August Meeting Info

Our July meeting was great!  Seven of us snacked, talked books and world culture, and then had a swim in Patricia's wonderful pool.  In August our book will be The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd.  Joy Robinson has offered to have the meeting at her place (and that's super awesome because she also has a pool!)
