Senior Center Book Group

Did you know that Hoover's Senior Center has a book group? Each month the members get together to discuss a book of the group's choosing. May's selection is The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson and June's discussion is on Jeffrey Zaslow's The Girls from Ames.

If you are a member of the Senior Center, we would love for you to come and join us for a lively book discussion on the second morning of each month at 9:30 a.m. And if you are not a senior, but know someone who is, pass this along!

The Farmer and the Horse

First it was organic foods, then locally produced, in recent years the move towards using animal power in lieu of diesel for farm production has increased substantially.

Normally relegated to pioneer reenactments, animal power is making news (On Small Farms, Hoof Power Returns), even though they are generally seen as only feasible for small farms.

Check out the documentary, The Farmer and the Horse, for the ups and downs of using animal power.
