BACK AT THE BEACH


Well I am back at the beach for another weekend, this will probably be my last weekend down here until sometime in September. Next weekend I am going to stay in town and go watch the Colonials football team play there final scrimmage before there season opener the following against Thomas Jefferson. Last night here at the beach First Flight beat Perquimans 55-37 and Manteo beat Currituck 34-19. Mark Martin captured the pole for tonight Nascar race at Bristol, I have got a feeling that some tempers will be flaring a bit tonight. I did go down to Dunkin Donuts this morning and I have to say they have now surpassed Wal-Mart as my favorite donuts. Have a nice weekend. MICKEY

Lutein. The plant carotene Lutein helps maintain eye health. Its highest concentration is in the eye tissues responsible for central vision. Researchers have also found Lutein to act as an antioxidant, which protect cells from damage. Since the body does not make Lutein, you may obtain it only from foods such as green leafy vegetables, oranges and tangerines.
