Well doesn't our blog format want you to be able to have eighty degree weather sitting on the porch drinking lemonade! Sounds spectacular if you ask me!

The neighborhood in all aspects has been very quiet this week. That's good in a way, but it's also nice to see people out and about.

Let's go back to when I started this site when we were talking about improvement news. Since Mr. Teske has been so generous in helping the front island look so nice and working with Lavon water, he is wondering if all of us can give $25 to help. That will pay for a whole year of watering the front island. Can you help? Please email Bently Farms email! Let’s help him out if you haven't yet! Mr. Teske we appreciate it!

If you haven't sent us your information for our neighborhood directory please do so. Most of us up front here have done it, but any of you in the back haven't yet!

Remember to email if you want to post a party, birthday, anniversary, event of any nature! This is a great way of networking! So far we only have two blogs added to the right, please forward your blog address.

I am going to keep reminding everyone of National Night Out. I need some game ideas and some event ideas from everyone!

The economy is kicking all of our behinds! I have been searching ways to cut corners on bills. Here are a few ideas that are helping my family:
- Turn down your heat by a degree or two, it does add up.
- Try and make sure lights that are on at night get shut off when not in use
- Switch telephone providers for cheaper rates, try Voynage it is great!
- Downgrade your Dish package to a cheaper one
- Eat leftovers
- Call your home insurance to see if they can give you a better rate
- Coupon, coupon, coupon
- Eat out less
- Try to cut your running trips in half
