The Annual Meeting of the Elizabethtown-White Lake Chamber of Commerce was well attended last night at Lu Mil Vineyard. More later.
Summer arrived Monday. Highs temps in the area are expected to range from low to mid 90s over the next couple of days.
5 Cardinal Rules of Life courtesy of John Tesh:
1) Make peace with your past…so it won’t disturb your present
2) What other people think of you is none of your business
3) Time heals almost everything…Give it time
4) No one is in charge of your happiness, except you
5) Don’t compare your life to others and don’t judge them, you have no idea what their journey is all about.
Thanks to all for the Honorary Lifetime Chamber Member Award from the Chamber of Commerce presented last night at their Annual Meeting. Other winners are listed in news accounts on BladenOnline.com.

Civic education and civic responsibility should be taught in elementary school. Donna Brazile
To me history ought to be a source of pleasure. It isn’t just part of our civic responsibility. To me it’s an enlargement of the experience of being alive, just the way literature or art of music is. David McCullough
A constitutional democracy is in serious trouble if its citizenry does not have a certain degree of education and civic virtue. Phillip E. Johnson
