38 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2021 The Book Club selection for July 13 are two Nora Ephron books: I Feel Bad About My Neck and I Remember Nothing. Here is a brief description of I Feel Bad About My Neck from Amazon.com: "With her disarming, intimate, completely accessible voice and dry sense of humor, Nora Ephron shares with us her ups and downs in I Feel Bad About My Neck, a candid, hilarious look at women who are getting older and dealing with the tribulations of maintenance, menopause, empty nests, and life itself. Ephron chronicles her life as an obsessed cook, passionate city dweller, and hapless parent. But mostly she speaks frankly and uproariously about life as a woman of a certain age." And here is a brief description of I Remember Nothing from Amazon. com: "Nora Ephron returns with her first book since the astounding success of I Feel Bad About My Neck, taking a cool, hard, hilarious look at the past, the present, and the future, bemoaning the vicissitudes of modern life, and recalling with her signature clarity and wisdom everything she hasn't (yet) forgotten." Our meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 9:30 am in the RCN room #3. Someone volunteers to lead the discussion about the book we have chosen for the month. If you are attending, please check at the front desk to confirm the location.

We needed every American and all of them joined the fight. It wasn't their first fight. In the Revolutionary war, Molly Pitcher had loaded and fired a cannon and Crispus Attucks who descended from an African slave and a Native Indian was the first casualty of the Boston Massacre. For many in 1941, it was a two-front war: abroad, against a common enemy, and home, against prejudice. When the common enemy was defeated, they came home battle hardened and continued their second fight. The first flags in July at Four Seasons Veterans Park describe some of these heroes who proved their courage during World War II. The second monthly flags describe the biggest killer of World War I — the Spanish Flu and its similarities from 100 years ago in surviving a pandemic. ~ Len Tavernetti, ltavernetti@hotmail. com 2021 First Call This is an open invitation to all Four Seasons veterans, friends, and family of veterans, and those who wish to support veteran's activities. Please join us at The Lodge on July 21 at 11 am. After brief introductions, we will address several organizational concerns. The most important is to fill two key positions. The first position is the monthly meeting coordinator. This trooper secures our monthly meeting space and develops the meeting's agenda. The second position is that of the 2021 Veterans Day Event coordinator. Both of these positions are in need of those with a passion to lead us through the rest of 2021. After these critical positions have been filled, we will open the discussion for any new ideas or initiatives which our members would like to present. Once we have completed our organizational task, the balance of the meeting will be devoted to reconnecting with one another and getting to know all folks new to the Veterans Group. As always, come early to grab yourself a cup of coffee or more from the Kopper Kettle and find a comfortable seat. See you soon! ~ Lawrence Moreland, US Army Retired, ldmoreland76@gmail. com
