If you want quaintness, all you need to do is visit Shipshewana, Indiana, located about a half-hour southeast of Three Rivers on Indiana Highway 5. We spent a weekend there recently visiting with other Lion friends. It was sort of a reunion. We had all gathered there five years ago, when the Lions of Michigan held their State Convention at …

They call me “Tenor”. I guess because I have a beautiful voice. I am about three years old, maybe a collie mix. I am neutered and weigh 66 pounds. I am friendly and I love to play on the agility equipment here in the play yard. The ladies here say I am partially housebroken. I would like to find my …

I’ve never considered myself a party animal. I’m not a “teetotaler”, but I do believe that you don’t have to drink to have an enjoyable time. The consumption of alcohol is glorified on television more and more these days. I remember one commercial that showed a lady picking up necessary groceries in preparation for an upcoming storm.

I’m not a major fan of crowds; as a matter of fact, I really didn’t want to attend the …

My name is Cain and I am a male German Shepherd. I’m four (4) years old and a gentleman. I walk fairly nicely on leash. I want your attention and will put the top of my head in your hand. I may do better with a quieter home. Please come in to see me and give me a new loving …

Last August, my brother and I attended the “Thunder Over Michigan” air show at Willow Run Airport near Detroit. The air show was more than worth the price of the ticket. The main reason for going to the event was to take a ride in a B-17 aircraft. I mentioned this experience in a column about a month later, so …

The earth is huge. There are over 7.5 billion people living on the earth. The earth is about 24,874 miles tall and 24,860 miles around, so when we were told as a child, teen or young adult, that “it’s a big world out there”, they weren’t kidding.
