Neighbors Have Unique Korean Link

No Election This Fall In Umatilla - Page 3

Friday, June 25, marks the anniversary of the beginning of the Korean War, or Korean Conflict as it is often referred. Decades after the clash that resulted in today’s North and South Korea split, two Umatilla neighbors have found an unlikely tie stretching back to one of the war’s more famous battles. Four years ago, within just months of each other, the Heavener and Melvin families moved in nearly across the street from each other in the Twin Lakes development. As the two new neighbors got to know each other, they discovered they were both Army veterans. Beyond that, they found they both served in Korea, a war that lasted from 1950 to 1953. When they realized they were part of the same famous battle, that’s when things got interesting. Mort Melvin was serving with U.S. forces moving up the east coast of the country, under the command of General Douglas MacArthur - whose HQ Melvin had worked in, reaching a large bridge at the Yalu river. Then, the Chinese army, which had previously just been supporting the North Korean forces, came over the river, pinning the U.S. forces down and basically surrounding them. “They circled us, we were trapped,” Melvin recalled this week from his home office, while reviewing historical documents from the time. Enter Jack Heavener and the Eighth Army, which had been making its way up the west

Up UmatillaWay

ByHolly Newby

We have been praying for the folks working on the Gulf oil spill in recent days. We have a regular prayer list of folks we know; however, in cases of great need there is need for great prayer. There are so many people, animals and natural resources being affected by this mess, we ask others to join in prayer for those affected. Our shame on those who would take this opportunity for political posturing. Real problems require real solutions and real leadership, not finger pointing. The Annual Collins Tire Center Community Dinner is going to be the star of the “Independence” weekend in Umatilla. Bruce Collins and his friends and family are going to attempt to feed the whole town a holiday luncheon. The barbecue team will see the early morning hours to get the meat ready and everyone is encouraged to fix a big covered dish side to bring to share. The meal feeds over 1,000, so help with side dishes and dessert is essential. Call and let the tire center know what you can bring. By the way, the tire center sure looks nice with a new coat of paint. We are glad to see some grant dollars going to good use.

America’s greatness, along with Independence Day will be celebrated at a Star Spangled Birthday Party at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Eustis on Saturday, July 3. The birthday party will kick off with a clown, face painting and pony rides at 9:30 a.m. The celebration will continue with a historical reenactment with “Past Patriots” like George Washington, Betsy Ross and Paul Revere at 11 a.m. There will be lots of local participants including the Astor V.F.W., an American Indian, local Boy Scouts and more. The grand finale will be a picnic luncheon served in air conditioned comfort in the Parish Hall “Patriots Hall” at noon. This celebration of American pride and patriotism is free to the public. Folks are invited to come and bring their friends and neighbors. It’s going to be fun. The Engaging Life Church at 16311

Whistling Pines Road, just north of Mason Jar, will host a July 4th Celebration. Following morning worship service, they will have a traditional Independence Day picnic with food, games, and an inflatable water slide. Everyone is invited, especially those without a church home or who are new to the area. Join in the fun and fellowship from 10 a.m. on. Coffee and doughnuts will start the day and lunch will be served around 1 p.m. For further information, call 551-9100. There will be an Alzheimer Support Group meeting at the adult annex at the FBCU

on Thursday, June 24 at 10 a.m. The Umatilla Public Library is really trying to stretch their budget to make Summer Reading Program fun! They are planning to “Make A Splash” with a pirate, treasure hunt, beach program. The fun sailed into port on Tuesday, June 22. Different grade levels will meet each morning, diving into books, games, theater and children’s fun. They will have several visitors to the program for special events including the Jiggleman on June 24 at 10:30 a.m. The Care Foundation will be the program on July 9, Katie Adam’s children’s theater group on July 22 and a giant water slide finale on July 28. Parents will be signing reading challenges and will compete in a cannon ball battle if the youngsters reach their goal! Call the Umatilla Public Library for further details or check their offerings on line at Umatilla Library.com. A big class reunion is in the planning stages for the Umatilla, Eustis, Mt. Dora and Tavares High School Classes of the 1960s. The event, which is being planned for December 3, 2010 is being referred to as the “Dixie Drive Inn Reunion”. The Dixie Drive Inn was, according to Ellen Murphy of Umatilla, a hang out for local high school kids. Anyone who attended High School in the Triangle schools from 1961 through 1966 is encouraged to contact organizers for further details. Umatilla grads that are being sought are Peggy Watson, Marion Locke, and Charles Fuller to name a few. If you know the whereabouts of these folks or others in these classes, spread the word. Folks are asked to contact Ellen Murphy at (352) 669-4892 or Sherri Jackson at (484) 888-3550. The Umatilla City Pool is open for adult lap swim from 12 to 1 p.m. Monday through Friday.

support and other assistance so the Eighth Army could escape to sea. “We had to climb down into the holdsof any ship around,” Melvin recalls, “there wasonly enough space for us, and they had to keep pushing civilians off the ships. They wanted toescape, too.” Heavener recalls his trip across thecountry, which he took on foot in frigid, winteryconditions. “We went over there to support thatevacuation. I was on a 105 cannon. It was very cold, and we had to cross a mountain range to get to them. It was a long way, a couple of days.” Heavener walked nearly the whole way.Traveling mostly at night, he walked in front of atruck with a flashlight to help light the way. A calvary man with the First Infantry unitof the Eighth Army, Heavener’s cannon prowessno doubt made Melvin’s escape to sea that much more possible. A fact that is not lost on Melvin today. “Jack’s the hero of the deal. He got injured in that battle and was in a body cast for about six months. All these years later, we’ve become very close friends.” While the war in Korea is officially known as a conflict, as Congress never formerly declaredwar during the three year fight, Melvin has hisown ideas about what Korea was all about. “If you were there, it was a war.” Today, in a fitting addendum to the story, the neighbors reside in the only fitting way forthem: Melvin on the east side of the street, and Heavener on the west!

Umatilla Police this week reported that guns and jewelry were stolen from a South Central Avenue residence, a domestic disturbance was reported on East Collins Street, a teenager received a trespass warning at the Umatilla library, an abandoned bicycle was taken into safekeeping, an alarm sounded on Rose Street, an alarm sounded on Central Avenue, batteries were reported stolen at the Anything and Everything store on North Central Avenue, an alarm sounded on West Ocala Street, an alarm sounded on South Central Avenue, a disturbance was reported on Roberts Street, with parties separating and no charges filed, and officers assisted sheriff’s office deputies at a traffic stop on CR 42 west of Lakeview Terrace.

Current Umatilla City Council membersDavid Adams and Ralph Cadwell are set for newterms this week, after the qualifying periods forthis fall’s elections came and went last week without anyone entering to run against them.Both men will be sworn into new terms inJanuary. As the city continues to transition fromtwo year terms, Adams and Cadwell will be thefirst to be seated for four years.

Co-Workers Look To Help Memorial Day Weekend Fire Victim

A benefit fund has been set up at the Nicky D’s restaurant in Umatilla, to support an employee who lost nearly everything she owned in a recent fire. Lorra Sites and her 12 year-old child were living in a home on Orange Lane that burned over Memorial Day weekend, with Sites now living in the Lake Kathyrn area in temporary quarters while she tries to get back onto stable footing.

“We’re trying to get donations,” said Terrie Allen, who works with Sites at Nicky D’s. “Anyone who would like to donate in Lorra’s name, can bring it by the restaurant.” Nicky D’s is located on Umatilla Boulevard, just north of the town traffic signal. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Saturday. For more information, call 669-2400.

In Hot Conditions, Be Aware Of Risks, Warning Signs With summer temperatures sweltering, the Lake County Department of Public Safety, Emergency Management Division, and Lake County Health Department would like to remind residents about the dangers of heat exhaustion and tips for preventing it. Heat exhaustion is a milder form of heat-related illness that can develop after several days of exposure to high temperatures and inadequate or unbalanced replacement of fluids. Those most prone to heat exhaustion are elderly people, people with high blood pressure and people working or exercising in a hot environment. Warning signs of heat exhaustion include heavy sweating, paleness, muscle cramps, tiredness, weakness, dizziness, headache, nausea or vomiting and fainting. The skin may be cool and moist. The victim’s pulse rate will be fast and weak, and breathing will be fast and shallow. If heat exhaustion is untreated, it may progress to heat stroke. Seek medical attention immediately if symptoms are severe or the victim

has heart problems or high blood pressure Otherwise, help the victim to cool off and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or last longer than one hour. If heat exhaustion is suspected, cooling measures that can be effective include drinking cool, nonalcoholic beverages, as directed by your physician, resting in an air-conditioned environment, taking a cool shower, bath or sponge bath, wearing lightweight clothing and wearing sunscreen of 30 spf to prevent sunburn, which damages the skin’s ability to dissipate heat. Tips that can help you stay cool and prevent heat-related illnesses include: • Eat Right - Eat Well-balanced, light and regular meals. • Drink Water - Drink plenty of water regularly. Persons who have epilepsy or heart, kidney or liver disease; are on fluid-restrictive diets; or have a problem with fluid retention should consult a doctor before increasing liquid intake.• Skip Alcohol - Though beer and alcoholic beverages appear to satisfy thirst, these types of drinks can actually cause further body dehydration. • Dress Right - Wear loose-fitting clothes that cover as much skin as possible. Lightweight, light-colored clothing reflects heat and sunlight helping to maintain normal body temperature.• Wear A Hat - Protect face and head by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.• Use Buddy System - Avoid strenuous work during the warmest part of the day. If you must work in extreme heat, use the buddy system and take frequent breaks.

Marion: No To Mud Bog, Yes To Race Track

Marion County commissioners have recently acted on two applications for special use permits. The first request came from Marion Acres, LLC, for a mud bogging pit off Highway 315 in northeast Marion County. The second request came from Larry R. Brown for a horse track located near the Marion-Sumter County line. In the first case, the majority of commissioners rejected a special use permit application for Marion Acres, LLC. The applicant had requested a special use permit to convert a sod farm into a motorized vehicle racetrack and practice facility on 392 acres. The land is located approximately three miles north of the intersection of Highway 40 and Highway 315. The facility would have included mud bogging areas, ATV trails and wash areas. The Marion Acres property is located in a springs protection zone and Ocklawaha flood plain. Wetlands are also located on the property. For those reasons, Marion County Management staff recommended denying the proposal, stating that the use was not compatible with the general character of the area. Staff also said the facility was not consistent with Marion County’s Comprehensive Plan and could adversely affect

Staff it up all the way, darned the cost. Keep it as it is, we don’t have any money. Give it to the county, they can do it better. Put it to a town referendum, then whatever happens is the voters’ fault. There are plenty of opinions flying around Umatilla this week concerning the future of fire protection in town, and whatever your personal feelings are, we recommend you make sure to show up at next Tuesday’s meeting to voice them. With so many widely varying options on the table, what comes out of the big city workshop may be a long way from what you would like to see for the department. Having watched the department from a few blocks away for nearly 20 years, we can vouch for its increased level of coverage, mostly. True, there have been several fires in recent months that have resulted in total losses of structures, and there can be no denying that having a fire across the street from the department that the department doesn’t respond to is not what anyone, including the department itself, is looking for in the service area. Is one person on duty nearly all the time enough? The people of Umatilla rightly expect such an important service to be operating at a high level. Is it now? You could make a case that it isn’t in relation to other departments in the area, but we would argue for at least some perspective as it relates to where the department was and how it has grown. Think back to the early 1990’s, when the station was empty at all hours of the day. Volunteers only, with no set staffing schedule. We remember the likes of Kerry Cunningham from the city, Bill Wunsch, Bill Berube and the like charging to the station when the call came. Back then, it was fire or major crash only, with no emergency medical response at all. Backup from Altoona? Well, that was a volunteer outfit too, so you got what you got.

Since those days, Lake County has begun providing full time staffing at its stations, and Umatilla tries to staff one firefighter at all times, with medical calls to homes and businesses making up the bulk of its responses. Certification requirements have grown, making it harder for the “gentleman” firefighter to stay in the game. In Umatilla’s case, the increased staffing has surely improved overall service, but there can be no denying the town has fallen behind its neighbors in supplied coverage. This recent string of fires illustrates the department’s limitations, but to be fair, if you get a nearly 100-year-old fat pine house good and roaring, it’s all over but the containment. As in, “keep it from burning the neighborhood down.” Where to go from here is the big question, but truthfully, easily answered after some thought. We have a hard time finding a realistic way for Umatilla to fund a fully staffed station at this time. The taxes required to raise the hundreds of thousands of dollars needed to fully staff the station should not be considered at a time when, in many cases, people are just hanging on. Letting Lake County take over the department produces much the same tax burden, if shifted a bit. If the city’s estimates are to be believed, the extra tax burden on commercial property under a county plan would be very high, and add yet another reason to the “why be in Umatilla?” list. We don’t need referendums, we don’t need to be taxed into indenture. We need a solid first response that can get on site quickly to get things rolling. A full time, around the clock paid response is just about a minute up the road, practically at the city limits. Currently, the town spends around $160,000 on its department, enough that, with some extra funds from say, the airport?, and one or so less new vehicle a year could insure at least one person at the department at all times.

HAPPY 84TH BIRTHDAY!Don Barnes, an Altoona resident since the

1950’s who recently moved to Arizona, celebrated his recent 84th birthday by going skydiving. Barnes, who served in WWII as a paratrooper, jumped from 13,000 feet and described the experience as such: “It was

really cold and I didn’t have to worry about being shot at.”

We are in receipt of an email sent to a local resident from an offi cial in Lake County government and we quote it verbatim. “This e-mail is to confi rm our conversation today and report the following facts: Fire station #13 has a completed construction date of July 15. Prior to accepting the building, a walk thru shall be completed with issues being corrected. Once we are clear for occupancy, crews will move in. The fi refi ghters for staffi ng the fi re station are already on the job and will be re-assigned. The fi re apparatus for the fi re station has been purchased and is in Lake County now. Shortly after we occupy the fi re station, we will schedule a grand opening for the public.” We print this as a public service in light of the gossip and rumors that are circulating to the contrary. The Paisley United Methodist Church invites all in the community to join them beginning at 10 a.m. on Sunday, July 4, for a worship service and lunch in the Paisley Park and community center. For your comfort, you may consider bringing your own chairs. Thursday Meals at the church for those in need is ongoing. If you wish to donate to this cause, please mark Thursday Meals on your check memo line or envelope, payable to Paisley United Methodist Church, and mail to P. O. Box 96, Paisley, FL 32767. There will be no Thursday Meal on July 8. Stacey Barnhart and Wanda Andro escorted the younger youth at the Paisley United Methodist Church on a recent fi eld trip to the Jungle Adventure Park and Zoo, located in Christmas. The children heard a presentation on Florida native Indians, watched as the alligators were fed, took a ride on a pontoon boat in the springs water, and got to handle both a tarantula and a python. Stacey announces that the youth

group at the church will be on a summer break starting June 23. Birthday greetings are sent out to Sue Hertzog and David Shockley on June 25, Mark Andro Sr, Wanda Andro, and Myra Guthrie on June 26, Connie Danielski and her twin Cathy Florian, Jose Rea, Nick Wilt, and Tanna Yell on June 27, Gene Angel and Cameron Copeland on June 29, and granddaughter Sara Bryan on June 30. Anniversary greetings to Gus and Terry Ann Bauder on June 25, Lawrence and Mildred Bailey on June 27, Art and Marilyn Winn on June 29, and Don and Julie Wilt on June 30. This week prayers and best wishes are requested for Loretta Ferguson and her husband, Walter, Eileen Ferguson, Nancy Lang, Rev. Nick Godun, John Reynolds, Ann Rowley, Patricia Becker, Larry Hunter, Jay and Stacey Barnhart, Helen Hunter, Helen Haylett, and Misty Goodwin. More great events are upcoming at the Paisley Library’s Summer Reading Program. Thursday, June 24, it’s Create a Craft at the community center at 1 p.m., free for ages 5 and up. A free movie is on tap at 11 a.m. for Saturday, June 26. The fun continues on Tuesday, June 29, as a Demo Team from the Modern Martial Arts Academy in DeLand will show basic self defense moves, open to all ages at 1 p.m. at the community center. The Central Florida Zoo presents a program on Wednesday, June 30, at 1 p.m. at the community center, this one is free for all ages. This takes us back to Thursday again, which is Create a Craft, July 1 at 1 p.m., free for ages 5 and up. Saturday, July 3, it’s another great free movie. Library card holders, don’t forget to stop by the library and check out lots of books (DVD’s don’t count) to be eligible to enter the iPod Nano and gift certifi cate prizes. New family additions – The fi rst new one, Joseph Lyle McKinlay (JoJo), was born on June 11 at 11:02 p.m. – 6 lbs, 9 oz, and 19 1⁄2” long, to Travis McKinlay and Shelby Snowberger.

grandparents are Don and Dianna Habernal. Shania Ann Artibee said hello to the world and her parents, Zachary and Amber Artibee, on June 18 at 6:18 pm -8 lbs, 11.5 oz, and 21” long. Her extended family includes Uncle Gunner Artibee, Grandmother Gayla Haight, and grandparents Chuck and Ann Duminie. Congratulations to John Reynolds on the new addition to his family, Panzer, recently adopted from the “We Care Rottweiler Rescue” folks in DeLeon Springs. The word is that Panzer and April are successfully adjusting to the change in the family. Dick and Anne Rosecrans shared a picture of the cute little baby cardinals residing in the nest of the crape myrtle tree in their yard. We watch as the female turtle diligently digs with her hind fl ippers, sending dirt fl ying all over, then lays her eggs. We sigh the following morning as Skip discovers that a predator has robbed the nest overnight. But that is nature and it is obvious that many of them do make it, evidenced by the abundance of turtles resting on the mud banks in the lake. It’s Finger Food Nite this Saturday, June 26, at the Paisley Association during the break at Bingo. The doors open around 6 p.m. and Bingo starts at 6:45. The Bingo games are open to the community. Martin Paulen is a dedicated single father whose greatest cause in life is the care of his children. Keeping in mind the extras required

later.It’s very easy to put things off until tomorrow, especially things

that aren’t fun to think about. Like funeral prearrangements.But, as most people know, putting things off usually creates

more problems than it solves. Putting off funeral prearrangements can create problems for your family or loved ones at the time when they don’t need to be making important decisions.

You can spare your family these decisions by making them yourself. Now. With the help of Beyers’ professional and concerned staff. Beyers will work to make it easy for you to make arrangements far in advance of need. You’ll gain peace of mind later which seems like a very good plan for all concerned.

Cathy and her twin sister, Connie Danielski, are the twin daughters of Louise McGuire. By the way, Louise was at the meeting and is looking terrific after her recent surgery. She reports that she is a “new” person. Dustin is the grandson of John and Carolyn Stearman. The birthday song was for the twin sisters, Connie and Cathy, on June 27. All the Dads we’ve heard from had a great Father’s Day. Skip received cards and well wishes from all the children, and Tom and

Brandy Wilson took us to Sunday Brunch at the Mainstreet Grill in DeLand. We ended up the day at the annual Kidzdance Recital, held at Lyman High School in Longwood, where we were joined by daughters, Debbie Abbott and Kathy Bryan, to watch granddaughter Shelby Abbott perform her dance routine. As always, Kidzdance bedazzles us with their production – it’s always over the top. It’s summer and a perfect time to try out the Paisley to DeLand bus, which runs every Friday.

TRACKS KIDS PROGRAM...Students making stepping stones for Astor

Library walkway. Picture by PJ Jackson

“People do not care what you know, they want to know that you care.” This is a quote we took directly from Peyton Grinnel, second in command in the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, during the Sheriff’s Town Hall meeting held in Eustis last week. Sheriff Borders and most of his management staff attended the meeting and spent an hour and a half providing information and giving an overview of the kinds of services our local sheriff’s office offers. If you have never attended one of these meetings, you might want to take some time to do so. Town Hall discus-sions are held each month in a different location in Lake County; and, this 765 member agency is available night and day to provide for our public safety both on land and in the waters throughout our local area. Those of us who attended from the Astor area, and there were about a dozen or so, came away with a real sense of the many services available to us. If you are interested in finding out more, the sheriff’s office has a Com-munity Service Unit (352) 343-9500 available to answer questions or direct you to others who can help you, or you can go to their website at www.lcso.org. We all came away with a sense that our Lake County public safety officials do really care about the residents of River Country and

much of what they do is supplemented through fundraising efforts throughout the county. Try out one of those Town Hall Meetings if you can. In past weeks, we have talked about the many activities currently taking place at the As-tor library on Alco Road. EcoConnect is an ongo-ing grassroots project at the library that was de-veloped to inform, educate and reconnect youth and adults with nature and the local environ-ment through hands-on activites. EcoConnect promotes actions and activities that are intended to restore our environment and protect our local wildlife, their habitats, and the overall ecosys-tems. Topics include recycling, carbon footprint, organics, watersheds, endangered species, Flori-da natives and much more. Recently, EcoConnect members planted a beautiful butterfly garden at the Astor library. All of the plants, materials, bird baths and hum-mingbird feeders were donated by Rodney and Sue Harrelson, in memory of their daughter Su-zanne Marie Pearson. Other donations of time, as well as monetary contributions, were provided by “The Friends of the Library,” the Astor library

staff, Planet Art, and The Art of Landscapes. The TRACKS kids program from Taylor Middle School has recently joined with EcoCon-nect, and they have planted all of the flowers in the garden and have also pulled out alot of the weeds that grow so quickly in our Florida envi-ronment. They began making the first stepping stones for the walkway that will soon provide a unique pathway from the parking lot on the east side of the library to the library entrance. Recently the “KEY CLUB” from Umatilla High School also joined EcoConnect, and they will be involved in constructing the new “Perpetual Honor Garden” on the east side of the front en-trance. All of these busy organizations would

They will gratefully accept donations of t-shirts, door prizes and food and beverages, etc...anything you, your business or your organization would like to donate. Admis-sion will be $3, with children under 6 years of age free. Music will be provided by “Simply Lew” and there will be raffles and door prizes.

The Senior Mooseketeers Show at the Astor Moose Lodge was a huge sucess this week-end, with a large crowd of old and new faces in the cast and in the crowd. Members really appeared to enjoy the food provided by Jimmy Yelvington. “Murphys Law” seemed to be in play most of the night with a number of technical dif-ficulties and late arrivals in the audience, but all and all, everything came off well. The Mooseke-teers received lots of nice compliments and they

Summer’s bounty is flowing in from local gardens. A home garden used to be a mainstay of the Florida Cracker lifestyle. Over the genera-tions, we have grown farther and farther from this tradition, which is really a shame. The pro-duce grown locally was fresh, cheap and mostly organic with cow, chicken and horse manure an occasional fertilizer. The row of okra, tomato plants and squash row of yesterday, has been replace by produce from Chile and Guatemala. How we wish that every child had a chance to learn to grow their own food in the back yard like kids used to. Children who once learned to plant, weed and cultivate at their parents and grandparents elbow, now miss that lesson. Luckily a few of our neighbors still have small gardens and we have been blessed with some homegrown vegetable this summer. They really taste different and all we can say is thanks for keeping that homegrown tradition going.

Eggplant with Mozzarella1 large egg plant16 oz. bar mozzarella cheeseextra virgin olive oilsalt and pepper to tastebalsamic vinegar

Heat 3 Tbs. olive oil in a large skillet. Slice the egg plant lengthwise. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. ( Just a little) Cut one slice of mozzarella cheese for each slice of egg plant. Put three slic-es of eggplant at a time in the skillet. Brown on both sides, about 5 minutes on medium high. Place one strip of mozzarella on a browned side of eggplant. Wrap like an egg roll or burrito, fold up sides. Cook for two more minutes. Serve hot with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Serve one or two each egg plant roll ups per person. Repeat and keep cooking until all eggplant and cheese are used.

Ka-raoke by Stephanie worked through all of the technical problems and did a super job helping the performers with their skits. On Saturday, June 26, the Women of the Moose (WOTM) Chapter #2219 will be hosting an Appreciation Breakfast for all Loyal Order of the Moose (LOOM) members.

The Friday Fish Fry will not be served on July 2 and the next WOTM meeting is Saturday, July 3, at 10:00 a.m. at the lodge. In next week’s column, we hope to bring you information on all of the local 4th of July activitities in the Astor area and give you an update on our local road construction projects. Until then, have a safe and enjoyable summer in River Country.

July 1 Brings Saltwater License Changes

The shoreline fishing license for Florida residents to catch saltwater fish from shore or a structure affixed to shore cost $9 last year, but this year, it’s free beginning July 1. The Florida Legislature repealed the shoreline license fee during the past session. However, legislators retained the license requirement to prevent a more-costly federal registration fee from taking effect in Florida. Resident anglers who obtain the shoreline license over the phone or Internet still will have to pay a convenience fee to the vendor. The convenience fee is $2.31 for Internet sales at www.fl.wildlifelicense.com or $3.33 for phone sales at 888-FISH FLORIDA (888-347-4356). Only Florida residents qualify for a no-cost shoreline license, and the license does not cover fishing from a boat or from land or a structure accessible only by boat. There are some exemptions for license requirements. More information is available at MyFWC.com/License.

Health Department To Offer Free Testing During

“National HIV Testing Day”

The Lake Country Health Department will participate in “National HIV Testing Day,” a nationwide campaign sponsored by the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA). National HIV Testing Day is designed to make people more aware of the potential risk for HIV infection and to learn their HIV status. The goal is for people to “Take the Test” to determine their status and to “Take Control” by returning for their test results.

In observance of National HIV Testing Day, the Lake County Health Department will be offering free HIV Testing at Life Changing Ministries, Seventh Day Adventist Church, 18440 US Hwy 441, Mount Dora.

The event will be held on Friday, June 25, from noon - 5 p.m. Residents are encouraged to come by and “Take the Test.” If someone receives a positive test result for HIV, they are linked directly into medical care, social support systems and other services that can help them live long, productive lives. For more information on HIV testing and treatment, residents may call the Disease Control Department at (352) 357-1668.

East Lake Crash Claims Eustis Teen

A Eustis teenager died from injuries suffered in a single vehicle crash last Wednesday. Kendrick Rowe II, 18, died when he was ejected from the vehicle he was driving on CR 46A after it crashed into a tree. Florida Highway Patrol reports state Rowe was northbound on CR 46A in East Lake County at approximately 1:24 p.m. near the S. Red Trail Boulevard intersection when his vehicle left the road onto the east shoulder. After rotating counter clockwise, the vehicle struck a tree, ejecting Rowe through the passenger side window. The vehicle came to final rest on top of Rowe.

The last award given out at the Altoona Trail Riders recent year end banquet was the Trail Horse of the Year award. This award is given to a horse that epitomizes what we con-sider to be the perfect trail horse. One that will go anywhere, do anything asked of it, camp any-where and take very good care of his rider. This is the fourth year of presenting this award and this year it went to Echo, the 25-year-old black Arabian owned by Marcia Michel. Echo rides and drives, has camped all over the southeast, gives rides to kids and is generally the perfect horse. Marcia got Echo when he was three years old and their partnership is long and very reward-ing. Just recently, Marcia retired from her job at the Citrus County Courthouse. Unbeknownst to her, husband Andy took Echo and his cart to downtown Inverness and picked Marcia up from her last day of work in horse and buggy. He drove Echo down the main street and parked in front of the building waiting for Marcia to get off work. What a sendoff into retirement! Echo is certainly deserving of this award. The construction of a tunnel under CR475 and 475A in Ocala is well underway. I drove out there this week to check on the prog-ress. It is a two part project - raising the road up combined with a lot of digging out of dirt to cre-ate a valley. First they had to re-route traffic and this was done by building a temporary road that traverses part of the Horse Park property. The existing road has been dug up and is being built up. Trail riders have been advised to stay away from these two construction areas and not try to cross the roads. This part of the Greenway trails is a busy one for horse traffic, which is part of the rationale for building the tunnels. The in-crease in horse traffic as well as auto traffic is a disaster waiting to happen. I do not know when the work will all be done, but I am sure there will be a lot of publicity regarding the opening of the tunnels. The long range plans also call for tun-nels at the CR484 and SR200 horse crossings as well. When all the work is completed riders will be able to safely cross under the roads from the 110th Street Trail head all the way to the Pruitt Trail head. If you live in Florida and spend any time outdoors, you will eventually encounter a snake of some sort. I want to warn everyone to espe-cially stay away from coral snakes. Not because

they are aggressive, because they are not and not because the bite of a coral snake is painful, be-cause it is not. The problem is that the country is running out of coral snake bite venom. These snakes are found in Florida and other parts of the southeast and nationwide there are about 100 coral snake bites a year. From my experienc-es in healthcare, the snakebites I have seen have all occurred due to someone picking up a coral snake and subsequently being bitten in the soft tissue of the hand. Drug companies currently are not producing antivenin because it is not profit-able. It is very expensive to make and the insuf-ficient demand does not justify the research and production. So at the end of 2010 there will be no more antivenin. Mexico has an antivenin drug for coral snake bites, however it is not approved by the FDA and would cost millions of dollars to do such. (Our wonderful government in action again.) The coral snake bite is neurotoxic and within a few hours of being bitten the victim will have tingling in the arms and legs, slurry speech and eventually neuromuscular block to the lungs. When the antivenin is no more, the course of treatment will be to put the victim on a ventilator for breathing until such time that the effects of the toxin wear off. It will take several weeks and the hospital bill for the victim will be enormous. While I have not seen any coral snakes around my property, I have seen them out in the forest in the leafy wet areas around the Boys’ Ranch ponds. And I am sure everyone knows how to tell a coral snake from a scarlet king snake; the yellow and red bands touch each other. My best advice, keep away from the coral snakes; go the other way, and for goodness sakes, do not try to be macho and pick one up. The Tack Shack of Ocala is having one of their Horsey Yard Sales this Saturday, June 26.

Along with all the used tack spots will be huge sales going on in the two stores. Vendors can have a spot for $10 and set-up begins at 6:30. The FHP Mounted Patrol will have a demonstra-tion on horse safety and obstacle training. Hour-ly door prizes will be given away. A new service at the Tack Shack is their on-site embroidery store for personalizing blankets, pads, hats and jackets. They also offer blanket washing and re-pair, tack repair and custom leatherwork. Go early and beat the heat of the day.

OIL, OIL, EVERYWHERE Oil, oil, everywhere, and not a drop to drink! Please allow me to paraphrase this line from “The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner.” After all, the ancient mariner never had to contend with such oil slicks as the one presently threat-ening the Gulf of Mexico, all the shore areas sur-rounding it and even the Atlantic shores via the Gulf Stream. My first knowledge of crude oil when I was growing up was when my brother Lee, who some of you knew was sailing on tankers during World War Two. Before he died and during the Iraq War, he spoke of frequently sailing up the Persian Gulf, into the Euphrates River, docking and loading crude oil at Baghdad, said to pos-sibly be the cradle of civilization, perhaps the lo-cation of the Garden of Eden through which the Tigris and Euphrates River flowed then and still flow. When I was pastoring the Santa Rosa Baptist Church about halfway between Panama City and Destin, my wife became ill after the birth of our youngest son at Graceville. I had to withdraw from Bible School for a while. We moved our mobile home down beside the church while she recovered. It was and still is a resort area for folks from the Florida Panhandle and Alabama from spring to fall where they go for the white sand beaches for swimming and saltwater fishing. Sometimes I’d get frustrated with atten-

dance and lack of response and call it the last resort. That was in 1965. The church, only about a quarter-mile from the beach was a perfect place for her recov-ery and we frequently took long walks along the beach. It was not unusual to be looking out over the Gulf and see a tall plume of water spout up and fall back into the Gulf. It was beyond the ho-rizon and I couldn’t see what was causing such a strange phenomenon. I soon learned that its cause was an oil company prospecting for oil and natural gas. They set off dynamite charges on the gulf floor and recorded the blast with a seismo-graph. The readings told them whether or not there was a likelihood of subterranean oil and gas reserves with an idea of how much. Thus, exploring for oil near the shore in the Gulf is not a recent activity as many seem to think. As I was walking, it was not unusual to find dynamite caps that had washed up on the beach a real hazard for beach goers, especially young children who might not realize their explo-sive danger. I called the sheriff who failed to see a potential problem I threw them into thick clus-ters of dune palmettos, not likely to be found. My oldest brother-in-law lost a thumb and two fin-gers while playing with a dynamite cap as a child in Georgia. He found it where land-clearers were dynamiting stumps and took it home. He held it behind a door and lit it, planning to scare his family. He said it felt real odd seeing his fingers plaster up on the ceiling. Looking back about twenty years, a niece and her husband owned a cottage on a canal near John’s Pass. My oldest sister took Pat and I with her to spend a few days there. I fished from their dock but all I caught were several saltwater catfish, not safe to eat but fun to catch. One big fish swam off with the stub of a pole while I was baiting another hook with chicken gizzards.

We went swimming on the beach and dis-covered big blobs of crude oil that had washed up from no telling which oil rig or tanker that nobody admitted. Our feet were black from the washed-up crude oil blobs and liked to have never come clean. We had to do the best cleaning job we could before going into the house to keep from making a mess inside. It was a big enough spill that it attracted TV Channel 13 News re-porters, one of whom interviewed my sister and broadcast it on the evening news. This means that such things have al-ready happened from time-to-time years before the sinking of the British Petroleum (BP) oil rig and likely are still happening. Floridians have every right to be skeptical about more off-shore drilling even though it seems a pity that the Chi-nese are drilling not too far south in cooperation with their Communist Cuban “cousins.” How much cooperation will they give in cleaning up if they have a spill? They’re already poisoning our children with leaded Barbie Dolls and cheap costume jewelry. (If you buy your little girl a Bar-bie Doll, make sure to determine it it’s leaded or unleaded.) A newspaper article last week said BP has spent mucho big dollars lobbying Congress in the past. Does this give the word “lobby” a new meaning? “Lobby”: (verb) to influence, sometimes unduly. (“Lobby”: to buy Congress?) An interesting and disturbing double-take, not unlike congressional double-speak that we hear so much of these days. To drill or not to drill - that is the ques-tion. It’s said that the reserves that are thought to be there would at best provide a small per-centage of our national needs for only about six to nine months. It is also reported that after months of drilling before actually pumping that amount, it wouldn’t necessarily benefit the Un-tied States. It would go to the highest bidder on the world oil market thus benefiting the big oil companies rather than the nation or the price we pay for gasoline. I don’t know. It boggles my mind. I know we don’t need another massive oil spill like we now have. I’ll reluctantly pay the pump price but drive less and slower for better miles per gallon. May wise heads prevail!

A S P U R E A S I T G E T S . . .TAKING SHAPE

The future home the Nicky D’s Italian Restaurant continues to undergo a

substantial facelift this week. The building, located at the Umatilla traffic light on SR 19, was previously a medical service facility, and a bank. After renovations are complete both outside and in, the restaurant will move over from its current Umatilla Boulevard location.

City ... cont’d a covered pavilion ($38,157) for the public works department, and a letter folder and inserter ($6,500) for the finance department. Under the lease program that was approved last week, the city is able to get all of the items this year, make the three payments inthe out years, and then receive title ownershipafter the last payment is made.

Marion ... cont’d the public interest. In the second case, the applicant requested the special use permit and zoning reclassificationto construct and operate a quarter horse racing track and gambling card room. The 66 acre property is located west of South U.S. Highway301 on the south side of Southeast 177th Place. The majority of commissioners voted toapprove the rezoning request from A-1 (GeneralAgriculture) to A-2 (Improved Agriculture). Witha second vote, the majority of commissioners also approved the special use permit. However,commissioners required additional conditions:all facilities must be built simultaneously, andall races will occur at the new facility, not OcalaBreeder Sales.
