Weekly DevotionalBy Mary Jane
“FEBRUARY LOVE”Thought for the week: To everything there is a season, and a time to
every purpose under the heaven; a time to love, and a time to hate; atime of war, and a time of peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1- 19. (KJV)
If the months of the year had colors - which they do for the monthsrepresenting jewelry stone. (Amethyst) - February should be every-thing RED; the stone should have been ruby! The month should benoted for LOVE.
There are more weddings in February than other months. LOVE likepaint, can make things beautiful, when you spread it, but it simplydries up when you don’t use it.
Red valentines, love and tempers (flushed red faces) and in Floridaits strawberry season, we see the fresh red strawberries arriving in theproduce section.
Red hot car sales, furniture sales and go red for women month, fightheart disease # 1 killer for women.
But not the weather, that’s when we often have the big, white snow,in the month of February; I wish - and it will come.
Fears of hazardous driving on ice covered roads and walks, schoolsclose and it seem as if your world has to take a calm and quiet break.
Some of the most notable presidents were born in February: Wash-ington, Lincoln, Harrison, and Reagan.
A good month for various soups and chili, hot spicy dishes to warmthe soul, when coming in from the cold.
Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and ha-tred therewith. Proverbs 15; 17
The word LOVE appears 310 times in the Bible (KJV) - don’t forgetto show your love to others this Valentine’s Day.
“We can do no great things - only small things with great LOVE.” -Mother Teresa
“The LOVE of wealth makes bitter men, the love of God, makes bet-ter men.” - W.L. Hudson
“Faith goes up the stairs that LOVE has made and looks out of thewindows which hope has opened.” - Charles SpurgeonPrayer: Thank you our great Father of LOVE, may we each give
more. Amen.
company if we decide to do an electronic sign,” said Canterbury.Councilmember Pat Wisman seemed on board with placing a new
sign.“I think it’d be a good idea to get bids on it,” he said.Wisman made a motion to receive bids, and councilmembers ap-
proved.The city also made motions to apply for two $15,000 grants, one
for the equipment, staging and promotion of the Pumpkin Festival,the other for facility upgrades and bleachers for Milton Little League.
The council approved the sending of applications to the West Vir-ginia Development Council for the 10 percent matching Commu-nity Partnership grants.
If approved, the city will pay $1,500 per grant.Councilmembers also participated in the second reading of the
amended ordinance, regarding stricter punishments for drug para-phernalia possession.
The next council meeting is Feb. 19.

Velma’s ViewBy Velma Kitchens
The Greenbrier RiverThe Greenbrier River is one of my favorite places to visit in West
Virginia. We have been to Watoga State Park many times and we al-ways have a good time. We like to go in the spring and the fall so wecan build a fire in the fireplace. The cabin gets so warm and cozyand all we do is sit around read, talk or just watch the fire burn.
There is no telephone reception and no TV in the cabins atWatoga. It is just a nice place to be alone and relax and enjoy themountains.
I like to walk or take short hikes. I haven’t been on a hike for a longtime but I think when the warmer weather gets here, I just may starthiking.
Speaking of hiking, I have always wanted to hike the AppalachianTrail. I don’t want to hike straight through as I am older now, but alittle at a time would do.
Anyway, the Greenbrier River is so pretty especially in the sum-mer. We went in June one year and it was not so warm, but not cold.When it is hotter and the river level is high you can float down theriver on inner tubes. One year we went and the water was six feetdeep on the other side, three feet deep in the middle and shallow onthe end where I got into the river.
I can’t swim so I stayed away from the six feet end. I am not crazy.The year before last we went and the water was so low you could
walk across from one end to the other.We took our lawn chairs and sat in the water. We don’t fish so it
wasn’t a problem for us, but the fish probably moved on down-stream.
We have stayed at The Greenbrier River Cabins which are alongthe river and we have enjoyed it every time.
Our cabin had a screened-in porch and the water running at nightwas so peaceful.
I did almost step on a snake while taking a walk - I thought I wastired, but I started running and got some strength back. Won't takea walk in sandals again! Should have put on my tennis shoes.
I recommend Watoga State Park and the Greenbrier River Cabinsto any who should venture to the mountains. Both Watoga State Parkand the Greenbrier River Cabins have websites so you can look themup and see what they both have to offer. There are other places tostay near the river, but those are the two where we have stayed.
West Virginia has so many places to see and many things to do.Get out and enjoy!
Dear Christin,My boyfriend and I have been
on-again-off-again for the past8 years or so. A couple monthsago we got back together andthings have been great. We haveboth dated other people duringour time apart and we have re-alized that we are meant to betogether. The problem is that hegot into some trouble awhileback and now he may be facingjail time. If he does go to jail Iknow he won’t be in there forlong, but I worry that this obsta-cle may be too much for our al-ready fragile relationship. Whatdo you think? Can a relationshipthat has already seen troublewithstand this kind of test?Sincerely,Rocky RoadDear Rocky,I think you just answered
your own question with onesimple word: Test. No matter ifyou have been together for eightyears or eight weeks, relation-ships are constantly beingtested. It is how you both han-dle this test that will determinehow strong your partnershiptruly is.
I believe that the strongestbonds are created when couplesare faced with dealing with eachother’s mistakes and flaws. Ex-cept for cheating (you reallycan’t come back from that in myopinion). But when one personis facing hard times, like in yourcase, it is indeed a test for theother person (you) to see if theycan handle their significantother at their worst.
My best advice for you, Rocky,is to step aside from your ownfeelings for a bit and try to seethings from your partner’s pointof view. If you really feel asthough the two of you weremeant to be together then it isimperative that you understandwhere he is coming from. Hemay not show it, but I’m bettingthat he is probably scared out ofhis mind about going to jail. Notonly that, but he is also proba-bly worried about how this willimpact his relationship withyou as well.
With that being said, youmust also consider your ownfeelings in this matter. Will yoube able to handle this situationwithout compromising too
much of your own happiness?Will you have resentment to-wards him for making you en-dure such an obstacle? After all,it is his mistakes that have ledyou both down this path. Theseare things that you are going tohave to think long and hardabout, looking deep withinyourself to find a conclusion.
I wish the best for you Rocky.After eight years, you and yourpartner have managed to findyour way back to each other. Itsounds like there’s somethingreally special there. And in myexperience, the more extraordi-nary something is, the harderyou have to work to keep it.Consider this to be the ultimatetest of your relationship. If youcan make it through this, youcan make it through anything! Ihave a feeling you will pass withflying colors. Just make surethat your partner doesn’t makea habit out of making you thinkso hard. Best of luck to youboth!

Poet’s Tool Why was I such a fool? Had good intentions to do one
thing. Cannot lose this beauty, timeless, priceless, and true.
Hurt the part I value the most, but I will never act arrogant. When someone portrays that
negative quality, his/her gift is meaningless.
Where is pointer? Not here and hurt. Lost and confused, such a shame.
Not that minor of an injury, need this as a part of my tool. Key form of one's survival, struggling to find this gift
again.
It kept on bleeding and I could-n't make it stop,
don't want to do this, but hadto do it.
I know something crucial mustbe done,
toying around with my physi-cal capacity.
Put the needle in my finger, slowly the deformity will cease. My skin felt like there was nee-
dle pulling thread, this was agitating me.
It was trapped inside the crazycat food can,
bizarre mishap caused puredestruction.
The five stitches didn't hold meback,
persistent as I have ever been.
Devastation to anyone withthis passion. Laura Steeb, NJ

Months of LoveJanuary can be a lovely monthThough cold winds may blowSweethearts nestled by the fire-
placeWhile dying embers glow.
February can be a month oflove
Traipsing through the snowBuying Valentine cards and
candyOr flowers or plants that grow.
March can be a lover’s month When zapped by Cupid’s bowOr by amorous longings for a
mateThe heart has made it so.
April can be a lively monthWith spring flowers that growCrocuses and daffodilsPeeking through leftover snow.
May is a lovable monthNature’s blossoming fashion
showDresses up the scenery,Brings happiness, seems apro-
pos.
June is a month of loveWhite wedding gowns to sewFirst night together or notForever love, a solemn vow.
July is a month of blasting loveWatching fireworks with a powJumping into each others armsWith hugs we do allow.
August is hot weather, match-ing love
Hollyhocks and humming-birds, oh, wow
Brilliant sun bakes everythingWipes sweat from the eyebrow.
September is a busy monthGoing back to school, a cowBut learning knowledge every
dayTo succeed is to know how.
October is tree leaf turns of loveIndian summer takes a bowLovers snuggle under a willow
treeAnd cherish every bough.
November brings chills of loveParents hugging kids born of
love they knowBefore the weather takes a turnSledding and riding the snow-
plow.
December gives credence to alove
Of God's gift to show us howTo follow the path of baby JesusLike Him, we in faith will grow.Floriana Hall, OH

The Cabell Standard Outdoors Tuesday, February 12, 2013 –Page 5
This column applies to real-leather boots only, not syntheticmaterials.
Leather is like your skin, be-cause it is skin. It can dry out andcrack with prolonged exposure toheat or sunlight, just like yourskin can – the main differencebeing, unlike your skin, yourboots cannot heal. The naturalfibers of leather will break downover time and exposure to dry-ness or even moisture over a pro-longed period of time willexpedite that process. Basicallyanything that will hurt your skinwill hurt leather - dryness, excessmoisture, ultraviolet light, ozone,acid, etc., but if you take care ofyour boots, they will last for years.
Your boots need to be clean,dry and well conditioned before
storing and they should be storedin a cool, dry place. Moisture, hu-midity and the mold they bringcan destroy a good pair of boots.
Usually I will clean my bootswith a damp cloth. If they are re-ally muddy – as they usually areafter a hunting trip – I'll cleanthem under running water in thesink with a toothbrush, while try-ing to minimize the amount ofwater they are exposed to. Then, Iclean them again with a dampcloth. I use a dry cloth to blotthem dry.
When I was a kid, my fatherwas a mechanic at a coal mineand he came home nearly everyday with his boots muddy andwet. My mother stuck a blow-dryer in the boots to dry them.Drying with heat is hard onleather and it's better, of course,to just let them air dry away fromheat sources and sunlight afterblotting with a dry cloth.
Once your leather is dry, youneed to re-condition it immedi-ately to replace the oils youwashed away. You also removeoils, although more slowly, duringnormal wear, so it's important torecondition your leather everythree months or so regardless.
I never do this, but you're sup-posed to never apply leather con-ditioner to the leather directly.You're supposed to apply it to adamp cloth and then rub it a lightcoat into the leather. Give it abouta half hour before applying an-other coat. Make sure you get alittle bit into all the nooks andcrannies, especially where leather
meets the sole. That's easy tooverlook, but where it’s neededmost. This is the specific reason Iuse a small amount of condi-tioner with a little brush insteadof the damp cloth.
You don't want too much con-ditioner on the leather, in fact youdon't want any of it to remain ontop of the leather because it at-tracts dirt and if you plan to shineit, it won't be able to absorb anypolish if it's saturated with condi-tioner.
The best product I have everused for conditioning leather isRed Wing Shoes All NaturalLeather Dressing, which I foundat Charleston Department Store.
Once you've conditioned yourleather, you can store it. If it'ssomething you will be wearingevery day, you should give it ashine.
Your boots need to be cleanand dry before you start. You canuse a damp cloth or brush toclean it. If they get damp duringthe cleaning, let them dry beforeapplying polish. You'll need a canof wax polish, brush for applyingpolish (mine is also horsehair)some cotton balls and a shinecloth.
Use your shoe polish brush tocover the entire boot or shoe witha generous amount of polish,making sure the color of the pol-ish matches the color of theleather. Cover it evenly and workthe polish into the seams. Give itabout 15 or 20 minutes to dry.
Brush the entire shoe or bootvigorously with a horsehair shine
brush. The object it to remove allexcess polish and leave only asmall film of polish on the outsideof the leather. This is the pointwhere my brother-in-law, whoserved in the Air Force for 6 years,would use a cotton ball to en-hance the shine of the heels andthe toes. The way he showed mewas he dipped the cotton ball inwater, and then squeezed out theexcess. Then he applied a littlepolish to the cotton and worked itinto the heel and toe. He repeatedthis, using a new cotton ball eachtime, until he was satisfied withthe shine.
Then use the shine cloth to buffup the rest of the boot or shoe.
Everybody has their ownmethod of shining boots. I do. Mygrandfather was a dedicatedboot-shiner. He served with the5th Regimental Combat Teamduring the Korean War, was a vet-eran of the Battle of OutpostHarry and never lost his Armytaste for shiny boots. When hedied last year, I inherited hisshoeshine kit, which I combinedwith mine.
There's plenty of stuff in thecombined kit that I don't use reg-ularly, but what I normally use is asmall horsehair applicator brush,three large horsehair brushes(which I've numbered so I usethem in the same order eachtime), one synthetic bristle brushand a piece of sheepskin.
After each step, I go on to an-other boot (I'm usually doing twoor three at time), then come backonce the others are finished with
that step.First I use the synthetic brush
to clean away any dirt, then thesmall brush to work a smallamount leather conditioner intothe leather. After that, I use thesame small brush to apply polish(as described above). After I let itsit for a few minutes, I brush vig-orously with brush No. 1, do theother boots, then brush No. 2, etc.
I got a shoeshine in Chicagoonce and the shoeshiner applieda small amount of a WD-40-likeoil to the leather before the laststep. He got an incredible shinethat way and ever since, I've doneit that way. I apply a smallamount of oil with the sheepskin,and then finish up with the lasthorsehair brush for the finalshine. If I want a really goodshine, I'll apply a few drops ofwater to the leather before thefinal brushing.
One advantage of using severalbrushes in succession is thatbrushes don't shine as well if theyare gunked up with too muchpolish and the early brushes takeup most of the excess polish. Ialso keep my brushes clean byputting that polish – and condi-tioner - back on the boots them-selves.
I polish my boots – as de-scribed above – every Saturday.Each morning, however, I give myboots a good going over with eachof the brushes. Thus, my bootsare continually polished and mybrushes constantly clean.Contact David Payne at david-

Outdoor roundupWaterfowl survey completed During the recently-completed
annual mid-winter waterfowl sur-vey, wildlife biologists counted5,252 ducks and 6,262 Canadageese, said Steve Wilson, West Vir-ginia Division of Natural Re-sources Waterfowl biologist.
“The number of ducks andgeese counted this year increased73 percent and 44 percent respec-tively compared to last year, andboth are well above the 10-yearaverage,” Wilson said. The in-crease was not unexpected due toweather fronts moving throughfrom the northwest in December.
Canada geese, mallards andblack ducks, as usual, were themost commonly observed speciesin the 2013 survey. Other water-fowl observed include: canvas-
back, scaup, ring-necked duck,redhead, bufflehead, wood duck,gadwall, mergansers and tundraswans. Nine adult and five juve-nile bald eagles were also ob-served.
The survey was conducted onJan. 7, 8, and 10 and included por-tions of the Kanawha, Ohio,Shenandoah and New Rivers aswell as Tygart and BluestoneLakes.
There has been quite an in-crease in the number of ducksseen on the lower Kanawha River.A total of 430 ducks were seen,compared with only 123 in 2009.A total of 216 geese were seen,compared with 59 last year and304 in 2009.
Trout StockingDespite some bone-chilling
weather and snow lately, the DNRhas managed to get a handful ofwaters stocked. Anderson Lake,Cranberry River and MiletreeLake were stocked in late Januaryand early February.
Work begins on new bridge atBabcock
Work is slated to begin thismonth for the bridge that spansGlade Creek near the Glade CreekGrist Mill at Babcock State Park.The mill is a popular destinationfor artists and photographers –I've even seen jigsaw puzzles withthe landmark mill.
The bridge accommodates ve-hicle and foot traffic to most of thefacilities at the park, such as therental cabins, the grist mill, BoleyLake, swimming pool, and the en-tire Sugar Camp Run Picnic Area.
Bridge replacement work by theWest Virginia Division of High-ways and Babcock personnel isexpected to be completed by theend of March.
Officials are trying to completethe work before the summer sea-son and hope to have it done bymid April when the park re-opens.
Babcock Superintendent Clin-ton Cochran said officials areworking to make sure that thenew bridge will look as much likethe original as is possible.
“Engineers have created a veryattractive design and special con-struction methods are going to beused to make this bridge very ap-pealing to the park user. The newbridge will compliment Babcockand the park’s natural setting andblend in very well with the adja-
cent Glade Creek Grist Mill.” Manns Creek and Boley Lake
are stocked with trout by the Divi-sion of Natural Resources. Thebridge construction will delaytrout stocking until April.
“Having trout stocking trucks,multiple anglers and constructionall in the same area is a recipe forinjury,” Cochran said. “Everyone’sunderstanding that we have got toget this project completed beforewe open for the season is reallyimportant for the park for years tocome.”
“Trout stocking will resume inApril after the bridge constructionis completed,” said Mike Shingle-ton, assistant chief for ColdwaterFish Management with DNR. Contact David Payne at david-

tar and strummed. The twangysound that resonated out of thewood was unmistakable. He wasofficially lost in the music.
After trying the custom guitar,Callicoat described the piece onthe body of the instrument thatgives it a special sound whentilted downward.
"This has a device that raisesthe pitch of a string, called the "B-Bender." It bends it up a wholestep, and this is nothing new, butto put it affordably on an acousticis a first," he explained. "The de-sign gives me hope for the world."
Both Callicoat and McCordhave played countless shows dur-ing the past three decades. But,their favorite aspect of music iswatching someone pick up an in-strument, learn and create songs.
"People are inspired to be cre-ative, and that's awesome towatch," said McCord. "The neatpart is watching them grow, de-velop and turn into songwritersand musicians."
The two friends offer all this inone rocking location, planted be-tween Huntington andCharleston.
"We wanted Barboursville, be-cause it was part of Cabell Countythat was close to the mall and outof Huntington," said McCord."This is a gathering place for mu-sicians."
After choosing the perfect in-strument, guests can learn the insand outs of it inside one of 10 stu-dios, built for one-on-one lessons.
"We teach between 300 to 350students a week on guitar, piano,
mandolin, keyboard, vocals andother instruments," said McCord.
The store also houses a repairshop where musicians can bringtheir instruments to have customwork done. The repair shop isopen Monday through Friday.Guests can also trade and sell in-struments in the store.
Callicoat described the essenceof Route 60 Music Company.
"It's a place for musicians togather, and it's about learning,"he said. "They can come and playand hangout with us."
Famous musicians Merle An-derson, Doyle Dykes, Dean Dillonand Larry Cordle have played inRoute 60 Music Co. in the past.
McCord looked toward thestore's large showroom andsmiled.
"It's nice to know you've cre-ated something from the groundup," he said. "It feels good."
McCord continued, "I'vewatched it grow and so far I'mpleased with the growing cus-tomer base and lots of really goodrepeat customers. People in thearea are good to us."
Winfield resident Rick Davis ad-mired some Martin and Tayloracoustic guitars in the store’shigh-end showroom.
"I come here because you canplug in and play and there's nohigh-pressure sales going on,"said Davis. "They're good peoplehere, and there are not manyplaces where you can find bothMartin and Taylor guitars in thesame facility."
He continued, "If you're look-
ing for good guitars, there's reallyno other place around."
McCord and Callicoat de-scribed the power and creativitytheir store offers.
"Music...It's a personal thingyou can enjoy for yourself, andyou can always do it," said Mc-Cord. "You have all your life."
Callicoat agreed."Music makes the world a bet-
ter place," he said.Route 60 Music Company sits
on 60 Peyton Street, toward theedge of Barboursville.
