      (BPT) - Rare is the person who hasn't been impacted by cancer in some way. Maybe it's your parent fighting for their life. Perhaps it's a friend going through a difficult treatment. It could be a neighbor or colleague who was recently diagnosed and who now faces complex decisions.

A new temporary storage facility has been built on Route 15 here in Zion Crossroads. I am constantly amazed at how popular these types of places are. Apparently many of us have more stuff than can fit into our home, so we rent space to store it. And not just any space, but space that is both heated and air conditioned! Our forefathers would not understand this phenomenon, I’m sure. Read more

While there are drawbacks to wintertime walks on the big planet, there are also some big advantages. There are no issues with humidity and sweating, there are no flies, ticks or mosquitoes looking to snack on you, no spider webs to wrap around your face and no danger of surprise or attack from snakes.

It’s a wind-down month … winding down from six weeks of holidays and feasts, and an excess of sports and salty, fattening snacks. There’s not a great deal to look forward to in January except returning useless gifts or a White Sale at Macy’s or sudden and total isolation from the extended family, and that can be a good thing. There are useful things that need doing: last-minute yardwork, perhaps, or work on taxes, thank-you’s to be written. Read more

Dear readers, a couple of days after Christmas I went to the Zion Crossroads Walmart to pick up some milk. And thank goodness I did! Because the store shelves were already fully stocked with Valentine’s Day candy, and I was able to purchase some before they ran out. Everyone knows heart-shaped chocolate tastes best when it’s eaten with the last bit of Christmas eggnog! Read more

One of my favorite things to do during the holidays is to drive around and look at homes decorated for Christmas. You just can’t beat touring a neighborhood or two in a warm vehicle, while sipping a hot beverage. And as a bonus, this is a perfectly acceptable physically distanced activity to do in 2020.

If you want a cheap tour of the Holy Land, check for a church group going in January – but dress warmly and carry a raincoat. That’s the rainy season there, tourists are scarce, and thus rates are low. Nazareth is about the same 33-degree-north latitude as San Diego and Phoenix, but you won’t be in either. Not even close. December and January are the rainy months and temperatures run in the low 50s.  Read more

This past election I served as a poll watcher at the Mineral Baptist Church. I had never done this, and kind of fell into it. I’d like to share my experiences there so that people can gain an understanding of how the voting process works from the perspective of the people who administer it.  Read more

Once or twice a week I pass a local business sign which proclaims “Veteran-own and operated.” No doubt that’s supposed to make me favor this business over those not owned by veterans, but I am not convinced. There’s nothing here that guarantees “best work in the county” or “best prices.” We owe our veterans much—certainly better benefits and medical treatment than they usually get. But do they automatically go to the front of the line when you need a power washing or fridge repair? Read more
