The message (below) that I sent you came back to me as "junk mail" and no response from you so I am sending it to you in case you didn't get my count for the meeting. Wish I could be there - always enjoy EWGS get togethers.

I have conflict of dates on the 8th so cannot be there because I am Treasurer of the other meeting and do need to be there. I will be contacting my e-mail list of members to remind them and hope all can attend.

Can you believe that it is 2005 already? I remember back in the 90's, I never thought about going into the 2000 era. Time moves so fast. The January Luncheon is on the 8th at the Country Homes Christian Church - it is a potluck and you know what you are to bring by the last name. Here is a reminder - A-J main dishes (be sure and bring the serving tool); K-R - salads and S-Z are the desserts. Yummm. It would be really nice if you would email Shirley (FIREBUGVW@peoplepc.com<mailto:FIREBUGVW@peoplepc.com<mailto:FIREBUGVW@peoplepc.com<mailto:FIREBUGVW@peoplepc.com>>) or myself and let us know if you are coming. We would like to have a count so we will know how to set up the room. And mainly - bring something to share - let us know if you have had a success or brick wall or show & tell. Remember the members are what make EWGS successful and interesting. Without you, we have nothing. Happy New Year! Bette P.S. Board meets at 10:00 in the same place. Lunch is at NOON! ==== WA-EWGS Mailing List ==== Mar 5, 2005 Checking out the Resources in Stevens County and Beyond Susan Dechant ==== WA-EWGS Mailing List ==== May 7 Papers to Poland Shirley Penna-Oakes will take us on a trip from Cincinnati, Ohio across the Atlantic to Tuchow,Poland

I did send you a response and think I just thanked you for letting us know and was sorry that we won't have you with us. I think you can tell that I always enjoy the get-togethers and always have a good time. Bette
