I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.

National Bike to Work Day is a great opportunity to get some exercise,
and to save gas.
Here is what National Bike to Work Day is all about. This information
is straight from the League of American Bicyclists………..
National Bike Month was started by the League. 2006 marks the 50th
anniversary. The event was timed to coincide with the arrival of warmer weather.
It has inspired countless bike rides, safety inspections, commuter challenges,
ribbon-cuttings, “share the road” promotions, and other varied celebrations of
bicycling in communities across the nation.
One of the most popular activities in Bike Month, is encouraging people to
bicycle to work and forsake their motor vehicles for just one day. Bike to Work
Week is the third week in May, and the third Friday in May is designated as
National Bike to Work Day.
The League was founded as the League of American Wheelmen in 1880.
Bicyclists, known then as “wheelmen”, were challenged by rutted roads of gravel
and dirt, and faced antagonism from horsemen, wagon drivers, and pedestrians.

It’s Love a Tree Day. So, go out and give a tree a great big hug.
Trees are a good thing. They give us shade, comfort and warmth. They give off
oxygen, too. There are many, many benefits provided by trees. So, you have good
reason to love a tree or two.
Everyone has a favorite kind of tree. Use today to identify a tree you love,
and to pamper it. Give it a trim. Eliminate competitors around it. Feed it a
dose of fertilizer. Tree spikes work great. And, give the tree some water, if it
is thirsty.

Police Officer’s Memorial Day honors and remembers police officers who gave
their lives while on duty.
Police officers protect us 24/7 every day of the year. It’s a sometimes
dangerous job. They know they are putting their lives at risk to make and keep
us safe. Police officers know the risks, and accept them. Sometimes, they pay
the ultimate price.
Please show our respect and appreciation for police officers
everywhere…today….and everyday.
