Brain Freeze
Since July is National Ice Cream month, it is likely we’ll
all partake in consuming one of America’s favorite sweet
treats. However, there’s something to keep in mind. We’ve
all experienced the dreaded “ice cream headache” at some
point in our lives, particularly when we least expect it. We’ll
be enjoying our favorite tasty treat, and then BOOM! A sharp
shooting pain hits us. On the upside, these headaches usually
last only approximately 30 seconds. Curious as to why these
headaches appear out of nowhere? Joseph Hulihan of Temple
University has a solid answer.
“When something cold touches the roof of your mouth
on a hot day, it triggers a cold headache. The cause is a dilation
of blood vessels in the head. The dilation may be caused by a
nerve center located above the roof of your mouth - when this
nerve center gets cold, it seems to overreact and tries to heat
your brain. Therefore, the easy way to avoid brain freeze would
be to keep cold things away from the roof of your mouth!”

Celebrating Our Family
Since I wrote about living at HarborChase another year has come and gone.
What a wonderful year it has been with all the new musical talent and celebrating
more special dates than ever before.
We now attend a movie outside in the community and go to a restaurant to
dine out once a month. All of these events allow us to become better acquainted
with one another.
Looking forward to another year at HarborChase!

Superstitions
Aside...
W
hen determining the day to exchange nuptials, it’s hard to
imagine that too many folks would consider an old superstition. But, when you think about how many people incorporate
tradition into their wedding plans, it makes sense to think that
just as many people might also consider superstition. Dubbed an
Unlucky Month for Weddings, July is one of those months that has
a bit of negativity associated with it. The old superstition includes
lines about July that go something like this: “Married in July, with
flowers ablaze/Bitter-sweet mem’ries in after days.” So what does
this mean, exactly? It has been suggested over time that “Bitter-sweet
mem’ries in after days” makes reference to impending tragedy that
will occur, as opposed to a flourishing love. In addition, a variation of
this wedding day folklore also denies wealth to the couples that wed in
July. Theoretically speaking, fortune most certainly does not shine on those
married in July. However, superstitions aside, a marriage is what you make it,
regardless of the chosen wedding date.
Celebrate Our Independence
Independence Day, or the Fourth of July, celebrates the adoption of the Declaration
of Independence by the 13 colonies in 1776, thereby severing their ties to Great
Britain.
That historic document was drafted by Thomas Jefferson, with substantial
edits made by other members of the Congress. An officially inscribed version
was signed by 56 members of the Continental Congress on August 2.
Celebration of the day began during the American Revolution with
fireworks and parades, traditions that continue today. The best-known
observance takes place in Washington, D.C., and includes a spectacular
fireworks display.
Did you know?
• A salute of one gun for each state in the United States, called
a “salute to the union,” is fired on Independence Day at noon
by any capable military base.
• The first week of July is one of the busiest American travel
periods of the year, as many people utilize the holiday for
longer vacation trips.

However, it was not until 1928 that the first residential system was developed. Part of the reason it took so long
was due to World War II. Families could not afford the luxury,
