News from the Board by Collin Riley

Happy May 2016, dear neighbors. Spring's regenerative vigor draws its conclusions, anticipating summer's commencement.

April was a lively, momentous month at the Hall. On Friday, April 15, the Pineda family hosted their annual Cinco de Mayo themed potluck, with their adult children, Yuri, Michael, and Cecilia, helping and in attendance, while Tiffany is serving in Germany. Vince and Delfina Pineda say this was the last Cinco de Mayo potluck they will host. Thank you, Pineda family. You impact us greatly as your children branch out to serve and impact our country and world. Food and company were terrific, with a piñata for our children and fine Spanish guitar and vocal music by Charles Ewing.

The Chicken Barbeque and White Elephant Auction on Sunday, April 24, was a lively and festive occasion. This fun event involves the cooperation of many Bryson neighbors and local suppliers. Classic cars on display, homemade desserts, food service by local youth, advertising and signage, cleanup and preparation, printing and administration, the myriad aspects of our joyous White Elephant Auction, not to mention the annual scholarship raffle quilt unveiling and the tremendous loving labor entailed in that — it’s a major event. Please join me in thanking our neighbors for their resourceful and skillful performances of these activities and for their selfless spirit. Thank you all, veteran and new, and special thanks to all in attendance.

May 20 at 7:00 pm at the Hall will be our next potluck. Please join us to meet and dine with friends and neighbors.

Thank you for the chance to serve in April 2016. See you at the Hall in May!

The monthly Hesperia Hall potluck dinner begins at 7:00 pm on Friday, May 20. Bring a dish to share and join friends and neighbors for a meal under the great oak.

Cinco de Mayo Potluck Sadly, the

Familia Pineda has hosted its last April potluck dinner at Hesperia Hall. Over the years, their Cinco de Mayo potluck has become one of the most festive and anticipated on the Hall schedule. With the active involvement of their four children, Vince and Delfina created a joyous, celebratory occasion, and regular attendees now feel that we had a small part in the growing up of Tiffany, Yuri, Cecilia, and Michael. As a Board member, Delfina, with husband Vince, continues to be very active, as do, for the time being, Yuri, Michael, and Cecilia, but they are moving into their individual lives. Tiffany, the oldest, is serving with the military in Germany; Hesperia Hall looks forward to her return. April’s potluck once again fulfilled expectations, and all who attended this year and in years past owe Familia Pineda appreciation for years of a job well done. Thank goodness we have not seen the last of them!

Think ahead, plan for the worst, and hope you won’t need it.

Fire season is upon us. In speaking with our local fire agencies, Bryson-Hesperia and Southern Monterey County are of grave concern to those who will respond

should fire begin in our area. The old-timers would figure about every forty years

there would be a “burn-off.” Well, there have been some burns here, most recently in 2009 when a fire began on the Bryson-Hesperia side of Interlake Road, hopped Interlake, traveled fast and viciously across the Planett Ranch, and burned on to Lake San Antonio. But a big burn off of Bryson-Hesperia itself has not happened since the late ‘50s, so history alone suggests we are overdue.

We all know about the 100-feet clearance. And we need to think of what we need if we have to leave quickly. Do you have paperwork, medicine, and irreplaceable items ready to go? Do you have a basic survival kit ready should, as many of us suspect, a fire come to Bryson and we need to stay in the canyon in an open area, but still see our homes burn? Have you thought about your animals? Can you get them out? Do they have ID so they can be reclaimed after a fire should you not be able to remove them and they do manage to survive?

These are only some items of concern, and we can never think of them all. What I know is that I saw that fire in 2009 and witnessed its speed. You won’t have time to gather anything up. Being prepared and ready is your best chance to outrun a wildfire. Think ahead.

For more preparedness ideas, you can go to FEMA and Red Cross web sites. Be safe and be ready.

homemade desserts, beer, wine, soft drinks, and snow cones. Visit with local artisans whose wares will be on display. There will be dancing to live music, and children will have a great time winning prizes at the game booths. The fiesta grounds have been upgraded with new shade covers over the dining area.

This event is a mission fundraiser, so please, no personal coolers permitted.

Measure A on June Ballot by Ed Buntz

There will be a Measure A on the June 7, 2016, ballot for registered voters that live in the San Antonio School District. San Antonio School is in Lockwood, was built in 1974, and teaches kindergarten through eighth grade.

Measure A is the first school bond measure to be put on a ballot for the local community. It will provide funds for repairing/replacing leaky roofs; bringing the classrooms up to current building codes; ensuring compliance with health, safety, and handicapped accessibility requirements; improving student access to computers and modern learning technologies; and remodeling the current library/cafeteria areas to better serve as a multi-purpose venue for school and community use as well as for modernizing and bringing the office and kitchen areas up to code. The funds will not be used to construct any new buildings or to pay for any teacher/staff salaries.

If you would like to schedule a tour of the school to see the problems and proposed improvements, call (831) 385-3051 to make an appointment.

News from FHL by Linda Plumb and Amy Phillips (Public Affairs Officer, FHL)

At the most recent Community Relations meeting, the Fort Hunter Liggett (FHL) Police Chief shared information about the Homeland Security Real ID Act. Until October 10, 2016, a California Driver’s License can be used at FHL to offer proof of identity for access. However, after that date, California drivers’ licenses will

not be honored as identity for access to any military base. To learn more about the Real ID requirements, it is best to go to https://dhs.gov/real-id-enforcement-brief, as new rules will also affect air travel in the future.

Fort Hunter Liggett is often looking for employees, and their preference is to hire locally if there are qualified applicants. Please go to www.usajobs.com to search for positions at Fort Hunter Liggett if you are interested. Some of the positions currently available include store workers at the Commissary and the PX and a recreation aid for FMWR (Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation). The Summer Hire Program is also active, and there are paid summer positions available for local youth either as laborers or clerks. For more information on the Summer Hire Program call (831) 386-2400.

Several large-scale exercises are scheduled in the May-June time frame, which will mean increased military traffic on and off post. We are reminded of these exercises, for safety, to drive carefully and not attempt to pass a convoy at excessive speeds.

It is also important that hunters at Fort Hunter Liggett remember, especially during these training exercises, to remain in the areas to which they have been assigned.

The second 75th Anniversary Celebration will be held on May 4 from 12:00 to 2:00 pm. Please go to the Visitor Center if you don't already have a pass and plan to arrive at least a half hour early. This celebration will focus on Lieutenant General Hunter Liggett, a decorated WWI veteran, and on the naming of the Fort.

Concert on Smith Road

Those who heard One Lane Bridge at a house concert on Smith Road in February 2015, or subsequently at a well-received concert at St. Luke’s Church in Jolon, will be interested to learn that the group will again perform at the home of Tom and Barbara Walters on Smith Road on Saturday, May 28. Virtuoso mandolinist Ashley Broder will be joining fiddler John Weed, guitarist William Coulter, and cellist

Ana Di Salvio. One Lane Bridge, this time playing as a quartet, is

familiar to us, first of all, because of its accomplished, virtuosic fiddler, John Weed, whom we know from performances in Little Black Train, Molly’s Revenge, and Story Road. William Coulter, with a Grammy on his resume, teaches guitar in the UC Santa Cruz Music Department, and Ana Di Salvio is a classically trained

cellist. Add accomplished mandolinist Ashly Broder, and you have a quartet to be reckoned with. This promises to be a musical evening worthy of our time and attention.

One Lane Bridge will perform at 53075 Smith Road on May 28 at 7:00 pm. Call (805) 472-2884, or email bwonsmith@gmail.com, for directions or further information. Suggested donation at the door is $15 per person. All proceeds go to the musicians. 2017 Bryson-Hesperia Community Calendar by Silas Denny

If you have never been to a Dutch Oven Dinner, you have no idea what you are missing. Last year there were around eighty-five cooks preparing all sorts of yummy treats ranging from chile verde to cinnamon rolls, all prepared in Dutch ovens. Cooking starts at noon. You are welcome to come and watch the cooking process, which is fascinating, and food will be served around 4:00 pm.

Medicinal Plants and Herbs A – Z: Birch by Esthela Comstock

The birch tree was dubbed “White Gold in the Boreal Forest” because of its beneficial biological effect. Birch has a wide variety of medicinal applications, which is reflective of its physical versatility in its being able to grow in a wide variety of conditions. It also has different qualities in different parts of the tree. The leaves, the twigs, bark, and the root are all used for medicine.

An infusion made from the leaves of the birch has been used as a diuretic and cleansing agent to the urinary tract. It has been used to dissolve kidney stones and to treat cystitis and other urinary tract infections. This infusion can also be used to cleanse the body of excess water. In addition, it has been used to treat gout, rheumatism, and mild arthritic pain. It can be drunk in spring as a refreshing and cleansing tonic, clearing the sluggishness of winter from the system.

The fermented sap of the birch tree also makes birch wine and country beers and spirits.

The decoction is also used as a sleeping aid before bed for insomnia and aids in purification of the blood. This same tea can also be used as a wash for skin complaints. If the skin problems are severe or chronic, a decoction of the bark can be used as a wash or added to the bath. In addition, the oil extracted from the buds or the bark can be used externally for acne, rheumatism, and gout.

The anti-stress action of birch bark has also been studied. Birch bark has positive effects on the bowel as well. A tea of the twigs and bark aids in ridding the

mouth of canker sores. Birch is one of the most useful of trees as well as one

of the most graceful. From paper to wine, baskets to yokes, and boats to vinegar, it has been a boon to people in the cold north for thousands of years.

Any treatments with any medicinal herb should only be done under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

Paso Robles’ Pioneer Beginnings An exhibit from the El Paso de Robles Area Historical Society at the Carnegie Library

Paso Robles was incorporated in 1889; however, its history has its beginnings many years before that. On May 20, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act into law, encouraging western migration by providing settlers 160 acres of public land. In exchange, homesteaders paid a small filing fee and were required to complete five years of continuous residence before receiving ownership of the land. The Act brought homesteaders from across the country into this area to make new lives for themselves.

They settled in areas where large tracts of land were ideal for farming and ranching. Many of these settlements were, by 1800’s standards, very remote, and homesteaders had to travel by horse and wagon many miles into nearby towns to purchase needed supplies.

News from the Hall May 2016

Of the areas we are spotlighting in our exhibit, Adelaida, Bryson-Hesperia, Creston, Estrella, and Shandon, most had small general stores, a post office, a church, and a school. However, despite these local amenities, it was often necessary to go into “town” for many of the items needed. Thus, over time, Paso Robles, with its growing population, variety of stores, hotels, and, most importantly, a railroad station, became the destination for those requiring supplies of all sorts for their ranches and farms.

Paso Robles grew and developed as a flourishing town due to the support of the many farming and ranching families throughout the area. So important was that support to the growth of Paso Robles that in 1931 the community, through the support of volunteers working with generous donations of time, materials, and money from individuals, businesses, churches, and service organizations, decided to provide a day of community friendship and a commemoration of the heritage of the Paso Robles area. Named Pioneer Day, the first celebration was held on October 12, 1931, and it became a day set aside to say "Thank You" to all of the people who supported the business and professional community of the area throughout the year. There were to be no charges for any of the many events held in the downtown park, and lunch would be provided at no cost. Pioneer Day is still celebrated each year in October.

Our exhibit celebrates all those hearty pioneers who worked the land, raised their families, built their local churches and schools, and, through their support, helped Paso Robles to grow and prosper into the thriving community it is today.

Admission is free. The Carnegie is open 10:00 am to 4:00pm, Sunday 11:00 to 3:00, closed Monday and Wednesday.

Window to the Wild by Craig Caster

What so gently wild / lifts spirits high? To see a swallow dance / against the sky... Or listen to the Thrasher's / song close by... Following the aerial acrobatics of swallows as they

take insects in the air can put most anyone in a good mood. A good place to find an invigorating colony of Cliff swallows is the big cliff grotto on Nacimiento Lake. Pack a tasty lunch and your binoculars and kayak west less than half a mile beyond the boat ramp. On the south bank you will see these delightful creatures nesting and feeding and crying out with their joyful calls.

They arrive in March, mate, and construct nests to raise their young. Their gourd-shaped nests are made of mud pellets and grass and lined with soft feathers and hair. A large nest may contain 1000 pellets or more, each representing one trip to and from the nest. The mud may have been found half a mile away. It's interesting to watch swallows drink on the fly simply by opening their beaks as they skim over the water. In the fall, when the young are fully fledged, swallows migrate back to Central and South America. Summer goes fast so, don't wait.

Compared to the swift-flying, social swallows, the California thrasher is an introspectively grounded individual, but equally uplifting in his own way. To listen to his song is absorbing, to say the least. They sing in rhyming couplets, repeating almost every phrase once before going on to the next. Researchers have documented the thrasher's ability to improvise over 2000 unique phrases in one session. This pattern not only assures identification but also produces a very pleasing effect. The variation in pitch and melody between couplets builds a beautiful rhapsody. Like the mockingbird, the California thrasher often includes the phrases of other birds in its songs. The flicker, house finch, quail, and goldfinch are a few whose songs are borrowed from. The cry of a coyote has even been observed in the thrashers mimicry repertoire.

The thrashers long curved bill is his calling card. It is used to rake or “thrash” leaf litter and dig for cutworms and other pests. Thrashers are fond of chaparral cover and prefer terrestrial movement to flight. Keep your eyes and ears open for his fine talents.

Cooking from the Garden: Garlic by Kate Snell

In the words of Georgie Selfridge, there is no such thing as too much garlic. It is relatively easy to grow as it has few pests, and the winter rains do much of the watering for you. In the fall, place cloves, point side up, two inches deep in well-prepared soil. Water as needed until harvest in the summer. You may pull some of your garlic in the spring to use the delicately flavored bulbs in subtle dishes. Some of my favorite recipes using garlic include broccoli with pasta, bami goring, pasta putanesca, Spanish rice, Szechuan pickle, yaki mandu, etc. The following is a relatively simple appetizer that can be modified* many ways.

Stuffed Mushrooms 20 crimini mushrooms 3-4 Tbsps. olive oil 1/3 cup bread crumbs 3-4 garlic cloves finely chopped 1/3 cup Marsala wine 1/3 cup grated Romano cheese Salt and ground pepper to taste

Remove stems from the mushrooms and finely chop. Place mushroom caps stem side down on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Place in 350-degree oven for 15 minutes. Sauté garlic in 2 Tbsps. of olive oil in small pan over medium heat for a couple of minutes, then add chopped stems and ground pepper. Continue cooking this mixture for about 5 more minutes. Empty contents of pan into small mixing bowl. Return pan to heat, add Marsala wine and deglaze. Cook wine until reduced by half, then add to mixing bowl. Add breadcrumbs to mixing bowl and combine. Place a teaspoon of filling into each mushroom cap, and top with a sprinkling of grated cheese. Place on baking sheet and return to the oven for ten minutes, until cheese has melted.

*You may use red/white wine or sherry instead of Marsala. Other grating cheeses may be used, such as Parmesan. Clams, crab, shrimp, walnuts, or sausage may be added to the filling.

San Antonio School 2015-2016 Second Trimester Honor Roll Penny Riley — 6th Grade Josh Riley — 7th Grade Fishing with Rich by Rich Lingor

When May claims its turn on the calendar, most of the spotted bass, white bass, and crappie at Lake Nacimiento have rotated through their spring spawning migrations. Targeting spawning zones and nearby staging areas produced fantastic results from very cooperative fish. One trip produced at least a hundred catch-and-release fish for me with other skilled anglers reporting similar success. There is usually a smaller part of the fish population that is late to the party and goes through the motions on the next moon phase. So you might catch some in the same zones, but most of the fish will be looking for food instead of a mate.

As May begins to knock on summer’s door, catfish, bluegill, and shad add more color to the fishing mosaic. The shad are the biggest part of the forage menu for all of the larger game fish. Shad begin their spawning ritual in May, and the game fish follow them. Lures that imitate the size, shape, and profile of a shad can pay their biggest dividends once the shad are on the move. Following the baitfish can be the biggest key to finding the game fish. Bluegill begin to spawn in early summer in some of the same shallow areas. Bluegill can be a worthy quarry for anglers equipped with lightweight tackle. They also become forage for opportunistic game fish. Some of the larger bass are caught by savvy anglers targeting bluegill spawning areas.

Catfish, bluegill, and red ear respond more readily to traditional organic baits, such as red worms and mealworms for the perch, and cut baits for the catfish, as the water temperatures warm.

Nacimiento 's water level is providing comfortable launching conditions. While there is plenty of water in Lake San Antonio, and there is enough water on the Harris Creek launch ramp, the lake remains closed. At the town hall meeting at the Lockwood Hall, County supervisor Simon Salinas said that, with the departure of

parks director Mark Marisol, that they may be able to find "creative ways to get the park open.” Supervisor Salinas and his assistant, Chris Lopez, indicated that they are in favor of opening the lake and that we need to get the remaining supervisors on board with the idea. They suggested that emails, phone calls, and letters might be helpful.

It's time to get out on the water. Tight lines!

As we look ahead to graduations and good byes, it is a reminder to us of how fast time goes. We hope we've made the best of it, and, as the Psalmist asked of God in Psalm 90:12, "So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom." We see how fast these young people grow and move off into adulthood, how little time there really is with them, and we always hope and pray that we've been faithful to play the part in their lives God has asked. These youth are such a precious

gift to our community, and we are truly blessed to be a part of a community and a Hall that supports them in so many ways.

Our summer plans are undecided right now. It is always a hard time to get many together. But we will be continuing our regular meetings through May for sure, and, hopefully, having a meal with each meeting. There are so many amazing cooks out there in Bryson and Lockwood! Any volunteers to cook a dinner for the youth group? We pay the costs; you just need to plan it, shop for it, and prepare it, either in advance or at True Life Christian Fellowship. There are also multiple youth camps available to local youth over the summer. Please don't hesitate to call us at (805) 472-9325 to inquire about our May dates, making a meal, or finding a camp over the summer.
