Day

I, like most everyone else I know, will enjoy a day off work for Memorial Day.  Typically, I do some sort of family gathering that centers around food and some summer time activities like a backyard bar-b-q, a game of horseshoes, etc. I will, however, take the time to pay some respect to my Uncle Bill...

Being a homeowner with a good sized yard and a lot of things to change oil in, I've got quite a list of things that need to be done. I need to change oil in a couple of vehicles. I need to go thru and get the landscaping cleaned up. I need to mow...

There is no more important time in a child's life than when they are young and developing into that person we all hope they will become. It's a special time and job that only a mother can do better than anyone. Thanks to all the moms out there who have given so much to others and have made sacrifices for the benefit of their children...

Lauren Alaina may have given her dad the best Father’s Day gift ever this weekend. The former ‘American Idol’ contestant called him on stage to accompany her on the guitar as she sang a few songs. The real gift — for concert attendees and Alaina’s father — was their father/daughter rendition of ‘When You Say Nothing at All.’

Father’s Day is Sunday so why not swing by and see me at Shipton’s Big R West on Saturday! It’s their annual parking lot sale and you can find some great gifts for Dad and maybe win some goodies too!

Because Americans just aren’t quite fat enough, we’ll soon have two new things to work off at the gym: pizzas dispensed via vending machines and ice cream sundaes with bacon.

Wake up. Sound the alarms. Father’s Day is on Sunday. It seems like we talk about Mother’s Day for a month before it actually happens, but Father’s Day just sneaks up on us every year. If this has happened to you and you aren’t prepared with a gift, it’s not too late.

Sure, your dad said he didn’t want anything for Fathers’ Day, but that might also have been a not-so-subtle hint that thanks to the last several holidays, he has enough ties and golf balls.

Make Yellowstone Park your weekend destination! It’s free this Saturday! The National Park Service is waiving entrance fees at all national parks on Saturday, June 9, for National Get Outdoors Day.

This Memorial Day, Tim McGraw gave military members and veterans a real treat when he put on a military-only live performance at Manhattan’s Beacon Theater. The venue was packed to the hilt with men and women in uniform, but that doesn’t mean that soldiers around the world had to miss out. Thanks to a partnership between the United Service Organization and Chase, the concert streamed live via YouT

On Memorial Day, we remember our fallen American soldiers who have sacrificed their lives in all wars. These heroes fought for our freedom without selfishly thinking of what could be at stake for them and their families.

Most of America might look forward to Memorial Day because it gives us a three-day break from our hectic work lives and an excuse to grill great gobs of red meat over an open pit, but it’s intentions are much nobler.
