Thanksgiving is fast approaching! I always feel like the Holiday just seems to get lost in between Halloween and Christmas! IF you think about it; it is the only holiday you don’t have to feel the pressure of finding the prefect costume and going into debt to buy gifts that will eventually sit in a corner or shelf somewhere in your home. I feel the most important gift we can give to each other is a helping hand, gentle touch, quick call or just a simple hello. The most important gift we can give someone is our time. I’m trying to get a rep...

The leaves were on the trees one minute and the next they are all laying on the ground. I actually like walking through the leaves on the sidewalk, it reminds me of my childhood and running to jump into a pile of leaves to be covered in them. I may have been hiding or waiting to scare somebody, usually my brother. The leaves sound like they are making noise with a bullhorn when you are trying to be quiet within them. The crunch and crackle that tell you fall is here. Our condolences go out to the family of Donald (Mike) Randall Thank you to...
