Little Hearts of Fire This past weekend, the folks in Camas County celebrat-ed their annual Homecoming/Lily Days. The Fishing Derby at Kids Pond was a great hit with young fisher-people and their parents with over 60 partici-pants this year. While the Shoshone Bannok tribe was unable to be here for this year, there was an extra special performance on Saturday afternoon by a group of young musicians from Nampa. Mariachi Tleyotltzin (Little Hearts of Fire), a group that includes teenagers and young adults, was brought together by Pablo J. Rodriguez to involve the kids in the art of music and to push them to higher education after high school. In 2012, Pablo Rodriguez received the Idaho Governor’s Awards in the Arts for Support of Arts Education at the College of South Idaho in Twin Falls. Pablo formed the Mariachi group of young students to keep the Mexican culture vibrant and to provide role models for the younger generations. photo courtesy of Marshall Ralph

June 14: Free Fishing Day in Idaho Saturday June 14 is your chance to try fishing for the first time, or dust off your rod and put it back into use. It is Free Fishing Day in Idaho, and Fish and Game invites ev-eryone to celebrate the day by fishing anywhere in Idaho without a license. Though fishing license requirements are suspended for this special day, all other rules, such as limits or tackle restrictions, remain in effect. Free fishing day includes salmon; anglers don’t need a license or salmon permit, but they are still subject to all bag and possession limits. Free fishing day provides a great opportunity for novices to give fishing a try. It is also a great opportunity for those who might want to pick up an old tradition. It is also a great opportunity for parents to introduce their children to the sport for the first time. For information on a location near you, contact your lo-cal Fish and Game office.
Thanks to All Who Attended On behalf of the American Legion Post # 19 and all of the veterans we would like to thank the Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts and all of the general public for attending the Me-morial Day Ceremonies at Mountain View Cemetery. We would especially like to recognize the Boy Scouts and Cubs Scouts for helping with the placement of the 63 flags on the graves of the veterans interred in Camas County. We would also like to thank Linda Thomas and Doris Cox for their efforts inlocating those interred. Thank you to Mike Gill whose help was invaluable in lo-cating many of the graves. It was our honor to mark each location with a flag on Memorial Day to coin-cide with the ceremonies. Thank you to the ladies Auxiliary for the lovely luncheon after the cer-emonies. Thanks to all for your hard work, we truly do ap-preciate all of your efforts.
Respectfully,Ron Chapman, CommanderAmerican Legion Post # 19

Laverne Walsted Laverne Walsted, a resi-dent of Twin Falls, died at DeSano Place in Gooding, Idaho, on Sunday June 8, 2014 at the age of 82. She died of natural causes after a long struggle with kidney cancer. She had previously lived in Twin Falls and Buhl, Idaho before moving to Sa-lem, Arkansas to be near her son and his family. Laverne was born in Den-ver, Colorado to Gertrude Wineland and was adopted by Robert Greenman after his marriage to Gertrude. She was married to Leslie Parker in 1949 and married Ed Walsted in 1962. Her late-life partner was Mick Manning of Ari-zona. As an adult Laverne lived in Wyoming, California, Montana, Florida, Colorado, Washington, Arizona, as well as Idaho and Arkansas. Laverne is predeceased by her father, mother, sister, hus-band, and partner. She is survived by her son Bob Parker, his wife Lana Parker, and granddaughter Mika Parker, of Missouri; daughter Connie Earhart, her husband Doug Earhart of Shoshone, Idaho; as well as step daughter Vicki Sallade of Florida and grandson Jeremy of Texas. And of course her dear Puli dog Ebony, who happily lives on the Oregon beach; and Sphinx cats Meow Meow and Itty Bit-ty, who are with a loving family in Arkansas. No services are planned, at her request. She will be go-ing back to the Pacific Ocean that she loved. Special thanks go to Idaho Home Health and Hospice for their loving care, as well as the tremendous and caring staff at DeSano Place in Gooding. Laverne was truly a free spirit who loved shopping, trav-el, family, friends and her precious pets. She was one of a kind, the mold has been broken. Arrangements are under the care and direction of De-maray Funeral Service – Gooding Chapel.

Thanks to the Eddytor (editor) I guess I have been located within 20 miles of last week’s no-show
column. Waldo is still missing and I hope they can find Rock. Signs are posted everywhere... “WATCH FOR ROCK”. I came home from work last week, kicked my shoes off, and got out pen and paper (don’t have a computer) to produce my weekly letter. The time was slightly after midnight. The radio was on and so was the lamp. They were both on at 6:00 a.m. when I was suppose to be at work. My tablet and pen were sitting on my lap in the chair. Funny thing, the paper was just as blank as it was before I fell asleep. No secret spider like Charlotte of Charlotte’s Web or the “cricket” of Archy and Mehitabel had written my story. Even a Chicken Soup for the Soul could have filled my empty “Cup of Tee.” Being already late, I missed getting my letter in for the week... my apologies. I had to race (without the oval track) to get back in the tractor for another day’s harvesting. That particular day I was pushing and rolling green chop hay. Too many trucks de-livering to me to call in late for work. It is funny that I am older and I operate a tractor as part of my daily work, but as a kid, I never even had a toy tractor. Cur-rently, I have several tractors of my own (mostly antique tractor puller types). We lived downhill from the John Deere dealership, nearby the International dealership, and I passed the Allis-Chalmer dealership on my way to school, and on my way back home. At the Allis-Chalmer dealership the toys were displayed in the front window about kid high. I thought it would be nice if I had one of those toys. The dealer’s front window display probably added sales to parents of whining kids. As an adult I have toy tractors that still never got to be played with. They are behind glass on a shelf (dusting was a pain). These tractors behind the glass look just like they did at the dealership except they are adult high. My friend’s wife blames me for giving my friend the tractor bug and collecting over 40 toy tractors. He gets me one for my birthday every year. Maybe he does this to get even with me for the continual space I need. I even gave my friend - past now - one for his 80th birthday. He was happy to have it and displayed it above his coffee maker. Regardless, if I have created a desire for toy tractors in others, I have come to the conclusion of a few things: They don’t require hundreds of dollars a day in fuel to operate; I don’t have to have a large barn to store them in; Maintenance is minimal. I don’t feel obligated to make them function properly; The climate in their room of storage is consistent, with no extreme cold, heat, or other weather; I don’t need to spend sixteen hours-a-day or more with them. I’m not asleep now because of tractors, but I had better quit dreaming and get back to work in the tractor. This is my “Cup of Tee” T for Tractor.

said Abramovich. “The flows will provide excellent whitewater rafting opportu-nities.” Reservoir operators in southern Idaho are in the process of completing fi-nal fill while other res-ervoirs have peaked and are being drafted. Magic, Mackay and Salmon Falls Reservoirs are likely to run out of irrigation wa-ter in July. The natural lakes and reservoirs else-where in the state will fill or come close to fill-ing and should provide adequate irrigation sup-plies.

Highway Seal Coating in South-central Idaho SHOSHONE – With the construction season well un-derway, seal coats are scheduled to begin throughout south-central Idaho Monday (June 16). Drivers will encounter the work on Interstate 84 between Bliss and Wendell and between Twin Falls and Burley, U.S. 93 from the Nevada line to north of Rogerson and north of Idaho 25 in Jerome County, and on Idaho 75 north of Shoshone and south of Bellevue. Seal coats also will be ap-plied to recently paved areas on U.S. 30 between Buhl and Filer, near Hansen, on Idaho 24 south of Rupert and on Interstate 86 from I-84 to the Raft River interchange. On two-lane sections of highway, the road will be reduced to one lane with a pilot car guiding motorists. Drivers should watch for flaggers throughout construction zones. In areas of four lanes or more, there will be alternating lane closures and flaggers controlling traffic in various locations. In all areas of work, a 35-mph speed limit will be in effect. Observing posted speed limits and increasing following dis-tance will reduce the risk of windshield damage caused by loose gravel. Drivers are urged to use caution in all areas of seal coating. Most seal-coat operations will occur throughout the Mag-ic Valley throughout the next three weeks, but the work could extend through the end of August in some areas.
