Commonwealth’s Attorney Candidate Has Liens, Reprimands
By Linda Cicoira
Carl H. Bundick, an Accomac lawyer who is running for Commonwealth
Attorney, owes more than $100,000 in
taxes, according to liens filed in Accomack Circuit Court by the Internal
Revenue Service (IRS).
He has also been reprimanded three
times by the Virginia State Bar.
An IRS representative could not
elaborate on a payment plan or if the
liens had been satisfied saying such
things are not public information.
“An IRS lien is a tax bill, which I am
paying,” Bundick said Wednesday. “It
would have no impact on the work that
I do. It’s a debt that I owe … much like
a car payment or a house payment.
Some liens have been paid and I continue to pay them.”
The reprimands have already been
reported in the Eastern Shore Post,
Bundick continued. “I am the same person that I was before. I do not believe
that it impacts my character and I will
practice as hard
as I will ever
practice … I’ve
been doing this
for 25 years.”
Bundick did
not announce
his
intention
to seek office
when the Eastern Shore Post
Bundick
offered him the
opportunity. He said he was not ready,
although he had qualified, because he
said he had to get financial matters in
order.
Court documents show a lien for
Shore Advocacy Group LLC and
Bundick for $10,258. That was list-
ed in the 941 category or Employer’s
Quarterly Federal Tax Return and was
dated in two instances in March 2015.
The records also have a tax lien for
Bundick for $1,652 from Jan. 14, 2013
for tax code 6672, which “mandates an
3 Dead in ­Pocomoke ­Murder-Suicide
By Linda Cicoira
Three people died Monday in
what the Maryland State Police are
calling a “double murder-suicide” at
a Groton Road home near Pocomoke.
The bodies of Marvin Wilmer
Purnell, 78, Karen E. Purnell, 53,
and Marvin Desmond Purnell, 46,
were found just after 10:30 a.m. by
Worcester County deputies who answered a call there, according to
Sgt. DaVaughn Parker.
A friend of the dead woman had
Su p erv isors Ap p rov e $75 Per Hou r Con tract for Nu n ez
By Linda Cicoira
Katie Nunez is no longer Northampton County’s administrator, but she
still has her hands in the finances.
A week after she was resigned from
her job in a restructuring move last
month, it was found she was still needed. So, on Aug. 29, Nunez signed a contract to provide consulting services to
help the finance director “close out” the
county’s fiscal 2016 books.
No, they didn’t trade positions. Not
exactly. Finance Director John Andrzejewski is called the interim or acting
county administrator. It was initially
announced that he would do both jobs
until a permanent administrator was
found.
Nunez’s resignation was mutually
agreed upon so a more “effective and
efficient”
government
could
be had. She got
a $100,000 severance package.
And now she is
back for up to 100
hours
through
June 30, 2017, at
$75 an hour.

The contract
between Nunez and the board of supervisors was signed by Andrzejewski. The
supervisors formally accepted her resignation on Aug. 22. Chairman Spencer
Murray said the decision to restructure

taxes and social security taxes from
employees’ wages.”
Another lien was for $52,182.45
and was also for code 6672. The tax
(Continued on Page 5)
was made on the previous Friday.
When reached for comment about
the contract with Nunez, Murray said
the agreement wasn’t a contract despite that the first words on the document clearly state in capital letters,
“THIS CONTRACT.”
Murray also said Nunez will be employed “on an hourly basis specifically
to close and prepare for the audit. … No
invoices have been rendered.”
Why was Nunez sought for the task?
“Because she was running things,”
said Murray. “She did the most part of
the budget. She has prepared for the
audit in the past. We gave him (Andrzejewski) the permission to do it. … It
was not a secret.” he said.
been unable to contact her and after going to the house reported a
“strong disturbing odor coming from
the residence.”
The relationship between the
three people was not disclosed. All
three were said to live at the 2200
block of Groton Road.
Marvin Desmond Purnell was
identified as the suspect in the
shooting of the other two. “Investigators anticipate the autopsy will
verify the cause and manner of
death,” Parker said. The chief medical examiner in Baltimore is in
charge of that.
Deputies found the home “to be
secure from the outside with no
signs of forced entry,” Parker said.

Northampton Teachers Leave Because of Lack of Pay,
Housing, and Social Connections, Says School Board Survey
By Ron West
While a starting salary of $35,000
a year may sound enticing to a newly minted teacher, the cost of living on
the Eastern Shore, the shortage of affordable housing, student loans and
skyrocketing medical insurance costs
can soon whittle away at a monthly
paycheck.
Those facts were among the results
of a teacher retention survey received
by the Northampton School Board
last week. Board member Nancy Proto and Director of Administrative Services Melinda Phillips presented the
results and gave recommendations to
help keep new teachers from leaving
the division after a year or two.
The top reason they go, regardless of their length of employment in
Northampton, is money or more precisely, a lack of it.
Newer and/or younger teachers al-
so find the lack of social connections
limiting.
And some are dismayed that their
workday does not end when it is over
for most professionals. Teacher find
themselves spending more and more
time on school related things such as
grading an endless amount of papers,
contacting parents about students or
preparing lesson plans.
Vice Chairman Randy Parks, a retired Northampton High School teacher, stressed how difficult it is for
teachers to survive today. Proto said
the system needs to focus on increasing teacher pay and improving consistency in discipline in the schools, administrative management styles and
community relations.
A key could be helping newcomers
learn about local opportunities and
adapting to the lifestyle.
The board reviewed a spring compe-

tition field trip request from Band Director Kevin Schwenk for high school
and middle school bands. The trip to
Williamsburg would cost about $200
per student. One to New York is estimated at $750 each.
Superintendent Eddie Lawrence expressed concern over the high cost of
the trips and time away from school.
He noted the value of such an outing and how having to raise the funds
would be a challenge for families living
in the economically depressed area.

Member JoAnn Molera stressed the
need for students to be involved in the
financial process for a total learning
experience. In the end, the board voted to table the request until their next
session.
Lawrence reported that an increase in enrollment could result in
the need to hire additional staff to
maintain acceptable class sizes. The
board agreed to support his request
to investigate advertising for additional teachers.

held in Accomack Jail without bond,
according to records filed in Accomack General District Court. Eastville attorney Paul Watson was appointed Monday to defend him.
Robins was charged with first-degree murder of Fardale (also known
as Fairdale) Antonio Johnson, 39, of
Mappsville. Police had been looking
for Robins ever since. He was also accused of using a firearm in the murder
and shooting from a vehicle, both felonies. The incidents occurred at nearly 10 p.m. on Lankford Highway in
Mappsville on June 24.
Sheriff Todd Godwin reported
that his office was alerted to gunshots being fired between the occupants of two vehicles. A few minutes
later, a second caller called authorities and said a gunshot victim was
on Nathaniel Street in that town.
Deputies, troopers and rescuers arrived to find Johnson with gunshot
wounds. He was pronounced dead at
the scene.
In September 2010, Johnson was
convicted of distribution of cocaine
and given 20 years with 15 suspended. Three years of probation was set
to begin upon release. He was out of
prison less than 24 hours when he
was killed.
Sgt. Anthony Bright of the Accomack County Sheriff ’s Office investigated the murder case.

Northam Gives Boost To United Way at Kick-off Breakfast
Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam, who aspires
to be the second Eastern Shore native
elected Governor of Virginia, served as
the keynote speaker for United Way
of Virginia’s Eastern Shore campaign
breakfast last week.
“I don’t think there’s anything more
important or rewarding than giving
back and the United Way is a good
place to start.” Northam told those in
attendance.
Sen Lynwood Lewis introduced
Northam and noted the last governor
from the Shore was Henry A. Wise,
who was elected in 1855. “It has been
a long time coming,” he said.
Northam supports workforce development, creating jobs in arts and math
and good-paying jobs for high school
graduates.
Standards of Learning (SOLs) tests
need revisions, Northam said. He explained that students need to “think
creatively” and not be taught to take
multiple choice exams. Northam further said all families need access to
pre-K education because when some
families can afford to send their children “the gap between students begins” and society eventually pays for
that disparity.
Danny Vestal, president of the local
United Way chapter, said reaching this
year’s goal of $275,000 will help fund
150 non-profit organizations that provide services to Eastern Shore residents. He recognized the all-volunteer
board of directors and allocations committee including Fund Raising Chairman Matt Parker.
Parker in turn recognized the coordinators who conduct employee
campaigns. “The coordinators are the

Matson: Zika Not Yet Detected on Eastern Shore, But Be Vigilant
By Ron West
A container as small as a bottle
cap can hold enough water for mosquitoes to breed — including the Zika virus-transmitting varieties.
Vigilance is needed in watching out for those outdoor containers and in using insect repellent
— top precautions against Zika, Dr.
David Matson, director of the Eastern Shore Health District, advised
Northampton supervisors Tuesday
night.
Matson said of the mosquitoes
known to transmit the virus, at least
two are indigenous to the Eastern
Shore. But no cases of the Zika have
been attributed to them locally.
Of the 80 people in Virginia currently known to have the virus, they
contracted it when traveling outside of the region or through someone who was out of the area. The virus can also be transmitted through
sexual contact. Additional informa-
tion on the Zika and precautions
regarding it can be found at http://
www.vdh.virginia.gov/epidemiology/
zika-virus-update
Finance Director John Andrzejewski, who is also the acting county administrator, said Sheriff David
Doughty developed a policy regarding outside groups, including towns
hiring off-duty deputies. The policy
contains fees for the deputies and
for the use of county vehicles, such
as patrol cars. In the past, Cheriton and Nassawadox used off-duty
deputies to assist with policing and
traffic control. Cape Charles, Exmore and Eastville have police forces and do not need to rely strictly on
county officers.
The board approved a request by
Ballard Fish Company to withdraw
83 acres from an Agricultural & Forestal District after holding a public
hearing on the issue. The company
intends to sell the Willis Wharf tract
and reimburse the county for the tax
benefit of $16,000 that it received
through the district.
Chairman Spencer Murray noted the owner has the right to remove it regardless of the intended
use. The property will still be zoned
agricultural.
The supervisors also reviewed
several amendments they had initiated, in an effort to improve or
streamline the 2016 Zoning Ordinance. It was agreed to delete a request to remove fertilizer blending
from acceptable uses in the county.
The supervisors agreed that if the
change were approved by the board,
it could have a negative impact on
area farmers. The board decided to spend more
time considering a request to change
the designation for flexible-term rentals and asked staff to do more research. During public comments, Martina Coker and Roberta Kellam re-
quested additional funding from the
county to support the annual Birding Festival. They wanted to expand
the festival from its current weekend time frame to more than a week.
The women said the change could
increase tourism. Supervisor Larry
LeMond said that the county is providing a $5,000 grant to support the
festival this year, which is $2,000
more than last year’s event support. Janice Williams, the assistant
to the county administrator, mentioned the issue of mold in the courthouse. It was agreed that it required
immediate remediation. A quote of
$11,000 was approved for the task.
The board also approved a resolution that asks the Coast Guard
to conduct an impact study regarding the proposed ship anchorage area west of the Cape Charles. Concerns about possible pollution by
the vessels were raised at a previous meeting.

Yet another document, listed 1040
for a lien of $36,842.93 for Bundick.
This could vary from involving the
transfer or valuation of certain farm
or real estate to an estate tax.
In October 2009, “after due consideration of the evidence and the
nature of the ethical misconduct …
the three-judge court agreed” to reprimand Bundick and order him to

eight hours of civil litigation, endure

be inside, they heard a “male” voice.
After retrieving a key, the deputies entered and “found two decomposing bodies … on the kitchen floor
and a third body in the hallway opposite the kitchen,” Parker continued.
They then left as a safety precaution
and for about an hour attempted to
make contact with whoever might be
alive inside. Gas deployed through
a window in an effort to force out
any occupant resulted in a fire. The
blaze was extinguished by Pocomoke
firefighters.
When officers and firefighters later entered the structure, they found
the suspect’s body had a rifle beneath
it. An examination of him revealed
“what appeared to be a single gunshot wound,” according to Parker.
The investigation is continuing.

were related to a divorce case that
Bundick handled.
In 2011, Bundick was reprimanded
by the state bar for misconduct in violation of rules of diligence and communication in regard to handling guardianship of an estate.
In May 2015, the bar issued a reprimand with terms to Carl Herman
Bundick for violating professional

Former Animal Control Officer Reaches Plea Deal on Criminal Charges
By Linda Cicoira
An Accomack animal control worker who lost his job over an incident
involving his state trooper girlfriend
in early August was not prosecuted
on felony counts of malicious wounding and abduction last Friday in Accomack Juvenile and Domestic Relations
Court.
In a bargaining agreement, Billy
Davis III, 26, of Lilliston Avenue in Accomac, pleaded no contest to assault
and battery of a household member,
Chelsie Lynn Smith, in exchange for
the other charges being dropped.
Judge Croxton Gordon accepted
the arrangement made between Davis and Virginia Beach prosecutor Colin Stolle, who was appointed to handle
the matter.
Gordon withheld judgment for two
years on the conditions that Davis be
on probation during that time, take an
anger management course at his own
expense and within a reasonable time,
remain drug and alcohol free, attend
substance abuse classes and pay court
costs before Oct. 7.
Davis was prohibited from having any contact with Smith and had
to promise that he would not press
charges against her for anything that
occurred before Aug. 7. What those
charges might be were not discussed
publicly.
According to a summary relayed
to the court by Stolle, Smith was detained from leaving the couple’s home
for a short time on Aug. 1. When she
was able to leave, she was pushed from
behind and fell, striking her head.
Smith did not attend the proceeding.
“I have spoken to the victim at
length and she has agreed to this,” the
prosecutor said.
“I hope this has ended well,” Gordon
replied.
Court records show Trooper Cameron Richardson was called to the
scene. He wrote in the file, Smith was
“removed from the scene” where Davis “had barricaded himself on the top
floor. After a while, Davis …came out
of the address” and was “placed under arrest.” Davis “admitted to pushing her (Smith) down and busting …
Smith’s chin.”
According to Richardson’s notes,
Smith got off work at 2 p.m. and knew
Davis did not get off until 4 p.m. that
day. “She decided to move her stuff
out,” Richardson wrote. In the process,
Davis came home and although he did
not want her to go, he decided to help
her.
“An argument broke out. Ms. Smith
wanted to leave and call her father,”
Richardson continued. “Mr. Davis …
grabbed her and pinned her to the wall
and tried to grab her phone and keys,
which were in her bra. She fought …
she stated she wanted to leave” but
Davis “kept stepping in her way and
blocking her from leaving.”
At some point, Davis “calmed down
and started to move her stuff out to
her new address. They came back to
move more stuff. They started argu-

ing again. She grabbed some stuff
from the second floor as she went to go
down the stairs. … Davis then walked
up the stairs and kicked her almost
down 10 stairs (and) made the statement he was going to kill himself.”
“Davis grabbed her,” the trooper continued. “Smith swung elbows
and struck Mr. Davis in the left eye.
She decided to leave and get her car.
Mr. Davis then pushed her into the
car. Ms. Smith’s chin struck the vehicle and knocked her out,” the record stated.
Eventually, “she got in her car and
called her Dad to tell him what was
going on … Davis pushed the vehicle
window down and tried to stop her
from recording” a message. Smith told
the other officer, Davis “wouldn’t let
her leave and told her he ‘would get
her.’”
Sheriff Todd Godwin said his employees work at his will and that he
had to let Davis go because of the
incident.

NASA Aircraft to Measure Mid-Atlantic Greenhouse Gases
Submitted Article
NASA is conducting low-level aircraft flights measuring greenhouse
gases over the mid-Atlantic region
through September.
The flights are for the CARbon Airborne Flux Experiment or CARAFE,
which will measure the exchange
of greenhouse gases such as carbon
dioxide and methane between the
Earth and the atmosphere in the region. In addition, water vapor, temperature, and vertical wind measurements will be taken.
Randy Kawa, experiment principal
investigator from NASA’s Goddard
Space Flight Center in Greenbelt,
Md, said, “The direct measurements
of the atmospheric interchange of
these greenhouse gases will allow us
to demonstrate the capability of the
new instrument system being flown.”
“It also will allow us to better understand the exchange processes in
this area and compare and apply the
data to existing atmospheric and ecosystem models,” he said.
The NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., and the NASA
Ames Research Center in Moffett
Field, Ca., also are supporting the
mission.
During the flights, a NASA C-23
Sherpa aircraft from the Wallops
Flight Facility will fly trajectories at
various altitudes with the lowest being 500 feet above the vegetation or
water.
The flights will be conducted over
the Pocomoke Forest area on the
Eastern Shore of Maryland; agricultural areas and tidal marshlands
from the Eastern Shore of Virginia to southern Delaware; southern
Maryland; the Chesapeake Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean; the New Jersey
Pine Barrens in the southern portion
of the state; and the Alligator River
and the Great Dismal Swamp in eastern North Carolina and southeastern
Virginia.

Court Postings
By Linda Cicoira

Justin David Fleck, 30, of Keener
Avenue in Red Lion, Pa. was indicted on a count of possession of cocaine
on March 6, 2016. Officer M. T. Boggs
of the Chesapeake Bay-Bridge Tunnel Police Department (CBBTPD)

CBBTPD handled the cases.
James Elliott Murphy, 25, of

record, Martin “began throwing up

Capeville Man Indicted in Murder, Attempted Murder
A 22-year-old Capeville man, who
is accused of shooting his first-cousin to death, was indicted Monday by a
Northampton Grand Jury on a count of
second-degree murder.
The jury also formally charged Alexander H. Picott-Cleveland with attempting to kill his father on the night of June
18. The incidents occurred at 29192 Arlington Road in the Cheapside area in
front of the house where the father and
son lived. A count of using a firearm in
the murder was also handed down.
A short time earlier, the defendant
allegedly opened fire at a party in Exmore. Picott-Cleveland is charged with
maliciously wounding Mona Jones,
Ranquise Coston and Andre Johnson,
and use of a firearm in those crimes.
Misdemeanor counts of brandishing a
gun and recklessly handing it were included in the indictments.
Lt. Michelle Hallett of the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office gave information to the jury about the murder
and related charges. Sgt. Jason Campbell of the Exmore Police Department
testified before the jury regarding the
other charges.
The defendant is continuing to be
held in the Eastern Shore Regional Jail
in Eastville without bond.
Two vials of his blood were taken
just after Picott-Cleveland was arrest-
ed about 12 hours after the incidents
were alleged to have occurred. A State
Department of Forensic Science report
showed no ethanol, methanol, cocaine
or benzoylecgonine, opiates, methamphetamines or MDMA, Phencyclidine,
barbiturates, benzodiazephines, carisoprodol or meprobamate, fentanyl, methadone, zolpidem or alkali-extractable
drugs were detected.
According to testimony at a preliminary hearing last month, the defendant told police he went out to a shed
to get his 12-gauge shotgun during an
argument and tussle with his father,
who was not named in court documents.
Ronald Graves, 30, of Portsmouth, his
cousin, got in his path and was shot instead, Hallett said.
The defendant also told the officer
that he purposely shot another man at
a graduation party. That weapon was a
.22 caliber handgun, evidence showed.
Hallett said Picott-Cleveland told her
three others were unintentionally hit
with gunfire during that incident.
Coston of Exmore testified he was
shot four times in the back and spent 2
1/2 weeks in the hospital because of his
injuries. “I was doing a lot of ducking, trying to get away … I got shot four times …
I don’t even know who shot me.”
Hallett said the defendant told her,
“They (Coston and others) were going
to do something to me. I wasn’t going to
let that happen … I was trying to shoot
him … I unloaded my whole clip.”
Mona Jones of Trehernville, went
to the Exmore party with Graves, who
was her Godson, and the defendant. She
was shot twice in the neck. “Everybody
was talking to different people and everything,” Jones testified. “Next thing I
know, somebody hollered out somebody
had a gun. … I don’t think he meant to
hit me. The gun went off.”
Jones said she didn’t realize how
badly she was injured. Once they got to
Cheapside, she went in to wipe off her
wound and “heard some loud talking.”
When she went back to the vehicle,
Graves got out to talk to the defendant.
“I was sitting in the truck wiping
blood,” she said. “Everything was behind me. I didn’t see anything.” When
she got out, Graves was lying in the
middle of the road. “I can’t even explain
how I felt and his eyes were rolling back
in his head.”
Andre Johnson of Jamesville said he
was a passenger in a car that pulled up
to the party area. He was struck in the
face. “We didn’t have a chance to get out
of the car … The bullet came through
the windshield.”
The incidents began at about 7:30
p.m. in Exmore. The defendant fled and
was later captured.

Town Park Building Nears Completion
By Ron West
A new multi-purpose building at
the town park is almost ready for public use, Exmore Town Manager Robert
Duer reported to the mayor and town
council Monday.
Duer provided the officials with an
application form and possible fees for
the structure. Council members agreed
to discuss the allowable uses and fees
at a work session later this month. Citizens already have expressed interest
in scheduling events there, according
to Duer and Mayor Doug Greer.
Duer also reported the Royal Farms
convenience store would close later in
the year for up to three months while it
is remodeled. That move would reduce
the town’s income through fees and
taxes until it reopens, he said.
Police Chief Angelo DiMartino said
incidents of excessive speed continue
to be recorded by his officers, especially
along the Route 13. A recent incident
included speeds in excess of 90 mph.
Accidents have also been reported on
the mile-long stretch. DiMartino and
Duer requested a VDOT speed study to
see if lowering the limit from 45 mph
would be justified.
A public hearing on the proposed
ordinance regarding inoperable vehicles is set for 6:45 p.m. on Oct. 3.
The ordinance is designed to help
eliminate the accumulation of vehicles that are not licensed and do not
work. Vehicles that are kept inside
would not be affected.

Northampton High School Falls to
Northumberland 42-13
Story and Photo by Ron West
Northampton faced off against Northumberland last week in a home
game, but the home field did not prove
to be an advantage as Northumberland rolled to a 42-13 win.
Five minutes into the game, Northumberland scored a touchdown to
take the lead by 6-0. Then, minutes
later, Northampton returned the
kickoff with Tamaze Brisco running
the length of the field for a touchdown. By the end of the first quarter,
Northumberland had racked up two
additional touchdowns to bring the
score to 20-7.
The second quarter
was not much kinder for Northampton
as Northumberland
picked up two more
touchdowns to extend their lead to 347. The fourth quarter
saw Northumberland
pick up yet another
touchdown to lengthen its lead to 42-7.
With only four minutes left in the game
Northampton picked

Local Indie Artist Releases First Album, Goes On Tour
Story and photos by Connie Morrison
hen Angelica Garcia’s stepfather Cameron Randle left the
record industry to become an
Episcopalian priest, or “rector,” as they
are known to Episcopalians, he answered an unlikely call to be a parish
priest on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. A
Kansas native, Randle was no stranger
to rural life, but in 2011 Garcia and her
mother — also named Angelica and
a former pop recording artist in the
1990s — were stepping into a world
unlike anything they had known. “It’s
pretty much the opposite of L.A. in every conceivable way,” said Garcia, who
grew up in El Monte, about 15 miles
east of Los Angeles, and graduated
from Los Angeles School for the Arts.
Perhaps it was natural that the then
17-year-old processed her new home
and surroundings through a musical
filter. Many young people bristle under
the isolation of the Eastern Shore, but
Garcia found she had time to focus on
songwriting in addition to courses at
Eastern Shore Community College. “It
was the best thing I could have done,”
she said, because it allowed her a couple of hours per day free of distractions.
As Garcia honed her craft, she sent
demos to Warner Bros. record executives and landed a recording contract
W
last year. Her first album, “Medicine
for Birds,” debuts Sept. 30, launching Garcia into the commercial music
universe. Already she has attracted
interest from the New York Times and
National Public Radio with her single
“Orange Flower,” and last week, American Songwriter featured the music
video of another single, “Little Bird.”
The album is an atmospheric extraction of Eastern Shore elements
of local history, landscape, salt air,
architecture, colloquialisms and cuisine distilled into bluesy-rock melodies with lyrics that veer from whimsical to haunting to gospel infused.
Garcia believes Eastern Shore residents will recognize the regional influences “whether it’s a literal nod in
lyrics, (or that) the music reflects the
landscape sonically.”
For example, she says “The Devil
Can Get In” is meant to sound like
someone walking through an old house.
It opens with an audio of wind blowing
— not unlike the sounds of wind whipping around the 200-year-old rectory
where Garcia was living with her parents when the song was written.
Garcia wrote most of the album’s
songs at the Back Street rectory in
Accomac and the parish house behind
it. “If they weren’t written there, they
Angelica Garcia in front of the Back Street Rectory where she composed
and refined the music for her first album, “Medicine for Birds.”
Garcia composes music on both the guitar and piano, which sits in the
living room of the rectory.
were work-shopped there,” she said.
The rectory is provided to her stepfather as pastor of the St. George’s
Episcopal parish, which includes St.
George’s Church on Bobtown Road in
Pungoteague and St. James’ Church
on Drummontown Road in Accomac.
While the setting was rich in solitude and atmosphere, it was lacking in
technical capabilities. “Here at the rectory, I had limited gear,” she said. Once
she began working with a producer,
there were “all these colors and textures I didn’t know about until I was
in a studio.”
It has expanded her thinking, she
said, for the next album. “It will be
more fun the second time around,” she
mused, and wants to experiment with
other “sonic worlds,” and have more of
a hand in production.
The coming album still seems surreal. “Creating something that feels
so permanent is strange. Before, the
songs kind of live in your head. … The
nature of the work is to change with
you. The record is a snapshot,” she
said. “The day I can hold the record
will be pretty crazy for me. Then it will
be real.”
It will get real very quickly as Garcia moves from playing Richmond-area
venues to opening several East Coast
concerts for the Violent Femmes, a self-
described American roots and indie
band with three decades of music.
Before she and her “snapshot” are
flung out into the larger musical stage
on Sept. 30, Garcia and her band are
having an album release party on
Thursday, Sept. 22, at 8 p.m. at St.
James’ Episcopal Church in Accomac.
Tickets are $20, and can be purchased at The Book Bin in Onley, Sound
Idea Records in Onancock, or the St.
James ticket office, 757-787-4892. Half
of the proceeds will go toward restoring
the rectory where much of the album
was conceived, written, and refined.
“It was important for me to do this
concert here because I feel such a connection,” Garcia said.
If you’re going:
Thursday, Sept. 22, 8 p.m.
St. James’ Episcopal Church
Drummondtown Road, Accomac
(between Front Street and Back Street)
Tickets are $20 and available at
The Book Bin in Onley, Sound Idea
Records in Onancock, and the
St. James ticket office, 757-787-4892.
Seating is limited, so advance
purchase is strongly suggested.

By Candy Farlow
From the OutPost
By Candy Farlow
Native Americans called it the
“Moon When the Plums are Scarlet”
or the “Moon When the Deer Paw the
Earth” or the “Moon When the Calves
Grow Hair”. Others have called it the
Full Corn Moon or the Barley Moon
because it coincides with the time of
harvesting these crops. Today
it is better known the
Harvest Moon
and it arrives
tonight! I call it the full moon I love most, because,
whatever its name, it is the full moon closest to the
autumn equinox - and the autumn equinox heralds
my favorite season of the year.
This year the autumn equinox will occur Sept. 22
and for our area, it should happen at 2:21 p.m. That’s
when the sun will be directly in line with Earth’s celestial equator. On this day there will be 12 hours of
light and 12 hours of dark, a situation which won’t
occur again until the spring equinox – my second favorite time of year.
Anyway, the arrival of the autumnal equinox
Accept Tolls or Move
Dear Editor:
In regards to a discount for Eastern Shore residents for The Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, we
are receiving that discount with EZPass. When local residents make the trip over, we normally return
within 24 hours, giving us the EZPass discount. Although it is available to everyone, tourists are usually going across on vacation and not returning within
the 24-hour window. There is also a larger discount
for commuters who travel over for at least 15 days
a month. Yes, there are a number of people who do
work in Virginia Beach.
I suppose that I came to accept this cost more
easily after traveling on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry
about 12 years ago. At that time, I paid $32 to travel
one-way on the ferry.
For anyone who wants to continue to live on the
Eastern Shore, we are going to be subject to this
cost. The only option is to move elsewhere.
Nancy Goffigon
Town M
­ anager Says, “Thanks”
Dear Editor:
I want to personally extend a thank you to the
mayor and town council of the Town of Onancock for
hosting the Meet the Town Manager event on Sunday, Sept. 11. I also want to extend a thank you to
the town staff who assisted with this event. But I
want to especially thank you, all of the residents who
came out on a beautiful Sunday afternoon to meet
my wife and me and provide a most gracious welcome to Onancock. I look forward to working with
brings with it several wonders of nature.
We all know how the green chlorophyll
disappears from the leaves of the trees,
allowing us to see the underlying yellow and orange
colors.
Then there are the geomagnetic storms which
double in frequency making the aurora borealis or
Northern Lights more prominent up north.
Animals become more active too, some prepping
for hibernation or winter survival - like the blackcapped chickadee. That little bird brain’s hippocampus grows by 30 percent with the arrival of autumn,
likely to make it possible for the chickadee to remember the hundreds of places it hides seeds.
Other creatures experience autumn changes for
other purposes. Let’s just note the testes of the male
Siberian hamster expand up to 17 times their warm
weather size. No further comment.
As far as humans go, it seems the autumn equinox
creates an insatiable desire for all things pumpkin
spiced. Yep, it’s time to curl up with your pumpkin

Help Bring Triton to Eastern Shore
Dear Editor:
Two weeks ago the Navy released it’s Draft Environmental Assessment for the home basing and
maintenance of the MQ-4C Triton Unmanned
Aircraft System at one of three locations: Naval
Air Station Key West in Fla.; Naval Station Mayport in Fla.; and National Aeronautics and Space
Administration Wallops Flight Facility on the
Eastern Shore of Virginia.
The assessment indicates that all three locations can receive equal consideration, and invites
public commentary until Oct.1.
Now is the time to show our support.
The selected East Coast home base location
would be a permanent duty station for a $14-billion-dollar program bringing the possibility of
equipment and opportunities to our Delmarva
region. Triton is the Navy’s latest unmanned system program of record with a projected life cycle continuing over the next two decades. Our
location provides abundantly for this program
which would bring mutual benefits to the Eastern Shore.
Here’s how you can make a difference:
to pumpkin spiced printers’ ink!
Just kidding, but I made you sniff didn’t I?
The equinox also offers a unique opportunity
for those of us who are directionally challenged.
The day of the equinox is a chance to find due
east and due west from your yard or wherever
you might be. Just go outside around sunrise or
sunset. Check the location of the sun on the horizon in relation to familiar landmarks. You will
then be able to use those landmarks for those directions even after the sunrises and sunsets move
with the Earth’s orbit.
I might try this. I’ve had real directional problems
ever since high school when I learned that the Eastern Shore does not lie true north to south. Kinda just
throws everything off. At least I have learned how
to get home from points across the Bay. My sister
taught me to just drive to the highest building I see
and then I can get on the right roads. Hope no one
ever out builds the Hoffler Tower. I’d then have to
go back to my old way of driving all the way to the
oceanfront and getting on Shore Drive. Kind of out of
the way, but I knew where I was.
Anyway, I know where I’ll be tonight.
I’ll be out on my deck, admiring the Harvest Moon
as I enjoy my pumpkin spiced frappuccino.
I urge you to submit your comments or a letter
of support before the deadline on Oct. 1. Below
you’ll find the link to the public comments page.
Thank you in advance for your participation,
and here’s to our region’s future!
