The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently reported that the amount of uneaten food in American homes and restaurants in 2008 was about $390 in wasted food per each U.S. consumer. This is more than the average American spends on food each month.

Summer 2013 Reminders for Livestock

A big applause

I would like to send out a big applause to New Castle for their great Spring Fling, especially the parade. It was great.

I especially want to extend a great applause and salute to Jeff and Pam Thoke  for all the time, work and effort, they put into  making it so pleasant for the Veterans. The time and expense they extended will never be forgotten.  It was so pleasant and well planned.

Thanks again and I’m sure all of the veterans and especially myself will never forget all you did.
