News Corner Continued Jean Bowdoin, Sara Jones’ mother, passed away very quickly and peacefully at dinner on September 30, 2026. She was born on January 26, 1925 and lived to be 101 years old. Jean is well known here at Villa Madeira. She attended all the dinners with Sara and Dennis. She also worked in the office at the Senior Travel Center, planning and going on trips for over 20 years before she retired a few years ago. She served in the United States Navy, had a successful career as an accountant and was a lifelong believer in “staying active in both body and mind.” She was the mother of one daughter, Sara, grandmother to two grandchildren and two greatgrandchildren. Jean at her 100th Birthday celebration

Jean will be remembered for her kindness, patience, and gentle spirit.

She was an AMAZING and INSPIRING Woman (words quoted from Sara). May you rest in peace, Jean!

30 3rd Qtr November: Full Beaver Moon Moon 1:00 PM Water Aerobics

This was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Full Beaver Moon comes from the fact that the beavers are now actively preparing for winter. It is sometimes also referred to as the Frosty Moon.

Veterans Day What is Veterans Day? Veterans Day is a federal holiday in the United States, observed officially on November 11, regardless of the day of the week on which it falls.

What Does Veterans Day Mean? Veterans Day is an important day set aside to honor and show appreciation for all who have served in the United States military – in wartime or peacetime, living or deceased. “We can‟t all be heroes; someone has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.” —Roy Rogers-In Canada, November 11 is called Remembrance Day. This day, more similar to Memorial Day than Veterans Day, honors veterans who have died in service to their country.

What’s the Difference Between Veterans Day and Memorial Day? On both Veterans Day and Memorial Day, it’s customary to spend time remembering and honoring the countless veterans who have served the United Stat es throughout the country;s history. However, there is a distinction between the two holidays:  Veterans Day is the day set aside to thank and honor all who have served, living or deceased, but in particular the living veterans amoung us.  Memorial Day specifically commemorates the men and women who died while serving their country and made the ultimate sacrifice.

Thanksgiving Cdr. John O. Stull, USN (Ret.) tells about an event that happened many years ago when he and his wife were on a short Thanksgiving vacation in Palm Springs. They had gone to see the movie production of the musical, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF. The show is about a Jewish family in turn of the century Russia who are finally driven out of their village. In spite of the somber theme, it is generally upbeat, full of humor and great songs. However, when Commodore Stull and his wife left the theater and reached their station wagon in the parking lot, they found a man leaning up against the car beside theirs, crying his heart out. He was middle-aged, well dressed and the car was a new Mercedes Benz. A woman in a long mink coat, her hand glittering with diamonds, was patting his back in a half-hearted way. She was obviously very embarrassed. “What is it?” she asked, frantically. “What’s the matter? It was just a musical.” “It wasn’t just a musical,” the man sobbed. “that could have been my family. I suddenly thought what if there had been no America. America!” he practically shouted. “Don’t you see what it means?” Stull said that he was not sure what that man’s wife saw, but that he and his wife stood practically transfixed. Through that unexpected stranger, they saw an unexpected angle of the meaning of Thanksgiving, a dreadful vision of what the world would have been without the saving shores of our nation. If you live in a free land and you have someone who loves you, you are very, very rich. *****************

Thanksgiving Becomes a National Holiday The first national celebration of Thanksgiving was observed for a slightly different reason than a celebrqtion of the harvest – it was in honor of the creation of the new United States Constitution! In 1789, President George Washington issued a proclamation designating November 26 of that year as a “Day of Publick Thanksgivin” to recognize the role of Providence in creating the new United States and the new federal Constitution. Washington was in his first term as president, and a young nation had just emerged successfully from the Revolution. Washington called on the people of the United States to acknowledge God for affording them “an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.” This was the first time Thanksgiving was celebrated under the new Constitution. 8

The Good Doctor A doctor who had devoted his life to helping the underprivileged lived over a liquor store in the poor section of a large city. In front of the liquor store was a sign reading: Dr. Williams is Upstairs. When he died, he had no relatives and he left no money for his burial. He had never asked for payment from anyone he had ever treated. Friends and patients scraped enough money together to bury the good doctor, but they had no money for a tombstone. It appeared that his grave was going to be unmarked until someone came up with a wonderful suggestion. They took the sign from in front of the liquor store and nailed it to a post over his grave. It made a lovely epitaph: Dr. Williams is Upstairs. 10

Get to Know Your Neighbor – by Ruth Nichols Ramon Javier, Maintenance Manager Meet our new maintenance manager, Ramon. He started working at Villa Madeira August 31. You have probably seen him around the park in the cart taking care of maintenance issues and maybe have already met him. If so, you have probably found him to be very friendly and always wearing a big smile. He was happy that John, the last maintenance person, was able to spend two weeks training him before he left. Ramon said he found it to be helpful and very much appreciated that time! He comes to us with many years in the trade, starting with working for his stepfather’s construction company as a teenager and later with a restoration company. He is still doing part time jobs which have come mostly from referrals. Ramon is an Escondido native, born and raised here, with a brother and a sister. It was a small town and they could ride their bikes all over. They spent a lot of time at the YMCA where they had a bike track. He started fishing when he 10 years old at Dixon Lake and it is still his favorite pastime. From lakes to the ocean, he does it all. His best catch was a 55 pound bluefin tuna just last year. Also, the family enjoys camping, either at the beaches or the deserts, depending on the time of year. He has lived in Valley Center for the past six years with his wife, Amber. They have been together for 20 years and have a 17 year old daughter, Heaven, who is a junior in high school. She is getting her driving permit and hopes to be driving herself to school soon. She loves fishing and has been going with her dad since she was two years old. She is looking forward to a 1 ½ day ocean trip next year. Ramon says he enjoys working here and has found everyone to be friendly and helpful! He tells us to let him know if we see anything that needs attention. Although he checks the park every day, he doesn’t always see everything. He appreciates our help!

Remarkable

Museums

George Edw. Seymour Preface: Can we be real for a second? Museums can be...boring. It's true that many museums are enlightening, historical, and visually compelling. But sometimes we need a little something extra to keep our attention from wandering. If you're part of the group who doesn't love museums, consider that maybe you just haven't found the right museum. Here are museums even people who hate museums will enjoy. Museum of Bad Art: is a privately owned museum whose stated aim is "to celebrate the labor of artists whose work would be displayed and appreciated in no other forum". It was originally in Dedham, Massachusetts, and is currently in Boston, Massachusetts. Its permanent collection includes over 700 pieces of "art too bad to be ignored", 25 to 35 of which are on public display at any one time. MOBA was founded in 1993. https://museumofbadart.org/ Museum of Old Art and New: is an art museum located within the Moorilla winery on the Berriedale peninsula in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. It is the largest privately funded museum in the Southern Hemisphere. MONA houses ancient, modern and contemporary art from the David Walsh collection. Noted for its central themes of sex and death, the museum has been described by Walsh as a "subversive adult Disneyland".MONA was officially opened 21 January 2011. https://mona.net.au/ La Cité du Vin: Located in the world-renowned wine region of Bordeaux, France, ait is anything but a stuffy, boring museum. As one of the largest wine museums in the world, La Cité du Vin stands out against the Bordeaux skyline — it’s shaped like a giant red wine decanter! Inside, discover the rich history of winemaking. https://www.laciteduvin.com/en The Museum of Broken Relationships is a museum in Zagreb, Croatia, founded by artists Olinka Vištica and Dražen Grubišić. It grew from a traveling exhibition revolving around the concept of failed relationships and their ruins in 2003. The museum features a diverse collection of objects, each representing a personal story of a past relationship, contributing to a broader narrative of human emotional experiences. https://brokenships.com/ Air and Space Museum: No ordinary air and space museum — the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center boasts some of the most prized aircraft in aviation history, including World War II bombers, the Space Shuttle Discovery, and the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. The 1992 museum has 3,000 artifacts, https://www.si.edu/museums/air-and-space-museum-udvar-hazy-center Amsterdam Cheese Museum: (2014) Situated along a picturesque canal is a quaint culinary experience called the Amsterdam Cheese Museum. From vintage gouda to award-winning goat cheese, this museum specializes in edible exhibits and is best-visited on an empty stomach. Learn from one of the museum’s cheese guides about the history of Dutch cheese making before stepping into the store to purchase some delicious souvenirs. https://www.cheesemuseumamsterdam.com/ Strong National Museum of Play 1969: Your inner child will have a blast visiting the world’s most comprehensive toy collection at the Strong National Museum of Play in upstate New York. Tour hundreds of interactive exhibits about toys, board games, dolls, video games, books, and more. Experience the evolution of Barbie, explore the Sesame Street neighborhood, see the very first Monopoly board game ever made. https://www.museumofplay.org/ Vasa Museum: A massive wooden warship might not seem like most people's first choice for a museum, but Sweden has never done things by the book. The Vasa Museum (1990) displays an almost intact 17th-century ship, which sank in 1628 and has been salvaged. The museum was built around the ship, which stands on a dry dock. https://www.vasamuseet.se/en Vigeland Sculpture Park: The sculpture park is Gustav Vigeland's life work, comprising over 200 sculptures in granite, bronze and wrought iron. It was installed mainly in the period 1940-1949. In 1924, the city council agreed that the sculptor's monumental Fountain was to be erected in Frogner Park. At that time, Vigeland's park project had expanded to include the Monolith and the Bridge. https://vigeland.museum.no/en/vigelandpark Design Museum: London's Design Museum (2016) covers the whole wide world of design, from industrial to graphic, fashion and architecture. The museum celebrates all things visual, with exhibitions displaying everything from an old Model T Ford to Vogue Magazine covers to interior design layouts. The museum will make you stop and appreciate the beauty of the everyday objects around you, and the geniuses who designed them. https://designmuseum.org/ Museum of Ice Cream: The Museum of Ice Cream (2016) is pure, pink and delightful. It has popped up across the U.S., with limited engagements in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, and Miami over the past few years. The museum is characterized by brightly-colored rooms with delicious themes. https://www.museumoficecream.com/#home-section Gibbs Farm: (1940) If you associate museums with stuffy buildings filled with priceless paintings and endless corridors, you may need to update your definition. Gibbs Farm outside Auckland is less museum, more sprawling ranch. It's common for sheep to be your companion as you explore these massive sculptures. https://www.gibbsfarm.org.nz/index.php

Expressions That Changed Over Time George Edw. Seymour

Have you ever adopted expressions like "my bad" or "doggy dog world"? Let’s at least analyze what is grammatically off in them, and see what versions we could use instead. Expression

Image

Explanation "Spitting image" is grammatically correct as an expression, but it’s a rather odd one. It likely began as "spirit and image," referring to someone who carries both the essence and appearance of another. Over time, it evolved into "spit and image," and eventually, speakers slurred it into "spitting image," to the point where we all understand a senseless expression. The correct version: "My mistake," or any version that replaces "bad" with a noun. It might sound casual or charismatic, but it’s grammatically odd. Technically, the phrase lacks a noun—"bad" is an adjective. A bad what? Decision? Move? The phrase allegedly originated as slang in street basketball during the 1980s, where it was a quick way to own up to a mistake, much like saying "my oops."

Spitting Image

My Bad

For All Intensive Purposes

This is a classic example of an eggcorn—a misheard phrase that still seems logical. "Intensive" means extreme or focused, so "for all intensive purposes" isn’t entirely nonsensical. But it’s not the original expression. “For all intents and purposes" dates back to 16th-century English law and meant "in every practical sense."

Nip It In The Butt

Correct version: Nip it in the bud! The original phrase refers to stopping something early, before it blossoms, like cutting a flower bud. Somewhere along the line, "bud" became "butt," which admittedly sounds funnier but changes the meaning entirely.

One In The Same

The correct version: One and the same. This phrase means that two things are identical. Some people might associate the incorrect version with phrases like "two peas in the same pod" or "two people in the same club." The mix-up is likely from speaking quickl—"one’n the same" rolls off the tongue and blends the words.

Case And Point

The correct version: Case in point. The correct expression refers to a particular instance that illustrates your broader point. It originated in legal and rhetorical contexts, where a "case" (meaning a legal case or illustrative example) is "in point"— that is, directly relevant to the issue at hand.

Should Of, Would Of, Could Of

The correct version: Should have, would have, could have. The confusion arises from how contractions like "should’ve," "would’ve," and "could’ve" sound when spoken. The word "of" is a preposition—it doesn’t function as a helping verb and doesn’t belong anywhere near modal verbs like "should," "would," or "could." The correct version: Vice versa (Latin for "the other way around") Since this expression is often picked up through speech rather than reading, many people mispronounce or misspell it. Despite how it sounds, it has nothing to do with the word "vice." It’s frequently mangled in casual conversation, but it’s correctly pronounced "vice ver-sa." The correct version: Scapegoat (someone who takes the blame). Okay, this one is easy to mishear. The term "scapegoat" was coined in the 16th century Tyndale Bible to describe a goat ritually burdened with the sins of the people and then sent into the wilderness. But to a child (or a distracted adult), "scapegoat" can sound like "escape goat," which amusingly suggests fleeing a crime scene.

Vice-a Versa

Escape Goat

Mute Point

The correct version: Moot point. Originally, a "moot point" referred to a debatable topic in British law schools—open to argument or discussion. Somewhere along the line, we collectively decided it meant the opposite: no longer worth arguing at all. Hence, the mix-up with "mute point", which probably comes from people associating "mute" with "silent" or "not worth discussing," which fits the mistaken interpretation.
