We all look for the perfect watermelon. Look for the field spot, the area where the melon rested on the ground while ripening. The color serves as a clue to what your watermelon will look like inside.
A buttery yellow or light orange field spot indicates a ripe and sweet watermelon, while a white or light green spot may mean immaturity. A bright sunflower yellow ground spot means it’s overripe; a sign that it will have a mushy, grainy texture.
Watermelon is 92% water. The weight of a watermelon is also a key indicator of its ripeness. It should feel heavy for its size.
A heavier one is a good sign of a riper, juicier melon.
A typical 20-pound watermelon contains about 1 1/2 gallons of water. The world's heaviest watermelon weighed 350 pounds.
National Dollar Day commemorates the day Congress established the U.S. monetary system in 1786. ‘13’ is everywhere on a $1 dollar bill. The designers wanted to honor the 13 original colonies. There are 13 arrows in the eagle’s left talon. Its shield has 13 stripes. Above the eagle's head, there is a cloud with 13 stars. And there are also 13 “steps” on the pyramid. At the base of the pyramid are the Roman numerals MDCCLXXV, the symbol for 1776, which is the date of the Declaration of Independence. Where is your dollar now? You can track where it has been. Visit the Where’s George website https://www.wheresgeorge.com. Enter the serial number. After you spend it, track where your dollar travels next.
Did you know that only twelve percent of the world is left handed? Left-handers constitute the biggest minority group in the world! Neuroscientists have shown that left-handers use the right hemisphere of their cerebrum, which is widely viewed as the seat of creativity, more often than right handers. Leonardo da Vinci and Albert Einstein are considered some of the most famous left-handed individuals.
When nothing goes right go left.”
Many, Many, Many thanks to Susan Heins and all the helping hands that made this event possible!
Thank you to Mr. Kato and Rancho La Siesta Management for their generous support for the 4th of July BBQ

It’s a myth that all dogs are natural swimmers. You should never toss your dog into a pool or lake to “see if he can swim.” Some dogs love water others don’t. And that’s totally okay!
Dogs that usually struggle with swimming:
• Breeds with short legs and long bodies (like Dachshunds)
• Flat-faced breeds like Bulldogs and Pugs
• Heavily built dogs like Rottweilers and Dobermans
• Small dogs like Chihuahuas (they get cold easily and can be scared) Dogs that often love water:
• Labrador Retrievers
• Golden Retrievers
• Newfoundland’s (they even have webbed feet!)
• Portuguese Water Dogs
• Standard Poodles
These breeds usually have water-resistant coats and bodies made for swimming.
Tips to protect your pup:
• Use a dog life jacket, especially in lakes or the ocean.
• Look for a jacket with a handle and attach a leash if needed.
• Watch out for strong currents or steep drop-offs.
• Don’t let your dog swim too far — they can get tired quickly.
• In pools, use a ramp and teach your dog how to get out.
• Always watch your dog while they’re in or near water.
• Offer clean drinking water so they don’t drink pool or dirty water. After swimming:
• Rinse off chlorine, salt, or lake water to keep their skin healthy.
• Avoid water with algae some types can be dangerous.
Every dog is different. If your dog doesn’t enjoy swimming, don’t push it. There are plenty of other ways to have fun together!

Just a warning that many people have been receiving these text message scams on their cell phones. They seem to be nationwide, very common scams, posing as different companies and reworded.
The first clue on this is the phone number that it comes from. This is an international number with the (+63) at the beginning. Many scams are from foreign countries.
This text below is for a Toll Violation from an obscure email address that has nothing to do with tolls.
Another scam clue is pressure to act immediately or suffer the consequences. They always try to make it seem URGENT to try and catch you off guard
Just a heads-up if a message asks you to reply 'Y' and click a link or copy it into your browser, it's best to avoid it, as it could put your information at risk. That is a common tactic used in scams.
The best thing to do is to click here

I would visualize things coming to me. It would just make me feel better. Visualization works if you work hard. That's the thing. You can't just visualize and go eat a sandwich."
Jim Carrey
When we forget to use visualization and imagination, it is like not using our minds.

You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi
The start is what stops most people. Don Shula
I realized early on that success was tied to not giving up. Most people in this business gave up and went on to other things. If you simply didn't give up, you would outlast the people who came in on the bus with you.
Harrison Ford
Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong, these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.
Winston Churchill
The difference between try and triumph is a little "umph."

A wife was making a breakfast of fried eggs for her husband.
Suddenly, her husband burst into the kitchen. "Careful," he said, "CAREFUL! Put in some more butter!
Oh my gosh! You're cooking too many at once. Turn them! TURN THEM NOW! We need more butter.
Oh my gosh! They're going to STICK! Careful. I said CAREFUL!
You NEVER listen to me when you're cooking! Never! Turn them! Hurry up! You know you always forget to salt them. Use the salt!"
The wife stared at him. "What in the world is wrong with you? You think I don't know how to fry a couple of eggs?"
The husband calmly replied, "I just wanted to show you what it feels like when I'm driving!"
Airman Jones was assigned to the induction center to sell recruits GI insurance benefits.
Captain Smith noticed that Jones had a 100% record for insurance sales. It had never happened before.
The Captain then sat in the room and listened to Jones's sales pitch. Jones explained the basics of the insurance.
"If you have GI Insurance and get killed in battle, the government has to pay $200,000 to your beneficiaries. If you don't have GI insurance, and get killed in battle, the government only has to pay $6,000. Now, who do you think they send into battle first?"
