Second Wednesday

spacer
I think during these winter months we should "keep it simple" since the weather is always an unknown factor. So, Wednesday ... February 10th meet at 10 a.m. at First Watch. Hope you are all keeping warm!
Sherri

Please note that we'll be meeting on the 2nd WEDNESDAY of the month from now on to accommodate several who can't make it on Tuesdays!
