each Rainier student continues to grow academically. To that end, she is focused on improving reading and math scores and making data-driven decisions. “That is why we put together last year our small groups so that each child is able to stretch from where they’re at,� Meldrum said.

“We want to be able to stretch each child.â€? Being the one in charge can be a lonely position, but Meldrum has overcome this challenge already through her networking as the instructional facilitator, so she knows she can pick up the phone and call anyone on the district’s leadership any time she needs to. A personal challenge she has set for herself is to make sure she stays up on best practices. “I really see myself as an instructional leader administrator,â€? Meldrum said. “I want to make sure I don’t forget what it’s like to be in a classroom.â€? As she begins her tenure as RES principal, Meldrum is looking forward to being able to make a positive impact on students’ lives in a different way than she ever could as a teacher. “I love Rainier,â€?

The Chehalis Western Trail is once again open for use in the section that crosses beneath the Rainier Road train trestle. The trail had been closed since June 19 when Burlington Northern began the replacement of the trestle, according to a press release. County crews have now removed the barricades. There may be one or two additional short-term closures of the site between now and the end of October to accommodate the installation of guardrail. These future closures will be for one day or less.

Thurston County worked with Burlington Northern to provide the widest trail possible beneath the trestle.

The county hopes to be in a position to pave the remaining gravel section of the trail in this area in the near future, hopefully in 2016.

Yelm’s Newest Bank Ready to Serve Community Weeklong Grand Opening Celebration Starts Oct. 5 BY JENNA LOUGHLIN jloughlin@yelmonline.com

Walker is also excited to be working in the community she has lived in for 25 years. As a ORDQ RIĂ€FHU VKH LV SOHDVHG WR EH able to offer loans to her neighbors. Although she knows many think there are already a lot of banks in Yelm, Walker points out that Olympia Federal is not just another bank. “We are a mutual bank, so we don’t have stock holders,â€? she said. “The money that we earn we give back to the community, so we’re a true community bank.â€? Olympia Federal offers everything the big commercial banks do — checking and savings accounts, 24-hour ATMs, loans, safe deposit boxes, online banking, a mobile app and the ability to deposit a check with a picture. The bank’s website is user friendly, helpful and educational, according to Walker, and also includes a mortgage center where people can get personalized quotes that will tell them what their closing costs and monthly payments will be. “It kind of takes the mystery out of buying a house,â€? she said. “It kind of empowers people.â€? One of the bank’s goals is to promote homeownership, and as a portfolio lender it does not sell its customer’s loans. “If the loan makes sense, we’ll do what we can to get a yes,â€? Walker said. “It’s not a cookie

cutter. Everyone’s unique. And no one can touch our construction loans, no one. It’s our niche.â€? Plus, each branch treats people like family, Walker said. The Ă€UHSODFH LQ WKH <HOP EUDQFK¡V lobby along with the coffee and water for humans and water for their dogs are all examples of how the bank tries to make those who stop in feel welcomed and at home. Another example is in the stones used along the exterior of the building. They were supposed to be slate, but a Yelm resident suggested they use rocks from the area and the bank’s CEO thought it would be a nice local touch. Walker gets a thrill seeing the reaction of existing Oly Fed — as its friends call the bank — customers when they walk into their new, local branch. In addition to the bank branch, the building includes a separate RIĂ€FH VSDFH WKDW LV DYDLODEOH WR rent, and a community room that Walker envisions as a place for groups to hold their meetings. The community room includes a table, eight seats, a sink and a private bathroom. Those interested in either space should contact Walker. Anyone interested in checking out the building is welcome any time the branch is open, but there is also a week-long grand opening celebration planned starting Monday, Oct. 5. There is something planned every day, LQFOXGLQJ JRRGLHV UDIĂ HV DQG a chance to win the grand prize trip to Universal Studios. The festivities will culminate with a barbecue from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, Oct. 9 following the ribbon-cutting ceremony. “We promote thrift, savings and homeownership,â€? Walker said. “We would love to get a bunch of customers in.â€?

PSE Natural Gas Rates Could Decrease

2x4 $ 80 Angie Evans Jenn Harshfield Tabitha Johnson 15-546975H

BELLEVUE (AP) — Puget Sound Energy natural gas customers could see lower rates starting Nov. 1 if a request by the company is approved by regulators. If the state Utilities and Transportation Commission approves the reduction, the average rate for a residential customer would drop by 15 percent. The typical business would see rates drop by nearly 18 percent. &RPSDQ\ RIÀFLDOV VDLG LQ D news release Monday they’re asking for the decrease due to a continuing drop in natural gas prices. Puget Sound Energy is also seeking a slight rate increase for replacing aging natural gas pipelines to improve safety. The company’s nearly 800,000 customers would see the reduced rates starting in their November PSE bills.

Police Respond to Robbery at Apex Grocery in Yelm BY NISQUALLY VALLEY NEWS Police responded around 5 p.m. last Thursday to a report of a robbery in the parking lot of Apex Grocery, located at 107 First St. S., Yelm. Police at the scene said they received a report of an armed robbery. The victim reported he was approached in the parking lot of the store by a man wearing a white ghost mask, like the one featured in the movie “Scream,� police said. The suspect was reportedly wearing black pants and a black hoodie, and brandished a silver handgun. The suspect reportedly

pointed the gun at the victim, and rummaged through the victim’s vehicle. The suspect reportedly stole prescription Oxycodone medication, and took a hat off the vehicle’s dashboard. The suspect reportedly stuffed the stolen items into a camo backpack, then cut through the Yelm-Tenino Trail before fleeing down Washington Street on foot. A K-9 unit with the Thurston County Sheriff’s Office was the first law enforcement on the scene, and it attempted to track the suspect. Yelm Police arrived at the scene shortly thereafter.

‘Incorruptible’ Is Guaranteed Laughter Tickets for Medieval Comedy Can Be Purchased Online in Advance BY JENNA LOUGHLIN jloughlin@yelmonline.com

Do the ends justify the means? This is the question Standing Room Only theater company’s upcoming production of “Incorruptibleâ€? will explore. This comedy takes place in a crumbling monastery in 13th century France. The monks are desperate because their Patron Saint Foy has stopped performing miracles for them, but a sister convent has gained favor with the Pope, and pilgrims DUH Ă RFNLQJ WKHUH WR SD\ KRPDJH to the same patron saint. Miracles or chicanery here, the monks must solve the mystery. Their prayers seem to be answered by the appearance of a one-eyed minstrel who, with his troupe of wily and willowy peasant women, offers to distract them from their woes. Desperate times call for desperate measures and this patcheyed singing would-be baker has more than one recipe up his sleeve that the brothers of Priseaux are willing to try. Nancy Hillman returns as director while Dave Champagne and Dawn Emilia Young are sharing the role of producer and Anne Schuchmann is stage managing. Hillman VHOHFWHG WKH SOD\ DIWHU Ă€QGLQJ LW among the collection of books and plays her daughter, Avriel, left with her. “It chose me,â€? Hillman said. ´)URP WKH YHU\ Ă€UVW SDJH LW ZDV ‘This is funny.’â€? The style of comedy author Michael Hollinger created needs to be precisely staged. “This particular show is not like a drama where you can let the actors go and they can relate to each other and they can rely on the emotions,â€? Hillman said. “This is a comedy that needs to be choreographed because the moves around the comedy pieces, the comedy beats as I will

Champagne returns to the stage and has added the role of producing to his responsibilities. The amount of work has been challenging, but he is splitting it with Young and is learning as he goes.

“The job for me, primarily, is taking responsibilities off of the director, who’s been doing everything, so she can focus on directing,â€? Champagne said. “It’s a lot of coordinating.â€? As far as his character, Champagne sees Jack as pivotal to the plot because he is the idea man who is trying to make his money and go on his way. His challenges have been learning to play a song on a mandolin and, as a one-eyed minstrel, having to wear an eye patch. “When you’re on a stage, depth perception becomes a really important thing if you don’t want to end up in the front row’s laps,â€? Champagne said. Brother Felix is a change of pace for Simpson, who has usually taken roles more along the lines of slapstick comedy or musicals. Yelm is where he started his acting career ZLWK ´7KH 6RXQG RI 0XVLFÂľ LQ Ă€IWK grade and worked his way to high school productions, choir and theater performances at Saint Martin’s University in Lacey and a member of the Heartsparkle play back theater group in Olympia. Simpson sees his character as the moral compass and has enjoyed getting to explore a character with an honest side. “I don’t have any deceit in my character,â€? he said. “Everything I’ve said throughout the play is coming from the heart. ... It’s fun for me to see how I can have success without lying.â€?

Martinez describes her character, Marie, as a peasant working girl who is in love with someone, and yet desperate to get married because she is fed up with her mother. “She’s ready to say yes to anybody that wants to sweep her off her feet,â€? Martinez said. What she enjoys about her character is that she speaks her mind, is not afraid to tell people they are being idiots and is the one doing the proposing. The challenge for Martinez is that playing Marie has been somewhat of a life review. In addition to three weekends of performances, there will be a Pay What You May performance RQ 2FW ZKLFK LV DOVR WKH Ă€QDO dress rehearsal. Also new with this production is the ability to purchase

This show is different from any show he’s done in the past 15 years, he said, noting that everyone putting it together has designed it to be the best quality show when it comes to production that they can possibly do, in addition to the talent that has always been there. “I think the audience is going to notice the difference,� Champagne said. For an evening of live comedy theater, look no further than “Incorruptible.� “I guarantee laughter,� Champagne said. “I guarantee entertainment.�

Alaska Airlines Is Fueled by Boom in Tourism

In this March 2015 photo, Colin Drummond, 4, pushes luggage from behind as he walks with family members to check-in a relative for an Alaska Airlines flight at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Alaska Airlines has been making it easy for Washington state residents to take direct flights to the Hawaiian islands since 2008.

As the sun sets, a wedding couple is seen near the ocean Sept. 16 in Honolulu. The island is a popular destination for honeymooners from Washington state thanks in part to direct flights from SeaTac and Bellingham.

Alaska hasn’t looked back since while growing exponentially to become a major player in the islands’ tourism industry.

Tilden said Alaska will increase its capacity this year by 8 percent to nearly 1.4 million air seats in spite of stiff competition from other carriers in the West Coast-Hawaii market. Alaska, which entered the Hawaii market with Seattle-Honolulu service in October 2007, was looking for new opportunities when Aloha and ATA ceased operations and cost the state 1.5 million air seats. ,W DOVR ZDVQ¡W WRR ORQJ EHIRUH WKDW $ODVND¡V Ă HHW RI %RHLQJ DLUFUDIW ZDV FHUWLĂ€HG IRU RYHU RFHDQ

Nothing was thought of it at the time but it is now believed that he was a sort of an advance agent of the criminals. Nearly everyone inclines to the belief that it was Ben Merrill, the brother of the outlaw, who quit work at Bloom’s camp at Anderson’s island to go to the assistance of his brother. Ben is reported to have started for Rainier. The knowledge that Ben Merrill was coming to the outlaws’ assistance came to the Oregon detectives in some manner before he had fairly got started, according to a remark dropped by one of the detectives in the presence of an Olympian representative at Tenino when the chase was on at that point. ,W ZRXOG EH D GLIÀFXOW PDWWHU WR convince the Yelm and Rainier people that Tracy made away with his partner.

So there are likely some who think it’s a good thing that ChancelKam Chancellor supposedly said, “It’s all in God’s hands,â€? as he lor is “leaving it in God’s hands.â€? I am not one who thinks like that at referenced the stalemate between all. the Seattle Seahawks and him over It’s rather trendy for Chrishis desire to change his four-year tians to latch on to extrabiblical contract only at the beginning of his second year into it. This bothers teachings, often incidentally and innocently, as they suppose the Seahawks fans who are nonbelievdoctrines they’ve been taught are ers because they’re already sick of Chancellor’s apparent disregard for correct. Seldom do people take the time to check for themselves to the team as a whole.

see what their Bible actually says, compared to what their instructors teach. One of those trendy doctrines is this idea that God’s will always happens. People often say, “Well, if it is meant to be, then it will happen,� or “Since it happened, it must have been God’s will.� The idea is that God always forces His will to happen no matter what any of us do. I’ve even been told not to pray for “God’s will to be done,� that doing it that way is praying without faith. I’ve been told to “name it and claim it,� in contrast to praying for God’s will to be done. My Bible and yours has Jesus, teaching us to pray the Father’s will be done (Matthew 6:10). Additionally, Jesus prayed that the Father’s will be done in the Garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:42). The idea to not pray for God’s will is not just extrabiblical, it is unbiblical. Furthermore, to say that whatever happens is God’s will is

blaming God for the mistakes individuals make. The Charlie Manson murders were apparently God’s will, Jonestown was what God wanted, and the the absurdity could just go on. Kam says it’s all in God’s hands. So, if it goes well for him, I supposed he will credit God. But what if things don’t go well for him? Will his blunder due to his own pride be God’s fault? If the Seahawks continue to have weak moments because of Chancellor’s lack of a “team playerâ€? mentality, will that be God’s fault, too? When does he have any accountability?

He has the ability to JLYH XS RQ KLV RZQ VHOĂ€VK LGHDV Another likely false (unbiblical) doctrine implied by this being “all in God’s handsâ€? thought is that “God is in control.â€? It is not found

in Scripture. As a matter of fact, the opposite is stated in the Bible. 1 John 5:19 clearly says, “We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil oneâ€? (NIV). Now, I do believe God can do whatever He wants (sovereignty), but I also believe He has chosen to give us free will, and most choose not to let God have control of their lives. +RZ FDQ D SHUVRQ MXVWLI\ VHOĂ€VKness and claim God led them to be VHOĂ€VK" %DP %DP KDV FDXVHG KLV problems, and at some point he will have to deal with the consequences RI KXUWLQJ RWKHUV IRU KLV RZQ VHOĂ€VK gains. Sure, someone may have wisely advised him to hand it over to God, and let God help. There’s nothing wrong with handing off our problems, concerns, complaints, etc., to God. That’s a good thing. It becomes a bad thing when people give God credit or blame where it is not due.

That is the enigma. You knew the truth in your head, your heart, your life, and through all of us who have shared our pieces of it with you. What happened? We will be there on Thursday, but would really rather not attend. It’s hard to say goodbye to a 37-year-old pirate storyteller who taught everyone else to hope, then left us much too soon.

JBLM’s Firefighting Task Force Returns Home

More Than 200 Local Soldiers Suppressed Wildfire, Protected Structures and Soothed Eastern Washington Communities

Photos by Sgt. 1st Class Andrew Porch

Soldiers assigned to Task Force First Round, out of Joint Base Lewis-McChord, walk past a wildfire burning in the Onata Fire located in the Colville National Forest, on Aug. 24. The soldiers helped lay fire hose and moved debris in hopes of helping suppress the wildfire and halting its advancement.

I lived in Yelm for 28 years. ‌ Yelm needs a (swimming) pool. I moved to Ocean Shores last September and pay $140 a year for the family to use three pools (two outdoor and one indoor) and a hot tub, a gym, fullsize basketball court, tennis courts, badminton courts and game room.

Continuing to Fight Soccer Team Embraces New System; Girls Are ‘Capable of Beating Any Team in the League’ BY TYLER HUEY thuey@yelmonline.com

Learning a new formation, trusting the system, and believing in one another has led to a major turnaround on WKH VRFFHU Ă€HOG DV WKH /DG\ 7RUQDGRV VHHN UHGHPSWLRQ The girls believe they can play with any team in the 4A Narrows League, and they plan on proving it. Although last year’s varsity squad went winless through Oct. 30, the ladies have since won this season’s opener 3-1 against W.F. West and have been within one or two goals in four losses, as well as tied Tumwater 3-3 with four starters out. Yelm lost 2-0 to Bellarmine Prep last week and 2-0 to Gig Harbor on Tuesday. Despite some initial hesitancy because it was an unknown system, Bria Jackson coach Jay Dorhauer praised his players for buying into the 4-2-3-1 formation, which allows the team to create more scoring opportunities by getting more numbers up in the attack. Dorhauer said Yelm didn’t have a true goal scorer last season, and because the girls need to rely on everybody, it was imperative to make a change that gave them the best opportunity to score. Keanna “Our defense is pretty strong com- Jackson ing from select teams,â€? junior defender Cierra Harrison said. “I think it’s really good that we’re having the defense attack a lot. ...

Gig Harbor is the only team that has not played a league game yet. Yelm’s opponent tonight, South Kitsap, lost 48-7 to Olympia last week.

Gig Harbor (3-0), Bellarmine Prep (2-0) and South Kitsap (2-0) are undefeated. Although Yelm lost 2-0 to both Gig Harbor and Bellarmine within the week, it’s a big improvement considering the Tornados fell 8-0 to the Lions last season.

ASIDE FROM winning the opener and battling Bellarmine Prep, another uplifting moment was facing Black Hills. The Wolves won 2-1, but many Yelm players questioned whether Black Hills was offsides during its gamewinning goal. The Tornados continued to compete after trailing early, which didn’t always happen before. “In years past when we get down, heads go down,� Dorhauer said. “They didn’t necessarily give up but they just played with a defeated mentality. This year they came back and tied that game with four minutes left, and then Black Hills scored with a minute left in the game. Our girls thought it was offsides.

Hernandez said. “This year everybody’s pretty healthy, wanting to play, and actually trying to be good.â€? That want to is what gives this year’s squad a chance to beat anyone. Not that the Tornados will win every league game, but as Dorhauer said, if everyone gives it their all, they’ll put themselves in position to. “I feel like we can play with pretty much any team because we’re trying hard and most of our team is pretty skilled,â€?

I just want us to come out and play like we know we can, and if we win that’s great.â€? Bria wants that as well, yet the sophomore also has respect — or a lack thereof — on her mind. She said many teams looked down on her and her teammates last year. “It was pretty apparent that they didn’t respect us,â€?

Hernandez said. “This year everybody’s pretty healthy, wanting to play, and actually trying to be good.â€? That want to is what gives this year’s squad a chance to beat anyone. Not that the Tornados will win every league game, but as Dorhauer said, if everyone gives it their all, they’ll put themselves in position to. “I feel like we can play with pretty much any team because we’re trying hard and most of our team is pretty skilled,â€?

ARIES Mar 21/Apr 20 You are extra motivated to explore new opportunities this week, Aries. Bring along a trusted advisor who can steer you in the right direction if you have questions. TAURUS Apr 21/May 21 It is very important to find balance, Taurus. Many activities are coming up, and you have to figure out a way to juggle them all. This will take some creativity. GEMINI May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, avoid overindulging this week. Even though it may seem like you can never get enough, over time something special may lose its spark. Practice moderation, instead. CANCER Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, everything will work out the way it should if you keep a smile on your face this week and continue with the status quo. Soon you can shake things up.

LIBRA Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, this week presents opportunities to help people or even animals in need. If ever there was a time to take up a cause, now is it. You have plenty of extra time to lend a hand.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you will enjoy downtime much more after you complete an important task and feel a sense of accomplishment. Rest may still be a few days away, so be patient. CAPRICORN Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, things may be a little confusing of late, but you will find a clear path to get things done. Ask a friend or colleague to lend a helping hand if things get too hectic. AQUARIUS Jan 21/Feb 18 Relationships are very important this week, Aquarius. Nurture both the personal and professional relationships that you want to grow, and you will be happy you did.
