Despite opposition from neighbors, the Tooele County Commission gave the go ahead to a rezone that will bring a temple and higher density housing to Erda.

The Tooele County Commission approved the rezone of 167 acres in Erda from RR-1 to a planned commu-nity zone during their meeting Tuesday night at the County Building.

The rezone paves the way for the

Tooele Valley Temple Subdivision, including a temple for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a new stake center for the Church, open space including parks, trails, and a pioneer cemetery, and 446 residential units on the Church’s former farm property northwest of state Route 36 and Erda Way.

The Church owns the property and has historically used it for farming.

The rezone request was made by

Suburban Land Reserve, a tax-paying real estate investment affiliate of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The vote to approve the rezone was 2-1. Commissioners Tom Tripp and Shawn Milne voted to approve the request. Commissioner Kendall Thomas was the negative vote.

Despite opposition from some Erda residents, Commission Chairman Tripp said that the subdivision had broad valley and county wide support.

As the County and state low-ers the COVID-19 risk level, Tooele County leaders want to recognize businesses that have taken steps to provide a safe environment for workers and safe service for the public.

The Tooele County Health

Department and the Tooele County Chamber of Commerce have combined efforts to recognize businesses that have pledged to follow the state’s phased guidelines with a “Stronger Together Commitment”

Businesses that display the certificate have pledged

that their business will follow industry specific guidelines during the COVID-19 pan-demic, according to the Tooele County Health Department.

The commitment was cre-ated in order for customers to know which businesses were doing their best to assure the safety of their custom-

ers, according to the Health Department.

In order for a business to become a part of the commit-ment, they must make sure their employers are taking extreme precautions, providing accommodations to high-risk employees, symptom check-ing, practicing social distanc-

ing, and proper cleaning and hygiene practices, according to the Health Department.

“If we all work together to adhere to the basic principles of the Tooele County Stronger Together Commitment, we will be able to continue to maintain operations, keep our doors open, protect the pub-

lic’s health, and minimize the impacts of COVID-19,” said Jeff Coombs, Tooele County Health Department Executive Director/Health Officer.

A homicide may have occurred on Garden Street in Tooele City, according to the Tooele City Police Department.

On Monday morning at 1:40 a.m., Tooele City police officers were dispatched to the area of Utah Avenue and Main Street.

Officers quickly responded to the call but did not find anything, so they cleared the call after searching the area, according to Jeremy Hansen, Tooele City Police Department’s public informa-tion officer.

Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 p.m officers responded to a psychiatric call at 363 N. Garden Street. During the call, officers spoke to several indi-viduals in the area.

High school sports teams resume practice

DARREN VAUGHANSPORTS EDITOR

High school sports and activities were greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, as the Utah High School Activities Association was forced to can-cel the spring sports season and the upcoming fall sports season was put into limbo.

However, as the state of Utah begins to reopen, so, too, have practices and games.

Over the past couple weeks, the Tooele County School District gave the go-ahead for teams to resume offseason conditioning sessions. Summer baseball games got under way on Monday, the same day football teams were allowed to begin practicing and working out on school grounds for the first time since mid-March.

“As good as it feels for me, I think it feels even better for the kids,” Stansbury coach Eric Alder said. “The kids admitted it — they missed school. They

missed the peer interaction every day. They missed work-ing out together, having a team and team goals. I can sense a renewed sense of energy and gratitude. For the better part of those two months, I don’t think anybody knew if we were

Tooele County, as well as all of Utah may be transition-ing to the smart green or “new normal” phase of the COVID-19 pandemic recovery shortly.

On June 2, the Public Health and Economic Emergency Commission met and unani-mously voted to recommend that Utah moves to a smart green risk phase of the recovery plan.

The new phase of recovery would allow nearly all business-es in the state of Utah, as well as Tooele County, to reopen safely

and help the economy move forward, according to a press release from Aundrea Peterson of the Utah state Senate.

The commission met and all voted last week to forward a positive recommendation to Gov. Gary Herbert to set a goal to transition from the current yellow phase to the new smart green phase by June 5.

The commission collected data that showed that a major-ity of Utahn’s can transition to the lower risk guidelines with-out any problems.

However, according to the commission, this does not mean that every Utahn should transition at the same time. Individuals who are high-risk should follow stricter guide-lines.

“The commission highly rec-ommends immunocompromised individuals, who are at a higher risk if infected with COVID-19, follow stricter protocols, and exercise all possible caution,” Peterson stated in the release.

Certain areas in the state will have the option to stay in the current phase or transition into higher-risk guidelines if neces-sary, based upon their real-time data.

Even though Utah may move into a “smart green risk phase”, individuals will still be encour-aged to wear masks to protect high-risk individuals and follow social distancing measures put into place by the health depart-ment, according to the press release.

“Utah is and will remain in a state of emergency, and the lower risk level does not indi-cate that our state is back to normal,” Peterson said.

COVID-19 cases may still continue to rise as Utah transi-tions into the next phase but officials say that the risk of hospitalization from the virus is low.

“The number of cases has proven to be a poor indicator of health risk for all Utahns since 99% of individuals who

contract COVID-19 recover,” said Peterson. “Hospitalization is a key factor and Utah has low hospitalization rates. In addi-tion, Utah has one of the lowest fatalities rates in the nation, increased tracing capabilities and COVID-19 testing centers across the state.”

The intent of the “stay home, stay safe” order put in place by the governor was to keep hospitals from becoming overwhelmed, according to the press release.

“As of June 2, the intensive care unit hospitalization in Utah averaged 61 percent capacity for COVID-19 and non-COVID patients for the past 14 days. ICU beds occupied by COVID-19 patients have not exceeded 11 percent of total capacity for the last 14 days. Hospital bed utilization rates are a primary indicator of the strain on the state’s healthcare capacity. The criteria is to have ICU hospital bed utilization under 60 percent for 7-14 days,” said Peterson

Spread of the virus from known contacts has been at 81% for the past two weeks and 58% of known contacts were exposed from a member of their household.

Spread from known contacts remaining about 60%, ideally above 85% is a good indicator that community spread is not happening very often, accord-ing to the commission.

The transmission rate in Utah has been below 1.2 for 22 days in a row. A transmission rate at or near 1:1 for seven to 14 days in a row indicates a good level of stability, reported the com-mission.

“We emphasize that green is not pre-pandemic,” said Sen. Dan Hemmert, co-chair of the Commission. “We are still in a state of emergency. Green is a lighter risk level, but it is not a return to normal. While data is indicating Utah can begin tran-sitioning to a lower risk level responsibly, it does not apply to everyone. Those in the high-risk categories should continue to take precautions. Together, we can protect the vulnerable while transitioning.”csutton@tooeletranscript.com

Tooele City Mayor, Debbie Winn, may sign a two-year grazing lease with Settlement Canyon Land and Water Association, as discussed at the Tooele City Council meet-

ing Wednesday evening.Tooele City owns about

1,170 acres of property in the Left-Fork area of Settlement Canyon.

In the 1930’s, Tooele City entered into leases with the Settlement Canyon Land and

Water Association, a non-profit organization, permit-ting the association’s cattle to graze on the property until present day.

However, the leases between the city and the asso-ciation are almost up and the association wants to renew the lease.

The lease has been renewed many times since the 1930’s.

The association has agreed to pay Tooele City $300 for each year they are in a lease agreement with the city.

The agreement also states that the association will only be allowed one horse or cow

per 30 acres of land.During the agreement,

Tooele City will control all water rights, the timber, and all of the vegetation grown on the land.

The cattle will be encour-aged to graze further up the mountain, because the asso-ciation will provide salt on

the crests of the mountain for the cattle.

The city council voted unanimously on Wednesday night to allow the cattle to graze on the property as long as the association follows all of the rules put in place by the city.csutton@tooeletranscript.com

A developer is holding out two plans for the same prop-erty in Erda.

The Tooele County Commission denied an appeal of a planned unit develop-ment - conditional use per-mit approved by the County Planning Commission for 112 acres in Erda during the County Commission’s meeting on Tuesday night.

They also tabled a rezone request for the same property during their meeting.

At the request of local devel-oper Joe White, the planning commission approved a PUD-CUP for 112 homes on the 113

acres. The site plan for the development showed 76 lots of roughly one-half acres each, 33 lots at 1-acre or larger, and three lots of one-third acre, three agricultural preservation lots totaling 19 acres and a 2-acre park.

Erda residents appealed the approval to the planning com-mission. The residents main-tained that the planning com-mission did not heed advice from the county attorney, the PUD ordinance was flawed, the PUD amounted to spot zoning, the PUD code was not strictly followed, and citizen comments were not accurately reflected in the meeting min-utes.

At the request of White, the State Office of the Property Rights Ombudsman issued a non-binding advisory opin-ion on the legal merits of the appeal.

The advisory opinion stated that “the third-party appeal fails to prove any error by the planning commission.”

The advisory opinion rec-ommended that the County continue with the PUD-CUP approval process.

The County Commission adopted a resolution Tuesday night denying the appeal citing the advisory opinion’s conclu-sion.

The resolution also directed the planning commission and

staff to make certain improve-ments to the permit process and public hearings.

Following the appeal of the PUD-CUP, White submitted another proposal for the 113 acres.

This proposal called for a rezone from RR-5 to RR-1 with 80 homes dispersed over the property on lots greater than 1-acre and space for a park.

The Planning Commission recommended that the County Commission approve this pro-posal.

County Commissioners asked White on Tuesday night which plan he wanted to pur-sue.

“It doesn’t really matter to me,” White said.

White explained that the rezone, with 80 lots larger

than an acre was an “olive branch” for Erda residents that didn’t like the PUD-CUP with 112 lots smaller than 1-acre.

If the County Commission approves the rezone and it is not subject to a referendum, White said he would pursue the rezone plan. If not, White said he would continue with the PUD-CUP.

White said both of these cur-rent plans are very different from his 2018 plan that called

for 108 one-third acre lots on the property. That plan was subject to a referendum.

Commissioner Kendall Thomas made a motion to table the rezone request for two weeks to give the com-missioners more time to think about the two proposals and to give the public more time to weigh in on the proposals.

The commission voted unan-imously for Thomas’ motion.tgillie@toeoletranscript.com

WASHINGTON — Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) signed a letter with Sens. David Perdue (R-GA), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Kelly Loeffler (R-GA), and Thom Tillis (R-NC) asking Acting Director of the Office of Management and Budget Russell Vought to phase out all federal regulations that have been waived during the COVID-19 crisis and allow the rules to go back through the regula-tory review process to determine if they need to be maintained, modified, or permanently repealed.

“As the United States begins to reopen amid the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses and their employees will continue to face obstacles as they work to navigate a new and more challenging environment,” wrote the senators. “We think it is essential that the federal government do more to provide a roadmap for businesses that is paved without unnecessary roadblocks and burdensome

regulations.” The senators cited several regulations

that have been waived to improve COVID-19 response efforts and provide greater flex-ibility during the pandemic. For example, because overly burdensome rules were sus-pended, doctors have been able to practice medicine across state lines and provide tele-health services for Medicare patients.

“We urge you to sunset all federal regula-tions that have been waived and continue to be waived during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing the rules to go back through the regulatory process to determine whether these regulations should be temporary or permanent,” continued the senators. “It is imperative the federal government continues to lessen the burden of unnecessary regula-tions in a systematic manner moving forward since we do not know where the next crisis may strike.”

The Utah National Guard is in Washington, D.C.

Utah National Guard sent approxi-mately 200 soldiers, activated at the request of the president, to support civilian authorities in Washington, D.C., amid civil unrest on June 1, 2020.

Utah National Guard soldiers trav-eled to our nation’s capital to assist civilian authorities around the D.C. metro area to preserve life, protect property, and restore peace.

“As a service member and fellow American, it has been heartbreaking to

witness the pain and frustration of our communities across this nation,” said Brig. Gen. Michael J. Turley, adjutant general, Utah National Guard. “This mission to support civil authorities in our nation’s capital is one of our toughest missions, but one that we are trained and ready to do. The Utah National Guard is committed to sup-port our nation to preserve life, protect property, and to restore peace during these unprecedented times.”

Utah Soldiers were already postured for a deployment and were able to be

reassigned to rapidly respond to the president’s request for support. The sol-diers were flown on military KC-135R aircraft from the Utah Air National Guard at Roland R. Wright Air National Guard Base, Salt Lake City to Joint Base Andrews, Washington, D.C.

The Utah National Guard stands ready to support the president in deal-ing with any crisis with a wide array of unique capabilities and are trained to respond to various types of emergen-cies.

The Utah National Guard has nearly 7,500 soldiers and airmen who remain ready to support our state and nation during this time of need.

BOISE, ID — As wildfire activity increases across the American West and Alaska, the Bureau of Land Management is responding.

The BLM has mobilized wildland firefighters and aviation support to incidents in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado and other states, with the goal of catching wild-fires before they grow into large, problematic incidents.

“Every year, the BLM sends its wildland firefighters across borders for wildfire response, and this year is no differ-ent. We’ve planned carefully and strategically for wildfire suppression during the pan-demic,” said William Perry Pendley, BLM deputy director. “Now, we’re implementing safe, efficient fire suppression operations with our firefight-ers working as ‘family units’ to protect people, property and themselves.”

The BLM has sent smoke-jumpers to Colorado, Nevada, and Utah to respond to wild-fires, and wildland firefighters in New Mexico and Arizona have responded to several inci-dents.

Wildland fire engines have been sent from Montana to help suppress wildfires in Arizona, and BLM aviation resources are moving through-out the country to locations like Lake City, Florida and as far north as Fairbanks, Alaska.

These efforts are part of a larger national wildfire reduction strategy guided by President executive order from President Trump.

The orders direct the Department of the Interior to

implement policies to improve forest and rangeland manage-ment practices by reducing hazardous fuel loads, mitigat-ing fire risk and ensuring the safety and stability of local communities through active management on forests and rangelands.

Every year, the BLM works with its federal, state, and local partners to suppress wildfires as soon as they ignite, a tactic known as “initial attack”.

Aggressive initial attack is the single most important method to ensure the safety of firefighters and the pub-lic; it also limits suppression costs. During the COVID-19 outbreak, the wildland fire agencies will continue to work to suppress wildfires with the goal of reducing wildfire size and intensity.

The BLM prepared for fire activity by working with its federal, state and local partners to develop specific COVID-19 wildfire response plans to provide for person-nel and public safety. These plans outline best management practices to limit the spread of the virus and to provide a safe working environment for all wildland fire personnel.

“Overall, the BLM will use its wildfire response plans to ensure safe, efficient wildfire suppression operations during the pandemic,” said Pendley. “We will continue to send wildfire suppression resources wherever they are needed, because that is what our neigh-bors, stakeholders, and rural communities expect from the BLM, COVID-19 notwithstand-ing.”

THURSDAY June 4, 2020A4 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

I’ll take any bit of normalcy I can getHaving been born in the

mid-1980s, the last nation-wide pandemic pre-dates me by almost 70 years. 

The civil rights movement was two decades before I was born. Even when riots erupted in Los Angeles over the arrest and beating of Rodney King, I was only eight years old and have only a vague recollection of my parents watching news coverage on television. The shooting at Columbine High School in Colorado happened when I was a freshman in high school, and Sept. 11, 2001, was at the beginning of my senior year. 

All of those were historic events, for sure. But nothing

could have prepared my gen-eration — or, really any genera-tion — for what has unfolded over the first five months of this year. Between COVID-19 and the demonstrations in the wake of George Floyd’s death, 2020 is going to be remem-bered as a year that forever altered world history, one way or another.

It is a lot to process for any-one, even for me. I have been in the newspaper business for 14 years as a professional and have never experienced something on this scale before. Isolated incidents? Sure. I lived and worked in the Southern California community where eight-year-old Gabriel Fernandez was murdered in 2013 and worked alongside those who covered the story up close. Before that, I moved to a New Mexico city reeling from the death of a Native American man after an altercation with law enforcement in a Walmart parking lot. 

If anything, I should be a little bit jaded, but like they have for everyone else, these past few months have hit me hard. I’ve had to change my life in ways I never imagined possible. I’ve seen things in the

news I never thought I would see in my lifetime. My emotions run the gamut from sad to frus-trated to furious to resigned. While I have a fair amount of life experience, I am at a loss to make sense of what this year has brought so far.

I can only imagine how the younger generation feels.

Tooele football coach Dru Jones shared the same concern as his players were allowed to resume formal workouts on Monday. For the past two-plus months, nothing has been nor-mal. Kids were forced out of school and the daily routine it provides — not just academi-cally, but socially. He joked about how his players weren’t complaining as much about practicing in 90-degree heat as they had previously, but there’s a big element of seriousness there. We all need some sort of structure in our lives, and in the case of high-school kids, school and extra-curricular activities provide a lot of that. 

It isn’t just the kids, either. I was chatting with Tooele base-ball coach Nolan Stouder as I copied his lineup card before Wednesday’s American Legion game, and he mentioned the size of the crowd that had showed up to Monday’s contest — noting the amount of money that the concession stand had taken in.

I’ve been covering summer baseball for years. While it is fun to watch, and from my

standpoint, it’s a great way to get to know the kids in a more relaxed environment, it isn’t usually the most popular event among spectators. If there are a dozen friends and family members in the bleachers, it’s a pretty good crowd under nor-mal circumstances.

As I approached Dow James Memorial Park on Wednesday evening, I was awestruck at how many cars were in the parking lot. Two days earlier, there was a lengthy wait to turn from state Route 36 onto Bates Canyon Road to reach Stansbury High’s baseball field. 

But in the summer of 2020, after everyone has been cooped up at home for the past couple months, people are desperate for any hint of normalcy they can find. And for a few hours, a baseball game is the perfect panacea. The players are back with their friends, playing the game they love and just gener-ally enjoying being kids. The adults get to watch our local youth, while enjoying the time-honored tradition of a hot dog and a soda under the setting sun. And while health remains a concern, life almost feels normal.

I know I won’t ever take these moments for granted again.

Tooele’s Brett Porthan had his final season of high school baseball taken away from him — and, with it, a chance for the Dixie State University to show why he was a preseason All-America selection on his way to playing Division I col-lege baseball.

Fortunately, the American Legion season has given Porthan one last chance to don the Buffaloes’ familiar purple-and-white uniform, and one last chance to display his high-ly regarded pitching skills. He put on a show in Wednesday’s 12-3 win over Farmington at Dow James Memorial Park, allowing no earned runs in 6 2/3 dominant innings.

The Buffs (2-0) fell behind the Phoenix 3-0 in the top of the second inning after a rash of errors in the field. A ground-er squeaked through the right side of the infield, and a throwing error by Porthan on a comebacker gave Farmington a pair of baserunners. Porthan struck out the next two batters, but the Phoenix came up with an RBI single to shallow right to take a 1-0 lead. A third error allowed two more Farmington runners to score.

However, Tooele wasn’t

rattled by the rough start. Instead, as Porthan slammed the door on the Phoenix the rest of the game, the Buffs’ bats came to life. In the bottom of the third inning, Camden Colovich and Dillon Palmer hit back-to-back singles to jump-start Tooele’s offense before Porthan ripped a two-run double to right-center field. Porthan later scored on a Farmington error to tie the game, and Brock Beer’s RBI single to right-center drove in Mason Donadio with the go-ahead run.

The Buffs blew the game open in the bottom of the fourth inning, sending 10 batters to the plate as part of another four-run frame. Joseph Tippetts was hit by a pitch and Bryson Byrd walked to lead off the inning, and Palmer walked ahead of another RBI single by Porthan. Connor Spindler reached on a Phoenix error that drove in Byrd to make it 6-3. Palmer came home on a double-steal with Porthan to stretch the lead to four runs.

A bit of controversy followed later in the inning with two outs, when the home-plate umpire called ball four on Beer but the scoreboard showed only three balls. In the confu-sion, Porthan was caught in

a rundown between second and third base and was tagged out for the apparent third out. However, after a bit of conver-sation between the umpires, Beer was awarded first base and Porthan was placed on third with speed-up runner Zander Adams on second. Jake Hervat then hit an RBI single, driving in Porthan.

Tooele nearly ended the game in the sixth inning via the 10-run mercy rule with another four-run outburst. Spindler hit a one-out double into the left-field corner, and Adams was safe at third on Donadio’s fielder’s choice. Beer hit an RBI single into right-center, and Hervat singled to left before Austin Avery’s two-run single to right-center put Tooele up 11-3. Byrd capped the scoring with an RBI single to shallow left, driving in Hervat with the game’s final run.

Porthan got the first two Farmington batters to fly out in the seventh inning before being replaced by Colovich on the mound. After allowing a base hit, Colovich struck out the last batter of the contest.

Porthan had eight strikeouts and walked just one to pick up the win. He was 3-for-4 at the plate with a double, three RBIs and two runs scored. Beer was 2-for-3 with two RBIs, a walk and a run, while Hervat was 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run. 

Tooele will play host to Viewmont on Friday, with the 17-and-under team playing at 3:30 p.m. and the 19-and-under team at 6 p.m. On Monday, the Buffaloes will face rival Stansbury on the road.dvaughan@tooeletranscript.com

We mustn’t let sin weigh us down with weariness

MY ANSWER

From the writings of the Rev. Billy Graham

Q: I get weary of my family telling me that Hell is a literal place. Why should I believe their wild imaginations and misin-terpretations of passages in the Bible? How can we know what Hell really is? — I.M.

A: Mankind can only know the reality of Hell by reading the truth of Scripture. Hell is a lake of fire (Revelation 20:15). It’s a place of sorrow (Psalm 18:5). It’s a place of wailing (Matthew 13:42). It’s a place of outer dark-ness (Matthew 8:12). It’s a place where people scream for mercy (Luke 16:24) and a place of ever-lasting punishment (Matthew

25:46).That is God’s description —

not man’s. And God declares that all people outside of Jesus Christ are headed to that terrible place unless they repent of their sins and turn by faith to Jesus Christ.

The same Bible that teaches the wrath, anger and judgment of Almighty God also teaches His love and mercy. Scores of Scripture passages emphasize this truth.

For those who have confessed their sin and turned to the Lord He says: “The Lord your God is a merciful God, He will not forsake you nor destroy you” (Deuteronomy 4:31). For those who have not humbled them-selves, this is the day of deci-

sion. Outside of Christ we are all wicked and steeped in sinful disobedience to God. “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, and He will have mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abun-dantly pardon” (Isaiah 55:7).

What a merciful promise com-ing down from Heaven to the human race. We mustn’t let sin weigh us down with weariness. Hell will be filled with eternal sinfulness that will never be satisfied. Turn to the Lord while there is still time and know the richness of His forgiveness.

FRONT-PAGE FLASHBACK

In 1920,Tooele stores close at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays during the summer

The Tooele Transcript Bulletin has published Tooele County news

since 1894. Here is a flashback of local front-page news from 25, 50, 75 and 100 years ago that occurred during the first week of June.

June 6-8, 1995Winds measured at 90 mph

roared through Tooele County June 5, causing semi-truck rollovers, and the closure of Interstate 80 from Wendover to Lake Point for more than four hours.

The winds also downed util-ity poles, uprooted trees, dam-aged buildings and prompted power outages in advance of a powerful cold front from the northwest.

Sgt. Bruce Riches from the Utah Highway Patrol’s Tooele office said that a dozen semi-

trucks and two recreation vehicles tipped over on I-80 between Wendover and mile marker 38.

Later in the week, the Tooele County School Board of Education unanimously approved three new principals for district high schools June 6.

Doelene Pitt would serve as Wendover High School’s new principal. She had been acting principal after Bruce Knowlton was released from the position in February over a certification issue.

Murray High School assis-tant principal Steve Nielsen would replace Larry Harrison as the Tooele High School prin-cipal and David Gray, assistant administrator at Payson High School, would replace Randy Houk as Grantsville High School principal.

June 2-5, 1970With thoughtful improve-

ment of its downtown area directed toward the develop-ment of a people-oriented city center, and careful preserva-tion of its historical heritage, Tooele could become Utah’s most beautiful city.

This was the summation of twin proposals for city improvement made to the Tooele City Council by mem-bers of a study team from the University of Utah, June 1.

The plan would be used by

city planners as an aid to defin-ing the problems confronting Tooele’s business section.

Friday’s front page announced fishing season would open June 6 for all Tooele County streams and lakes.

Conservation Officer Roy Garrard said fish plants had been made at Clover Creek and Settlement Canyon Reservoir.

“Water in South Willow Canyon is too high to permit us to make a plant,” he stated. “Fishing on the stream will be permitted however and fish will be planted there later in the season.”

June 5-8, 1945A rainstorm struck with fury

in Tooele June 4 piling up a record .95 of an inch in a few minutes followed by torrents of water plowing down the streets

and lanes and into buildings on lower levels.

By noon June 5, Amos Bevan, local weather observer, had recorded 2 inches of mois-ture for the five days of June, and the clouds were still hang-ing low. The normal rainfall for one year had been reached in eight months.

Later in the week, the Tooele County Wildlife Federation planned to plant several hundred carp in a pond at the rear of Tooele City Hall June 9. The fish would be tagged according to size and prizes would be given to the kids catching them. Fishing would start at 7 p.m.

Fishing was open to women and children under 12 years of age. Prizes to be offered would be on display in the Tooele Mercantile window.

June 4, 1920Acting upon the petition of

the Tooele Commercial Club, the Mutual Improvement Association and almost every merchant in Tooele, Tooele City Council passed a resolu-tion at their regular meeting June 2 favoring a Wednesday half-holiday during the months of June, July and August, and the same to become perma-nent during the same months of the year thereafter.

Stores would close at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays. Patrons would need to arrange to do all their trading before this hour.

The first Wednesday half-day-holiday would be cel-ebrated by a ballgame between Tooele and Midvale.

Correspondent Mark Watson compiled this report.

A4TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

Nine months into his mandate to investigate possible Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, special counsel Robert Mueller has finally found some actual Russians to indict. Unfortunately, by pointing the finger at these Russians, he has exposed hypocrisy within the U.S. system.Last year, Mueller’s investigation produced indictments against four former Trump campaign advisors who had dealings with Russians during their international business careers before joining the campaign. Most of what those indictments covered could have fallen under the purview of the Internal Revenue Service and seemed out of place in a multimillion-dollar investigation into alleged electoral subversion.But now, we actually have some indicted Russians — 13 individuals who supposedly had a hand in the 2016 electoral outcome. How so? Primarily by screwing around on social media.

The U.S. Justice Department has charged these 13 Russian nationals with conspiracy to defraud the United States. Supposedly, the accused tried to pollute the sacred electronic insti-tutions of truth that recently brought us fascinating (but false) political information such as “President Trump orders the execution of five turkeys pardoned by Obama” (a story that provoked 914,429 social media inter-actions, according to a 2017 year-end analysis by Buzzfeed News).Former FBI director Mueller’s long arm of the law has reached into that pristine electronic river of democracy, which was also home to this viral Facebook post about his own former bureau: “FBI seizes over 3,000 penises during raid at morgue employee’s

home” (1,145,470 interactions). How lucky we are that Mueller and the Justice Department are saving us from any disinformation that those Russians might be spreading.The 13 Russians are accused of creating “hundreds of social media accounts” under fake identities. They then allegedly pretended to be U.S.-based activists on social media, posting election-related opinions in an effort to influence the outcome in favor of Donald Trump and, during the primary elections, Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders.The indictment implies that the operation was linked to the Russian government, and that a St. Petersburg-based company called the Internet Research Agency failed to register as a foreign agent before purchasing paid advertisements on social media. Silly Russians — you’re supposed to pay a lobbying firm in Washington to do all that for you on

See, eat and hearSo! Today’s headline in a publica-tion proclaimed Gov. Herbert stating, “The public wants the government to do something about school shootings.” What an understatement! Recognizing that our society is now oriented toward recreational and leisure time, much of which is structured around our graphi-cally violent movie industry, does the government have the guts to take on Hollywood?

Without public support, govern-ment interaction will not happen. It normally takes a Pearl Harbor to get us out of our doldrums and face the reality of such issues. When you spend time at the dump, you start smelling like the dump. How many times have I observed my peers involved in graphi-cally violent movies on their laptops with rapturous fascination, literally drooling at the lips in becoming both psychologically as well as intellectu-ally involved in much of the hideous stunts that many of these films portray. Would you feed you children arsenic?We become what we see, eat and hear. How about a stiff prison term for parents who allow their children

to view such aberrations. This narra-tive includes video games including “Mortal Combat” and “Grand Theft Auto,” which are among the lesser of some of the droppings that our culture provides. We are talking responsibility here. Such movies are not allowed at our house. Our grandchildren, when we have the pleasure of their company, still view treasures such as “Bambi,” “Dumbo” and “Aristocats.” A few years ago I read a letter to the editor from a very astute citizen in the Transcript Bulletin that was entitled, “Spoons do not make people fat.” The reverse side of which reflected “Guns do not kill people. People kill people.” With our socialized attraction toward violence nowadays, if the government takes your guns away, perpetrators will be forced to use crossbows, then ball bats, and finally, fountain pens. We really need to get behind the government in resolving this deteriorating phenom-enon that we have allowed to become an almost monthly socialized event.

OUR VIEW

No one else could have described the predicament more clearly:“This is a serious problem,” said Rep. Merrill Nelson, R-Grantsville. “It’s important to all of the residents. The commuter problem affects our livelihood, it affects the time with our families, it affects our activity time after work, and most importantly, it affects our safety as we travel back and forth through that dangerous stretch of road.”What Nelson was referring to is the commuter traffic bottleneck of state Route 36 and Interstate 80 at Lake Point, and commuters’ heavy reliance on I-80 and SR-201 to drive to and from the Wasatch Front for work. His words were offered during opening remarks at an informational meeting he organized between the Utah Department of Transportation and local citizens at Stansbury High School on Feb. 1.Nelson’s words clearly defined the problem, but the purpose of the meeting was made even more clear before it even began: UDOT officials who were scheduled to attend and make a presentation were delayed from Salt Lake for nearly 30 minutes because — you guessed it — an accident forced evening commuter traffic to a crawl on I-80.UDOT officials at the meeting, including executive director Carlos Braceras, reviewed past and future projects intended to reduce commut-er congestion and increase safety. What’s to come is the $74.4 million phase one of the Midvalley Highway in 2019, and this year’s replace-ment and expansion of bridges at Lake Point’s Exit 99 and at Black Rock two miles to the east on I-80.To help minimize anticipated congestion from those two projects, UDOT plans to build both new bridges next to the existing bridges. And both new bridges are reportedly designed to carry extra traffic capacity.Which sounds fine and good. But if there was a takeaway from the Feb. 1 meeting, it was this: UDOT’s current plans will only help reduce traffic congestion and improve safety — but commuters shouldn’t expect clear sailing after Midvalley Highway’s phase one and the bridges at Lake Point and Black Rock have been replaced. Because Tooele Valley’s population is growing and is projected to continue, which means more commuters and general traffic than today, everyone should continue to plan on long delays on SR-36, I-80 and state Route 138.And traffic congestion and delays may likely continue, even if the state pushes forward with an auxiliary lane on I-80 between Lake Point and Black Rock, and an SR-201 extension from Black Rock directly to SR-36 in Lake Point. Neither of those projects are currently funded and the projected cost of the SR-201 extension is $200 million.Yet, even though such projects may not fully alleviate congestion woes, the state must continually work toward improving traffic flows between Tooele and Salt Lake valleys. That work will likely take on even more importance after the Utah State Prison is finished, and as busi-ness parks west of Salt Lake International Airport continue their march toward the Great Salt Lake.Those facilities will employ thousands, many of whom may choose to live in Tooele Valley, further adding to commuter congestion. Unless the state acts purposefully on this problem with solid funding, relief may never arrive.

If only Joe McCarthy had lived to see this moment, when it is suddenly in vogue to attribute large-scale events in American politics to the hand of Russia and to inveigh against domestic subver-sion.Robert Mueller released an indictment of 13 Russians for crimes related to their social-media campaign to meddle in our internal affairs in the run-up to and after-math of the 2016 election.

Mueller obviously isn’t a McCarthyite, and can’t be held responsible for the hysteria — and hopeful expectations of an impeachment-level event — that has built up around his work. His indictment is, as far as anyone can tell, rigorously factual. That’s prob-ably the point of it — to create a record of an episode that we should want to know as much about as possible and prevent from ever hap-pening again. The Russia campaign was a shockingly cynical violation of our sovereignty. President Donald Trump would do himself and the country a favor by frankly denounc-ing it. But the scale of the opera-tion shouldn’t be exaggerated. In the context of a hugely expensive, obsessively covered, impossibly dramatic presidential election, the Russian contribution on social media was piddling and often laughable.

The Russians wanted to boost Trump, but as a Facebook executive noted, most of their spending on Facebook ads came after the elec-tion. The larger goal was to sow discord, yet we had already primed ourselves for plenty of that.Does anyone believe, absent Russian trolls on Twitter and Facebook, that we were headed to a placid election season involving an incendiary, mediagenic former real-ity TV star bent on blowing up the political establishment and a long-time pol who had stoked the enmity of Republicans for 30 years and was under FBI investigation?

If you read the Mueller indict-

ment, you might think the Russians were everywhere, not only adver-tising on Facebook (“Trump is our only hope for a better future”; “Ohio Wants Hillary 4 Prison”), but organizing rallies around the coun-try. But it’s not clear these rallies even came off.The Russians didn’t do anything to us that we weren’t doing to ourselves, although we were doing it on a much larger, more potent scale. The Russians are just aping the arguments we are already hav-ing with one other, and the sewer-ish level of much of the discussion on social media.

The New York Times ran a report the other day on Russian bots, in the immediate aftermath of the Parkland school shooting, posting on Twitter about gun control. It’s hard to believe that this is going to rip apart the American body politic when many perfectly respectable, red-blooded Americans themselves advocate for gun control, and often in the immediate aftermath of shootings.In a better world, Trump would be less defensive about the Russian investigation, and his opposition would be less obsessively invested in it (at least until such time that it produces a genuine bombshell). We should seek to shut down Russian influence as much as possible, with-out losing perspective. We aren’t divided because of Russia; we’re divided because we have genuine, deeply held differences. The fault, to the extent there is one, isn’t with the bots, but with ourselves.

GUEST OPINION

When Donald Trump and his followers refer to “America,” what do they mean?Some see a country of white, English-speaking Christians.Others want a land inhabited by self-seeking individuals free to accu-mulate as much money and power as possible, who pay taxes only to protect their assets from criminals and foreign aggressors.

Others think mainly about flags, national anthems, pledges of alle-giance, military parades and secure borders.Trump encourages a combination of all three — tribalism, libertarianism and loyalty.But the core of our national identity has not been any of this. It has been found in the ideals we share — politi-cal equality, equal opportunity, free-dom of speech and of the press, a dedi-cation to open inquiry and truth, and to democracy and the rule of law.We are not a race. We are not a

creed. We are a conviction — that all people are created equal, that people should be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin, and that government should be of the people, by the people and for the people.Political scientist Carl Friedrich, comparing Americans to Gallic people, noted that “to be an American is an ideal, while to be a Frenchman is a fact.”

That idealism led Abraham Lincoln to proclaim that America might yet be the “last best hope” for humankind. It prompted Emma Lazarus, some two decades later, to welcome to America the world’s “tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe

free.”It inspired the poems of Walt Whitman and Langston Hughes, and the songs of Woody Guthrie. All turned their love for America into demands that we live up to our ideals.“This land is your land, this land is my land,” sang Guthrie.

“Let America be America again,” pleaded Hughes. “The land that never has been yet — /And yet must be — the land where every man is free. / The land that’s mind — the poor man’s, Indian’s, Negro’s, ME —.”That idealism sought to preserve and protect our democracy — not inundate it with big money, or allow one party or candidate to suppress votes from rivals, or permit a foreign power to intrude on our elections.It spawned a patriotism that once required all of us take on a fair share of the burdens of keeping America going — paying taxes in full rather

OUR VIEW

No one else could have described the predicament more clearly:“This is a serious problem,” said Rep. Merrill Nelson, R-Grantsville. “It’s important to all of the residents. The commuter problem affects our livelihood, it affects the time with our families, it affects our activity time after work, and most importantly, it affects our safety as we travel back and forth through that dangerous stretch of road.”What Nelson was referring to is the commuter traffic bottleneck of state Route 36 and Interstate 80 at Lake Point, and commuters’ heavy reliance on I-80 and SR-201 to drive to and from the Wasatch Front for work.

The Stansbury football team came away from Friday’s Region 11 road game against Ogden as the only undefeated team left in region play, but the Stallions were left ques-tioning their focus after yet another slow start.

Stansbury (3-3, 2-0 Region 11) led just 21-20 at halftime, but poured it on in the second half en route to a 56-20 tri-umph that gave the Stallions a one-game lead over four other teams in the region standings. It marked the second game in a row where Stansbury over-came a slow start to win, as the Stallions erased a 28-7 half-time deficit in its 35-28 win over Tooele a week earlier. The Stallions have outscored their past two opponents 63-0 in the second half.“It’s like Jekyll and Hyde, who they are,” Stansbury coach Clint Christiansen said. “It just comes down to them not mentally getting them-selves ready. They know it and we’re addressing that now. If the team that shows up in the second half shows up for four quarters, we have a chance to be a pretty good football team, but we’ve got to figure that part out.”

The rough start somewhat overshadowed another stellar performance for Stansbury’s rushing attack, which seems to be hitting its stride after strug-gling early in the season. Silas Young rushed for 158 yards and four touchdowns, Mitch Lindsay ran for 77 yards and two scores and Bridger Roberts carried the ball six times for 65 yards and a TD as the Stallions pounded the Tigers (2-4, 1-1) for 425 yards on the ground.Young staked the Stallions to a 14-0 first-quarter lead with a pair of touchdown runs from 5 and 6 yards out.

After a disappointing loss in the Region 11 opener, the Tooele football team’s game plan coming into Friday’s road game against Ben Lomond was simple: run, run and run some more.

The Buffaloes executed that strategy to perfection, attempt-ing 68 rushing plays and gain-ing 426 yards on the ground en route to an impressive 37-7 win over the Scots that evened their region record at 1-1.“That was the game plan,” said Tooele senior Jeno Bins, who led Tooele (3-3, 1-1 Region 11) with 171 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries. “We wanted to come out and take it to them and have more momentum going into the rest of our season. We still have more to go, but we’re on track for sure.”

The Buffs’ ground game was so dominant that the Scots (0-6, 0-2) had the ball for less than three minutes in the first half, and for barely over 15 minutes for the entire game. Ben Lomond managed just 226 yards of total offense compared to Tooele’s 445.

It was a refreshing bounce-back effort for the Buffs, who gave up 28 unanswered points in the second half of their 35-28 loss to Stansbury a week earlier.“The kids responded to how we practiced,” Tooele coach Jeff Lewis said. “I’m very pleased with that, and that’s a tribute to our kids to come back the way they did. The plan was to come out and play a little smash-

mouth.”Tooele opened the game with a 15-play, 71-yard drive that took up 7:30 of game time. The drive, which included a 4-yard run by Bins on a fourth-and-1 play, ended with a 4-yard scor-ing run by Ben Wasson.

The Grantsville girls ten-nis team disregarded the Salt Lake City newspapers’ predictions about who would win Region 13 and outscored Judge Memorial by 2 points and Waterford by 5, taking first place Friday.

The newspapers had predict-ed other squads would reign as region champs. Grantsville wasn’t “in the picture,” GHS coach Stephen Thurgood said.Thurgood said he figured, “I’d rather not be on the front page. If you’re not on the front page, it goes much better.”Of the region win after play-ing both Thursday and Friday, he added, “Yeah, we won, but it wasn’t easy.”

For the Cowboys, Marissa Linares and Maci Jackson placed first at No. 2 and 3 singles and Paige Peterson and Lexi Colson placed first in No. 1 doubles, with sisters Brooklyn and Brynlee Butler taking sec-ond in No. 2 doubles.

Additionally, Kayla Johnson took fifth place at No. 1 singles. She came back from a loss in her first match against Judge Memorial and won her next two.“If you really look at it, if Kayla’s not there and every-body moves up one, we don’t win any points. So, she didn’t win any points, but in a way she did,” Thurgood said,

Regarding Linares’ final region match, Thurgood said, “She beat the Waterford girl for the second time. This time it was 6-4, 6-3. Marissa was ahead the whole time, she never got behind. It just went back and forth and back and forth, right to the very end.”Of her final match

against Waterford’s Tanisha Martheswaran, Linares said, “She’s really fun to play with. So, we had some really long points.”Linares said she could tell Martheswaran was playing to her backhand, trying to attack what she might have thought was Linares’ weakness.

“I felt pretty confident going into it, because I hadn’t lost in region so far. I’m sure she and

her coach had been strategiz-ing about how to play,” Linares said. “ … there were some deuces that were a little close, but it was good.”Linares said she suspects she

will meet Martheswaran again at state this week.In Jackson’s final round against Amy Robinson from Judge Memorial, she found herself down 5-1 in the first

set. She came back to beat Robinson 7-5 in that set and then capped it off with a 6-1 trouncing. Her previous match-up with Robinson in region play was just like that champi-onship match.In the prior match, she also came back from a 5-1 set to win 7-5, but with the second set, it was a bit closer at 6-3.

At region she said, “I got down in the finals 2-5 and I just kept telling myself ‘It’s not over ‘til it’s over.’ And to ‘just keep playing my game and hit the ball.’”When asked how much pressure she was feeling in the region tournament, Linares said, “I felt more pressure than normal, but, I knew it wasn’t a huge deal if I didn’t win.”

Referring to her come-back twice against Robinson, Jackson said, “All I could think was ‘Wow!’ because I did that twice — I got down. The first time it was 1-5, instead of 2-5, and both times I came back and won 7-5. So, I was just amazed

DARREN VAUGHANSPORTS EDITOR

One week after a disap-pointing loss on its home-coming night, it was the Grantsville football team’s turn to play the spoiler Friday night in Roosevelt.

The Cowboys put together their most dominant perfor-mance of the season, demol-ishing Union 43-15 in the Cougars’ homecoming game

ed other squads would reign as region champs. Grantsville wasn’t “in the picture,” GHS coach Stephen Thurgood said.

“I’d rather not be on the front page. If you’re not on the front page, it goes much better.”

ing both Thursday and Friday, he added, “Yeah, we won, but it wasn’t easy.”

Linares and Maci Jackson placed first at No. 2 and 3 singles and Paige Peterson and Lexi Colson placed first in No. 1 doubles, with sisters Brooklyn and Brynlee Butler taking sec-ond in No. 2 doubles.

Additionally, Kayla Johnson took fifth place at No. 1 singles. She came back from a loss in her first match against Judge Memorial and won her next two.“If you really look at it, if Kayla’s not there and every-body moves up one, we don’t win any points. So, she didn’t win any points, but in a way she did,” Thurgood said,

Regarding Linares’ final region match, Thurgood said, “She beat the Waterford girl for the second time. This time it was 6-4, 6-3. Marissa was ahead the whole time, she never got behind. It just went back and forth and back and forth, right to the very end.”Of her final match

against Waterford’s Tanisha Martheswaran, Linares said, “She’s really fun to play with. So, we had some really long points.”Linares said she could tell Martheswaran was playing to her backhand, trying to attack what she might have thought was Linares’ weakness.

“I felt pretty confident going into it, because I hadn’t lost in region so far. I’m sure she and

A day after a fire destroyed

two chicken coops and killed

as many as 300,000 chickens

at Fassio Egg Farms in Erda,

employees were beginning to

clear debris.“We’re cleaning up as best

as we can,” said Corby Larsen,

vice president of operations at

Fassio Egg Farms.The two chicken coops

destroyed in the fire were con-

nected to the additional coops

and processing plant by a

conveyer system, which trans-

ported the eggs, Larsen said.

The fire used the conveyer sys-

tem connection to spread from

the initial coop into the second

building.Work to clean up the pro-

cessing plant for operation was

underway Wednesday but eggs

laid by the farm’s approximate-

ly 600,000 remaining chickens

are unable to get to refrigera-

tion quickly enough without

the conveyer system, Larsen

said. As a result, all of the eggs

produced since the fire must

be disposed of, he said.

The conveyer system is

a priority for the farm and

Larsen said they hope to have

some version of the system in

place within the next couple of

days. The farm is also looking

to replace the chickens killed

in the fire within the next few

weeks.Chickens in the adjacent

coops are being monitored

for effects from the fire and

smoke, Larsen said.

Tuesday’s fire as a frighten-

THURSDAY June 4, 2020A6 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Casinos from Lake Tahoe to Laughlin announced plans to lure back customers beginning June 4, with one downtown Las Vegas hotel owner buying more than 1,000 one-way airline tickets to boost interest around the coun-try.

The promotions began the morning after Gov. Steve Sisolak lifted the casino shut-down order he imposed in mid-March to pre-vent people from spreading the coronavirus.

“It’s on us,” Derek Stevens, owner of the D Las Vegas, Golden Gate Hotel & Casino and Circa Sports said in a 30-second video about his airline ticket giveaway that doesn’t require bookings at his properties. “Las Vegas needs you.”

Not all properties will open at first and business will prob-ably start slowly, said Virginia Valentine, president of the Nevada Resorts Association. Nightlife will be limited.

Casino giant MGM Resorts said it will reopen its Bellagio,

New York-New York and MGM Grand resorts, and its Signature gambling-free towers. Caesars Entertainment will reopen Caesars Palace and the Flamingo in Las Vegas and its Harrah’s properties in Lake Tahoe and Laughlin. The Cosmopolitan emphasized its open-air balco-nies over the Las Vegas Strip.

Las Vegas Sands Corp. said its Venetian will open first, and its Palazzo tower at a later date.

“I think it will ramp up as people come back, locals and drive-ins first and then air trav-el,” Valentine said. “There’s been a lot of careful, thoughtful plan-ning going into this reopening. It’s going to be important that we get it right.”

The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino at Lake Tahoe began offering rooms for $20.20 a night in a promotion marking the return of gambling that was shut down statewide for the first time since legalization in 1931.

Some employers have said their workers will be required to wear facial coverings. Regulators

want masks available and encouraged for customers on request.

Wynn Resorts, which announced plans more than a month ago for thermal imag-ing of employees and guests at all entrances, said it will open both of its Las Vegas Strip tow-ers beginning June 4, including beauty salon, barber shop, spa and fitness center amenities.

Hotel guests will be tempera-ture-screened to identify if they have a fever, generally register-ing 100.4 degrees or higher. The Gaming Control Board said guests will be required to com-plete a symptoms self-assessment at check-in, and resorts must have a medical professional on site.

Sisolak announced the open-ing date after learning Tuesday that he’d visited a workplace last week where an employee who was not there at the time later test positive for COVID-19.

The governor announced Wednesday night that his swab test came back negative and he

has shown no symptoms of the virus.

Sisolak cited a 35-day decline in the rate of new cases of COVID-19 and said the state is ramping up testing and contact tracing, and has hospital capac-ity to handle cases that emerge. Health officials report the virus has infected more than 8,100 people in the state and killed at least 396, mostly in the Las Vegas area.

Sisolak also approved in-person religious services for up to 50 people starting Friday. The governor, a Democrat, drew a Trump administration warning this week about his ban on reli-gious gatherings of 10 or more people.

Nick Trutanich, U.S. attorney for Nevada, and Eric Dreiband, assistant U.S. attorney gen-eral for civil rights, commended Sisolak for “extending religious freedom protections.’” They pledged their cooperation in a joint statement Wednesday “as we work to balance civil liberties and public safety through the process of reopening.”

Regulators said all front-line resort workers should be screened for COVID-19 before returning from furloughs and plans should be in place to iso-late infected visitors.

Acknowledging that outdoor summer temperatures in Las Vegas top 100 degrees, health officials advised 15-minute retests of guests who have 100.4-degree readings. Those still with high readings will get additional screening and possible medical referrals.

Casinos will encourage hand-washing and offer hand sanitizer while limiting guests to 50% of fire code capacity in gambling areas, restaurants and stores. Swimming pool lounge chairs will be spaced apart.

Gamblers will be limited to three at blackjack and other table games, four at roulette, six at craps. Some resorts plan to disinfect dice between shoot-ers, clean chips periodically and change card decks frequently. Some will encourage the use of cellphones for touchless check-in, as room keys and to read res-taurant menus.

Smoking will still be allowed, the Gaming Control Board said.

The governor said bars, res-taurants, convenience and gro-cery stores with 15 slot machines can resume gambling operations. Nightclubs, dayclubs, buffets and large venues will remain closed.

Makenna Elaine Roberts

Makenna Elaine Roberts returned home to her Heavenly Father on June 1, 2020, after a long battle with cancer. She was born Sept. 28, 2003, in Tooele, Utah. She is the beauti-ful daughter of Don and Shelli Roberts and a loving sister to Jason, Brooklyn, Savannah and Boston. She was born 11 days before her “twin cousin” Austin Weight. Makenna was diag-nosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma at the age of 14 and fought like a warrior for two long years. She was a champion in everything she did and her story has impacted the lives of thousands of people around the world as they followed her battle.

Although Makenna was the middle child, she was always the “little mother” to her younger siblings and cousins. She loved to play soccer and even had the opportunity to play with TC United and Elite competition soccer organiza-

tions. She was a huge fan of the Real Salt Lake and Utah Royals FC, who were always sending special visitors to brighten her day and send her words of encouragement. Family trips were the high-light of her life. Disneyland, Alaska, Yellowstone, and Kauai were her “heaven on earth.” Makenna enjoyed life to the fullest and loved camping with Grandma and Grandpa and riding ATV’s with all of her family. She especially loved speed and jumping her Jeep. Makenna loved Jeeps; she spent many hours in “Rufus,” the white Jeep that was donat-ed to her by an anonymous angel family. They made her wish come true on her 16th birthday and from that day on she was a member of the Jeep Community. The Jeep Community spent countless

hours loving Makenna through Jeep rallies, parades, and fun-draisers. Makenna’s favorite band was Imagine Dragons and she loved to blast “West Coast” while driving her Jeep. She got to meet the band members and attend several concerts. They provided so much sup-port to Makenna through the Tyler Robinson Foundation. There were so many people who supported Makenna and her family through her journey including the Hayes Tough Foundation, Nixon Strong, Millie’s Princess Foundation, the Tooele 911 Superbowl sponsored by Mountain West Medical Center, first respond-ers throughout Tooele County, and countless others. Makenna got to cross many items off her bucket list thanks to the generosity of so many people. Our greatest source of comfort, support, and advice came from a special warrior cancer mom support group.

The family would like to thank the doctors and staff of Huntsman Cancer Institute and Primary Children’s Medical Center for the incredible care provided to Makenna and the entire family; a very special thanks to Dr. Fair, Dr. Poppe and Mak’s angel nurse Melanie.

A viewing will be held Friday, June 5, 2020, from 6 to 8 p.m., at Tate Mortuary, 110 S. Main St., Tooele. A brief viewing will be held

Makenna is survived by her parents and siblings and her precious dog Lucy; grandparents Tyler and Mayor Debbie Winn (Tooele), Pamula Brunson (Tooele), and Mel and Gwen Roberts (Tooele); great-grandmother Ella Rae Hayes (Tooele) and countless aunts, uncles, and cousins.

“Her poor little body was just worn out. It just wouldn’t let her do all the things she wanted to, so she went on to a place where she could be a guardian angel. She will always be young; she will always be beautiful. And I per-sonally feel much safer knowin’ that she’s up there on my side” – Steel Magnolias

THURSDAY June 4, 2020 A7TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

going to have a season or if we were going to be in school. It was scary for everyone. It was depressing and unnerving. The uncertainty of this whole situ-ation is not something humans are used to dealing with, not knowing what lies ahead.

“I know sports isn’t every-thing in life, but it’s a huge part of these young people’s devel-opment, a huge part of their relationships and their friend-ships. These are the formative years in a high school kid’s life, and to see that taken away from them for two months was painful.”

There are safety protocols in place that the teams are fol-lowing in order to get back to practice. Each student-athlete must fill out a brief health questionnaire and have their temperature taken each day before they can start working out. Alder said Stansbury’s football team has its 130-player roster split into three groups of no more than 50 each, split-ting time between the weight room and the field. Tooele and Grantsville have moved their strength training outside.

“We’re doing an all-body workout — medicine balls, sledgehammers, tire flips — kind of the old-school way,” Tooele coach Andru Jones said. “There’s some guidelines and regulations in the weight room and we can’t fit all our kids in the weight room, and it’s a safety issue - kids can’t have a spotter because you have to stay six feet away.”

Grantsville coach Kody Byrd said his players are excited to be together again, to the point that they sometimes have to be reminded to maintain social distancing.

“It’s hard to keep them apart and spaced like they’re supposed to, especially when they haven’t really been able to hang out and see each other,” Byrd said. “We approached it with, ‘we’re going to jump through whatever hoops we have to to ensure and increase the likelihood that we’ll have a season.’”

The loss of two-plus months of weight training and film sessions has and an effect on players, though things were made easier through online videoconferencing.

“Our district allowed us to do Zoom meetings,” Jones said. “We could show them video of what a good technique looks like and things like that. That was a blessing for us. Our var-sity guys were able to remem-ber our things, and now it’s just getting on the field to perform those.”

Byrd said his players received workout plans via email, and their teammates helped encourage them to stay in shape.

“It seems like they took that to heart and worked out on their own quite a bit,” he said. “This group of seniors stepped up really well and have taken some leadership roles to make sure kids are working out.”

There is still a level of uncer-tainty surrounding the upcom-ing season, which is scheduled to kick off Aug. 14. The UHSAA said the season will likely pro-ceed as scheduled, as long as

all counties in the state are in the low-risk (yellow) phase. As of Thursday morning, Salt Lake City and the San Juan County communities of Bluff and Mexican Hat remained in the moderate-risk (orange) phase. The protocol that would go into effect should a student-athlete test positive for COVID-19 dur-ing the season is among the questions yet to be answered.

“I’m sure they’re going to come out with guidelines and say, ‘here’s what happens — here’s what you need to do if someone tests positive for this virus,’” Alder said. “Will they shut us down? Will one kid getting the virus affect 100 other kids that are completely healthy and ready to play, or can we come up with a way where we isolate the individual and be able to safely proceed?”

It has also not been deter-mined whether spectators will be allowed to attend games this fall, though there is some optimism.

“It would be nice to have a home opener (Aug. 14) and have fans cheer for us,” Jones said. “At the end of the day, if we can just play the game, it would be great for the mental well-being of our kids.

“Some people will say, ‘is it really worth doing all this to play?’ It is. To see a kid smile and get to throw a football is priceless. To me, it is worth it. The guidelines are going to

help save kids and save people (in general).”dvaughan@tooeletranscript.com

led local officers to believe that a homicide may have occurred at the Garden Street residence.

Tooele City police officers have been on scene investigating since Tuesday afternoon when the second call came in, accord-ing Hansen.

The officers also called the state crime lab who are current-ly investigating the scene.

The state crime lab has col-lected enough evidence in the home to suggest that a homicide did occur, according to Hansen.

The Tooele City police are now looking for two individuals: Brandon Burr, 38 and Caitlyn Fluckiger, 26, who may have

further information about the homicide.

Police believe the victim of the homicide is Devin Perryman, 24, a missing West Valley indi-vidual.

Tooele City police are instructing anyone with infor-mation related to the where-

abouts of Burr, Fluckiger, or Perryman to call Detective Bree Dalton at 435-882-8900 or call the Tooele County Dispatch Center at 435-882-5600, option one. If you have any information please reference case number 5782.csutton@tooeletranscript.com

“Let me give you my take on this,” he said. “This is a unique opportu-nity. While we’ve heard all these near neighbors that say they are the most affected, I think the effect of this tem-ple goes way beyond Erda and affects the lives of many people throughout the valley. While I understand that they are affected, you can see the Church, or SLR, has gone a long way to put in a buffer. If you have a 1-acre lot you don’t have a third of an acre lot or something smaller against your house, but open space there.”

Thomas wanted to table the deci-sion for two weeks to give more time for SLR and Erda residents to reach a compromise on the density of the housing.

The approval of the rezone, fol-lowing county code, came with a development agreement that for this development set the overall residen-tial density at 446 units in the devel-opment, which is an average of 2.66 units per acre.

The draft plan of the community

structure showed 32 acres of open space, walking trails, parks, a pioneer cemetery, a farmer’s market area, and the temple along with the 446 homes. The lot sizes for the homes varied from half-acre to 4,000-square-feet.

“I’m concerned about the high den-sity down there,” said Thomas. “I’m concerned that if we pass this tonight they (the Erda residents) won’t have the opportunity to negotiate with the church or SLR. ... I think there’s some compromise here. Table it and bring it back in two weeks.”

Commissioner Milne said there was “no silver bullet” as far as a com-promise that would satisfy both the residents and SLR.

“They (SLR) have tried to preserve some open space and pastoral scene,” said Milne.

While a maximum density is set in the development agreement, Milne noted that with the planned commu-nity zone there will be more public input prior to the community struc-ture approval.

Milne held out hope that during that process SLR could be swayed to come back and lower the density.

Representatives of SLR have said the temple and the proposed housing

development have been presented as a single proposal because the Church wants residential develop-ment around the temple for security purposes and to help cover the cost of infrastructure, as well as providing a high quality community for a diverse population.

There was no public hearing on the rezone during the meeting on Tuesday night. A public hearing was held by the County Planning Commission in May.

The majority of the speakers at that meeting favored the temple and the housing development.

However, around 20 Erda residents

spoke against the rezone during the public comment period of the County Commission meeting.

They expressed concern with the density of the housing development and requested that a vote on the rezone wait until Erda residents vote on incorporation.

Janice Clegg, a long time Tooele County resident expressed her con-cerns over the effect of changing the density of housing in Erda.

“When you put 10 to 12 homes per acre it changes our community drasti-cally,” she said.

Shirlene Johnson, an Erda resident, shared her concerns too.

“That many homes on that much property is going to take the farm-ing feel away,” she said. “I’m for the temple coming here, but I’m also for 1-acre lots.” tgillie@tooeltranscript.com

“We hope this effort instills customer confidence in our businesses. The cornerstone of our communities are our small businesses and entre-preneurs. This is an opportu-

nity for our county to work together, show our unity, and support local businesses,” said Jared Hamner, Tooele County Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Executive Director.

A local business, Another Man’s Treasures in Tooele City that sells antiques, CD’s, records, and jewelry said they took the pledge to keep the community and their business safe.

“I took the pledge at that time, because I wanted my business to be open. I also wanted customers to know that my business was a safe place to be and that we could accommodate them,” said owner Tyson Hamilton.

THURSDAY June 4, 2020 B1TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

This week saw us loading up a new 2020 Honda Ridgeline for a Saturday

adventure that would lead us down into Juab and Millard Counties to see some awesome central Utah sites. We had heard of a hike we wanted to take known as Paul Bunyan’s Wood Pile located on Highway 6 just south of the Little Sahara Sand Dunes turn off.

So, off we drove all snug inside one of our favorite small trucks, the Honda Ridgeline, for the 55 mile trip. This year, Honda has freshened up the Ridgeline adding a new 9-speed transmission along with making their Honda sens-ing system standard on all models.

This is a huge step as we have always been enthralled with this sensing system ever since we first saw it in 2015 in an Acura TLX. Back then

the fact that a vehicle could keep you centered in the lane of travel was so awesome, and now Honda seems to have taken that technology to a new level with their safety sensing system.

The system not only comes with Honda’s great Lane Keep Assist, but they have also added a Collision Mitigation Braking System, Forward Collision Warning — which we found works very well — Road Departure Mitigation, Lane Departure Warning and

Adaptive Cruise Control.All of these systems worked

exceptionally well, pretty much making the Ridgeline act almost like a completely auton-omous driving vehicle. About the only time it got somewhat confused was when we hit a stretch of narrow road and the painted line on the right-hand side disappeared for a short distance.

The drive to the Woodpile required a short trip on a dirt road, one that any vehicle could negotiate and the Ridgeline did a fantastic job, although this would not be the last trip on dirt for the day!

Paul Bunyan’s Woodpile turned out to be as impres-sive as the photos we had seen online. It looks just like a pile of square logs that are about to fall over, set into the mountain landscape. It requires a short somewhat moderate hike to get to the bottom and a more vig-orous uphill climb if you want to see it from above. This really is a hidden gem in central Utah, and well worth the trip to Juab County to see. The turn off to the dirt road is not well marked, so be careful to look closely for it if you wish to take this adventure.

After that, it was on to Delta, Utah, for a quick break and some road trip goodies. Along U.S. Highway 6 we saw a sign indicating Topaz Mountain was only 36 miles away. We didn’t know exactly what Topaz Mountain was, but a quick look at Google told us it was a great place to find gemstones so off

we headed for a longer adven-ture in the Ridgeline.

Inside, the updated Honda proved to be just as luxurious as any of the new trucks we have driven. The seats were leather clad and heated, of course, along with the steering wheel, which helped to make the early April morning com-mutes even better.

Navigation was standard on the RTL and helped us find our way out to Topaz Mountain as it required a short 10 mile ride on dirt roads to get there. This time we were glad to have a small AWD truck since parts of the road proved to be more rocky and uneven than we would have been comfortable trying in just any vehicle.

Turns out there is a private part of Topaz Mountain that

is actually on a mineral claim where they blast off the rock and charge folks who want to look for the topaz. We met Ronda Stemmons, who owns the claim, and she was excited to tell us all about how they mined amber colored crystals that changed to clear with exposure to the sun. She even gave us some of our own Topaz to take home after our 45 min-ute lesson on mining in west-ern Utah.

We then needed a place to partake of our lunch we had brought along with us, so it was off further into the dessert to find a spot suitable to park the small truck and eat in the bed. After a short search, we pulled off road into a small clearing amongst the piñon pines and put everything in the bed of the Ridgeline ready for a tasty lunch in the dessert. The truck also comes complete with a truck bed sound system that would pump the satellite radio out back so we could enjoy it during lunch.

This was a fine addition and would make tailgating even that much better with the addition of the sound system that took no forethought to get ready. There is also a great

tub in the back of the bed that could be loaded with ice and drinks or, of course, just a place for tools. A stop is included in the bottom to drain the water when done.

The Ridgeline comes with a 3.5-liter V6 engine with 280 horsepower and 262 ft.-lbs. of torque. It also has a class-lead-ing payload capacity of 1,584 pounds in the bed, and when equipped with AWD will tow up to 5,000 pounds.

As we proved, the Ridgeline would be the perfect weekend vehicle for any family that wants to get out into the great outdoors. After a week and a really awesome Saturday we managed a very nice 22 mpg in the Ridgeline.

The newly refreshed Honda Rigdeline proved to be great on weekends and really any other day of the week, making for the perfect family hauler, mover and daily driver.

Grantsville IrrigationThe reservoir is 12.5’ lower than it was

at this time last year. Because of this, the allotment for residents has been changed to 100,000 gallons per residential share. Meter readings were taken June 1st. Agricultural users have been issued one regular turn for the season. We under-stand this is frustrating to everyone. The Grantsville Irrigation Board regularly reviews the water situation and will issue more gallons and turns if there is any way possible. Please evaluate your watering habits and cut back as much as possible.

Slowtheflow.org has a lawn watering guide as well as tips on ways to conserve. Thank you so much for your support.

THURSDAY June 4, 2020B4 TOOELE TRANSCRIPT BULLETIN

DEAR DR. ROACH: I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea in the early 1990s and have been using a CPAP machine ever since. I’ve just recently begun seeing adver-tisements on television for a product that cleans the inside of your CPAP machine. It is common knowledge that we must clean the facial mask, hoses and other external parts of the machine on a regular basis, as well as changing the filters, but I have no recol-lection of ever having been informed by any of my sleep specialist doctors that the inside of the CPAP machine requires regular cleaning. I also do not recall ever seeing any instructions regarding this in any CPAP manual. I notice that this new CPAP cleaning machine costs approximately $250-$300, and I have already read a few reviews posted by people who have had lots of problems with it functioning properly.

Is it really necessary to clean the inside of your CPAP machine? I’ve never been informed of this in all the years I’ve had sleep apnea, and

I have gone through several machines. — C.P.

ANSWER: A CPAP machine is a pressurized device used mostly for people with obstruc-tive sleep apnea. I also have seen these advertisements, but a review of the litera-ture suggests that there’s a very low risk of infection or allergic reaction due to a dirty machine, mask or hose. Although the cleaning devices do work, I could find no evi-dence that they are necessary or offer any benefit beyond regular cleaning with soap and water. This should be done regularly. Filters should be changed every two to four weeks.

• • •DEAR DR. ROACH: If you

have had hepatitis B, are you able to donate anything (e.g., blood or organs)? I was never diagnosed with the disease, but I tested positive for the antibodies during a blood donation over 30 years ago. Someone recently told me that I can still donate plasma. Is this true? I signed up on my driver’s license to be an organ donor. Should I uncheck that

box? I don’t want to endanger anybody unknowingly. — J.S.

ANSWER: Antibodies to hepatitis B may be developed during natural infection or through vaccination. A doc-tor can tell which kind from a blood test, by determining whether the hepatitis B core antibody is positive. People who have had natural infection (a positive core antibody) may not donate blood or plasma. People who have been vacci-nated (the surface antibody is positive, but the core antibody is negative) may safely donate blood and plasma.

As far as transplants go, before considering using a per-son’s organs for transplant, the transplant team checks for the

presence of active virus with sophisticated DNA testing. The likelihood of your endangering someone is low.

There is such an organ shortage that organs often are accepted from people with a history of viral hepatitis. For example, the medical team taking care of a person who is likely to die imminently without a heart transplant may accept the heart of a person with a history of hepatitis B infection. The person receiv-ing the transplant likely would need antiviral treatment after surgery.

Don’t uncheck the box. Your organs may help extend the life and sight of many people.

• Who says you have to be human to serve your coun-try? Between 2001 and 2009, a goat called William (“Billy”) Windsor was part of the 1st Battalion Infantry Unit of The Royal Welsh, with the title of lance corporal, no less. Although he was briefly demoted to fusilier follow-ing “unacceptable behavior” at Queen Elizabeth’s official birthday celebrations, he eventually saw the error of

his ways and regained his more esteemed rank.

• Actor Brad Pitt chipped out pieces of his own front teeth to play the role of Tyler Durden in the movie “Fight Club.”

• And speaking of teeth ... in the American Civil War, soldiers were required to have at least four opposing front teeth so they could open a gunpowder pouch. Some draftees had their front chompers removed to avoid service.

• What’s in a name? Depends on where you’re from. When the Coca-Cola Company was ready to import to China, it needed a moniker

that fit with the majority of that country’s spoken lan-guages. The original choice, “Kekoukela,” sounded phonetically similar, but in certain dialects translates to “bite the wax tadpole” or “female horse stuffed with wax.” Further research yield-ed a far more satisfactory solution, “Kekoukele,” mean-ing “tasty fun.”

• Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley was one of literature’s first prominent vegans.

• Scientists studying a deadly disease transmitted from camels also found that the animals contained the patho-gens from which the common cold was born. Do we now know whom to blame?

• As many as 35% of people who hire a professional cleaning service admitted to cleaning up before the help arrives.

• Native Southerners might well be surprised to learn that the word “y’all” dates to 1631! It was first used by the English scholar William Lisle in the sentence, “The captive men of strength I gave to you, the weaker sold; and this y’all know is true.”

“This plant is heavy,” said young school-age neigh-

bor Sylvia to her mom as they each carried a honeyberry plant they had purchased at our local nursery to their backyard garden. “Why did we get two big honeyberry plants instead of one?” she continued. “To grow luscious honeyber-ries, we need to have both of

them so they can pollinate to bear fruit. Mine is a Tundra Honeyberry, and you are car-rying a Berry Blue Honeyberry, the important pollinator,” continued her mom, Kari. “If we had only one plant, we wouldn’t get the berries we want to snack on and use for jam or bake into a pie.”

“Lessons in the garden are bountiful,” said Kari to me over the fence. “When we dig our shovels in the dirt and talk about what we’re planting, the kids engage and listen. They ask questions, and best of all, we learn together and relate in the doing.” The adage is true, she continues, “when it comes to growing vegetables, the kids will eat them if they plant, water and harvest them.”

That’s when older brother Anders chimed in and remind-ed me of the cucumbers he grew and shared with me last summer. “I put 10 seeds in one hole. A big mistake! They all sprouted, grew and took over and strangled the tomato plants,” he said. This year he is planting his cucumber seeds along the fence. Another les-son learned.

If you have the inkling to garden and grow your own food, do it now! While fun and educational, gardening is also challenging and requires patience. Here are some obser-vations you might find helpful from the pint-size gardeners in

the neighborhood. • Kids may think worms

look slimy, and may be icky when they poke their shovels and fingers in the dirt to plant, but tell them that they are very important helpers in mixing the soil and bringing air into it.

• If kids are distracted by the bees buzzing around, say that they are vital for all plants to grow. A pollinator-friendly garden can include cheap and cheerful annuals such as zin-nias, cosmos, sunflowers, pop-pies and nasturtiums in addi-tion to your vegetable plants.

• Oh, and those cute, fuzzy and innocent looking bunny rabbits hopping around the neighborhood? They can eat everything you are growing in your veggie plot in one night. Better put a little fence around the emerging green beans and peas before they are nibbled away while you sleep.

winning series “Donna’s Day” is airing on public television nationwide. To find more of her creative family recipes and activities, visit www.don-nasday.com and link to the NEW Donna’s Day Facebook fan page. Her latest book is “Donna Erickson’s Fabulous Funstuff for Families.”

Kids will eat veggies they grow in garden

Tom Cruise’s fans always thought he was out of this world. So

Tom has decided to live up to that expectation by join-ing forces with Elon Musk and his SpaceX on an action/adventure project with NASA that’ll actually shoot in outer space and on the space sta-tion. Shooting will begin after he’s completed work on “Mission: Impossible 7,” due Nov. 19, 2021.

It was unusual casting when Mary Poppins met The Rock in “Jungle Cruise,” but they must have really hit it off because Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson will now star in a second film together, “Ball and Chain.” They’ll play a bickering couple who acquire superpowers after a meteor passes near them. The catch is that their pow-ers only work if they work together. The script is based on a 1999 comic book (what else), and the film will prob-ably land at Netflix.

• • •Before this year’s Oscars,

people didn’t know who Taika Waititi was, but after a nomination for best direc-tor and winning an Oscar for writing “Jojo Rabbit,” he was duly noted. However, your kids are about to worship the New Zealander, first as the writer and director of “Thor: Love and Thunder,” opening February 2022, and for writ-ing and directing the upcom-ing “Star Wars” epic.

MGM may operate out of an office instead of a studio these days, but they were the winner in the bid-ding war for Ron Howard’s

upcoming $55 million film “Thirteen Lives.” The film, by the Oscar-nominated writer of “Gladiator,” is about the gripping rescue of the Wild Boar soccer team and their coach from that flooded cave in Chaiang Rai Province, Thailand, that we watched live on television.

• • •While many of us are

sweating next month’s rent, there are some of our favorite and un-favorite celebrities who never sweat to get paid. Jennifer Aniston is pulling in $28 million a year, while “American Idol” and country star Luke Bryan deposits $52.5 million yearly. Sofia Vergara of “Modern Family” and Head & Shoulders ads makes $44 million, which will change substantially now that “Modern Family” has ended and she’ll be get-ting even more as a new host of “America’s Got Talent.” Ellen DeGeneres has to settle for a mere $80.5 million a year from her various shows and commercials, while shock jocks Rush Limbaugh and Howard Stern have to squeeze by making a mere $87 million and $93 mil-lion, respectively. The Eagles rock group has to split $100 million a year, and the two leads in “Outlander,” Sam Heughan and Cartriona Balfe, each make $100,000 an episode. Meanwhile, poor Vice President Mike Pence made only $235,083 for being No. 2. Guess vice doesn’t pay what it used to!

ASK AMY

Grieving dad struggles to move onDear Amy: Four years ago, I

had a serious work-related acci-dent. I was getting ready for my fourth surgery. It was a risky procedure, and there was a good chance I might never walk again. I was terrified.

Right before my surgery my wife left, which, in itself was hard, but she abandoned all four of her children too. Three of them were my stepchildren (they were biologically hers).

The two years since she left have been extremely difficult because three of our four chil-dren stayed with me and the fourth moved in with their bio-logical father. My surgery went very well. It took a long time, but I can walk again.

My biggest worry has always

been the kids, though. My ex-wife ignores all of them. She has never helped to support them.

They are so angry at her and I don’t want them to carry that anger and resentment, because that’s how I have been my whole life. I want them to be happy.

I give them all the love I have, but their mother’s aban-donment has been devastating to all of them. I don’t care about the pain she caused me person-

ally, but my children want their mother.

It rips me apart that she only calls them every four or five weeks, and only sees them once or twice a year.

I’m just an old broken man that could really use some advice.

– Broken HeartDear Broken: For you to

help your children through this estrangement, it is vital that you find ways to become less broken. Your physical recovery is a triumph. Now you need to continue to expand and demonstrate your emotional resilience.

From your narrative, it seems that your ex’s reprehensible behavior has become a defin-

ing experience for you. But it’s not. What you are doing now - steadfastly parenting through this storm - this is what defines you!

You have to show your kids that life does go on, and that you - and they - have some con-trol over what happens next. I hope you will build a legacy of positive and hopeful experi-ences that become the defin-ing next chapters. Build your friendships with other adults. Other successful single parents (fathers and mothers) will help to show you the way.

You might also explore the possibility of legally adopt-ing your stepchildren, so that they will always know that you belong together. Changing your legal status from stepdad to “Dad,” might help all of you to move on together as a family.

Dear Amy: I have been mar-ried for five years. We have two beautiful boys. While we’ve had typical ups and downs, we are happy.

In high school, I had a seri-ous boyfriend for three years. It was a very emotionally abusive and a very unhealthy relation-ship for me.

However, for the last year and a half, I have had dreams about this high school boy-friend every night!

Some dreams are a bit steamy, but most of them are like clips from an unlived life. We’re doing daily tasks in our home, spending time with his family, going out with friends.

The kicker is, I’m so happy in these dreams! My rational mind knows that there were few posi-tive aspects to this relationship from over a decade ago, but what gives? A dream or two is one thing, but 18 months of them!?

– Confused DreamerDear Dreamer: Our subcon-

scious sometimes emerges dur-ing dreams to help us resolve issues in our waking lives. I suggest that you start writing down your dreams each day in order to look for emergent pat-terns that you could interpret. The act of writing will help you to recall specifics in your dreamscape.

My own interpretation is that you might feel guilty for staying in such an unhealthy relation-ship for so long. Rewriting the old script (exploring the “unliv-ed life”) might be your mind’s way of trying to prompt an atti-tude of acceptance and forgive-ness toward your younger self. I hope you follow this prompt.

The fact that you are hav-ing these dreams every night without resolution is cause for concern. A psychologist could help you to turn the corner and dream differently.

You can email Amy Dickinson at askamy@amydickinson.com or send a letter to Ask Amy, P.O. Box 194, Freeville, NY 13068. You can also follow her on Twitter @askingamy or Facebook.

A BETTER LIFE

Foodscaping: A new way to create a gardenWith manicured

lawns and perfectly trimmed shrubs,

the landscaping surrounding North American homes and buildings was, until recently, mostly considered decorative. Turf grass serves little to no purpose other than to consume water. However, a new way of designing gardens, particularly appreciated by millennials, has just made its appearance: food-scaping.

The principle of foodscaping is simple because it involves designing gardens in which edible plants are grown. By making your own edible land-scaping, you will be able to cre-ate a functional and ecological living environment that will allow you to produce organic, fresh, tasty and inexpensive food.

Nut trees, fruit trees and shrubs, perennial vegetables, herbs, edible flowers and medicinal plants; any of these has its place in edible land-scaping. They have the ability to produce vegetables and fruits in abundance, year after year, with little maintenance. As it is the case for permac-ulture, edible landscaping is

also a sustainable ecosystem that respects living creatures in which interventions are minimal.

Vegetables are considered by a majority of people to be quite unattractive, so they are often grown in a corner of the land far from the house. On the other hand, since it consists of plants that are just as beautiful as they are edible, foodscaping can be achieved almost any-where: On the front land of a residence, on a patio, or even on a roof.

Numerous edible plants, such as Swiss chard, strawber-ries, kale, scarlet runner beans and peppers, for example, are just as decorative as most annual and perennial flowers. Furthermore, to make your foodscaping as aesthetic and colorful as possible, you can include edible flowers, such as carnations and pansies with most vegetables.

If you have a mature garden,

an easy way to incorporate edible plants is to replace anything that dies or needs replanting or transplanting with something edible instead. 

What materials should be used for the creation of foodscaping? Apart from the fact that it is better to choose materials that are in harmony with those of the house, there is no established rule. Some will prefer modern materials such as cut stone and stainless steel, while others will want old farmhouse materials such as rusty steel, barn wood and straw bales. The recovery of used materials for the creation of edible landscaping is par-ticularly popular among mil-lennials.

If you want to be successful at creating edible landscaping at home, make sure you plant fruit trees. In addition to maxi-mizing the use of space, these plants form the backbone of a garden since they are, in a way, pivots around which the lower edible plants are then placed.

I suggest you plant small hardier fruit trees which pro-duce little shade and require little maintenance, such as serviceberry or Asian pear. A

dwarf peach or apple might be an ok place to start if you want a little more commitment. 

If you live in an urban environment and your land is particularly small, plant hardy kiwi, a climbing fruit species with beautiful variegated foli-age producing an abundance of edible sweet berries very rich in vitamin C.

Many species of fruit shrubs can be easily incorporated into edible landscaping. Berries are certainly the most popular. In addition, dwarf varieties are small in size and are well adapted to be grown in con-tainers in urban gardens.

Some native fruit shrubs such as chokeberry, honey-berry and black elderberry are very popular among younger generations of gardeners.

Herbaceous edible plants (perennial and annual veg-etables, herbs, edible flowers and medicinal plants) can be arranged very creatively at the base of shrubs and trees. It is possible to associate edible plants the same way one cre-ates an ornamental border, according to their height, shape, texture and color.

To facilitate the mainte-

nance of edible landscaping, it is advisable to plant herbs and perennial vegetables. In addition to growing perennial plants — which should not be replanted each year — the maintenance of edible land-scaping can be reduced by planting veggies in a manner so their foliage is touching. It is also possible to cover the ground with organic mulch or to plant ground covers that densely cover the soil while producing edible crops such as alpine strawberries and lingonberries. Finally, rather than placing plants in clumps or rows, opt for a more natural planting method based on a great diversity of plants.

Start small. Are you a smoothie lover? It’s easy to cre-ate a small garden including some of your favorite plants to make delicious smoothies. Just plant them in containers on the patio near your kitchen. Kale, strawberries, honeyber-ries and spinach are among the easiest plants to grow in pots and will do wonders in your smoothies. Love salsa? Plant all the necessary items such as tomatoes, cilantro, onion and peppers just outside your front

door. Pasta is what you crave? Plant things that work well in a good homemade sauce. 

Since more than 75% of North Americans live in urban settings, many of them do not have a lot of space to create a garden. They must grow edible plants in pots on balconies, patios, roofs or even on walls. Several small edible plant varieties have been developed in recent years to be grown in containers. Some plants even survive harsh winters in Utah if they are grown in textile pots promoting excellent drainage and some insulation.

‘Fayetteville Junior High’How fascinated a young

person can be with the secret lives of his or her teach-ers. I left junior high—middle school today—more than sixty years ago but still I occasion-ally wonder about the private lives of my algebra teacher, my science teacher, my English teachers, whose deep and abid-ing privacy I would have done anything to break through. Here’s a poem by Fleda Brown from her University of Nebraska Press selected poems, The Woods Are On Fire.

Fayetteville Junior High

What happened was, when we weren’t lookingMr. Selby married Miss Lewis.We tried to think of it, tiptoed Mr. Selby,twirling the edges of blackboard numberslike the sweet-pea tendrils of his hair,all his calculations secretlyyearning away from algebra, towardMiss Lewis, legs like stone pillarsin the slick cave of the locker room,checking off the showered, the breasted,flat-chested. All this, another worldwe never dreamed of inside the bells,the changing of classes:Selby and Lewis, emergingfrom rooms 4 and 16, holding handslike prisoners seeing the sky after all those years.“Bertha,” he says. “Travis,” she says.The drawbridge of the hypotenuse opens,the free throw line skates forward,the old chain of being transcendedin one good leap, worn floor creakingstrange as angels. In homeroom, the smell ofhumans, rank, sprouting, yet this hope for us all.

How you can help protect wild birds in your yard

(StatePoint) You may not think about it often, but wild birds use your lawn as a rest stop and place to call home. As you spruce up your lawn and garden for the season, there are simple steps you can take to pro-tect them and help them thrive.

According to Spencer Schock, founder of WindowAlert, mak-ers of bird-friendly products for homes, the following changes are easy to implement in order to create a safe harbor for wild birds:

• Plant native species: Planting native species on your property is one of the most impactful ways you can improve your local environment, as well as make your lawn and garden a healthy habitat for wild birds and other fauna. Native plant species provide birds with food and places to rest and nest. Birds in turn, spread pollen and seeds, while acting as a natural pesticide. Speaking of which, gardening organically will also go a long way to protecting the health and safety of feeding birds.

• Make windows visible: Up to 1 billion birds die annually from striking windows in US,

according to the American Bird Conservancy. The good news is that it’s relatively easy and affordable to prevent your home from being part of the problem. Special window decals that reflect ultraviolet sunlight, a wavelength of light noticeable to birds, have been proven to substantially reduce the likeli-hood of bird strikes. Giving the appearance of slightly frosted translucent glass but glowing like a stoplight for birds, those from WindowAlert feature a range of decorative patterns. To boost protection for birds, you can also apply a high-tech liquid called WindowAlert UV Liquid in between decals. More information, as well as useful application tips, can be found by visiting windowalert.com.

• Monitor cats: Monitor your cat’s time outdoors to ensure they are not terrorizing or hunt-ing birds. An enclosed play area for your cat is the most effective way to keep birds in your yard safe from your furry compan-ion’s natural instincts.

Good deeds start at home. This season, do your part to help migrating bird populations reach their destinations safely.
