VETERANS DAY • NOVEMBER 11TH Once referred to as Armistice Day, Veterans Day is a time to recognize all the men and women who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces during wartime and peacetime. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, there are over 21.8 million veterans in the United States, many of whom served in wars, like the Korean Conflict, and the Persian Gulf War. On November 11th, pay tribute to our veterans and thank them for the sacrifice they have made to preserve our freedom and protect our country. Army Sgt. USAR Ronald M. Bennett Vietnam 1966 - 1968

Fall Home I 2021
Preparing a property for winter involves putting away lawn furniture, raking leaves and removing any annual plants that have shriveled up and spent the last of their energy. It can be tempting to want to clean up completely and leave a blank slate in the yard. But by doing so, you may be robbing wildlife of the resources they need to overwinter.
spring, as shrubs can be dense areas to hide for both insects and animals. • Consider planting animal food sources prior to winter. Plants like elderberry, holly, mulberry, sumac, and crabapple will grow in colder months and animals can enjoy them as a vital food staple.
The nature and conservation resource In Habitat says plants and animals depend on one another to survive. During the winter, animals may struggle to find adequate shelter and food, especially when there is a lack of sufficient plant matter available. In turn, these animals may actually take up home in people’s residences, turning into pests in the process. Bats, field mice and even opossums and raccoons may move indoors into attics or basements, leaving behind waste and damage if they can’t find adequate shelter outdoors.
• Don’t forget water sources. Provide access to fresh water and replace as needed if the water freezes. For homeowners with fish ponds in their backyards, use a hot pot to melt a hole in the top of the pond and allow gases that have accumulated underneath to escape. This allows oxygen to reach fish and frogs in the pond.
Homeowners concerned about potential pest infestations can take steps to ensure animals have places to bed down and escape the cold in their yards this winter. These tips can help local wildlife when the temperatures dip.
Animals and insects need some extra help staying comfortable when cool temperatures arrive. Leaving some clean-up tasks for the spring ensures that there are plenty of backyard habitats available to local wildlife.
• Leave bird, squirrel or bat houses in the yard. This is a fun and crafty project that can ward off winter boredom while also providing a safe place for local wildlife to shelter in winter.
• Leave parts of the yard wild. Animals can make a nest in leaves or piles of brushwood. Just make sure piles left out are away from the home so curious critters don’t try to get inside. Leave the task of tidying up shrubs and garden borders until

How to Pick Paint for Home Interiors COMMUNITY SHOPPERS GUIDE...OTSEGO, MI 49078....Fall Home Section...October 16, 2021 ....Phone 694-9431
Fall Home I 2021
Many components combine to define a home’s interior. Some homeowners may be partial to certain styles, such as ultra modern or farmhouse, while others may opt for a more traditional look that cannot necessarily be categorized as one style or another. Though many homeowners may spend considerable time and devote a lot of energy to making their home embody a certain style, those who aren’t willing to commit to a particular look can lean on one component to make a stylish statement all their own: paint.
Color can be a part of every homeowner’s design arsenal. Bold colors can be used to create a stunning accent wall, while homes with open concepts often utilize color to define rooms. Homeowners who want to revitalize their home interiors can do so with paint, and this approach doesn’t require homeowners to commit to a whole new design style.
Though paint may seem simple to novices, homeowners who have painted home interiors in the past recognize how

• Take stock, and photographs, of your current furnishings. Many interior designers rely on a simple technique when recommending color schemes to their clients. Choose a standout color from existing furnishings, such as the dominant color from a patterned decorative pillow or piece of furniture, and then look for the same shade to paint the walls. A photograph of the item can be handy when visiting the paint store.

homeowners who want to spark debate around their dinner tables.
• Lighten colors as you go up. The home renovation and design experts at HGTV recommend picking darker color values for the floor, medium color values for the walls and light values for the ceiling. This approach mimics the look of the great outdoors, where the ground tends to be darker than the trees, and the trees are darker than the blue sky.
• Give personal preference its place at the table. Though interior designers may have years of experience picking paint colors for a home and researchers may have determined how certain colors can be utilized to create a desired ambiance in a given room, ultimately homeowners are the ones who will be living in the home. So it’s important that homeowners pick colors they like for their home interiors.
• Utilize paint to create the vibe you want. The home renovation experts at This Old House note that colors evoke an emotional response. Cool colors like blue and green give off a relaxing vibe, which makes them ideal for bedrooms and bathrooms.

Design Ideas to Give Your Home a Farmhouse Feel
Fall Home I 2021
Farmhouse style homes are having a moment. A 2020 survey from Homes.com asked more than 5,000 adults across the United States about their favorite house style from a list that included bohemian craftsman, mid-century modern ranch, French chateau, and Tudor, among others. Modern farmhouse was the runaway winner, as participants in 42 of the 50 states indicated this simple, cozy style was their favorite.
Home renovation projects can help homeowners put their own unique stamp on their homes, and such projects can be both aesthetic and functional in nature. The following are some farmhouse design elements homeowners can consider as they look to transform their home interiors with this popular style in mind.
• Exposed beams: Exposed beams instantly evoke images of a farmhouse. The home improvement experts at BobVila.com note that this rustic renovation project can utilize real wood or faux beams that look like the real thing. Decorative beams that have nothing to do with a home’s structural integrity can be installed by skilled do-ityourselfers. However, even faux beams are
heavy, and BobVila.com recommends homeowners have an engineer assess their existing structure prior to installation. • Distressed wood finishes: Distressing is designed to make something look less than perfect. Distressed wood finishes can be found throughout many farmhouse style homes. Furniture and picture frames can provide the distressed look farmhouse fans are looking for. This is a relatively inexpensive project that many homeowners can tackle on their own after watching some online tutorials that recommend the right tools and techniques to get the job done right. • Kitchen sink: Many components combine to create a truly classic farmhouse kitchen. But perhaps no component is more essential than the classic farmhouse sink. The renovation experts at HGTV note that a classic farmhouse sink features a deep, wide basin. Farmhouse sinks are large enough to handle all the dishes that come after a big family meal. Old-fashioned porcelain sinks are worth consideration by homeowners who want their kitchen sinks to evoke a traditional farmhouse feel.
“Modern farmhouse was the runaway winner, as participants in 42 of the 50 states indicated this simple, cozy style was their favorite.” • Countertops: HGTV recommends butcher block countertops for homeowners who favor European farmhouse style. Homeowners overhauling their kitchens to create a farmhouse feel should consider installing a large island with a walnut butcher block
countertop for an authentic farmhouse feel. Farmhouse style homes are wildly popular. Some simple renovations can help homeowners with a fondness for farmhouse style bring this classic look into their homes.

Why Excavation is Best Left to The Professionals
Fall Home I 2021
during the excavation process.
Can do-it-yourselfers excavate?
When shopping for a home, buyers often try to envision themselves living in a given property. Images of family gatherings and holidays may instantly come to mind, but prospective homeowners also may begin to envision changes they would make to a property if they were eventually to call it home.
Changing an existing structure or building an entirely new home on an empty plot of land can be exciting. Such changes typically require excavation, which is a complicated process that may be necessary for projects big or small. What is excavation?
Excavation is the process of extracting material from the ground by digging. Earth, rock and other materials may be moved

Skilled DIYers who have participated in excavation projects in the past may be able to handle a project on their own. However, it’s important that homeowners recognize that excavation is about more than just digging in the ground. It’s a complicated process that requires the use of specialized tools and equipment. In addition, a strong understanding of the land that will be excavated is required for the project to be safe and go smoothly. Why hire an excavation professional?
Even the most skilled DIYer might be better off hiring an excavation professional than going it alone. That’s true for a number of reasons.
• Liability: Homeowners who hire a fully licensed and insured professional excavation firm can rest easy knowing that

they will not be responsible for any damages or injuries that may occur during the project.
• Permits/requirements: A professional excavation firm typically files all the necessary paperwork for work permits or can advise which permits homeowners will need to go forward with the project. In addition, professionals will know the local laws regarding building and excavation. For example, homeowners may be unfamiliar with the concept of lateral support, which refers to landowners’ right to have their land physically supported in its natural state by adjoining land and underground structures. This is an important concept to understand during an excavation project, and professionals can advise homeowners if a project they want to undertake will violate lateral support laws.
Skilled DIYers can tackle many home improvement projects on their own. However, the complex nature of excavation makes these types of projects the kind that are best left to skilled professionals.
• Experience: Perhaps the best reason to work with excavation professionals is their experience. A lack of excavation experience can result in damage to a homeowner’s property and surrounding properties, which can prove costly. DIYers may not know the type of soil they have on their property nor

Tips Before Deciding to do a DIY Demolition
COMMUNITY SHOPPERS GUIDE...OTSEGO, MI 49078....Fall Home Section...October 16, 2021 ....Phone 694-9431
Fall Home I 2021
surprise that so many homeowners volunteer to do demolition on their own. Though it’s possible to do so safely, homeowners can take steps to determine if it’s in their best interest to take on a DIY demolition or leave it to the professionals.
Home improvement projects can range from relatively inexpensive undertakings to complex endeavors that cost homeowners thousands of dollars. In an effort to make expensive projects more affordable, homeowners may look for ways to pitch in, and do-it-yourself demolition is a common way to cut costs.
Due to geographical fluctuations in price as well as the scale of a project, it’s hard to pinpoint just how much homeowners can save by doing demolition work themselves. HomeAdvisor estimates that the average small interior demolition project costs just over $3,000, though more significant demolition projects can cost considerably more than that. Given the cost, it’s no
• Conduct a cost analysis. Demolition projects seem simple, but they often require the use of equipment most homeowners don’t have on hand. Rentals can be considered in such instances, but the cost of renting equipment can reduce the amount of money homeowners are saving by going it alone. For example, homeowners may be able to pull up vinyl or tile flooring on their own, but not all floors are installed the same. Some floors may have been glued more effectively than others, making it hard and/or timeconsuming to pull them up by hand. A walkbehind floor scraper can make it easier to remove such floors, but that equipment must be rented. A cost analysis comparing the contractors’ demolition cost estimate and the cost of DIY, complete with equipment rental projections, can give a
more accurate picture of how much money homeowners will save by going it alone. If the savings of DIY are negligible, homeowners should probably let the contractor handle the demo.
• Speak with your contractor. Prior to saying they’ll do the demo work on their own, homeowners should speak with their contractors to get an accurate idea of what the project will entail. Demolition projects may seem simple enough, but contractors can illustrate the correct way to do things so as to minimize potentially costly damage. Some contractors may offer to help homeowners start the demo project and then leave them to their own devices once they get a knack for what to do. Once homeowners see what it will take, they can then decide if DIY is best for them.
DIY demolition can save homeowners a lot of money. But such projects are not necessarily as simple as they seem. Homeowners should take steps to see exactly what they’re getting into before they volunteer to take on demo duty.
• Enlist help. No DIY demo should ever be done alone. The risk for accident and injury is simply too great for homeowners to go it alone. Homeowners who can’t enlist some volunteers to pitch in should leave the job to the professionals.

He is a young adult dog, and he weighs just over 50 pounds. Bandit is a sweetheart and all hound dog! He likes to follow his nose and go exploring - he would definitely make a good hiking buddy (on a leash). Bandit loves to lean into you and get loved up. He especially enjoys getting his back scratched and his belly rubbed! Bandit would be a great addition to a home with another friendly dog. At this time, he is very likely to chase any cats in the home and most cats would not appreciate his attention; therefore a cat free home would probably be best. It is recommended that any children in his forever home be 10 years old and up. With a commitment to obedience training, he could join a home with younger children. If you would like to meet Bandit - be prepared for a fun time! Please fill out an adoption application at wishbonepetrescue.org. Upon approval of the application, an appointment at the Allegan County Animal Shelter will be set up for you to come in and meet Bandit.

“GOD LOVES YOU!”
By Rev. Dan Minor - revdminor1945@gmail.com _____________________________________
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” - John 3:16 No. 1 in Series: “SEVEN TIMELESS TRUTHS” It is the central truth of the Christian faith: God loves you! The ultimate sign of God’s love is the death of His Son, Jesus Christ, on a cross for our sins (John 15:13). So many in our society are love-starved. Feeling the absence of love can lead to selfdestructive behaviors as well hurting others. Conversely, persons who feel loved are more likely to love others. During His earthly ministry, the reason so many loved Jesus is simply because Jesus loved them. Here are some examples: • Children were ignored by society but loved by Jesus (Matthew l9:14). • Women were regarded as nobodies in society, but Jesus valued them (John 4:4-26). • Jesus loved sinners (Romans 5:8).
The love of Jesus is inclusive, unconditional, unmerited, unlimited, healing, saving, uniting, sacrificial, life-changing, eternal and sometimes beyond human explanation. The question: This being true, why are not more people experiencing God’s love? There may be any number of psychological reasons such as family upbringing, poor role models, negative environment, etc. In the spiritual realm, barriers to accepting God’s love are always on the human side. Here are just a few common examples with a Biblical response.
“I DO NOT FEEL WORTHY OF GOD’S LOVE” None of us are worthy, but all of us are worthwhile. The Bible says we were created the crown of creation (Psalm 8:4-5). Jesus died for us (John 3:16), therefore we are persons of worth.
“I CANNOT GET OVER MY GUILT FOR PAST SINS” I John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness” “I AM AFRAID I CANNOT LIVE UP TO THE DEMANDS OF GOD’S LOVE” “God is love” (I John 4:8). “Perfect love drives out fear” (I John 4:18)
“I FEEL THAT I AM NOT GOOD ENOUGH” Romans 8:1 “There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” When feeling lonely, afraid, confused or down, remember GOD LOVES YOU!.
Prayer: Thank you God for your great love. Help us to receive Your love and pass it on to other. In Your strong name. Amen.
