Dear Friends,

I hope you enjoyed a nice three day weekend and took a moment to reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day. "Thank you" does not begin to express my gratitude to all the men and women of the armed services that have given their lives to defend the freedoms of our Country!

While browsing the internet this past week, I have seen several mentions of a new healthy eating book by a well known nutritionist.

"In America, most people don't eat three servings of fruit and vegetables a day," says nutritionist Jonny Bowden, author of seven books including, most recently, The 150 Most Effective Ways to Boost Your Energy. According to Bowden, there are 10 very healthy foods we don't eat enough of. Guess which foods are listed first and second? That's right, Cherries and Blueberries! It is great to see that others are speaking out about the many benefits of eating these dark skinned fruits! I am going to pick up a copy of this book and suggest that you give all of Jonny Bowden's suggestions a try. The list includes Kiwifruit, Kale, Dark Chocolate, Coconut, Flax Seed, Whey Protein, Wild Salmon and Grass Fed Beef.

I am looking forward to having all my children home from school/college for the summer and spending some family time on our beautiful lakes and streams. We head to Michigan's Upper Peninsula for a few days each summer to a 100 year old log cabin were we catch brook trout, play horseshoes, shoot skeet and enjoy bonfires and spectacular stars. We have even been fortunate enough to see the Northern Lights. If you have never seen the Northern Lights, you have missed one of the earth's greatest natural wonders, if you have, you know exactly what I mean!

My best,
