I'll report in again after the meeting on Monday, I'll admit that the members are

Thanks for the heads-up regarding the dates, Shirlee Anne. For what I write, though, it is more the interactions & personalities I am interested in. I realize that because most of the information is anecdotal from an aging population of women, they may not always remember when certain events took place.

all dates

This book has been an valuable resource for my historical fiction. It is fascinating to hear about the lives of those brave pioneer women.
