Holidays: We cannot forget any of our many veterans on Veteran's Day celebrated on Friday, November 11th. Always remember that it was through their sacrifice that we have the freedom to do what we want to do, say what we want to say, and be who we want to be. Make a pledge to live up to the gift of liberty every day. Enjoy Thanksgiving Season with loved ones and remember all of the things that we are thankful for in our daily lives.

The Garden: Don't put away the rake until all of the leaves and pine needles have fallen to the ground. Even though lawns rest in winter, they still need all the winter sunlight they can get. Also, take the time to organize, clean, and sharpen your garden tools. Keep them from underfoot, cleaned, and sharpened and they will be ready to go come spring. And don't forget the lawn mower. Drain the gas tank, change the oil, check the spark plug for wear, and sharpen those blades!
