Al-Anon at a Glance
Al-Anon is a mutual support group
of peers who share their experience
in applying the Al-Anon principles
to problems related to the effects of
a problem drinker in their lives. It is
not group therapy and is not led by
a counselor or therapist; this support
network complements and supports
professional treatment. Alateen is a
peer support group for teens who are
struggling with the effects of someone
else’s problem drinking. Many Alateen
groups meet at the same time and location as Al-Anon groups. Alateen meetings are open only to teenagers. No
advance notification or written referral
is necessary to attend an Al-Anon or
Alateen meeting. Anyone affected by
someone else’s drinking is welcome
to attend. There are no dues or fees.
Groups are self-supporting, and usually pass a basket around for a voluntary
contribution to pay for rent or Al-Anon
literature.
Professionals, encourage your
clients to try Al-Anon, even if they
minimize the problem with alcohol.
The 2012 Al-Anon membership survey
shows that 88% of newcomers who
first came to Al-Anon because of a
loved one’s drug addiction later came
to better understand the seriousness
of that person’s alcohol problem only
after attending Al-Anon for a period of
time. For information on local meeting
times, days, and contacts, please telephone toll free 1-888-425-2666 and

Frank running on a full tank….
I hope everyone reads our cover
story on Frank Moore. I’ve known
Frank since our high school days.
I’ve always had the greatest amount
of respect for Frank and the challenges that he has had to face his
jeff @yvsource.com
entire life.
When I have a challenging day
or I get overly frustrated with my day to day hurdles, I take a moment and I think about Frank and his day to
day battles with NF - Neurofibromatosis, after that I realize that I really don’t have it so bad. He truly has to
be the toughest person I know. There has been several days that he has gone to work when his amputated leg
was giving him major problems & extreme pain. However he wouldn’t call in sick because he knew that would
leave his crew at work short staffed. I wish there were more people in the world like Frank.
Living with NF has to be extremely psychologically challenging. Can you imagine being stared at everyday
of your life, because you have tumors growing throughout your body? Somehow, Frank perseveres through
everyday, looking at the positives instead of the negatives. He might not know it, but he has taught me alot
about staying strong and overcoming the obstacles that we all face at times. I’ve very fortunate to know Frank
and I hope our readers will take the time to read more about Frank & NF on page 7.
When you’re having one of those days where you just want to throw your hands up and scream—you’ll think
of Frank’s journey and you’ll find it will help you get through that frustrating patch in your life. Then you’ll
have
Frank to thank, as I have for over 30 years. Keep on rock-in Frank!

Many have asked us
how we got involved
with the St. Baldrick’s
Foundation Head
Shaving Events.
Our son, Neal, was 26 and loving
his life working for an internet
hosting company in Denver’s Tech
Center. He loved his apartment,
his new car, his friends, and his
Neal Carmine
promising role in the up and coming
tech business. Computers and video
games had been his greatest love
from the time he first put his hands
on a computer as a young child. He
was a natural, and much respected
and successful in the business. But,
he had developed aching in his neck
and upper back that no one seemed
to be able to determine the cause of.
After a year of pain and
uncertainty, he and we were shocked
when he was diagnosed with
Ewing’s Sarcoma, a cancer primarily
occurring in children from infancy
on. It occurs on a less widespread
basis in young adults. Neal was,
unfortunately, in that unlucky group.
His initial diagnosis was Stage 4.
Cancerous tumors were found in
multiple locations in his body.
The resources needed for
Ewing’s treatment are concentrated
in children’s treatment facilities.
Children’s Hospital in Denver came
to be Neal’s, and our, second home.
Neal, a large young man when he
fell ill, was an imposing physical
presence there; a gentle giant among
the sometimes tiny patients. He
came to be like a big brother to so
many sick children as they shared
the pain and indignity of cancer
treatment. He relished the role as
a comfort to so many as they spent
time together in the infusion suite
receiving their chemo. In the days
and weeks afterward, they battled
the unpleasant side effects together
and waited for the harsh treatments

to take effect – or not. There were
good days and bad days, for sure,
during the 11 months he was actively
involved in treatment.
We learned about children’s
cancers from the kids and other
young adults and their families at
Children’s and from the incredibly
caring staff there. We heard about
the annual St. Baldrick’s head
shaving event in Denver that
honored families of children and
young adults lost and supported
kids still fighting. Participants raised
money by signing up to shave their
heads in solidarity with those who
lost their hair in treatment. They
asked friends and family to donate
“on their heads” with all funds raised
going to support research.
Neal, eight months into his
treatment, decided he wanted to
be a part of the event. By then, he
was bald from his own chemo and
required the assistance of a cane to
walk. We’d never heard of the event
or the Foundation as we were new
to all this, only having launched our
fight with the disease a few months
before. We went to Fado’s Irish Pub
in LoDo Denver with him for the big
day. Many staff from the hospital
attended and some participated as
shavees. In fact, one of Neal’s docs
had scheduled to be a “shavee”.
Neal couldn’t resist – he asked if he
could shave Dr. Geller’s head. Geller
agreed and Neal took the clippers
with a mischievous gleam in his
eye. It was a great day and we were
hooked on St. B’s!
Despite all that his medical team
tried to do for him, Neal steadily
deteriorated, month after month.
He had lost his hair to chemo
and continued to lose weight and
strength. The pain related to his
tumors was unbearable and there
were many complications and side
effects of the treatments he received.
A couple of months later, we had
stunning news from the doctors.
They told us, “there’s nothing more
we can do for your son” - because
the research funding wasn’t there
and thus the potentially lifesaving
research needed to save him had not
been done. We were devastated.
Treatment designed to battle
childhood cancers is scary and
brutal, but the treatment plan is built
on hope, courage, and compassion.
The clock is ticking up until you
hear that statement. At that instant,
the clock begins ticking relentlessly
down. The words stunned like the
crack of a rifle on unprotected ears.
All efforts to make him more
comfortable failed. Eventually,
hospice care was required. Then,
just short of his 27th birthday, Neal
had to be hospitalized. He never
left Children’s that time. We had so
hoped for a cure, but it was not to be.
We continued to participate in
the Denver Fado’s St. Baldrick’s
events, building a fundraising team
of shavees in his memory – Neal’s
mother, sister, brother, and I shaved
our heads year after year to honor
him. Eventually, we settled into a
new home near Grand Junction.
Our family decided to bring St.
Baldrick’s to the Western Slope. In
2012, with the help of friends from
Neal’s cancer journey and from the
Denver event and new friends from
our adopted home community, we
founded the St. Baldrick’s Grand
Junction Head Shaving Event.

There’s No
Place Like Home….
For the past three years, I have been
working two operations of ours, the
one here and one that we had started in Virginia. What that meant was
that I spent a lot of time driving back
and forth and spending 2, 3, 4 and
sometimes more weeks out east. Last
October, after we finished one of the
biggest wine festivals that we had ever
done, I realized that I just did not want
to be on the road that much anymore.
I had found this place, the Grand
Valley, back in 2002 and that is where
I wanted to be, not on the road, not
out east, but here in the Grand Valley.
Yeah, here we do not have a couple of million people within 100
miles; yes, we do not have a lot of
the so-called ‘perks’ that come with
being in a major metro region, but even
without those perks, this is where I
belong! The Grand Valley was where
I landed after some very tumultuous
years in my life; The Grand Valley is
where I realized that cooking was what
I wanted to do, and the Grand Valley is
where I launched Decadence Gourmet.
I had missed out on a lot of the
springs, summers and falls out here,
and I missed them. I missed seeing all
the snow melt and the fields sprouting their bounties. I missed seeing the
Wings over Palisade
BBQ Chicken Wings w/ Chipotle Peach Sauce
1 cup chopped Palisade Peaches
½ c Key Lime Juice
2 Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce, chopped
1 TBS Adobo Sauce (from can of chilies)
1 tsp salt
1 TBS Minced Garlic
2 TBS Ketchup
1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
1 TBS Minced Ginger
¼ cup Brown Sugar
½ cup Dark Molasses
2 TBS Red Wine Vinegar
4 lbs Chicken Wings (about 25)
Prepare grill at medium heat. Combine all ingredients except wings in
a food processor and puree. Simmer in Sauce Pan until reduced by
1/3.
Pat Chicken Wings dry and place in large mixing bowl. Pour ½ of BBQ
sauce over wings and toss until wings are well coated. Place wings
on grill and cook until done, about 15-20 minutes, turning every 5
minutes, brushing with more of the sauce.
birds waiting, sometimes impatiently, for my filling their bird feeders; I
missed not having to be stuck in a rainsoaked freeway. I missed living in the
Grand Valley full-time. So, while we
are still working out some solutions to
keep our products out east, I am back
here full-time!
Yeah, we might not have the mega
festivals out here, where we will
sell 500–1,000 jars, but we do have
an abundant amount—the Palisade
Peach Festival, the Colorado Mountain
Winefest, the Palisade Bluegrass
Festival, the Fruita Fall Festival…
and the list goes on…. We also have
some great Farmers Markets and other
events across this valley.
So, for reasons that not all can
understand… “Hi, Honey. I’m home!”
As we enter the fair, festival and
market season, I recall one of my earliest local festivals, where I did a cooking demo at the Peach Cuisine with
Colorado Chefs at the 2009 Palisade
Peach Festival (I still could not believe
that they invited me!) and I did a dish
I called “Wings over Palisade,” which
are BBQ Chicken Wings w/ Chipotle
Peach Sauce. And that’s this month’s
recipe. So, get out your grill!

The Suburbanites take a Joyride
Eons ago, when I was a young teen,
my father owned a disgusting 1949
Suburban. Even in the Sixties, when he
bought it, there weren’t many around
anymore. The Suburban was a rustriddled orphan on pigeon-toed wheels
that Dad adopted from newspaper
want ads. Its tiny headlights stared
out with a pitiful look of cross-eyed
surprise. None of its windows rolled
down, except the window on the front
passenger side, which didn’t roll up.
Its body was pitted; it had endured so
many amateur paint jobs it no longer
had a “finish”—it had a skin. “Forest
green,” Dad declared.
“Looks like algae,” my younger
brother Warren quipped. He was the hit
of seventh-grade science class when
he successfully cultured Suburban
scrapings.
And that was as close to culture as
the Suburban ever got. Dad didn’t care.
He wanted the “Sub,” as he’d dubbed
it, for fishing and camping. With a
wife, four kids, a big, friendly dog
and a small, flatulent dog, he needed
something the Sub’s size (just slightly
daintier than a bus) to get us and our
gear into the mountains.
Dad elaborated incessantly to any
audience his plans to “fix up” the
Sub, but after he’d scavenged a rear
seat from the junkyard, he determined
further improvements could wait. After
all, we lived less than two hours from
Grand Mesa—and we were “burnin’
daylight!”
Loading the Sub for that first trip
took a day, as we packed and repacked
two Army surplus tents; a cord of tent
poles; coffee cans bedding knots of
worms; extra clothes for the several
of us cursed with an inability to stay
dry near lakes; food for a bivouacked
battalion; rods and reels for trolling,
bank fishing, dry-and wet-fly casting,
and a collection of bobbers that might
have kept the Titanic afloat after it
clipped the iceberg.
Finally, we lashed the pointy
aluminum boat to the Sub’s roof,
where it perched as pertly as the hats
Bette Davis wore on Midnight Movies.
At the last minute, Dad, giddy with
adventure, invited two boy cousins—
and requisite gear—along.
“Mall swfett?” Dad trumpeted,
easing behind the steering wheel and
extricating my little sister’s elbow
from his cheek.
“Mall swfett!” we cheered. And
the Sub groaned down the drive like
a top-heavy Chinese junk setting sail
for open seas!
Those were the days of the old
Grand Mesa road, whose maze of
steep, graveled switchbacks unwound
upward like a skein of snarled yarn.
Owing largely to my mother’s whiteknuckled hand-wringing, the Sub made
it up to the first long grade out of the
town of Mesa, to the pull-out known as
Radiator Creek. It was a watering hole
for choking radiators and a pretty place
where travelers could stretch their legs
before muscles knotted permanently
on the tortuous uphill trudge ahead.
At Radiator Creek, the Sub died
in clouds of steam and blue smoke.
Steam billowed from the Sub, while
Dad’s inventive invectives accounted
for the blue smoke. When Dad and the
Sub had both cooled off, we crammed
ourselves back inside and braced for
the hairpin climb.
Several hard-won hairpins later, the
Sub threw a rod. As luck would have
it, it wasn’t a fishing rod. New blue
smoke polluted the pristine air as we
de-Subbed and regrouped. Eventually,
Mother led a reluctant party on foot
upcountry to Beaver Lake Lodge. A
couple hours later, she returned with
a game warden.
“Well,” the warden mused, massaging lean, tanned jowls, “I can tow you
home… but first you’ll have to coast
down to the paved road in Plateau
Canyon.”
Mother pounded Dad’s back as he
convulsed in a coughing fit. Later, Dad
swore the warden’s words had caused
him to swallow his tongue. What a
joker Dad was!
Caught between a rock and a hard
face (the warden’s), Dad finally agreed
to the plan. Mother and most our contingent rendezvoused with my grandparents, camped near Beaver Lake. A
cousin, my little sister and I scrambled
into the Sub. We said we’d keep Dad
company, but we smelled adventure!
Coasting down the narrow, harrowing old road in an overloaded metal
vessel as manageable as a rogue elephant seemed great fun at the time.
Having no better sense than we did,
the two dogs came along.
The downhill trip began as a freewheeling joyride, attaining more horrific aspects only after the Sub’s velocity edged past the Bonneville Salt Flats
speed record. The speedometer needle
shirred and flew off, impaling cousin
Brucie’s thigh. He barely flinched, as
he and the big dog were jockeying for

position at the open passenger window,
necks telescoped, tongues flopping
sloppily.
The brakes raised a nose-searing
stink, offset to some degree by the
flatulent little dog’s contributions
to the ambience. Dad had ground
quickly through second and first gear
to “granny”—and the only gear left
was reverse! More than once I saw
Dad consider using it, as we skittered
precipitously around curves on two
wheels. Luckily, most times the two
wheels were on the same side of the
Sub. We splashed wakes of gravel at
oncoming cars as a high-pitched squeal
rose from the Sub’s forward recesses.
Dad only quit squealing when both
dogs began to howl.
I don’t recall seeing Radiator Creek
on the way down. I may have missed
it while attempting to pry my sister’s
fingers off my throat or digging the
little dog out of the sweatshirt I was
wearing. Then, too, we may have
strafed it during one of the Sub’s
airborne periods.
Mesa, peaceful berg at the bottom of
the old road, was a blur of storefronts
and gaping citizenry as we set fire
to Main Street passing through. We
learned later that a grizzled WWI
veteran who hadn’t walked since
the Armistice had abandoned his
wheelchair and vaulted into a blue
spruce. We also heard the mayor was
rendered speechless, a phenomenon
that later prompted the town council
to issue my father a key to the city.
A ways below Mesa, we came to
the mouth of Plateau Canyon, the
warden’s specified rendezvous. Dad
eased the Sub to a bucking stop by
laying inch-thick slabs of tire for half a
mile. We coasters shambled out of the
Sub; one by one, we pressed puckered
lips to pavement and performed
several spontaneous dances riddled
with religious overtones. The dogs
staggered between boulder and bush,
raising shaky legs and falling over
sideways.
Moments later, the warden arrived. I
though he’d never quit shaking Dad’s
hand. As he chained the vehicles
together, I detected palsy in his hands
and noticed his leathery tan had
bleached to the pallor of bread dough.
The tow down Plateau Canyon
was a tame ride, compared to the last
hour of our lives (which we had all
seriously viewed as The Last Hour of
Our Lives).
By the end of summer, Dad had the
Sub running again, and it carted us on
outings many more summers before
disappearing into the mists of time (and
my going away to college). It behaved
most times, although it wasn’t above
manifesting a death-wish eccentricity
now and then just to remind us that life
is tenuous and sweet….

Frank Moore
A Man with NF & A New Movie Project
By Nora Hughes
Neurofibromatosis (NF) is a genetic
disorder that causes tumors to form
on nerve tissue, sometimes becoming cancerous. Complications from
NF can include hearing loss, learning
impairment, heart and blood vessel
problems, loss of vision and severe
pain. It is usually diagnosed during
childhood. With May being NF awareness month, Grand Junction native
(and all around Rockstar) Frank Moore
openly shares his story about life with
Neurofibromatosis.
Frank was diagnosed with NF at the
young age of 2. His father and sister
both shared this disorder (his sister
passed away at age 14). Frank mentioned that, to date, he has had between
28-30 surgeries because of this condition. He also elected to have his leg
amputated to avoid cancer—only to
survive cancer, not once, but twice
afterward.
Frank recently shared a personal video and message on his social
media, describing in great detail
what life is like for him living with
NF. He said he hopes not only to
inform people about the condition
but also to inspire others in the NF
community to “stop hiding in the
shadows and live life to the fullest.”
Deliberately shirtless, exposing
the tumors spread across his chest and
back, Frank discusses in his video that
he used to be one of “those guys,”
hiding in the shadows, ashamed and
embarrassed. He was bothered by the
stares, the weird looks, the judgment
that came because of a condition that
he could not help and many did not
understand. Then one day, Frank said,
a light came on, and Frank realized
that if he couldn’t love himself, how
was anybody else going to love him?
“I realized that the golden thing
in life was to love myself and just
embrace my condition,” Frank said.
“You have to love yourself, man. Hold
your head high. Otherwise it’s just a
waste of a life.”
Frank reaches out to his friends with
NF, urging them to stop hiding and
start living.
“Some of them won’t even post a
picture of themselves on Facebook.
It’s time they accept who they are, love
who they are, embrace their condition,” Frank noted.
Frank mentioned that, while he is
in some form of physical pain every
single day of his life, he “just keeps
on trucking the best he can.” He adds
that he is very thankful for all of the
friends he has made who do not care
about tumors all over his body, but care
about the “cool cat” that he is!
THE IDEA: The idea for the film came
from a photo shoot we did a couple of years
ago. The model in the shoot had made a joke about going to school
dressed like she was (bloodied and carrying a chainsaw) and what
people would think. She had mentioned she was picked on and
that sparked an idea for the film.
The Film
THE CAST: Casting for the film started when the idea was
presented with the model Heather Maybon (who later bowed out) and Frank Moore. The idea for the film is about a
bullied high school girl that is befriended by a dormant serial killer who teaches her the finer points of revenge.
The script was finished in February 2016 and final casting began (all Local Talent) with Jennifer Gentile. Frank
Moore and Paul Sweeting as the Main Cast and Kierra Hall, Brianne Braley, Chapin Faverman, Dannika Hughes,
Tommy Martindale, Sean Murphy, Nora Lee & Jim Middleton rounding out the Supporting Cast.
THE PRODUCTION: Writer, Director & Producer Todd E. Braley was at the helm of the film and worked with
local business (Grand Junction Motor Speedway) and schools (Grand Junction HS Drama Dept.) to get great production
value. Plus having out of town filmmakers and local crew members come into Grand Junction to assist Todd with
shooting the film.
THE RELEASE: The film began production in March 2016 and was finished in April 2016. We shot for 9 days
(weekends), Misfit is currently in post-production and is going to premiere on July 1, 2016. The film will then be
available online on Video On Demand the middle of July.
Filmmaker Profile:
Profile: Frank Moore
By Jeffrey Inks
Age: 50
Occupation: Cook
Hobbies: Music—I play guitar, mandolin and ukulele, although I’m not very
good. Ha Ha.
Family: Mom and Dad; my
sister Pam died in 1978 from NF
(Neurofibromatosis).
Favorite Restaurant: Agavero’s Mexican Experience
Goals: Just to live day to day, be thankful, and maybe find love again.
How did you find out about the movie “Misfit,” and what prompted you
to audition for it?
No audition. The director Todd approached me about the opportunity, and I
was super excited to be a part of it.
What did you gain from being involved in the making of this movie?
Lots of new friends and some experience of what goes into making a movie.
Memorizing my lines also helped me quit drinking so much, as it gave me
something to focus on.
How old were you when you were diagnosed with NF?
I was 2 years old. I also had my first surgery on my leg to reduce excess tissue.
Do you feel as if there is enough research being done to help with the cure
of NF? Not enough. Awareness is key. I’ve actually dealt with docs who’ve
never heard of it.
When you lost your leg, I’m assuming you were first in shock, then depressed,
then what...how long did it take for you to adjust?
I was actually super happy. I grew up with a very badly deformed leg and
wore special shoes all my life. This was something I had always wanted. It was
an awesome thing to be able to wear the same size shoes on both feet. I adapted
well and was back to work in a little over 9 weeks.
I hear you’ve even hiked up to the top of Mount Garfield, something I
would like to tackle someday. When did you do that? Did you get to the top
on your first attempt?
It took two tries. It was in 2012, and it was something I had to tackle after
my divorce, almost as a symbol of new freedom.
Facts about Neurofibromatosis
NF has been classified into three distinct types: NF1, NF2 and schwannomatosis.
They are caused by different genes, located on different chromosomes.
NF1 is the most common neurological disorder caused by a single gene, occurring
in one in every 3,000 children born.
NF2 is a rarer type, occurring in 1:25,000 people worldwide
Each child of an affected parent has a 50% chance of inheriting the gene and
developing NF.
NF is worldwide in distribution, affects both sexes equally and has no particular
racial, geographic or ethnic distribution. Therefore, NF can appear in any family.
Although most cases are mild to moderate, NF can lead to disfigurement;
blindness; skeletal abnormalities; dermal, brain and spinal tumors; loss of limbs;
malignancies and learning disabilities.

How long ago did you come up with the concept of your most
recent movie? Two years ago.
In 20 words, how would you best describe this movie, Misfit?
Misfit is an old-school horror film with new-school horror—gore
with a relatable storyline.
How long did it take to film and edit?
Production of the film took nine days—shooting on weekends,
so as not to infringe on school for the younger actors and work
for the grownups. Editing is in the works as of now.
When will you be premiering the movie?
The film will be ready to premiere July 1, 2016.
Did you first meet Frank Moore when casting this movie?
I met Frank about four years ago when we shot the first incarnation of Surviving the Undead. He showed up to be a zombie on
the show. I got to know him from there. We spoke on Facebook
many times, got to be friends. When the idea for Misfit came
about, he asked about being a part of it. I thought about having
him star in the film as a serial killer. I asked him if that was a part
he wanted to play, and he jumped at the chance! We’ve become
even closer friends since we had started on the film. Frank is an
amazing person, and I feel privileged to know him.
and commitment to bringing more joy
into this world set him apart from the
crowd.
Sam Richardson
Frank is an inspiration to me. He
reminds me not to let the little things
slow us down.
Greer Mitchell
What was your first reaction when you saw that he had NF
(Neurofibromatosis type I (NF-1) is a tumor disorder caused by
mutation of a gene on chromosome 17 responsible for control of
cell division. NF-1 causes tumors along the nervous system and
can grow anywhere on the body)?
I was not aware what the disease was. Scot Stewart, a mutual
friend of ours, explained it to me. I looked it up online and got a
better idea of what it is. It’s a pretty messed-up thing to have, but
Frank continues to be positive about his life. He’s an inspiration.
What kind of energy did Frank bring to the film set? I know
him he can be a prankster at times.
Frank brought fun and jokes, but he was very focused and took
this film role very seriously. He had his lines memorized, hit his
marks and was a dream to have on set. Having a lot of younger
actors on set, it got a little noisy at times; he was always very
quiet and waiting for his turn to be on camera.
Our film Misfit has definitely benefited from having Frank be
a part of it. The character was not written to have NF. It was not
a consideration for having Frank play the role that he played. It
just so happens that Frank has NF. The NF isn’t even addressed
in the film. He has a line when our main character looks at him.
He says to her “Yeah.. I know I’m pretty. But don’t worry. I’m
not contagious.” That’s all that is said about his appearance. Frank
has also told me that because of the film opportunity, he has given
up drinking. That, in itself, is also inspirational.

There are two things I have seen through the years that, if you
would have asked me as I was growing up, I would have said
probably would not happen while I was alive. When I was young,
the divide between eastern and western Europe existed, and the
Berlin Wall was symbolic of the greater divide between the two
world powers that, at that time, dominated world politics. I was
amazed to see so symbolic a barrier come down in my lifetime,
and I still thank the stars for Ronald Regan for making it happen.
The second thing I could not imagine happening while I was
alive was the disappearance of one of the two major political
parties that have been in power in the United States since the
Whigs were disbanded in the mid 1850s. And then, in the course
of this one political season, I may be treated to the demise of one
and possibly both parties.
First, I want to say I am not a member of either of the parties.
I do not espouse a platform of bigger and bigger government and
more and more spending coupled with higher taxes, and I do not
support the influx of illegal aliens unchecked across our border,
so I will not support the party of John McCain and G.H.W. Bush.
On the other hand, I’m too intelligent to believe that I can have the
government pay for everything and just raise taxes ad infinitum
without losing all my freedoms, so I can’t support the Democrats,
either. But I must say, to watch both parties disintegrate before my
very eyes is an amazing sight.
Both parties have brought on their own demise, so we shouldn’t
mourn the passing of either; and, in the vacuum left with their
leaving, we can only hope two other parties emerge. Wouldn’t it
8
be interesting to see an actual conservative party emerge from the
ashes of the left-leaning Republican party and a truly, dyed-in-thewool socialist party that actually calls itself “socialist” spring up
from the dying roots of the Democrats? If that happened, people
would actually have a choice—follow Europe into the abyss, or
resurrect The United States in some form of its original ideals.
After watching interviews with the Sanders supporters this political
season, I’d probably be converting dollars to euros before long,
but it would be a choice as clear as black and white, not the shades
of gray that now separate the parties.
The Democrats, through liberal teachers, have controlled the
school systems in the United States for my entire lifetime, and we
are now seeing the results of their efforts. You can see the result
of those years of dumbing-down the standards in the blank minds
and vapid eyes of the Sanders supporters. Promise them free college and the forgiveness of student loans, and they are yours. Ask
them who will pay for it and they will say “the rich.” To imagine
a candidate that far to the left of Hillary and the Muslim king is
nothing short of mind-boggling, but the socialist dream of having
everything and having someone else pay for it is alive and well
in the mind of the college-aged kids supporting Sanders. When
a “Trump 2016” message chalked on a college campus sidewalk
constitutes hate speech in the minds of the students, the liberals
have won. But when Hillary inevitably wins their nomination by
controlling the rigged system, the millions of Sanders supporters
will see what a crooked system they’ve bought into. Can the
Democrat party survive?
On the Republican side, you can see that John McCain and the
party bosses will actually support Hillary rather than let an outsider,
be it Cruz or Trump, win and challenge the Republican old guard’s
hold on power. They know if the Democrat wins, their position in
the power structure is secure for at least four more years, and they
are more concerned with that than anything else, including the
welfare of the country. The future of the country, our position in
world politics, jobs in the United States, and all other concerns of
the public take a back seat to their remaining in power. But when
they don’t support the person the Republican voters
nominate, or try to throw the election by bringing in
one on their own, they will effectively finish off a
party that has been winning seats but losing esteem
for many years. Maybe more people who now call
themselves Republicans will recognize the rigged
system, as I did years ago, and let the party finally die.
Will the country be better off without one or both
of the political parties? I think the question is better
framed by asking: Could it be any worse than it is in
its present state.

A Ridgway RiverFest sponsors needed
to support annual community festival
The Uncompahgre Watershed Partnership (UWP), the
Ouray County nonprofit focused on protection and restoration of the Upper Uncompahgre River Watershed, is
seeking sponsors for the 9th annual Ridgway RiverFest
“Celebrating our Watershed,” to be held on Saturday, June
25, 2016, in Rollans Park, Ridgway, Colorado. Sponsor
support is necessary to ensure successful production of
this valuable outdoor festival, which brings attention to
and educates the community and its visitors about local
water resources.
The RiverFest is not only a fun, family-friendly riverside
festival, but it is a key fundraising event for the nonprofit,
which is involved in mine remediation projects, environmental restoration, water monitoring, and various community outreach events. As always, this year’s RiverFest
will feature all-age river races, educational and cultural
activities, live music, local food and beverages. We are
also working on a search-and-rescue demo on the river.
Plus, we are expanding our water education booths and
youth activities.

Loc
by Jeffrey B. Inks
How long have you been playing
music professionally?
I had my first paying gig at about
age 14, so more than 45 years. My
mother was a musician, and the music
was always near. I’m not sure about the
term “professional,” as I have only on
rare occasions in my life played for a
living. I would call it one of my many
passions.
Don’t you have ties to the Kansas
City area? I grew up in Kansas City,
Mo. Colorado has been my home for
27 years now.
In your long career playing live
music, have you toured with bands
through multiple states?
I’ve done my share of traveling
over the years—more so recently
than when I was younger. I have had
more opportunities to play with good
players in the last ten years, and to
contribute to some really fun projects
that required travel. I have been able
to play a good number of gigs on the
West Coast.
When did RetroSpectacle form,
and who on earth came up with the
name?
RetroSpectacle began in 2012, when
Robb Huff, Kirk Brosius and our late
brother Paul Kelly invited me to join
them. They had been playing together
for a couple of years and wanted to
start a new project. We got together
to jam, and it felt right, so we began
rehearsing. We knew right off the bat
that we wanted it to be all about the
groove, with many kinds of ethnic and
tribal rhythms. When Steve joined us,
many things became possible. The
band’s name came from my friend,
Thomas Dolby.
Can you tell me who is in the band
and what each member brings to the
mix as far as experience?
Capt. Kirk Brosius is on bass and
vocals; Robb Huff is on keyboards
and vocals; Steve Sokel, vocals and
drummer extraordinaire, who joined
us after Paul’s untimely passing; and
me on guitar and vocals. What all
these players bring is the ability to
follow arrangements—or not—and
to improvise as the whim takes us.
With over 160 years of combined
experience, we can jump into the
freeform and remain comfortable. As
a band, we also know how to have a
good time!
How has the band evolved since
you first formed?
That is all about the music, our
relationship with the groove. We have
been able to stretch out so much and
embrace ourselves and the audience.
We have a good deal of fun! When
there is a Conga line writhing in
front of you, there is little doubt how
the audience feels. That is a regular
occurrence at our shows. Sometimes,
we improvise a vocal jam, and
everyone gets to sing.
What type of tunes are you playing
live these days? Is there a particular
artist you like to pay homage to more
than others? We have a very eclectic
song list. We perform songs from
Paul Simon to Harry Belefonte, from
GRAND
JUNCTION
CHRYSLER • JEEP • DODGE • RAM
Retrospectacle
SRV and Robert Johnson, and songs
dating from 1929 up to the 1990s.
We play many songs by the Grateful
Dead, as well as songs by the Funky
Meters and the Neville Brothers. It’s
easier to talk about the rhythms than
the artists—Afro-Cuban, Funk, Latin,
African, Reggae, Swamp Blues; and
from artists: Stevie Wonder, Dr. John,
Keb Mo’, Los Lobos, Santana, Louis
Jordan, Herbie Hancock, Jeff Beck and
Albert King.
If you could change one thing
about the live music scene here in
Grand Junction, what would you
change?
I don’t think I’d change much.
The original bands in our valley
have their followings and get to play
when they like. The cover bands are
mostly working, albeit for less than
what they made 20 years ago (don’t
get me started on THAT). I see more
support for our live music scene than
at anytime in past years. We seem to
have an expanding musical community
here—something we haven’t had
since the 90’s. The players all have
something to say and know how to
say it. We have decent crowds when
we play, and they look like they are
there to have a good time. The arts in
general could use more support, but
that’s always the case. We do what
we can.
What’s on tap for the band this
summer? We will be playing at
Edgewater Brewery again on May 28.
We play at the Palisade Brewing Co.
about every six weeks—the next time
on June 18. Wine Country Inn will be
hosting the band on July 8, and we’re
playing the Fruita Concert Series on
July 28. We will be booking the fall
soon.

Durango Blues Train
August 12 and 13, 2016
Tickets and Artist Lineup Coming Soon
By popular demand and with a sold-out June train, the Durango Blues
Train has announced a second weekend, August 12-13, of live blues
aboard the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Presented by
SBG Productions and the Telluride Blues & Brews Festival this unique
live music experience takes place aboard the historic steam train in
Durango CO, with musicians performing in their vintage coach car,
while passengers are free to sample each musical act by dancing from
one rail car to next. Tickets will be available soon and the artist lineup will be
revealed in the coming weeks.
“We’re thrilled to continue the Blues Train in its sixth year aboard the historic railroad,” said Steve Gumble,
founder of the Durango Blues Train.
An evening on the Blues Train treats passengers to a musical journey on the 100+-year-old Durango & Silverton
Narrow Gauge steam-powered train. Each evening will feature four solo and duo acts, and two full bands, each offering
an intimate concert aboard the historic train. Passengers will also experience breathtaking views of the San Juan National
Forest including the “Highline,” a world famous section of railroad crawling along cliffs high above the Animas River.
Guests can enjoy light snacks and beverage,s including wine and beer from sponsors Telluride Brewing Company
and Ska Brewing while riding the train. Tickets are $95 per person per night, plus a 7% Historic Train Preservation fee.
Tickets are extremely limited and will sell out in advance. Purchasers must be 21 years old to participate. Tickets will
be available online in the coming weeks.
For those looking to stay near the train depot, an assortment of lodging selections (at local hotel partners) are available. To view all accommodation options, and for general information, please visit online at DurangoBluesTrain.com.
The Durango Blues Train is a unique ‘moving’ experience featuring live blues acts while passengers travel aboard the
Historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad’s coal-fired, steam-powered train to the spectacular and breathtaking “Highline” canyon of Colorado’s San Juan National Forest.
Back Surgery WARNING!
Spinal Stenosis and Bulging, Herniated, and Degenerative Discs
Grand Junction, CO—In a 2002
issue of Neurosurgical Focus, a
peer-reviewed article was published by a Dr. Michael D. Martin, MD et al. in which the third
sentence states: “The disc itself
is active tissue that contains significant mechanisms for selfrepair.” That article was published by a neurosurgeon and
written directly for neurosurgeons.
“The Disc Itself Is
Active Tissue...”
So what does that really mean to
us? It tells us that the disc itself
does have a God-given ability to
heal and repair if provided the
proper mechanisms for selfhealing. There is a specific
mechanism inherent in each of
the spinal discs called the “pump
mechanism of disc nutrition” (see Fig 1). When this
mechanism is not working properly, the spinal discs will begin
to die causing bulges, herniations, and eventually spinal
stenosis.
The spinal disc is one of the very
few tissues in the body that does
not have a direct blood supply
for circulation. The only way
that the disc gets the circulation
of water, oxygen and nutrients
for self-repair is via this specific
disc pump mechanism. What
happens when you decrease circulation in any type of tissue,
whether it be animal tissue, plant
tissue or human tissue? Exactly,
it begins to become weak and
begins to degenerate.
cally or put a piece of duct tape
over the lights but the problem
will NOT be fixed...the problem
is still present.
Fig 1: Proper anatomy of the discs and
the pump mechanism of disc nutrition.
Symptoms Are NOT
The
Problem
Now the symptoms of pain,
numbness, and tingling that most
experience with bulging, herniated or degenerative discs are
NOT the problem. The definition of a symptom: “something
that indicates the existence of
something else.” It is just like
the dashboard of your car telling
you that something is wrong
(brake lights out, engine needs
checked, overheating, etc.)
Those lights that appear in your
car dash are NOT the problem.
You can remove the lights surgi-
You wouldn’t ignore your car’s check
engine light...so don’t ignore your health.
Let’s take a look at a plant for
example...if the leaves on a plant
begin to turn brown, would you
say that the brown leaves are the
plant’s problem? Of course not,
the leaves turning brown is just a
condition that is telling you that
there is something wrong with
the plant. The plant is unhealthy
and needs water and nutrients.
You could spray paint the leaves
green but it just covers up the
condition. The underlying problem still exists and will continue
to produce brown leaves until
you fix the actual problem.
In your spine, when the pump
mechanism of disc nutrition
fails, the disc will begin to degenerate and become weak. This
weakness in the disc is what produces the bulging, herniated, and
degenerative discs.
The treatment that is provided at
the Spine & Injury Center of
Grand Junction is revolutionary
and is specifically designed to
artificially re-create the pump
mechanism in the discs which
allows the spinal discs to heal
and repair. The best part of the
treatment is that it uses no drugs,
no injections, and no surgery.
Plus it’s painless and many patients fall asleep while undergoing the treatment.
The amount of treatment needed
to allow the discs to heal and
repair varies from person to person and can only be determined
after a detailed neurological and
orthopedic evaluation. We do
NOT accept everyone for treatment and will let you know if we
can accept your case for treatment.
Dr. Angello, DC at the Spine &
Injury Center of Grand Junction
will do a spinal disc severity examination to determine the extent of your disc damage for NO
COST to the FIRST 15 people
who respond to this ad. This examination will consist of a detailed neurological evaluation,
extensive orthopedic testing, and
a detailed analysis of the findings of your evaluation. He will
sit down with you and go over
your condition with you in complete detail. You will know exactly what is causing all your
pain (or other symptoms).
Dr. Angello will be offering this
spinal disc severity examination
from now until May 21, 2016.
Call 970-248-9833 to make an
appointment with Dr. Angello to
determine
if
your
spinal
discs can be treated.

Having the Time of
Someone Else’s Wife
I’m a 39-year-old guy, and I just
met the most amazing woman,
but she’s going through a divorce.
My best friend said never to date
somebody while they’re divorcing,
because they’re crazy and emotionally unavailable. He says you need to
wait for two years afterward. Well, I
really like this woman, and she likes
me. If I dated her now, would I just
be a rebound?
—Bad Waiter
There are clues to where on the
divorce spectrum someone falls, like
whether she makes offhand remarks
along the lines of “I wish him well, but
we weren’t a good match” or “I wish
I could leave him tied up in a clearing
so something would eat him.”
There is something to be said for
waiting periods, whether you’re mentally ill and shopping for an Uzi or
hoping to live happily ever after with
someone who might not be entirely
recovered from her previous attempt.
But the blanket “wait two years!”
advice is silly and probably comes out
of a misconstruing of some research
finding. (Also, as an epidemiologist
friend frequently points out to me,
these findings tell us how something
seems to affect most people; however, there are important individual differences that get lost…like that tiny
line about potential side effects: “Oh,
by the way, 1 percent of the subjects
ended up wearing all their teeth on a
necklace.”)
Still, unless this woman and her notquite-ex-husband got married a few
months ago because they were superdrunk and standing near each other in
Vegas, there’s a chance she’ll believe
she’s ready to get involved before she
actually is. Whether it makes sense
to date her now becomes a question
of risk analysis. Plug in the variables
you know, like the ugliness level of her
divorce, whether she starts every other
sentence with “my ex…,” and whether
she seems to understand where she

went wrong (and take responsibility
for her part in it). Factor in her fabulousness and your level of risk tolerance—how willing and able you are to
deal if, a year in, she apologizes after
realizing that she just needed a nice
man to put Band-Aids on her ouchies.
Even if it seems unwise to date her
right now, you can keep a foot in the
game by seeing her regularly—like
once a month— while keeping the
temperature on low. Stick to daytime
dates—short, bright light, no alcohol—
and use abstinence-only measures that
have been found to be highly effective, such as wearing Green Lantern
Underoos. (As a bonus, these would
double as incentive to avoid texting
while driving and ending up the talk
of the ambulance bay for two weeks.)
The Frenzy Zone
I’m a woman just out of a 13-year
relationship, and dating isn’t going
so well. My roommate says I need
to stop blatantly pursuing men—
texting first, initiating
plans, etc.—and instead
flirt, hang back, and
“seem busy.” That just
seems so archaic, starting a relationship on the
manipulative premise
of feminine game-playing. It’s 2016. Why isn’t
authenticity appreciated?
—Forgive Me, I’m Real
Ideally, you’ll make a
guy ache with longing—
but more along the lines
of “I wish she’d text me
back” than “I wish she’d
put down those binoculars
and get out of my bushes.”
In other words, you
might rethink “authentic-
ity”—letting the true you (or rather,
the truly impatient you) shine through.
Consider acting like the more effective you, as you surely would for a
job interview—rather than showing
up in sweats and bragging that your
character reference is actually your
pot dealer and that “Mr. Bradley,” your
“former employer,” is the neighbor’s
Labradoodle.
Chances are you’ve been “blatantly
pursuing” because, like many women,
you confuse “equal” with “the same.”
However, there’s substantial evidence
from evolutionary psychology research
that women evolved to be the choosier
sex and that men co-evolved to expect
this—and see female aloofness as a
sign of value. So a more productive
strategy for you would be what social
psychologist Robert Cialdini calls “the
scarcity principle.” Cialdini explains
that the less available something is,
the more we value and want it. Not
because it’s better. Because FOMO
(Fear Of Missing Out) and the regret
we’d feel if we let that happen jack us
into a motivational state—a panic to
get whatever’s in short supply.
But don’t take my word for it. For
three weeks, try something new: flirting and waiting instead of chasing
and pouncing. Ultimately, it’s best to
start a relationship on the premise that
actually allows it to start—coming off
more like the appointment-only store
with a single avant-garde dress than
the kind with a big yellow sign in the
window: Everything in the store, $15,
including the dog.”

Unique Farm Promotes Wellness in the Grand Valley
By Leslie Kell
The passion of
health, wellness and
locally grown food is
exactly what led Sara
and Mark Beckner to
“buy a patch of dirt
to call [their] own.”
They planted their
roots right off of G
road when they created Rooted Gypsy Farms a
year ago. Official production for the farm began
a few months ago, according to Mark Beckner,
one of the co-owners.
by using the waste from the tilapia to supply
nutrients to the plants, and the plants in turn
purify the water for the tilapia. Rooted Gypsy
Farms uses the technique of aquaponics to keep
their crops fresh and growing all year round.
The farm owners and workers hope to
provide the Grand Valley with fresh crops and
locally grown produce. One way that they do
this is through their Farm Boxes. A Farm Box
is a subscription for the growing season June
15-September 21. Each box includes several
vegetables, homemade jams, chutneys, a fresh
baguette, and recipes. The recipes are specifically
for the vegetables in each box. The Farm Boxes

Rooted Gypsy Farms grows nearly 6,000 crops
to be harvested and sold to local restaurants,
such as Bin 707, 626 on Rood, and Café Sol.
A sampling of the crops includes lettuce, kale,
basil, purple mustard, parsley, carrots and several
other vegetables. This farm is unique in the Grand
Valley because of its use of aquaponics. This is a
special way of growing crops using fish. In this
farm’s case, they use tilapia. Aquaponics works

are available for customers to go to Rooted
Gypsy Farms to pick up once a week. All of the
vegetables are harvested on the day of pickup.
Rooted Gypsy Farms offers a salad subscription
for once a week or twice a week pickup, as well.
The goal of Rooted Gypsy Farms
is to promote health and wellness
in the Grand Valley. As it says on
their Web site, “We want to be a
gathering place with an emphasis
on moving toward those things that
foster wellness.” Fresh produce
is only one way that the farm is
promoting wellness. They also plan
to offer yoga sessions in a small
studio at their facility beginning in
June this year. Their hope is to have
yoga students come visit the farm for
exercise and then grab their healthy
food afterward. Along with yoga,
Rooted Gypsy Farms also offers
acupuncture services. Sara Beckner,
co-owner of the farm, received a
Masters Degree in acupuncture and
offers services for her clients at the
farm’s location.
Rooted Gypsy Farms is a business
with a passion for health and overall
wellness for people of the Grand
Valley. The Beckners also hope that
their business can be an educational
tool for those in the Grand Valley
who want to learn about how to
eat the right foods and do the right
activities to maintain a healthy body.
If you would like more information
or would like to sign up to receive a farm box
or salad subscription, you can find their Website
online at www.rootedgypsyfarms.com.
Rooted Gypsy Farms will be offering a limited number of nourishing farm boxes this season.
Each box will be designed to inspire your senses and well-being.
What to look forward to in your box:
5-7 seasonal vegetables and herbs harvested on the day of pick-up.
A freshly baked loaf of bread or baguette.
Herbal tea blends, fresh eggs, flowers, and homemade jams and chutneys.
Hand-crafted wellness products.
A newsletter with nutrition information about the produce you receive as well as recipes that
highlight the produce in your box.
Details: Every other Wednesday, June 15 - September 21 • $400 for the season

Brothers Keeper is a trio
that honestly displays heart
and soul and rock and roll.
The core band consists of Scott
Rednor on guitar, Michael Jude on
bass, and John Michel on drums.
All three, hailing from an attitude
ridden east coast background, have
transplanted to the Vail and Roaring
Fork Valleys in Colorado for both the
mountains and the music.
inspired this initial collaboration with
Brothers Keeper.
After that first show in which
Popper and Manson joined Brothers
Keeper, Popper brought into play
the idea of doing a project together,
which led the band to write and
record the album that will be released
on 8150 Records late this summer,
entitled “Todd Meadows”. This debut
from the band is an Americana/Rock
n Roll album, featuring 5 lead singers,

For the past 15 years, Michael and
John have steadily played with the
John Oates Band (Hall and Oates)
and many other world renown
musicians, while Scott has been
involved in recording and touring
projects on a national level for
more than 20 years. Scott now owns
Shakedown Bar in Vail where he
serves as Music Director bringing in
national talent for locals and tourists
from around the world. It is there that
the trio has made their home amongst
an amazing cast of rotating musicians
as well as several “Brothers Keeper
Featuring Series” shows. The first of
the series featured John Popper of
Blues Traveler, and Jono Manson.
Rednor had met Popper on the
HORDE festivals in the mid 90’s and
they had done quite a bit of touring
together. Jono Manson is from New
York City and helped pioneer the
Nightingales/Wetlands uprising that
had spawned Phish, Blues Traveler,
Spin Doctors, and many more
successful bands. Rednor had opened
up for High Plains Drifter, which was
a super group of sorts, fronted by
Manson, featuring members of a few
of these bands. It was the recollection
of that raucous rock and roll that

experience, and a wide range of
musical styles. The LP was written
by the band in Santa Fe in April of

in Memphis, Tennessee in June of
2013. Other guests on the album
include Jason Crosby (Phil Lesh and
Friends), Glenn McClelland (Ween),
DJ Logic, Joel Guzman, and Rob
Eaton Jr. This is a Rock n roll outfit

- Headband The infamous Headband comes from a cross of OG Kush (a pheno of Chemdawg) and
Sour Diesel which are both very popular in the Colorado weed scene. The extremely
potent combination of these two strains generated the name “Headband” due to the
intense high you get after taking a few puffs, making you feel like you were wearing a
headband on your head. If you’d like to be this stoned, the Headband is the perfect
strain for you.

Client Testimonial
I have Fibromyalgia which causes me severe pain and
debilitating fatigue, along with a thing called Fibro fog which
affects my thinking process, there are many things relating to
this disease, but I won’t go into them right now. I have been
taking CBD for nearly 3 months I am currently on Morphine for
the pain, since taking the CBD I am in the process of weaning
myself off of my Morphine. My pain level since taking the
CBD has greatly declined, and my fatigue has decreased. My
quality of life has improved greatly since taking the CBD. I am
able to travel with my husband now. Which I was unable to
do before due to the pain and fatigue, and I am able to more
things that I love doing like gardening.

Change is important. Change
provides for new opportunities and

change is, people throughout history
have been reluctant to change. Change
even causes fear for some. The idea
that Marijuana is a good thing makes
some people question their values, and
this is discomforting.
150 years ago, abolitionist wanted to
outlaw slavery in the United States of
America—not only because it was the
“right thing to do” then, but because
the U.S. Constitution expected it to
be so. In the end, the rule of law won
out over social prejudice and driving
economies. During the struggle for
changed federal regulation, abolitionist could be prosecuted for what would

in the USA.
Today, the federal prohibition of
Cannabis has reigned for 70 years.
This prohibition is based on laws and
regulations that don’t conform to any
form of known truth. The first word
in “Truth, Justice, and the American
way” is truth. Yet, our federal government and many different states governments prosecute people according
to regulations that are obviously false
according to commonly available
information. Much has changed in 70
years and yet, today is not much different from 150 years ago.
Growing medical marijuana can
send a person to prison for life.
Fortunately for those of us in Colorado,
we lead the nation in deregulating
Marijuana and making it available for
anyone who has the space to grow and
a qualifying condition. For those of us
who can’t grow our own, our state’s
constitution allows for another individual to provide for them from their
own garden.

Of all the shops I tried in Colorado Silt Green Cross was definitely
by far the best. What I love the most was the tax was included in
the overall price, and the prices are very reasonable. They have a
great selection and more than friendly staff to help you with your
purchase. The specials they have everyday was my favorite. Always
a satisfied customer and I can’t wait to return!
