DEAR WMCC HOMEOWNERS:

Remembering the Less Fortunate and Charitable Organizations During this season of thanks, please do not forget the charitable organizations that are providing aid for those having a rough time financially. Donations can be made locally to the Redwood Empire Food Bank, the Salvation Army, Red Cross or other charity of your choice. Our “sincere thanks” to WMCC homeowners who regularly donate to our Neighbor Helping Neighbor program. Your generous donations are shared each month with homeowners in our own community. WINTER PREP and SMOKE & CARBON MONOIXIDE DETECTOR MAINTENANCE: Just a reminder to all homeowners, time to complete winter preparation of your homes and MH space. Check and replace weather-stripping where necessary. Clean gutters and downspouts. Wrap exterior water pipes to prevent freezing, change furnace filters and replace your detector or change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. If it is tweeting, it is time to replace the unit. The sealed units are good for three years and usually include an expiration date sticker. See the provided checklist on the Be safe! WELFARE TAX EXEMPTION: It’s that time again. Please find the annual Welfare Tax Survey (WTS) on the last two pages—19 and 20. Completion and return of the document is required of all homeowners. Windsor Mobile Country Club (WMCC) is an affordable housing community and as such we are entitled to a reduction in property taxes equal to the percentage of low-income homeowners. We count on receiving this reduction as it prevents additional pass-through costs to homeowners. Please keep in mind when new applicants are screened for tenancy at WMCC, ROP Property Management makes sure the park population is comprised of a majority folks whose income is below the median income level for Sonoma County. We publish the WTS form in the magazine for three consecutive months in an attempt to reach all homeowners. You only need to fill out the form once and return it to the park office or you may send it directly to ROP at: Resident Owned Parks, Inc., 7420 Greenhaven Drive, Suite 125, Sacramento, CA 95831. PARK OFFICE CLOSED - VETERAN’S DAY, THANKSGIVING DAY and the DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING : If you have an emergency that requires immediate attention, please call the park office at: 707 838-2524. Staff is on-call for emergencies. THANKSGIVING & CHRISTMAS: ROP is happy to provide the HOA with our regular contribution to the annual Thanksgiving and Christmas Potluck dinners. ROP provides the funds for the turkeys and pumpkin pies at Thanksgiving and for the entrée of the HOA’s choosing, and the pumpkin and pecan pies at the Christmas Potluck. Neighbor Helping Neighbor - Need a little help??: Could you use a little extra help in the form of a bag of groceries, household supplies and produce? If so, please call the park office, 707 838-2524. During the fall and winter months, groceries and supplies are delivered every other week. There are no questions asked, all you have to do is, sign up!

THANKS TO HOMEOWNERS: The WMCC staff and I appreciate the great homeowner turn out at the recent ROP/WMCC HOA meeting. These meetings give us the opportunity to discuss topics of interest and of importance to homeowners Sincerely Diane Priest

Golden roasted turkey gets a delicious autumn makeover with fresh sage, garlic, and a sweet-tangy apple cider marinade. Finished with a buttery maple-Dijon glaze, this flavorful twist on a Thanksgiving classic brings all the cozy flavors of the season to the table—without the fuss of roasting a whole bird. Ingredients 2 tbsp Dijon mustard ½ tsp black pepper For the turkey and 2 tbsp honey For the glaze marinade 3 garlic cloves, ½ cup apple cider 1 (3–4 lb.) bone-in minced 2 tbsp maple syrup turkey breast 2 tbsp fresh sage, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 cup apple cider chopped 1 tbsp butter (not vinegar) 1 tsp fresh thyme 2 tbsp olive oil 1 tsp salt

Directions 1. Marinate: Whisk together the cider, olive oil, mustard, honey, garlic, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Place turkey in a large resealable bag or covered dish, pour marinade over it, and refrigerate for 4–8 hours. 2. Prepare: Preheat oven to 350°F. Remove turkey from marinade and discard the used marinade. Pat turkey dry and place skin-side up on a rack in a roasting pan. 3. Roast: Roast for approximately 1½–2 hours, depending on size, until the thickest part of the breast

reaches 165°F on a meat thermometer. 4. Make glaze: While turkey roasts, combine the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan. Simmer for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. 5. Glaze: During the last 20 minutes of roasting, brush the turkey with glaze two or three times, watching carefully to prevent burning. 6. Rest and serve: Let turkey rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with any remaining glaze that has been kept separate from the basting brush.

Eudora Honeysett is eighty-five, fiercely independent, and quite certain she’s had enough of life. With no family of her own and little interest in making new friends, she prefers the quiet predictability of her carefully ordered days. Then ten-year-old Rose moves

in next door. Bursting with color, curiosity, and an irresistible determination to befriend Eudora, Rose begins pulling her reluctant neighbor back into the world. Along with Stanley, a recently widowed gentleman, their unlikely friendship slowly gives Eudora something she thought she’d

left behind: a reason to look forward to tomorrow. Warm, funny, and deeply moving, The Brilliant Life of Eudora Honeysett is a tender story about friendship, second chances, and discovering that it’s never too late for life to surprise you.
