Playing Catch Up With Shana      by Shana Roberts

A few weeks ago, four of us spoke at another Kate Thomas class on July 28th: Janet, Bonnie, Erica, and myself. Kudos again for those traveling great distances to make such an early class (especially Janet with a 3 hour ride). I only live about 8 minutes away from Villa Julie, and still got there late (I had to stop at my doctor's office and give blood)! There were 21 people in the class, but not all were students. Some, I believe, were from other classes of Kate's, and some were invited guests of the students. There was one guy in there who is in basic training down at Quantico - he had a confused look on his face a lot, like he couldn't believe what he was hearing. It was a good class, and lots of people asked questions.

After the class, the four of us had lunch at a local restaurant, a rather conservative one at that (yes, we did manage to garner a few looks!). Janet and I ran a few errands after lunch, while Ericka and Bonnie went shopping. I believe this was Janet's first time out in the mainstream during the day, and she thought it was great!

A July reminder, if you haven't sent in your dues renewal for the upcoming year, please don't forget us. We depend on your support so that we may support.

The next "meeting" is scheduled for August the 28th at Marsha's; it is the annual Bubba (guy) mode picnic. Those coming in dresses will have to be defrocked!
