Chris Kolstad read a moving and sensible bit from a Seneca Indian in 1855. The earth

Nell Johnsen read from Garrison Keillor's latest book, "Leaving Home". He talked of
children returning to school,galloping around, on the verge of bursting. Nothing we

Beth Bullard added a word to us about a project of a local ornithologist, Al Geis,
who would like someone to volunteer as an observer of birds' eating habits at feeders.
He would pay them a bit for 1/2hours observation a day. Anyone interested?

Committee Reports : The Museum has an exhibit on now about Sherwood.

Nell mentioned that her mother, Betty, is now at Meridian Nursing and Rehabilitation
