he city of Lincoln has two places to cool off during the hot summer months McBean Memorial Pool and the water play area at Foskett Regional Park. The pool is a summertime ritual for most kids in Lincoln, Mayor Spencer Short said. My cousins and I were in the pool quite often. My uncle managed the pool for a couple of years. McBean Memorial Pool at 65 McBean Park Drive was officially dedicated May 23, 1925. The refurbished pool was officially dedicated June 1, 2005. On June 9, 2008, the refurbished pool house was dedicated. A staff of 14 works at the pool, including a pool manager, an assistant pool manager, a swim team coordinator, seven water safety instructor/lifeguards, three lifeguards and a cashier. The citys budget for the pool for 2012-13 is $111,500, which includes staff and program costs, year-round maintenance, supplies, utilities and chemi-

cals. Of that amount, approximately $70,000 is derived from aquatics program fees to pay for staffing. The remainder comes from the General Fund. Pool manager Chris Hawley estimates 80 to 100 individuals participate in recreation swim each day. Lincoln resident Brianna Freeburn and her 4-year-old daughter, Violet, are at the pool every day. We like that its family friendly, she said. There are so many different kids here. The pool opened June 11 and is open every day except Sunday until Labor Day. Activities take place from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. The pool is available for party rentals on Sunday. So far, 10 events are scheduled for this summer. Recreation swim takes place 2-5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays through Aug. 17 and from 2-5 p.m. Saturdays through Sept. 1. Pool hours are noon to 5 p.m. Labor Day. Admission is free for children

up to 3-years-old; $3 for ages 4 to 17 and $5 for adults. A summer swim pass for a family of four costs $120. For more information, call 434-3231. McBean Pool has two new programs. One is tiny tot playtime for children age 6 and younger from 10-11:30 a.m. Mondays. Its exciting for our younger kids to have their own swim time just to wade and splash, the citys recreation supervisor Kristine Pelzman said. Pelzman said the other new program offers swim team technique clinics for swim team

members. This gives them a chance to learn more about the strokes they are competing on, Pelzman said. Other pool activities include swim lessons and water aerobics classes. For a full schedule of classes offered at the pool, see the Spring/Summer 2012 Recreation Guide at www.ci.lincoln.ca.us. Recreation supervisor Doug Brown says the water area at Foskett Regional Park is a popular place for children to get wet while their siblings are playing in weekend softball and baseball tournaments. Im there all the time, Brown said. There always seems to be someone there. Ill see one mom and two kids or three moms and a handful of kids. It does get used. Parents press down a button to turn on the water feature, which splashes up water in the concrete area for five minutes of fun and laughter in the sun. Foskett Regional Park is located at 1911 Finney Way.

uly appears to be a transition time in the fashion world. Shoppers can still add to their summer wardrobe but they can also start picking up clothes soon to wear in the fall and winter months. Anna Tonkin-Woods, co-owner of Annas Sweet Repeats & Boutique with husband Bill, recommends building a wardrobe starting with larger-ticket items, including pants, dresses and skirts in solid colors. I say spend money wisely by getting solid colors and the skys the limit, Tonkin-Woods said. Find the right designer brand. Once you find pants that fit like a glove, stick with that brand. Then you can pair them with less expensive tops. Bright colors are in for summer, she said. Green is really big.

Theres a lot of yellow, fuchsia, periwinkle blue and teals. Black, white and brown are beautiful. Animal leopard prints are always in. Tonkin-Woods said she carries a lot of black and white sun dresses. The safest rule is a solid dress, she said. Pull it together with a scarf. When you are traveling,

bring solids and accessorize with a red handbag and red scarf. Shrugs (a lightweight jacket) are another option to accessorize and keep cool. The shop owner offers personal assistance if requested. She plans to start monthly wardrobe classes in September. Chico is the top brand sold at the store. Other top brands are Cold Water Creek, Banana Republic, Ralph Lauren, Liz Claiborne and Hot Cotton. Eighty-five percent of the business is consignment. The remainder is brand new items. The store moved the first week of summer from a 600-square-foot space at 424 G St., Suite 204 to a 1,600-square-foot space at 436 G St., Suite 100.

August/early September. We always carry vacation wear. The summer sale clearance at The Wardrobe, 517 G St., starts July 17. Owner Kathy Dorseys fall and winter 2012 clothes are already arriving. Ill be racking in August, she said. Dorsey ordered clothing for her core lines in January and April. Im introducing new manufacturers to keep things fresh, she said. New manufacturers include JAG Jeans, Ivy Reed, Relique, ICANTOO and Habitat. I have to compete with T.J. Maxx, Ross, other boutiques, Macys and Nordstrom, Dorsey said. I find unique things

women wont see themselves in 20 times. She described the colors for fall and winter as more muted. There are a lot of pastels, Dorsey said. Brown and black are together again. Lavender and mauve are popular. The shades are a bit softer, not as bold. There are a lot of patterns and asymmetrical lines in skirts, tops and everything. Patterns include block and Aztec-type styling. Dorsey said scarves and vests are popular as well as ruching, a gathering of material at sleeves and necklines. Palazzo pants are coming back, she said. They have a very wide leg. I tend to focus on nat-

ural fibers like cottons, Dorsey said. Bamboo is becoming very popular. It has the durability of linen and longevity but also the softness of cotton. Dorsey recommends that women look in their closets to see what they already have. Brown and black are back. They probably have a lot of clothes they can bring to the forefront that they had in the back of the closet and augment with T-shirts, she said. Tshirts used to be pretty plain, but now they are elegant with bling and rhinestones. This is not your mothers T-shirt. They have moved to a whole new dimension. There is a more artistic approach to embellishments.

he building that most of us refer to as Beermans has had a long and varied history as one of the oldest buildings in Lincoln! N.L. Day was the first occupant of this site. He came to Lincoln from Gold Hill when the railroad arrived in October 1861. Day purchased the 26-footlot next to the alley and opened a livery stable. In 1864, the Odd Fellows (a lodge) acquired the lot and announced a 24 by 80 two-story brick building would be built on the site. It was soon completed and dedicated on Dec. 8, 1864. The Odd Fellows and the Masons met upstairs and the downstairs served as Joseph Dallmans dry goods store, which was here until the 1890s. At the turn of the century, Fiddyment and Leavell (Louis)

had a general store here until 1903 when C.E. Finney took over. In 1905, the building was expanded to its present size. Finney occupied the new part and Wyatt and May had a butcher shop for more than 50 years (Beermanns most of the time). Part of the building was a movie theater (Photo Theatre) from 1913 to 1919, then a grocery store until 1955 (mainly Clingers), Alexanders Drug Store from 1916 to 1945 and then C.C. Neville Electric Shop.

COURTESY

In the 1920s, more than 10 fraternal organizations held their meetings upstairs. There were also professional offices. In the 1990s, a major renova-

tion and decoration turned the building into a restaurant, bar and brewery. Part of the second floor is now used as a little theatre for music, theatre and banquet

events and has many beautiful murals.

Sun can be hard on the skin without the proper precautions

INSIDE LINCOLN CORRESPONDENT

reparation is the key to a great day of fun in the sun free of sunburns and sun damage to the skin. Hats, protective clothing, eyewear and water are some essentials lead esthetician Tina Ginnetti, spa manager at the Spa of Kilaga Springs recommends. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate, Ginnetti advises. Water is the number one recommendation. For your skin we recommend our La Bella Donna Minerals as they are water proof, do not absorb into the skin and last through eight hours without reapplication. They can be used by men, women and children from age 6 months. They are great in the pool, on the tennis court and all day golfing. We also carry Hydropeptide Sunblock, which has an anti-aging, anti-wrinkle factor in it. Using a moisturizer with a sunblock is imperative to block the sun and

prevent premature aging, Attitudes esthetician Brian Keith Huffaker said. I like Image, a brand which is available through a physician or esthetician, Huffaker said. With a moisturizer/sunblock you get double duty and its OK to put makeup on top. To apply make sure your face is damp and your hands are damp (not dripping) to spread more evenly, Huffaker said. If

your face is dry, the product will absorb at the point of contact and youll have to use five times the amount of product. Huffaker advises clients to wear sunblock daily from the top of the head to the collar bone. People with thin hair also need to apply the product to the scalp, he said. For me, I have a shaved head so I put it all over. For daily skin care,

esthetician Susan Ferreira of Mane Productions offers clients Jane Iredale, a makeup line with SPF 20 sunblock included in addition to exfoliating skin one to three times a week and a hydrating mask once or twice a week. Stonecrop is her pick. The mask is from Ilike, an allorganic line. For vacations and weekend gardening, she recommends a straight sunblock line from Aus-

tralia called Blue Lizard. For lips, theres Janet Iredales lip drink. This (Blue Lizard) is one of the Number 1 products recommended by dermatologists and salon estheticians, Ferreira said. Its made for summers there and its chemical free. To apply, Ferreira says use a shot glass full for the whole body for sunblock and an amount the size of a nickel for the face. Reapply every two to three hours you are out in the sun, she said. Advanced Clinical Esthetician Kim Evans of 421 Salon & Spa in Lincoln and the Zimmerman Center for Plastic Surgery said after attending a medical seminar presented by dermatologist Dr.

Carl Thornfeldt, the creator of Epionce skin care products, she learned its not the number that makes the difference in skin protection but how the sunscreen is applied. Put a good nickels worth on the face and let that soak in, she said. Wait 20 minutes and do it again. Unless cream sunscreens have zinc and titanium, you will only get 80 minutes of protection period. Why reapply every 80 minutes? Evans, who has been an esthetician 33 years, recommends also applying a SPF 50 mineral powder from Color Sciences Sunforgettable line. When this is applied over cream, you get protection for four hours, Evans said.

Backyard pool creates perfect the summer oasis

is seeing include the vanishing edge, sunning ledges for the sunbathers, automatic pool floor cleaners, and including fire as a water feature so families can enjoy their pool into the night. When installing a pool, the time it takes to complete the project can vary depending on the different features requested. Normal pool construction should take about four to six weeks depending on the complexity. Rushing the work on such a big investment can lead to mistakes or material stresses that can compromise the quality of the job. So dont rush it, Dal Pino said. The prices of constructing a pool can also differ depending on the cirming pool at his Auburn home. Two years ago, he was able to have one constructed in his backyard with his own created features and design. I wanted to bring a little bit of the American River to my backyard. Thats why I went with a lot of rocks and boulders. It is kind of a unique shape that is accented by some really large boulders, Fee said. Fee even chose some special rocks to place on the back wall of his pool that are primarily found in New York. These special rocks have a rainbow-like look to them, containing different colored tones. I saw a palette of that rock and I just fell in love with it, Fee said. Some other unique features Fee included in his pool building process were a tiered waterfall, a bridge, a solar shower on

ow that summer has brought the heat, there is no better time to enjoy a pool. Dick Dalpino, owner of Dalpino Quality Pools, feels that swimming is so popular because of the family connection it brings. Swimming is still the No.1 family oriented activity where more and more families are spending their vacations by staying home and enjoying their own backyard oasis, Dal Pino said.

cumstance. Dal Pino warns against an unusually low cost pool for fear that the quality may be low as well. The prices will vary from project to project and should be about fourth or fifth on the scale of significance to the homeowner and can range from about $40,000 to the skys the limit. If you are not careful, the lowest price may also give you the lowest effort for quality and customer satisfaction, Dal Pino explained. Randall Fee has always wanted to enjoy a swim-

were a tiered waterfall, a bridge, a solar shower on the side of his yard and a beach entry into the pool. There is a small upper pool with a waterfall leading down into the larger pool. Fee had a bench put in underneath the small upper pool so he could sit right under the waterfall on a hot day and feel the mist of the fall. There is a bench built directly under the waterfall so you can sit there and let the water just cascade over you, Fee explained. The bridge is a feature that Fee had wanted for some time before installing the pool so he made sure to have that put in as well. I always wanted to have a bridge built in my pool. Dalpino did an excellent job at building a rock arched bridge. It connects over the top of

the small pool and it sits above the waterfall. The bridge connects my whole backyard together, Fee said. The solar shower on the side of the house was built because Fee is a cross country coach at Placer High School. The shower makes it easy for runners to shower after a long run and then get into the pool directly after. Fee explained that getting directly into cold water like his pool after a long run is good for the muscles, making his pool an important asset to his daily life. The beach entry is more for relaxation. Instead of a drop-off or stairs, the water slowly gets deeper just like water at the beach. When having the luxury of a pool, maintenance is important to keep the pool looking good and

clean. Doug Randall, owner of Tile Blasters, a pool cleaning company, emphasizes the importance of a well kept pool. There are a few steps that Randall suggests that all pool owners take to make sure their pool water and tiles remain clean. If possible, Randall suggests that rather than chemicals, pool owners generate their own chlorine with a salt system. According to Randall, the salt content is less than what is in a tear drop. It is nice on your skin; it doesnt dry you out and

prevents the odors in bathing suits, Randall said. If this is not possible, then chemicals are necessary, Randall said. It is important to shock the pool with a powder shock or liquid chlorine. Randall also advises pool owners to keep a close eye on the netting of their pool sweep to make sure there is no green. Green could mean that there are algae growing in the pool. The pool sweeps have a little tail, scrubber. It goes around and it scrubs the walls. Nine out of 10 pools scrubbers have disintegrated. That scrubber is very important, Randall said. Randall emphasizes that if the tile isnt getting scrubbed at least once a week, calcium deposits will take over. It is like teeth. If you

dont brush your teeth for a few days, they get a little furry, Randall said. The last bit of advice Randall provided was to take a water sample to a nearby pool and spa store that will diagnose the problem in the water and help the owner find the right chemicals to get the water back in good condition. Randall personally recommends All Seasons in Auburn. He says they will give a free water diagnosis. After making sure the pool maintenance is upto-date, there is nothing left to do except enjoy the water. Swimming pools not only offer relaxation and exercise but give the families a chance to communicate and re-connect with each other in a safe and intimate refuge, Dal Pino said.

ummer is a great time to go swimming and enjoy the sun, but this comes with caution. Extreme heat or five days in a row of temperatures that are 9 degrees above normal can cause dangerous health issues. However, you can plan ahead. Prevention is the key for heat exhaustion protection.

Dont let heat stroke, exhaustion bring you down this summer S
Eva Lin On Your Side

During a heat emergency:

Stay indoors as much as possible, and limit exposure to sun If you dont have air conditioning, visit somewhere that does, such as a pubic library or shopping mall If you need to perform physical work or work out, try to save it for early

morning or evening hours. Stay on the lowest floor out of sunshine Drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol; eat well-balanced, light and regular meals Dress in loose-fitting, lightweight, and light-colored clothes that cover as much skin as possible; wear a wide-brimmed hat to protect your face and neck from the sun Make certain your pets have a cool place to rest along with plenty of water

Never leave children or pets in closed vehicles Its especially important to watch older adults, young children and those who are sick or overweight because theyre the most likely to suffer from heat cramps, exhaustion or stroke.

Heat cramps
Occur with muscle pain and spasms start due to overuse. (Normally involving the abdominal muscles or legs)
Treatment:

Occurs when people exercise or work in a hot, humid place Blood flow to the skin increases, restricting blood flow to vital organs causing the victim to go into mild shock If not treated, the victim will continue to get worse and may suffer heat stroke.
Treatment:

them Let the victim rest

Heat stroke

Have victim rest in comfortable position Lightly stretch the affected muscle and replenish fluids Give the victim half a glass of cool water every 15 minutes (no alcohol or caffeine)

Get the victim out of the heat and into a cooler place Loosen tight clothing and apply cool, wet cloths, such as towels or sheets Give the victim half a glass of water every 15 minutes, and have the individual drink it slowly; dont give liquids that have alcohol or caffeine in

A life-threatening condition The victims control system that produces sweating to cool the body stops working When this happens, a victims body temperature can rise so high that brain damage and death may result.
Treatment:

Call 911 or your local emergency number Move the victim to a cooler place and quickly cool the body Immerse the victim in a cool bath, or wrap wet sheets around him/her and fan the body Watch for breathing problems

Continue to have the victim lie down and continuously try to cool the body If the victim is vomiting, fading in and out of consciousness or refuses water, dont give the individual anything to eat or drink This information is meant to help you make decisions that may reduce your risk.

Allergies are common in pets, treatments can be effective I

t is estimated that one in seven dogs suffer from allergic symptoms. According to Veterinary Pet Insurance, skin allergies are now the most common reason dog owners take their dog to the veterinarian.
Thomas Morrow, D.V.M. Pet Column

The first, safest and most important step to helping your pet with allergies is taking them to a veterinarian to be diagnosed.
point facial scabbing in cats, asthma-like wheezing and respiratory problems (more likely in cats), red itchy bumps or blisters on sparsely-haired areas of the skin and those exposed to the allergen such as the belly, feet, or muzzle, intense scratching and hair loss (in chronic conditions). Just like people, dogs show allergic symptoms when their immune systems begin to recognize certain everyday substances, or allergens, as dangerous.

Heredity plays a role

Although certain breeds appear to be more allergy prone, all breeds and their mixes can be affected.

Allergies can begin at any age

While humans tend to experience upper respiratory symptoms when an allergy is triggered, the target organ in dogs is

usually the skin, with intense itching being the principal sign. Dogs with allergies often scratch continuously and are miserable and generally uncomfortable. The most common signs of allergies are chewing at the feet, constant licking of the flank (side) and groin area, rubbing of the face, inflamed ears or recurrent ear infections, recurrent hot spots in dogs and pin-

Even though these allergens are common in most environments and harmless to most animals, a dog with allergies can have an extreme reaction to them. Allergens can be problematic when inhaled, ingested or on a dogs skin. As the body tries to rid itself of these substances, a variety of skin, digestive and respiratory symptoms may appear. Even though some symptoms may seem similar to human allergic reactions, treatment can

be much different. The first, safest and most important step to helping your pet with allergies is taking them to a veterinarian to be diagnosed. Once diagnosed, prescriptions and treatments can be used in the most effective way. Treatments can be in the form of drugs, topicals, shampoos, nutritional and avoidance. Each animal is unique and the treatments will be tailored for each case.
Dr. Thomas Morrow is the owner of Critter Creek Veterinary Hospital at 395 South Highway 65 in Lincoln and can be reached at 409-6549.

Pets have special needs during summer

BY PATTY MCALPIN

Dr. Todd Berlier, of Banfield Pet Hospital in Lincoln, advises pet owners to use Trifexis (available in chewable tablets) for combination heartworm and flea prevention.
PATTY McALPIN INSIDE LINCOLN

INSIDE LINCOLN CORRESPONDENT

ccess to water and shade are two recommendations from local veterinarians to help keep pets healthy this summer. Animals cant be left in direct sunlight or they are exposed to heat stroke, said Dr. Thomas Morrow of Critter Creek Veterinary Hospital. They need to have shade, air circulation and unlimited water. Its nice for dogs to have a kiddy pool to get wet, Morrow said. Get a

plastic one, not inflatable. Most dogs will get into the water. For cats, he said pet owners should make sure there is water and access to shade where air can circulate. Dr. Todd Berlier of Banfield Pet Hospital in Lincoln said dogs with longer hair can be shaved to keep them a little cooler. Morrow said pet owners who have dogs and cats with long, thick hair can get them clipped in early spring. If you do this when

summer starts, they can get sun burned, Morrow said. Animals with underlying medical conditions such as heart disease should stay indoors in an air-conditioned environment, Berlier said. Both veterinarians said fleas and ticks are worse for animals in the spring and summer. Morrow recommends FRONTLINE for cats and dogs.

tip through your pets hair to the skin between the shoulder blades, squeeze the applicator and apply the entire contents in a single spot onto your pets skin. A Scalibor (Protector Band tick) collar kills ticks and makes them detach and fall off, Morrow said. If a dog is really prone, this is great for them. Cats tend to get ticks but they can usually pick them off themselves. Berliers pick is First Shield products for fleas and ticks. For combination heartworm and flea

prevention, he advises pet owners to use Trifexis (available in chewable tablets). Both Morrow and Berlier say pets should be vaccinated against rattlesnake bites. Snakes are more prevalent, Berlier said. Dogs and cats can get bitten in the face. Ive seen it two times this summer. We got it early and both dogs survived. They came in 36 hours after it happened so the swelling had gone down. We treated them for 24 hours with IV fluids,

The most common times animals encounter snakes are when dogs are off leash, a pet owner has a lot of property or a home abuts a wild land area.
cleaned the wound and gave the dogs antibiotics and pain medicine. In the worst-case scenario where anti-venin is needed, Berlier said, dogs can need three to four treatments. The cost is $850 each. If a pet is vaccinated, the amount needed to control the reaction is reduced. With the vaccine against rattlesnake bites, if a dog gets bit, theyll still need treatment but there is more of a safety margin until they get treated, Morrow said. The most common times animals encounter snakes are when dogs are

off leash, a pet owner has a lot of property or a home abuts a wild land area, which is the case in some areas of Lincoln Hills, Berlier said. Have your dog on leash in wild areas, he said. Berlier called foxtail removal the No. 1 reason he sees pet owners in the summer. I pulled a foxtail out of a cats tail last night, he said. A foxtail is described by Merriam-Webster dictionary as any of several grasses (especially genera

Alopecurus, Hordeum, and Setaria) with spikes resembling brushes, also called foxtail grass. This hospital sees one to five foxtail removals a day at this time of the year, Berlier said. Animals brush up against it and they can get it caught in the nose, mouth, toes and eye lids and have skin infections and abscesses. This can be fatal. In one experience, it had gone from a dogs nose, passed into the lungs and ruptured. During the autopsy, the foxtail was found in a lung.

One persons perspective about the real-estate recovery

Gene Thorpe Real Estate

f you are a homeowner who has been thinking about moving up to a better home but has been hesitating because you are uncertain about the housing market, have some good news.

some fast facts: Californias housing market moved at its fastest pace and biggest year-over-year gain in three years in May, according to the California Association of Realtors report. The report also noted these trends for single-

First of all, here are

family detached homes: Homes sold at an annual rate of 572,260, up 21.5 percent from May 2011.Thats biggest yearover-year sales increase since May 2009. Thats the fastest sales pace and was the highest since February 2009. Statewide median price was $312,110 in May. Thats up 6.6 percent in a year and highest since September 2010. Californias housing inventory the Realtors

Unsold Inventory Index measuring time needed to sell the entire inventory at the current buying pace fell to 3.5 months versus 5.7 months in May 2011. Median number of days it takes to sell a single-family home? 46.6 days versus 52.0 days in May 2011. California Association of Realtors President LeFrancis Arnold stated, California home sales were strong in May, con-

tinuing the gradual recovery of the California housing market. First-time buyers are recognizing that the housing market has hit bottom and are now seeing a sense of urgency to take advantage of ultra-low interest rates and advantageous home prices. Additionally, trade-up buyers are returning to the market after sitting it out for the past few years to get in on favorable home prices. Placer County is still

Placer County is still going strong, compared to the rest of the country, and Lincoln is still the leading city in the county as far as low-cost retail, schools, parks, libraries, shopping and quality of life are concerned. At this time in our area, we are seeing many more buyers than there are available properties on the market. That means for every successful buyer, there are several who lost out. This means if you or someone you know who has wanted to sell a home or property but hasnt been able to, because of

the economy, should call their favorite Realtor because the market is changing. Prices, which have been low for so long, are starting to rise. For every bit of appreciation, there are a number of homeowners who will be finally able to sell their properties for above what they owe on their loans and move up to the homes they ultimately desire. As an equity seller, you are our most prized client. If you are behind on your payments and are uncertain as to what to do, the short sale process is working more efficiently with the banks than

ever before, allowing those who are upside down with their mortgages, to move on to a fresh financial start. At this time, more than three million customers are returning to the market after going through foreclosure or short sale. The moratorium on the short sale tax forgiveness expires at the end of the year. (Ask your Realtor for more information.) As prices improve in the entry-level properties, the new homebuilders will be able to compete in the marketplace, bringing jobs created in the trades and manufacturing of materials, further creating

momentum toward the recovery to keep up with anticipated housing needs. While we are at this point, interest rates are at historic lows, so as the prices creep up, the effect is minimal to the payment. Ron Barringer, local broker with C-21, said, I just want you to know this is one of the finest seller markets I have seen in years. The current dynamics of the market are very good. Dont miss the boat if you are think-

ing of moving to your dream home. So if you want to move up or move on from an upside down property, this is the time to do it. Call a Realtor for assistance. Until next time, have a great day!

FARM TO TABLE
DOWNTOWN LINCOLN FARMERS MARKET When: 5-8 p.m. Thursdays Where: F Street between 5th and 6th streets SUN CITY LINCOLN HILLS FARMERS MARKET When: 8 a.m. to noon Wednesdays Where: 965 Orchard Creek Lane

The Farmers Market has a packed venue this year and we are striving to provide you with a good mix of seasonal fruits, vegetables, plants and flowers as well as fresh locally raised pork, beef and lamb. We are looking forward to a very productive harvest this year. The trees and plants are overloaded and promise to give us a workout for sure. Quality this year is unsurpassed and we couldnt be happier.
Billie Jean Salle is Sierra Fresh Certified Farmers Market manager. The Downtown Lincoln Farmers Market runs from 5-8 p.m. Thursdays. The market is at F Street between 5th and 6th streets. Salle also runs the Sun City Lincoln Hills Farmers Market from 8 a.m. to noon Wednesdays. The Lincoln Hills Market is at 965 Orchard Creek Lane.

CHERRIES JUBILEE
This is a very easy, yet elegant dessert. INGREDIENTS: 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/4 cup butter 1/4 cup sugar 1 pound Bing (or similar) cherries, pitted and stemmed 1/4 cup kirsch vanilla frozen yogurt or ice cream, for serving

Another bonus to Rodriguez Ranch farming in a cooler weather zone is that he can grow vegetables that we are not able to grow here in the valley heat such as broccoli, cauliflower and huge artichokes. We depend on his farm to round out our market, making it a one-stop shop for you.

DIRECTIONS: In large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar and cherries, and stir to combine. Cook until cherries are tender and sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add kirsch, and carefully ignite. When flame burns out, serve over vanilla frozen yogurt or ice cream.
