Earth Hour (and baby) celebrated by knitters

For the second time the knitting group participated in Earth Hour, while throwing a baby shower for Sparkling Squirrel. Well, we kept on a lamp for those knitting, but turned off all other lights. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29900742/ Here's the group at Indian Palace, and lounging in bed Sunday morning. Tucson Trekker & Rusty had some aura going on where I couldn't get a photo of both of them in focus.

KNITTING GROUP REUNION

In case any of you happen to be in town, please join us on Saturday Mar. 28 at 6pm for a KNITTING GROUP REUNION at Sally's Sister's with co-hosts Sparkling Squirrel, Jenny, and Jennifer. We'll make gourmet pizza. Here is a list of food requests. Let me know what you would like to bring.

· Appetizers

· Dessert

· Wine

· Jennifer = brownies, salad greens, wine

Don’t forget your knitting (or other) projects! Children are welcome, but let me know so I can anticipate what to do with Rusty.

GBDK Retreat?

March 28 is upcoming, (just four weeks away) the date previously set for a GBK mini-retreat in the Lawrence area. I'll be in town (for meetings on Monday the 30th and probably Sunday night). Who's in? For what? Who's coordinating? (not it).
I'll be happy just seeing my dear friends at their houses, but if we wanted to actually retreat somewhere, we need a plan (and frankly, if we're just meeting at someone's house, a plan would be order).

GBDK Mini-Retreat in March

I just learned I will be in Lawrence March 30 for a Board Deal for that fellowship. Without diminishing the need for a full-scale retreat some other time, I was wondering who'd be interested in getting together the weekend of March 28-29 somewhere near Lawrence. I'm asking now so that 1) we can plan to get a cabin or something so that everybody can "get away" (I'm sure that we could get together at Sal Sis' or Jennifer's place and have a great time, but that wouldn't be quite the same) 2) we put it on our calendars so that it is a done deal and 3) I start telling my colleagues that I won't be around for the State Academy of Science meeting, which we are hosting here that day (eek-- probably shouldn't miss them, but would far rather be spending time with some of you).

Let us know.
