Ikhabethe lesimanje elihle kakhulu le-curio elenziwe eNorth Carolina, ingxube yamabhisikidi e-buttermilk enhle kakhulu, ichweba elihle kakhulu lesitayela saseGeorgia kanye neminye imikhiqizo engamashumi amabili nanye eyenziwe eNingizimu yakha imikhiqizo ewine imiklomelo yalo nyaka ehlanganisa izigaba eziyisithupha: Ikhaya, Ukudla, Iziphuzo, Imisebenzi Yezandla, Isitayela kanye Nangaphandle. Ngaphezu kwalokho: ophumelele umklomelo wethu wokuqala we-Sustainability Award
Ngemuva kwesikrini sethusi esikhanyayo kanye negobolondo elihle le-walnut elimnyama lesifundo sikaWarren Elijah Leed kukhona izitsha zobumba, izincwadi zobuciko, izinto zokuhlobisa kanye namagobolondo ezimfudu, kanye nemikhumbi eyimodeli, ubuhlalu bamabhomu kanye nezimoto zamabhokisi omentshisi. “Umqondo walesi siqephu ukufihla into engafihliwe ngokuphelele,” kusho uLead, umklami waseDurham, eNorth Carolina. Lesi sisekelo besilokhu sikhona amakhulu eminyaka: amakhabethe ezinto ezimangalisayo abelokhu ekhona kusukela ngeNkathi Yokuvuselelwa Kwase-Italy, lapho ukuqoqa izikhumbuzo ezingavamile nezingavamile ezivela emhlabeni wonke kwakubonisa isimo senhlalo, futhi ukubuka la maqoqo nakho kwakusebenza njengokuzijabulisa kwephathi.
Kodwa kwabanye ababukeli ababone imiklamo kaLead ebushelelezi, yesimanje eqediwe e-International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) eNew York entwasahlobo edlule, kwafika engqondweni ingcezu yaseMelika yakudala. “Abanye babantu abadala engangibazi bathi ibukeka njengesiphephelo sephayi,” kukhumbula uLead. “Bekungokokuqala ngqa ukuzwa noma ubani ekhuluma ngayo.” wayengenandaba nokuqhathaniswa. Eqinisweni, uLied ukholelwa ukuthi yena – nabo bonke abanye abaculi nabadwebi – bahlala bengaphansi kwethonya lento ethile, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uyaqaphela noma cha.
“Abantu abazama ukusho ukuthi basungula into entsha—angivumelani nalokho,” kusho uLead. “Bengifuna ukwenza into eqashelwayo ngendlela entsha. [Ikhabhinethi] ayintsha impela, kodwa ngicabanga ukuthi yimininingwane eminingi emincane ithimba lethu eliyifaka emsebenzini wethu eyenza ivelele.” Ifomu elivivinywe isikhathi eside liyafana, kodwa izakhi zalo ezicwengekile—i-walnut joinery eqinile, izikrini zethusi ezilukiwe kahle (hhayi ezihlanganisiwe), izibambo zethusi ezenziwe ngesandla—zidinga ubuhlakani.
ULead, owafunda ukubhula ingilazi kanye nobumba eCentral Kentucky College ngaphambi kokuphishekela umsebenzi wokusebenza ngokhuni, ubheka yonke iphrojekthi yefenisha ngamehlo omculi. Isitudiyo sikaLead edolobheni laseDurham sisesakhiweni esinesitolo sakhe sokwenza insimbi, inhlangano yobuciko engenzi nzuzo kanye nesitudiyo sokubhula ingilazi asivula nomngane wakhe ngo-2017. ULied waqala ngokudweba izitayela ezithile zekhabhinethi. Elinye lide, elinye lide. Elinye lifushane, elinye lihlala phansi, elinye lihlala phansi. “Akukho ndlela yokwenza noma yikuphi kwalokhu,” esho.
Ngemva kokunquma ukuma nobukhulu bamanje bukaWarren, waqoqa izinto zokwakha, wathola i-walnut eqinile eGibsonville eseduze, wabe eseyigaya wayibumba yena. “Sasebenzisa i-walnut eningi efenisha,” kusho uLead, ephawula ukuqina kwayo, ukuthambekela kwayo, imibala yayo ecebile kanye nokuthungwa kwayo okuyinkimbinkimbi. “Ngachitha isikhathi esiningi ngihamba futhi ngiqoqa ama-walnut engeziwe noma nini lapho ngiwabona. Cishe zonke izinto zethu zivela endaweni ethile e-Appalachians.”
Nakuba iningi lamatafula, amashalofu, izihlalo kanye nezincwadi ezikhanyiswa yiLidl zinamakhona aqinile, ukwakha imiphetho egobile yamakhabethe kulula kakhulu. “Kodwa ukugoqa ithusi nxazonke kwengxenye egobile kuwumdlalo omusha ngokuphelele,” esho. “Sidlule ekuzameni nasekuphutheni ukuze silungise, kodwa ngokweqiniso, kwakumnandi kakhulu. Isikhathi esiningi senza lokho esasikwenza ngaphambili. Kwakuyinto okwakumelwe siyiqonde.” futhi ivikelwe, isikrini sasicwayiza njenganoma yiliphi ibhokisi lengcebo; e-ICFF, izivakashi azikwazanga ukuzibamba kodwa zelula isandla zithinte insimbi njengoba zidlula.
Uma imishini yakho inezimbobo ezibonakala sengathi ziyiminwe, sicela usithinte. Ukuze uyikhiphe, uLidl wabhubhisa isikhunta sokhuni wabe esedala isikhunta se-silicone esizungezile. Wabe esesebenzisana nomenzi wezinto zokuhloba wendawo ukuze asifake ngethusi. “Iningi lezinye izinto esizidonsayo ziyindilinga,” echaza. “Zivulwa nge-lathe futhi zibukeka zibushelelezi. Lokhu kubalulekile kimi ngoba zibukeka zenziwe ngezandla ngokucacile.”
Ezandleni ezingafanele, ukhuni olucwebezelayo, isikrini esicwebezelayo kanye nezinto ezenziwe ngokwezifiso ezicwebezelayo kungase kubonakale kunamathele, kodwa amandla kaLidl asekuhlakanipheni kwawo. “Ngifuna ukuqinisekisa ukuthi umsebenzi wami uhlukile, kodwa hhayi ngendlela ephawulekayo,” kusho yena. Izingxenye ngazinye zale khabhinethi zihlanganiswe ngokucophelela okukhulu nokunaka imininingwane, njengeqoqo eliyigugu elihloselwe lona.
Ngesikhathi iningi lontanga yakhe lizilolonga ukubamba, uJed Curtis wathola i-anvil yakhe yokuqala, ephefumulelwe umkhandi wensimbi ayibona ngesikhathi evakashele iDemo Living History Museum. “Angikaze ngikucabange njengomsebenzi,” kusho uCurtis. Kodwa ngemva kokuhlangana ngengozi nomkhandi wensimbi osethathe umhlalaphansi waseNew York owamthengisela izinto esitolo sakhe, uCurtis wahlala eRoanoke ngo-2016 wavula iHeart & Spade Forge. Lapho, wakha izitsha zokupheka zensimbi yekhabhoni ngesandla, njengalaba babhaki abahle, ngensimbi eluhlaza ethunyelwe evela eNyakatho naseNingizimu Carolina kanye nefektri eduze kwesitudiyo sakhe. Waklama imishini yesinkwa (ethengiswa ngawodwana futhi ngamaqoqo amathathu) ukuze isabalalise ukushisa ngokulinganayo kuhhavini noma esitovini futhi ishintshele kahle etafuleni. Izinga lakhe le-chemistry lanquma imisebenzi yalezi zingxenye (insimbi yekhabhoni ingalawula izinga lokushisa kangcono kunensimbi ephonswe), futhi wenza ukuqagela ngesimo sazo ngokubuka abakhandi besiliva eColonial Williamsburg kanye nabakhi bezinsimbi ezishisayo ngawo-1940. Kodwa ngaphezu kwakho konke, umqondo wefa oqhuba umsebenzi wakhe. “Ipani lokuthosa lomndeni liyinqubo eqhubekayo,” esho. "Angizenzeli wena, ngizenzela abazukulu bakho."
Nakuba uBen Caldwell akhulela ezungeze isiliva—uyise wayengumuntu othanda ukuqongelela izinto, futhi iMigqibelo eminingi yobuntwana bakhe yayichithwa egibele amahhashi efuna ingcebo—isinqumo sakhe sokuba umkhandi wesiliva sammangaza. “Ngachitha ingxenye yokuqala yomsebenzi wami ngenza izinsimbi zomculo,” esho. Kodwa umsebenzi kaCaldwell washintsha lapho uTerry Talley waseMurfreesboro, eTenn., esebenza ngensimbi, ebuza ukuthi angathanda yini ukufunda umsebenzi wobungcweti. Namuhla, ngaphansi kwegama elithi Ben & Lael, wenza izitsha zokudla zesiliva nezethusi ezinhle nezinye izinto zasekhaya, okuhlanganisa nalezi zitsha ezinhle kakhulu, azinika uKeith Leonard, umnikazi wenkampani yendawo yokubeka amapuleti. Zabe sezimbozwa ngezingqimba ezine zesiliva likaKeith Leonard. . (UCaldwell wenza izingcezu zesiliva zethusi nezesiliva eziqinile ngokuphelele endlini.) “Uma wenza isitsha ngesandla, siyindilinga ngokwemvelo, kodwa ukuze sisetshenziswe ekhaya, phansi kudingeka kube yisicaba,” kuchaza uCaldwell. “Ngiyazonda ukubhubhisa ifomu ukuze lisebenze.” Isixazululo sakhe: ukuma okulinganiselayo okwenziwe ngezimpondo ze-mule, i-whitetail, i-elk kanye ne-elk. “Izimpondo zinhle kakhulu futhi zinobunjalo bezinto eziphilayo,” esho. “Kuyisimo esiqoshiwe. Kokubili kuyasebenza futhi kuhle.”
Nakuba u-Andrew Reed nethimba lakhe kwaReed Classics bakha imibhede eyinkimbinkimbi yophahla esitolo sabo eDothan, e-Alabama, imishini abayisebenzisayo ilula. “Isitolo sami siyimyuziyamu esebenzayo, egcwele imishini yasendulo kusukela ngawo-1940 kuya ku-1950,” kusho uReed ngemishini yakhe yensimbi, njenge-planer eya-odwa ekuqaleni kwa-International Harvester kanye ne-planer evela ku-band saw yendiza yeMpi Yezwe II. “Zisebenza kangcono kunanoma yini entsha. Siqala ngama-mahogany blanks, ikakhulukazi avela eMelika Ephakathi naseNingizimu Melika, bese siqala ukuwagaya.” Ngakho-ke ngisho nemiklamo yakhe elula idinga izinyathelo ezingamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesithupha. Kusukela ngo-1938, isizukulwane sesithathu senkampani (esizoba sesine maduze)—izingane zikaReed ezisencane zaqala ukufunda ibhizinisi—zithulule leyo mizamo kumakholomu epensela (asesithombeni), i-Colonial, i-spool, kanye nombhede wasekhaya wesitayela sikaVictoria. Kuyo yonke izwe: indlu yasepulazini e-Alabama, indlu enkulu eHollywood, indlu enkulu eCharleston kanye nefulethi lesimanje eNew York. “Nginomthengi oneminyaka engamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesithupha waseBirmingham olala embhedeni ofanayo nowanikezwa umkhulu njengesipho somshado,” kusho uReed. “Zakhelwe ukuhlala phakade.”
UCharlotte Moss, umklami wangaphakathi odumile kanye nombhali wezincwadi zokuklama eziyishumi nambili, uhlala efuna ubuhle obusha, obungapheli. Ulethe iminyaka engamashumi amathathu yesipiliyoni kanye nothando lokuthungwa nombala esigabeni sasekhaya sokwahlulela futhi wahlabeka umxhwele ngamakhabethe omndeni ka-Elijah Lead. “Yenziwe kahle, ilula futhi inomoya, futhi i-mesh yethusi iyinika ukukhanya,” uyachaza. “Uma uyisebenzisa njenge-buffet, iziphetho ezigobile zilingana kahle namapuleti…futhi iphephile ezinganeni!”
“Amakhukhi ayikudla okulula kakhulu futhi ungenza izinto eziningi ngawo,” kusho uCarolyn Roy. Yena nomlingani wakhe uJason bayakufakazela lokhu, futhi endaweni yokudlela yasekuseni neyasemini iBiscuit Head, abadli bangaya edolobheni bayodla ukudla okubhakiwe ngesoso elilodwa kweziyisithupha, noma isoso esishisayo nejamu, noma ingulube edonswe nge-ham, futhi uma kwenzeka amabhisikidi e-Dirty Animal, ushizi we-pimento owenziwe ekhaya, inkukhu ethosiwe, ubhekeni namaqanda athosiwe agcwele isoso esenziwe ekhaya. “Kuyahlekisa,” kuvuma uCaroline.
Kodwa konke kubuyela ezisekelweni: Selokhu uRoys evule isitolo sakhe sokuqala e-Asheville ngo-2013, amakhukhi abo amakhulu, athambile futhi amnandi ekhanda lekati adonse ukunaka kwabathengi basekuseni. Ngokushesha ngemva kokuvula, amakhasimende aqala ukubuza ngama-combo abo. URoyce wavuma, wawathengisa emabhodleleni engilazi anemiyalelo eribhoni.
Manje le ngxube isishintshile. Njengoba ukuthandwa kweBiscuit Head kuqhubeka nokukhula, umndeni wakwaRoy uvule ezinye izindawo ezimbili e-Asheville kanye nenye eGreenville, e-SC, kanye nokuvula indawo yokupheka ekhanzini manje eyenza ama-jam kanye nesikhwama esisha sengxube yamakhukhi engaphumeleli. Isihluthulelo lapha yilesi: ibhotela selivele lisikiwe; umpheki wasekhaya udinga nje ukwengeza ubisi oluncane ukuze kube lula ukuthulula ufulawa esitsheni nasekhawunteni (nakwezinye izindawo ekhishini). Iseluleko sikaCaroline ukuthi ubeke nje inhlama epanini (ungayigoqeli) futhi ungangabazi ukuyikhafula. “Amakhukhi ethu alula kakhulu futhi anomoya ngaphakathi futhi acwebezelayo futhi anebhotela ngaphandle,” kusho yena. “Awukwazi ukuwaqoqa uwadle ngezandla zakho. Lawa amakhukhi enziwe ngommese nefoloko.”

UGinger Frank wayazi ukuthi ufuna ukuqhuba ibhizinisi lakhe ngaphambi kokuba acabange ngokungathi sína ngokuthi ibhizinisi lakhe kufanele libe yini. Kodwa wayethanda ama-popcorn futhi wathola ukuthi babengekho abathengisi e-Asheville abangochwepheshe ekudleni okulula. Ngakho-ke, naphezu kokungavunyelwa kwabangane nomndeni, wavula isitolo esibizwa ngokuthi i-Poppy Hand-Crafted Popcorn, ethengisa ama-popcorn akhethekile anambitheka ngendlela yokudala. “Yilokho kuphela engangikucabanga, ngakho kwakufanele kusebenze ngempela,” kusho uFrank. Kwaba njalo. Usebenzisa izithako zemvelo nama-flavour (“ungakufunda konke kulebula”), futhi u-Asheville uyaqaphela. Manje usenabasebenzi abangu-56 futhi uthe angaqasha abanye abangu-10. Eziningi zezincwadi zakhe ezidumile kakhulu zivele ekubambisaneni namabhizinisi endawo nawesifunda. Phakathi kwazo: i-Spicewalla, umugqa wezinongo ezincane zekhwalithi ephezulu ezivela kumpheki wase-Asheville uMeherwan Irish, owaveza umugqa omusha we-Poppy x Spicewalla. Lolu hlu olunesibindi luza ngezinongo ezine, okuhlanganisa i-Caramel Masala Chai emnandi kanye ne-Spicy Smoked Piri Piri.
Izitsha zika-anyanisi ezibhemayo bezilokhu zisemenyu eButcher & Bee, indawo yokudlela yaseMpumalanga Ephakathi eCharleston, iminyaka engaphezu kweyishumi. Ijamu ekuqaleni yadalwa njengesinongo samasangweji enyama yenkomo eyosiwe, ngenxa yokuthi iyakwazi ukuzivumelanisa nezimo—selokhu yavela emabhodini oshizi naphezu kwamahlumela aseBrussels. Amakhasimende acela cishe konke okunye bese ecela izitsha ezincane zokudla. Ngakho umnikazi uMikhail Shemtov wanquma ukuqala ukuthengisa lo mkhiqizo omuhle kakhulu, owenziwe ngo-anyanisi othathwe endlini yokubhema bese ubiliswa ngoshukela namanzi ezitsheni kulabo abathanda ukuwujabulela ekhaya. “Ungawufaka kuma-burger, ukudla okumnandi, noma uwenze ingxenye yesidlo sasekuseni noma sakusihlwa,” kusikisela uShemtov. Kwabadla imifino, uyindawo ekahle yokufaka ibhekoni, enezela ukunambitheka okunomusi, okumnandi, kanye ne-umami.

Wanquma ukuqala ibhizinisi lakhe futhi waqala ukuthola imibono. Enye yezinzuzo zokukhathala ngokuphelele, uthi, ukuthi "akanakho ukumelana nokucabanga kokudala. I-ayisikhilimu ebukeka njengemilenze yenkukhu ethosiwe - yafika engqondweni yakhe ngenkathi elele, futhi lo mbono wafika kuye ezinkumbulo zohambo oluya eFrance, lapho azame khona ama-dessert e-ayisikhilimu anobuciko obumangalisayo. Ngemva kokuzama, wadala i-ayisikhilimu enongiwe nge-waffle ehlanganiswe "ngamathambo" e-chocolate chip cookie, efakwe ushokoledi omhlophe oqoshiwe kanye ne-cornflake frosting ukuze aqedele umbono omnandi ojabulisa izingane kanye nabantu abadala ngokufanayo. Izinduku azikhiqizela inkampani yakhe, i-Life Raft Treats, zithengiswa ngazinye ezitolo ezikhethiwe eNingizimu, kufaka phakathi i-Whole Foods, kanye namapayipi avela eGoldbelly ezweni lonke.

I-Chateau Elan Winery and Resort yavulwa eBraselton, eGeorgia ngo-1982 endaweni engamahektare angu-600 ngenhloso yokuba enye yezindawo zokukhiqiza iwayini ezinkulu oGwini Olusempumalanga. Isimo sezulu kanye nendawo kwakunezinye izinhlelo. “Inkinga akuyona ukwenza iwayini, kodwa ukutshala amagilebhisi,” kusho uSimone Bergese, umqondisi jikelele kanye nomkhiqizi wewayini omkhulu eChateau Ylang. Ngemva kweminyaka yokuvuna okudumazayo, kwasala amahektare angamashumi amabili kuphela ezivini. Kwabe sekuthi, ngo-2012, kwafika uBurgis, owakhulela esifundeni sasePiedmont e-Italy futhi waqala ukusebenza ezindaweni zokukhiqiza iwayini eneminyaka engu-18 futhi kamuva wasebenza e-Australia, eSicily naseVirginia. “Ngangena emnyango ngabheka indawo,” esho, “ngabona ukuthi kukhona amathuba amahle lapha.”
Phakathi kwamanye amawayini, iBelsize yaqala ukukhiqiza i-white port, yathatha indawo yamagilebhisi e-Old World nge-muscadine, uhlobo lwendabuko olufanelekela iNingizimu. Echwebeni lakhe, wakhetha ingxube yamagilebhisi e-muscadine angu-30% kanye namagilebhisi e-chardonnay angu-70%, athunyelwa esuka eCalifornia ngamaloli aqandisiwe. Usebenzisa indlela yendabuko yokumisa ukubilisa kusenesikhathi ngokufaka ukuhlushwa okuphezulu komoya wamagilebhisi ngaphambi kokuba wonke ushukela uphenduke utshwala. Ichwebeni lakhe lalihle, kodwa ngesikhathi evakashele ifektri yewayini yasePortugal ngo-2019, waqaphela ukuthi ukuguga iwayini isikhathi eside emigqonyeni kuzothuthukisa imiphumela yakhe. “Ngemva kokunambitha i-white port, nganquma ukulinda isikhashana ngaphambi kokuyifaka ebhodleleni,” esho. Ukulibaziseka kwaba nemiphumela emihle, kwakha ubumnandi bemvelo obuthakazelisayo obuhambisana namanothi omhlaba e-praline yewayini eliqinisiwe. Ngenkathi inani lilinganiselwe futhi i-Elayne okwamanje ithengisa iPort kuphela endaweni kanye naku-inthanethi, ifektri yewayini ikhulise ukukhiqizwa, okusho ukuthi amawayini amaningi azofika emashalofini eminyakeni ezayo.
Ngo-1999, uDeborah Stone nomyeni wakhe bathenga amahektha angu-80 ehlathi eduze kwaseBirmingham, futhi ngosizo lukayise, kancane kancane baguqula ihlathi laba ipulazi. Batshala ama-rose nezinye izitshalo ukwenza imikhiqizo yokunakekelwa kwesikhumba: UStone wasebenza embonini ye-spa kanye nenhlalakahle ekuqaleni komsebenzi wakhe futhi ngesinye isikhathi wayene-juice bar. “Yilapho ngaziswa khona ngehlathi kanye neviniga kanye nezinzuzo zalo,” kusho yena. Manje usebenzisa imikhiqizo namakhambi akhuliswe epulazini ukudala izinongo ezisekelwe kuviniga njenge-blueberry kanye ne-turmeric yeStone Hollow Farm yakhe kanye nesitolo sayo esitolo edolobheni laseBirmingham. Eminyakeni emithathu edlule, yethule izinhlobo ze-strawberry kanye ne-rose zeviniga, eyaba yiviniga yokuphuza ethengiswa kakhulu enkampanini. Ipulazi likhula izitshalo ze-strawberry ezingaba yizinkulungwane ezintathu, kanti amajikijolo amasha acwiliswa kuviniga we-apple cider we-organic. UStone ube esenezela ama-rose petals, ama-peppercorns, i-coriander kanye ne-sinamoni engxubeni, okwenza kube yinto ehlukile nemnandi. Abapheki bangayisebenzisa ekugqokeni isaladi, futhi abathengisi be-bartender kufanele bayizame kuma-cocktail. Kodwa ungayijabulela futhi ngokuphuza amanzi acwebezelayo phezu kweqhwa.

Wasebenzela inhlangano engenzi nzuzo eWashington, DC, esebenzela ukuthuthukisa ukuzinza kwezinhlelo zezolimo, futhi wayefuna indlela yokuletha injabulo nenjabulo ezweni elibuswa yizimpahla. “I-Bloody Marys ibilokhu iyingxenye yemikhosi yomndeni isikhathi eside engikhumbulayo,” kusho uGray. “Ngangazi ukuthi i-Bloody Mary iyini ngaphambi kokuba ngazi ukuthi i-cocktail iyini.” Uyazi nabalimi abaningi abancane abatshala utamatisi oyigugu, “othengiswa kahle uma uphelele, kodwa ungathengisi nhlobo uma ungaphelele.” ” Ngo-2015, yena nodadewabo uJennifer Beckman basungula i-Back Pocket Provisions eRichmond futhi baqala ukukhama utamatisi abangathandwa kunethiwekhi yamapulazi omndeni kulo lonke elaseVirginia. Ukuze bakhe inhlanganisela yabo evelele ye-Bloody Brilliant, bahlanganisa amajusi amasha ne-horseradish, isosi yaseWorcestershire kanye nopelepele we-cayenne. “Sasifuna ukwenza okuthile okunambitheka njengejusi likatamatisi, hhayi into ethambile njenge-V8,” esho. Ukunambitheka okukhanyayo, okukhanyayo okuphumelayo kunambitheka njengensimu kunethini.
Ukwanda kwezindawo zokukhiqiza utshwala ezenziwe ngezandla eNingizimu (nakulo lonke izwe) kwavula indlela yokukhula okusha: ukukhula kokuhlolwa ekukhiqizweni kwe-whisky nezinye iziphuzo ezidakayo. Izindawo zokukhiqiza utshwala ezincane zivame ukuba nezimo eziguquguqukayo futhi zingazama izindlela ezintsha zokubona ukuthi yini esebenzayo. Itholakala kumahektare ayi-112 eFort Worth, e-TX Whisky yakha ngokushesha idumela le-bourbon ye-premium selokhu yasungulwa lo mkhiqizo ngo-2010. Ihlala iyiqiniso kulowo moya wokusungula izinto ezintsha: NgoNovemba odlule, indawo yokukhiqiza utshwala yakhipha eyesithathu ochungechungeni lwayo lwe-Barrel Finish, iguga i-bourbon emiphongolweni ye-Cognac esetshenzisiwe isikhathi esingaphezu konyaka. Lezi zindawo zokukhiqiza utshwala zinikeza amaphunga acebile ezithelo ahambisana kahle nokunambitheka kwe-vanilla ne-caramel okutholakala emiphongolweni ye-oki yendabuko. "Lena i-bourbon yasehlobo ephelele," kusho uchwepheshe we-whisky u-Ale Ochoa, "ngoba inokunambitheka okulula, okusha, nezithelo."
UWayne Curtis ungumlobi wezincwadi zeziphuzo ze-G&G kanye nombhali wencwadi ethi A Bottle of Rum: A New World History in Ten Cocktails. Imicabango yakhe ecatshangelwe kahle ngeziphuzo ezidakayo kanye nama-cocktails nayo ivele ku-The Atlantic Monthly kanye ne-The New York Times. isiphuzo esihle. .

"Kodwa i-Elan Castle ikhombisa ukuthi ingagxuma uma isetshenziswa ngokuhlakanipha. Ukudlala eqenjini le-varsity futhi kunezinzuzo zokuncintisana nazo."
U-Austin Clark waluke i-fiber ngayinye ibe yintambo, wabopha i-warp ngayinye ku-loom yakhe, wacwilisa i-swatch ngayinye ngodayi we-indigo futhi wachitha ihora ngalinye eshayela imizila eduze kwekhaya lakhe laseBaton Rouge eqoqa amaphethini e-quilt. U-Austin Clark ugcine izinto ziphila amakhulu eminyaka. -Ubuciko basendulo bokuluka kwe-Acadian. UClark nomeluleki wakhe, umluki oneminyaka engu-81 ubudala ogama lakhe lingu-Elaine Bourke, bahlola amaqoqo emyuziyamu futhi baxoxa nabantu abaningi ukuze baqoqe ulwazi mayelana nama-Acadian (manje amaCajuns) kanye nasekuqaleni kwawo-1900. Ama-Acadian ayesebenzisa ukotini onsundu ngokomlando ukwenza izingubo nezingubo zokulala, futhi kuwuphawu oluphilayo lwalowo mkhuba—uBourke usatshala imigqa yezinhlobo ezinombala we-caramel, futhi uClark uyayiphinda ayivuselele kanye nesivuno sakhe uma ekwazi ukwenza izindwangu zakhe zase-Acadian.
Izinto azidalile zifaka phakathi amaphethini ajwayelekile anemigqa ayevame ukuhlobisa amathawula, amablanketi namashidi eCajun trousseaus, kanye nama-quilts e-X- kanye ne-O-pattern asendulo awenziwa ngabaluki ngezinye izikhathi ngokotini omhlophe obizayo njengesipho esikhethekile somshado. Iphethini yadalwa nguTeresa Drone, opheke i-Acadian spinner kanye nomluki, owanikeza i-Cross and Diamond quilt yakhe kuFirst Lady Lou Hoover noMamie Eisenhower. “Ngizama ukuyidala kabusha eduze kakhulu neyokuqala ngangokunokwenzeka,” kusho uClark. Ikhiqiza izindwangu ezincane njalo ngenyanga, kuyilapho amakhasimende kufanele a-ode izinto ezinkulu, njengemablanketi, ezingathatha izinyanga ukukhiqiza. “Kubalulekile ukungangezi umbono wami ngoba angisiye umCajun. Ngifuna ukuhlonipha isiko, ngihloniphe abaluki futhi ngivumele umsebenzi uzikhulumele.”
Kodwa uBourque, umthwali wamasiko abantu baseLouisiana, uzoba yizwi lethalente likaClark: “Ngizizwa ngijabule futhi nganelisekile ngokwazi ukuthi u-Austin uzoqhubeka naleli siko njengoba nje okhokho bami benza,” kusho yena. “Ifa le-Acadia linakekelwa kahle.”
Imidwebo kaJoel Seeley yomsindo iyinto yendabuko kakhulu kodwa ingaphambili kakhulu kunesikhathi sayo. Ubelokhu edala ama-turntable amahle kakhulu kusukela ngo-2008, kudala ngaphambi kosuku lokuqala lwe-vinyl kodwa ngaphambi kokuvuselelwa kwayo kwakamuva (ukuthengiswa kwe-vinyl kusanda kubhekana nokukhula okukhulu kakhulu kusukela ngawo-1980). “Ngicabanga ukuthi ngidlale indima encane kulokhu kuvuselelwa,” kusho uCilley. EseNew Orleans, amakhasimende akhe e-Audiowood afaka abaklami bangaphakathi abadumile, abaculi abadumile baseNingizimu kanye nabadlali—enye yama-turntable akhe yaze yasetshenziswa efilimini ethi “Star Trek Into Darkness.” Nge-turntable yakhe ye-Barky, uSeeley wasebenzisa ulwazi lwakhe kwezobuciko, ukwakheka kwezakhiwo, ukuklama kanye nokusebenza ngokhuni ukudala umshini womculo omuhle onepuleti lomlotha elivela kumuntu olungisa izingodo womndeni awulungiselela indlela yokulungisa imifantu. UCilley wahlanza ukhuni lwaze lwaba bushelelezi ngokuphelele, wabe eseluphatha kancane nge-ebony wabe eselugcoba ngezingubo eziningana ze-topcoat – akukho okuthunyelwe okufanele kuphuthelwe lapha. Ube esefaka izingxenye zakamuva zomsindo kubadlali bese ezithumela kubantu abalalelayo emhlabeni jikelele. UBarky ubonakala njengesimangaliso sesimanje, kodwa engeza u-Allen Toussaint kule nhlanganisela futhi ungase ukhohlwe ngokubhalisele kwakho i-Spotify.
Uma uhlanganisa amakhono omqophi wezithombe kanye nomdwebi wobuciko obuhle, uthola iqoqo le-Technicolor ceramics elivela ku-People Via Plants. UMatt Spahr noValerie Molnar, abaqophi bezithombe nabadwebi (ngokulandelana) abafundisa e-VCU, bathole ukuthi basebenzisana kahle e-VCU. Ngakho basebenzisana ukudala amabhodwe anemibala, ama-vase nama-mugs athengiswa ngokushesha ku-inthanethi nasezitolo. Inqubo yabo ihilela ukusebenzisa umqophi wekhompyutha ukudala isikhunta, ukubumba ngobumba kanye nokumangala. “Isimo sendebe yokuqala sinama-texture anqunywa yi-router bit,” kusho uSpar. “Uma wenza isikhunta, uvame ukwenza i-rough pass bese uyilungisa enkambisweni yokugcina, kodwa sanquma ukushiya i-detect.” Bangeze isibambo sesikwele esinesitayela kodwa esisebenzayo abasidweba ngobubanzi obumangalisayo be-glaze. . “Ezinkomishini zethu ze-Gozer ne-Gozarian, eziqanjwe ngabalingiswa be-Ghostbusters, siyanyamalala njengokushona kwelanga nokuphuma kwelanga,” kusho uMolnar. Enye iphethini ye-glaze ibhekisela kuma-poplar e-tulip, kodwa ingadi ye-camellia kaMolnar nayo yaphefumulela lokho, njengoba kwenza ukuhambahamba emakethe yezimbali yendawo yaseRichmond, i-River City Flower Exchange.
“Sixoxa izindaba ngephunga,” kusho uTiffany Griffin, owasungula ikhandlela elimnyama iBright, eDurham ngo-2019 nomyeni wakhe uDariel Heron. UGriffin, owayeyisisebenzi sikahulumeni eWashington, DC, washukunyiswa ukuba ashintshe ukuvalwa kwebhizinisi kabili okulandelanayo. Lapho bebuyela eNorth Carolina ukuyokwakha uhlelo lwebhizinisi lokuletha inkululeko yezezimali emndenini wabo, banquma ukugubha ikhaya labo abalamukelayo ngeqoqo eliyingqayizivele lamakhandlela. “Amakhandlela aseDurham anonga njengogwayi, ukotini kanye ne-whisky,” kusho yena. “Kwakungelokuqala kimi futhi kusengomunye wezintandokazi zami.” Eminyakeni emithathu nje kuphela, iBright Black yakhipha ikhandlela ngokubambisana ne-NBA, kanye nomugqa wamakhandlela aseDiaspora, okuhlanganisa namakhandlela aseKingston anongwe nge-rum kanye ne-grapefruit. adalwe ukugubha izimpande zikaHeron zaseJamaica. Bakha futhi ibhizinisi labo ngezizathu ezibalulekile: ingxenye yokuthengiswa kwamakhandlela abo ehlobo iya ekusekeleni amaqembu omgwaqo aholwa ngabantu abamnyama eNingizimu. Kuleli hlobo, iBright Black yandisa isitudiyo sayo ngendawo entsha yobuciko yomphakathi ezosingatha ama-workshop okwenza amakhandlela kanye nokuphunga.
Kusukela ngo-2009, i-East Fork, uhlobo oludumile lwe-ceramics lwaseNorth Carolina, ibilokhu iqhutshwa yisidingo semikhiqizo ye-ceramic, okuhlanganisa nama-coffee mugs ayo adumile, okwashukumisela umsunguli u-Alex Matisse, abasunguli bakhe, umkakhe uConnie kanye nomngane wakhe uJohn Vigeland ukuba bavakashele izitolo ezivulwe e-Asheville nase-Atlanta. Ngo-2018 bathola i-Southern Made Award. “Siyathanda ukubona abantu bengathathi izindlela ezinqamulelayo,” kusho u-Alex ngesipiliyoni sakhe noConnie sokwahlulela isigaba semisebenzi yobuciko. “Siyakwazisa kakhulu isikhathi, ikhono kanye nobuciko obusetshenziswa ngabaluki bezemfundo ekwenzeni izingubo zabo zokulala.”
“Ngangifuna ukufunda ezintweni ezibuhlungu engizibonile okokuqala,” kusho umklami uMiranda Bennett lapho eqala uhlobo lwakhe lwezingubo ezizinzile. Wazalelwa e-Austin, eTexas, uBennett waphothula eParsons School of Design futhi wasebenza embonini yemfashini yaseNew York City iminyaka eyi-12, kodwa manje udala inkampani yezingubo eluhlaza, enokuziphatha okuhle enciphisa imfucuza kanye nomthelela wemvelo. Akazange akuqaphele lokho. Kwaze kwaba yilapho ebuyela edolobheni lakubo ngo-2013 lapho athola khona udayi osuselwa ezitshalweni. “Lapho ngiqala ukufunda ngodayi osuselwa ezitshalweni, ngaqala ukuthunga nokudaya nge-DIY futhi,” kusho yena. “Ngokungazelelwe kwabonakala sengathi kunesizathu esihluke ngokuphelele sokuqala iqoqo.” izinto ezikhethiwe ezisetshenziswa esigabeni sezinto ezisetshenziswa ekucubungulweni, njengemigodi ye-avocado namagobolondo e-pecan.
Esebenzisa lawa madayi njengesisekelo sokuhlobisa, uBennett ungena ezweni lemfashini ehamba kancane. Uzama ukuthunga nokwakha konke ngaphakathi kwemingcele yedolobha lase-Austin futhi ugwema izitayela zesizini ukuze akhethe izingcezu ezincane ezingaphelelwa isikhathi, ezenziwe kahle ezakhiwe ukuze zihlale isikhathi eside. “Konke kumayelana nokuthunga,” kusho yena. “Sakha izingcezu ezibukeka zilula, kodwa sinezitayela ezahlukene ezingagqokwa ngezindlela ezinhlanu ezahlukene.” Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi uyakuthanda noma uhlobo lomzimba wakho, kungenzeka ukuthi isitayela sikaMiranda Bennett sizokufanela. “Amaqoqo ethu aklanyelwe ukwenza wonke umuntu ogqokile azizwe engcono kakhulu,” kusho uBennett. “Ngakho-ke singabakhipha kanjani abantu ngenxa yobukhulu noma ubudala babo?”
Abasunguli be-Glad & Young u-Erica Tanksley no-Anna Zitz bakhulela emindenini enobuciko. “Siyakuthanda ukuzakhela izinto,” kusho uZietz. Njengoba ubudlelwano babo bobuciko bukhula, baqala ukuzama izinto ezahlukene, kodwa ngokushesha baqaphela ukuthi bayakuthanda ukusebenza ngesikhumba. Nakuba imikhiqizo eminingi yesikhumba ivame ukuba yendabuko futhi yabesilisa, uhlu lwezikhwama nezesekeli ezimibalabala ze-Glad & Young luzwakala ludlala futhi lusha, ikakhulukazi ngamaphakethe alo athengiswa kakhulu. “Okuthakazelisayo ukuthi abangani baqala ukuthenga lesi sikhwama isikhathi eside ngaphambi kokuba siphinde sithandwe,” kusho uSeitz. Kodwa lapho lo mkhuba ubuya, ukuthengiswa kwamaphakethe abo esikhumba enziwe nge-fanny kwanda kakhulu. Senziwe nge-hardware yesikhumba neyethusi eyenziwe eMelika, lesi sikhwama esiguquguqukayo silungele ukuhamba noma ukuphuma ebusuku. Singagqokwa phezu kwehlombe esinqeni, okhalweni lwemvelo noma ngaphezulu kwehlombe. Sitholakala ngosayizi ababili kanye nemibala eminingana ekhanyayo nengathathi hlangothi, kodwa inguqulo eyenziwe nge-marble ngesandla imangalisa nje. “I-marbling inqubo yomlingo,” kusho uSeitz. “Sithanda ukuhluka akulethayo kumkhiqizo ngamunye.”
Iziqu ze-bachelor's, master's, kanye ne-seminari zika-Eldrick Jacobs azizange zimfanelekele umsebenzi ayewuthanda. Ngokuzicabangela, uJacobs wathola umsebenzi eCleveland njengomthengisi ohambahambayo. “Ngihlale eNingizimu impilo yami yonke,” esho, “ngakho isimo sezulu esibandayo siyayonakalisa indaba.” Ukuze azivikele eqhweni, wathenga isigqoko sakhe sokuqala. Ejabule, waqala ukufunda lobu buciko ngaphambi kokuba ikusasa limngenise kumuntu othanda izigqoko zase-Ohio owamfundisa izisekelo kodwa wamkhuthaza ukuba athuthukise isitayela sakhe. Ngakho uJacobs wabuyela eBainbridge, eGeorgia, lapho akhulela khona ezingela ijuba, izigwaca kanye ne-pheasant. Lapho wathola ugqozi kanye namakhasimende athembekile phakathi kwabazingeli ababethutheleka endaweni. “Imvelo yakha ubuhle bami, futhi uzongibona ngibeka imibala eminingi yemvelo,” usho ngemiklamo yakhe eyinkimbinkimbi ye-Flint & Port. Udala umugqa wakhe wezigqoko ezilungele ukugqokwa, azibumba ngesandla esebenzisa amathuluzi akudala afaka phakathi uboya bonogwaja, uboya be-nutria noma i-beaver felt, ngezitayela ezifaka phakathi i-silhouettes yokuzingela amajuba yakudala, ama-fedora alungele i-brunch, kanye nesitayela se-Mississippi Delta. isigqoko se-fedora. umgembuli. Akuyena onesigqoko? Hlala uvulekile. "Ukuzethemba," kusho uJacobs, "kuyisici esiphambili."
Umdabu waseNorth Carolina, uMimi Phillips, owayengumklami wezingubo, waba ngumxhumanisi wokudala kaRalph Lauren, usola uDolly Parton “ngothuli lwezinganekwane” olwamenza wathutha eNew York waya eNashville. Uthando lukaPhillips lokuqala lobucwebe lwaqala ngamaqoqo kamama wakhe nogogo wakhe, lwaqala eMusic City, futhi lwakhula lwaba uhlobo oluphelele ngemuva kokuba uPhillips ethole iSikole Somhlobiso Wezinto Ezintsha. “Kwakuyisikole sezinga lomhlaba ngaphandle kweNashville,” esho, “esinothisha abahle abavela ezindaweni ezifana neTiffany. Ngathatha ikharikhulamu ephelele – ukwenza ubucwebe, ukubeka amagugu, zonke izifundo zobugcisa.” Ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, wasungula iMinnie Lane., uhlobo olwalugxile ekuqaleni kuma-oda obucwebe obuhle kodwa ngokushesha lwaphendukela emaqoqweni alo amasongo emfashini, imigexo, amacici namasongo. Umklamo ngamunye uqala ngomdwebo we-2D, uPhillips abe esewuletha empilweni esebenzisa i-AutoCAD noma i-wax ngaphambi kokuwuthumela ukuze usetshenziswe ekubunjweni. “Ubuciko be-wax buyindlela yokuzindla kimi,” usho kanje. Ephefumulelwe yiqoqo likamngane wakhe uScarlett Bailey le-Naked Everyday, wadala izinhlobo eziningi zesongo esidumile seScarlett (esiboniswe ngezansi, kwesokudla, kanye nezinye izinhlobo eziningi zikaMinnie Lane), wabe eseveza umklamo omuhle nomangalisayo owaba ngothengiswa kakhulu.
Kusukela ngo-2014, inkampani kaMignonne Gavigan eqanjwe ngegama ibilokhu ikhiqiza imigexo yakhe yesikhafu enemibala egqamile kanye nezinye izingcezu ezinesibindi nezicacile. Njengomklami oqondayo ukukhanga kokuhlanganisa ubuciko kanye nenduduzo, lapho ehlulela isigaba sesitayela, uGavigan wayethanda izingubo zakudala ezinobungani nemvelo ezivela kusitudiyo sezingubo esise-Austin uMiranda Bennett ezizohlala iminyaka eminingi ezayo. “Ngiyayithanda inhlanganisela yezindwangu ezihlala isikhathi eside, izithunzi ezihlukile kanye nemininingwane ecashile,” kusho yena. “Lena yindlela yabo yokushintsha imboni.”
UGary Lacey waqala ukwenza izinduku zokudoba ezinhle kakhulu zoqalo eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu edlule ukuze anelise uthando lwakhe ngezinto zendabuko. “Ngacabanga ukuthi uma ngizithanda, kungcono ngithole ukuthi ngingazenza kanjani,” kusho ingcweti eseGainesville, eGeorgia. Ngo-2007, wanezela ama-reel okudoba ama-fly ezenziwe ngezandla. I-reel yakhe ye-salmon yakudala ekhangayo icishe ifane ncamashi nama-reel e-salmon akhiqizwa ngasekupheleni kwawo-1800 ngumenzi we-reel odumile waseNew York u-Edward von Hofe. Abathengi baphendula “zonke izingxenye ezincane kula ma-reel,” kusho uLacey, “njengezikulufo, ama-knob aphenduka ngesandla, kanye nabazingeli abancane abachofoza ukuvala ama-reel. Ngicabanga ukuthi yingakho ama-reel amadala aphindaphindwayo eyizizathu ezidumile zokwamukelwa.”
Ukuze adale imiqulu yakhe, uLacey wasebenzisa izinto eziningi ezifanayo nalezo ezazisenguqulweni yokuqala ye-vom Hofe. Waqopha amaphaneli aseceleni e-reel ngerabha emnyama eqinile, ingalo yediski eyenziwe ngesikhumba, kanye nezinye izingxenye eziningi, okuhlanganisa nesibambo esidumile esinomumo we-S, kwakuqoshwe ngesiliva le-nickel. Waklama ama-reel angamasentimitha amathathu nesigamu ububanzi, njengoba kubonisiwe, ukuze abambe izinhlanzi ezinkulu njenge-salmon, kodwa uLacy wenza ama-reel esitayela se-von Hofe amancane njenge-trout enesisindo esingu-4 no-5. I-reel ngayinye yenziwe ngokwezifiso - usebenza nekhasimende ukuyidala ngokwezidingo zalo. “Kufana noku-oda isibhamu esenziwe ngokwezifiso,” kusho uLacey. “Ufuna ukuqopha? Awufuni ukusebenzisa i-line dialer clicker? Ufuna i-multiplier ibambe umugqa owengeziwe njalo uma uphendula inkinobho? I-reel ngayinye yenziwa eyodwa ngesikhathi ukuze ngikwazi ukuyenza. njengoba iklayenti lifuna.”
UJoey D'Amico ungumculi womculo ophile impilo yakhe yonke owadlala i-trumpet esikoleni samabanga aphansi futhi wathola umfundaze wasekolishi edlala amashubhu e-euphonium. Lapho ethenga i-lathe yokhuni ukusiza ekuvuseleleni ikhaya elinomlando eCharleston, eSouth Carolina, izintshisekelo zakhe ezahlukahlukene zabonakala zihlangana ngokuzumayo. “Ngacabanga ukuthi uma ngingaguqula imizila,” ekhumbula, “Ngiyabheja ukuthi ngingabamba idada.” Ucingo luseshedini ngemuva kwendlu yakhe. Udala ama-chimes ngokwezifiso ezinkuni ezingavamile (i-bocotta, i-African ebony kanye ne-stabilized maple burl). Futhi inomugqa we-acrylic odinga abazingeli ukuthi babheke isabelomali sabo. “Ngenza izinto eziningi,” kusho uD'Amico. “Kodwa kuyinto ehlukile ukungibiza ngokuthi ngingumuntu odumile. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngingaba nobuciko nomculo, kodwa ngingasebenzisa amakhono ami okusebenza ngokhuni ukudlala ngobude bemibhobho, amachweba okukhipha umoya kanye nayo yonke indlela yokwenza into ezwakala “njengedada.”
Ifolda yommese wepokotho kaRoss Tyser enziwe ngokwezifiso inikezelwe kumkhulu wakhe, umenzi wamakhabethe owayephatha ummese wepokotho ephaketheni lakhe levesti njalo ngeSonto. “Uthe wayengazizwa egqoke kahle kwaze kwaba yilapho ephethe ummese ephaketheni lakhe,” kukhumbula umenzi wommese waseSpartanburg, eSouth Carolina. Le folda enesitayela esinjengesibani esingamasentimitha amabili nesigamu eyenziwe ngesandla ngensimbi yaseDamasko enezingqimba ezingu-384, ithandwa kakhulu ngabesifazane nabesilisa. Izikali ze-Mammoth tusk zibukeka zimangalisa. I-titanium liner ihlotshiswe ngamatshe ayigugu ngaphakathi futhi inokhiye oqinile. Ngaphandle kwezikulufo ezimbalwa ezincane, uTaiser wenza yonke ingxenye ngesandla esebenzisa amaqhinga akudala. Wayengenaso isando noma umshini wokucindezela we-hydraulic, okudingekayo ezitolo eziningi zommese. “Yisandla sami sokunene nje, i-anvil kanye nezando ezimbalwa,” esho. Kukhona nezinkumbulo zomkhulu wakhe ehleli everanda, eqopha amathoyizi okhuni futhi elalele imidlalo ye-Atlanta Braves emsakazweni.
Ingcweti eseCharlotte uLarry McIntyre uhlanganisa uthando lwakhe ngomlando waseNingizimu nesifiso sakhe sokuchitha isikhathi emanzini ukuze adale izikebhe, ama-kayak nama-paddle e-SouthernWood Paddle Company ezenziwe ngezandla. Njengomgibeli wesikebhe okhuthele, wakha izinto nge-cypress, ukhuni oludala oluthandwayo oluvela emaxhaphozini aseningizimu nemifudlana, ngendlela "engibopha ngayo endaweni." Waqopha i-paddle yakhe yokuqala ngo-2015 futhi waqala ukusebenza isikhathi esigcwele eminyakeni emine kamuva (wenza nama-skateboard amahle, ama-boat hook nezinye izinto). Nge-paddle, wathenga ipulangwe le-cypress elihlala phansi kumgawuli wezinkuni ongaphansi kwamanzi eBishopville, eSouth Carolina, wasika isimo esiyisisekelo se-paddle esebenzisa i-band saw, wabumba ukhuni esebenzisa i-broach, wabe eseluhlela futhi eluhlanza ngesandla. I-paddle ngayinye igcotshwe ngamafutha e-cannabis. Le paddle ethile ye-canoe inomklamo we-beavertail oguquliwe oguquguqukayo kanye ne-epoxy tip evikelayo esebenza kahle emanzini angajulile. Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi iphonswe emfuleni wamanzi amnyama noma ifakwe eceleni kwekhabhinethi eliseceleni kwechibi, izoba umsebenzi wobuciko wangempela.
Kulo nyaka, u-T. Edward Nickens ubuyela esigabeni se-Outdoor ngomzuliswano wakhe weshumi nambili wokwahlulela. Ngaphezu kokuba negalelo isikhathi eside ku-G&G, uNix ungumbhali weziqondiso eziningi zangaphandle nezincwadi, okuhlanganisa ne-The Great Outdoorsman's Handbook kanye neqoqo lezindatshana, i-The Last Wild Road. UNix, umdobi wempilo yakhe yonke, ushayele ihlombe ukutholakala kukaGary Lacy kwama-drag reel esikhumba aqinile. “Esikhathini lapho izitayela ezintsha zishintsha khona emishinini yokudoba ama-fly,” usho kanje, “kuhle ukucabanga ngomdwebi oshisekayo onikeza impilo entsha kumklamo wama-fly reel aneminyaka engu-140 ubudala.”
Inkampani yezindwangu i-Cicil iqinisekisa ukuthi izindwangu zayo zinobungani nemvelo. ULaura Tripp, owasungula inkampani noCaroline Cockerham ngoNovemba odlule, uyachaza: “Emakhaya ethu, besifuna ukuzungezwa yizinto esingazihlonipha.” kanye noboya obudaywe ngombala, iTripp kanye neCockerham, abenza imikhiqizo yabo ePatagonia eqaphela imvelo. Esikhundleni salokho, uboya buvunwa emapulazini amancane omndeni kanye namabhizinisi ahlangene eNew York, ePennsylvania, naseVermont, okuhlanganisa uboya obumnyama kanye noboya obunsundu (ngokuvamile obubhekwa njengobungathandeki ngoba imibala emnyama ayikwazi ukudaywa). Uboya buthunyelwa eSouth Carolina ukuze buhlanzwe noma bugezwe bese budluliselwa kubagayi besizukulwane sesithathu eNorth Carolina ukuze badwetshwe ngekhadibhodi, baphothwe, balukwe futhi bathungwe. Umkhiqizo wokugcina: omakoti abenziwe ngokwezifiso, angenabo ubuthi, abangadayiwe, abampunga abathambile kanye nabansundu, bathungwe babe yizimo ezigobile futhi bengenawo udoti omkhulu ngesikhathi sokukhiqiza. “Sibheke yonke imininingwane yochungechunge lokunikezwa,” kusho uCockerham. “Uthando ngomkhiqizo kanye nokusimama kuyahambisana.”
Umzingeli uya eziNtabeni Ezibomvu ezidumile eyofuna ikati elidumile futhi ulwa ukuze alibuyisele kanye nefa lomndeni wakhe.
