“Shrine to Longfellow's "Evangeline" in Acadia,” Brantford Expositor. March 28, 1930. Page 12. --- Memorial Chapel and Statue of Evangeline, at Grand Pre, the locale of Longfellow's well-known poem, "Evangeline." A pilgrimage to this spot, sacred to descendants of the Acadians, will be made this summer by 200 residents of the Teche country, South Louisiana, the district to which the greater number of the Acadians were taken when they were forced to leave their native land in 1775 -(S.

We conducted check engine light diagnostics on a GMC Acadia.

Using a scan tool, our technician was able to monitor the engine coolant temperature and a non-contact pyrometer to check the thermostat’s temperature. 

The thermostat is failing to increase to the specified opening temperature of 194 degrees. We are recommending a new thermostat.

The intake manifold and fuel pipe must be removed to replace the part, which determines the amount of coolant that travels between the engine and radiator.

A malfunctioning thermostat is one possible cause of an overheating engine.

9 Best Places to See Fall Foliage in the US in September

As the scorching heat of summer gives way to the crisp coolness of autumn, nature paints its landscapes with vibrant hues of red, orange, and gold. September marks the beginning of the fall foliage season in the United States, when forests transform into breathtaking canvases of color. From coast to coast, there are numerous destinations that offer a front-row seat to this awe-inspiring spectacle. In this article, we'll explore the 9 best places to see fall foliage in the US in September, where nature's beauty knows no bounds.

Vermont

When it comes to fall foliage, Vermont often tops the list of must-visit destinations. The Green Mountain State lives up to its name, as its rolling hills and dense forests burst into shades of crimson and amber. The drive along Vermont's scenic routes, such as Route 100, is a treat for the senses. In September, the vibrant colors of sugar maples and birch trees are simply mesmerizing.

New Hampshire

Neighboring Vermont, New Hampshire offers its own spectacular display of fall foliage. The White Mountains and the Kancamagus Highway are particularly renowned for their panoramic vistas. The combination of deep reds, vivid oranges, and brilliant yellows against the backdrop of majestic mountains is a sight to behold.

Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee and North Carolina

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, straddling the border between Tennessee and North Carolina, is a treasure trove of fall foliage. In September, the park's diverse range of trees, including oaks, hickories, and maples, create a stunning mosaic of colors. The Clingmans Dome Road offers breathtaking views of this natural spectacle.

Aspen, Colorado

Known for its iconic groves of aspen trees, Aspen, Colorado, is a fall foliage destination that's a cut above the rest. September brings a golden transformation to the mountains surrounding the town. The Maroon Bells, reflected in crystal-clear alpine lakes, surrounded by shimmering aspen leaves, create an enchanting scene that photographers and nature enthusiasts can't resist.

Acadia National Park, Maine

Acadia National Park, situated along the rugged coastline of Maine, is another gem on this list. As summer crowds dissipate, September brings a quieter charm to the park, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in the stunning landscapes. The juxtaposition of fiery foliage against the Atlantic Ocean's deep blue is a sight that lingers in the memory.

Door County, Wisconsin

Nestled along Lake Michigan, Door County transforms into a fall wonderland in September. Quaint towns, orchards, and charming lighthouses create an idyllic setting for leaf peeping. The mix of maples, birches, and cherry trees makes this region a kaleidoscope of colors.

Shenandoah National Park, Virginia

The Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia come alive with brilliant hues during September. Shenandoah National Park offers an array of hiking trails that lead to stunning overlooks. The Skyline Drive is a must-visit, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes adorned in their fall finery.

Upper Peninsula, Michigan

Michigan's Upper Peninsula is a hidden gem for fall foliage enthusiasts. The dense forests, combined with the reflective waters of the Great Lakes, create a picturesque setting. The Porcupine Mountains, often referred to as the "Porkies," offer extensive trails that lead to captivating vistas.

Columbia River Gorge, Oregon and Washington

While the Northeast is often the focal point for fall foliage, the Pacific Northwest has its own unique display. The Columbia River Gorge, straddling the border between Oregon and Washington, bursts into shades of gold and crimson during September. The waterfalls and viewpoints along the Historic Columbia River Highway provide ample opportunities to witness this stunning transformation.

As September rolls in, the US transforms into a symphony of colors, with leaves turning from green to brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold.

A Day in Cold Spring Harbor, Long Island

An easterly drive on Long Island’s Route 25A reveals an opening in the foliage just over the Nassau-Suffolk County line on the left side and a splotch of water known as “Cold Spring Harbor.” That water, of both the fresh and salt types, defined it, sustained it, and became its raison d’etre. “Water is the defining characteristic of the place now called Cold Spring Harbor,” according to Robert G. Hughes in his Images of America: Cold Spring Harbor book (Acadia Publishing, 2014, p. 7). “To the indigenous inhabitants, it was known as Wawapex, or ‘at the good little water place.’ The European settlers of the 17th century named the area after its abundance of freshwater springs.” Like a mirror, that water reflects its changing color and character as it does—slate gray on cloudy days, cobalt blue on clear ones, and orange and reds near its shores on autumn ones. It also reflects its history. It served as a draw and became the means to sustain the lives of those who settled there. Only a few hundred yards beyond this view, the road arcs to the left and threads its way through the hamlet, which is very small. But so, too, are gens. This one sparkles through its harbor and exudes its history through its nature, museums, and restored buildings. It is a living example of how its purpose has evolved as a result of time, transportation, and technology. And a day spent here will demonstrate that. Cold Spring Harbor History: Located on Long Island’s North Shore-specifically on the western edge of what was once Huntington’s 1653 First Purchase-Cold Spring Harbor arose because of its water artery, providing the many means by which it developed over the next three centuries. Power, the initial one, turned the mills that cut the locally grown trees, supplied the wood to construct farms, and ground the grain they grew, all made possible by the dam across from the Cold Spring River that John Adams erected in 1682. Aside from these saw and grist mills, there were also those that wove and created paper. “Dams at the edge of large ponds and lakes generated power to run grist, saw, paper, and woolen mills where local grain, trees, and wool were transformed into food, logs, paper, barrels, and woven materials, such as broadcloths, blankets, and coverlets,” according to the CSHFHM News: The Newsletter of the Cold Spring Harbor Fire House Museum (Winter 2015). Water also positioned Cold Spring Harbor as a delivery port, its next significant role, when an Act of Congress appointed a surveyor of customs on March 2, 1799. He was entrusted with the “power to enroll and license vessels to be employed in the coasting trade and fisheries and to enter and clear, and grant registers and other usual papers, to vessels employed in the whale fisheries.” Devoid of any appreciable land-based infrastructure, the country relied on rivers and seas for passenger and cargo transport during this time. In the case of Cold Spring Harbor, water served as its channel for schooners to deliver rice, coffee, sugar, wood, coal, sand, and gravel to New York City and destinations beyond, specifically those along the East Coast and as far as the West Indies in the Caribbean. The integral role Cold Spring Harbor played in coastal trading is reflected by the 99 ships registered there in 1883. And its waters became the threshold to the whaling ships that sailed even further afield.

Shelburne County wildfire still out of control as schools close, thousands evacuate

An out-of-control wildfire in Nova Scotia’s Shelburne County has forced officials to close all public schools in the area.

The fire, which started Sunday near Barrington Lake, has grown to more than 19,000 hectares. It was roughly 10,300 hectares Tuesday morning.

A shift in wind direction Tuesday pushed smoke towards the town of Shelburne, about 35 kilometres northwest, and forced residents of a seniors home to move. About 65 seniors and their caregivers are now staying at Acadia University.

About 2,000 residents have been told to evacuate their homes.

Steven Ryer, from Clyde River, about 20 kilometres southwest of Shelburne, says he isn’t sure if his home is still standing. He says information is hard to come by.

“Nobody knows anything,” Ryer told CTV News in an interview Tuesday. “I’ve had elderly people from our community calling me looking to me for answers and I don’t know what to tell them. I’ve contacted our local MLA and they don’t really know what to tell us.”

Premier Tim Houston said he understands the frustration but all efforts are focused on putting fires out and saving as many homes as possible.

Fifty Department of Natural Resources and Renewables (DNRR) firefighters, including an incident management team, were on site Tuesday as well as several dozen volunteer firefighters.

Two water bombers from Newfoundland and Labrador were in the air along with two helicopters from DNRR and two that were privately contracted.

When asked if Nova Scotia needs its own fleet of bombers, Houston said, “We have the helicopters who can drop. We have access to them, so we’ll look at doing what we can to support the firefighters in this province.”

Nova Scotia has seen more than 180 wildfires in 2023.

#JamesDonaldson On #MentalHealth –  As Wait For #Mental Help Increases, #SuicideAttempts Continue To Rise

The Mills administration has poured money into #behavioralhealthservices, but one expert says there’s not enough money in the government to fix the problems. BY ROSE LUNDYMAINE MONITOR Demand for #mentalhealthservices that peaked during the #pandemic has remained stubbornly high, increasing waitlists and spilling #patients into Maine’s hospital emergency rooms. Prior to #COVID-19, Mainers might wait weeks to see a #behavioralhealthspecialist. Now waitlists are months long, said Dr. Anthony Ng, ??medical director for community services at Northern Light Acadia Hospital. IF YOU NEED HELP If you or someone you know is affected by any of the issues raised in this story, call the Maine crisis hotline at 888-568-1112 or text the #nationalcrisistextline at 741741. You can also dial #988 to be connected to the hotline. “You could put them on the waitlist but for every moment they wait, weeks and months, their illness could worsen,” Ng said. Maine was losing #psychiatrists in the years leading to the #pandemic, and the numbers have continued to drop. In 2019, three counties – Franklin, Piscataquis and Sagadahoc – did not have any #psychiatrists, according to a statewide report released last month. Staff shortages during the #pandemic forced outpatient programs to reduce services despite rising rates of #isolation, #depression and #anxiety at a time of economic uncertainty and political discontent, said Ng, who also is a Distinguished Fellow of the #AmericanPsychiatricAssociation. Maine already had high #suiciderates before the #pandemic: In 2019, the state #suicide rate per 100,000 was 19.4 compared to 13.9 nationally. #COVID-19 made the situation worse, and the need for services has not eased despite the easing of #pandemic lockdowns that caused widespread #isolation, #mentalhealthprofessionals told The Maine Monitor. Linda Durst Linda Durst, chief medical officer with Maine Behavioral Healthcare, said she has tracked more #suicide deaths during the #pandemic than in the five years prior. In particular, she’s seen an “acceleration in severe #suicideattempts in #youth.” Durst also chairs the department of psychiatry at Maine Medical Center. The numbers have been higher in the past year, perhaps because as the #pandemic has dragged on, “people have gotten less hopeful,” Durst said. And delayed care meant that people who seek care had more severe cases. But there are efforts to address this. Gov. Janet Mills allocated $230 million for #behavioralhealthservices this fiscal year, including $15.4 million released in June to help reduce waitlists for community-based services and reduce emergency department use for #behavioralhealth crises. And Maine Medical Center has expanded its psychiatry residency program into #ruralcommunities. Experts say the #pandemic is an opportunity to rethink the way they deliver #mentalhealthservices. #EMERGENCYROOMS GET BUSIER  When there aren’t enough treatment providers, people with more severe #mentalhealthchallenges may end up in emergency rooms. #Behavioralhealth visits to emergency rooms in Maine hospitals have remained 25 percent higher than before the #pandemic, according to a survey conducted this week by the Maine Hospital Association. The length of stay in the emergency room has increased 25 percent — and in some cases as much as 35-40 percent. At one point last year, psychiatric #patients took up half the emergency beds in Maine’s largest hospital system, the Bangor Daily News reported. Keeping #patients in emergency room beds for extended stays – a practice called boarding – is one of the top problems facing hospitals, said Steven Michaud, president of the Maine Hospital Association. It’s a bad situation for everyone because the #patient doesn’t receive the long-term level of care needed, it puts an extra strain on staff and takes away beds from other #patients. Hospitals have seen rising rates of violence from #patients toward staff as a result. “It doesn’t mean that all #behavioralhealth #patients are violent. Not at all. But they are disproportionately more so, and to say otherwise is just not facing reality,” Michaud said. “So when we have these #patients it is more dangerous for our staff in the #emergencyroom.” Workforce shortages are part of the problem, but the lack of an adequate number of treatment centers goes back to the national movement in the 1970s and 1980s to shrink state #mentalhealth facilities, Michaud said. “This is a long-standing problem, which tells you there hasn’t been enough services out in the community for years, if not decades,” Michaud said. “And by the way, this is a national phenomenon. Everybody like me is pulling their hair out about this across the country.” In addition to allocating funds to providers, the Mills administration in January opened a close supervision residential facility to provide an alternative to incarceration or hospitalization, opened a crisis center in Portland and expanded crisis support for #youth based on a pilot program in Aroostook County, according to a spokesperson. Increasing funding to providers and increasing the number of beds for in-#patient treatment will help, but Michaud said it’s important to also start thinking about different methods of providing care. “There’s not enough money in all the government to take care of this so we’re going to have to do both: We need more resources …  but we also need different ways of looking at it in terms of models,” Michaud said. #James Donaldson notes:Welcome to the “next chapter” of my life… being a voice and an advocate for #mentalhealthawarenessandsuicideprevention, especially pertaining to our younger generation of students and student-athletes.Getting men to speak up and reach out for help and assistance is one of my passions. Us men need to not suffer in silence or drown our sorrows in alcohol, hang out at bars and strip joints, or get involved with drug use.Having gone through a recent bout of #depression and #suicidalthoughts myself, I realize now, that I can make a huge difference in the lives of so many by sharing my story, and by sharing various resources I come across as I work in this space.  #http://bit.ly/JamesMentalHealthArticleOrder your copy of James Donaldson's latest book,#CelebratingYourGiftofLife:From The Verge of Suicide to a Life of Purpose and Joy www.celebratingyourgiftoflife.com DISAPPEARING #PSYCHIATRISTS  Between 2015 and 2020, the number of practicing licensed #psychiatrists in Maine dropped by half to 110. The drop-off is due in large part to a wave of retirements that was hastened by the #pandemic, Durst said. The average age of a #psychiatrist in Maine is 55. But Durst added that there seems to be renewed interest in psychiatry and she’s seen impressive applicants for training programs. Maine Medical Center runs the state’s only #psychiatric residency program, which offers four years of postgraduate training. There are five residents in the standard program and three in #child psychiatry. The program was expanded this year to include two residents in a rural track in Rockland. There’s a lot of evidence that people from #ruralareas, or who are trained in #ruralareas, are more likely to stay there, said John Gale, a senior research associate at the University of Southern Maine and the former president of the National Rural Health Association. Experts said it’s important to have providers in #ruralareas because they have local knowledge and understanding of what their #patients are experiencing, and are better able to connect and treat them. In addition, it’s difficult for people to drive hours from home, spending time and gas money, to receive these services. Gale said the shortage of workforce professionals and #mentalhealthservices has existed for his entire 40-year career in the field. There’s been some progress but it hasn’t solved the problem. “We’re not likely to produce enough #psychiatrists and #socialworkers who want to go to #ruralcommunities to fill the need, so I think we have to think about it differently than we used to,” he said. Dr. Anthony Ng Telehealth is one way to improve access but it’s a “double edged sword,” said Ng, with Acadia Hospital. While it may bridge the gap for people who live in areas without local #mentalhealthservices, telehealth also means that Maine-based #psychiatrists could work remotely in other places. In addition, not everyone has broadband to support telehealth communications. Experts told The Maine Monitor that one of the most important solutions is to weave #mentalhealthservices into primary care, school-based programs and community support. This is a chance to be more proactive and work on #stress reduction, rather than wait for problems to get so severe that they need to see a #psychiatrist, Ng said. “This is time for us to look at new ways to work with communities, rather than the old-fashioned way of just putting more people out there to see more #patients.” This story was originally published by The Maine Monitor. The Maine Monitor is a local journalism product published by The Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, a nonpartisan and nonprofit civic news organization. Read the full article
