Take some time to remember those peaceful summer days and then think about all you have to get done before 2014 arrives. We have had a Wonderful Potluck Auction and thank you all for participating. I hope you had as much fun as I did. This time of the year, I am looking ahead to our activities for the November and December months. When you get your Newsletter, you will notice there will be no Out and About s scheduled for the coming two months. This is due to our tight schedule of Luncheons and coffees. Friends, please note that the luncheons are only 2 weeks apart. If you would like to pay for both, you must submit 2 separate checks. One for the November and one for December.
