When retirees decide to travel in their golden years, most people sign up for a tour where everything is planned for them, including airline tickets, hotels, meals, and sightseeing. What they do not know is that there are many advantages to traveling without a tour guide and a set itinerary.

In A Perfect Trip to Italy?in the Golden Years, author and avid traveler Sharon Wilson shares practical tips and advice for those who want to make travel a real adventure without worrying about where they will sleep, eat, or catch the next bus or train. This volume concentrates on Italy and the cities of Florence, Venice, Rome, and Tuscany.

Wilson outlines useful information for choosing the right travel companion, planning the itinerary, preparing for departure with passport and money, and arranging day trips. She also includes an Italian food vocabulary, a list of useful words and phrases, packing tips, and sample recipes.

A Perfect Trip to Italy?in the Golden Years shows that enjoyable travel is still possible over sixty when the joints and bones are aching?neither age nor arthritis need be an obstacle.

Although 30% of American children are allergic to one or more foods, the several recipe books available to help plan safe meals for them (and for the 10% of adults who share their allergies) lack comprehensive guidance on other aspects of the problem. Your Food Allergic Child: A Parent's Guide was created specifically to overcome those deficiencies.

In addition to an extensive assortment of recipes and reliable guidance on feeding the allergic child (at home, at school, and while traveling), other sections include reference charts to the nutrient and chemical contents of common foods, medications, and grocery brands.

The book includes a foreword by Frederic Speer, M.D., nationally recognized authority on food allergies and author of several books on the subject.

...Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the evening... (Genesis 3:8)
God?s voice. What does it sound like?
Can we hear it? What does it mean for our lives?
In this book of word and art, we look together at how we can be more confident in our minds and have more assurance in our spirits that we are hearing, and being open to following, the Voice of God...

God?s Calling: Discerning His Claim On Our Life tells the stories of people from the Bible and from the worlds of sports, the church, and daily life who find themselves tugged by God to change directions and follow paths of service and ministry. Billy Turner, a pastor and retired journalist, brings his talents to sharing how individuals hear God?s voice and respond to his urgings.

Using stories rather than statements of theology, God?s Calling explains how God works in daily life to find, call, empower, and encourage people to listen to him and to serve his mission. By pairing together vivid retellings of familiar Bible stories and intimate narratives of contemporary people, both famous and ordinary, each chapter offers guidance and insight to heeding God?s call.

If your daily life grows noisy from the many demands and requests that come your way, you might have difficulty hearing God?s voice amid the clutter of competing voices. God?s Calling offers practical and wise advice for listening to God?s voice, to understanding his desire for your life, and to embracing the changes he wants to make by calling you to serve him. If you wonder what to say to God when he speaks to you, then this collection can help you answer that heavenly call.
