We're still knee-deep in production here in sunny Yuma, Arizona and getting ready to head east in continuation of our Big Blend Spirit of America Tour of all 401 National Parks. We've been working hard on our Big Blend Network, a brand new searchable database that connects all ten of our Big Blend Magazines and Big Blend Radio shows; as well as our National Park Travel Planner that features the places we have visited on our tour. It's all a work in progress, so please pardon our dust as you explore our new projects.

In this edition, travel writer Linda Kissam reports on her recent visit to Yuma, Ward Heinrichs discusses work place discrimination laws, Lisa Grey shares tips on getting kids to eat healthy, Aggie Garcia talks about clothing and the environment, and Leah Launey gives us her chocolate meringue pie recipe.
