COVER STORY: Honor Flight Tri-State takes veterans by charter jet to the Washington, D.C. area several times a year. It's a touching way for Honor Flight Groups around the country to say, "Thank you for your service."

SCENIC AMERICA: A combination of placid waters, huge trees and Spanish moss creates a slice of nature unusual for its location near Gatesville, North Carolina. 
 
 
 
 
 

ON A MUSICAL NOTE: Through their costumes, hair styles and music, The Queen City Sisters entertains audiences with the sound made popular by groups like the Andrews Sisters.

OFF THE BEATEN PATH: An iconic bridge connects two historic towns along the Delaware River: New Hope, Pennsylvania and Lambertville, New Jersey. Both are popular tourist attractions not far from the spot where George Washington made his famous river crossing. 
 
 
 
TIME CAPSULE: We again look back at commercials from the early days of television. There were lots of ads for car accessories and plenty aimed at the kids who would become known as Baby Boomers.
 

SEASONAL FEATURE: Window boxes, indoor floral displays, and elaborate outdoor landscaping are all part of the annual Cincinnati Flower Show, an exposition that helps usher in Spring each year.
