I was lucky--got lots of stuff and friendly overtures when I joined.
And my name was in the local bulletin as a new member and one person
responded to me with a charming note. I just wish I knew more about
happenings in NYS and in NE because I don't mind the traveling to really
interesting activities if I can get away from the office. for example,
the article about MASS MEDLEY made itsound so good that I hope it
happens again next year and that I find out about it in time to make
plans to go.
Youhave irises blooming??????? I don't.
