The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

The Ozark Mountains span parts of Missouri and Arkansas and have been home to this legendary creature that has captured the imagination of many. This elusive animal has been described as a large, black, and shaggy creature. Some say it looks like a very large cat.

What is more summery than an icy, sweet frozen drink? If the heat wave is getting to you, try whipping up this simple frozen strawberry lemonade. All you need is your choice of lemonade and some frozen strawberries. You can use store-bought lemonade, make your own from scratch, or a powdered version. As for strawberries, frozen ones are the easiest choice. If you'd rather use fresh, add at least two cups of ice until you reach a nice, frozen consistency.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

New Orleans, LA

The New Orleans Saints have tried to replace Michael Thomas in all sorts of ways this offseason. First, New Orleans went shopping in free agency: The Saints added a trio of wide receivers in Cedrick Wilson Jr. (two years, $5.75 million), Equanimeous St. Brown (one year, $1.13 million) and Stanley Morgan (one year, $1.13 million). Then, when the draft rolled around, the team selected Pittsburgh’s Bub Means in the fifth round. And for good measure, the Saints even took some flyers on several undrafted free agents and are banking on the growth of internal options such as Rashid Shaheed and A.T. Perry.

How much will the Saints miss Michael Thomas? And who will fill the wide receiver's void?
