Dolly Parton never forgot where she came from, but the good she put into the world traveled far beyond home. A group of adults is proving you’re never too old for band camp. A new, personalized vaccine against melanoma has doctors saying it’s a new era of cancer care. A sunset toast at a California bar has become a legendary local tradition. Plus, a younger sister secretly spent months training at “Dance Dance Revolution” for her brother’s 40th birthday, challenging him to a showdown.
