5 Quick Tips

In no particular order...

  1. Veterans can now get a free lifetime National Parks Permit.  I think these used to cost around $80 so this is a great savings!
  2. Speaking of veterans, the Quilts of Valor Foundation makes hand-sewn quilts for veterans.  I believe anyone can nominate a vet to receive a quilt.  The photo above is of hubby receiving his quilt this morning by these very sweet ladies who do the quilting for this program in our area.
  3. Did you know that you can go on Amazon.com and in the search bar type in free e-books by and then the author's name and come up with a list of free e-books you can download from your favorite author?  You don't need to be a Prime member to do this either. 
  4. How cool is this?  Simply go to this website and it will list thousands of webcams for roads and highways all over the US.  This is a great way to check the road conditions before heading out on your vacation or day trip.
  5. I know the elections are done but for some states like mine, the ballot counting continues.  If you do a mail-in ballot like I do, you can use this website to make sure your ballot has been received and counted.

  1. Nice picture of husband receiving a quilt. Just my luck, my state is not on the site to track ballots. I have my park pass. Good sites, once again.

    1. I love reading your site as well but lately I haven't been able to comment on it? I click in the comment area and nothing happens (no highlighted area to comment or anything). Glad you got back home safe!

    1. It's a wonderful program I had never heard of until a friend nominated hubby for the quilt. Very nice people to do this!
