SRVAS Banquet

I dragged my husband Doug up to Shekinah for the banquet on Tuesday evening  (those of you who know Doug know that it really is not hard to "drag" him anywhere).  

The food was awesome! Great company! Beautiful scenery! If I had paid more attention prior to this I would have caught on that I could take my paints up and spend the day (or days) doing my own thing and painting.  Would have cut down on the time commitment and the cost since I could stay as long as I had time & money to be there.  

I would like to say that I will do this "next year" - but the future of the school is yet to be decided due to a declining attendance.

Catching up from Jan 18

Just realized that I have all these great photos from our Winter Luncheon (January 18) that I have not shown to anyone...... it was a great party!  We exchanged some wonderful pieces of art in our Chinese auction. Rather than clogging this blog up with them - I have created a new page for those who are interested in checking them out. My photography skills did not capture all the smiles, but a good time was had by all.
