Holiday tour of homes offers inspiration, benefits local charities

"christmas on the river" holiday home tour hosted by the spade and trowel garden club offers seasonal inspiration while benefiting local nonprofits..

For many years before the pandemic, a holiday tradition for many was the holiday tour of seasonally decorated homes hosted by the Spade and Trowel Garden Club. After four years, the tour returns.

“The home tour, which has long been a must-do outing during the run-up to Christmas, will be the first since 2019, before the Covid epidemic," said Mary Marks, president of the garden club.

With a theme of “Christmas on the River,” the tour features two stunning Merritt Island homes decorated to the nines for the holidays and is one of the earliest holiday events of the season. The tour runs from 1 to 4 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 15.

The tour provides visitors with decorating ideas, a chance to pick up Christmas goodies and a feel-good day enjoying the Space Coast during the best weather. Both riverside residences - one on South Tropical Trail and the other near historic Georgianna Church - are located in outstandingly pretty locations. Both owners wanted to capture the beauty of the river and feel as if they incorporated their homes onto the sites

Kristi Everingham, owner of one of the featured houses, enjoys a large family with plenty of cheer to share.

“We embrace the holidays around here,” she said.

“We have neighborhood caroling we do every year with our friends in Crooked Mile. We have an annual cookie-baking tradition that started with my mom and I but has expanded to include other family members and friends.”

The home was inspired by traditional Florida Cracker architecture and reflects the family’s passion for the Indian River.  

The Wall home, the other on the tour, also embraces the natural features of their property. The house was designed by interior designer Cynthia Wall to capture the views of the property’s heritage oak trees. She relied on natural materials for a seamless transition of outdoor to indoor.

Photography and art throughout the home, featuring the work of Margaret Tolbert and Roman Loranc, also repeat the love of nature. A passion for reading is also reflected throughout the home, as is husband Scott’s association with basketball as a referee for the National Basketball Association.

Outdoor swags and wreathes are adorned with oyster shells from the Wall’s Annual Christmas Oyster Roast that brings over 75 friends to the river for roasted oysters over a fire pit with special invitations to join the Official Shucker Crew.

A sale of hand-made seasonal crafts and baked goods created by the club members will be held in conjunction with the home tour at the Provost Building of Georgianna Church , 3890 Old Settlement Road.

The three locations are just a few minutes’ drive from each other, and visitors can start the tour at any of the locations.

Nonprofits Candlelighters , Walk on Water and Life Recaptured will be getting a bonus Christmas gift from the tour, since all proceeds will be donated to these local charities. Candlelighters is dedicated to helping children with cancer; Walk on Water, a horse-based ministry, helps special needs children, and Life Recaptured operates safe homes for individuals recovering from the effects of human trafficking.

“We are very excited to resume this home tour to enhance our fundraising efforts,” Marks said.

Is 1 day enough for Sedona? Here are the best things to see and do on a short visit

There’s no mistaking the red rock landscape of Sedona. A skyline of towering sandstone formations is eroded into fanciful shapes, a landscape that feels exotic yet familiar at the same time.

Sedona is a small town chock-full of art galleries, shops, restaurants and spas. Yet it’s all wrapped in spectacular national forest land veined with splashy creeks, hiking and biking trails and rugged back roads. If you can’t find a little piece of paradise somewhere in Sedona, you’re just not trying very hard.

There’s so much to see and do in Sedona that a week can fly by. But the easy accessibility of red rock country also makes Sedona one of Arizona’s best day trips, especially from Phoenix. Just a short drive up Interstate 17, then along State Route 179 and you’re suddenly rolling into the Village of Oak Creek sprawled at the base of Bell Rock. Your adventure is just beginning.

Here’s how to do Sedona in a single glorious day.

Secret Sedona hikes: 5 scenic trails you won't have to share with crowds of people

Morning: Bell Rock hike, Jeep tour, Chapel of the Holy Cross

If you need to fuel up after your drive, stop at Red Rock Café. This locals hangout is known for friendly service and heaping portions of home-cooked breakfast and brunch selections. You’ll find something for everyone on the menu that includes freakishly ginormous cinnamon rolls, Belgian waffles and blue corn huevos rancheros. 100 Verde Valley School Road, 928-284-1441, www.redrockcafeaz.com .

The best way to experience the beauty of Sedona is on foot. For one of the easiest hikes, stop at the Bell Rock parking area on SR 179. From here you can enjoy a gentle stroll along the flat, wide Bell Rock Pathway. The popular route skirts the sandstone flanks of Bell Rock and rambles for 3.6 miles. It also connects to several other trails if you want to explore more, or turn around whenever you get the urge.

To escape the crowds and enjoy a little more of a workout, peel off Bell Rock Pathway onto Courthouse Butte Loop. The moderate 4.2-mile route swings through shaggy meadows and woodlands circling both Courthouse Butte and Bell Rock before rejoining the pathway. A Red Rock Pass ($5) is required and available from the trailhead kiosk. 928-203-2900, www.fs.usda.gov/coconino .

If you prefer to let someone else show you the sights, sign up for a jeep tour. In this craggy angular landscape, these bouncy exploratory rides have become a signature Sedona experience.

An army of brightly colored jeeps whisks visitors into the sandstone outback. Each jeep company offers specialty rides ranging from gentle, scenic excursions to boulder-climbing thrill-fests. Visit vortexes or overlooks or ancient Native American villages. The shortest tours last about 90 minutes. A list of jeep companies can be found at www.visitsedona.com .

Tucked amid the natural beauty found along SR 179 is one of Sedona’s most distinctive architectural wonders. The Chapel of the Holy Cross was completed in 1957, built between two pillars of rock.

The interior of the chapel is simple and unadorned. A few benches, some tapestries and flickering candles create a meditative oasis, while soft sunlight streams through the floor-to-ceiling window. Everyone is welcome. 780 Chapel Road, 928-282-4069, www.chapeloftheholycross.com .

Where to eat in Sedona: From the best breakfast to dinner with an epic view at Mariposa

Midday: Tlaquepaque, Cowboy Club

Now you’re ready for a little retail therapy. Browse the distinctive galleries at Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village. This feels like walking into a different land, in a different time.

Tlaquepaque is a collection of Spanish-style buildings reminiscent of a Mexican hamlet. Cobblestone walkways meander past vine-covered walls and beneath stone archways. Graceful Arizona sycamores shade the courtyards where shoppers stroll past splashing fountains and beds bursting with flowers.

And if you have a thirst for a local beer or wine or a specialty cocktail, stop in at the Secret Garden Café, long a cornerstone of Tlaquepaque. 336 SR 179, 928-282-4838, www.tlaq.com .

Enjoy lunch with a view from the streetside patio of the Cowboy Club. Located in Uptown Sedona, this was once a storied saloon for local ranchers and Hollywood stars. It’s now a slightly upscale eatery with an eclectic menu that ranges from cactus fries to vegetable enchiladas to elk chops. 241 SR 89A, 928-282-4200, www.cowboyclub.com .   

Afternoon: Uptown Sedona shopping, spas, Amitabha Stupa

After your meal, you can walk off a few calories among the shops and galleries spread amid the scenic blocks of Uptown. Get a jump on holiday shopping while reveling in some colorful panoramas. Even in the heart of town, the stone formations crowd in close. This is one of the things that make Sedona special. The startling beauty is not confined to designated overlooks or roadways. It follows you every step of your visit.

Tip: The Visitor Center is at 331 Forest Road in Uptown. 800-288-7336, www.visitsedona.com .

Another option is to embrace a little personal pampering. Sedona is known as a place of positive energy and healing and you don’t need to check in to a luxurious resort to experience it. Several day spas offer a range of treatments including massages, facials and pedicures lasting just an hour or two.

Try Namti Spa (928-282-7737, www.namti.com ), Sedona’s New Day Spa (928-282-7502, www.sedonanewdayspa.com ), or A Spa for You (928-282-3895, www.aspaforyou.com ) to recharge and refresh.   

Another popular destination for the spiritually inclined is the Amitabha Stupa and Peace Park. Set on 14 acres at the base of Thunder Mountain, the site is open from dawn to dusk for visitors of all faiths for prayer, healing and meditation.

Tiger Woods’ TGR Ventures, David Blitzer partner on TGL’s sixth team ownership group

Jupiter Links Golf Club to represent Jupiter, Florida, in TGL

Change Text Size

JUPITER, Florida -- TGL presented by SoFi, the new tech-forward, prime-time team golf league developed by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s TMRW Sports in partnership with the PGA TOUR, on Tuesday announced the formation of Jupiter Links Golf Club, the sixth and final TGL team, with an ownership group led by Tiger Woods’ TGR Ventures and David Blitzer. Additionally, Woods is the first TGL player to be announced on Jupiter Links GC’s roster. The announcement was made Tuesday by Woods, Blitzer and Mike McCarley, CEO, TMRW Sports and TGL.

“Through its use of technology, TGL is a modern twist of traditional golf and ultimately will make the sport I love more accessible.," said Woods. "Having the opportunity to not only compete, but also own a team to represent Jupiter is an exciting next chapter for me. I expect Jupiter Links GC to showcase the golf culture of my hometown as we compete against the best players in the world.”

Added Blitzer: “Tiger Woods is one of the most influential and iconic athletes in the history of sports, and I’m thrilled to partner with him to form Jupiter Links GC. Golf is a sport that has a proven ability to bring people together from all over the world and I’m excited by the potential reach and impact we can have as a team and league. By harnessing the power of technology and innovation and leveraging the skill and expertise of the game’s most transcendent and accomplished player, our team is well positioned for long-term success."

McCarley noted: “Tiger Woods and David Blitzer form a winning combination as the last of TGL’s original six ownership groups for our inaugural season. Tiger and David are prepared to be great business partners with the league and other teams, but both are super competitive in their daily lives and we expect that competitiveness to be on full display inside the SoFi Center in January."

TGR Ventures’ portfolio also includes The Woods Jupiter, TGR Design, TGR Foundation, Full Swing Golf, TMRW Sports Group and T-Squared Social. TGR unites Woods' entrepreneurial and philanthropic endeavors off the course under a single parent brand driven by a mindset, method and pursuit of mastery.

Blitzer is personally investing in Jupiter Links GC and is the first to hold equity in five North American major sports teams. Blitzer founded Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment with Josh Harris and is co-chairman and managing partner of its portfolio highlighted by the Philadelphia 76ers, New Jersey Devils, Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., and Joe Gibbs Racing. Blitzer also is a co-owner of the Cleveland Guardians and Washington Commanders. Additionally, Blitzer is a General Partner of Crystal Palace Football Club and owns stakes in a variety of soccer clubs around the globe, including Real Salt Lake of Major League Soccer and the Utah Royals of the National Women’s Soccer League.

Team brands, front office staff and team rosters will continue to be unveiled, as will the inaugural schedule and other operational and fan-centric elements of TGL presented by SoFi. The six team ownership groups’ combined sports team ownership experience spans the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, Premier League, NASCAR, MLS and NWSL:

• Inaugural season: Fifteen regular season matches followed by semifinals and finals matches to air on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPN+ in the U.S.

Jared Leto scales Empire State Building to promote upcoming tour

Jared Leto got about 30 seconds closer to Mars on Thursday when he scaled an iconic New York landmark.

The actor and singer climbed a portion of the outside of the Empire State Building on Nov. 9, making a journey to the top of one of the world’s signature skyscrapers. He then spoke about it in an exclusive interview with TODAY.

“I was more excited than nervous to tell you the truth,” Leto said. “But I have to be honest, it was very, very hard. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be.

“Just the endurance that it took, the stamina that it took, and it was very sharp.”

Leto, 51, showed off the evidence of those sharp corners when he held up his bloody left hand.

He said he attempted the feat to cross off a coveted item on his bucket list, and also to promote the upcoming world tour of his band, Thirty Seconds to Mars, that will run from March to September in 2024.

“It’s incredible,” he said. “To watch the sun rise overlooking the city that’s meant so much to me. Ever since I was a kid, New York stood for the place that you went to make your dreams come true," he said.

“And as a young kid, I wanted to be an artist, and New York was the place that you came to be an artist. And the Empire State Building was always that symbol for me.”

The “WeCrashed” star climbed the east side of the building from floors 86 to 104, a roughly 20-minute climb to a point nearly 1,300 feet up in the air.

Leto reached the part of the building that lights up and then climbed all three of its tiers until he completed his ascent at the ice shield, which is at the base of the building’s famous antenna.

He also received an emotional boost along the way.

“I made it to the top, and I was just saying, I saw my mother in the window of the 80th floor, and that was a nice surprise,” Leto said.

He is the first person to ever legally climb to the top of the Empire State Building, officials for the landmark confirmed to TODAY.

“I’ve always had a fascination with the Empire State Building,” he said. “And I love to climb.”

During his ascent, the “House of Gucci” actor was in full climbing gear with ropes that secured him in case he lost his grip.

Craig Melvin then asked him where he will climb next after conquering the Empire State Building.

“Into bed,” Leto joked. “You climb right into bed.”

While he is fond of national parks like Yosemite, Leto particularly enjoys urban climbing.

“I do like to climb buildings in cities,” he said. “It’s a really fun thing to do.”

The upcoming tour is in support of the sixth studio album for Thirty Seconds to Mars, the rock band Leto formed in 1998 with his older brother, Shannon. The group released “It’s the End of the World but It’s a Beautiful Day” in September.

The “Morbius” star’s King Kong moment on the Empire State Building was just his latest daredevil moment.

The actor and singer’s past stunts include scaling a hotel wall in Berlin without a harness and bungee jumping onto his concert stage in front of thousands. He’s also shared videos on Instagram of him  scaling a hotel wall  in Berlin with no harness and  bungee jumping into a massive crowd  at a Thirty Seconds to Mars concert.

Leto is also an accomplished rock climber who counts “Free Solo” star and legendary climber Alex Honnold as a friend. He directed a five-part documentary in 2016 called “Great Wide Open” in which he explored several of the country’s iconic national parks like Yosemite and Yellowstone.

Leto is also known for his quirky fashion, including  dressing up as a cat  at last year’s Met Gala and bringing a  replica of his own head  to the 2019 Met Gala.

When he’s not rock climbing, acting or walking a runway, he can be found on stage. The upcoming tour for Thirty Seconds to Mars —their first headline tour in five years — will run across Latin America, Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand.

Again and Again

By Jonathan Evison Dutton: 336 pages, $28 If you buy books linked on our site, The Times may earn a commission from Bookshop.org , whose fees support independent bookstores.

Eugene Miles, the 106-year old hero of Jonathan Evison ’s “ Again and Again ,” spends most of his time alone in his room, waiting to die at the Desert Greens elder care facility in the Mojave, whose surrounding mountain ranges are “beautiful [and] timeless, like me.”

Those who say life is short are misinformed, he says. “Life is not a breathless sprint to the grave, gone in a heartbeat, but an odyssey that stretches on and on into eternity.” Eugene, you see, was born during the 10th century reign of Abd al-Rahman III in the Caliphate of Córdoba.

In his eight previous novels , Evison has demonstrated a roving curiosity, his settings ranging from the prehistoric Cascade mountains to modern-day suburbia. He’s also faced the fury of book banners who objected to gay sex depicted in 2018’s “Lawn Boy.”

In “Again and Again,” Evison performs writing magic; despite its implausibility, I committed myself fully to Eugene’s 1,100-odd years of life, immersed in tales of adventure and passion that are almost too good to be true.

Spiritual awakening via giant cactus: Only L.A. author Melissa Broder could pull it off

Melissa Broder’s previous novel, ‘Milk Fed,’ showed her talent for making reality uncanny. In ‘Death Valley,’ a woman finds redemption in a giant cactus.

Oct. 3, 2023

Before his present incarnation, Eugene has been Euric, Pietro, Kiri, Amura and York, switching genders and continents with every rebirth. He also inhabited a cat — Whiskers — who lived as Oscar Wilde ’s feline companion and matched his owner’s wit as he observed human behavior from his tufted perch.

Now, Eugene wishes to gain a final rest from the cycle, to be released from the emotional burden he has carried since his days as a cutpurse in Moorish Spain. Euric was a Visigoth , “the bastard son of a conquered tribe”; unable to find any work, he became a “not particularly good” thief, which is how he met Gaya, the one true love he would search for in every one of his succeeding lives.

Wishing now to die in peace, he has isolated himself from anyone he knew as Eugene. Without a visitor in eight years, he’s lonely, even if by choice. When Angel, the young housekeeper who cleans his room every night, first appears, Eugene shuns him, but eventually they form a bond cemented by Angel’s eagerness to hear his tales.

There is a long Western tradition of nested stories told to keep the world at bay, going as far back as Sheherazade . In Giovanni Boccaccio’s 14 century work “ The Decameron ,” 10 people who have fled Florence during the Black Death spin stories to repel the darkness of despair.

Very much in that tradition, “Again and Again” is a novel mirroring the experience of lockdown . All too aware of impending death, Eugene spins stories to draw the young man closer to him. Thus the two realities — everyday life in a care home and Eugene’s centuries-spanning-tales — play against each other. I was gripped by both.

Jonathan Evison on hitting bottom and becoming a writer [video]

April 24, 2013

As Eugene informs him, Gaya rescued Euric at great risk to herself after he cut the purse of a very powerful man. Euric was smitten but suspicious, as Gaya belonged to a rebel group bent on driving out their Moorish conquerors.

Eugene entertains Angel as the younger man cleans the room, and eventually the two men meet for daily lunches. Angel has problems of his own — he has alienated his pregnant girlfriend — and Eugene offers romantic advice gleaned from his many lives. Their friendship becomes a give and take as the two men support each other during difficult times.

Eventually, Evison introduces the character of Wayne Francis, a mental health professional whose job is to monitor the psychiatric well-being of Desert Greens’ residents. Wayne’s voice clashes jarringly with Eugene’s symphony of stories. Despite Wayne’s gentle questions, I found myself resentful of him; he was breaking the spell.

“All I’ve ever wanted in any of my incarnations was to connect with another wholly and authentically,” says Eugene, thinking back on Gaya. “Deprived of meaningful connections, we are ciphers at best, and at worst invisible. To be seen, to be accepted, warts and all, that has been my greatest aspiration for over a thousand years. To be adored for my flaws.” A cipher is also a secret code, a means of hiding information even as it is communicated.

Wayne has his own reasons for questioning Eugene (no spoilers), and his role as interlocutor takes the novel to its own fantastical, delightful conclusion. Wayne functions as the voice of Evison’s readers — or at least their innate skepticism.

What novelist Cai Emmons taught us about how to die

Cai Emmons, a prolific novelist of the West, died Monday, after running a blog after her ALS diagnosis that has much to teach us about facing the inevitable.

Jan. 3, 2023

The power of the author grows with his ability to suspend disbelief. Writers do this through a combination of specific details, sensory descriptions of a world that comes to life in the reading or listening. But all authors are by definition unreliable narrators, imposing meaning and structure on a world full of chaos and miscommunication. A skilled one can reach inside us and widen our emotional worlds.

Eugene is such a writer — which is to say he can spin a good yarn. It’s how he’s made connections with those in his life, including the woman he loved in 20th century Los Angeles. But now she is dead, and he is dejected.

And so he — and Evison — arrive at an impasse. To gain the intimacy he longs for, he must set aside his beautifully crafted tales and pick up the more prosaic, imperfect medium of shared personal truths. To transform his listeners into friends, he must embrace the risk of being misunderstood.

The joy of watching Evison braid together multiple stories from Eugene’s lives (and the 105 years of this existence) is akin to witnessing a master carpet weaver work out a fantastically intricate rug. Look closely enough, and you’ll see the understitch in every storyteller’s pattern: the desire to be admired and loved for the beautiful thing you’ve made.

I would gladly have spent many more pages with the magical tapestry of “Again and Again.” In revealing the tricks of his trade, its author exposes the tender heart of his craft.

Adam long breaks 31-year-old pga tour record for consecutive fairways hit, share this article.

Adam Long can’t miss (the fairway).

Long set a new PGA Tour record on Thursday morning in the opening round of the 2023 Butterfield Bermuda Championship at Port Royal Golf Club. Long hit his 60th straight fairway when he found the short grass on his second hole, a par-5, after going 56-for-56 last week at the World Wide Technology Championship, breaking Brian Claar’s record of 59 straight fairways hit, set in 1992. His streak goes back to his final two holes at the Shriners Children’s Open.

In fact, Long hit every fairway on his front nine and his first two on the back nine, meaning the record now sits at 67 straight fairways hit.

And it could keep growing, too.

Ukraine war: Roman Abramovich 'back in Moscow' after being 'spotted at Israeli airport' as EU 'agrees to impose sanctions' on Chelsea owner

The UK government hit the billionaire with sanctions last week and said the decision was made because of his "close relationship for decades" with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich - hit with sanctions by the UK government over his alleged links to Russian President Vladimir Putin - is thought to have landed in Moscow after apparently being seen at an airport in Israel.

A jet linked to the Russian-Israeli billionaire landed in the Russian capital on Tuesday morning following a brief stop in Istanbul, en route from Tel Aviv, according to Flightradar24.

He is believed to have been spotted in a VIP lounge at Ben Gurion airport on Monday shortly before a jet linked to him took off for Istanbul and later landed in the Turkish city.

Reuters said it had obtained a photo showing him in the lounge and wearing a mask under his chin. A video also appears to show him at the airport, removing his jacket. But the news agency could not confirm if the oligarch boarded the flight.

The large Gulfstream business jet had arrived in Israel from Moscow late on Sunday, tracking websites showed.

Israeli restrictions imposed on some private jets since the Russian invasion of Ukraine mean it could not have remained on the ground for more than 24 hours.

Mr Abramovich's yacht £460 million yacht Solaris was moving off the coast of Albania on Tuesday morning with the status "awaiting orders", according to Refinitiv ship tracking data.

Until Monday night, its destination was shown as Turkey after leaving Montenegro but that was removed late yesterday.

European Union diplomats have agreed to add him to the EU's list of Russian billionaires sanctioned following Moscow's military offensive, according to two sources.

The Chelsea owner was sanctioned in the UK last week with the British government saying the move was due to Mr Abramovich having a "close relationship for decades" with Mr Putin.

Mr Abramovich will have his assets frozen, will also face a prohibition on transactions with UK individuals and businesses and will have a travel ban forbidding him to enter the UK.

He denies having close ties to the Russian president.

Britain has so far sanctioned about 20 oligarchs, including Mr Abramovich and Alisher Usmanov, freezing their properties across London and banning them from coming to Britain.

The new sanctions by the EU will hit people active in the Russian steel industry and others who provide financial services, military products and technology to the Russian state, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on Friday.

One EU diplomat told Reuters no concerns were raised about the new sanctions, suggesting Mr Abramovich's listing "will go through" and his assets will be frozen.

But, as the billionaire also holds a Portuguese passport, it means that Portugal could refrain from imposing on him the asset freeze and travel ban decided at EU level, a second EU official said.

Victoria Nuland, the US under secretary of state for political affairs, said recently that Washington was asking Israel to join in financial and export sanctions against Russia.

And Israeli foreign minister Yair Lapid said his country "will not be a route to bypass sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States and other Western countries".

The sanctions came as Evraz - the UK-listed steel and coal business part-owned by Mr Abramovich - was deleted from London stock indexes.

The UK sanctions have also impacted last season's Champions League winners Chelsea, who have been thrown into disarray .

Mr Abramovich initially proposed to place the club in the care of its foundation and then put it up for sale for £3bn, with several billionaires including property developer Nick Candy linked with the takeover.

However, the sanctions imposed on him in the UK means his sale of the club may not be possible.

The Stamford Bridge club will be given a special licence to continue operating, under limited terms and will be unable to sell new tickets, sign players or extend contracts and open retail outfits.

The sale of the club could still go ahead if the government issues another licence.

On 11 March, Chelsea's bank account was temporarily suspended by Barclays while it assesses the licence which Chelsea has been given and sponsors including Three UK and Hyundai suspended their association with the club.
