    Wood River’s King Louie’s Drive-In at the Roundhouse – Alton Telegraph - August 20, 2022 by Mr HomeBuilder

    WOOD RIVER I was in the mood for the classics.

    You can't get any more classic than Wood River's King Louie's Drive-In, 315 S. 6th St. I went classic everything: King Louie burger, famous French fries, a large homemade root beer and a real strawberry shake. Thanks to longtime server Jamie DeGerlia I ordered a shake. The power of suggestion is a good thing, especially coming from someone as friendly, pretty and bubbly as DeGerlia.

    "It's fun. I enjoy coming here," said DeGerlia, who has worked at King Louie's for 14 years and has a regular following.

    I was excited to realize that King Louie's has homemade root beer. I always got this beverage at the old Mini Corral, when I lived nearby, about a half a mile from the Corral in Alton's Milton neighborhood when I first started working in the city. I moved to Alton in spring 2006, not liking the commute from the Maplewood neighborhood in St. Louis.

    I had a great lunch from King Louie Monday that I took to Wood River's iconic Roundhouse, 633 N. Wood River Ave., just four minutes away, and ate it under the gazebo, in perfect weather. You can eat curbside with a tray, inside or take out at King Louie's.

    Situated in the main front entrance to the Roundhouse, from the gazebo you can clearly see the unusual shape of the building, for a building, and Central Park's playground across the way.

    The classic King Louie burger (which you can order in a double or triple) comes with lettuce, tomato, mayo, pickle and onion, to which I added a slice of American cheese and ketchup. Sure, I had ketchup packets with the fries, but who wants to mess up their amazing loaded burger by lifting the top bun. The all-beef patty is slightly oversized, but the bun totally fits on top of it all. It's a delight for the taste buds that doesn't fall apart.

    King Louie's French fries are the best! They were super hot in a good way and I started eating them right out of the classic brown paper sack while driving to the Roundhouse. No salt, no ketchup needed. They are the perfect French fry, in my humble opinion.

    The homemade root beer had a definite "kick," as in I could taste the caramel-ly undertone, which is my favorite kind of root beer just scrumptious, and goes great with the fries. I felt like I was literally "At The Hop."

    The icing on the proverbial cake was the strawberry shake, because it's made with real strawberries, a surprising treat.

    Night Out in the park – lebanonlocalnews.com - August 20, 2022 by Mr HomeBuilder

    By Sarah BrownLebanon Local

    Visitors flocked to Academy Square for Lebanons annual National Night Out on Aug. 2. It was the second year the Lebanon police and fire departments included a Robber Duck scavenger hunt for the kids. Fifty rubber duckies were hidden throughout the park; 49 were decorated in police attire, but whoever found the one dressed as a robber won a prize.

    This was the first year National Night Out hosted a doughnut-eating contest as a fund raiser for Furniture Share. Lebanon police, Linn County deputies and community members raced to see who could consume a dozen doughnuts. Many dropped out of the competition early until David Noble was left for the win with only three donuts left. He earned bragging rights and a donut-mug-handcuff trophy. Two runners-up earned themselves a doughnut trophy.

    Also at the event, the Optimist Club held a special dedication ceremony for Shawn Turrentine who passed away last year. A bench was placed in his name at the gazebo that Turrentine helped install, and a set of balloons were released in his memory.

    The purpose of NNO, Community Policing Officer Dala Johnson said, is to bring law enforcement and the community together.

    We are here to partner with the community, she said. We need to have that positive reinforcement from both sides. This is a way for our community to see the other side of our officers.

    She proved her point by noting that Police Chief Frank Stevenson was seen scarfing down doughnuts and getting soaked in the dunk tank by children.

    Gaspipe Theatre Company bringing Shakespeare to life with ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ – Sunbury Daily Item - August 20, 2022 by Mr HomeBuilder

    LEWISBURG William Shakespeares A Midsummer Nights Dream will come to life in Hufnagle Park, thanks to a local theater company.

    Gaspipe Theatre Company will perform the classic comedy at 7 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday as part of its Shakespeare in the Park program.

    A Midsummer Nights Dream is kind of a tradition for Gaspipe, said Stefan Eisenhower, director. It was the first play we did for Shakespeare in the Park in 2000 and its been revisited every five years.

    The play, published in the 17th century, is about two Athenian couples who run away to the forest, an amateur group of actors rehearsing for a production and a mischievous fairy named Puck, whose spells create a love triangle among the Athenians and makes the fairy queen fall in love with Bottom, an actor who has been magicked so he unknowingly has the head of a donkey.

    In the theater industry, A Midsummers Nights Dream is a widely performed play and Eisenhower said each production has a way to make the show unique to them.

    Gaspipe sticks close to the source text, but we do put a little spin on it through costumes and the set, he said. This year has a slight steampunk theme but tries not to distract from the original material.

    In addition to its history with the Gaspipe Theatre Company, A Midsummer Nights Dream was chosen because it has a large cast and has a relatively fair distribution of lines, so more actors get a chance to speak.

    The play lets new and old actors try Shakespeare and be introduced to it, Eisenhower said.

    Andrew Shaffer, who plays Bottom and has performed in all of Gaspipes Shakespeare in the Park productions, said the play has a lot of appeal at different levels.

    Theres a love triangle that turns into zany stuff, theres fairies, magic and music, but a lot of intricate word play and historical references, he said. Shakespeare survived for so long because its entertaining.

    Eisenhower noted the cast has a wide range of age and experience.

    He said one of his favorite things as a director is watching his cast go deep into their roles and find all the little pieces they can pull from the text to affect their portrayals.

    Even actors who are familiar with their roles learn something new about their characters.

    Shaffer has played Bottom an actor magicked to have a donkeys head and is the recipient of fairy queen Titanias affection six times total.

    Shaffer is still finding new things about Bottoms character, Eisenhower said.

    Shaffer first portrayed Bottom in 1999 at Lewisburg Area High School and has returned to the role every time Gaspipe performs the play.

    Bottom gets to be the clown, and be silly and wear the donkey head and sing, Shaffer said. Hes a really fun character.

    Hes also performed in every Shakespeare in the Park.

    Shakespeare is classic for a reason, Shaffer said.

    This years production also marks a return to Gaspipes outdoor roots after a year off in 2020 due to COVID and a relocation in 2021 due to construction at Hufnagle Park. A Midsummer Nights Dream will be performed at the gazebo, a familiar location for the company.

    We didnt have Shakespeare in the Park in 2020 because of the pandemic, but we called it Taming of the flu, Eisenhower said with a laugh.

    Typically, the company performs each night of the show at different parks in the Valley, but opted to do all three performances at Hufnagle this year.

    Were glad to be back, said Shaffer.

    Where the chickens and a wacky barmaid rule the roost – Kent Online - August 20, 2022 by Mr HomeBuilder

    It was bright sunshine at the back of the pub and a small collection of good looking chickens were scratching about and clucking contentedly. A much larger group of teachers delighted to be on their summer holidays were vying for the best tables and cackling considerably louder.

    There is quite a large, well-maintained, outside space at the Queens Head in Kingsnorth, near Ashford, and I can understand why it would be popular with both locals and visitors.

    Inside there is a large room on the right hand side of the pub devoted almost entirely to pool or darts and two lucky lads enjoying a game of arrows had the entire space to themselves.

    We headed beyond this and into the main bar at the front of the pub. There was a Sussex Best on offer, but always keen to try something a little different, I opted for a pint of Razor Back, a 3.8% bitter from the Ringwood Brewery.

    Eggs from the chickens were also on sale at the bar at 1 for six or 1.50 for a dozen but they were quite miniscule, mini eggs if you will.

    There are fairy lights festooned everywhere you look, probably in an effort to offset the black patterned wallpaper.

    The Razor Back describes itself as an exceptionally refreshing craft ale, Im slightly suspicious of the oft-used craft tag and would describe it as an average beer with a toffee smell and a disappointing aftertaste.

    Theres a chaotic and slightly haphazard feel to everything behind the bar but it just adds further to the charm of this place Id describe the barmaid as hectically efficient.

    A wild-looking fellow with flowing white hair and a beard to match breezed into the bar and then disappeared out front to hose everything down (I hasten to add, this was pre-hosepipe ban).

    He shouted hello gorgeous to the busy barmaid, dropped her off a newspaper for later and then went off to collect glasses. Apparently this does his own thing Aussie is happy to help out with a whole variety of tasks in exchange for the odd beer.

    A good deal of tradition has been retained here, old fashioned towels on the bar, beer mats on tables and Maggie May by Rod Stewart pumping out through the speakers.

    Mind you, when the song changed to Joan Jets I Love Rock and Roll we were given a real treat as the barmaid launched into her own version of I Love Sausage Rolls at the top of her voice.

    Various teachers trooped in at intervals to order drinks before scuttling back outside with the chickens and Mrs SD and I began a new game.

    Isnt it interesting how you can tell immediately the year groups they teach just by the way they dress and the way they speak the difference between reception staff and those who tackle Year 6 is remarkable and very easy to spot.

    Theres plenty of CCTV around the bar, usually a sign it can get a little lively, although the pub was very relaxed when we were in and folks are left to their own devices vaping at the bar, for example, is encouraged.

    The gents is found beyond the black wallpapered wall and features back-to-back urinals, although the basin is even smaller than my en-suite at home.

    The toilets had obviously been cleaned recently and were fresh smelling. Mrs SD delivered a similarly upbeat review of the ladies facilities.

    Back in our seats at the high table at the front of the pub we both began to feel we were being watched. Nearing the end of our visit the feeling grew to the point we could sense the eyes burning into us. I checked my flies and Mrs SD made sure nothing had dripped down her blouse but everything seemed fine.

    It was only as we left we realised what was going on, barely had our cheeks slipped off our stools and two locals were seated and discussing Man Uniteds latest disaster. Little did we know we were so early into the pub wed taken two locals favoured seats.

    This is a big, well-spaced pub that is perfectly capable of hosting a very large outdoor party, a very decent pub games night and still leave the front bar free for the locals.

    I enjoyed the down-to-earth approach, with more than a dash of chaos thrown in, created by the staff and can recommend popping in for a pint of Harveys should you feel inclined.

    Queens Head, Ashford Road, Kingsnorth, Ashford TN23 3EN

    Decor: Its not often Id forgive fairy lights in this quantity but in amongst these slightly quirky, down-to-earth decorations they work pretty well. And, the outside area more than makes up for the slightly dark interior. ***

    Drink: The pubs a winner for me and Im sure there are times when the guest ales are much better, but neither the beer, nor wine, was wonderful when we were in. **

    Price: Id think twice before I spent another 4.80 on a Razor Back but the Harveys wasnt much cheaper at 4.60 and a Camden Hells is 5.35. The wine was okay and more reasonable at 6.50, but the crisps were 1.40 a bag. **

    Staff: Wacky and willing to get involved in any conversation, Id describe the busy barmaid as the mainstay of the Queens Head and she marshalled the chaos admirably. ****

    Gazebo on the way out at Bayside Park – Fort Myers Beach Talk - February 20, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Some people like the gazebo at Bayside Park, which will be removed under the town's current plans for the park. Neighboring businesses support removing the gazebo but don't support the town's plans to put a stage there. / Photo by Nathan Mayberg

    Fort Myers Beach is going through a lot of changes and Bayside Park is no different. Gaining consensus on the towns plans for overhauling the park has proven to be a challenge.

    For the two businesses on either side of Bayside Park off Old San Carlos Boulevard, the town is headed in the right direction though they differ on some aspects of the overhauls.

    The town council has given the go-ahead to allow its engineering and design consultants DRMP to send out the Bayside Park plans for bid. Those plans, as drawn up by DRMP with input from town staff and the town council, includes shade sails, a new grassy area, some replacement of trees and removal of trees, a new stage, veterans memorial tribute and rain garden.

    A longstanding gazebo at the center of the park near the rail overlooking Matanzas Pass would be removed for the stage. The neighboring businesses support the removal of the gazebo but not the replacement of the stage.

    That stage, big enough to hold about three people, is out of place, said Nervous Nellies co-owner Tyler Lemmer. He said a stage would only be used a few times a year, not enough to justify the cost. The restaurant borders the park on one side.

    However, Lemmer said he didnt support keeping the gazebo.

    I think it should be removed. I dont want anything in its place, Lemmer said. Its a park. Lets open it up. Lemmer said the gazebo attracts homeless people.

    Snug Harbor co-owner Peter Ennis, whose restaurant borders the other side of the park, shared Lemmers view regarding the stage and gazebo. He said the park is not a big area to begin with.

    Ennis said the gazebo was outdated and doesnt have the nice appearance that Bayside park should have.

    He doesnt support plans by some on the council to install shade trees at the park, which he said would block the view of the water.

    Fort Myers Beach Mayor Ray Murphy said the gazebo, which is younger than the town, will be coming down. I dont know how much use it gets, Murphy said.

    Murphy said he recently met with the two neighboring businesses and said he supports their desire to merge the walking paths along the rails overlooking the bay at the rear of the park. Murphy said some work would need to be done on the seawall and docks to make it happen.

    It will make a very nice walk for people, Murphy said.

    I dont think there is much difference in what everyone wants, Murphy said.

    Chris Lloyd, of Fort Myers Beach, said he didnt like the towns plans for Bayside Park and the gazebo. Its a little bang for a lot of buck, he said. He said a stage was preferable to the gazebo but wasnt worthy of the cost. I think the gazebo is fine, Lloyd said.

    Lloyd said if there were more events requiring a stage at Bayside Park than the stage could be justified. This space is so small, how many people are going to be able to utilize it?

    For David Bickes, of Michigan, the plans to remove the gazebo are horrible. Its a great place to hang out. Bickes said he and his family have been visiting Fort Myers Beach for the last 10 years and enjoys the gazebo. I love it, he said.

    I hate to see it go, Bickes said.

    Lemmer said he would like to see a small-scale fountain return to Bayside Park. The old fountain has issues due to the seawall leaking, he said.

    Lemmer and Ennis want to move the veterans memorial from the front of the park with the rain garden (where it is currently proposed to go) to alongside the walking path near the back rails overlooking the bay.

    Lemmer said the towns new plans are moving in the right direction.

    Ennis said he is fine with the towns plans for shade sails overlooking the park, along with a new grassy area to replace trees at the center of the park which are currently equipped with lights.

    Ennis also wants the park and general area to be lit up more. He said the installation of turf would give it a nice park feel.

    Cost estimates for the project depend on which features are ultimately chosen as well as the final design and engineering fees for DRMP.

    Town of Fort Myers Beach Manager Roger Hernstadt said We are developing specifications for a bid to replace the gazebo with a stage. Town council will make the decision to proceed or not when the contract award is up for a vote.

    According to the towns contracts with DRMP from 2020, they are to be paid $190,700 for the design of the Bayside Park project plus $1,000 for design meetings and public relations. Permitting costs are expected to cost another $6,000 for the firm along with more than $8,000 for the stormwater portion.

    The contract also calls for additional charges depending on the time it takes to approve the designs.

    Fort Myers Beach Communications Coordinator Jennifer Dexter stated Thursday that DRMP is to be paid $242,208 for its work on Bayside Park at 90% completion. The total project has an estimated cost of $524,000 at 90% completion before bid.

    Person of interest found in crash that damaged Mecca Twp. gazebo – WKBN.com - February 20, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    It happened overnight in Trumbull County

    by: Nadine Grimley

    MECCA TWP., Ohio (WKBN) A driver in Trumbull County crashed into the gazebo at the Mecca Circle Sunday, causing thousands of dollars in damage.

    It happened just before midnight where Route 88 meets Route 46.

    Authorities said witnesses reported the driver had a gun as he ran away.

    911 Caller: Someone just ran into the gazebo in Mecca Circle. Like, their car is in the gazebo!

    Kirby Saum lives nearby. He heard the crash and thought it was a garbage truck.

    It usually comes on Monday morning at 6 oclock, but it aint 6 oclock. Its like 12ish. Im going towait a minute thats too loud, Saum said.

    Township officials are warning people to stay away from the gazebo until permanent repairs can be made.

    Mecca Township Trustee Dan Galbincea was out Monday trying to secure the structure.

    Im just trying to support it for the winter. Its not safe, he said.

    Snow covered debris was scattered across the grass. Galbincea said there will be a lot of work to do to repair it.

    Theres a couple of posts missing. There are some picnic tables missing. A bike rack has seen better days over there, Galbincea said.

    Investigators with the Trumbull County Sheriffs Office said they made contact with a person of interest.

    No arrest has been made, but investigators are consulting with a prosecutor on possible charges.

    Florida celebrates sea level rise planning tool after years behind the curve – Tampa Bay Times - February 20, 2021 by Mr HomeBuilder

    One year after the Florida Legislature passed a bill considered its first direct confrontation of climate change in years, the state is moving closer to making the policys promises a reality.

    The Department of Environmental Protection is crafting a rule that will lay out a standard for considering sea level rise before starting construction on some publicly funded projects along the coast. It is supposed to take effect July 1, and agency officials said this week they aim to hone a draft version by April 1.

    The whole idea is to raise the floor, and the floor on planning was absolutely nothing, said Jos Javier Rodrguez, a former state senator from Miami who pushed the original legislation.

    Department of Environmental Protection secretary Noah Valenstein said in a meeting last month that the measure will mark the first time Florida sends a uniform signal across the state of what sea level rise projections should be used over what time periods.

    The rule will require Sea Level Impact Projection (or SLIP) studies to be finished before builders break ground on projects that receive state funding and fall in specific areas especially vulnerable to flooding near the shore. It will cover structures like houses, parking garages, piers, water treatment plants and bridges, but not smaller items like gazebos and beach walkovers, or seawalls and breakwaters meant to combat erosion.

    The impact studies are supposed to look forward to possible flooding over the lifespan of a project, often several decades, using a sea level rise estimate developed by federal scientists. During a meeting Tuesday, state officials indicated they would require an intermediate-high projection for how much local sea levels could rise, slightly lower than some environmentalists wanted but also not among the most conservative scenarios.

    An engineering firm is creating an online tool that will allow developers to plug in their project information and produce the studies. It could provide a ranking of future flood risk, data on potential flooding, along with suggestions of ways to make a project more resilient. The rule will not force agencies, cities or counties to pursue whatever is deemed the safest route.

    Theres no requirement to implement a particular alternative that may be suggested, said Whitney Gray, administrator of the Florida Resilient Coastlines program, during the meeting this week. This is not a regulatory tool.

    Rodrguez, a Democrat who lost a bid for re-election last year, said he designed the bill to gain support in a Legislature historically averse to discussing climate change. We are so far behind the curve from where were starting, he said.

    He modeled it after the National Environmental Policy Act, which requires project managers to study environmental impacts and identify alternative designs, but not necessarily to take the least harmful route.

    The rule will require studies to be posted on the Department of Environmental Protections website for at least 10 years, and for 30 days before groundbreaking can commence. The state will not solicit public comments or hold public hearings on each individual study, said Weesam Khoury, a spokeswoman for the Department of Environmental Protection.

    Rodrguez said he hopes that requiring the research and posting it online affords accountability, and that residents will pressure elected officials who back risky investments of their tax dollars.

    Environmental groups like the measure but have offered some critiques. State officials have revised the draft language in response to feedback and will continue to do so over the next several weeks.

    The Environmental Defense Fund in Florida submitted suggestions in a letter last month, including a request that the rule make clear how studies should look at environmental risks outside damage to buildings, like changes to water quality and erosion.

    The rule feels more like an anti-flooding rule rather than a sea level rise impacts tool, said Elizabeth Fata Carpenter, a staff attorney at the Everglades Law Center, which shares the concern.

    The Law Center also wants officials to demand a longer wait period before construction than 30 days to give developers time to consider alternative designs.

    Because the state is beginning to take steps, we want to make sure that the step they do take is of high quality, Fata Carpenter said. Its a step in the right direction, but its not a very big step.
