What do we do the day before Thanksgiving. We do some turkey bowling-well actually Cornish Hen bowling. I do believe we could form a great team! Happy Thanksgiving to all! #BickfordofClinton

Celebrating this lovely smile and the ray of sunshine she brings to all around her! Happy Birthday Marion! We hope you enjoyed your special day! #BickfordofClinton

We took a spontaneous bus ride today to see the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train. We got VIP parking. Julie our VIP volunteer joined us and helped get us hot cocoa, hot apple cider and cookies. The train was spectacular, the music was wonderful. A Big Shout Out to the best BFM'S for making this happen on short notice. We had a wonderful time! #BickfordofClinton

Tessa from St. Croix Hospice came and did an educational activity. Since it is so close to Thanksgiving, we celebrated pie. Everyone got to toss 3 dollop's into a pie. Jeff was given the honor as the "Pie Dollop Dunking Champion" as he got all 3 in the pie. We also talked about what we are most grateful for, our favorite food at Thanksgiving, favorite family holiday traditions. We all did get to enjoy a piece of pumpkin pie. #BickfordofClinton

Hannah, from Clinton County Conservation started her winter programs with us. Today was about Beaver Island. This was a populated island in the mid 1800's until the mid 1900's. At one point there were 12 farms and 30 families that lived on this island. They had a school house, grocery store on over 1800 hundred acres. Many of our residents had been to this island or knew someone who lived on the island. We are hoping that the timing and weather are such that we can go out on the Blue Heron by what is left of this community. #BickfordofClinton

Chuck, our Bickford family volunteer accompanied us on our bus ride. We went to some of our smaller rural communities. We went by some of our present and past residents homestead. Our last stop was at Chuck's old homestead, which is now owned by Mollie, Chucks sister-in-law. Mollie was was a gracious host and brought out different breads with hot apple cider.... yum! We also met Mollies loyal companion Benelli Galusha. #BickfordofClinton

Music is so good for soul, add some dancing and you have fitness as well. Ron never disappoints, our residents enjoyed so much they were up dancing and singing along. We can’t forget our amazing therapists from FOX therapy, Charity and Dawn. #BickfordofClinton. #HigherPath

Vivian and Audrey are both residents at Bickford. Some 65 years ago, Vivian's daughter Kim was the flower girl at Audrey's wedding. We truly do live in a small community. #BickfordofClinton

Lou comes every month and the residents love him. What a lot people don't know is that Lou and his family raises $5000 every year for St. Jude Hospital and research. Lou and his daughter just ran a 26.2 mile marathon for St. Jude. #BickfordofClinton
