Guest Author on Joe Campolo’s Site Has Ideas for Older Vets
If you haven’t been to Joe’s website recently, you’re missing some great articles including a current article entitled “Learning Beyond the Battlefield” by guest writer Rhonda Underhill. Rhonda is a health care advocate for senior citizens, veterans and persons with disabilities and who has, along with her husband Pete, created a website dedicated to the health and well being of seniors.
Both the article and the website are well worth a look.

Kitchen Upgrade the Hard Way
Another ancient cooler in our kitchen went to Davy Jones locker this past month, and so we must get a new one. However, the Kenosha Area Vietnam veterans honored the deceased cooler by donating $1000 towards a replacement. Many thanks to the KAVV for being there for us. Thanks Brothers.
