It’s that time of year again when we start thinking about gift giving, and I person-ally love to give home-made gifts. (But not neces-

sarily crafted by myself, as I don’t have the talent!) For years, my hubby has tried to promote a Christmas gift theme: “If you don’t make it or bake it, I cannot take it.” The idea, of course, is to make Christmas a time to celebrate the true meaning of the season. Exchanging meaningful handmade gifts, instead of buying gifts that people don’t need or want, seems like a good thing to do! Lucky for me, several years ago, I met Jenny Hanna, who is not only a nature photographer and artist, but also happens to be a driven

conservationist. She thrives on recycling and repurposing everyday objects so that they don’t end up in the landfill. You would be amazed at the level of talent she demon-strates creating exciting new uses for items you might otherwise throw away. Take a sack of deer corn, for example. These are typically cut open and thrown away once the corn is used. But for Jenny, the corn sack is just the begin-ning, and she turns other-wise useless trash into utterly delightful tote bags. The material is sturdy, and the tote bag is perfect for many uses. Those of you who have been following me will know that I have a passion for anything about deer. I

love using antlers on my fall din-ner table, and of course incorporat-ing antlers into my Christmas decor. When I harvest a buck, I typ-ically take the antlers to Jenny’s place, and her hubby is pleased to cut them for me. This year, I am designing a fall wreath for my door, and antlers will be in the design. Jenny is not a hunter, but appre-ciates why people hunt and lends a creative hand in repurposing the antlers. Her specialty is designing useful items made from antler, such as cabinet pulls, buttons, key chains, jewelry, and much more. I must say that her antler-handled oyster knives are top choices for many gift givers—they’re real crowd pleasers! But this is only the beginning of the fantastic original handcrafted items that Jenny makes. She cro-chets pocketbooks, baby sacks, and

Maggie’s Favorite Things: Gift Giving and Decorating for the Holidays

Jenny Hanna

beanies, and is especially proud of the mats she makes out of grocery store plastic bags for the “dis-placed” population. I wanted to know how all this creative energy got started, and Jenny was happy to fill me in. “I have always been an outdoors girl and have fond memories of fishing with my grandfather, and roaming the woods looking for animals and climbing trees with my brother. We even made our own hut using the thatching method, which was designed much like a lattice pie crust. I inherited my artistic side from my mother, who could make anything out of anything, and she did just that.” Repurposing was a way of life in Jenny’s family, and she learned so much about this as a child spending time with her grandparents.

Jenny attributes her drive and determination to time spent with her grandfather, Jim McCall. She remembers him as a man who started with nothing and became a self-made millionaire, even though he didn’t have a high school diplo-ma. His hard work and willingness to go the extra mile for his family was a great message, and one that still inspires Jenny to this day. A passionate conservationist, Jenny says her biggest pet peeve is people who leave trash on the beach, especially cigarette butts. “Please, please pick up your ciga-rette butts. I find them on the beach littered like shells. As a matter of fact, they were number one of the list of trash collected on International Coastal Cleanup Day in 2017!” Jenny is living her dream of turning her art into a thriving business after years of working in the corpo-rate finance industry. When she isn’t stalking the per-fect photo of a wading bird in the marsh, you can typically find her in her shop, making something beautiful. She is most proud of her work when she gets excellent feedback from her customers.

So if you are looking for an unusual handmade gift, you can contact her at [email protected] or [email protected]. If you have antlers from a harvested deer, feel free to contact Jenny, and she will help you with a custom piece! Maggie is a Realtor, a hunting and fishing blogger, and Prois Hunt Staffer.

Giving Thanks By Jane Ochsenbein

Gator Bait Adventure Tours

As Thanksgiving approaches, we look for-ward to family time, friends, meals together, sports and time outdoors together. It’s a time we give thanks for the good things in our lives and the world around us. What does being thankful mean to you? Is it just a platitude said quickly in recognition? I see being thankful as an action, not a word. The problem with action is, it takes time, but it’s also what gives the word meaning. Thankful and grateful go hand in hand. Have you ever heard someone say thanks, and know they didn’t really care? Saying and doing are two very different things. I have been making more of an effort to show friends and strangers how much I appreciate their effort and care for things that mean so much, not just saying thank you, but being grateful. Many of us have busy schedules, but it’s

important to set time aside to give back. We don’t exist in the world alone, we share every-thing from the air we breathe & water we drink, to the spaces we live. We share experiences, smiles and tears. Being thankful and grateful in action makes our communities a better place. Even something as simple as a phone call or note shows gratitude. Several months ago, I was contacted by a woman who loved the pics from one of my articles. We chatted by phone, it was so sweet of her to reach out just to let me know I brightened her day, I took her address and sent her a few favorite bird photos. A week later, I got a thank you card with a kind note. To me, that is not just being thankful, but showing it and giving it meaning. A friend I made through cleanups has given me beautiful handmade gifts in thanks for the time and effort we put in to

keep our community clean, I wear those hand-warmers all winter. I am so thankful for the wonderful friends I have and want them to know. When I lost my mother earlier this year, it was my husband and friends who helped me through dark days and made me smile through tears. We all face challenges in life, and all have sunny days. Use those sunny days to help oth-ers overcome their challenges. We all need help in those challenging hard days life throws at you. It is those times you can show how thank-ful you are for their support and make everyone smile. One of the biggest things I am thankful for and would like to recognize is our awesome cleanup friends and the many other volunteers out there. As an outdoor business owner, my passion is keeping our beautiful wild places

P a g e 5N o v e m b e r 2 0 1 9 Wa c c a m a w O u t d o o r sclean and litter free. We host frequent cleanups annually, donating time, equipment and supplies, coordinating volun-teers and planning events. Our business has grown a wonderful team of dedicated volunteers that spend many weekends in swamps and trails caring for our wild places. We couldn’t do a tenth of what this awesome team pulls off! On National Public Lands Day, September 28th, 23 volunteers cleaned up 3500 pounds of old flood debris and trash from Sandy Island. This didn’t happen because of any 1 person; it was a group effort getting it all coordinat-ed. Over the years, volunteers have helped clean up tons of litter and provided hundreds of volunteer hours in the Waccamaw region. Please join me in thanking these awesome cleanup volun-teers, too many to name!

Consider showing it by spending a couple hours cleaning up in your area, everything flows down river when we get storms. Together we can all show how thankful we are to the many volunteers that work hard to care for our treasured rivers and wild spaces. They provide us with clean water and places to enjoy time outdoors. They save tax funds on cleanup labor and show pride in our community. Volunteers are the life blood of a community. People who care

and take time out of their lives in service to oth-ers. There are so many opportunities to give thanks and show you are grateful. Volunteers work in schools, hospitals, parks and a whole variety of locations, so next time you see a vol-unteer, thank them and let them know you are grateful for what they give up in service to our communities.

Cherry Grove Pier Fishing Report

I wrote about the lack of rain a few weeks ago. My little food plot needed a drink so bad. It still does, but the drought continues. And it’s probably too late now, anyways. Something growing in the middle of October seems unlikely. I did all that I could do. I needed God to send the rain. He hasn’t. I can only pray he does. I guess it’s that “thoughts and prayers” thing. But it looks like my food plot doesn’t lack the thoughts and prayers. It looks like, maybe, I’m being shown how bad it really would be without what God does during a normal year. There are so many today who are bemoan-ing, criticizing, and even scoffing whenever someone offers “thoughts and prayers.”

Their argument is that it is an excuse for inactivity. I completely understand what they mean, especially the “thought” part of the “thoughts and prayers” offering. What do my thoughts toward you, or anyone, actually accomplish? The “prayer” part is something altogether different, if prayer matters. But even in that, I understand the criticism. The thinking is this - just as I had to plant my field before God could water it, we all must do our part in other areas before God can do his part as well. For some reason, however, it doesn’t feel like the critics are looking for a partnership with God. It feels more as if they think prayer has very little, or no effect, on anything going on – like it hasn’t mattered in the past, and it doesn’t matter now, so, let’s forgo the prayer thing and just take action. I hope I’m wrong in my assessment. But have you ever thought that perhaps what is going on now is the result of peo-ple’s ongoing prayers? I mean have you ever thought that perhaps there would be more violence and more catastrophes, and more suffering, if not for those who bring these things before God each day, or if not for the ongoing mercies of God? Just ask it this way. Could things be worse? And if so, what (or who) keeps them from becoming that way? God has withheld the rain from my food plot – the rain I had come to expect, depend on, and yes, take for granted. He has shown me it could be worse. Does praying make a difference? Is it important? I think the answer to both questions is yes. I also think I need to act as well. And if I want an exam-ple of doing both, I can look to Jesus. He acted and prayed. And now that I think about it, I’m glad he “thought” about me as well. Gary Miller [email protected]

OUTDOOR TRUTHS

By Gary Miller

As the states’ human population increases, and more people move to the country increasing commuting traffic, so does deer-vehicle colli-sions. Drivers throughout the state should be cau-tious of roaming white-tailed deer throughout the year, especially during the rut or breeding season, typically from October to November. Studies show that about 45% of deer-vehicle col-lisions occur during this time as deer naturally increase their movements related to breeding. Most vehicle collisions occur near dawn and dusk because deer tend to move more during these times. Unfortunately, these are also the times that most humans commute to work in their vehicles. Although deer-vehicle collisions are an issue in South Carolina, the state is in a much better posi-tion than most states, particularly states in the Northeast and upper Midwest where there are a reported 30,000-50,000 deer-vehicle collisions annually. The S.C. Department of Public Safety reported approximately 2,900 reported deer-vehicle colli-sions in 2018, similar to the year prior. Sound deer management through regulated annual harvest is the most effective way of cur-tailing deer-vehicle collisions but following some commonsense rules for driving defensively in deer country will make the trip safer. • White-tailed deer are masters at evading predators; however, these same predator-avoid-ance instincts often cause deer to bolt in front of oncoming vehicles. • When deer are sighted well ahead of the vehicle sounding the horn several times, flicking headlights (if no oncoming traffic is present) and reducing the vehicle’s speed. • If deer are sighted only a short distance in front of the vehicle, these same collision-avoid-ance techniques - horn and flicking lights - may spook the deer into running across the road, so in that case it’s best to just slow down. • Always anticipate another deer if you see one or more crossing the highway and do not expect the deer to get out of the way. • Most serious injuries occur when the motorist loses control of the vehicle in an effort to avoid a deer and hits an immovable object, like a tree or embankment. If a collision with a deer is imminent, it is best to hit the deer rather than risk losing control of the vehicle.

• Motorists should understand that deer-cross-ing signs mark a stretch of road where deer have been hit previously, however, these signs do not mark specific deer trails. Deer may frequently cross for several miles where the signs are post-ed • Pay attention to changes in habitat types along the highway. The zone between habitat types is a likely place for deer to cross a road. Creek bottoms and where agricultural fields meet woodlands are also prime areas for deer to cross roadways. • Rural or secondary roads rank highest in deer-vehicle accidents because of the frequent curves and narrow shoulders. South Carolina’s deer population peaked in the late 1990’s, as did the number of deer-vehicle collisions. Since the year 2000, however, the esti-

mated statewide deer population has decreased approximately 30% with the decline believed to be a combination of changes in habitat, high antlerless deer harvests and coyote predation on deer fawns. What should motorists do if they hit a deer? Report the incident to the S.C. Highway Patrol or local law enforcement and to your insurance company. Drivers can keep deer for consumption as long as there is an incident report demonstrating that the deer was killed by a vehicle and not illegally shot. The S.C. Department of Natural Resources nor any other state agency will compensate motorists for injuries or damages resulting from deer colli-sions.


Drivers Should Watch For Deer On State Roads


Keeping our waterways clean and healthy is a huge effort. Your Clean Water Team at Winyah Rivers Alliance works diligently to ensure swimmable, fishable, drinkable water for everyone but we cannot do it alone. Volunteering in your community to help remove trash in our waterways is an excellent way to help. Trash pollutes our rivers and leads to a myriad of environmental problems that include harming wildlife, impeding water flow, and impairing water quality. During the month of September, the RIVERKEEPER® Adopt-a-Landing Program hosted its fall cleanup initiative to celebrate World Cleanup Month. With help from our dedicated adopters, we were able to organize 17 cleanups throughout the greater Winyah Bay watershed on three differ-ent waterways. More than 230 volunteers donated 720 hours of their time

to help remove 20,800 pounds of trash from our waterways. If you missed out on joining a cleanup in September, there is another chance to help us protect our local rivers. On Friday November 8, the South Carolina Floodwater Commission will host the Horry County Service Day from 8:30am - 2:00pm. Cleanup events will be coor-dinated from regional worksites in Conway, Bucksport, Socastee, and Loris. The Horry County Service Day will focus on

clearing drainage ditches, culverts, canals, streams, and waterways in the area. The work plans include clearing trees, limbs, trash, and debris, and removing accumulated sediment. All work sites except Loris will include watercraft cleanup in the Waccamaw River and adjacent waterways where debris is hindering the free flow of water leading to increased flooding during major storms. We are making a special appeal for volunteers with boats, both motor-ized and non-motorized, to help with on-the-water cleanup activities. Those volunteering for water-related cleanup should bring their own boat which must comply with all safety rules and regulations and be equipped with approved life jackets for all on board. Volunteers with motor boats/kayaks can participate by scouring the river edge for litter and debris as well as surveying the rivers for debris to be removed by others. Volunteers can also perform more extensive duties to remove fallen trees and larger debris. Winyah Rivers Alliance and the Waccamaw Riverkeeper is helping to identify areas of concern in our waterways. We encourage you to let us know of any areas of concern. At this time, we will not be able to remove any derelict vessels but want to focus on areas choked with debris. Please contact your Waccamaw Riverkeeper at [email protected] or call (843) 349-4007 for information. Visit https://www.horrycounty.org/serviceday to register to help on Friday, November 8th. Volunteers can sign up for their preferred location and preferred duty (light, medium or heavy). Coordinators will contact you via email outlining specifics for the day, including additional registra-tion details, parking information and other details related to your selected volunteer assignment. You will need to print and sign your waiver and bring it with you to the meetup location on Friday, November 8th. Join us on Friday, November 8th for the Horry County Service Day to protect our waterways for our families and our future. Register today at https://www.horrycounty.org/serviceday.

Revolver Or Semi Automatic

By Tim Owens

When choosing a weapon to carry, one must carefully choose what is best for them. You have the choice of a revolver or a semi-automatic pistol. Each type has positive and negative aspects to them. Careful consideration should be given to each one and ensure that what you choose fits your physical abilities and needs. Another considera-tion is weight of the pistol, how you want to carry it and will you carry additional magazines or speed loaders. Many people cannot operate semi-automatic pistols due to physical limi-tations. Some do not have the hand strength to manipulate the slide proper-ly without causing malfunctions. Some factors to consider are strength, hand size or possibly arthritis. Some do not like semi-automatic pistols because of

the likelihood of malfunctions. Some semi-automatics do not have an active safety on them and some consider them unsafe. While all pistols have a maximum number of bullets they carry, most common revolvers are limited to six bullets. This is another factor to consid-er when making the choice of a con-cealed carry weapon. If you choose to carry a revolver, will you carry a speed loader, should you need it? Most peo-ple will not carry a speed loader and further, it takes more training to become proficient at reloading a revolver in a timely manner. Revolvers are much less likely to malfunction, which is a strong point to consider. Another consideration is the size of the revolver, the weight and whether

or not it has a hammer. Many revolvers are light weight and hammerless. While being lighter is a good thing, depending on the caliber of bullet you choose, it may have more recoil when fired and be more difficult for some to manage. A pis-tol that is heavier in weight causes less recoil. If your choice of revolver is hammerless, you will have a stronger trigger press, making it more dif-ficult to hit your intended target. Hammerless revolvers are more comfortable to carry and less likely to get hung up on clothing. If your revolver does have a hammer, you may choose to fire it single action, having less trigger press to negotiate. When thinking about reliability, if a revolver malfunctions, you simply have to press the trigger again versus a semi-automatic requir-ing 3 to 6 steps in the malfunction clearance pro-cedure. You may think about paying a gunsmith to lessen the amount of pressure it takes to press the trigger. Semi-automatic pistols typically pro-vide the ability to have more ammunition than revolvers. No matter the choice you make, make sure you train to become proficient with your weapon. I cannot emphasize enough the impor-tance of training. In my experience, most people fail to train adequately. I am not trying to insult anyone and do not think that you need to train to be a Green Beret or Navy Seal. I do believe that you should be able to manipulate your weapon without having to stop, look at it and then think your way through the process to return the weapon to action. The point of carry-ing a weapon is to protect yourself, loved ones and possibly others who are in peril. I have stat-ed in previous articles that you must have con-scious competency with your weapon. Some refer to this as “muscle memory”. If you bring a weapon to a fight, make sure you know how to use it properly so that you are not a liability to yourself or anyone else. If you are unaware, Red Flag Laws close to home. “Columbia City Council passed a trio of bills designed to give police more powers to tackle both guns and bias-motivated crimes. The new ordinances will make it easier for Columbia police to confiscate firearms from gun owners who are deemed to be an “extreme risk;” tighten

restrictions on guns near schools; and create a city hate crimes ordinance. Under one new ordinance, the Columbia municipal court or other courts that may have jurisdiction in Columbia are empowered to issue protection orders if someone is deemed an “extreme risk”. (Greenville News September 18, 2019) This is the one-year anniversary since I have been writing for this publi-

cation. It has been a pleasure to do so and I hope to continue for a long time. I have asked to hear from you, the reader with your input, thoughts, concerns and questions. I encourage you to pro-vide your feedback so that I can address any issues you may have. Remember, I have to think of what to write each month, feel free to contact me with your thoughts. Contact me for any training needs you may have. I also welcome input from those who read my articles. If your church or business needs active shooter training, please contact me.

We have all heard the term arthritis, but do we really know what it is? Knowing the true cause of any condition helps us to treat that condition and not just cover up the symptoms. All treatment should be geared to addressing the cause , but sadly many modern medical treatments only affect the symptoms allowing for the progression of the disease and more complications. The word Arthritis comes from two Greek words; Arthro- which means joint, and –itis which means inflammation of. This is actually a misnomer since most arthritis is not an inflammation of the joint, but rather degeneration of the joint. There are over a dozen different types of arthritis, some from disease states like Psoriasis or rheumatoid, but the majority of arthritis, 80% is called osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is not the wear-and-tear disease as it has been touted. If that were the case, then why do we see severe arthritis in people that are not very active. Instead, osteoarthritis is a decay and degeneration disease of joint due to lack of motion. To understand what osteoarthritis is we need to understand what a joint is. A joint is simply 2 bones that can move with respect to each other. These bones are connected with a capsule that is filled with fluid called synovial fluid. There are no blood vessels inside the joint, so, to keep the joint surfaces healthy, the only way nutrients get in, and wastes can get out is when the joint moves. Trauma, moving or twisting wrong, or just poor posture can cause a joint to shift into an abnormal position stop moving correctly. If the whole joint, or just part of the joint stops moving, then the part of the joint that is not moving will not get new nutrients in and wastes within the joint will build up and cause decay and degeneration of the joint surfaces – this is then called osteoarthritis. The longer the joint is not moving, the more decay and degeneration we see in the joint, this may or may not cause pain. In the spine, the 24 moving vertebrae are attached with two joints on the bottom of the bone and two joints on the top. Vertebrae are also cush-ioned between each other with discs which act as a shock absorber. The discs also do not have blood vessels and rely on the motion of the verte-bra joints to receive nutrients from surrounding fluids and expel wastes. When vertebrae get stuck and don’t move, then the vertebra joints decay by osteoarthritis and the disc dries out and degenerates also; this is called Degenerative Disc Disease. Treatment. How is arthritis treated? MD’s may prescribe medications to help a patient deal with the pain associated with arthritis. Pain is a sig-nal from a damaged part of the body, telling the brain that there is a problem. Pain medications work to stop the pain signal from reaching the brain and may help relieve some of the resulting inflammation, how-ever, pain medications do not address the cause of the problem. Surgery will usually fuse the affected joints together which may stop the joint from hurting, but surgical fusion will alter the normal function of the body. When the body has to compensate for this altered function, other problems will develop. A more conservative approach to treating osteoarthritis is by getting the joints to move properly again. Restoring normal joint motion will allow for the normal action of pumping nutrients in and gettting wastes out. This is what chiropractors do. Chiropractors realign dysfunctional joints to restore their normal motion, helping to heal the joint and stop the cause of pain. Chiropractors also teach ergonomics and prescribe exer-cises to specifically strengthen muscles around the joint so it can stay in proper motion and function well. If you have arthritis pain or just can not move like you used to, make an appointment with a chiropractor today and start feeling young again!

What is Arthritis? with Dr Daniel A Falk

This time of year really puts our hearing to the test! Attending fami-ly gatherings can be loud and noisy, have you noticed that you are not hearing as well as you used to? Are you turning up the television? Are you asking others to repeat? It may be just earwax! Earwax: What you need to know: • Earwax is produced by glands in the ear canal. • The purpose of earwax is to trap dust and other small particles and prevent them from damaging or infecting the eardrum. • Normally, the wax falls out of the ear along with any trapped dust or debris. • Everyone makes ear wax, but the amount and type are genetically determined.

• Smaller ear canals make it difficult for wax to get out, lead-ing to wax impactions. • Impactions also occur when wax gets pushed deep within the ear canal. • Blockages

affect about 6% of people and are one of the most common ear prob-lems. • The most common cause of impactions is the insertion of cotton swabs and/or other objects into the ear. We offer FREE video ear inspec-tions to check if you may have ear-wax buildup! Call 843-272-1486 today to schedule your appointment!

Living in one of the most highly sought-after regions in the country to play golf, it is important that an injury will not keep you from doing what you love. Correcting or preventing golf related injuries is just like maintaining your car; without the cor-rect mechanics, your body will become damaged. While it is a common belief that golf is a relatively “low impact” sport, it is a sport prone to repetitive traumas and injuries similar to that of ten-nis and running. These chronic conditions include tendonitis of the elbow and shoulder, lower back pain, sacroiliac (SI) joint dysfunc-tion and much more. Many of these injuries are preventable with proper body mechanics and a regular body maintenance plan. Physical therapists are movement experts and attain countless years of training in this specialty. This allows them to decipher

patterns of movement, specific to an individual, that are the cause of pain or a future injury waiting to happen. When assessing a golfer for specific movement patterns, it is important that the body be looked at as a whole. More often than not, the root cause of the pain or dis-comfort stems from a completely different part of the body. The body works as a well-oiled machine with many gears, and if even one gear in the chain is not functioning properly, something is likely to fail, leading to injury. These “gears” include the bones, joints, mus-cles, nerves, ligaments and tendons of the body. From the alignment of your feet through the follow through of the swing, everything must work as one. Lower back pain is a leading cause of debilitating golf related injuries that can occur from a young age and can become even more prominent with age. There is a significant rotational stress that is placed on the vertebrae in the back swing and follow through swing, which jeopardize the integrity of the joints, muscles, nerves and ligaments that are located in close proximity. Stiff joints, just like rusty bolts, when under highly stressed and repetitive circum-stances will likely fail, affecting other surrounding structures. Stiff joints in the lower back are a normal occurrence with aging due to arthritis and decreased flexibility. With proper management, symptoms can greatly improve. Through a formal assessment performed by a physical therapist, in combination with joint mobilizations, manual therapy, dry needling and a strengthening/flexibility program, the risk of developing a chronic injury that may take you off the golf course can be prevented. The second major incidence that happens to both leisure and competitive golfers is shoul-der and elbow pain, likely stemming from a nerve entrapment or tendonitis pathology. Due to the repetitive nature of the upper body and arms with a golf swing, a nerve can become essentially “pinched” in places from the neck to the hand. Similarly, tendons, which attach directly to muscles, can become inflamed and in some circumstance begin to tear. Common injuries include rotator cuff tear/ dysfunction, carpal tunnel syndrome and golfers’ elbow (outer elbow pain). Major contributing factors to these injuries include poor shoulder/ scapu-lar muscle stabilization strength, decreased flexibility, tight grip and over rotation from the shoulders. Again, through a proper assessment from a physical therapist and a combination of manual therapy, ultrasound, dry needling, strengthening and flexibility, returning to the golf course without pain is possible. Get back to doing what you love and don’t let an injury keep you from getting the full potential out of your golf swing.

Not up to Par? Rehabilitation for Your Golf Related Injury

By. Dr. Zach Daniels PT, DPT, Cert. DN

As fall approaches the coastal regions of South Carolina, we see a change not only in the weather but also in the insect diversity around out landscape. As we move slowly toward winter, many pests will find a way into our homes to seek shelter from the harsh outside world. One of these pests that give a majority of us goose bumps is the spider, whose webs we adore as a Halloween decora-tion. They will, like all creatures, try to

find a cozy place to endure the winter. Even though spiders are the subject of many horror films and can send squeamish people to find a high chair to stand on searching for that broom, they are considered beneficial critters since they eat other harmful bugs. All joking aside, there are two spiders in South Carolina that are poisonous, the brown recluse and the black widow which can be found in all parts of the state. Bites from these two spiders are rare and the victim usually will not die, but death has occurred in the past. The bites from the black widow are very painful. Bites

from the brown recluse are not as painful and usually goes unno-ticed until other symptoms such as swelling, nausea and death of the skin and muscle around the bite occur. Identification of these two poisonous spiders is fairly easy. The black widow female is usually black in color and shiny having a red hour glass figure on the underside of the body. They usually range in size to about 1/2 inch long. The brown recluse spider will range in size from 1/4 to 3/4 inch in length and will be a golden brown color. There will be a dark violin or fiddle shape marking on top of the body where the legs are attached. The less dangerous black and yellow garden spider and house spider are responsible for most bites in South Carolina. Wolf spi-ders can be up to an inch and a half long, dark and hairy and one of the more common spiders seen indoors in the winter. Another common spider seen in the southern regions of the country during the fall is the Golden Silk spider. They are a large sized spider with the female body reaching a length of 1-1/2 inches. The female will sport orange and brown colors on a long cylindrical body and will have long legs with feathery tufts on its legs. They will build their large webs in open woods attaching the webs to tree branches sometimes stretching between several trees just at the right level to capture the innocent hiker or hunter. If you think you have been bitten by a spider, try to capture the spider for identification and see a physician as soon as possi-ble. Spiders usually bite people when they are accidentally touched. You can usually avoid being bitten by being extra care-ful around habitats where spiders may be hiding. Take care in removing covers on outdoor grills, lawnmowers, motorcycles, cars, boats and firewood piles, especially if they have not been used in awhile. Water meter casings, outdoor elec-tric boxes and other protected areas that are not opened frequent-ly may be good homes for black widows as well. Always wear gloves when cleaning up firewood, lumber or rock piles and when cleaning storage areas, especially outbuild-ings. You also want to wear protection when weeding around culverts, mailboxes and other structures which support spider webs. Clean up storage areas, including closets, garages, attics and crawl space storage since these areas provide protection for spi-ders. Clean away debris around the foundation of your home and keep lawn furniture, yard and garden item, firewood piles and other item away as well. Also, remove or trim vines and shrubs that grow up against the house as this will provide spi-ders shelter. Remove webs indoors and around windows and doorways by vacuuming or with a broom stick. Clean behind and under furni-ture. Outdoors, spiders like the area between the screen and win-dows of rooms that have lights near them during the evening hours. These lights attract insects the spiders feed on. Getting rid of insects around areas you want to limit spider invasions is a must since this is what the spiders feed on. Besides removing shelter, reduce, redirect or turn off outside lighting that attracts insects to doorways or windows. If you find spiders on a regular basis you may need a pesticide to help eliminate them. Several can be used as long as the label allows for indoor treatment. Professional pest control operators

About 35 miles from Georgetown flanked by farm and forest land, lies Boggy Swamp, one of dozens of tributaries that hold and filter water from the Black River in times of flood. The protection of these forested wetlands is critical to the protection of downstream communities of Andrews and Georgetown and made possible largely by private landowners upstream. Williamsburg County landowners Carol Norment and Barney Easterling take their commitment to their 5th generation farm and forest along Boggy Swamp seriously. Earlier this summer they chose to leave a lasting legacy of conserva-tion by ensuring the property remains in its current state and placed the prop-erty under a conservation easement. The 1,013-acre property has 850 acres of Prime Farmland and Farmland of Statewide Importance and fronts on Boggy Swamp, a tributary to the Scenic Black River for over two miles. “Ensuring that future generations continue to enjoy and appreciate the splen-dor and beauty of our natural world, particularly here at home, is of paramount

importance to our family,” said Barney Easterling. PDLT worked with the US Fish and Wildlife Service to identify several prior-ity species that are rare or at-risk that would benefit from the property including Rafinesque’s big-eared bat, tiger salamander, Bachman’s sparrow, bobwhite quail, green heron, spotted turtle, and Southern hognose snake. Seth Cook, PDLT Director of Land Conservation noted the significance of this property to the mission of the Land Trust.“It was great to work with a family with such a commitment to conservation. Protecting future fragmentation of family farms is a large part of our work and this project is a prime example.” With rich historical, natural and agricultural resources, the Black River water-shed is a focus area for Pee Dee Land Trust. The protection of Burgess Farms adds to the growing network of privately protected lands in Williamsburg County, expanding the blue and green belts critical to our way of life. “Permanent protection of the forested buffers along Boggy Swamp was a key component to this conservation project”, said PDLT Executive Director, Lyles Cooper Lyles. “The public benefits of water filtration, flood mitigation, wildlife habitat and scenic views these buffers preserve is well worth our efforts. The top notch sustainable forest management plan that will contribute to the local

forestry industry for future generations and prime soils available for food pro-duction on Burgess Farms, helped make this partnership a true win for our entire community.” The South Carolina Conservation Bank was a key partner in the protection of the Burgess farm. “Clean drinking water is a critical resource for our state. The best way to ensure water quality is the protection of the forests that adjoin our waterways,” commented Raleigh West, Executive Director, South Carolina Conservation Bank. “Burgess Farm, with its frontage on Boggy Swamp has a direct and positive impact on the quality of water entering the Black River,” About Pee Dee Land Trust Pee Dee Land Trust focuses on the Pee Dee watershed, which covers nine+ counties of the Pee Dee region in South Carolina: Chesterfield, Darlington, Dillon, Florence, Georgetown, Horry, Marion, Marlboro, and Williamsburg. Its mission is to protect, and to promote an appreciation of, the significant natu-ral, agricultural, and historical resources of the Pee Dee Region through volun-

tary land conservation and educational programs. Pee Dee Land Trust has a toolbox full of options to help landowners who are interested in conservation such as accepting donations of land or conservation easements. There are end-less options of ways to support PDLT as an individual or as an organization, including annual Membership, event sponsorship, hosting experiences, dona-tions to one of the endowments, land donations and planned estate giving opportunities. With its 75th conservation project to date, Pee Dee Land Trust has now pro-tected over 29,700 acres in the Pee Dee Region. While remaining in private ownership, the lands protected through conservation easements held by PDLT ensure that special places will be available for farming, forestry, and recreation for future generations. Through the use of permanent agreements, PDLT and landowners work as partners to ensure that land use activities on private property are limited in order to preserve key conservation values which bene-fit the public. These values include open space such as rural scenic views along roads and rivers, habitat for wildlife including game and non-game species, and the protection of farm and forest land to ensure it remains in farming and forestry rather than being converted to other uses.

This year has scooted by so fast. It’ hard to believe we are going to be celebrating Thanksgiving of 2019 already. Time doesn’t slow down or wait on or for anybody. The more real that understanding becomes to me, the more thankful I become for so many things. My life is truly a blessed one. I am so thankful to God first and foremost. Without His mercy and grace, I shutter to think where I might be. He is and has been so patient with me. His love has changed my life forever. The Gift of giving His Only Begotten Son, Jesus, to be the sacrificial offering required to wash away my sins, redeeming and reconnect-

ing me to Him makes me so very grateful and committed to love Him in return eternally. My family makes my life com-plete. I’m blessed to have a BIG family unit. My wife and I still have our parents. That, in itself, is a gift beyond words. Our Children which includes their spouses, Grandbabies, Brother and Sisters including In-Laws and their families all make me well up with joy and overflow with love and thankfulness. God has been so Good to me. My Friends, most of them are really extended family members to me, really are added blessings to me. The deposits they make in

my life through encouragement, prayers and

just being who they are, means the world to me. My Grandmaw told me once; “real friends are a rare find and they are treasures when you do find them.” How right she was. I love my friends and I am thankful for you. I could go on and on about the things I am thankful for in my life. I know you can too. With that said, I have a bit of a challenge for you. As we approach Thanksgiving Day 2019, put some thought into what you are thankful for. I recognize we all face challenges and diffi-culties but even in those things, there are things (especially people) we consider blessings and we are thankful for. To go a little farther in the Thanksgiving Challenge, the people in your life you consider to be blessings, verbalize it. Sometimes we take for granted that they know but it becomes incredibly special when we make sure they know by telling them. Those words we speak become valued treasure that last forever. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYBODY !!!

PS: I want to wish my wife a very special Happy Birthday!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TT!!! I love You!!!

Melt butter in microwave and whisk in remaining ingredients (except parm. cheese and parsley). Pour evenly over rolls. Cover with foil and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Bake covered for 20 minutes. Uncover and cook 5 additional minutes. (Optional) Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley. Slice into individual sliders and serve warm.
