Ha, ha, Judy! I wasn't so much worried about what to wear as I was about how to stay clean and not too sweaty, in a timely fashion, so I could show up smelling nice and sweet at the 6 p.m. dinner! Betsy

Oh Lord ... don't ask me1 I've been forever challenged with "What to Wear?" (To this day, I think can remember saying to my mother, one Sunday morning, "If God doesn't like me in my bluejeans, then I won't go.") Probably the major reason I was happy with (and would always encourage) UNIFORMS. Judy P.

Claudia, you are so wonderfully organized! Between you and Nancy, we have a pretty clear picture of what's happening.

Likewise, if we go hiking at Elizabeth Park or the reservoir, we will need to change from "tea" clothes to hiking clothes, and then shower/change again into something appropriate for the dinner at K-O. If we are staying in Farmington or Avon, do we drive back and forth for all this changing? Timing seems rather tight here... Or do we just wear jeans and sneakers all day??!!

>Thank you for setting up the spreadsheet, Nancy. For those of us "catching up," this is available to all, and anyone can work on it, highlighting whatever box you want to record anything in. You access it by using Google docs (most currently available via Google Drive, but before I even had Drive, I could use a shared Google doc. Its a great way to work together something that is evolving.

So far Rena, Bonnie and I have said what we will bring: coffee cake, Greek yogurt, blueberry muffins, bread, "something from whole Foods", and I recall Lelly offering champagne for mimosas.
>>Please let me know what you will bring. OJ, fruits, something to spread/put on the bread come to mind. Once I have more info to submit perhaps Nancy could add another column, so it's all in one place.
