There are some health-giving qualities about one-on-one conversations that elevate them to the realm of tonics. Think back to how fun it was to talk to a friend as a child with two cans and a string.

Tucked between the buzz of summer and the cold of winter, we get a short window of — let’s face it — the best season of the year. Fall in Carson City is six to eight weeks of weather that can make a person giddy. The morning chill makes that first cup of coffee extra good for the soul and you can still catch those warm rays of sunshine by the afternoon. The local trails are just begging to be hiked, and the family activities are endless.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Early detection is key in the fight against breast cancer, so access to screenings is critically important.
