Healthy Hydration = Water + Food Energy Drinks

Staying hydrated to reduce the risk for heat illness is imperative. Water will almost always help people remain hydrated even when working in the heat, but eating regular meals can also help prevent heat illness by replacing salt lost through sweat, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC advises against consuming energy drinks and alcohol when spending time in the hot sun. Many energy drinks contain more caffeine than standard servings of coffee, tea and soft drinks, and excessive caffeine consumption can contribute to dehydration. The CDC also reports that drinking alcohol within 24 hours of working in the heat can increase the risk of heat illness.

of Antiquing

There’s a quiet kind of magic in antique and vintage shops. Push open the door, and you’re instantly wrapped in a world where every item has a story. The scent of old wood and worn leather, the soft tick of a forgotten clock, and shelves filled with everything from weathered books to hand-painted china—it’s like stepping into a living museum you can take home.

Antique shops offer history you can hold: a carved oak mirror from the 1800s, a patchwork quilt stitched by hand, a silver locket with initials etched in delicate script. Vintage shops, on the other hand, bring mid-century charm and nostalgic flair — funky barware, retro fashion, and quirky collectibles just waiting for a second life.

Whether you’re a seasoned collector, a casual browser, or simply love the thrill of the hunt, exploring antique and vintage shops is a weekend well spent. You never know what you’ll find — or what will find you.

Lawn & Garden

How to pick the right trees for your property

As appealing as trees are, not all trees and landscapes make for the perfect match. Careful consideration of a handful of variables can help homeowners determine which trees will make the best ﬁt for their properties.

Height: Avoid trees that will bump into anything when fully grown, as that can adversely affect surrounding greenery and pose a safety hazard. The ADF’s tree sizing guide can be accessed at https://www.arborday. org/trees/rightTreeAndPlace/size.cfm

Canopy spread: Trees grow out as well as up, so it’s important to consider their potential width at maturity as well. The ADF sizing guide can help homeowners get an idea of how wide a tree is likely to be at maturity. Trees that spread out quite a bit don’t necessarily need to be avoided, but it’s important that they’re planted far enough apart so they don’t adversely affect surrounding plants.

Growth rate: Homeowners who want to plant for privacy can consider trees with quick growth rates or purchase more mature trees that are already near full growth. Those who are not in need of instant transformation can try trees with slower growth rates, which the ADF notes typically live longer than fastgrowing species.

Requirements: Different trees require different amounts of sun and moisture and different soil components to thrive. Homeowners can have their soil tested to determine which trees will thrive in it. Local garden centers can be a great resource for homeowners who want insight as to which trees will thrive in their local climates. Trees serve many functions on a property. Choosing the right trees for a landscape requires careful consideration of a host of variables. GT224821
