A pleasant day at the lake may force some swimmers to deal with an itchy rash after taking a dip in Surveyors Lake in Kikomun Creek Provincial Park.
Increased reports of Swimmer's Itch have been coming from people swimming in the lake in recent weeks
According to BC Parks, Swimmer's Itch is a temporary, itchy rash caused by small, worm-like parasites called schistosomes. Infestations of these parasites are not uncommon in several East Kootenay lakes during the summer.
Swimmer's Itch is caused when the parasites attempt to enter a person's bloodstream, as the schistosomes search for a host. The larvae are killed by the human immune system shortly after entering the skin.
"They are often in the shallow water of freshwater lakes," said Dr. Siu-Kae Yeong, resident public health doctor with Interior Health. "After you swim, it's good if you can dry off and take a shower as soon as possible. That will let you clear off any of them (schistosomes) and prevent any further reaction."
Dr. Yeong said the parasites can also be avoided by entering the water at a deeper point, such as a dock.
Symptoms include a tingling sensation shortly after coming out of the water, red spots and eventual itching where the parasites enter the body.
"There are few ways you can reduce itchiness: one is to try calamine lotion or taking a bath with baking soda or oatmeal," said Yeong. "Some people take antihistamines to help them. However, if it's for children, then we would advise you to check with your family doctor."
Signs have been placed around the day-use area in the park near Surveyors Lake to notify visitors of the presence of schistosomes in the water.

Bionomics of five wood-nesting solitary species of bees (Hym., Megachilidae), with emphasis on flower relationships
1978A detailed description and comparison was done on the bionomics of five species of wood-nesting bees: Chelostoma maxillosum (L.), C. rapunculi Lep., C. campanularum (K.), Heriades truncorum (L.), and Osmia tuberculata Nyl. The diurnal flight activity was best explained by separate temperature and light thresholds. The temperature thresholds of the different species ranged from 16.5 to 19°C. The available nest cavities were divided among the species mainly according to their size, partly according to the sun-shade gradient. The nest structure and the activities of the females at the nest entrances were studied in detail.
The flowers visited for food were studied mainly by pollen and sugar analyses of the pollen loads and guts. The pollen and nectar presentation of the main food plants was also studied. C. maxillosum is an oligolege of Ranunculus. C. campanularum and C. rapunculi are both oligoleges of Campanula, but do not compete for nest cavities, which are the most limiting resource. H. truncorum is widely oligolectic and specialized to the family Compositae. O. tuberculate is polylectic. The main nectar sources were the same as the main pollen sources, but many other flower species were occasionally visited for nectar. The pollen in the flowers - and therefore also in the pollen loads - was contaminated with foreign pollen by wind and insects. All the species carry pollen loads dry. The bees mostly collected both pollen and nectar on the same foraging trip, but also only pollen or only nectar. The heaviest loads were about 1/4 - 1/3 of the weight of the bee.

Commercial Insurance
Disasters happen every day across the nation. It's how you recover that allows you to move forward. Commercial insurance can protect your business so that you can continue to operate effectively. At Massabni Insurance & Financial, Inc., we're here to help you explore the various policy options.
What commercial insurance is needed?
Often, it's not just one type of commercial insurance that's needed to protect a business. It all depends on your industry, how many employees you have, and other details. Our insurance agents can help you navigate the types of commercial insurance needed based on your operations.
There are a few common policies to consider:
- Liability: Protects you when someone gets hurt on your property or you damage someone else's property.
- Property: Protects the building you operate from and the inventory inside of it.
- Auto: Offers commercial coverage for any business vehicle.
- Worker's compensation: Protects your employees if they're injured on the job.
- Business interruption: Provides you with revenue if your business is forced to close temporarily.
Depending on your operations, some coverage may be required while others are optional. Either way, bundling policies can save you money and offer you financial protection.
How Insurance Needs Evolve
It's important to realize that the needs of your business will evolve over time. As such, you need to update your insurance policies to meet the needs of your business. For example, if you increase your operations and you have more inventory on-premises, the minimum levels of coverage for property insurance should increase, too.
Our independent agents can help you update your policies on an annual basis, so you have the coverage that you need. This way, you have the coverage necessary when you file a claim. Otherwise, one accident could be enough to bankrupt your operations – and our goal is to prevent that from happening.
Shopping for commercial insurance doesn't have to be complicated. Call us at Massabni Insurance & Financial, Inc. to explore coverage for your business today.

What a difference a trade deadline makes.
The vibes are immaculate once more as the Dallas Mavericks (30-23) prepare to host the lowly Washington Wizards (9-43) at the American Airlines Center Monday on the second of a four-game homestand.
A win would extend the Mavericks' current streak to five games with a home game against the San Antonio Spurs waiting on the horizon. The Mavs' dispensed with the Wizards 130-117 on Nov. 14 in the two teams' only other meeting this season behind 31 points from Tim Hardaway Jr. and 26 and 10 assists from Luka Dončić.
And even though the Mavs still aren't restored to 100% full health just yet, they'll have much more ammo at their disposal against the Wizards the second time around than they did in the first. First and foremost, Kyrie Irving (and Dončić and Maxi Kleber) are all listed as probable on the injury report. Trade deadline newcomers Daniel Gafford and P.J. Washington proved to be immediate plug-and-play weapons in their first game with the Mavericks as well.
Dereck Lively II (broken nose) and Dante Exum (knee bursitis) are still out for the game against Washington. This is Lively's seventh straight game out and Exum's ninth.
Washington scored 14 points on 6-of-10 shooting and grabbed five rebounds in a nice debut while Gafford really raised some eyebrows in his first game with the team, a massive 146-11 blowout win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. He lived above the rim and looked like he'd been receiving lobs from Dončić for years on his way to 19 points and nine boards on 7-of-11 shooting. The Mavericks turned in one of their most impressive performances on the boards all season in the pair's debut, out-rebounding the Thunder, 54-40.
It may end up being a laugher, but here are three things that make this game worth tuning into anyway.
A way-too-early Gafford Revenge Game
Does the fact that Monday's game is just his second game with the Mavericks make it too early to declare this a Daniel Gafford Revenge Game? We wouldn't mind any manufactured excuse if it gives Gafford the juice like he had in his first game with the Mavericks.
Gafford showed off his great length and athleticism, springy hops, his fighting spirit to get to contested loose balls, body control in a crowded lane and a feathery soft touch inside, honed by four years of attacking the basket with that unique mix of skill and aggression. Gafford's tenacity matched with his cerebral competency is a sweet thing to see in a Dallas big man.
Injuries push newcomers into the spotlight
The Mavs are down Lively and Exum — a post and a wing. Luckily enough, their trade deadline acquisitions were — wouldn't you know it — pretty good finds at both post and wing. Joining the Mavs at this specific time presents them with a unique opportunity to be essential in the lineup right away.
There was by necessity no get-acquainted buffer where Gafford and Washington could be eased into the lineup and get a feel for how the team operates before diving into their role. Their first game was against one of the best teams in the NBA through 52 games, and both would have been playing high-leverage minutes if it came down to it. But it didn't — which turned the newcomers' first game in Dallas into an impromptu celebration of trade deadline bounty.
Gafford and Washington will be in a similar situation until Lively and Exum return — immediately indispensable on a team that can all of a sudden become truly dangerous.
The quest for five straight
Saturday's win against the Thunder gave the Mavs their third four-game win streak of the year. That's right, I'm old enough to remember when the Mavs were a lowly 26-23 and had lost eight of 12 — enough for many fans to activate their panic early warning systems, and for a few unhinged ones to begin to panic outright. Dallas won the first four games of the year, and won four more in a row in early December as Exum began to emerge as an offensive threat.
All it will take to establish a new season-best win streak is to beat one of the worst teams in the league. Only the Detroit Pistons (8-44) have a worse record than Washington going into Monday's slate of NBA games. A win puts them in line for six in a row against the Spurs (10-43), who are just a half-game better than the Wizards on the season so far, on Wednesday.
The Mavs have been much tidier this season about putting away teams they're clearly better than, but that doesn't mean they don't still share some DNA with the team that went 21-25 against losing teams last season. You can't overlook a team that has players like Kyle Kuzma (21.8 points per game, 6.3 rebounds) and Jordan Poole (15.8 points, 3.7 assists), who can fill it up under the right circumstances. If the Mavs are locked in, this game represents a great opportunity to get Dončić and Irving a little rest toward the end of the evening.
How to watch
Tipoff between the Wizards and the Mavs at American Airlines Center is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. You can tune in on Bally Sports Southwest.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 4 —Umno information chief Isham Jalil, today called on the new government to probe how former prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin's government had spent the RM600 billion in Covid-19 stimulus unveiled during Perikatan Nasional's (PN) short rule.
Calls for an official investigation into the stimulus spending have mounted following suspicions around PN's well-funded campaign in the lead up to the 15th general election. Muhyiddin's Parti Bersatu Pribumi Malaysia is the lead party in PN.
Isham who is also an Umno supreme council member suggested that a royal commission of inquiry be established.
"We saw that they (PN) spent a lot of money on GE15. Therefore, people want to know the source of all that money," he was quoted saying by news portal Free Malaysia Today (FMT).
"Was the money from the taxpayers' RM600 billion? This should not be happening."
Muhyiddin took office right at the onset of a devastating Covid-19 pandemic that was estimated to have cost up to RM2.4 billion for each day of lockdown.
Throughout his short stint as the country's eighth prime minister, he unveiled several stimulus packages worth RM340 billion alongside other recovery programmes under a RM322.5 billion federal spending plan for 2021.
The stimulus packages were distributed amid controversy. Muhyiddin was able to secure an Emergency declaration from the King that enabled him to suspend Parliament and bypass scrutiny. His critics said the expenditures should have been tabled and debated first before being distributed.
Isham said a royal inquiry is the only platform with the capacity to conduct a thorough auditing of the expenditures.
PN, a bloc comprising Bersatu, PAS and Gerakan, mounted a surprise electoral bid to win the second highest number of seats after Pakatan Harapan, 73 in total. The latter won 82 seats.

Angie Porter
Delores Porter will NOT disappoint!!!!!
Delores is wonderful —five star cut and style! Her gifts at hair color are the best in Memphis!!
Becky Webb Wilson
Delores keeps up with new styles and products. I've come to her for 30 years and think she updates my look as styles change. Great with color.
It has been several yea since I have had a decent haircut. I am SO GLAD to have found Delores. She identified that my shoulder length curly hair needed an oval style cut. This has become the best hair cut I have ever had while keeping longer hair. The next visit she worked on my color which was also in sad shape after a few years of self-color. Delores did a beautiful base and then a weave of highlights. I was thrilled but the best part of it all was the comments I received from friends and family over the next few weeks. At that point I KNEW I had a great new stylist. It's clear that she stays current on trends, products and new things happening in hair care. She is something else!
Debby Robinson
After chemo treatment Deloris helped shape my new image so that as my hair grew back out it still had enough style I could feel confident out and about.
Jennifer Williams
Deloris has cared for my hair in all styles and colors. From waste length to bob, black, red to blonde. She's the best colorist in Memphis and her style knowledge is unbelievable. Even a beehive for me for a fashion show once! She's constantly on her game attending international hair shows from New York to Nashville. Can't recommend her enough!
Angie Porter
This lady is phenomenal... You will be more than delighted with your results... never disappointed every time I see her❤❤❤ Love Love Love!!!!
Gladys Slappey
Delores always does her best to provide you with an excellent experience. She is an expert in hair color and I always get compliments on
my color! Her cheerful and caring personality never changes from week to week.
Delores continues to attend classes in hair styling and color. Children, teenagers, and men and women of all ages frequent her chair. She always tries to please!
I've known Delores for 28 years and we've become really good friends. She understands what I like and how I like my hair styled. She knows quite a bit of hair techniques. She goes to hair shows and keeps up with all hair styles that are in trendy. I've always brought a picture with me so if we decide to change things up we talk about it. Seeing is BELEIVING! She is so loyal and a beautiful lady in and out. LOVE!!
Delores has done my hair for years and years. In fact, I have driven from Nashville for 15 years just for her excellent cuts and now come from Cincinnati for her cuts. She is THE VERY BEST. Known as "I need a Delores haircut" in my family. No one compares! You won't be disappointed !
Absolutely the best! I drive two hours for my appointments. She has taken my hair from blonde to red to brunette while maintaining the health of my hair. Love that she's up to date with new techniques and color trends. And, Delores is just the sweetest! 😊
Delores listens intently to what customers want and always does her best to please. Since she has been my hairstylist, I have received many compliments - especially on the color. She loves what she does and takes pride in being the master that she is.
Madison Smith
What can I say that hasnt already been said about Delores? She is a beautiful women inside and out! She absolutely Loves what she is doing and every client is important! She is my far the BEST in Memphis and everywhere.
Jeanna Bieber
LOVE my color! Great atmosphere!
I have very thin hair that rarely looks good! I was very blessed when Delores styled my hair for an outdoor, humid wedding! I absolutely loved the fluffy look she gave me. I received many compliments and felt very comfortable and looked natural with my style. Thanks for working your magic on me ❤
Lauren Hill
Delores is absolutely amazing! She turned me from a brunette into a redhead in one day! Every time she does my hair it just gets better and better. She's the sweetest. Love you Delores!
Delores is a multi-talented hair stylist. She can create a style that suits your face shape on her own or she will be happy to actually listen to you to achieve the look you would like to have. She is equally accomplished in cutting and color and in knowing what to do to keep your hair healthy. I enjoy watching her enjoying making my hair look its best. She is always positive and uplifting and a true blessing to be around. I look forward to a great experience every week! Delores is so much more than a hair stylist to her clients. She is a special friend.
Delores is delightful! She is well-educated in the latest hair care techniques and hair styles. She will guide you through the best styles and color for your hair type and even has excellent tips on skin care and proper diet and exercise. I thoroughly enjoy sitting and talking with Delores while she is styling my hair. She truly cares about her clients and wants them to enjoy their hair style!
Jason D Williams
Deloris keeps my curls the perfect length. As a entertainer it's important to maintain certain visual qualities....my curls are one of those.

According to Tony Gallagher of The Province, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has changed his stance on expansion. Gallagher wrote that expansion is coming soon and Las Vegas is a "done deal."
Bettman previously bristled at the idea of expansion. Now, it appears that Bettman is fully prepared to take the plunge. It's entirely possible that two new franchises will join the league by 2017. Those two teams would in all likelihood be Las Vegas and Seattle. This May, MGM Resorts and AEG broke ground on a 20,000-seat multi-sport arena, which could be completed by spring 2016.
It would make sense for the league to balance out the Eastern and Western Conferences. Currently, there are 16 teams in the East and 14 in the West. Las Vegas appears to be a lock to be the 15th franchise to enter the NHL. Seattle appears to be a strong contender to become the 16th NHL franchise given the billions of prospective Vancouver-based owner Vince Coleman.
Currently, there aren't any plans for Seattle to build a new arena. Should Coleman get hold of a team, a new Seattle arena would be sprung up quickly. It's possible that a Seattle franchise could use the Key Arena in its early years should a new arena not be ready in time for Seattle's inaugural season. Key Arena holds a capacity of 15,177 for hockey games.
Seattle has become a hotbed for diehard sports fans. The city immediately embraced Major League Soccer's Sounders. Seattle's soccer-loving citizens have broken the MLS attendance record for five consecutive seasons and average a league-best attendance of 44,038.
"There's a lot of interest," Bettman told the Star-Tribune. "We're hearing from multiple groups in Seattle — and in Vegas, in Kansas City and Quebec City. We haven't decided to engage in formal expansion process, but as we always do, we listen to expressions of interest. There may be good reasons to expand, there may not be. It's not something we've seriously considered yet."
In addition to aforementioned markets of Las Vegas, Seattle, Quebec City, Kansas City – Portland, Hamilton and a second Toronto team are possible destinations should the league eventually expand to 36. Quebec's Quebecor Arena will be ready to open as early as October 2015 with a hockey capacity of 18,482.
Bettman better be sure that league and potential new NHL markets are ready for expansion. Could a Las Vegas team maintain consistently high attendance? Sitting in a cold hockey arena probably wouldn't be a top priority on the minds of Vegas tourists. Two Southwest hockey teams, the Arizona Coyotes and Dallas Stars ranked in the bottom five when it came to filling arena capacity last season.
Prior to the 2012-13 lockout, a number of Southern teams failed to turn profits and were struggling to cope financially. This was very much due to Bettman's insistence that the league should expand to Southern and Western markets that weren't very familiar with hockey.
The NHL has been through far too many lockouts, and has finally found an era of stability following the 2012-13 lockout.
The current NHL enjoys a strong level of competitive balance. There were only five teams under .500 last season. Even the league's poorest performing franchises like the Buffalo Sabres and Edmonton Oilers aren't that far from being competitive. The New York Islanders only finished below .500 because superstar captain John Tavares missed 23 games.
Over-expansion would cause a dilution of talent. Between 1998 and 2000, the league saw four new franchises pop up in Nashville, Atlanta, Columbus and Minnesota. Remember how terrible the early Thrashers were? Do we really want to see multiple 14-to-20 win teams getting pounded on a nightly basis?
The possibility of four new teams joining the league would damage the rosters of the current 30 NHL clubs through frequent expansions drafting.
Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews also brought up a strong point in June about the possible negative effects of a Las Vegas team entering the league.
In June, Toews told Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune: "I'd have a tough time believing any team would have a good road record coming into Las Vegas."
Toews is absolutely right. A Las Vegas team would have quite a home-ice advantage given the likelihood that visiting teams might enjoy a little too much of what Vegas has to offer before taking the ice.
No matter what Toews thinks, the NHL is coming to Las Vegas. It's going to be a brave new world.

Public, Intentional & Explicit (PIE) affirmation & celebration of all people
It is time for Pride in Kamloops!
And Kamloops United Church will be there!Kamloops Pride Week is Monday, August 21 – Sunday, August 27. There will be events every day but on Sunday, August 27, Kamloops United Church will be participating in the annual parade that morning, and hosting a booth in the afternoon at the Festival in Riverside Park.
Kamloops United Church is a Two Spirit and LGBTQIA+ Affirming community of faith and the Pride Parade and festival in the park are extremely important opportunities for KUC to be Public, Intentional and Explicit in our Affirmation and Celebration of all people and all orientations and gender identities. Recently there has been an uptick in hateful speech and actions towards the Queer community and it feels like in 2023, it is even more important for Affirming churches and people to show up and to catch some stones.Please plan to walk with KUC on Sunday, August 27
The parade begins at 11 am and disperses at Sixth Avenue. Watch for additional details about where and when our KUC group of marchers will gather prior to the parade. (Previously parade mustering has been on St. Paul Street west of Third Ave.) This invitation and appeal is for everyone, all ages, the more the better! It's fun and means so much to the community! If you can volunteer at our booth in the park, please let the KUC office know. (This is a great opportunity for folks who want to participate but are unable to do the walking.)

Inconvenience in reading. Yes, it is really convenient to carry e-books in your bag, but reading is not. More precisely, it is completely inconvenient. Many people get tired of their eyes even when reading from expensive gadgets. The fact is that when reading text from a bright screen, the eyes strain. When reading paper books, this does not happen.

The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted renewed debate over the architecture of Europe's Economic and Monetary Union. Marco Dani, Dario Guarascio, Joana Mendes, Agustin José Menéndez, Harm Schepel and Mike Wilkinson respond to a recent proposal to overhaul the EU's current fiscal framework. They argue that while the EU's fiscal rules should undoubtedly be reformed, a more radical solution is required that puts democratic politics at the heart of the EU's fiscal governance.

Though the lifesaving COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be safe and effective at minimizing the spread of the virus that's killed more than 800 thousand Americans, conspiracy theories and skepticism regarding them have gripped conservative voters across the United States.
Far-right lawmakers like Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin have repeatedly used their platforms to promote the false idea that the vaccines are dangerous or an exercise in government control. Republican governors like Ron DeSantis of Florida and Greg Abbott of Texas have banned private businesses from verifying vaccinations at their establishments. A recent Kaiser Family Foundation poll found that unvaccinated people are disproportionately Republican.
Though he's done little to directly refute right-wing vaccine skepticism, former President Donald Trump has consistently said the vaccines are safe and effective. In a recent appearance with former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly, Trump confirmed to the audience that he had indeed received his booster, despite dismissing the necessary shot as a "money-making operation" this past summer.
Shockingly enough, Trump's supporters in the audience proceeded to boo him, and a number of his supporters online concurred in their dismay at Trump's comments.
Now, far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is railing against Trump for endorsing the booster shots, claiming Trump was allied with the "new world order."
Watch below.
Alex Jones is flipping out after Trump said he got the booster: "Hell, we're fighting Bill Gates and Fauci and Biden and the New World Order and Psaki and the Davos Group .. and now we've got Trump on their team!" pic.twitter.com/fyEfx1OcFp

We wonder how much Sonu Nigam will reveal about the 'music mafia' in Bollywood and his equation with a powerful political family.
Sonu Nigam
The latest to join the growing list of celebrities penning their memoirs is Sonu Nigam. The singer will tell the story of his "tedious, scandalous, emotional and spiritual life." The book, which will be published by Bloomsbury India, is slated to release later this year. Nigam admits that it's a "tough task" to decide what to write. Wonder how much he will reveal about the 'music mafia' in Bollywood and his equation with a powerful political family.
Sonu Nigam, who made his singing debut in 1992 with the song "O Aasman Wale" from the film "Aaja Meri Jaan", is regarded as one of the most versatile voices in the Indian film industry. In his almost three-decade-long career in films, he has tracks including "Achcha Sila Diya Tune Mere Pyar Ka", "Ye Dil Deewana", "Kal Ho Na Ho", "Saathiya", "Abhi Mujh Mein Kahin", to his credit. The singer said it is a "tough task" to decide how much would one, or should one, reveal of one's life in their memoir.
"I remember a quote by George Bernard Shaw that I read in my English book in 9th Standard that said, 'All autobiographies are lies'. I strangely agreed with the reasoning behind it elaborated in that lesson. I never knew then though that there ever would come a time in my life when I would be asked to write mine… It's exciting too, considering one actually gets to revisit the lanes and bylanes of ever-so-personal, undisclosed details of one's glorious life, and grin furtively at some of the most unfathomable experiences one is fated to go through," Nigam said in a statement.
The National Award winner, who has also sung songs in Bengali, Kannada, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, and Marathi, hopes his courage will help him overcome the nervousness of penning down his autobiography. "Uncountable dynamics through a tedious, scandalous, emotional and spiritual life, need to be assessed and poured in the form of words. But I, on second thoughts, am sure my guts and courage will sail me through," he added.

Clyde Johnson
Dec 28, 1951 - Oct 31, 2023
Locust Grove, VA
Obituary Source:https://www.johnsonfuneralhomeandcrematory.com/obituaries/Clyde-Junior-Johnson?obId=29744162#/obituaryInfo
Tamra Shay Stephenson
Apr 15, 1966 - Feb 16, 2024
Locust Grove, VA
Tamra Shay Stephenson passed away on February 16, 2024 at her home in Locust Grove, Virginia at the age of 57 after a long battle with cancer. She was born on April 15, 1966 in Bluefield, WV to Elaine Crews Harper and Richard Randolph Caldwell.Tamra was truly one of the sweetest and kindest women you could possibly imagine. Everywhere she lived and worked, she was loved by everyone who knew her. She was a proud mother to Brianna Carr, Bethany Banks, Zachary Wine, and step-daughter Kayla Gault. Tamra was also a devoted grandmother known as "Peeka" to six granddaughters: Chloe, Riley, Everly, Aubrey, Mila and Lyra. She never got to meet her grandson who is due in May, but she is surely holding her angel grandbabies, Gracie and Rowan, right now.Tamra grew up in Sebring, FL and graduated from Sebring High School in 1984. She still has countless friends from those days and remained actively in contact through social media. In 1988, she moved to Salem, VA with her husband Keith Wine where they raised their family. She went to nursing school to got her LPN and then worked for many years as a Clinical Manager at Valley Oral Surgery in Roanoke. She was not only an excellent worker and valued employee, but she developed many close friendships that continued for the rest of her life.In 2011, Tamra was diagnosed with lobular breast cancer and underwent treatments to overcome the disease. This resulted in a dramatic change in her hairstyle, but she remained just as beautiful as ever and continued to make the most of every day that she had been blessed with. In 2014, she married her current husband John Stephenson and moved to Austin, Texas, where she began working for Texan Allergy/Aspire. She spent 9 wonderful years working with people she loved and who loved her. She was a highly respected employee and coworker, and when she moved to Seattle in 2018, they made her the first remote employee from her department.

Hiking at South Fork
South Fork State Park is one of Florida's smaller parks, but that doesn't mean that it has any less value. Most sought out for its undeveloped landscape, South Fork is a lush wonderland that allows visitors to get a taste of …the Real Florida.
