From Pennlive.com

Less than a month ago, Dr. Konstantin Frank Winery received national recognition for the third straight year from USA Today for having the top winery tour in America, highlighted by its 1886 Wine Experience.

Meaghan Frank, the fourth generation to manage one of the best-known East Coast wineries said when the concept was developed nine years ago it filled a void, offering an intimate educational experience “where you could really see the cellar, see the vineyard, you were tasting with someone very knowledgeable.” Read More.

Cramps are when muscles tighten suddenly.  When this happens during the night hours, particularly during sleep cycles, they are nocturnal leg cramps, commonly called charley horses.  They generally are in the calf muscles, but could also affect feet, ankles, and thighs Read More.

Color Red

Last on the rainbow is red.  Greens and blues are cool and calming, but red…hot and fiery.   It is one of the most visible colors, which it is often used as a warning like a stop sign or fire engine.  Yellow actually has a longer wavelength and is therefore more of an attention grabber but somehow red just seems to work better. Read More.
