Gone Fishing

There's no better way to take advantage of these last beautiful, warm days than to see if the fish are biting. That's just what some of our gentleman residents did on a recent outing. We packed up our poles and bait, stopped for a delicious bucket of chicken and headed to the lake. Sad to say we returned without a catch, but we had lots of stories to share. It was a wonderful, relaxing and memorable afternoon.

Planting Happiness

Our courtyards are in full bloom this summer thanks to the talent and efforts of resident Allan Cline. Liberty residents and visitors alike admire the fruits of his labor as he transforms our courtyards during the growing season. Starting in early Spring, Allan begins creating his master plan, choosing a color scheme and making plant selections. We are extremely grateful to Alta Florist Greenhouse for their generous plant donations as well as Lowe's Garden Center for a substantial plant discount. Allan takes pride in his hard work and enjoys watching people take in the beautiful colors and smells.

The Simple Joys of Warmer Days

We've been waiting patiently for warmer days to arrive and now it almost feels like August weather. A resident favorite on these muggy days is making homemade lemonaide. Part of the pleasure is experimenting with extra ingredients. Today's recipe calls for fresh strawberries, so we're busy cleaning and slicing. Stop by to chill out and enjoy this summer pastime with us.

The Power of Music Therapy

Friday mornings are always joyful and buzzing with music at our facility. That's because residents crowd in for our weekly Music Therapy. Becky Pittman, a licensed music therapist, has been associated with Liberty for years and her activity is the highlight of the week for many of our residents. Becky has always had a passion for older people, especially those suffering from dementia, and delights in reaching that population through the powerful effects of her music therapy.

Looked Who Hopped In

Look who hopped into our community to spend the day with us! We celebrated the occasion in our Community Room and this Easter we're proud to announce that we boiled and colored a grand total of 150 eggs. Everyone present was required to color an egg and get a photo with the Easter Bunny. It was a very memorable day for staff, residents and their families.

Decorating Committee Creates Another Work of Art

Getting to really know our residents has always been a Liberty priority and it helps our community members thrive. As an example, Jeffrey Whitmeyer, spent many years as a theatrical technician. Jeffrey created theatrical stages for multiple national tours, such as Phantom of the Opera, so he was eager and willing to share his talent with us. As decorating committee leader, he has once again designed a beautiful holiday display. This one is over our lobby's grand fireplace for everyone to enjoy. Thanks Jeffrey for getting us all in the Easter spirit, and we are looking forward to your next creation!

Creativity Time

Even though mornings are always bustling at our community, we try to fit a creative activity into our schedule most mornings. Arts and crafts or baking are very calming ways to start the day off and residents truly look forward to this time. Residents are applying their creativity and currently gearing up for spring by colorfully painting bird houses that we will eventually hang in our courtyard as the weather warms up.
