Sandra donated a painting to the raffle at the Gala this year, so it was wonderful to see and hearContinue reading “Saturday. What a Day!”

Strawberries and Cream :)
Bright and squirrelly this morning Brenda Oelbaum and I hopped into her car for a trip to South Bend, Indiana. Why South Bend you ask?

I always love traveling to meet upContinue reading “Strawberries and Cream :)”

Let’s Get Down to Business!
Most of the conference goers are on their way home today. Only a small group of motivated board members tend to stay behind in order to “make it happen” at the semiannual WCA board meeting.
