VOL. 29, NO. 33 TUESDAY, AUG. 14, 1990 THREE SECTIONS, 40 PAGES 50 CENTS — it was definitely not on our itinerary' t.* Islanders injured in California balloon accident By Steve Ruediger Islander staff writer Juanita Hermes and Ginny Bissell of Sanibel were among 14 people injured in a ballooning aecident in Napa Valley, Calif., last Tuesday, Aug. 7. Hermes and her husband, Jim, and Bissell and her husband, Don, were on vacation in California when the accident occurred. At the end of a scenic trip over Napa Valley, strong winds forced the balloon basket that the Hermes and Bissclls were riding in to bounce and slide along the ground before slamming into a school building. The wind- swept balloon then dragged the basket across the roof of the building before it all finally came to a rest in a nearby field. Bissell suffered a broken collarbone and five broken ribs. Hermes suffered a broken ankle. Both were hospitalized. Their husbands suffered cuts and bruises. The unusually strong wind caused six out of 12 balloons that were aloft at the lime to crash. Hermes, interviewed by phone at the Queen of the Valley Hospital, Photo by Al Francis/Napa (California) Register said that it had been "a very enjoyable balloon ride" until Emergency medical personnel treat an injured balloonist taken from the gondola visible in the Please see BALLOON, page 15A right center of the photo.

Diving conditions this week have been very good. We've been taking advantage of the good weather to get out for another night dive and some great day trips. I also heard some reports from the Florida Keys of more successful lobstcring throughout this past week. We went out on the 70-foot ledges off of Redfish Pass and ran into large schools of amberjack and Atlantic spadefish. We've also been seeing a lot of barracuda off the 55-foot ledges off of Sanibel. This is unusual to see so many because barracuda usually prefer to hang around structures, such as wrecks. Surface temperature: 87 degrees. Bottom temperature: 87 degrees at 55- # foot depth; 83 degrees at 100-foot depth. Visibility: 20-50 feet at 55-foot depth; 40-100 feet at 100-foot depth.

"Some collectors of shells do not collect shells as much as beaches," Burr said, pointing out that the shells which reach the beaches are already worn. Therefore, he said, serious shell collectors dive for them or have them trawled up in nets. WEATHER Burr also said a serious shell collector knows the story WATCH behind each shell including when and where it was found, by whom and in what depth of water. Some of the shells in his personal collection are from Last week's temperatures in paradise were Sanibel, Burr said, adding that the number from Sanibel recorded at the Sanibel-Captiva Chamber of should increase very soon.

Situated on a five-acre lot in orchard country a mile away from any shops, the house is about an hours' drive from London and the English channel. Both families met during the Walters' previous visit to the islands, in response to an announcement the Walters placed around the islands when looking for people interested in home swapping on their holiday. They received about 14 responses to that announcement, and now have a list of several other homeowners on the islands they could swap with during future vacations. "We saw this place. We knew what we were getting," Mike Walters said of the Conroys* home. "They didn't quite know what they'd be getting." They've yet to hear any complaints. With their six-week vacation quickly Coming to a close, the Walters offered some insight on their impressions of the American lifestyle, both in work and play. The Walters prefer the escapades of "The Donald," American millionaire Donald Trump, over the comparably drab Royal Family. An eyebrow was raised at the pictures of Charles and Diana they found hanging from the walls of the Mucky Duck restaurant. ^ "I think the Royal Family is more popular here than there," Mike said. The name "Mucky Duck" was an amusement unto itself, he said. Pubs in England which sport a white swan as their logo have been nicknamed the Mucky Duck, but Captiva's very own is the only establishment he's seen that actually uses a none-too- tidy duck for their logo. The Walters also liken their family to the Simpsons, the controversial cartoon characters from The Walters family - (left to right) Daniel, Maggie, Lucy and Mike -- enjoys the sights from the the Fox television show. Daughter Lucy even plays dock behind its temporary Captiva home. the saxophone, just like her cartoon counterpart Lisa.
