Dear Friend:
"How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." Anne Frank (June 12, 1929-1945)

| | Hello from Maquoketa, Iowa, and welcome to the third issue of the new
BIG WEEKLY BLEND Variety Magazine! Covering Big Blend’s most recent articles and podcasts, it’s also a companion publication to our Big Weekly Blend Podcast. From Superman and monkeys to bourbon and beer, cake, kitchen klutzes, and kisses, this week’s podcast celebrates the national holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries of the week with a big music playlist, and links to themed recipes, articles, and podcasts.
This issue gets us ready for summer entertaining with two features covering barbecuing, grilling, and wine. When it comes to planning your next southwest travel adventures, check out the destination stories covering sunny and vibrant Palm Springs, remote and enchanting New Mexico, and the rejuvenating “magic water” of Durango Hot Springs, Colorado. Heading east, there’s brewery fun and outdoor adventures to be had in Asheville, along with the winter sports mecca of Lake Placid (it’s not too early to plan your winter ski trip)!
Lastly, with the recent anniversary of the Normandy Landings of WWII, take a listen to the podcast with author Mike Guardia who shares two incredible hero stories.
