* Family reunions are a fun and worthwhile investment. Being together with many generations is a wonderful experience. Often, these gatherings are highly scheduled, but remember to set aside time -- and a designated place -- to simply sit and talk. Here are some other great family reunion tips from our readers. -- JoAnn

* T-shirts are fun for reunion memorabilia, but we also did water bottle coozies this year, and they were a big hit. You can write your name in permanent marker on one side, and then you can keep track of your bottle. -B.F. in Georgia

* We find that when planning our reunion, the young adults really like theme parties, so we always have a mixer theme night to start. We had a scavenger hunt for the children where we collected clues about some of our more senior family members. To figure out who it was, the kids would listen to them tell stories and ask questions. What a great time for all! -- T.E.

* Our family has several members with allergy restrictions and alternative food requirements. I made sure to make a list, which I made copies of and passed along to all our planned food venues. This way, there was advance notice for those who needed gluten-free and vegetarian options. -- M.S. in Florida

A healthy lawn thrives with the right amount of water and nutrients. Lawn care is a yearlong process. Even when the sun isn’t very strong and the temperatures are cold, a lawn still needs water. That water requirement multiplies when higher temperatures lead to increased evaporation.

The experts at LawnLove.com, a lawn care and landscaping resource, say grass needs between 1 and 2 inches of water a week. Many times precipitation will take care of all of a lawn’s water needs. But in times of drought or infrequent rain, it’s up to homeowners to provide the water a lawn requires.

If homeowners ask a dozen lawn experts what they recommend in terms of watering, they’re likely to offer 12 different answers. The type of soil and grass affects how frequently a lawn needs to be watered. According to the lawn care company Organo Lawn, it’s better to do a deep watering two or three times a week to promote strong grass roots and maintain a healthy microbial composition in soil than to water the lawn daily, which leads to shallow roots and can wash away nutrients. But it is important for homeowners to recognize when their lawns are not getting ample water. Here are some signs a lawn needs a drink.

• Visible footprints: Elasticity of the grass blades decreases when the lawn is not getting enough water. If you walk on the lawn and footprints do not bounce back in a short amount of time, you likely need to water.

• Gaps between lawn and sidewalk: Lawn Pride says that the soil can shrink in drought conditions. This may be visible where the lawn abuts a driveway, sidewalk or even planting beds. If you walk along the perimeter of a lawn and notice a gap between the grass and hardscape, it is time to water.

• Clumps of grass: It is a sign of drought stress when grass grows in clumps rather than uniformly across a lawn.

• Presence of dollar spot fungus: Grass can become susceptible to this fungus, which also is called ascochyta leaf blight. It only develops in lawns with shallow grass roots caused by improper lawn watering. It’s common in parts of Colorado and elsewhere and is noticeable when damage to the turf begins in the middle of the grass foliage.

• Slow growth: A lawn that doesn’t seem to be growing well, or doesn’t need to be mowed as frequently, likely isn’t getting enough water. Adequate watering can help a lawn develop strong roots and maintain grass health. Homeowners who have questions about their lawns and watering can consult with a landscaper or a lawn care service.

Explaining the concept of “good debt”

Debt is a four-letter word, and in many instances, a high amount of debt is perilous. However, debt isn’t always a black mark on individuals’ financial résumés.

Consumers may have heard the term “good debt” at some point and wondered just why owing money to certain creditors is more desirable than owing to others. The debt help experts at Debt.org note that there’s a simple explanation for this distinction. Debt that increases an individual’s net worth or future value is considered “good debt,” while debts that do not positively affect net worth are considered “bad debt.”

So which types of debt qualify as good debt? The following are three types of debts that generally qualify as good debt.

1. Student loan debt: Student loan debt can be tricky, but it’s generally considered good debt. That’s because education has long been linked to a greater earning potential. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that individuals over 25 who were working full-time and only had a high school diploma had a median weekly income of just under $800. Individuals who had a bachelor’s degree had a median weekly income of more than $1,400. However, it’s important that individuals recognize that certain degrees do more for their earning potential than others. Taking on a high amount of student

loan debt to earn a degree in a historically low-earning field could make it harder to make ends meet down the road. That won’t necessarily make the debt “bad” in the eyes of lenders, but it could force borrowers to wonder if they made the right decision.

2. Mortgage debt: Mortgage debt is perhaps the most undeniable source of good debt. Historically, the appreciation value of real estate has made home ownership a worthwhile goal, even if home buyers have to finance their home purchases with bank loans. Perhaps nothing has more successfully illustrated the value of home ownership in recent years more than the skyrocketing value of real estate during the pandemic. The real estate research firm CoreLogic noted that home prices across the United States increased by 18 percent between July 2020 and July 2021. Individuals who already owned their homes, including those who were a long way from paying off their mortgages, saw their equity rise considerably in that time period, even if they continued to make the same monthly payments they’d been making before the pandemic. Though home prices may never again rise that much in a given year, real estate historically has increased in value on a yearly basis. That certainly qualifies mortgage debt as “good debt.”

3. Business loans: A business loan may carry more risk than a mortgage loan, but it still can turn out to be very good debt

if the business ultimately succeeds. However, that’s a big “if.” Data from the BLS indicates that 65 percent of new businesses fail within a decade of opening. Many small business owners use personal guarantees to secure business loans, meaning

the debt is theirs should the business ultimately fail. But owning a successful business can be a great way to build personal wealth, which is why business loans can be considered good debt. MM21C532

earching “Bunker Hill” in the Newspapers

A few weeks ago, I wrote about the Battle of “Bunker” Hill loss petitions I had been cataloging in my files. I’ve also been doing newspaper searches to add more information by date to that folder and I ended up with 27,000 hits to go through. Two weeks later, I’m just under halfway through them all. Amongst the many articles is some really interesting information.

In many of the obituaries, the soldier is mentioned as “one of the last in the redoubt” and some “the last man in the redoubt”. Here’s an obit from Jedediah Amidon from Ashford, Ct. that has some information that can’t be verified but interesting “Capt. Amidon was in bunker hill Battle, and the last man of the American army who left the ground. Not understanding the order to retreat, he found himself surrounded by the British.

Being a stout, athletic man, he warded off the enemy with the but [sic] of his gun while retreating backward, until he had nearly reached the enclosure, when, stumbling against the dead or wounded, he fell, but soon recovering, he threw himself over the board fence,

“BunkerSearchingHill” in the Newspapers

amid the whistling of the balls of the enemy. After lying a few moments to take a breath, the enemy supposing him slain, he sprang upon his feet and ran to the camp, picking up on his was a silver mounted gun, dropped by an officer who was killed in the retreat.” I would

love to have seen the silver-mounted gun he mentions!

The obituary for Rufus Dewey of Westfield, Ma. mentions: “At the battle of Bunker Hill, he maintained the ground near the rail fence, until he had fired 13 of the 17 cartridges he carried into the field.” If this recollection is correct, it could add to the information that many of the cartridge boxes which were being issued held 17 rounds although the specification was for 19. Examples of cartridge boxes with both hole counts survive.

Some of the articles mention horrible

wounds, including this one.

Mr. Ward “was at the battle of Bunker Hill, and one of the last to leave the entrenchments. When loading his piece, a ball struck his elbow and was extracted from the arm pit.” In April 1820, another Bunker Hill veteran had an interesting reminder of the battle: “Mr. Jonathan Knowlton, of Gloucester, has a ball drop from out his back last week that he had received on his retreat from Bunker Hill battle.”

Other soldiers had ammunition fired during the brutal battle in their body for the rest of their lives. Sylvanus Snow passed away at 97 years old and: “He served several campaigns in the French war; and through nearly the whole of thezwar of the Revolution. He was engaged in 14 different battles, in all of which he was but once wounded, and that was at Bunker Hill, and the ball which he then received, has been carried in his body to the grave.”

I still have thousands of newspaper articles to go through and catalog and I’m sure there will be many more interesting reminiscences to share.

BY JENNIFER COATES

By definition, a “pest” is an insect which harms both crops and plants and is an overall nuisance to humans. While a “pest” can also refer to small animals, anyone who lives in New England knows that the worst kinds of problematic “pests” are the mosquitos, ants, fleas, ticks, beetles, gnats, roaches, flies, spiders and fruit flies that live amongst us in this wet and lush region of the country. Pests are a reality that we must simply live with, right?? Wrong.

According to Stephen Gustafson, (also known as the “Bug Buster”), we don’t have to resign ourselves to a life with these pesky creatures at all! Gustafson has a personal vendetta when it comes to controlling troublesome insects. As an avid outdoorsman, he spent a lot of time in nature until a dangerous bite

from a disease-carrying tick (a new species of tick here in Rhode Island) sidelined him several years ago. That experience was a catalyst in his decision to become a pest control technician.

After months of extensive training, Stephen fulfilled that goal. Today, he has earned the moniker “Bug Buster” and licensed pest control expert. But he took this pursuit to a next level when he stepped outside the more commonplace toxic treatments used by larger brands (you know them, they are ones that leave behind signs on your lawn like this one: “chemicals applied, do not walk on this grass”). Instead, he chose to work exclusively with a product line which is non-toxic and environmentally-friendly. The cedar-based solution which Stephen uses is 100% natural. This

That workplace problem still needs your attention before you can finally close the book on it. Meanwhile, a long-anticipated reunion gets closer to becoming a happy reality.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might be demanding more from others than they can give. Best advice: Have a long and frank talk to determine what the facts are. Tensions should abate as the week winds down.
