What I’m Thankful For…

turkey day

By Dail Gregory, US Navy Veteran, ET Contributer

Not many people reading this article will remember the old television series called “I Remember Mamma” and certainly almost none of the young men and women of our present day armed forces will remember it. I shudder when I think of how old I am getting, because I do remember it very well. “I Remember Mamma” was a TV series on every week about a Swedish family that came to America to start a new life away from the old country.

The enclosure that surrounds the pool at the clubhouse at the Woods is better insulated, losing less heat; therefore it is more efficient and economical to maintain throughout the seasons.

Cool Halloween Costumes That Will Never Go Out of Style

istock_000004269053xsmall

By Benedict Smythe Suler

Admit it, you’re one of those people who are too worried about dressing up in a costume during Halloween because you immediately think about how stupid you might look. To a lot of people Halloween is that time of the year to dress either amazingly or embarrassingly. In other words it’s a hit or miss prospect. This might be true, but only if you’re planning to dress up like a ghost or a clown. That’s because dressing up for Halloween doesn’t have to involve white make up, a red nose and big shoes, or a white long dress and brown paper bag with two holes. With a little dash of resourcefulness and awareness of characters in mainstream media, you can find some great costume ideas that will keep you looking attractive and confident.
