Emma Gibs – Scotland's North Highlands, plus Inverness – Bradt Travel Guides...with TRE's Giles Brown

150 Years Ago (March 1875) Three of the four children in the James Robinson family of Garrison - John (16), Willie (10) and Jennie (19) - died of diphtheria over 10 days. Shortly before she died, Jennie asked for James Meade, her Sunday School teacher: "Tell my young friends to seek the Lord, while he may be found, and meet me in heaven." After a storm, a classified ad appeared in The Cold Spring Recorder offering a reward for a Smith & Wesson seven-shooter with plated barrel and rosewood stock lost in the snow, probably on Main Street between West and Church. Because of the snow, Garden Street was reduced to a single lane, forcing Charley Warren to load one side of his wagon with bystanders to turn around, "like a sailor does the windward gunwale in a gale," according to The Recorder. Mr. VanWinkle complained that a transcript of his lecture on Egypt and the Nile, reprinted in The Recorder, contained many errors, including "some of words altered to others that were not dreamed of when writing." After poultry went missing, Theodore Adams, his father and his brother-in-law found the dead birds buried near the Fishkill line. They set a steel trap and returned to find it gone. They followed the path of bushes where the trap had snagged and branches chewed off to release it. At Kings' Chest Cave, by smoke and bullets and dogs, they drew out and killed a 33-pound wildcat with the trap around its foot. The men had it stuffed and brought it to the village. A burglar broke into the slaughterhouse of Charles Miller and stole $5 [about $150 today] worth of pork, beef and veal. Burglars stole $50 [$1,450] worth of liquor and cigars from Tevan's basement saloon by breaking a window. To add insult to injury, the culprits uncorked and spilled the demijohns and smashed the glass bar backing. The Rock Street door of Baxter's Hardware was jimmied and the money drawer relieved of $4 [$115] in change. In a letter to The Recorder, a resident called for $500 of the $1,000 [$29,000] allocated by the Cold Spring Village Board for streets instead be spent to install kerosene lampposts on every corner to "keep our stores from being plundered night after night." Milton Lawrence's hay and William Odell's red cow were seized for back taxes. A young man who raised alarms when he walked down Main Street at 5:30 p.m. on a Thursday with a bandaged head and bloody clothes said he had been injured working at Miller's slaughterhouse. The Library Association hosted a discussion of the question: "Will the centennial of a republican form of government be celebrated by the United States, as a unit, more than once?" The Glee Club also sang. P. Nichols of Parrott Street said his 17 hens produced 118 eggs in 12 days. Thomas Richards was killed at Croft's Mine in Putnam Valley when he drilled into an unexploded ordnance. A year after Michael O'Brien broke his arm in a fight near the depot, he was finally able to return to his job at the foundry, where a hoist rope broke and a casting crushed his arm. A police officer from Orange County came to Cold Spring to arrest John Wyant on a charge of bastardy. Wyant returned home after posting a $1,000 [$29,000] bail. In Nelsonville, Charles Van Voorhis sold 50 chances at $1 [$30] each to win a scene he crafted with stuffed birds and squirrels. Elijah Warren of North Highlands, at 70, took his first train ride, from Cold Spring to Garrison. He said his daughter told him to keep his head inside the window. "Dear Lord, how we did sail!" he said. "After I got settled, I could have rode clean to [New] York." 125 Years Ago (March 1900) Michael Pendergrast, 48, the brother of George Pendergrast of Cold Spring, was killed in the railroad tunnel south of Anthony's Nose. He was clearing the ceiling of hanging ice when he was struck by a southbound express. Pendergrast had been employed by the railroad for 25 years and left a widow and eight children. Iona Island, the popular picnic resort, was purchased by the federal government to us...

How do you fit in with God's calling for His church?  -- What steps can we take to ensure that our words and actions reflect Christ's love in our interactions with others? Can you share an experience where you had to put another's needs above your own? What did you learn from it? What is one action you can take this week to foster a sense of community and unity at North Highlands?

State money will help secure drinking water supply New York State announced on Monday (Dec. 23) that it will send $2.5 million to the Village of Cold Spring for repairs to one of the two dams at its reservoirs. The money is part of $225 million from the state Department of Environmental Conservation for 165 projects across New York to update aging infrastructure, improve water quality and protect drinking water. The village submitted its application, written by Trustee Laura Bozzi, in July. "While this grant is only a portion of the nearly $8 million needed to complete the Upper Dam repairs, it is a significant boost for the village," said Mayor Kathleen Foley in a statement. "It will enable us to bond [borrow] less and keep water rates a bit more stable during the construction. "The condition of the dam is a critical public safety issue, and it is a relief that we finally have resources and momentum to see necessary repairs through," she said. Foley praised Bozzi, "a public health research professional [who] has brought her grant-writing prowess to bear for village projects time and again," she said. Located off Lake Surprise Road on Foundry Brook in the North Highlands, the two reservoirs provide water to Cold Spring, Nelsonville and some parts of Philipstown. The 270-foot Upper Dam was constructed in 1934 and the 328-foot Lower Dam in 1942; each is about 25 feet high. The Department of Environmental Conservation rates both as "high-hazard" - a measure of the damage, including loss of life, that would result from their failure - and "unsound," which is worse than "deficiently maintained" but not as bad as the lowest rating, "unsafe." The reconstruction will raise the Upper Dam by 2 feet to improve spillway capacity, install a waterproof membrane on its face and improve the outlet and abutments. In 2017, an engineer told the Village Board that the repairs would cost between $3.8 million (a single spillway requiring the reservoir to be lowered by 1.2 feet) and $4.2 million (multiple spillways). The latter estimate has nearly doubled over the past eight years. In January 2023, Foley said an engineering firm told her that, once the design was complete, it would take eight to 12 months for the dam to be repaired. A 2016 assessment of the dam conditions is valid until 2026. During the repairs, Cold Spring will likely need to tap into the Catskill Aqueduct; in 2023, after 15 years of negotiations, the village reached an agreement with New York City to create the connection. If Cold Spring taps into the system, it must pay $2,450 per 1 million gallons, Foley said last month when the reservoirs dipped because of drought. The system requires about 300,000 gallons per day.

If you have been around long enough to notice, it is safe to say that North Highlands is a growing church. For example, our membership has increased by 60% in the last 18 months. How good is God! Being a part of a growing church is exciting. There are new people to meet. New ministries to start. God is on the move. It's awesome. But “church growth” is not without its challenges. This week, we'll explore how the early church navigated these growing pains and what it means for us today. -- Questions for Reflection & Discussion Why do you think the early church's rapid growth brought both excitement and challenges? How might unmet needs and fractured unity affect the health of our church community? What specific gifts or strengths do you bring to the church? How can you use these to help strengthen the church's mission, unity, and care for others? The apostles remained focused on prayer and the ministry of the Word even amid practical demands. How can you guard against distractions and stay focused on our core mission as a church?

Hey, Fam! Sunday is going to be sooo good! This weekend we have the privilege of spending a morning with Marvin Walker, Campus Pastor of Watermark South Dallas. If you don't know Marvin, you are going to love him! He is a native Californian and long-time friend of North Highlands. He is married to his beautiful bride, Amber, and together they have three beautiful children.  He is going to be sharing a message from Judges 3 titled “Fail the Test, Cease to Rest.” It's going to be awesome!

When I was growing up, I wanted to be a doctor. I loved the idea of helping people stay healthy, diagnosing their illnesses, and making sure their bodies were functioning as they should. The human body is remarkable, but as we all know, it requires the right care—a good diet and regular exercise to help it function properly and grow strong. In our passage this weekend, Luke, the physician, is essentially giving a prescription for a healthy church, outlining the diet and exercise that made the early Spirit-filled congregation as vibrant and healthy as it was–a prescription that will help keep our church body healthy and growing, too. -- Questions for Reflection & Discussion What is the most encouraging aspect of this passage for you personally? What do you find most challenging? With regard to the healthy “diet and exercise” prescription of a local church, which is the greatest strength here at North Highlands? Which is the greatest weakness? How can you help? How does this passage compel you to pray for your own personal pursuit of Jesus? How does it compel you to pray for our church?

150 Years Ago (May 1874) The town and village excise boards met to receive applications for liquor licenses. The only applicant was Mr. Washburn, for his Garrison hotel. The Cold Spring Recorder noted that "temperance people" had been pressuring the boards to refuse all applications. John Van Buskirk, who had received $75 [about $2,000 today] in an estate settlement, came to Cold Spring and, after getting drunk and waving around his cash, waited at the station for the Poughkeepsie train. Depot employees took him inside for his own safety, but Van Buskirk took offense and punched the baggage master. He gave up $10 as a fine and spent the night in jail. A resident reported snowbanks on a mountain road on May 9 as high as his axle. William Wood was taking down the front of his blacksmith shop to rebuild it with a mansard roof, Ladue was adding a story to Boyd's building and George McCabe was having a brick barn constructed behind his Stone Street store. A German strolling band with three brass horns performed in Main Street, with a woman on the baritone. Sands Morrison, 26, died of pneumonia. An anonymous correspondent chastised Continental Village residents in The Recorder: "The people of this place have rendered themselves despicable and conspicuous solely on account of their utter want of interest in church matters. They allowed their little, white, neat, respectable church to remain empty without even so much as a prayer meeting." Another anonymous resident complained about the vegetable hawkers who left at the end of the day "not looking to the right or left for fear they might be tempted to leave a little money in the town where they made it." Isaac Baxter, who grew up in Nelsonville, was a suspect in the robbery of $32,000 [$877,000] from a safe in the Grand Central office of the Hudson River Railroad Co. His alleged accomplice was a clerk there. By a 30-2 vote, Philipstown residents rejected a proposal to raise taxes by $313.50 to pay a bill from the county Board of Health. The Recorder editor noted the bill had to be paid one way or another. John Gallagher had been looking all over the village for Arthur Thompson to settle a score. He found him and pulled a knife but got a severe beating. A 22-year-old sorrel mare that Richard Denney of North Highlands had sold two years earlier in Dutchess County showed up at her old stable. A group of 10 women, working in pairs, went from door to door in Cold Spring and Nelsonville to circulate a Total Abstinence Pledge. A wildfire broke out on Sugar Loaf, filling the Highlands with smoke. Elmore Mekeel drowned while night fishing at Lake Surprise. He was pulled "cramped" from 3 feet of water, suggesting he had a seizure. Two Cold Spring men who went to Newburgh to see Barnum's Hippodrome began to fight on the train home. The conductor put them in separate cars and locked the doors. They were arrested upon arrival and fined $8 [$220] each. The Recorder noted that while May 30 was widely accepted as the proper time to decorate the graves of Union soldiers, "there are no remains of the Union dead in our cemeteries, therefore the day has not been observed here." Cold Spring's brass band instead traveled to Yonkers. On a Saturday evening, a woman with bloody hands appeared at the district attorney's office. The Recorder reported that her husband had been abusive, "but as we hear no more of the case we presume that the formality and delay of the law caused the woman to abandon her complaint." Carl Braasch sold his boot and shoe store on Main Street and returned to Germany. A load of household goods being transported down Main Street went out of control and "a general smashup was anticipated" by bystanders. Instead, the first item to fall off was a sawhorse that wedged in front of a wheel and stopped the wagon. 125 Years Ago (May 1899) Villagers observed Dewey Day to honor Admiral George Dewey, who destroyed the Spanish fleet at Manila Bay during the Spanish-American War. Joe McCarthy, fo...

July is an exciting month for us, as it signals the approach of our shooting season, which starts on 12 August—known as The Glorious Twelfth—with the opening of the red grouse season. My husband Ronnie and I live on the northwest coast of Scotland with our ten Hungarian Wirehaired Vizslas. They are a huge part of our lives—they share our house and our sofas and are our family. The breed has a lovely temperament and a boundless willingness to please, making them a joy to live and work with. Ronnie and I have been married for 32 years and during this time we have had many working dogs including spaniels, Labradors, retrievers, pointers, and an odd assortment of terriers. We finally settled on the Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla breed and have not looked back! It all began nine years ago when I decided that I wanted my own dog to train, work, and compete with; now I have four Hungarian Wirehaired Vizslas that I'm proud to call my own.

150 Years Ago (March 1874) After The Peekskill Messenger boasted that Mr. Sutton was the longest-serving church choir director on the East Coast, having been at Second Presbyterian for 34 years, The Cold Spring Recorder countered that Mr. Barrows had been at the Episcopal church in the village for the same amount of time. The Recorder reported that "temperance people congratulate each other [on progress made to make alcohol illegal] and hope the day is not distant when every whiskey cask will be knocked in the head." The Cold Spring Board of Trustees proposed a budget of $3443.50 [about $89,000 today], including $600 [$15,500] for street cleaning, $400 to pave the Main Street crosswalks and $200 to deepen the Paulding Avenue well. Charles Baxter sued Oscar Organ for $100 [$2,700], alleging that he quit before completing an eight-month contract as a laborer. Oscar's father, C.J., offered $39.85 to settle - the wages left to be paid - but Baxter refused. A jury awarded $40. The Recorder noted that a Western Union agent traveled on the Hudson River Railroad. For a small additional fee, passengers could have telegraphs delivered to any station on the line. John Dougherty, employed by Capt. George Wise, was arrested in Cold Spring for public intoxication. While awaiting transfer to the county jail, he told Officer Morrison that he had information to offer: He had witnessed the killing of a railroad watchman at the 30th Street depot in New York City and could provide the names of the gang members involved. Stephen Davenport escaped serious injury when a cow protecting her calf placed her horns on either side of his thigh and threw him. The cow was after a dog that had taken refuge behind its master. Howard Dykeman was playing on a soft couch when a threaded needle went into his leg, eye first. The doctors put the boy under ether but decided it was too deep to remove. The Recorder reported that, "like hundreds of letters," three soldiers found themselves in Cold Spring instead of Cold Spring Harbor, on Long Island. J.G. Southard lent them $10 to buy return train tickets. The newly formed Cold Spring Total Abstinence Society met at Town Hall. Vincent Merritt reported finding two horse blankets on the Breakneck road. William West, 34, of Philipstown, died from head injuries sustained when he jumped or fell from a train as it passed near Cortlandt. He and Thomas Avery, who were traveling together, had asked the conductor and engineer to slow the train so they could jump off. When they refused, West ran to the back of the last car but Avery said he did not see in what manner he left the train. Seeing his friend tumbling beside the tracks, Avery jumped after him but was not injured. Two cows owned by Richard Denny in North Highlands found their way into the barn and ate so much feed that they died. His loss was about $100. 125 Years ago (March 1899) Prof. Treat of Garrison caused a stir while walking his 25 performing dogs around Highland Falls before an appearance. Mr. and Mrs. Joshua Sherwood hosted a party for their neighbors. Grace Sherwood and Ethel Briggs each played the organ while guests elsewhere studied the somber pictures of Milton's Paradise Lost. The gentlemen smoked and argued about the duties of town officers. Supper was served at 10 p.m. St. Philip's Church in Garrison hosted a stereopticon viewing at the Reading Room of a wheeling trip and the cathedrals of England. A submarine mine that was taken out of Santiago of Philipstown harbor in 1898 during the Spanish-American War in Cuba arrived at West Point for its ordnance museum after being cleaned of its tropical barnacles and painted black. It was said to be exactly like the one that blew up the USS Maine in Havana harbor, killing 268 sailors. The Union News Co. secured the option to place bootblack stands at all stations of the Central Hudson, including Cold Spring. The Recorder noted that a well-own document dated at West Point, Aug. 19, 1783, gave the weight of its ...

Q: I'm new to the area, and I wonder if you know where I could find one piece of info. How do the Village of Cold Spring, Village of Nelsonville and Town of Philipstown relate to each other from a governmental perspective? Are both villages in Philipstown, or are all three separate? We live in North Highlands but our mailing address is in Cold Spring. I think we're in Philipstown because we're for sure not in the village. I assume I'm not the only one confused. ~ Julie Sissman A: Far from it. New York has at least three layers of local government, starting with county, town and village; the only states with more layers are Illinois and Indiana. Here is an explanation, using the latest edition of the state's Local Government Handbook. County New York has 62 counties, including Dutchess (home to Beacon) and Putnam (home to Philipstown). Twenty-three counties, including Dutchess (1967) and Putnam (1977), have charters, which allow an administrator (in this case, an elected county executive) who operates independently of the Legislature. City In New York, you live in a city, a town or on a reservation. A city has a charter and usually a mayor. New York has 62 cities; Beacon (pop. 15,541) and Poughkeepsie (pop. 32,736) are the only two in Dutchess. Putnam and 20 other counties do not have cities. Town A town has a supervisor who presides over a board. The state has 933 towns, including Philipstown (pop. 9,731). To confuse things, a city and town can share a name. For instance, there's the City of Newburgh and the Town of Newburgh. Village A village is part of a town and has a mayor or manager. The state has 535 villages, including Cold Spring (pop. 1,993, incorporated 1846) and Nelsonville (pop. 630, incorporated 1855). Seventy-two villages are part of two towns, and five are part of three towns. For drivers, the boundaries of Cold Spring are just past Whitehill Place on northbound Route 9D, just east of Parsonage and Cedar streets on Route 301 and just past Bank Street on southbound 9D. Nelsonville's southern boundary roughly follows Healy Road to Main Street and takes in some of Fishkill Road. Its northern and eastern boundaries touch the Hudson Highlands State Park Preserve. Hamlet Hamlets are part of towns but unincorporated, meaning they don't have their own local government. Philipstown's hamlets include Garrison, North Highlands and Continental Village. Garrison's borders on Route 9D are at Philipstown Park to the north and just past the entrance to the Philipstown Recreation Center to the south. North Highlands extends north from Route 301 on Route 9 to its intersection with Carol Lane; on Route 9D, it extends north from Cold Spring to near the Breakneck Tunnel. Continental Village is east of Route 9 in southern Philipstown. Postal service Your letter address only indicates which post office processes your mail. The Garrison post office serves the 10524 ZIP code (Garrison and Continental Village), while the Cold Spring post office delivers to the rest of Philipstown under 10516.

Join us this Sunday as we wrap up our Ready to Run series. Let's explore the discipleship strategy here at North Highlands and discover what it means to Learn, Love, and Live Like Jesus.

Our third and final value is an outward facing one: You are Wanted. Every church wants to be a welcoming church. But oftentimes the way churches think of “welcoming” is superficial at best or misguided at worst, opting for an approach that (even if unconscious) avoids all moral judgments and encourages a “values-free” environment in the name of being welcoming. Well, here at North Highlands, we believe those two approaches to being a “welcoming” church fall woefully short of the biblical standard; we seek to practice a “welcome” that is both deeper than superficial smiles and higher than politically correctness.

This weekend we pivot from Mission and Vision and begin to focus on a few values that we have here as a church. These values are the shared convictions that we have as a church body that create the culture we enjoy as a church. They are the things that people pick up on or feel when they are with us and this morning we hit on the first of three values we have at North Highlands:  God is God (and we are not). I have heard time and time again from folks how much NHBC values the authority of God and His word in our lives as a church family and I cannot wait to talk about it through Isaiah 40, which is one of the great “God is God” texts in all of scripture. 

The Bible is so good! This weekend is both Palm Sunday and Communion Sunday at North Highlands and our text for Sunday, Psalm 118, is intimately linked to BOTH! Seriously, if this wasn't already one of your favorite Psalms, it will be.

The Community Planning Advisory Councils were created in the unincorporated County to facilitate and encourage direct citizen participation early in the planning process when it is easier for project proponents and decision-makers to respond to public concerns. The primary purpose of the CPAC is to gather community response to proposed projects. The projects reviewed range from broad policy questions that apply countywide, to small development projects of local interest. Entitlements reviewed include General Plan and Zoning Code amendments to plans, zoning matters and use permits.

We don't usually get updates from North Highlands Nordic in the summer... but this morning, NHN ski club president Paula Michaelis tells us about some challenges with its current facility and their plans for a new stand-alone chalet for the cross-country ski club in Cape North.

In this glittering episode, Jenny and Annie uncover the incredible 1869 gold rush in Kildonan, Sutherland in the Far North Highlands. Jenny explains the geology of how gold ended up deep in the Scottish Highlands.

Consider Episode 15 (season two) of in our tribe a love letter to the community of North Highlands/Foothill Farms. Nestled in on the Northside of Sacramento County- North Highlands/Foothill Farms has often been overlooked by local government and seen as "just outside the lines" to participate as an active partner in regional youth development efforts. Gladly all of that seems to be changing and North Highlands/Foothill Farms is showing that they can turn a youth development party out given an opportunity and resources. Join us for a fun and passionate conversation with Crystal Harding and Paris Dye from The Black Child Legacy Campaign as they share how youth development and authentic youth voice/choice is alive and well on the North Side of Sacramento County.

Part 5 of a 5-part series where we interview the five neighborhoods that NeighborLink has invited to part of a 2019 comprehensive research project. Our desire is to learn what makes a healthy neighborhood healthy. These five Fort Wayne neighborhoods have been chosen for their unique socio-economics, demographics, geographic influences and levels of neighbor engagement at the association level. Mark, Laurie, and Randy joined NeighborLink for an insightful conversation about the Pettit Rudisill Neighborhood. Laurie was born and raised in the same home that her and her husband, Randy, have been living in since 1986, which gives tremendous insight into how the neighborhood has changed and stayed the same over the past handful of decades. Mark and his wife migrated to Fort Wayne over 20 years ago and as they got involved in a southside church. Over a couple of years, they continued to move south to their current home that they purchased 17 years ago. Pettit Rudisill is the neighborhood I know the least about and the one I'm most excited to learn about because I think it's a perfect example of a neighborhood that has definitely been impacted by socio-economic factors beginning in the last 60s, but maintains it's strong neighbor-to-neighbor connectivity and health. I drive through it almost every day as I either drop off or pick up my kids from school and travel down it's main corridor. We do a lot of NeighborLink projects in that neighborhood each year and meet some incredible, long-term neighbors there. Rudisill is one of the main east west corridors on the south side, and it is quite the boulevard with bigger homes, wide streets and mature trees covering the landscape. Laurie shares with us that the neighborhood started to change demographically and racially in the late 60's as more African Americans began to buy homes and realtors began to scare many white homeowners out of the neighborhood with fear that their property values would suffer. Laurie's family stayed put, raised their families, and proved that the neighborhood was just fine with an increase in diversity. Pettit Rudisill may have always been the side of Rudisill Boulevard that was represented by the blue-collar working class that made up so much of International Harvester and GE's workforce, but it was and still is a great neighborhood for families looking for affordable, solid housing. Mark, Laurie, and Randy all share that yes, there are some challenges in the neighborhood, the media often portrays the SE side of town as a collective problem and that not all neighborhoods have problems. Mark shares about how vibrant and full of young life the neighborhood is and how his family has grown up benefiting from the neighborhood. “People are people,” Mark shares, which is so true. Everyone is trying to do their best with what they have and search for a quality of life that meets their desires. We all want to be known, loved, cared for, and part of something. Pettit Rudisill is a solid neighborhood with great neighbors. I hope this project helps share the bright sides of PR and the SE side of Fort Wayne to begin changing the narrative that our community believes about the southside. PR talks about the increased investment of outside groups, new neighbors, and a major infrastructure project that the City of Fort Wayne is going to start this summer. With a huge increase in housing activity just to bit further to the west on the same street, I can imagine PR is going to be on the come up really soon. We're looking forward to our next phase of the 2019 research project, which includes a two-hour workshop with neighbors from each of the five neighborhoods: North Highlands, Williams Woodland, West Central, Hoagland Masterson and Petite Rudisill.

Part 1 of a 5 part series where we interview each of the 5 neighborhoods we've invited into a comprehensive research projects NeighborLink is facilitating in 2019. Our desire is to learn what makes a healthy neighborhood, healthy. Each of the 5 Fort Wayne neighborhoods have unique socio-economics, demographics, geographic influences, and levels of neighbor engagement at the association level. Kay and Bailey, two residents of the North Highlands Neighborhood, join us for a conversation about their neighborhood. They spend time describing their neighborhood, some of the projects they've been able to accomplish successfully, a new event that went extremely well in 2018 at a brand new park they helped make happen, and some of the challenges of getting neighbors connecting, informed, and active. Kay is a long-time resident of over 30 years and has been the active president for a long-time. Kay and others have advocated for and helped make some of the most comprehensive infrastructure projects happen in their neighborhood that we've not seen in other neighborhoods. Between street and sidewalk improvements, safety measures with the police, and the conversion of an old school into a public park. They have a lot to teach other neighborhoods about how to work with local government in order to improve your neighborhood. Bailey and her young family moved into North Highlands less than a decade ago and have been getting more actively involved in the past few years in a more organic and neighbor-to-neighbor way. Bailey works hard to facilitate the social connectivity of the neighbors through more engaging conversations on modern communication platforms, asking for help with even the smallest of needs such as whether anyone had any tomatoes left from fall harvest rather than running to the store, and making sure neighbors know who to reach out to if there are issues. Bailey is growing in her leadership and desires to help create the neighborhood that her family and neighbors want to have. North Highlands is a relatively smaller neighborhood located just about a mile north of downtown Fort Wayne. The homes are of average size between 1200-2200 square feet and remind you of a very early suburb in terms of street layout and common age of housing stock. They have the highest median income of any of the 5 neighborhoods we've researched and have the least amount of racial diversity. Residents tend to be a bit older as it's a great starter neighborhood for younger families and a great place to downsize and retire. The smaller housing sizes make it hard for growing families to stay in their homes without feeling the size of their home closing in. North Highlands is a very popular downtown collar neighborhood and has homes turn over relatively quickly when on the market. NeighborLink volunteers helped over 100 homeowners in the zip code of North Highlands in 2018 and spend quite a bit of time in this area. We're looking forward to our next phase of the project, which includes a two-hour workshop with neighbors.

We talk to two residents, Kay and Bailey, from the North Highlands Neighborhood Association about the characteristics of their neighborhood and what they think makes their neighborhood healthy. Kay has lived in the neighborhood for over 30 years and been extremely active, including being the neighborhood president for a number of years. Kay and others advocated for and led some of the most comprehensive public infrastructure projects in a neighborhood setting of any other neighborhood we've seen. Bailey and her family moved into North Highlands a few years ago and has quickly taken a more organic role to be active in the neighborhood by leverage modern communication tools, encouraging neighbors to get involved, and taking responsibility to create the type of community neighbors want. Their conversation illustrates what we're beginning to see more and more as multi-generational leadership merges together to lead neighborhoods.

Listen to Kris Mccullough and I have one of the most interesting conversations I have ever had in my life, let alone on this podcast!   Kris and his wife run "Kim Steel and Associates" and they are, to this day, the only group we have ever considered merging with to the point we ran hiring together and started structuring it out.   The guy is a genius.   So here is "Kris on Business, Combat, Jazz, Marijuana, and Burning it all down!"   As musicians we compare Jazz to business, and hip hop to jazz, we talk about growing up half-black in North Highlands in the 90's, we discuss the marijuana "green rush", and how cannabis can help veterans with PTSD and pain management, we discuss prescription drugs in the veteran community, going to jazz clubs with dad, analyzing the father son relationship on all it's complexities while dealing with currently losing his own father, being a better person today, not waiting for the afterlife, looking for answers in your parent's lives, manifesting, "It's not easy taking it easy" when your mind goes a million miles an hour, having kids listening to Cardone, pushing into Iraq, multiple combat deployments, PTSD, rehab, PTSD and active duty, resources for help, being a libertarian and taxes, burn out and burning it all down, energy, discussing veterans winning, meeting his wife in Iraq, and taming your inner beast.

  Yes, it is time to grieve again. When a fan favorite gets blindsided, it often catches us all off guard, leaving many fans sad and angry. The Listener Feedback shows are a great way to commiserate, process those feelings and get ready for the next surprise because the Survivor roller coaster is going to keep screaming down the tracks with more big drops and sharp turns ahead. We are both excited and anxious to see what happens next! We want to thank and acknowledge everyone who contributed to another great LF show.
