Daffodil Show
Called Fabulous!
By Annette Williams ~ the journal
The Julian Daffodil Show was held last month, and organizer Sally Snipes says, It was fabulous!
The show was started by Snipes and Jay Pengra, who operate it more as a fun event, rather than a serious show.
We had really good public attendance, said Snipes. The community has kind of fallen in love with the flower. It makes people smile, and we all need more of that.
Snipes noted that this years climate had a negative effect on submissions, with about half as many as last year.
We were a little panicked about the drought, but people went and found them, she said. Its all the community. Without the community, we wouldnt

have had them.American Daffodil Society
(ADS) President Harold Koopowitz, who served as the events main judge, estimated that there were 962 stems among the 727 entries, according to his report on www.daffnet.org.
While the Julian Daffodil Show is not an ADS-accredited show, Koopowitz says it has some aspects that would be the envy of many of the accredited shows.
Judging duties went to ADS members, who joined local judges and those from other flower organizations.
Members of the public submit any and all daffodils named and unnamed. If entries are placed in the wrong cat-egory, judges will move them to the proper divisions during the judging process.
Koopowitz noted that the show is generous in awarding

70 Years Of HappinessBy Johnny McDonald ~ the journal
on a December afternoon in 1944, an 18-year-old sailor wandered into a Long Beach candy store and was dazzled by the pleasant smile of a young woman who worked there.
It was love at first sight.
Three months later, on March 24, 1945, Edward and Maxine Seffens were married before he left for the war zone in okinawa.
Sixty different family members celebrated the couples 70th wedding
anniversary, said daughter Vicki Summers.
The celebration was held at the couples ranch home at the extreme west end of Warner Springs. They have 12 grand-children, 17 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.
When we got married, we
didnt know anything about anything in those days, Ed Seffens said. We didnt have any money, didnt have any-thing, and three weeks later my

Ray Rapue Claims Prize in Speech Challenge
By Ann Reilly Cole ~ the journal
Each year, the Lions Club sets a challenge to high school students around the nation to prepare and present a speech on a topic that students will face when they graduate.
This years topic Water Conservation How can we reduce, recycle and reclaim? is a timely subject and one well worth bearing in mind, considering that California is in an extended severe drought.
Three students from Julian Union High School rose to the challenge, with senior Ray Rapue taking the top position and the $100 cash prize by just a few points. The other two students, Jessica Nichols and Lauren Vandewalle, were each rewarded with a $25 participation fee and the
knowledge and experience they gained from the process.
The mission of the Lions Club is to provide a competitive public speaking opportunity for students on a subject of vital interest to the contestants and to the American people as a whole, to stimulate self-expression and independent thinking, to present to the public problems that face our nation, and to consider ways to address present and future world problems.
The student speakers are required to speak for a minimum of five minutes and no longer than 10 minutes. Three professionals, who have at least a bachelors degree in public speaking arts and have been professionally taught how to grade public speaking, judge the presentations.
Rapue came to the contest with a prepared speech that was a bit shy of the five-minute minimum. Thinking on his feet, he slowed his delivery and then added some more points to his talk in order to complete the speech within the time rules. For Rapue, who enjoys public speaking, the contest was a good way to practice for speeches he must give as part of his work in Future Farmers of America.
The second round of the
contest was held in San Marcos, where Rapue competed against two other Lions Club winners on the same topic for a $125 cash prize and a chance to progress to the next level. In all, there are six contest levels, with increasing scholarship awards to the winners at each level. The distinguished winner of the final contest in September will earn more than $20,000 in scholarships.
The contest is designed to keep kids interest high and inspire them to want to win, said Joe Connolly, president of the local Lions Club.
Rapue added a couple of ideas to his original speech for his effort at San Marcos, where he took second place and was awarded a certificate for his participation.
My speech was different than the others, Rapue said. It was a persuasive argument, instead of just factual.
Positive feedback from the judges, who compared him to a preacher, confirmed Rapues gift for public speaking. They told him that his voice fluctuations and rhythm made him stand out.
I just think its a fun thing to do, he said.
The topic for next years contest will be announced in November. n

Defensible Space Inspections BeginCal Fire and San Diego County inspectors have begun conducting de-fensible space inspections in Julian and the backcountry, and throughout the countys State Responsibility Area (SRA).
San Diego County ordinance 10147 requires homeowners living in the unincorporated areas of the county to maintain 100 feet of defensible space around structures. Inspectors will be educating residents and evaluating properties to make sure they are in compliance
with state law.Creating and maintaining
defensible space is critical for the protection of homes, said Cal Fire Battalion Chief Steve Foster. It has never been more critical to strengthen our fire prevention efforts in light of the elevated fire conditions we have been experiencing in San Diego County. We have increased our inspection staff-ing, and now we need the public to make sure they, too, are prepared for the increased fire risk due to drought.
Here are some practices that can help prevent the loss of a home due to wildfire:
Maintain 100 feet of defen-sible space around structures
Clear pine needles and leaves from roofs, eaves and rain gutters
Trim branches six feet from the ground
Use trimming, mowing and power equipment before 10 a.m.
Landscape with fire-resistant Dos de Mayo Dinner and DanceA big fiesta to observe
Dos de Mayo and support the Julian Fourth of July Parade is heading for Town Hall early in May.
Cinco de Mayo is just about the most colorful and festive event of this season, says Karan osborn, fundrais-ing chair for the parade com-mittee, who is organizing the event. But we are calling it Dos de Mayo, because the party is on May 2, the Saturday before the actual Cinco de Mayo.
Were going to have a great time, with dinner and dancing, both silent and live auctions for fabulous items, drawings, and a photo booth, she says.
Proceeds go to support this years Fourth of July Parade. Dinner is being catered by Heather and Nico Roulston, the new owners of Candied
Apple Pastry Company. They will be serving tacos with beans and rice, dessert and soft drinks. Adult beverages are available at a no-host bar.
Entertainment will feature music by DJ Dave Klump for dancing, plus line dancing lessons with Kat Dupre. Youll have a chance to bid on the auctions and purchase tickets
for opportunity drawings and cash drawings. The party runs from 5 to 10 p.m. This is a
family event and kids are welcome.Tickets are $15 per person, available at the
Julian Chamber of Commerce office in Julian Town Hall, 2129 Main St.; WetDuck Design, 3411 Highway 79; Candied Apple Pastry Company, 2128 Fourth St.; and from members of the parade committee.

Few art forms employ the disciplines of historical research, scientific processes and artistic skills that are required to make an authentic ceramic doll.
For Velta Rymer, who came to Julian 30 years ago, each doll she makes has a personality born of her commitment to that research, her attention to detail and the joy that comes from immersion in the creative process.
Born and raised on a farm in
Springfield, Mo., Rymer didnt have time for playing with dolls as a girl because of her daily chores. Retired now, she more than makes up for that lost time, as she loses track of time spending countless hours in the doll workshop beneath her Kentwood home.
Learning from trial and error, teachers she has met along the way, and books and articles collected over decades, Rymer has achieved a level of artistry and technical skill that result in dolls that are remarkably beautiful and reflect the passion she has for her craft.
She fires her own ceramic parts using antique French and German molds, and sews historically accurate costumes embellished with lace she makes herself. She makes dolls wigs, sometimes from human hair, in styles appropriate to the fashion of the period in which her doll would have originated. It can take as many as seven or eight months to complete a single doll.
I couldnt afford to buy these things, so I learned how to make whatever I needed, she says.
Each doll begins with a theme. once that is decided, Rymer studies the time frame to determine which fashions the doll will wear, and gathers the things she will need to bring the doll to life. She makes the clothes, shoes, hair and eyes to match the personality she envisions for each doll, whether a fine lady who attends tea parties or an impish boy who might be a prankster.
Its like a giant puzzle. I imagine what I want it to be, and it becomes a whole person with all the accessories.
She has a personal relationship with each of her dolls, but one in particular holds special meaning for her. Made as a portrait of her late mother, this doll was made using her mothers hair, and the dolls clothes were fashioned from a favorite dress that once belonged to her mother.

Rymers workshop is organized in workstations, with the tools and supplies required to complete each step in the process carefully arranged and stored in cabinetry designed and
built by Jimmy, her husband of 64 years. Jimmy also makes the doll furniture used in her displays.
From time to time, people bring their critically ill dolls to her to be repaired. Her dolls have also served as healers, brought on missions of mercy to entertain ill children in hospitals, bringing a bit of joy to them in a difficult time.
For Rymer, this labor of love provides the perfect expressive outlet for her vivacious personality, which inevitably infects not only her dolls, but also those who have the pleasure of encountering them. n

THE TERRiToRy. . . Julian and BeyondBy Johnny McDonald ~ the journal
Getting Stuck On Candy The other day, Adele Delgado celebrated her 10th anniversary sweetening the life for many at her Julian Candy Basket shop, perched in the second level of the Cole Building.
Delgado admits to approach-ing retirement age, but its reasonable she might wish to fudge a few more years until, maybe, her daughter is ready to take over.
one reason is her fondness for making fudge, which she says is kinda fun. Good reason, too, why the store has received a five-star customer rating.
online, a customer praised that very fudge.
Its the perfect texture, has consistency, taste, everything, said the review. And theres a variety of flavors, too!
of course, thats only part of a diverse selection of candies and sodas that make the place so popular.
Delgado said she has expand-ed the line of merchandise and strives to keep the shop up-to-date and interesting.
People are still sweet on candy, she said. There are some from out of town who make plans to come several times a year. We are always open to suggestions from our visitors.
She mentioned one custom-er who gave her a recipe with ingredients for a different kind of soda.
We made it, and it was a great success, she remembered. When that customer returned, we were sold out.
of course, he could still order something else. There are 120 soda varieties.
As for the candy, theres an entire corner dedicated to chocolate, which includes five different types of coffee candy.
We go to a special place that does most of our choco-lates, she said.
Being upstairs means posting signs below to direct new customers.
If we could find a bigger spot, we might move. But we dont intend to expand the business beyond Julian.
The shop is open every day but Christmas.
Mosaic With An IdentityA multicolored, five-foot-tall
mosaic by talented local artist Leena Hannonen now adorns a wall at The Mountain Gypsy store.
Its an enlarged replica of the stores logo in gemstones, brightened with many colors.
I was impressed by a beauti-ful mosaic of a dolphin, which she had done, and I asked her if she would do this (logo) for me, said shop owner Elizabeth Snider-Rodriguez.
It took several weeks for her to complete it. Its an expressive replica of our logo.
Snider-Rodriguez has had the shop for a little over a year, having purchased it from Elke Mussen, who owned it for more than 20 years.
Snider-Rodriguez said she got the idea of buying it when she saw a story in the Julian Journal about several businesses that were for sale.
After seeing the place, she immediately purchased it.
The new owner, formerly from West Covina, has lived in Julian for eight years.
I thought it would be fun to have a store in a little mountain town, she said. As a psychologist, I taught classes at Southwestern and Palomar colleges, but I became tired of driving up to 120 miles a day.
The Mountain Gypsy has clothing and accessories sourced from around the world, carrying a selection of womens clothing. The store also has necklaces, bracelets and a variety of rings. n

Wildflower Show Blooms in JulianA Julian tradition since the Roaring
Twenties, the annual Wildflower Show has been sponsored by Julian Womans Club for many of those years.
The event showcases 100 different varieties of wildflowers collected on private property from the desert floor to the Julian mountain-tops. Weather patterns and wildfires determine which species will be on display in a given year.
Information will be provided about attracting monarch butterflies by planting milkweed, cultivating native species, and
removing non-native species in an effort to restore natures balance and beauty.
Wildflower guides, gardening books and native plant seeds will be available, as well as an opportunity to win a locally handmade quilt.
The show runs from May 6 to 9, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., in the lower level of Julian Town Hall, 2129 Main St. Admission is free, and donations are accepted.

ship sailed to okinawa.For Ed and Maxine, it has
been a story of adjustments, distant travel and military life.
We talked for hours about getting married and what might be ahead, Ed remembered. others tried to talk us out of
it, saying I might be killed.It was hard having to move
place to place and living in hotels, like West Point, where the home was not ready yet, Summers said. She was a trouper about it. But the adven-tures were there, and they were
great. Her heart was always for the women of other service-men who had to travel.
Eds military career covered the Navy, flight training with the Marines, and eventually retiring as a sergeant first class after 20 years in the Army.
I enlisted in the Navy at 17 and became a quartermaster aboard an old destroyer, the USS Kane, converted into a high-speed transport, he said.
He couldnt find work, so he and Maxine decided he should enlist in the Army. Maxine and their four children, which included twins, traveled to Japan, Alaska, Washington, D.C., and West Point, N.Y.
Good thing about the Army she could go with me. We were in Alaska five years, where our twins were born, and a year in Japan.
As for Maxine, it was a life of adjustment, particularly when he was away during the Korean and Vietnam wars. She and the
kids moved in with her mother in North Long Beach.
Every time he was gone, it was very hard, she said. We just stuck it out, thats all.
He retired from the Army after 20 years and took a job with the U.S. Department of Justice.
They purchased a five-bed-room house in Fountain Valley, a vast contrast to the quarters the family had at Army bases.
When the daughters mar-ried and moved away, Maxine said, Why do we need this house with five bedrooms? Lets get a farm home. So we quickly sold the house and found this one in Warner Springs.
Seffens said hed never been on a farm before, and neither of them knew anything about farming, so they sought help from their neighbors. First thing they wanted to get was a Jersey milk cow. over the course of 40 years, they acquired the cow, ducks, geese, turkeys, goats and horses, and raised 60 pigs.
Maxine said their marriage has been a good one, with some ups and downs. But nothing too serious. I love farm life and being by our-selves. But it is starting to get crowded.
Right now, Im 89, and I look at it this way: Maxine is not as mobile as me, said Ed. Its my turn to take care of her. Thats just fine with me.
I dont keep her out of my sight very long. She goes with me everywhere I go. n

When you need major medical help, you consult the appropriate medical expert. When you need legal advice, you
consult an attorney. When your car wont start, you call
your mechanic. Getting the right person for the job
is generally a good idea. Whom do you talk to when you
realize your kitchen is unhealthy? The symptoms have been there for
years. If the lighting is terrible, the sink is worn out, the grout is crumbling, the faucet leaks, the cabinets are coming apart, and the finish is chipping off, it may be time to talk to an expert. Since you probably have never faced this problem before, whom can you turn to?
Kitchen Barn is the right answer, and we are close by in downtown Ramona.
Take a moment to stop by our Kitchen Showroom and Design Center. We have lots of informative product
displays, including a fully functional chefs kitchen. We have many years of experience helping people fix their worn out kitchens, and many success stories and local references. We offer a wide variety of products and services that we can customize to suit your needs.
We are a family-owned business and take great pleasure in helping people recapture the fun of owning a modern, well-designed and efficient kitchen. Most importantly, our goal is to make it a pleasant experience along the way.
If you prefer, we can come to you. We offer a FREE, no-obligation kitchen review and consultation. We will lay out the options available to you. Just call to arrange an appointment.
It should be comforting to know that there is a local resource you can turn to when your kitchen needs an overhaul.
