Get your SCV ‘boo’ on in October
My favorite month of the year is nearly here! I love October. It means that summer is almost over in the Santa Clarita Valley. I do believe that August, September and October are the hottest months of the year in the SCV. Come Nov. 1, we'll finally cool down. So Oct. 1 means only 31 more days of wretched heat, I hope! However, October has many other charms, including the annual "spookfests' that inhabit the historic SCV.

John Rosemond: Living with Children
Someone recently told me she wanted her children to "think for themselves." Not me, I said. If I was still in my active parenting years, I would most definitely want my children to think like I do. That would be, in fact, my primary purpose. I would want them to accept that my values are the right values to hold and I'd want them to eventually make every effort to pass those values on to ...
