Fall to me is the best time of the year. Why? You get a chance to see the leaves turn orange, brown and red, drink hot chocolate and feel the cool air move in to winterize everything. Not to mention, watching my backyard family of squirrels search for food in preparation for winter. Most important of all is giving THANKS and spending time with family. So, I challenger each person to take time out of your busy schedules and say, THANKS to someone, family, friend or a stranger! This could change someone’s journey in LIFE! Have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving! Melvin D. Fowler, Center Director
