Donating blood, a family tradition

There’s an old country western song by Hank Williams, Jr. about family traditions. Although Hank’s unfortunately were drinking and rolling smokes, most family traditions are cherished and meaningful gestures passed down from one generation to the next.
 Donors often cite their reason for giving blood is because a family member did. I guess one could say giving is in their blood. At Weiser’s quarterly blood drive held on May 2 by the American Red Cross, there were a few examples of this great family tradition.

I sincerely hope that all of you mothers had a great Mother’s Day last Sunday! Cathy and I went to dinner on Friday night and had a get-together with family, on Saturday.  
 On Sunday, we went for a drive to find a “road” we had not been on before. We found just such a road heading up Indianhead. We were able to get about halfway up the hill before coming to something of a fence and a no trespassing sign. It was just as well to stop there as it looked like the “road” deteriorate beyond the fence.
