Walden iii senior living community, Wind gap, PAPersonal care/independent living

We were at an impass. We wanted Mom to consider Personal Care but she was dead set against it. She can manage just fine, she insisted. I love her dearly and am happy to do for her but I can only check on her so of-ten and I worry constantly. She reluctantly agreed to visit Walden III and they suggested a compromise. Independent Living! There are lovely apartments on the campus for folks like Mom and you can select whatever

services you want from meals to housekeeping to medication reminders and more. Well she shocked us all by signing up! She gets to retain her independence and her dog which was a big concern and my Brother and I enjoy the comfort and securi-ty of knowing that help is always at hand. They see her every day when they deliver her meals or come to clean or pick up her laundry and she has a call bell that can summon help anytime of the day or night. Another plus is that she has made friends with people both in the facility and the other apartments. So yes it was a compro-mise but in my view it was a win-win!

-John Brown

Are you ready for outdoor barbecues? LTHS is looking for-ward to their annual spring outdoor barbe-cue in a few weeks. If you are interested in purchasing a chicken or pulled pork din-ner made by Lorah's Roasters on Saturday, May 21, contact one of the society members or call 610-440-0151 to order your tickets. You may order a chicken or pork dinner, with baked potato, cole slaw, roll and a piece of cake for $10.00. Ex-tra baked goods will be available for pur-chase. The sale will be held outside the LT Historical Centre, Route 248, Pennsville, and orders may be picked up there from 1 to 4:30 p.m. that day. Preferably, tickets are sold in advance, but a limited num-ber of dinners will be available for people without advance tick-ets. Reserve the date on your calendar - you won't have to cook or bake - just pick up the ready-made dinners and baked goods at the LT Historical Cen-tre!

(NAPSA)-Forget about spotting the

proverbial robin. For many, the first real sign of Spring is get-ting their lawn mower and other small-en-gine equipment out of storage and ready for the season. But before you rev

Get Your Mowers Running Quick-ly This Spring

up the motor, it’s im-portant to remember that your equipment has been sitting for months and you need to take proper steps to get it in working order.Continued on Page 11

Get Your Mowers Running

Continued FromPage 10

Proper preparation yields a variety of ben-efits, including better performance, saved maintenance costs and maximizing the life of your machine. To help get your ma-chines ready for the season ahead, here are some tips to get you started. • Clean ‘em up. Af-ter sitting in a storage shed for a few months, your machines have likely acquired a nice layer of dust, dirt and grime. Make sure to do a thorough cleaning of

the entire machine and check for any damage or possible blockages. • Never a dull moment. If you are working on your lawn mower, hedge trim-mer or any other ma-chine with a blade, the

Spring tune-up is an excellent time to make sure it’s in prime cut-ting shape. The blade should be sharpened at least once a year. While the blade is off, it’s also a good time to finish cleaning the underside of the ma-chine. • Don’t forget the filter. It’s a good idea to start the season with a clean filter. If the ma-chine has a foam filter, you can clean it with soap and water. How-ever, if it’s a paper fil-

ter, it’s best to replace it with a new one. • A well-oiled ma-chine. Whether it’s a lawn mower, motorcy-cle or ATV, small-en-gine equipment will work better if it’s well lubricated, particu-

larly if it has been in storage. Make sure to oil the wheel bearings and other moving parts. • Prepare your en-gine. To make sure your engine starts up on the first try this

Spring, try a fuel addi-tive such as Start Your Engines! It’s a fuel re-vitalizer designed for use with any small 2- and 4-cycle motors that have been sitting in storage and are ready to reactivate.

Just pour it directly into the gas tank, and the engine should start up fast, hassle-free. As an added bonus, it attacks and dissolves any gum or varnish buildup.Continued on Page 12

Further Findings • Warm welcome. The survey also found that more than two in five Americans expect-ed their winter home energy costs to stay the same compared to last winter, while a quarter expected costs to decrease. One rea-son may be that warm-er global temperatures and a significant de-crease in natural gas and oil prices have led Americans to be less concerned about heat-ing costs. • Emergency fund

fail. The survey also found that 23 percent of homeowners have no savings set aside to cover the cost of an emergency home repair. Of those home-owners who do have money set aside, 43 percent have $1,000 or

less. This can be cause for concern, consid-ering the disparity between reality and expectations of home-owners on matters of emergency home re-pairs. Sixty-nine per-cent of homeowners thought it unlikely

they would experi-ence a major home repair emergency in the next 12 months-but more than half reported having expe-rienced one in the last 12 months.

(NAPS) - When your need to haul stuff for work or DIY proj-ects around the yard, a pickup truck is invalu-able. The downfall of pickup trucks is the lack of secure storage and ability to carry longer items. Truck boxes and racks are a perfect solution for these challenges.

Truck Rack Facts For the workman looking for tough, well-build storage and carrying solutions, there are many op-tions on the market. Here are some features to look for when you are in the market: • Because your truck will be exposed to the elements, look for items made of aluminum. Not only are aluminum prod-ucts rust resistant,

they are much lighter without compromis-ing strength. Tradi-tional steel truck racks can weigh up to 200 pounds, eating up a significant portion of the truck bed’s weight capacity and decreas-ing gas mileage. • For a higher-qual-ity finish and more style, look for racks and boxes that have been powder coated. This will also provide longer life to these

products. • Because of their surface area, look for racks that are aerody-namic. This helps to slice through the wind and keep any wind noise to a minimum. • Some racks are equipped with dual T-slot channels in crossbars, enabling you to mount acces-sories on the top or bottom of the crossbar and store things below the rack.

• Only some of the many options you see on shelves and online are made in the U.S.A., which many people prefer.

Best Chest In addition, you can improve your truck’s storage capacity with lightweight aluminum or tough steel utility chests, boxes, under-mount, cases and even special cages for trans-porting dogs.

Loading Tips

Once your truck is fully equipped, load-ing it up can be easier if you heed six hints: 1. Load the heavi-est items first, in front and on the floor. 2. Load lightest items last, on the top and to the rear. 3. Pack all items closely and firmly. 4. Secure partial loads with straps, as close to the front of the cargo area as pos-sible.

5. Never load car-go on the outside of a truck. 6. Always be sure the cargo door is closed and latched se-curely.
