Sandpeeps, on the move!

From George & Pauline....

We are on our way home and are currently in Tucson.

While staying at the South 40 RV park

we ran into Bruce and Rochelle (whom were at Sandpipers 2 years ago).

Had some nice chats and they say hello to everyone.

Pauline took a picture of the couple with me for the blog, with their permission,

for people who might not remember them.

Hugs,

George and Pauline

Remember the Edinburg 10K last month?

The picture of the participants made The Monitor recently.

And Pam has submitted an article for the May AANR Bulletin

showcasing Sandpipers' runners from AANR-East who participated.

Dennis and Nora's roses made the perfect background.

Book Club Report from Louise....

We had a smaller, but no less vociferous and opinionated group, at book club this month discussing, The 19th Wife.

We also discussed the plans for the April meeting which will feature a scientific experiment apropos to the spirit of our last book this year, The Ghost Map. Don't worry Jon, I'm not going to blow up the Community Room. I am a professional after all, and I've never destroyed a building---yet.

At the end of the meeting we voted from 21 selections on our books for next year. I arranged the books from the longest to the shortest to accommodate slow readers like me, who have to get a jump on the selections during the summer.
