My parents were married on that day in 1941, so this is their 80th anniversary. In this house the day involved ªowers, him to me, and cookies, me to him. The ªowers are the lovely sentimental daisies as always. The cookies weren’t great, I’m sorry to say. And as we raised girls, Valentine’s day was often tricky, as at least one girl didn’t have a current guy to celebrate with and so the rest of us had to sort of hide our chocolates and cards. Nothing is ever easy. And my mind is really dwelling on the matter of the Arts Council mini grants, as the deadline for new applications is February 28th. One of the items involved in the paperwork of these grants is a grant accountability report. About eight months after a person or group has received a grant, I send out a request for accountability on the use of the funds. This is really a fun time for me, as I get a glimpse of the di›erence that we have been able to make in some- one’s artistic endeavors. For instance, one cycle we gave money to the Southern Utah Rock Club. When I sent out a request for a report, the reply was quick and so gratifying. Here is a quote. “We used our award to buy the tools and supplies needed to conduct casting classes. We have conducted the class 6 times and allowed 24 students to take the class.” Although I have no idea what casting entails, I understand that is something that increased the club’s o›erings to interested rock artists in Cedar City, and it just makes me happy to think of the ripple e›ects of dropping that modest amount of money in the pool and seeing the concentric circles widen and widen. Six months ago, the Council granted the Mountaintop Sound Band funds to produce their ˆrst CD. It was just released this month with the title “Long Time Comin” and features some names you will know but from di›erent contexts, maybe. Steve Swift does all things musical, and in company with April McPherson was a favorite at the Arts Council’s Final Friday Art Walks. Chuck Triplett is a crossover from a rock band, but to think of violinist Derek Wood on the banjo and Tom McFarland on the harmonica—that is a real surprise! American folksong and bluegrass are the resultant sound, I think, and the CD is available for purchase at https:// www.stevenswift.com/store/. If you were to apply for a grant, I might be talking about you in cold February next year. 10 WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2021 COMMUNITY & PERSONAL INTEREST IN LIFE IRON COUNTY IRON COUNTY'S HISTORIC Concern for Water by Jessica STAHELI connection between water and whatever other irrigation, or 45 pounds of grain per resident lot FOR IRON COUNTY TODAY element of history might be discussed.

It was once said, “Scottie Day will be the fi rst and last man in Brian Head.” When there wasn’t snow to keep him busy, he still managed to work in the mountains with the US Forest Service, building roads and fi ghting fi res.
