They were there for the inau-gural concert in the Sun Valley Artist Series’ inaugural Piano Festival.

With the example of Italian photographer and moun-taineer Vittorio Sella
leading him on, Ketchum resident Paul Potters recently spent 28 days trekking through Sagarmatha National Park in Nepal.
He and his son Tristan, who helped carry his gear, climbed 120,000 vertical feet, all told. And Potters shot 125 sheets of black and white film, zeroing in on Sher-pa boys, cremation bays, monkeys, and Mount Everest, also known as Chomolungma.
Twenty-five of those portraits of mythical, magical Nepal are currently being exhibited at Silver Creek Realty, 311 Leadville Ave., in Ketchum. Potters will be there during a special reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday.
He will be joined by Amanda Rene, a young graduate of a pho-tographic school, who is showing some abstract portraits of horses.
“This is our first exhibition fea-turing photography. I love Paul’s characterization of travel. He has a great eye to grasp the energy of the place,” said Levie Smith, who is with the Sun Valley Silver Creek Realty Group.
Potters’ trip through Nepal in October 2012 fulfilled a longtime dream dating back to when he climbed mountains in South Amer-ica, Alaska and the Canadian Rockies.
“I never got a chance to climb in Nepal as a young man because it

was complicated then. They didn’t really start opening up until the ‘90s when it became easier to do,” he said.
“My trip was also in response to the loss of my wife, Christina,” he added.
Potters’ wife, a former Ketchum city councilwoman, died at 55 in 2008 of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. She and Paul, married in 1974, had climbed together in New York’s Shawangunks.
Potters shows his eye for com-position in a picture of a Buddhist nun behind a statue of a mythical monkey figure in a monastery courtyard.
He says he got lucky with anoth-er picture that shows five monkeys hanging around a temple.
“Most people don’t see the fifth monkey. To get that photo, to have them pose like they did, was amaz-ing,” he said.
Potters said he was inspired by Sella, a photographer who lived from 1859 to 1943. Sella photographed expeditions in the Caucasus mountains, at Mount St. Elias in Alaska, and even a 1909 expedition to K2 and the Karakoram, carrying bulky 30-by-40-cm. photographic plates on modified pack saddles into the remote places.
Sella was the first to capture on film many of the mountains he photographed.
“He set the standard for anyone who wanted to do this kind of photography,” Potters said.

Cody Carter, a Wood River High School junior carry-ing a 3.5 grade point aver-
age, works hard for his money. That’s because he’s in business for himself and runs his own lawnmower operation. “It’s been really great,” Carter said. “It really motivates you to be your own boss and there is a really different level of satisfaction for you when you work for yourself.” Carter started the business during his freshman year at his father’s suggestion. “At first it was just for my parents and for one or two other people, but now it’s really blos-somed. I went from three accounts a week to now as many as 14 in one week and ranging from Bellevue to mid-valley. Basically, I just hand out flyers and get business by word of mouth.” It’s called Cody’s Lawn Mowing Business and you can reach him at 208.721.7417. The charge is $20 a lawn. “I use a push mower and work around my own schedule, which is really great. Because of the smoke last summer, I could go either early in the morning or in the early evening. It was my call.” The money earned will go to college and to buy a used truck. “It’s a 2002 Dodge Dakota and it feels good to know that I worked to pay for it. It’s just very reward-ing. It’s also a real help to have a vehicle that I can haul my equipment in up and down the valley. I’ll be starting up again in May so I’m ready for another busy season.”
Carter is also in his third year of being a member of Idaho Drug Free Youth. There are about 20 members from Wood River High School. As part of the program,
they are randomly tested for drugs and alcohol. “Basically, we give kids a chance to do fun things and not be under the pressure to go to parties and drink and drug. Instead, we stay busy with community service and have great planned activ-ities. The most fun I had was at the first activity I attended, which was a paint ball event near Jerome. It was a pretty memorable day. We also attended a Utah Jazz game in Salt Lake City. For community service, we help out with a lot of events and also put on a simulated party house to show adults how
difficult peer pressure can be in the youth culture. It’s pretty rewarding to use your time to help some-one else out. It also feels really good to be surround-ed by people who share your interest in being drug free. It’s the
right road to take.”If you really want to find
Carter it would probably be on a basketball court. The game is his true passion in life. He started playing in third grade and last season was co-captain of the varsity team. “I can play any-where, but mostly I play small forward.” Carter stands at 6 foot, 3 inches. “I get a chance to do everything – score, rebound and control the offense, if need be. I can also guard bigger players. I just love playing. I use it to clear my head and be less stressed. It’s a big part of my life and I think we have worked hard to turn around the program at Wood River. Things are really looking up.”
“It was amazing,” Verst said of the opportunity to play a Cather-ine Rollin piece before her classmates. “I love playing on the Fazioli because it has a magical feeling. Even the location of Susan’s house in Sun Valley… it’s not every day you get to perform magical music in a Sun Valley home.”
Spelius Gannon told those attending a reception later that night at Tod and Barbara Hamachek’s ultra-modern home overlooking the Big Wood River that the piano festival had long been a dream of hers.
“It’s an exciting gathering of talent and passionate piano lovers,” she said. “But the most important performance of the entire event took place today at 2 because that was the concert that introduced today’s youth to classical music.”

Each spring and summer throughout the Intermoun-tain West a small group
of young men and women toss college degrees, underpaying blue-collar jobs, significant oth-ers, and the lives they’ve known to the side. They pack up their belongings and head for the high country, where they inhale deep breaths of clean thin air and feel the true, unpaved ground under their feet for the first time in a long time. These young people have made a life decision and they feel good.
These fly-fishing guides that “live the good life” are the young men and women that once shared your children’s college classrooms, took your dinner order and vacated ever growing cities as fast as they could. Much like the trout they pursue, their mindset is wired in a way that they are only capable of grow-ing in proportion to the size of their surroundings. Growing up in a city that is ever growing around them, the proverbial fish bowl shrinks and restricts their growth. Only the wilds and the rivers have enough room for the ideals that these young people possess.
The other half of the guide pool consists of those young people who may be well past their youth. They are born into the wilds in and around the small towns and on rural farms and ranches spread throughout the American high country. These are individuals that have grown up falling in love with the nuance of where they live. They know when trout spawn on area creeks in the same fashion they know how to use a fork. There’s no true recollection of a moment in time when they recall “learn-ing” about the trout; it was just a part of life. They can go to a given spot by observing weather and a date on the calendar to find morel mushrooms, a covey of chukars, or the enormous trout that others would spend days and weeks looking for. Once they realized they could catch and release their trout, they found a sustainable occupation and a sustainable resource that would let them continue their love affair with their homeland while treading lightly on it.
Once a home river or wa-tershed is found, each of these young people begins a journey into these wilds that is hard to articulate. They spend every free moment of their subsistence living learning not just about trout, but about seasons, and
Consumedsnowpack. They become amateur entomologists, hydrologists, botanists, zoologists and are downright nerdy about their pro-fession. To eat well, they become gardeners and hunters, filling boxes with potatoes and onions for the winter and filling chest freezers with venison, waterfowl, upland game, and even an elk or a moose for the lucky few. They walk around with odd grins because they can’t stop thinking and talking about flies and fish-ing them. Room and board are simply a detail in their lives, like keeping gas in their truck. Fish and fishing consumes them.
Their homes consist of rented condos jammed to the corners with rods, waders, float tubes, fly-tying benches and clutter everywhere. Big Labrador and golden retrievers make their beds from piles of dirty laundry and fishing magazines that litter the foot of beds. More often than not, two, three and even four guides may share these dwell-ings, and the clutter expands exponentially. Old farm houses and cabins in the woods also become their refuge. With little insulation, inefficient heaters and long dark winters between guide seasons, splitting enough wood for woodstoves can make the difference between spending money on heating bills or spend-ing it on another rooster saddle for feathers to tie the coming season’s flies with.
Eventually, an endless cycle of used 4x4s enters their lives. They grow an attachment to these vehicles—a bond that is formed with every turn of the key that fulfills a promise by
Ford and Chevy to get them and their guests’ home from the wilds in time for dinner. When the vehicles finally become too beat up and unreliable, and when the money in truck parts being poured into one equals the amount of small car pay-ments, these fishing fiends will trade them in for a newer used version of the same rig. It is a bittersweet moment for them, as they have a feeling akin to a best friend moving away. Dirty tears roll down sunburnt cheeks and over ever-growing beards on the day of the trade-in.
It is an odd life for guides to live pure and poor, spending days with the ultra-rich and the well-to-do without bitterness or jealousy of those who have—people who often believe their guide’s life is richer than their own. They constantly let the guides know it by saying things like “never quit doing what you’re doing” or “I’m telling you, this is the life,” or “If I was twen-ty years old again…” The guides will grin and rarely acknowledge these statements, for they know they aren’t really there to live to a higher ideal of living while choosing poverty, so much as they are obsessive compulsive about trout and trout streams. The romance of living in the high country is a constant, but it is always superseded by thoughts of foam lines, hatching insects and wild trout.
The beginning of the guide’s day may be something like this: The guide and client arrive on a dirt road accessing a rarely

STORY AND PHOTOSBY KAREN BOSSICK
Doug Lewis is the holder of the longest airtime award, jumping 178 feet in the
middle of a Legend’s Downhill.He’s out-jumped 20 fellow
Olympians off a 60-foot ski jump in New York’s Battery Park.
And he once jumped 50 feet over a John Deere tractor in the Mad River Valley.
His biggest feats, however, are those of being a two-time Olym-pic downhiller in the 1984 and 1988 Olym-pics, a bronze medalist in the 1985 World Championships and a two-time U.S. National Downhill Champion in 1986 and 1987.
Now Lewis is trying to infuse youngsters with his drive.
To that end, he spoke to a lock-er room full of ski team kids and their parents at the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation’s Engl Training Center, while in town to compete in the 2014 Janss Pro-Am.
“I may have won my world
Doug Lewis: “I Didn’t Start Out Going 97 Miles An Hour.”
championship medal in 1985, but I really won it going back to when I was a youngster who took up ski racing at age 8,” he told the kids.
“I didn’t start out going 97 miles per hour. And I didn’t start winning right away, either,”
he said. “Ted Ligety, one of the greatest skiers competing today, will tell you he finished 72nd in a race at age 11.”
Lewis recalled how the first World Cup race he competed in he hit the chairlift tower going 50 miles an hour and broke his
back.“I learned that day I needed
to work out more. I needed to be bigger, stronger. I needed to ski smarter,” he said.
Lewis said he also benefitted from utilizing such sports psy-chology techniques as visualiza-
tion and focus. That’s how he was able to walk away from a friend who had sliced his finger and passed out from loss of blood to the starting gate a few minutes later and win second in the World Cup race.
“Train like you race. Race like you train,” said Lewis, who runs EliTeam Conditioning Camps—dryland camps for skiers—at the National Ability Center in Park City. “(Olympic gold medalist) Mike-ala Shiffrin trains so hard she thinks every training race is the real
thing. When it comes to a race, if she dials it back to 95 percent of her training race, she wins. She doesn’t get super-nervous because she’s got the jitters out in training.”
Doug Lewis shows off his 1984 Olympic sweater from Sarajevo at Saturday’s Janss Award Dinner at Sun Valley’s Limelight Room.
Doug Lewis, an alpine ski-racing analyst for NBC, got this Mexican Olympic uniform off a 55-year-old who raced for Mexico at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.
Doug Lewis exhorts his teammate to “look ahead” in the starting gate of the Janss race.

Michael Scullion is proud of what his drop-in radio station has done in its
first year.But, he says, there’s one thing
missing—a full-power anten-na on top of Bald Mountain that would truly make KDPI a community-wide radio reaching listeners from Galena Summit to Timmerman Hill.
To that end, KDPI—a listen-er-supported, non-commercial community radio—is holding an all-day Radiothon fund drive from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday.
At 5 p.m. the station will throw a celebration in its parking lot at 620 N. Main St. in Ketchum, featuring refresh-ments and live music by Jimmy Robb and Friends, who play Americana, folk, blues and rock.
“Our goal is to raise $10,000. It’s not the full $25,000 we need, but it’s a start,” said Scullion, general manager of KDPI.
KDPI went on the air on April 18, 2013. In the ensuing 12 months, it’s featured local politicians, musicians, artists, healthcare and wellness experts and other guests “in the chair and on the air.”
“Ketchum Mayor Nina Jonas

joins us every other week to inform us about the work at Ketchum City Hall. Host Dana DuGan welcomes a wide variety of guests from fellow 501c3 or-ganizations on her ‘For a Cause’ show. Organic farmers, chefs and health practitioners join Julie Johnson’s ‘Our Health Culture’ and Ellie Newman researches healthy interactions on ‘It’s a Relationship,’ ” Scullion said.
“Music, you ask? Where else on your dial will you find the incredible selection of tunes you hear on KDPI?” he added, tick-ing off such shows as The South-ern Lowdown, Blind Vinyl, Spun Valley, Ketchum Cruise, The Ripple Effect and Better Than the Alarm Clock—all of which play old and new, loud and soft, progressive and classic music.
Right now the radio station can be heard as far south as Ohio Gulch and as far north as the North Fork Store.
“The rest of the Wood River Valley deserves to hear Drop-In Radio, too, and it’s up to all of us to make that happen,” said Scullion.

A cold frame is a small, unheated greenhouse that creates a microclimate
by trapping solar energy to warm the plants inside. A cold frame also protects plants from potentially harsh environmental conditions.
Getting an early start on the outdoor growing season is prob-ably the most common benefit to hobbyist horticulturists who use a cold frame. With the use of a cold frame, gardeners can get their starts acclimated soon-er, which allows them to plant larger, more robust plants in the ground.
A favorite benefit of using a cold frame is it saves money. By using a cold frame to start
Cold Framesyour own seeds in the spring, you don’t have to purchase starts from a nursery. Extend-ing the growing season with a cold frame saves money, too. When using a cold frame in the fall, you extend your harvest of edibles, which negates having to buy them at the grocery store.
Cold frames are great but they are not a “set it and forget it” apparatus. There is a little work that is required to ensure your cold frame works for you and not against you. It is important to open a cold frame on warm, sun-ny days. A cold frame’s warmth and protection can be very inviting to insects and critters. Condensation is very common. This will cloud up transparent material and possibly create an environment for molds or fun-
gus. Regular cleanings should be scheduled to retain the transpar-ency and to reduce the chance of harboring unwanted pathogens.
Not all gardeners have the space or the means to have a greenhouse but every gardener could benefit from using a cold frame. Cold frames are easy to build and can take up as much or as little space as desired. Many cold frames are constructed from recycled materials which makes them free or very inexpensive. Cold frames allow gardeners to get an early start on the season, extend their season and save money. Those three reasons, combined with relatively easy accessibility, are why every horticulturist should have a cold frame.

A light snow started to fall on a recent afternoon, enough to wet every sur-
face. As the sun waned and it got colder, the flakes began to freeze to those wet surfaces. We had ice and snow. On waking, I saw dia-monds woven into the tapestry of morning. The crystalline world was transformed into a magical kingdom until it vanished in a few short hours like some fabled Shangri-la. By noon, it was all gone, like some perishable love, and we were back in the drab, just-waking world—mud season. This sweet whisper of winter’s goodbye will be echoed more than once in the coming weeks until it will pass out of hearing range and take up residence in the Andes.
Once the snow was gone and the temperatures returned to the low 50s, it was time to get to

work. There were so many things to do that a list of priorities was necessary. Every garden has its waiting list. There were several plots I couldn’t get to last year, about 200 square feet worth. Two of them were carpeted with charming, flowering weeds that formed a ground-hugging carpet. They look pretty for about two weeks, then they go to seed. I had to remove all of them so I could prep the soil for seeding. I threw the shallow-rooted weeds into a sieve, sifted out the soil, and the rest was composted for their nitrogen, a vital ingredient our soils lack. What I wanted was a meadow of montane grass-es with a sprinkling of wildflow-ers. I had all the seeds.
There had been a vegetable garden here 30 years ago, so the soil had tilth, it was free of rocks and it was dark in color. It was good lean soil that didn’t need improving. I sprinkled it with

an organic, mineral fertilizer. The seeds were scattered, topped with a little peat (soil condi-tioner also works) and watered. This will wake them up. Also, covering them protects them from hungry birds and scouring wind. There should be enough cold nights to ‘stratify’ the seeds. They need a period of cold before their sprout programs can kick in. Every seed and then every plant has an implanted timer, like my kitchen timer, that ba-sically regulates their seasonal behavior.
Because we seek simple explanations (it’s God’s will, or scientific determinism) we fail to factor in that plants and seeds also respond, on a cellular level, to every environmental
change no matter how minor. This is how evolution really takes place, one unseen step at a time until the steps accumulate, create pressure, and a dramatic ‘out of nowhere’ change occurs. Living things aren’t robots, and that includes us. Every day, in every moment of our lives, we are adapting to new realities, whether we know /like it or not. The living world has no attitude, it doesn’t politicize. Some of us may deny climate change, but our bodies, and the rest of the biota, are way ahead of us. They make their living—ante their survival—by paying attention to and responding to reality.

Susan Spelius Gannon and Steve Gannon invited the community into their Elk-
horn home, which they dubbed “Bluebell Hall” over the week-end.
And over 11 concerts, the in-augural Sun Valley Artist Series Piano Festival was born, the music that flowed through the house livestreamed to the world via a camera mounted on the top of the home’s spiral staircase.
Spelius Gannon compared the 6-foot-plus Johnandrew Slomins-ki to 6-foot-6 Sergei Rachmani-noff as she introduced him to the 80 listeners sitting on wooden folding chairs in a 15-minute question-and-answer session Saturday evening.
“I’m privileged to be on the faculty of Eastman School of Music,” he said in a lighthearted banter that included his love for cycling and cross-country skiing. “That’s where I got my bachelor degree, my master degree, my other master degree and my doctorate degree.”
Slominski, who grew up in Oregon, said he selected the music he performed because of the small, intimate venue, “which you don’t see that much anymore.”
Johannes Brahms, for instance, originally wrote for concert stage but in later years turned to more intimate pieces, such as “Klavierstuke.” Robert Schumann gradually began writ-ing more for himself, dedicating his “Six Fantasies” to his wife Clara.
And Frederic Chopin was a shy man who preferred to play in small, intimate settings. In fact, he performed his “Andante Spianato and Grande Polonaise
Piano Festival Pulls Off Debut In 9-Foot Grand Fashion
Brillante” with an orchestra at first. Then he eliminated the orchestra in favor of a quartet. Later, he got rid of the quartet altogether.
Slominski launched into the sprightly voluminous piece, his big hands seeming to cover the breadth of the keys.
At times, those same big hands turned unbelievably light and feathery, a blur above the piano keys.
Finally, Slominski launched
into what he called “dessert” comprised of George Gershwin’s “Embraceable You,” “The Man I Love” and “I Got Rhythm.”
He finished the trio of songs with a big bang—and a standing ovation.
“Pretty intimate… fun!” en-thused Craig Poulsen.
“Two great evenings of Cho-pin! The most incredible I’ve ever had,” added Tod Hamachek. “Very, very lovely idea. I didn’t have to enjoy this with 1,400
other people. This fits this com-munity well,”
No sooner than Slominski had finished an encore number, it seemed, then he was back at the piano playing for a new audience as the ever-expressive Andrea Lam of The Claremont Trio took her seat at the Fazioli perform-ing Saint Saens Piano Concerto in F Major.
During the night’s finale, Tara Kamangar played Grieg Piano Concerto in A Minor, her fingers flying deftly over the keys as pianist Norman Krieger played the “orchestra accompaniment” on the Steinway.
Some in the audience played imaginary keyboards in their laps as the smell of Velocio’s coffee drifted through the air and volunteers sliced cheese and poured reds and white from Frenchman’s Gulch Winery in preparation for the post-concert reception.
Keri Purpura said she expect-ed the concert to take her own piano playing to a new level: “To watch the world-class pianists up close will motivate and inspire me.”
“It was transcendent,” ex-claimed Janet Ross-Heiner.
“I loved the dueling pianos,” said Deb Bohrer.
“I don’t want it to end. I go home and I can’t sleep at night because I’m reliving it,” said Barbara Hamachek.
Even the pianists seemed to enjoy the setting in which they’d found themselves.
“It’s lovely,” said Fang-Fang Shi. “Susan is doing a wonderful thing bringing so much culture into this beautiful place. And I loved playing the Fazioli. It was like driving a Ferrari for the first time. It’s so easy it runs away with you.”
Johnandrew Slominski told listeners that J.S. Bach was not well known in his time—it was Felix Mendelssohn’s performances of his pieces that helped his music become known.
Tara Kamangar and Norman Krieger per-formed Grieg Piano Concerto in A Minor.
Susan Spelius Gannon told the audience that pianists had been practicing in her home since 8 in the morning.

The Sun Valley Center for the Arts is about to engage the community
in a series of conversations to see how it might need to revise plans for its proposed facility to better suit the needs of the community.
“We need to build a fa-cility for the community, not a facility for the Sun Valley Cen-ter for the Arts,” the center’s ar-tistic direc-tor Kristin Poole told about 50 people who crowded into The Center’s Ketchum facility Wednesday night.
The arts organization, now in its 40th year, is considering selling its property in the Sim-plot subdivision across from the Ketchum Post Office after owners refused to give them “a pass” on building an under-ground parking facility.
Board members and staff are also revisiting the original building plan to see if a new one would fill more community needs and allow for exponen-tial growth that has taken place since the original design was created.
The Sun Valley Summer Symphony and Sun Valley Op-era, for instance, have indicat-ed they would be interested in using space in a new building, Poole said.
When The Center acquired the land at Second Avenue and Fourth Street in 2006, it was “stuffed to the gills” at the property it has owned since 1993 at Fifth and Washington streets in Ketchum, said Poole.
The Center wanted to be able to stage exhibits that its current facility—an old house with low ceilings—didn’t allow.
Center To Seek Public Input On Building Plans
In addition, staff wanted to give people a multi-sensory experience, allowing them, for instance, to attend a lecture on fire and walk out of the auditorium into an exhibition room featuring art based around fire.
“It’s the difference between a
B experience and an A experi-ence,” said Poole.
The Center launched a fundraising campaign in 2007 as the Ketchum City Council approved a design that includ-ed a 400-seat auditorium in a 25,000-square-foot building. It raised $6.5 million in gifts and pledges during its first two years before suspending the campaign during the recession. The Center had realized 40 percent of its goal through lead gift fundraising by 2010, said Sally Boettger, The Center’s former director.
But Simplot Ketchum Prop-erties has refused to budge over a requirement to build 36 underground parking spaces that would cost more than $1 million, even though there is plenty of on-street parking and the nearby Hemingway Elementary School parking lot would be available for use in evening hours, said Poole.
Feeling that was not a good use of donors’ money, the board recently voted to end negotia-tions after 19 months of talks with Simplot and the city.
Additionally, things have changed since 2006, causing board members to reexamine the proposed facility.
The Center has instituted a successful lecture series that draws more than 400 people to the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood for each lecture. It’s
developed a new film pro-gram. It’s planning sympo-siums. It’s merged with Company of Fools theater group. Its school tours have increased to 35.
In 2010, it served 24,500 people. Three years lat-er, it was serving
more than 32,000.“Originally, the Center was
perceived as an elitist organi-zation for wealthy people. The majority of our users are now in the Blaine County schools,” said Poole. “We developed a facility in the old Ezra Pound house (in Hailey) to make sure families in the South Valley are served. And we have increased our number of in-school residencies with mu-sicians, writers and artists.”
The Center will then likely spend “the better part of the year” engaging different community groups in public meetings determining what’s needed to meet The Center’s future needs and those of the entire community, said Tod Hamachek, The Center’s former board president and campaign chair.
Hailey resident Jeanne Mey-ers, who was among those at-tending Wednesday’s meeting, said she wanted to see things move as fast as possible: “I feel like there is an urgency.”
When Bill Janss bought Sun Valley, he said you can’t build a community strictly around a beautiful mountain. He said you need arts and culture, said Kristin Poole. People now buy homes and stay in the Sun Valley area because of the arts and cultural programs offered by such organizations as the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, she added.
The lot where the Sun Valley Center had planned to build its new facility has boasted an art piece made of local willows for a few years.
Beyond GMO Purchase Will Benefit ERC
Student Conservation Council
Ketchum, Idaho— The Environmental Resource Center (ERC) invites you to stop by in the next few weeks to experience Beyond GMO, an evocative artwork by local artist Deborra. In this multi-media piece, vintage barbed wire strung in the foreground of a worn tractor cowling separates the viewer from a painting of lush and distant corn fields under turbulent skies. Warning us further about the appealing but ultimately unsafe corn are empty insect poison bottles and a seed corn advertisement wrapped in more barbed wire. Beyond GMO’s broken brushstrokes invite us into the corn leaf to ponder cellular-level changes. The artist explained that these added elements represent “all the bad things between us and the beauty and memory of an unspoiled and simpler world.”
Deborra explains further that “Art is the reflection of life that resides in all of us.….My paintings are a glimpse into the core of human perception with color and images that provoke thoughts and memories of the past…and hopes that linger just out of reach in the future. Adding layer upon layer of color, the depth of paint reveals the life of the subject. As the image emerges, there is that wonderful moment, ‘Ahh….there you are.’”
Deborra wears another hat (and another name, Deb Bohrer), as a member of the ERC Board of Directors and a longtime supporter of the ERC. Bohrer has offered to donate 30% of the purchase price of the painting to the ERC to support ERC programs. ERC is known for Green Community programming such as Clean Sweep, Recycling at Special Events, Pick Up for the Planet (PUP) and the newly an-nounced Pesticide Action program.
Please stop by to see this thought-provoking work at the ERC offices at 471 N Washington Ave in Ketchum. Also see Deborra’s art piece on Facebook.com/ERC Sun Valley.
BRIEF

The Wood River Land Trust’s Student Conservation Council pro-vides an excellent opportunity for the youth of the valley to become involved with conservation and preservation. These high school stu-dents dedicate one hour per month to student led meetings to discuss their objectives and projects as a group. Most recently, the group has been working on a project called Students for Seedlings. The goal of this project is to raise money to help replant at least 20 acres of the land damaged by the devastating Beaver Creek Fire that ripped through the valley last summer.

Fishing RepoRtTHE “WEEKLY” FISHING REPORT FOR APR. 16 FROM PICABO ANGLER
Spring around the Wood River Valley means limited fishing on the
rivers, but we still have a lot of places to fish and have some fun! With most rivers closed for spawning activity now is a good time to think about our Stillwater fisheries.
Magic Reservoir is among the best Stillwater locals in Idaho to fish. The Rainbows and Browns in here grow big, they grow fast and they fight like champs. Throw in the opportunity for some tasty Perch or Bass while fishing and anglers can find a lot of fun here. Fishing can be done from boats, float tubes or the shoreline. Our favorite technique for these fish is to pull stream-ers through the water. Tar-get channels that you can see coming from the shore that continue underwater, also look at any partially submerged willows, rock walls or other structure. The fish are almost always in the top 12 feet of the water column, so no need to fish very deep. Simple wooly buggers in black or olive work great. Cast out and vary your strip and depth of retrieve until you hook up. Once you do, continue at that depth and with the strip that worked. This can be fast one day, slow one day or somewhere in between.
Other great reservoirs to fish include Mackay Reser-voir, Little Wood Reservoir, Anderson Ranch Reservoir, Fish Creek Reservoir and sometime Mormon Reser-voir. The technique is the same across the board on these and the flies as well. If you want to try some-thing very different think about Carp fishing near Hagerman on the Snake River or Bass fishing on Carey Lake or Anderson Ranch. The techniques for Bass are nearly identical as trout fishing Stillwater.
If you must fishing moving water then we suggest a few things, make the drive to the Lost and fish in Mackay where the Spring Baetis and Midges are going off. Try heading down the desert stretch on the Little Wood and fish small streamers or head on over the hill to Stanley and try your hand at Steelhead fishing with a fly.
Regardless of what you do, just keep in mind that this is a fabulous time of the season to get away from the norm and explore a little or a lot! You will find lots of hungry fish that want to fatten up after a long winter!
Happy Fishing Everyone!

STORY AND PHOTOSBY KAREN BOSSICK
Sun Valley Center for the Arts staff and Company of Fools artists program each
year’s lineup around big ideas, “because we want to get as many of you engaged as possible,” The Center’s artistic director, Kristin Poole, told those attending the annual Fools Day Party last week.
“It’s become a model that the nation is following,” she added.
For instance, an upcoming exhibition on The Brain will feature art focusing on vision, memory and other aspects. There’ll be a symposium on is-sues related to the emerging field of brain science, and NPR Radio correspondent Shankar Vedan-tam and author of “The Hidden Brain” will talk about how the brain shapes everyday life. And Company of Fools will present “Proof,” a play about a young woman who fears she may have inherited her father insanity, as well as his genius.
A hundred people turned out on a drizzly evening last week for the annual Fools Day Party announcing this coming year’s lineup of Company of Fools plays. The Sun Valley Center for the Arts also announced its up-coming exhibitions, summer and winter concerts and lectures.
The Michael Franti & Spear-head concert on July 2 will be coupled with morning yoga, probably at Trail Creek Cabin, said Kristine Bretall, who books the concerts. There will probably be a few more bands added to the concert that night so it will start earlier, she added.
Brian Sanders’ JUNK perfor-mance on March 18 will bring dance to the Valley in a very physical, very accessible way, she said.
Local Arts Planning A Model For The Nation
“The winter performances are a different animal from the sum-mer concerts because many of the musicians we bring in work with the students,” she added. “They hang out and tell the students: ‘If you hold your bow this way, you’ll get a different sound.’ ”
The Fools will stage “En-chanted April” July 1 through 26 at The Liberty Theatre. Then it will hold an encore perfor-mance of “Shirley Valentine,”
a one-woman show featuring Denise Simone, for three nights, Aug. 7 through 9.
“If your budget doesn’t allow you to take your sweetheart to a far-off place, bring her here instead and we’ll do it for you,” said Simone, about the two plays.
To see the full lineup of plays, lectures and concerts, check out the April 2 edition of “The Weekly Sun.”
These sugar cookies shaped into umbrellas fit perfectly with the drizzly evening outside.
Two spreads of cookies—a few of them savory—greeted those attending the annual Fools Day Party at The Liberty Theatre.
Kris Olenick and Janis Moulton check out the cookies.
Ali and Satchel Swindley check out one of the cookies offered during the Fools Day Party.
Aleczander Hanks and Alexykai Obland were among those attending the Fools Day Party. The kids are big fans of Fools’ performances, having attended “Snowflake” and other plays. tws

Sun Valley’s Race Depart-ment wowed tourists and locals alike last week with
the amount of netting it strung along Upper, Mid and Lower Warm Springs for the Western Region Spring Series.
The series brought the best ski racers in the West, including Olympic silver medalist Andrew Weibrecht, to Sun Valley this past week.
Jack Sibbach said workers strung 250 rolls of netting, each 30 feet long and 7 feet tall.
That’s nearly a mile and a half of netting.
Warm Springs was covered in orange during last week’s Super-G race.
Color Warm Springs In Orange
Sibbach said Sun Valley got much of the netting from its sister resort in Utah—Snowba-sin—which hosted the downhill for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City. Sun Valley also had some of its own.
Tara Haferman, a competitor from Bozeman, Mont., described the course as “turny and l-o-n-g.”
Haferman finished 23rd.The race was the first major
race Sun Valley has hosted since 1999, observers said. It served as a warm-up for the National Alpine Ski Championships, which Sun Valley will host in 2016.

Even though they’ve seen these rods and reels on a daily basis, they still feel their heart jump with ecstasy just for a moment at the sheer beauty of them and expectation for the day ahead. If you’re talking to them while they are in this short trance, they will ask you to repeat yourself. They will not have heard you because their world continually shuts down into little minuets of medita-tion during the day when these personal and beautiful moments strike them. It may happen as they watch you fight a fish, or when they see a fish invisible to you slash at a nymph 3 feet under fast-moving water. It may be watching the way autumn leaves stack in perfect order on the upstream side of rocks.
Fly-fishing guides are addicts, addicted to the natural world. They are incomplete without be-ing able to step into cold waters with a poker face. They need to hear and feel wind blow through river corridors. Yet, despite the bond to nature, they are also just as bonded to their fellow human in a very global sense. They want badly to share their outlook for a peaceful world where everyone can take the time to experience an inner peace and contentment. Walt Whitman wrote of the need for the human touch, the need to put an arm around a fellow human. It is this kinship that the fly-fishing guide celebrates. Every trout a bonding experience and a shout to the world that any
tws
two people can get along with a common goal.
It is easy to make a friend for life when you spend a few days with a guide. All they really want to do is share their land with you. The trout are the tool that they use to drag your soul through the interior of their Nirvana.
When you see the morning and evening light reflecting against the sides of green rushes and willows, you are seeing what they see. When you take the time to stop and distinguish the separate colors and patterns on the side of a big brown or rainbow trout, you are seeing what they see. When you notice the mood lighten a little when you feel the change from a paved to a dirt road under truck tires, you feel what they feel. When you smell a campfire in the distance and immediately long to be standing next to it, you feel what they feel. When a perfectly floating fly that you cast with a delicate presentation is accepted nonchalantly by a massive trout in a high-country stream, and the line pulls tight, and the fish runs hard, bending the fly rod in half, and leaps and twists, hitting the water with a massive splash, only to charge off again, and you do everything right, and the fish begins to give in a little, and you bring the fish to hand, and slide a hand under its belly and slide the fly out of its mouth, and let the fish slip back into the river, and then you look up and see your guide bent over you with bright eyes and a big smile because they are so happy for you and they pat you on the shoulder and shake your hand as you rise, you will feel just like them—consumed.

In the fine new film The In-visible Woman, we have a closer look at the great English writer, Charles Dickens, than we have ever been afforded before. Taken from historical truth and based on the 1990 biography written by Claire Tomalin, the movie tells of the 13-year affair between the writer and his mistress, Ellen Ternan – 28 years his junior. The two met doing a production of his play The Frozen Deep when he was 45 and she was 18. As directed by Ralph Fiennes, who also portrays Dickens, the
The Great Artist
Rating:period piece will definitely be appealing to fans of Masterpiece Theater and the Merchant Ivory films.
The film opens in 1876—six years after the author’s death—on a beach in Margate, England, where the adult Ternan, played by Felicity Jones, pensively walks a beach while her stu-dents wait for her to rehearse a production of the aforementioned The Frozen Deep. The movie then flashes back to their meet-ing on the same production. We then follow the development and fruition of this forbidden affair in Victorian England. Fiennes has a tremendous sense of the period and the mores of a society that could destroy a young wom-an for such indiscretions. We are
also given a sense of the great man who appears to almost be a rock star in that day and age, yet is also saddled with a loveless marriage and with nowhere to turn.
Fiennes is working off a great script by Abi Morgan (The Iron Lady) and is also served admira-bly by his cinematographer, Rob Hardy. The performances are also strong. Directing yourself is a difficult task, but Fiennes han-dles it effortlessly and he turns in one of the best and nuanced performances of his career. Jones is the perfect choice for Ternan and together their chemistry is excellent. If you are a fan of pe-riod pieces, or of Dickens’ work, this one is for you.

The snow curtain falls on Mount Baldy this week as the 2013/2014 winter
season comes to an end. The “snow gods” concentrated on the East Coast this season, gifting ski resorts there but also wreak-ing havoc from the Carolinas to Maine. We didn’t have havoc and we didn’t have much snow. How-ever, thanks to Mr. Holding’s snowmaking machines, the Sun Valley Company survived. The local merchants kind of took a bath as down here on the valley floor we enjoyed a mild winter with less stress than normal and that was okay.
And, now it’s time to get those taxes in. I hope you all made the deadline last night. If not, may Barack Obama have mercy on your soul. The man at H & R Block laughed as he leafed through my 2013 return, saying, “Well, Mr. Millspaugh, for the first time you are not required to file, as your yearly income made the poverty level.”
“Oh,” I said, “I’m a winner.”During this period of final-
ization and change, the in-laws decided it would be a good time to visit (what fun). “Okay, here’s the Lodge. Here’s where you
Changes Of The Yearthe way i see it
would ski if it the lifts weren’t shutting down. Now, let’s go visit The Gold Mine. Later, we will drive north of town to see the mountains. I’d love to take you all to dinner but, well, there’s that poverty line problem.”
“Didn’t you invest in a retire-ment plan?” “No, my plan was to get through each week without being thrown into the street.” “Don’t you regret staying in a resort town so long?” “You mean there was another choice?”
But all worked out well and I got them to the airport in time for their Sunday morning plane back to the city. I left them there at the depart line on Friday night. “Have I erred?”
Now, we have the warm season and thoughts turn to gardening, lawn care and home improvements. These are good thoughts. I won’t do anything of this nature, but I do enjoy the good thoughts. If you have any good thoughts, please send them to The Weekly Sun in care of me. “Lord, let me get through the summertime…” Love, Dr. Spa

Before any athletic prac-tice or competition, it is common to see rows of
athletes lined up in the training room having their ankles, wrists or other various joints taped so they can go play. As an athlete, you don’t think much about it ex-cept that you need to get to prac-tice early in order to be ready on time. Every day before college gymnastics practice I would stop into the training room with my teammates to have my ankle taped.
What was wrong with my an-kle? I didn’t have any idea. Was I doing any therapy on my ankle to recover so I wouldn’t have to tape it? Absolutely not. Taping was expected and accepted in my athletic community; not something to be avoided, but just a normal part of the game. The underlying belief is that the body is weak and must be braced from the outside. It needs external support to compensate for a lack of internal stability.
What happens when a joint is immobilized for the sake of sports participation? Taping is a Band-Aid to allow the game to go on. My taped ankle lacked its natural function and range of motion; however, the demands
to your health
Joint Pain, Taping And The Long-Term Consequences
of my sport did not decrease. I continued to ask my body to do the same amount of work at the same intensity without full use of my ankle—perfect situation for developing lasting muscular compensations that will over-stress the joints above not to mention the damage occurring to the ankle itself.
Restricting the motion in a joint is not a long-term solution to pain. Taping will help athletes return to the field, court or trail but should only be used short-term while the injury is healing. And it should be done in conjunc-tion with rehabilitation. Perpet-ual taping weakens the joint, furthering the imbalance and prolonging the recovery. Depen-dance on this aid sets athletes up for future pain and disability. Internal joint stability can and should be regained so the athlete does not become dependent on taping.
Joint taping not only caus-es physical damage but also impacts the athlete’s psyche. The lesson is to ignore pain, to dissociate from the sensations in your body. If something hurts, brace it and go on. The phrase “no pain, no gain” runs deep and strong in sports. The habits and mentality developed during the formative athletic years regard-
ing pain and injuries are hard to break and tend to stay for life. As we age, we may no longer tape our joints but graduate to store-bought or prescription restrictive braces, pain-relieving medications, numbing injections, surgery and joint replacements.
I would like to see the day when young athletes are taught to respect their bodies and not play through the pain—to ad-dress their stability and mobility issues to regain optimal health. And even more ideally, correct the imbalances before the body is hurt. This will enhance their ability to enjoy lifelong, pain-free athletics.

Even the balcony filled as Dick Brown conducted his final major performance
with the Caritas Chorale Satur-day and Sunday at the Church of the Big Wood.
The trumpet blasted as some 70 choir members sang the “Hallelujah Chorus” announcing Christ’s resurrection and the defeat of death.
“We are so blessed because we got to sing Handel’s ‘Messi-ah’ with a full orchestra…with conductor Dick Brown,” Dick Brightman told the choir.
The piece was not an easy one to sing, confessed Dr. Bart Adrian. Not with a score that featured four or five singing

parts per page, in addition to the orchestra parts.
“You really had to pay atten-tion to make sure you didn’t get lost,” he said.
The Chorale will hold a spring fundraiser featuring such fa-miliar tunes as “Dixie,” “Battle Hymn of the Republic” and some Gershwin numbers, June 7-8 at Gail Severn Gallery.
It will stage its fall fundraiser under its new conductor R.L. Rowsey, “It’s a Grand Night for Singing,” on Sept. 7 of this year.
Dick Brown conducted his last major perfor-mance with the Caritas Chorale on Sunday, although he will join with R.L. Rowsey in the chorale’s spring fundraiser in early June.
The Caritas Chorale performed with an orchestra composed primarily of musicians from the Boise Philharmonic.
Louisa Waycott, a mezzo-soprano who joined the Chorale as an alto chorister in eighth grade, returned from New York City where she has performed with a couple operas, to be a soloist in the Palm Sunday Weekend concerts.tws

“WOW-STUDENTS PARTNERS WITH NONPROFITS TO CREATE GENEROSITY
Meet the Valley: Richard Odom
When Barge Levy started the Alternative School in the Blaine County School District, he asked me
if I would like to volunteer a weekly yoga class for the students. Through trial and error I found that the students most benefitted from a guided deep relaxation. They often arrived with unique home/life challenges and the mental clarity that resulted from my session enabled them to better focus on academics.
I continue to run into those students from time to time and many still use these skills. One student, facing difficult medical surgery, reported that the use of my class closure “my body is strong, my mind is at peace” was foremost on his mind through recovery. A young woman reported doing the same through child birth. My personal favorite was the young man, now a U.S. Army Ranger, who repeated it to overcome his terror of jumping out of airplanes.
Their stories trump my own and everyday I express gratitude for having them as my teachers. Lest we forget...generosity comes in many forms!

Vault Toilet Screens: Kaz Thea, Local Wildlife Biologist, Partners With the ERC,
Forest Service and Wow-Students
WOW-Students mission is to inspire and expand generosity in Blaine County. WOW empowers students to make a difference and take responsibility
for their community, inspiring others to follow.
Like us on Facebookwow-students.org WOW-students is a 501c3 non-profit
The sun is shining and ski season is coming to an end. This means summer is right
around the corner opening up a whole new world of trails, lakes and camping. As we start this transition it is time to think about how we can help make our summer activities as enjoyable as possible, and there are many opportunities to help our community and surrounding
wilderness areas.
Local wildlife biologist, Kaz Thea, is an avid outdoor enthusiast. Having worked for the US Fish and Wildlife Service for many years, she is dedicating her spring and summer, through a partnership with the Environmental Resource Center and WOW-Students, to making sure our birds and small mammals are protected by installing screens on the Forest Service toilets throughout the valley and the greater Sawtooth Valley.
While this may sound like a dirty job, Kaz, along with the help of
local students and citizens, is hoping to install small screens on the top of the vents that will hinder birds and small mammals from nesting, and ultimately getting stuck.
Each year thousands of cavity nesting animals that
prefer small dark spaces for nesting and roosting become
entrapped in the vertical open-ended pipes that serve
as ventilation for the toilets at area campgrounds and picnic
sites.
The Teton Raptor Center located in Jackson Hole, Wyoming has designed screens to fit on the open end of these ventilation pipes to prevent cavity-nesting species from entering the pipes and becoming entrapped within the toilets and pipe structures. The screens can be permanently secured to the top of the pipes without compromising proper ventilation. Each screen costs about $30, however there is a lot of time involved in measuring and installing each one.
From the Adams Gulch and Fox Creek Trailheads, to the Redfish and Alturas campgrounds, there are hundreds of public use toilets that will need screens installed. Students from the Community School’s 9th grade science class, Lower Elementary at Montessori, the Water Club from the Wood River High School, and the 6th and 7th grade at Sage School will all participate in field days to help count, measure and install the screens throughout the valley.
WOW-Students is continuously partnering with local non-profits on educational generosity projects that are bettering our valley. This is a great example of a collaborative effort working to solve this simple problem and the conservation affect will be both immediate and positive.
For more information on how you can help collaborate with this project, please contact Kaz Thea at [email protected]

Alzheimer’s patients have four times the level of toxins, like the pesticide DDT, in their blood than a healthy person. Parkinson’s and endometriosis have been linked to pesticides. And infant formula and baby foods are often full of toxins that could cause inflammation and di-abetes, according to researchers from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine.
Researchers have identified more than a thousand chemicals in some newborns’ blood, said Dore.
And, if that’s not enough, Julie Johnson, a nutritionist and owner of NourishMe health food store in Ketchum, offers physician John Apsley’s book, ”Fukushima Meltdown and Mod-ern Radiation,” which cites the potential dangers from Japanese radiation brought to the Pacific Northwest on the jetstream.
One of the misconceptions is that if you eat a healthy diet you don’t need to cleanse, said Maricich. But the study of epi-genetics is showing that envi-ronmental things are more apt to cause health problems than family genetics, she said:
“We get a lot of bad things from plastics, pesticides and her-bicides, and petrochemicals that end up in the air from gasoline. I can look out my window right now and see planes dispensing a strand of chemicals in the air. These accumulate in cells. Even things like lack of sleep and trauma can add up, leading to heart disease and dementia.”
“Our body cleans out toxins on a daily basis. But over time our systems get gunked up just like our cars. No one would ever say they would never need to change their car filter over the life of their car. Why wouldn’t you treat your body as well?” added Dore.
Local practitioners are offering lots of different ways to spring cleanse, depending on what kind of a detox experience an individual needs and depend-ing on how much they’re willing to spring for. They range in cost from merely changing a few foods in the diet to $450.
Herbalist Tifney Stewart and nutritionist Jessica Soine offer a spring cleanse that Stewart
describes as “more vegan.” She couples it with classes in which she brings in guest speakers from the medical community and fitness community to introduce clients to yoga and other regi-mens they can incorporate into their lives.
She and Lauri Bunting also offer cooking demonstrations. This time around, for instance, they will show how to make veggie lasagna using zucchini instead of pasta noodles and ricotta made out of macadamia nuts. In fall they teach clients how to make a Thai curry with-out processed foods.
”We try to make it fun with potlucks and recipe exchanges. When I became an acupunctur-ist, I realized how important it is to do cleanses seasonally, not once a year, so I do them in spring and fall,” Stewart said.
The NourishMe cleanse focus-es not just on food but daily prac-tices, as well. Upon awakening, for instance, practitioners spend a couple minutes dry-brushing the skin on their arms toward the body. They swish sesame seed oil or raw extra virgin coco-nut oil around in their mouth for 10 minutes to draw the toxins out. They also dry-brush their body and engage in a Thai Chi regimen that addresses the chakras or energy centers in the body.
Molly Peppo Brown did her first fast nine years ago and found she enjoyed improved health, circulation and digestion. When she pursued her master’s degree in nutrition, she studied with a leading expert in the field of spiritual juice fasting.
Cleansing prescriptions need to be tailored according to peo-ple’s blood sugar levels and other issues, cleansers caution. Even a fast can cause more problems for some people.
“You have to know what you’re doing or you could be more detrimental than helpful,” Peppo Brown said. “But if you do it in conjunction with health protocols for issues you want to address, such as parasites, you can speed the healing.”
Many of those who have tried cleanses do so to address such issues as a lack of energy, mood-iness, foggy brains, headaches
and digestive problems.Ashley Ferrari did a one-day
juice cleanse with Glow to clean her body. Toward the end of the day, she said, it got harder and her energy was flagging.
“But the next day I didn’t feel hungry at all. I felt like I wanted to eat healthy,” she said.
“I really felt energized,” said Colleen Hayes, who also went on a juice fast. “When I went back to eating meat, I felt like I didn’t have so much energy.”
Maricich says her clients have reported arthritis or chronic neck pain disappearing. Cho-lesterol levels have decreased to optimal levels. People sleep bet-ter and lose cravings for sugar, caffeine and alcohol. Some have even seen cysts disappear.
“Our main purpose is to clear the liver so it can do the 500 jobs it needs to do every day, includ-ing helping your intestines break down and digest the food you eat, and relieving stress. It also helps you lose weight and look and feel younger,” said Johnson, who also offers a fall cleanse. “We’ve eliminated processed sug-ar, processed grains, most dairy products and much of the protein that we normally eat to give the liver a rest.”
Ritz plans to do another cleanse this spring. This time she will try the one offered by Tifney Stewart.
“The nice thing about Glow is they make the food for you, so it’s so easy—you just pick it up. I wanted to learn how to do it myself this year,” she said. “I’m looking forward to it. We all get into our bad habits. We eat the wrong foods, drink a little too much wine. Spring is a good time to reset, to make new habits.”
Glow Live Food Café will offer a cleanse April 21-25 and May 19-23 featuring five days of juices, tea supplements and elixers, such as hibis-cus infusion. The first two days people are allowed certain foods. The third day they are restricted to juices before going back to solid foods. Information: 208.725.0314.
Dr. Maria Maricich of Quantum Healing Arts will offer a free lecture titled “Increase Your Genetic Potential” to explain the benefits of cleansing and what types of cleanses are best for what types of individuals. The discussion will be held at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, April 17, at All Things Sacred Yoga Center in the Galleria Building at 4th Street and Leadville Avenue, catty-corner from Atkinsons’ Market in Ketchum. Though free, seating is limited. RSVP to 208.726.6010.
Maricich offers several detox options, including one that includes protein shakes and cleansing and herbs. All involve eating more fresh organic foods, less processed foods and eliminating drugs, alcohol, sugar and caffeine and, in some cases, certain foods like dairy, eggs, soy, grains, gluten, nightshade vegetables, corn and peanuts
Maricich is also offering cleanse consults that look at metabolic assessment and testing for brain and digestive health, allergies, para-sites and spine and nervous system function. Cleansing empowerment group meetings Tuesday evenings April 22 through May 6 will feature recipes and tips, such as stretching and breath work. Information: 208.726.6010.
Nutritionist Jessica Soine and herbalist Tifney Stewart are offering a class April 21-May 18 that will focus on making lifestyle and diet changes emphasizing seasonal and local diets. Classes include tips from yoga and other practitioners and cooking demonstrations. Information: [email protected] or 720-3757.
Tona Leiseth is offering an Ayurvedic Spring Cleanse April 27-May 4. Par-ticipants can choose from a beginner method and an advanced method. Everyone will eliminate wheat, meat, dairy, sugar, caffeine and alcohol. Each participant will receive a cleanse pack that includes dal, rice, ghee, oil, tea and a spice kit to combine with fresh vegetables, along with a book of recipes, daily practice tips and a discount on Ayurvedic body therapies. Clients will meet as a group two times during the week. Information: [email protected] or 720-5837.
NourishMe is offering a spring cleanse from April 21-30 that addresses mind, body and soul. It involves juicing with green algae and seaweed and an Essiac—tea made up of herbs from burdock root, slippery elm bark, sheep sorrel, Indian rhubarb root, watercress, thistle, red clover and kelp. Two days are restricted to such liquids as green drinks, broth and miso soup. Encouraged foods include fermented sauerkraut and a pudding made of split mung bean and rice and ghee.
Information: 928-7604.
Jeffrey Espejo, Lisa Zumwalt, Colleen Hayes, Molly Peppo Brown and Ashley Ferrari say “Cheers” with spring cleanse smoothies and juices, including one made out of carrot, apple and ginger; one made of bananas and strawberries; and a green juice made of cucumbers, celery, kale, parsley, Swiss chard, lemon and other veggies.
Julie Johnson of NourishMe says fermented sauerkraut provides a boost of Vitamin C for those indulging in spring cleanses or those who just want to eat healthy throughout the year.

Record-low interest rates have been commonplace over the past few years,
helping to get the economy back on track and restore the housing market.
But as rates begin to inch back up, the time is right to consider refinancing your home mortgage.
To determine whether you are a good candidate for refinancing, we first need to steer clear of some common myths.
Yes, refinancing can help homeowners reduce their monthly payment, pay off the mortgage sooner, and lower their total mortgage interest expense. But it doesn’t make sense for everyone.
Consider refinancing if, in general, you have enough income to pay off debts and other finan-cial obligations, a credit score that demonstrates your ability to handle debt responsibly, and some equity in your home — meaning it’s worth more than you owe.
Getting a lower interest rate isn’t the only reason to refinance. Other good reasons include:
- Converting from an ad-justable-rate to a fixed-rate mortgage
- Consolidating two mortgages into one fixed-rate payment
- Shortening your mort-
gage loan term- Consolidating credit
card or higher-interest debt
- Buying other property
The next step is looking at the different refinancing product options and working the numbers. For some, this part can be daunting. But it’s easily done with a calculator, a candid conversation with your banker and a comfortable chair.
Consider three main factors when tallying the figures:
- Overall after-tax inter-est savings
- Net cost of closing costs, appraisal, title search, and application fees
- How long you plan to live in the home
Knowing how long you antic-ipate being in the home is key, to make sure you will live there long enough to see the savings you’ve calculated materialize.
Try to avoid some easily over-looked pitfalls.
Remember that refinancing to reduce debt can be a smart move, but doing it in order to borrow more for consumer purchases, like a car or vacation, could set you back significantly.
Read your current mortgage loan documentation to learn whether you’ll be assessed penal-
ties or fees for getting out of that loan early. Make sure you know whether you have a fixed or variable interest rate and what the terms are.
Know that all mortgages are not created equal. If you choose a mortgage based only on its annual percentage rate, you may want to consider other important variables, such as the term of the mortgage and points, or fees that you pay to a lender or broker when you close the deal.
Now you’re armed with the knowledge you need to make the best choice for you. Just remem-ber, do the math.
Sfingi is a vice president and mortgage loan officer with Zions Bank’s Wood River Valley Finan-cial Center in Ketchum.
