End of an Era

Last night. Feb 21st...... we gathered together, amidst the snowflakes and the icy roads for our final Christmas dinner together. The men have gathered as the Worthington Sertoma group for over two decades, doing good deeds and supporting charitable programs, but they've decided the time has come and have chosen to pass the torch. So last night was a fond farewell. Our usual holiday gathering had often been on my birthday, or the day before, sometimes the day after..... it was so much fun to greet each other through out the night with a buoyant, "Merry Christmas" and I even got my usual birthday greeting from everyone. (A scheduling snaffu back in Dec forced a Feb. 'do-over.' ) As the evening wound down we started wishing each other a "Happy New Year" as well.

We decided that since it was the men who got us together for the first two decades, we wives would take over the organizational plans for the next couple. Better late than never.
