A form entitled “Non-Mo-torized Trail Agreement” thatat first glance looks as thoughit came from the county, butdidn’t, has been circulatingand found its way to the boardof county commissioners whosay it is not a form draed orapproved of by the countyboard.

Commissioners each have a

copy of the form and dis-cussed it at July 20 and July 27meetings.

A citizen brought the formto the July 27 meeting andasked if it was from the countyand if it was legal.

“No,” was the answer fromboard chairman Joel Evans.He explained that the board isaware of the document andhas been trying to findout who draed it.

e mystery form has thewords “County of Charlevoix”and the address and phonenumber for the county build-ing at the top of the page. Itasks residents to agree to theconstruction of the non-mo-torized trail on the road right-of-way. e recreational trail isproposed to run along theBoyne City-Charlevoix Road

As cities in Charlevoixcounty and elsewhere in thestate attempt to come intocompliance with the med-ical marijuana law by zon-ing to allow dispensaries,legislators are introducingbills to clarify and reformthe 2008 Act.

Six bills have been intro-duced thus far in the stateHouse. e bills have beenreferred to the House Judi-ciary Committee. One ofthe bills, H.B. 4834, wouldrequire patients to providecurrent color photos asidentification to be usedwith the patient registrycard. State Rep. Greg Mac-Master is a co-sponsor onthis bill. Other bills wouldprohibit medical marijuanafrom being used in barsand clubs, prohibit patientsfrom growing medical mar-ijuana plants within 500-feet of a church, school orday care center, would clar-ify a bona fide physician-patient relationship andwould prohibit use of med-ical marijuana in a schoolbus, on the grounds of anypreschool, primary or sec-ondary school, in any cor-rectional facility or in anypublic place. Bills have alsobeen introduced in the stateSenate.

A June 28 Opinion by At-torney General BillSchuette states that theMichigan Medical Mari-juana Act does not providefor the operation of cooper-atives. Whether that ex-tends to dispensariesremains to be seen.

from Boyne City to U.S. 31 inCharlevoix Township.

Aer lengthy discussion aboutthe origin of the form, countyboard of commissioners’ chairman,Joel Evans, checked with counsel.

“is form is not effective, is thatright? “

Attorney Shaynee Fanara said itwas not a valid document.

“en it doesn’t matter whodraed it,” Evans said.

Commissioner Chris Chris-tensen said at the July 20 meetingthat he could understand whythere is confusion because of theappearance of the document, butnoted it was missing county au-thentication.

“It’s not on county letterhead,”Christensen said. “We want toreach out to the people who signedit and let them know it’s not ourform.”

Bay Township resident RogerConaway said the form is mislead-ing. He is concerned about theroute of the proposed trail and thatit would infringe on propertyrights. He requested that thecounty stake the route of the non-motorized trail so people know ex-actly where it would run.

In the spring of 2002, the love offishing for steelhead trout (known aschasing steel in the upper peninsula),and the love of playing traditionalmusic, brought a band of new broth-ers together to form a bluegrassband. ey named their bluegrassband Chasin’ Steel. Chasin’ Steel hasbeen a favorite among local bluegrassenthusiast, and will return to AtenPlace by popular demand for firsttime since 2008 on Saturday, August6th at 7:30 p.m..

Jonah Kuhlman, on guitar andhammered dulcimer, and JacobKuhlman on banjo, grew up playingmusic in the family band. When theyjoined forces with Adam Carpenter,playing mandolin and singing leadvocals, a unique chemistry “spawned”a new flavor of bluegrass from the re-mote shores of Lake Superior inMichigan’s Upper Peninsula. AddingEvan Simula on upright bass andtenor vocals completed the quar-tet. Chasin' Steel is a traditionallystructured bluegrass group with themajority of their songs featuring thebanjo, mandolin, guitar and acousticbass, along with, powerful three andfour part harmonies.

Although they typically struc-ture their instrumentation in this tra-ditional manner, many have labeledtheir unique sound “Bluegrass with aRock & Roll attitude." ey also fea-ture several songs with the ham-mered dulcimer, which are always

crowd pleasers. Chasin' Steel has nu-merous original songs, including, thepopular “Drink My Dinner” and thehard-driving, traditionally styledsong “Lonesome And Blue”. Addi-tionally, they have many traditionaland contemporary bluegrass coversin their repertoire, most of whichhave that hard- driving, aggressivenature to them. One contemporarysong getting attention is their versionof the Smokie and the Bandit themesong, “Eastbound and Down.” Manyof their loyal fans also enjoy theirtribute to Jimmy Martin, known asthe King of Bluegrass. ey havebeen called a “high-energy” bandthat not only appeals to hardcorebluegrass fans, but to the average fanof music as well.

Aten Place is located 1/2 milesouth of Cherry Hill Road on OldMackinaw Trail in Boyne Falls. e

venue is a ninety-year old oak framebarn with seating for 180, overlook-ing the Boyne River valley, in theshadow of Boyne Mountain.

e Retired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) ofCharlevoix and Emmet Counties is continuing its efforts toplace senior volunteers in educational settings. An informationand training session will be held on Wednesday, August 10from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Petoskey Friendship Center,1322 Anderson Rd. Lunch will be served to participants.anks to a grant from the Oleson Foundation, there is nocharge for this training opportunity. is session is open to cur-rent volunteers, as well as those in the area that are interested inlearning about how they can be involved.

RSVP is a Senior Corps program administered by the Corpo-ration for National and Community Service, which providesvolunteer opportunities for individuals aged 55 and over, serv-ing non-profit partner agencies throughout Charlevoix andEmmet counties. e program is sponsored by Friendship Cen-ters of Emmet County. RSVP offers "one stop shopping" for allwho want to find challenging, rewarding, and significant serviceopportunities in their local communities.

RSVP launched their “Volunteers in Education” initiative lastsummer, and the push was successful. As compared to the sametwelve-month period (July 1 to June 30) in 2009-2010, thenumber of hours RSVP volunteers served in schools nearlydoubled, from 646 hours in ’09-’10 to 1,287 hours in ’10-‘11.Volunteers have stepped up to help out in a number of elemen-tary schools throughout RSVP’s two-county service area, fromPellston to Boyne Falls to Charlevoix.

A poll conducted by United Ways across the U.S. in the fall of2010 revealed that the vast majority of Americans felt U.S.schools were declining. Regardless of who they are, where theylive, or what they do, everyday Americans see good schools andgood communities as inextricably linked. ey see the impactof education on their local community and, conversely, theneed for their entire local community to take responsibility forthe quality of their children’s education. And while they clearlyhave the desire to take action, many are unsure how or whetherthey can make a real difference—and want to step forward onlyif they can. e report signaled that many people are willing tohelp, but don't know how to go about it. RSVP offers a programthat matches the talents of older volunteers with needs in localschools.

Volunteers placed in school settings by RSVP are able tochoose their level of involvement with students. Some workone-on-one as mentors for at-risk children. Others serve as tu-tors for students who are challenged with reading or math.Some may choose to work with groups of children, by leadingreading groups or enrichment studies. Others have offered lis-tening ears for early readers, or acted as teachers’ assistants dur-ing art class.

Reservations are required by August 8th for the “Volunteersin Education” training, and can be made by contacting Sue AnnBouwense, RSVP Project Director, at (231) 347-3211 or (888)347-0369, ext. 29.

By Aaron M. Potts, iSSA CFt

What would you con-sider is your most valuabletool for staying in shape? Isit your treadmill? Whatabout your weight set? Is ityour arsenal of low-fatcookbooks, and low-carbdiet snacks? What aboutyour collection of workoutvideos?

Would you consider it arevelation that your mostlethal weapon in the battleof the bulge is your Atti-tude?

ink about it. Whatgood is your treadmill ifyou don't have the energyto get on it, or can't get upthe motivation to crank upthe speed, or the elevation?How useful are yourdumbbells if you can't pushyourself to use them in themost effective manner?How good is a nutritionprogram that you can'tstick to? How much fat losswill you get out of yourworkout videos if you justcan't seem to get as moti-vated as that bouncy cheer-leader who is urging you tojump higher, or that buffmacho man who keeps saying, "C'mon, just onemore rep!"?

No, none of those tools is going to get you veryfar unless your HEAD is in the right place. Asyou read this article, you have probably alreadybeen exposed to more nutrition and exercise in-formation than you could possibly ever need toactually stay in shape. You've probably read, lis-tened to, or watched the answers to your fitnessissues enough times to win the next Mr. or Mrs.Neighborhood fitness competition a dozen timesover! Yet, you are still not where you want to be.Why? Attitude.

Seeing Your GoalDo you have a clear vision in your head of

where you want to be, or what you want to ac-complish when you are at a peak level of fitness?I don't mean just some vague idea - I'm talkingabout an actual burning mental image of a six-pack set of abs, or a nice set of curves, or a clearpicture of you crossing the finish line in firstplace, or taking home that trophy. If you don'thave that, you are already just spinning yourwheels. How can you expect to get somewhere ifyou don't know where that "somewhere" is?

Many people start out very motivated to get inshape, or to compete for that prize, but their mo-tivation lacks focus - laser-targeted precision thatwill guide them down the right path. e term"as the crow flies" comes to mind. If you couldleave your house and drive in an exact straightline to your destination, don't you think that youwould get there a lot faster? What if you couldjust fly through stop lights and intersections, dis-regard all posted speed limits, and go exactly in astraight line to every destination? You sure wouldget there a lot faster!

Exercise, physical fitness, and nutrition are nodifferent. If you don't have a clearly mapped outand measurable road map to your success, thenyou will stray, and that will cost you time at thevery least - and at the most, it will cost you pre-cious amounts of self-confidence! Take some

time to think about WHERE you want to be,HOW you are going to get there, and most im-portantly, WHY you want to be there. Take thetime to do that, and I think you'll see that yourprevious path may have been road blocked by afew too many trips to Starbucks for a CaramelFrappuccino. Not that anyone writing a fitnessarticle such as this would know anything aboutthat...

Believing In Your AbilityOkay, so you've got yourself a good mental

picture. You have your road map in front of you,your path is straight and true, and you are readyto get started. What comes next? Belief.

Do you believe it is possible to wave a magicwand and have all of your excess bodyfat gone,and all of your fitness goals realized in the blinkof an eye? Of course not. If you do, and youknow the secret, please contact us - I'm sure wecould make some money on that secret! Foreveryone else, I'll ask a different question. Doyou believe that you could sit on your couch,suck down some ice cream, and put on somemore bodyfat? e answer is, unfortunately, yes.

What is the difference between those twoquestions? Very simple - one is possible, and oneis not. What does that have to do with your fit-ness goals? Well, it may come as a surprise, butyou have been dealing in the IMPOSSIBLE forquite sometime now. You have been striving for agoal, yet not really believing that it was withinyour power to reach it.

Oh sure, you may have joined a gym, orbought a new Litmus 3000 Super-Decker top ofthe line treadmill/clothes hanger, but did you re-ally believe that you were going to do it thistime? If you are reading this and you are in per-fect physical condition, then congratulations -you did it! For the rest of you, are you seeing thepoint? You didn't truly believe it, because other-wise it would have happened.

Each of us shelters hidden either very deeplyor sometimes NOT so deeply a seed of doubt

that we will really succeed. When that seed isthere - whether it is planted deeply or not - yoursubconscious waters it and feeds it. e nextthing you know, it is has grown into an entirefield of self-limiting beliefs, and you have neitherthe time nor the desire to get out there in thefield and destroy that evil crop!

What are you to do, then? BELIEVE INYOURSELF! Why? e answer to that is simple -because you are the only one who truly can. Oth-ers may support you, and they may even showyou the path, but it is YOU who has to walk it.

Taking ActionWe have covered the need for you to clearly

see your goal, and for you to use the power of be-lief to start walking down the path, but what'snext?

e next step is the same for you as it is for anaspiring business owner, or a college freshman,or an artist staring at a blank canvas - you have toTAKE ACTION. You can read the top 2 sectionsof this article all day long, but doing so won'tburn off any bodyfat, or pack any muscle tissueonto your body. Only appropriately carried outaction can do that.

ink of all the self-help books that you haveread, or programs that you have watched on TV,or listened to on the radio. Did any of them doyou any good whatsoever if you didn't take ac-tion on what you had learned? What about whatyou have read so far in this article? Has it beenhelpful? Most likely. Will it do you any good ifyou don't Take Action? Nope. Negative. No way.Nada. You get the picture.

You can read, listen, and watch your way rightinto a bodyfat level that would make a sumowrestler jealous, or consider your options untilyour muscles have diminished so much that youcan't even li a toast to your dearly departeddreams, but none of that will mean squat if youdon't GET UP and make it happen!

Why are you still sitting here? Get out thereand Take Action!

ree recent cases of tetanus infec-tion in southeast Michigan haveprompted local public health officialsto remind adults that immunizationsaren’t just for kids.

Adults who are uninsured orwhose health insurance policy doesnot cover immunizations, are eligiblefor $15 Tdap immunization at theHealth Department through theMichigan Adult Vaccine Replace-ment Program. e Health Depart-ment can bill Medicare, Medicaid, orprivate insurance; no one is turnedaway for inability to pay. Call 800-432-4121 to schedule an appoint-ment in Antrim, Charlevoix, Emmet,or Otsego counties.

Tetanus, also known as “lockjaw,”

is an infection caused by bacteria.Tetanus bacteria is commonly foundin soil and can enter the bodythrough wounds contaminated withdirt, feces, soil, or saliva. Tetanus in-fection can cause a person's neck andjaw muscles to lock, making it hardto open the mouth or swallow. It canalso cause breathing problems, severemuscle spasms, and seizures. Tetanusis a serious disease from which it cantake months to recover. If le un-treated, it can be fatal.

“It is important forteenagers and adults of all ages to getvaccinated against tetanus,” saidJoshua Meyerson, MD, Medical Di-rector for the Health Department ofNorthwest Michigan. “e best treat-

ment for this disease is preventionthrough immunization.”

Meyerson urges teenagers andadults to get vaccinated with Tdapvaccine, which protects not onlyagainst tetanus, but also diphtheriaand pertussis (whooping cough).

Because immunity to tetanus de-creases over time, most adults needto get a booster shot every 10 years tostay protected. Adults who haven'treceived Tdap vaccine should receiveTdap instead of their next regulartetanus (Td) booster. Adults whohave contact with infants should getTdap vaccine as soon as possible be-cause being vaccinated againstwhooping cough will prevent themfrom spreading the disease to vulner-

able infants. It’s a good idea for adultsto talk to their doctor about whatvaccines they might need.

“Vaccination is a lifelong process,”Meyerson said. “It’s important thatadults of all ages get vaccinatedagainst serious diseases, such as flu,tetanus, and whooping cough.”

Many newer vaccines are recom-mended for adults, including vac-cines to protect against shingles,pneumococcal disease, and humanpapillomavirus (HPV). Other vac-cines adults may need includemeasles, mumps, and rubella; vari-cella; hepatitis A and B; andmeningococcal vaccines.Seasonal flu vaccine is now recom-mended for everyone, every year. e

single best way to prevent the flu is toget vaccinated. Adults should talk totheir health care provider about thevaccines they need to be healthy.

e Health Department of North-west Michigan is mandated by theMichigan Public Health Code to pro-mote wellness, prevent disease, pro-vide quality healthcare, addresshealth problems of vulnerable popu-lations, and protect the environmentfor the residents and visitors ofAntrim, Charlevoix, Emmet, and Ot-sego counties. For information aboutvaccines adults need, contact yourhealth care provider, call the HealthDepartment at 800-432-4121 or visitwww.adultvaccination.org/

Three Cases of Tetanus in Michigan: Health Department reminds Adults to Get Tdap Vaccine

By richard romando

Muscles, the storehouse of en-ergy in a living body, contract tohelp in the movement of differ-ent parts of the body. e generalbody composition consistslargely of voluntary muscles. It iscalled voluntary because its con-traction and movement is con-sciously controlled by the livingbeing. Sometimes, these volun-tary muscles contract involuntar-ily and refuse to relax and returnto normalcy. is is called aMuscle Cramp. Muscle Crampsare forceful contractions that sus-tain for sometime and reappear,oen till the muscles relax.Cramps can happen to any vol-untary muscle, mostly bendingor curling the affected muscle.

Muscle Cramps come from thevigorous use of muscles. Crampcan result when a muscle orgroup of muscles that acts to-gether in the movement of a cer-tain part of the body forcefullybecome involuntary. For in-stance, athletes oen complain ofMuscle Cramps in calf muscles.But when it affects the feet, thegroup of muscles in the fingerstoo gets cramps.

Muscle Cramps occur due tovarious reasons. ese can be de-hydration or excessive loss ofbody fluid due to vigorous exer-cise or activities of the muscle; ora muscle fatigue caused mostlyfrom a long rest period for mus-cles in one position or exertionof muscles leading to injury. Itmay also happen from somekinds of muscle disease. It is notalways necessary for the crampsto attack 'over activated' muscles.Muscle Cramps can attack evenwhen the muscles are at rest ordormant for a very long time. Forinstance, sitting in the same posi-tion for a very long time cancause muscle fatigue and maylater become a cramp. Most ofthe cramps come especially atnight, like the cramps in the calfmuscle. is last for some timetill the bend muscles flex andrelax.

Muscle spasm and MuscleCramp may seem to be the same.But a Muscle Cramp, unlike amuscle spasm, affects only a cer-tain muscle. e affected musclebulges or rolls and hurts till itgets its normal shape. Crampscan thus affect anyone, anytimeand anywhere. Muscle Crampsaffect pregnant women too.Hence as a precaution, their dietis supplemented with calciumand magnesium. Cramps can bekept at bay through exercises, es-pecially stretch exercises, a nutri-tious balanced diet and properwater intake.

In the final contest, BoyneCity pitcher Katie Hoth wasagain as untouchable as theycome on the mound, as shepitched her fih no-hitter of thetournament and fanned 13 bat-ters, but Cheboygan was able totake advantage of some walks asthe two teams traded runs in thefirst inning before Cheboyganwas able to increase their lead.Boyne City played without oneof their 10 players due to illness,and two others played despitefeeling the same ill effects.

Hoth got the game started inthe top of the first, leading offwith a sharp single up the mid-dle. She swiped both second andthird before being drove in onan RBI double by Olivia Looze.

Boyne threatened on a fewmore occasions but was unableto put together a string of hitsthat would allow them to tie ortake the lead. e other scorecame in the fourth inning, asLooze walked, stole both secondand third, before coming in on apassed ball.

Hoth led the team atthe plate with a pair ofsingles and a boomingtriple, while Loozedoubled.

In the opener againstDistrict 11 winner, IronRange out of the UpperPeninsula, Boyne City took ad-vantage of another outstandingpitching performance by KatieHoth.

Hoth welcomed the IronRange team to the State tourna-ment by fanning the first ninebatters she faced, and had a per-fect game going through 4 2/3innings before a seeing eye sin-gle found its way through theright side of the infield, and thebatter was nearly thrown out atfirst by Boyne City’s hard charg-ing right fielder CharleenaCrozier. It was the only hit thatHoth allowed in 67 innings ofwork.

Hoth then settled back in andproceeded to mow down theIron Range line-up as she struckout 17 batters in the contest.

Boyne got started in the sec-ond inning as Makhaylee Fielsmacked a single up the middleand stole her way to third beforecoming across on a passed ball.In the third inning, Hailey Fogoand Kelsey Hubbard bothwalked and scored. Looze had akey bunt that plated Fogo. BoyneCity scored their fourth run ofthe game in the fourth inning asCarrie Butka walked and even-tually scored as she made herway around the base path takingadvantage of a few passed ballsand wild pitches.

Q: My husband and I have been mar-

ried for five years. He has been a great

father to my children from a previous

marriage. Just within the last month,

my 13-year-old has become disre-

spectful toward his step dad, saying

things like, "What are you going to do?

You're not my dad!" What do we do?Juli: e behavior you're describing is

pretty common for a 13-year-old boy,whether or not he's in a blended family.In the early teen years, boys are prone tochallenge authority as their bodies andbrains develop. Oen, this is donethrough boundary-pushing and disre-spectful behavior. e added element ofa step dad may give your son even moregumption to question authority.

Don't fall for the "you're not my dad"trap. Your husband can calmly respond,"You're right that I'm not your biologicaldad. But I care about you and you live inmy house, so I expect you to honor ourrules." In addition to wanting his ownway, your son may also be challengingyour husband's love and commitment tohim. Encourage him not to give up orstep back because of your son's apparentrejection.

Recognize that your son is growingup. Are his siblings younger than him?Maybe you could give him choices andprivileges that they don't have. Let himstay up later, decorate his room, buy hisown clothes with an allowance and

tackle more household responsibilities. However, within this growing auton-

omy, make it clear that he needs to re-spect your rules and authority. Insteadof getting into a power struggle, deter-mine reasonable consequences for disre-spectful or irresponsible behavior.

ere are many excellent resources toguide you through the teen years, in-cluding "Boundaries With Teens" byJohn Townsend and "Preparing for Ado-lescence" by James Dobson.

**

Q: My wife and I have only been mar-

ried for six months, and frankly, we feel

like we just get on each other's nerves

most of the time. I didn't think the

"spark" would die so soon. What

should we do?Jim: What you're experiencing is not

that unusual. Being a newlywed can bescary. No matter how strong the rela-tionship, the loy expectations you hadbefore the wedding rarely match the re-ality aer you say "I do."

My wife, Jean, and I had a rough timeearly in our marriage. I had come from abroken home with no healthy male rolemodels, and Jean was dealing with de-pression. If not for counseling, prayerand friends, we might have withered onthe vine.

You and your wife might considermeeting with a pastor or marriage coun-selor about your frustrations. Doing so

is not an admission that there's some-thing seriously wrong with your rela-tionship. It's a sign of your commitmentto one another and your desire to makeyour marriage the best it can be.

I'd also recommend that you find apair of "marriage mentors." ese areolder couples with years of experienceunder their belts. ey can offer wisecounsel to young couples feeling uncer-tain and overwhelmed.

One note of caution: Even if you andyour wife come from stable homes, don'tseek out your parents as marriage men-tors. Moms and dads don't always havethe objectivity to offer unbiased advice.According to Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott,a marriage mentor is not a parent or aclose friend. e Parrotts also note thatmarriage mentors are not "on call" forevery crisis, they don't have perfect mar-riages themselves, and they aren't know-it-alls. Rather, they're friendlyacquaintances who can model a healthyrelationship and offer insights whenneeded.

With commitment, prayer, and thewise counsel of a couple who have stoodwhere you stand today, there's no reasonwhy you and your wife can't thrive dur-ing these early years of marriage. Godbless you!

What is unsecured

debt?

Dear Dave,What is unsecured debt?Anonymous

Dear Anonymous,is is a great question! You’d be surprised

how many people don’t know the differencebetween “secured” debt and “unsecured”debt.

Unsecured debt means that someoneloaned you money, but they don’t have a lienon anything. Credit cards and student loansare good examples of unsecured debt, because there’s nothingthey can directly repossess if the borrower doesn’t pay. Now, ifyou don’t pay, they can sue you and get a lien against somethingaer they sue you. Lots of times this is done against your in-come by garnishing your wages.

Examples of secured debt would be a car loan or even ahome mortgage. A home mortgage is secured by the home,meaning they take a lien against the home. If you don’t pay,they can foreclose and take the house. It works the same waywith a car loan. If you don’t make your payments, they cancome get the car.

Remember this, too. Unsecured debt typically will be the lastdebt you pay if you’re in financial trouble. In other words, you’dmake your car payment before paying on your student loan,and you’d make your house payment before paying on a creditcard.

In a worst case scenario, like bankruptcy, unsecured debt iswiped off. e creditor gets nothing. But a car loan or housepayment either gets made, or you give up your car or home. It’seasy to see how a lender making a secured loan is in a muchbetter position than one making an unsecured loan, isn’t it?

—Dave

do car titles go to teenagers?

Dear Dave,Our 15-year-old has saved his money, and he’ll buy a car next

year. When he buys it, should the title be put in our names orhis?

Laura

Dear Laura,When my kids hit that age, I put the titles in my name. e

insurance will be much less expensive if you do this. Plus, youdon’t want a 16-year-old under the illusion that they’re in con-trol of their lives.

As their parents, you should love them more than that, be-cause they’re just not ready to be in full control. You want themto be in control of some parts of their lives, so that when theyleave they have a clue about life and don’t boomerang on you.

But at that age, you should be guiding them, and you don’tneed an ownership document to a car confusing them aboutwho’s in charge. I turned the ownership over to my kids whenthey turned 18. In each case, I knew I could trust them, andthey were ready for that level of control.

So, once they’re ready—and you know they’re ready—if it’sgoing to be their car, all the accompanying responsibilityshould be theirs, too!

Decent lake trout fishing inPetoskey between pier and NineMile Point; walleye and bass avail-able in Cheboygan River

GAYLORD -- Anglers continue tocatch trout, salmon and walleye in theGreat Lakes. Catfish, carp and bassfishing is good right now in the riversystems. Catch rates have been goodfor pike. Perch and crappie will mostlikely be found in deeper water.

Charlevoix: North Point remains thebest location to find salmon when fish-ing 70 to 120 feet down in waters 150to 300 feet deep. Lake trout can befound near the bottom. Try a variety ofspoons and flies.

Petoskey: Lake trout fishing was de-cent for those trolling near the bottombetween the pier and Nine Mile Pointin 100 to 150 feet of water. Salmon areslowly starting to show up in the bayhowever the better action could befound between Seven Mile Point andGood Hart when fishing in deep water.

Cheboygan River: Is producingsome walleye and bass.

Burt Lake and Mullett Lake: Wereboth producing good numbers of bassalong with a few walleye.

Rogers City: Fishing was good beforethe water warmed up. Steelhead werehigh and hitting on lead core in 3 to 5colors with spoons in orange, pink,green glow or bright green fished in thetop 30 feet of water. Chinook werecaught in the early morning on greenspoons or anything that glows workedearly or late in the day. e bigger chi-nook were caught about one hour be-fore the sun comes up. Try 55 to 115feet of water and look for the tempera-

ture break. A fair number of Atlanticsalmon were caught along with the oc-casional lake trout or brown trout.

Presque Isle: Chinook and steelheadwere caught straight out of the harbor,north between the lighthouses and offBig Lighthouse Point. Chinook, steel-head, Atlantic salmon, lake trout,brown trout and walleye were caughtoff Stoneport. Try shallow early in themorning and find the thermocline asthe sun comes up. Early morningseems to produce more fish.

Rockport: Trout and salmon werecaught northeast of the launch towardStoneport, and around the NordmeerWreck in 150 feet of water. Salmon adsteelhead were about 60 feet down.Blue and red were hot colors forsalmon.

Question & AnswersAbout Selling Real Estate

By Mike Stark,

Stark realty, inc.

(231) 536-7700

Very few home re-modeling upgradesare good financialinvestments. e

best return on investment oen re-sults from a kitchen upgrade, whichtypically increases the value of ahome by about 75 cents for each dol-lar spent. Swimming pools, backyardlandscaping, entryway flooring, andsimilar upgrades produce an evenlower return on investment for aseller. Why, then, should a home

owner install upgrades before put-ting their home on the market?

Many don’t. ey might sell theproperty “as-is” or offer differenttypes of “credits” or “allowances” thatare really nothing more than priceadjustments that acknowledge out-dated features or a flaw in the prop-erty. Credits for worn-out carpet,“unusual” paint colors, faded kitchencabinets, falling fences, and roofsthat are about to leak are common. Ifthe seller doesn’t have the desire orcash to remove these flaws, buyerswill notice them and lower their offerprice – if they make an offer.

Despite the lack of return on in-vestment in most upgrades, there aretimes when making them could be

the difference between getting offersor not getting offers. Homes thathave not been updated will oenhave problems selling under theseconditions:

• High number of homes for sale• Relatively low number of qual-

ified buyers• Most of the competing homes

in the neighborhood have been up-dated

Offering allowances or credits as-sumes that the buyer will update thehome aer they buy it. Unfortu-nately, most of today’s buyers areputting nearly all of their availablecash into their down payment andhave little le over to invest in up-grades. It is usually easier for a buyer

to pay a little more for an updatedhome and spread the higher costover the life of the mortgage. Yes,some buyers have extra cash to makethe upgrades, but they usually makeup just a small portion of all buyers.

Updating a home prior to puttingit on the market is usually not aboutgetting back the dollars invested, it’sabout generating any reasonable of-fers at all. In a competitive selling en-vironment, homes that are “move-inready” will sell faster and for a higherprice than homes that are not. Ex-ceptions exist, usually because of aproperty’s unique location, but inmost cases the updated home is morecompetitive.

thousands enjoy the

“days of yore”at the

northern MichiganAntique Flywheelers Show

last weekendPhotos by Jim Akans

ABove: Flywheelers Club founder, larry Mathews, leads the daily Parade of Power, a captivating procession of vintage machinery and automobiles.

kids of all ages enjoyed the many activities (and great food) during the show, including a daily parade through the grounds

aboard a “train” pulled by a…you guessed it, vintage garden tractor.

BeloW: While watching the Parade of Power, many attendees munched their way through one of the delicious food offer-

ings available at the show, including pies, ice cream and more from the Flywheelers Pie & Snack Shack.

Atepping into one of the hand-crafted buildings on the Flywheeler’s club grounds was like stepping back in time. here, a group of beautiful ladies are hard

at work spinning yarn.

ABove: the amazing art of blacksmithing was a favorite demonstra-

tion among attendees. other demonstrations of time-honored skills

on the Flywheeler Clubs expansive grounds included a working

sawmill, shingle mill, veneer mill, threshing and corn chopping.

And we gave up this technology for what? this 1914 Advance runs

on steam power (just add water), and was utilized as the power source

for several operations at the show, including running the sawmill.
