Dual-Purpose Sophisticated Safari Nursery
My Room
Name: Baby Boy Allen (arriving soon!)
Location: Brookline, MA
Inspiration for our son's nursery came from my trips to Kenya as a child. I envisioned a sophisticated, safari-travel theme to enable an easier transition from a nursery to a toddler's room. Because we live in a condo, this room had to be multi-functional as both a nursery and guest bedroom.
To start the room, I found a spin on the classic Jenny Lind crib. The black crib, along with tan and white crib bedding from Etsy, created a crisp and clean esthetic with old world charm. To hang above the crib, I splurged on the gorgeous "My World" map from Petit Collage. The accent colors for the nursery came from the saturated tones of the map.
To continue the theme, I wanted to include pictures my friend and I took at on recent safari trip during graduate school. These pictures added real-life safari images, while providing me with a bit of nostalgia. The deep green tones in the pictures blend well with the sage green of the curtains, book shelf, and chandelier.
To accessorize the room, I found large burlap safari animals at Home Goods as well as a wooden lamp reminiscent of a camp stool. Another great addition to the room was an antique trophy cup given to us by my mother. I also used my antique African masks purchased in Kenya, to add visual interest to the wall across from the guest bed.
Overall, we couldn't be happier with the finished room. Now, it's time for our son to arrive!
Thanks, Jessica! Well done!

Wow. I think this looks nice but it is absolutely not baby-friendly! How are you supposed to use that changing table with squirming, kicking legs knocking over all the accessories? And what about when baby starts pulling the masks off the wall and getting tangled up in all the decorations? I must be jaded with an 8-month old who is now into absolutely everything :)
That's exactly what I thought! It's a beautiful room, no doubt, but it couldn't be less practical. I'd love to see the state of the room again in a year, after a baby has actually lived in it!
Wow, wild!
I have to echo the other posters. You have some great ideas and the colors are wonderful. The low-key safari vibe is very cool. I also appreciate anyone who cane make a nursery out of an existing functional room!
But if you're planning on the baby spending time in here beyond sleeping or being changed, you may want to pare down on some of the accessories. A newborn wouldn't be squirmy enough for this room, but lookout in a few months! The changing area would have to be sparse if you don't want your little one grabbing and knocking over things on a constant basis. Books will be pulled out of the bookcase and pictures on low tables will be knocked down too. This can totally be a functional nursery in the beginning stages, but just keep in mind that you will probably have to make adjustments as the kid gets older and more active. Good luck!
Please make sure to mount that changing pad to the wall or table.
Love the Boston/Frenchie book ends! Where'd you get them???
I love the chandelier, the black crib and wooden mirror. Super cute. But as the mother of a new baby, the crib bumper and those ties are freaking me out.
I think this is one of the most sophisticated and charming nurseries I have ever seen. It is very difficult to be creative in such a small space. I have to disagree with a couple of the previous posts. I think most of the accessories are properly placed and that there is a nice open space for the little one to play. This is a room with character and endless points of interest for a child.
As a mother of a toddler I feel stressed just imaging how much quickly my child would destroy that room. If I was asked to change a diaper of any age baby there I'd grab the changing pad and throw it on the bed, too much for little arms and legs to knock over where it is. And yes, the bumper ties seem dangerous to me. But overall I really like the vibe, I'd just move everything higher if I was designing it.
But children have a way of teaching parents. My friend told me this story about having an eighteen month old and visiting her brother with a 5 month old. He had an alphabetized DVD collection which her son proceeded to dump. Her brother was furious. One month later his child was the one dumping it and he called to apologize ;-)
Beautiful, if not very practical. My 10.5 month old would LOVE that changing table...so many fun things to hurl across the room!
I'm not sure how well having a shared guest room/nursery will work out functionally. If your baby ends up sleeping in his room every night at some point, I fear you might be in for a rough time trying to get him to sleep in your room when guests come to stay. Our daughter co-slept for the first six months, and after transitioning her to her own room, it's now virtually impossible to get her to stay asleep for the night in our bed or in her travel crib in the same room as us.
However, that bed will be great for you during nights of broken sleep! Also, we love our Jenny Lind crib.
I hope the bookshelf is anchored.

Alison Warner said although Bel Air High School is "fortunate" to have a state-of-the-art building, she has had to go to Staples and ask for help buying supplies for students.
Others, meanwhile, continued to press for repairs to Youth's Benefit Elementary School in Fallston, among other facilities.
Laura Runyeon said the facility has failing septic systems and students are occasionally asked not to flush toilets. They also cannot assemble as an entire school community.
Danielle Spagler, as well as her son, Nick Spagler, and Fran Dowres, asked for a new playground at Prospect Mill Elementary School.
Danielle Spagler said the playground was built in 1973, is "older than I am" and is used by four classes, but only has four swings and a small climbing apparatus.
"The children have resorted to playing on a nearby hill for entertainment," she said.
A few people were concerned about how the meeting was conducted.
George Curry said he thinks the government should be willing to listen to each resident's full remarks, criticizing the limit of three minutes per speaker, even if representing a group.
Curry then said he was "getting tired" of waiting for resources and of having the educational system be a "pawn or pinata" for political or personal reasons.
He said despite getting increasingly less money year after year, teachers still do the best job they can for their students.
Despite the flood of teachers, several residents also asked the county to keep funding organizations like the library system or the Arc.
Al Morey noted the creator of the multi-branch system in Harford would have wanted the library to keep being funded.

I've sort of been expecting someone to blame schools for introducing teenagers to the dangerous world of eating disorders. After all, parents are more than willing to blame MTV for teen pregnancy and Facebook for "letting" their kids cyberbully. But the XO Jane article titled "Health Class Taught Me How to Have an Eating Disorder" was still a tough read.
I once was that teenage girl sitting in a classroom learning that some girls lose weight by throwing up everything they eat. And yes, I would go on to battle bulimia for many years, despite the warnings that it was one of the absolute worst ways to attack the battle of the bulge. But I'm still not buying the argument that talking to our kids about tough topics is the wrong way to go. It sounds like a cop-out.
Jane writer Jessica recalls a movie that kicked off an eating disorder unit, detailing all the dangerous -- but different -- ways people could lose weight:
Had one of us already been suffering from anorexia, this may have served as a much needed wake-up call and a reason to reach out for help. Unfortunately, for those of us who hadn't yet considered slimming down, the movie ended up serving not so much as a warning but an instruction manual on how to develop an unhealthy relationship with food.
It's true, teachers unwittingly gave me a quick how-to on throwing up my food. But that doesn't make it their fault. I was bulimic because I was a depressed teenager with an unhealthy attitude toward food and my body. I would have figured out how to stick a finger down my throat eventually.
As a mother, I have found myself falling into the trap of blaming other people for presenting some of the more touchy truths of life in a setting meant for kids. Just yesterday, I huddled on my couch fighting off a bug my 6-year-old brought home from first grade and making my way through a pile of YA fiction that had accumulated on my bedside table. First book: Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have) by Sarah Mylnowski, a fun read made considerably less so by my vision of my daughter one day taking in the tales of virginity lost and parents lied to. I had to remind myself that it was A.) just a book and B.) a book that detailed some things that kids really do. It's up to parents to raise kids NOT to do these things, and one book isn't going to undo years of parenting.
Unfortunately, we have a tendency to put our mom hats on, then pull them down tight over our eyes. Instead of acknowledging that there's a lot of tough, awful stuff that kids deal with today, and it's better our kids learn about them in safe, nurturing environments where they can hash out their feelings both for and against, we convince ourselves that our kids will not encounter these things ... ever.
News flash! Your kids will more than likely face the following at some point:
So what's better? To let them walk into it blind? Or to risk that a few teens will encounter them a little earlier in a safe environment?
Image via US Army Africa/Flickr
Eating disorders and cutting, two things that some are sure would never happen if kids didn't get the idea from some outside sourse.
The reality is that a few kids are going to have these problems anyway and educating everyone about them makes it so their freinds can notice when these things start and alert someone so they don't spiral out of control.
heck no I do not want DD learning about eating disorders in school, she is 11 and has enough self conscious in her head already.
Sorry, but I don't buy that school made them have an eating disorder. Healthy body image and nutrition starts at home. All teens go through a phase where they are concerned about their weight. And why don't all of them have eating disorders? Because their parents/family take the time to instill a positive self esteem and positive body image before high school. And eating disorders rarely have to do with a person's weight, anyway. In many cases, it's the response to something going on in the home or in peer groups.
Thats how i always felt about the dare program. Even being in 5th grade it was like hmm there are these things in my house that i'm not supposed to get high with? why didnt i ever consider doing this before? I dont think later drug use could be contributed to this but it definately didnt work as a deterent.

While taking Elementary Chinese, I had the opportunity to practice traditional Chinese calligraphy. This was my absolute favorite part of class because it shows that there is not only a difference in the way words are written (characters versus letters), but also a difference in the method of how the language is written. Calligraphy is a traditional part of Chinese history and culture, and being able to practice it myself made me respect that aspect of the Chinese culture even more. It is no easy feat to write using a calligraphy brush!

Magellan Project Description
This summer the Franklin Award provided me the opportunity to become a research associate at the Council on Hemispheric Affairs. During my time in Washington, D.C., I attended Congressional hearings, met with diplomats, and published articles on Latin America.
How will your Magellan Project help with your plans after graduation?
Without a doubt, I have improved my writing skills and increased my knowledge in my field of study. My time in Washington has also opened my eyes to the "real world". From time management and work ethic to paying bills and commuting, I have learned as much this summer as I could an entire semester of classes.

State Troopers and rescue crews found the body of a man struck by a vehicle Saturday night.
They said it happened at Mill Creek on Pine Island Circle and Highway 79, north of Guntersville just after 9:00 Saturday night.
Crews pulled the body of 45-year-old Keith Willoughby, a retired military man and Madison County resident, out of the water early Sunday afternoon.
Witnesses said Willougby's fishing equipment was thrown across the road when he was hit by a Jeep Cherokee driven by 51-year-old Robert Randal Sporleder of Scottsboro.
Willougby's friend Ronald Rice said they fished together all the time. He stumbled upon the accident when he saw the emergency vehicles in the area where they usually went fishing.
State Troopers continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash, but do not expect charges to be filed against Sporleder.

The people were nice and the room was good.
TV didn't work Phone is not near the bed Not a lot of towels
Very near restaurants
No refrigerator
Location, and prices were near perfect.
furniture in our was broken, our bathroom door was not leveled with the floor, and I think the television was limited to a few local channels.
No fridge, smell of the room and old furniture
Anything is great!
Bed mattress uncomfortable...
Staffs super friendly. ... great location if you don't mind to ride on a bus. .. it's very convenient to hop in a bus to the strip. ... i just booked another stay in October. ...
A little but nothing major. ....
Most things are good clean good location Good TV cable
Cant say much didn't like good value
Rooms were big and clean! New towels everyday! Very nice stuff! Would go there again! Close to the "strip"!
It was very loud during night! Area isn't very safe! Strange people!
Price, clean linens, clean bathroom, free wi-fi
noise level from room next door but staff took care of it quickly
Beds were awesome, so sick of hard beds!
Price, size of room, free parking, drapes blocked almost all light, A/C worked well. Staff were good.
Only one ice machine, mattress is old, general condition is somewhat rundown, only one washcloth provided. Wi-fi signal was very weak sometimes.
The room was clean and the beds were comfortable
The one ice machine wasn't working
Price, parking, air conditioning
Didn't know that rooms did not come with a fridge unless it was requested during booking process.
understaffed (4th of July weekend). Property is shared with very busy wedding chapel.No refrigerator.Much stomping on ceiling from upper floor.
Everything about this place was great.
this was the second time we stayed and this time we were in a more spacious and more updated room. the pillows were very comfortable.
smell of perfumed cleaning agents
Location, no outside sound,front desk service,licor store at hotel, atention from janitor woman.
No wi-fi very few tv channels
Clean and good location
Ice machines were all broken
Staff was disorganized. Air conditioning unit out in first room assigned. Driveway in back was scary to navigate. Area was seedy; I had some safety worry. Nothing occurred, however. Worst experience: I called at 11AM to say I was checking out. I left room to get my car close for transferring luggage. My access card did not work when I returned to door. Maid who had been to my room earlier (and told to come back later) was nearby but would not open the door for me. She said she would lose her job if she did. I had to go to the office. Finally, a clerk ended staff conversation and said he had reestablished the access. Since I was leaving in minutes, i checked out. The woman working the desk shuffled the same stack of registrations half a dozen times, finally deciding my paperwork was lost. She then laboriously printed out the screen shot of my registration and payment details. I returned to the room--it was a bit of a distance in 90+ heat. My card did not work. I went to the room where the maid was cleaning, called the desk, insisted they inform the maid to let me in, put the phone down and called her to speak to the desk clerk. The desk clerk had hung up, and the maid did not believe me that the person had said okay. I told her to call the office. Instead she called her supervisor. I was so exasperated that I lost my temper with her--and the supervisor. I went to the phone again, called the clerk who said it was really re-activated this time, but I said I wanted the maid to open it because I didn't trust him, stay on the line. In the meantime the maid had gone to my room with the card and successfully opened the door--the clerk had actually activated it this time. But wait, there's more. As I was actually entering my car, the maintenance man arrived and told me that anytime the desk records that someone is checking out, the computer immediately deactivates the access card.
The staff was really friendly and very helpful and knowledgeable about the area (probably the only good part about our stay). It's also in a good location of town that is close to the sights and feels safe.
We stayed in a bigger room, and still it only had one sink and hardly any space from my group (4). Beds were hard spring mattresses and the A/C units hardly pumped out any cold air let alone any air at all. Especially for the price, it wasn't very pleasant.
AC was not working. They didnt had any room for me to change and I had to wait for another day before I was transfered to a different room
location, friendliness of staff
There was no refrigerator in the room.

Thanks...I actually *do* spend a fair amount of time working from the model (there's some older examples on my website, although I haven't updated that part in about a year.) My goal with these, though, was to try and capture the psychology and narrative of a particular scene---basically, to get the story and not worry quite so much about how well the forms read.
I suppose going forward I should put more time in and try to buff all the forms out a bit more.
Giacomo, your pages look clean and interpretative and I like them. Your goal to get comfortable by trying to capture the narrative is already showing. Just keep up and enjoy. Great thing about all this is that you are challenging your brain and constantly practicing.
As previously mentioned, sharpen your eye for the facial features.

Ted Haggard is the founding pastor of St. James Church in Colorado Springs, CO, the second church he and his wife, Gayle, have started during their 34-year marriage. Their first church, New Life Church, enjoyed 22 years of consecutive double digit growth, primarily through conversions, and grew from 20 people meeting in the basement of their home to 14,000 people meeting on a $50 million campus. Ted served as president of the 30,000,000 member National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) from 2003-2006, where he became a public figure representing evangelicalism in the press and with world leaders. In 2006, Ted resigned from all leadership positions confessing to personal moral failure. He confessed, resigned, repented, and submitted to church authorities for a two-year period of healing and restoration.
Ted and Gayle rebuilt their marriage and emerged a strong couple and family. Four years later, in the summer of 2010, Ted and Gayle started St. James Church in their barn before purchasing an office building and auditorium for weekly services. Earlier that year, Gayle released a New York Times best-selling book titled "Why I Stayed", in which she gave a candid account of their trials for the previous four years and why she remained committed to her marriage. Their post 2006 story has been extensively covered by Oprah Winfrey and Larry King, and documented on HBO, TLC, and ABC. All of these documentaries can be viewed at saintjameschurch.com under the media tab. Ted and Gayle live in Colorado Springs, where four of their five children also live and have their homes. Their oldest son is attending Harvard, Kennedy School of Government, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Home Remedies For Upset Stomach
A Natural Treatment for Upset Stomach
Have you gotten a dozen distinct theories on how to fix a health problem and ever mentioned it in a room full of well-meaning folks? If you mention that you have an upset stomach, you might hear everything from "drink ginger tea" to "sniff a bar of grapefruit soap." Though you may feel like nearly all the ideas that are offered are suspicious, many kinds of natural remedies can actually work. Not to mention it's always wise to try natural means to remedy your bodies ailments unless requiring medical attention.
List of Upset Stomach Remedies
The greatest treatment for an upset stomach changes from one person to another, as every body is different, so it pays to attempt them all and see which ones work for you. If you use just one at a time, decide to attempt these and consider how they make you feel. Remember, what works for someone mightn't work for you.
- Carbonated beverages. This is an all-natural treatment for a dreadful way to help it become worse or upset stomach that is either an excellent way. Some find that their tummies settle, while some find that it contributes even more to bloating.
- Getting more sleep. One of many leading causes of upset stomach is stress that is simple. Do what you can to eliminate the stress — cut out as much pressure as possible, get more sleep, eat healthier foods and try to find ways to alter your life so that stress becomes less of an issue.
- Ginger and cinnamon have properties that are soothing, and placing them in hot tea helps. The tea's heat warms up your stomach increasing digestion abilities.
- Try Lemon water before a meal. Having a beverage of lemon water before a meal can stimulate digestive juices which aid in digestion.
- The more water you drink, the more hydrated you'll be, raising all mobile functions.
– Having ginger tea is among typically the most popular natural home remedies for Upset Stomach in children in addition to adults. Additionally, it helps to relieve stomach pain.Nevertheless, ginger shouldn't be consumed in surplus in case of gallstones or heartburn. Other herbal teas like that of peppermint, cinnamon, chamomile etc are also advantageous in curing this issue naturally.
– Consuming a mixture of lemon juice and honey in water is the most straightforward home remedy for Stomach Upset associated symptoms of nausea and acidity.

We've got some good news and some bad news. The good news: among primates, humans are packing some penile power - we've got bigger man-hammers than any of our closest relatives (Gorillas actually have ding-dongs of only a few inches, which explains a lot about King Kong). But when compared to other animals, we're woefully inadequate. Here are ten wizard staffs to make you feel bad about yourself (we don't mention horses, because c'mon people, let's think outside of the giant animal penis box a little bit).
The Barnacle
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
If you were an immobile creature unable to pursue mates outside of your immediate reach, it would make sense to have an accordion-like retractable hand-slapper that could explore the world for you, right? Well that's just how the barnacle rolls. Not only can they make new penises (because they break sometimes - awesome!), barnacles can grow their tallywackers to be 5-10 times their own miniscule size.
The Blue Whale
Photo Courtesy of Istockphoto.com
No surprise here, the biggest animal to ever exist on planet Earth also has the most fearsome meat-trident (we suppose dinosaurs may have had gigantic beef burritos, but dino-dongs weren't bone, so they weren't fossilized. So we'll never know if our Jurassic Park fan fiction is scientifically accurate). Blue whales pack a bit over one Gheorghe Muresan (or 8 feet), which sounds impressive but is comparatively like a human being rocking just under 4 inches.
The Banana Slug
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
These gross little guys put our species' finest porn starts to shame. They can grow up to be almost 10 inches long…and have slime sticks equally as big. Yes, Banana slugs are wielding wangs as long as their whole bodies.
African Giraffe
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
More horrifying than its 1.5 - 3 foot monster of a member is the male giraffe's courting behavior. Essentially, he slams his head into the rear of a female until she…pees on him. If that pee tastes like delicious ovulation, the male giraffe gets his swizzle stick all up in the fallopian tubes and whatever.
African Elephant
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
Holders of one of the grandest salami-to-size ratios, African Bull Elephants are equipped with tube steaks measuring over 6 feet in length. It's even prehensile, meaning it's a "grasping" or "holding" appendage. You could say African Elephants, in more ways than one, are packing some serious junk in the (wait for it) trunk! (Kill us now.)
The Greater Hook Squid
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
In Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, Captain Nemo's submarine the Nautilus is attacked by a gigantic squid. But perhaps the monster just thought the sub was a sexy lady squid and wanted to make sweet love to it…with its gigantic terrifying squid penis? Deep water squid often have gear equal to the length of their entire bodies (including tentacles). The full size of these rare beasts isn't precisely known, but could be well over 6 feet.
Chianina Bull
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
One of the oldest and largest species of bovine, this Italian breed packs more Gabagool than an episode of the Sopranos. Bull penises come in at a respectable 2-3 feet in length.
Wild Hogs
Photo Courtesy of Istockphoto.com
In the 20th century, boars were introduced to the American wild as a game population for hunting enthusiasts. Those boars got frisky with escaped feral pig populations, and the result was beasts like Hogzilla. Not only can pigs become massive, they're smart enough to manipulate a mouse courser on a PC. Oh, and their thunder downunder can be up to 1.5 feet long. What we're saying is, pigs can beat you up, take your job, and satisfy your woman like you never could.
The Argentine Lake Duck
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
Imagine if you had a 12-foot penis coiled inside your midsection just waiting to unfurl and impregnate the inside of a spiky, treacherously winding female vagoo. That's kind of what being an Argentine lake duck is like. Their 17-inch, spiraling water fowl phallus is designed to enter the confounding female of the species (who have literally developed spikes on their inside). Now let's all go watch Duck Tales!
Colymbosathon Ecplecticos
Photo Courtesy of Wikipedia
We can break our rules for extinct species if your name translates to "Amazing Swimmer with Big Penis." The 425-million-year-old creature, while only 0.2 inches long, had a penis size ratio of 1:5. If humans were similarly packing, we'd all have 15-inch Oscar Mayer's taped to our jeans.

Lodestone Golf Club
McHenry, Maryland
The design team was able to create a sustainable, tournament-caliber 18-hole golf course on this
challenging and environmentally sensitive mountaintop site, by respecting and enhancing the natural
environment. This destination mountain golf experience was designed to complement the existing
Wisp Resort and provide an amenity for surrounding residential development. Site-sensitive design
and strategic integration of the namesake Lodestone rock outcroppings became the defining
framework for the golf course and surrounding neighborhood communities.
For over 30 years, Wisp Resort has thrived as a four-season resort with access to such amenities as an
Olympic-level white water rafting course, a mountain roller coaster, a ski hill, a restaurant, a hotel
and a day lodge as well as beautiful Deep Creek Lake. However, in order to leverage the resort to a
broader and more exclusive clientele (from the nearby metropolitan areas of Baltimore, Washington
D.C and Pittsburgh) as well as to take better advantage of the unused portion of the resort's 1,400+
acres that overlooks Deep Creek Lake, the resort's partnership hired the design team to create an
upscale golf and residential community on the top of Marsh Mountain. The design team adeptly
created this prestigious course – on land that had formerly had extensive erosion and contaminated
wetlands and streams from over 70 years of timber harvesting – by incorporating Lodestone rock
outcroppings and routing the holes through the now tree-covered mountain. The result is
championship-caliber golf course with creative routing and breath-taking views.
We embraced the site's natural features through creative golf hole placement ensuring the protection
and preservation of sensitive wetlands, trout streams and key drainage ways by integrating them
within the championship-caliber golf course. As a result, the golf course was routed around the entire
property to take advantage of a variety of prominent landscape features, eco-systems and wildlife
habitat. The strategic component of the golf course is reminiscent of 1920's classic golf course design,
as it looks much harder than it plays with center-line bunkering and visual deception tactics. The
course challenges the better player and is forgiving to the less-skilled golfer. The landscape architect
used selective clearing, unique grading practices, and wetland and wildlife preservation, to create a
golf course that offers an incredibly rich golf, community, landscape and experience with nature.
In the early stages of design, the discovery of several dramatic moss-covered rock features provided
both a design challenge and opportunity. These outcroppings occur sporadically throughout the site
and linking the golf course around them became a guiding factor of the routing and design concepts.
Most notably, the location for the 17th hole drove the routing for the back nine with the most dramatic
rock feature on the entire site. In addition, the mountainous topography provided the opportunity to
position golf holes to practice one of the most fundamental landscape design strategies: "the
borrowed view." These captured views are evident throughout the golf course and include the distant
Laurel Highlands, Deep Creek Lake and the Alleghany Mountain Range. Also, the routing brings
sensitive mountain wetlands and streams into the strategy of the golf course at key locations, while
also maintaining vegetative filtration so as not to contaminate the waterways with golf course runoff.
Environmental Sensitivity – The Lodestone Golf Club was only the second golf course that was
approved and permitted by the Maryland Department of Environment (MDE) in Garrett County, MD.
During the spring months, the mountainous property teems with ground-fed streams, drainage ways
and vibrant wetlands. An initial metric was set to limit wetland and stream disturbance to less than
one-half acre throughout the entire 1,400-acre property. This measurable goal was met, and, after two
years of operation, the streams still flow as clearly as they did before the golf course was constructed.
The design team and project engineer developed and implemented a $1.3M erosion and sediment
control plan (E & S Plan) to protect water quality during construction. Coincidentally, the first of two
construction seasons came with record rain falls that tested the limits of the system. The controls
remained intact, protecting the adjacent trout stream and wetlands from sediment transport. (The
system was required to remain intact until 75% seed germination was established, thus restoring much
needed groundcover and understory to the erosion prone, timber-cleared mountain sides.) The Army
Corp of Engineers (ACOE) and MDE praised the design and now use these practices as a standard for
golf development in Maryland.
Also, the landscape architect implemented several important design solutions in order to
comprehensively treat and protect water quality. These measures not only treat runoff from the golf
course runoff but were also designed to handle the runoff from future residential parcels. This can be
seen clearly on the 14th hole where a vegetative swale and bio-filter basin were designed into the
strategy of the golf hole to collect runoff from the adjacent residential property and redirect it into the
vegetative swale and ultimately back into a nearby stream. This system allows for the water to be
cleansed before re-entering the natural drainage ways.
Finally, the team designed the course with an awareness of the wildlife present on the site before
development. One of the most charming aspects of the property is the abundance of deer that live
there and by maintaining native, vegetative corridors between golf holes (and even on some of the
holes themselves), the course maintains a vital deer habitat throughout property. In addition, the deer
can now be seen throughout the golf course and add a tremendous, natural quality to the golfing
Design Aesthetic– The landscape architect employed extensive use of native grasses, a strict and
selective tree clearing plan, unique golf course features and strategic placement of golf holes next to
unique site features to create a golf course that sits in harmony with the mountainous landscape and
deciduous forest of the Laurel Highlands. In addition to saving water through increased native areas,
the native grasses provide a sublime and picturesque edge transition between the manicured turf and
the native understory of the forest that includes existing Mountain Laurel and native ferns. The native
grasses are also used on the backside of bunkers to further the notion of blurring the edge between the
golf course and the native landscape.
The team utilized topographic relief to create dramatic, downhill golf shots that tempt players of all
abilities and that create powerful landscape experiences. Through intense, up-front analysis, the
landscape architects laid golf holes upon the land in ways that take advantage of the most spectacular
views from the site, enhancing the overall golf experience.
Local community –By providing jobs for many local residents, the construction and maintenance of
the golf course has greatly benefitted the overall community in McHenry. Additionally, the golf
course serves as the open space framework for the Lodestone residential community. The landscape
architect's plan included the creation of trails and roadways that cross between golf holes. The course
has nearly six miles of a meandering eight–foot-wide cart path/circulation system that doubles as a
cross-country ski trail in the winter and pedestrian loop during non-golf times in the summer. Also,
maintained vegetation between the golf and residential areas serves to maintain the character of the
mountainous landscape and buffer golf, development and wildlife. The team designed the course's
buffers at 450 feet – much wider than the typical 360-foot golf course corridor. The wider buffer
allows for a expansive vegetative and wildlife corridor and safer golfer experience, while at the same
time eliminating the double-loaded real estate scenario common in residential golf course
Teeming with clear streams, and punctuated with dramatic rock outcroppings, the golf course is a
series of dramatically undulating emerald landscapes that meander through the forest and tours the
golfer through the mountainous Laurel Highlands.

Image 01 - The Master Plan illustrates the broadness of the routing. The design team
intentionally strung the course routing across Marsh Mountain to capture and engage the
numerous site attributes into the strategy of the golf course.
Image 02 - Early strategic options were studied to create a golf course that offers unique
experiences. Included in this sampling is the Par 4, 6th hole, with two distinct angles to the green
separated by a preserved grouping of trees (also see image #14).
Image 03 - Hole-by-hole analysis was completed to convey the unique strategy of each golf hole.
Hole seven is a true three-shot Par 5 that will challenge even the best players.
Image 04 - This digital painting of the Par 3, 17th was produced early in the design phase to help
illustrate the dramatic quality of the rock outcropping and hole strategy.
Image 05 - The final design of the Par 3, 17th was built with a remarkable resemblance to the
early study.
Image 06 - The design team specified native grasses throughout the golf course to reduce the
amount of irrigated turf, thus lowering water consumption and returning the landscape to its
native state. On the Par 4, 4th, this approach is clearly represented.
Image 07 - The striking Par 5, 3rd plays to a green perched on a peninsula of land and guarded by
a series of greenside bunkers.
Image 08 - A maintained drainage way through the Par 5, 3rd, provides a natural wildlife
corridor for deer to move within the golf landscape. Additionally, by providing the deer this
passage, golfers and walkers are presented with wildlife viewing opportunities.
Image 09 - On the Par 3, 5th hole, an existing wetland was protected from golf course runoff
through the use of vegetative swales. During the fall, the wetland vegetation changes to a deep
red color and offer a striking contrast to the maintained turfgrass.
Image 10 - The green for the Par 3, 8th hole was located on the edge of a natural plateau with the
intention of capturing the most dramatic "borrowed view" on the entire course.
Image 11 - Early site analysis, along with creative routing, grading and design allowed for this
spectacular view from the Par 5th, 13th hole to Deep Creek Lake.
Image 12 - Careful consideration was given to every landscape detail. Wetland crossings were
handled with foot-bridges that eliminated wetland disturbances.
Image 13 – From the bunker of the beautiful Par 5, 7th hole. A series of foreshortened bunkers
near the green appear to be guarding the front right portion of the green complex. In reality there
is over a 100 yards between the bunkers and the front of the green.
Image 14 - On top of Marsh Mountain – The design strategy can clearly be seen from this
dramatic aerial photo of the Par 4, 6th hole.

Cozy and Beautiful! This nightie is just perfect for our wet and cold Northwest May/June, 44 degrees this morning, without having to be snow or Christmas-related. We usually put away our wool by 4th of July and this lovely, cozy gown will keep me sleeping warm until the weather changes to summer. I'm VERY glad I bought it. May 29, 2013
Pretty, lightweight flannel This is a lovely, light-weight flannel nightgown that runs about a size smaller than stated. Vermont Country Store very graciously exchanged the too-small ones I bought and criticized earlier even though they had been worn and washed. They didn't shrink; they just run small. May 15, 2013
Cheery indeed How refreshing to have a USA-made garment!! The fabric is a good substantial weight, and the sleeves and length are good. I will enjoy this gown for a long time. April 19, 2013
Skimpy width Serviceable? Yes, generous? No. This 1X size is 61" across the hip, compared to 70" & 72" in my other very well known brands of flannel nightgowns which are only XL's. I like a roomy gown so I would not order these again. On the plus side the fabric is a nice thick flannel. Manufacturers have been doing this for a long time now to cut costs and unfortunately, unless they give you garment measurements on-line, you can't tell they've done this until you get the item. Disappointed. April 7, 2013
Vermont Country Store Flannels are the BEST! I have been a customer of VC store for years. One of the main things I purchase for myself is a winter flannel nightgown. They are hard to find in our local shops. I have always purchased Lanz of Salzburg brand until now. This year, I had to cut back on my spending and they had their own brand on sale, so I purchased one. They are SUPERIOR to the Lanz brand. The flannel is heavier/thicker, the material is softer, the length is perfect and best of all, no shrinkage. I wish you could buy these all the time....I want MORE!!! PLEASE! AND the price is so much more affordable!!!! Thank you from a nice and warm Gramma!!!! February 25, 2013
Pretty & Snuggy Warm VERY comfortable & perfect to snuggle up in during cold weather. I was afraid the floral fabic design would feel "off" for cold weather wear; instead it's a real spirit lifter. Like it so much that I am buying a second one while it's still available. February 3, 2013

Airhole.... Awesome!!!
Member since
this is the best mask/ gator type of gear I have ever had. It's warm enough, but not so warm that U are overheating. The velcro strips allow for a tight to loose fit (so U can use it like a gator or a mask. I highly recommend any airhole mask!!!! *Side note* there is no big logo on the side. The mask is just a solid color.

How does the mask come together? Is it Velcro? If not what is it and if so does it work?
Leslie Byers
Member since
There is velcro in the back.
Small is super small
Member since
The picture shows the airhole logo on the side of the mask. There is no logo on the side. I returned the S/M size as it was way too small for my head which is 7 1/8.
One criticism is that if you are infact using it on the slopes and you're on the lifts and its 5 degrees and windy, the hole actually lets too much cold air in. If you ride with it the whole day, it is going to get damp with your breath vapour.
Otherwise it is an awesome mask.

how i can recognize if i am size m or l in airhole colour mask
Member since
i wear a 7 5/8 hat and the large fits me fine. if that helps
Member since
I'm a 71/8 and a L still fits me. I ordered a S/M to see how small it was and it was way small. Small is only for kids
Leslie Byers
Member since
Most adults will fit the L/XL size best. S/M is really best suited for youth or smaller women.

Port Clinton girls defeat Perkins
Port Clinton 52, Perkins 42
Trailing 19-9 midway thru the second quarter, the Port Clinton Lady 'Skins mounted a furious rally against Perkins, outscoring the Pirates, 43-23, the rest of the way to claim victory, 52-42.
Down 19-9, the 'Skins went on a 10-0 run, tying the game on a three-point play by junior forward Tiffany Colston early in the third quarter.
Colston gave the 'Skins the lead for good at 26-24 on a three-pointer midway thru the fourth quarter. From that point, Port Clinton outscored Perkins, 26-18, the rest of way.
Colston led the way, finished with 21 points and 10 rebounds, both game highs, and Hope Thorbahn contributed 12 points and five boards. Colston also did a fine job defensively, holding Perkins forward Shannon Ebert in check, and limited her to 10 points.
