We wanted to let you know our "day" is the 14th (not the 7th) !!! It is on the calendar in the new "Insider" that I received yesterday....Virginians are meeting on the 7th . Fortunately, Harlene can read a calendar better than I can...and has alerted us that the 14th is the day! As usual it will be from 9:30-11:30 Saturday morning. Tom O'Brien will be leading a program about what's "newer" in genealogy...and how far we've come from the "olden days". Harlene will be there as the watcher and doer...watching that plans get made 'right' and when I don't do that, fixing the problems. (Kristy will be in Illinois, teaching the Kendall County class for January.) Happy New Year.....Harlene and Kristy and Tom --- On Wed, 12/28/11, Kristy Gravlin <hannah@teleport.com> wrote: > > From: Kristy Gravlin <hannah@teleport.com> > Subject: Re: Oh My, What to do Now? > To: "Harlene Patterson" <harlene5@yahoo.com> > Date: Wednesday, December 28, 2011, 7:03 AM > > in a rush to get to ³work² at library...but Tom said he would do the class. > You are off the hook with the powerpoint.
