Silver Threads "lunch and museum extravaganza" season is gearing up ... Whoa.. 2010 is going to be an exciting year. Get your dancing boots on, 'cause we be having a great time.
1. this Friday night is the Senior Old Fashion Gospel Sing-a-long. Bring your bucket if you can't carry a tune. That will work.
2. March 9th Tuesday @ noon is the Metro-East luncheon.. 1100 at LWF Church. Come earlier if you need to go to The Confessional. Still only a paltry 5 buckaroos for the whole shebang. The preaching is free.
3. March 9th @ 6PM is the "Arnie and Gloria Game Night".. co-sponsored by Pastor Bob the younger. Food will be devoured... haven't hear what the food theme will be yet. Those of you that weren't able to make it last month, you done missed some fantastic humongous baked taters shipped directly from the fields of Idaho.... and all the trimmings. This time, Shirley will be bringing Jim and Becky Jolley's favorite dish: sauerkraut and veeniers. OH YES!!!
4. We will be grand parents again on March 23.. soooo, no outing possible on that date.
5. March 30 [Tuesday ].... we will kick off the ST field trip season with a "dual header" trip: Of course, a complementary LUNCH first... probably at HomeTown GRAND Buffetttt @ Mall 205. Following that mellowing out 11 AM gourmet delight, we will race over toooo to the other side of the Columbia River [to Washougal] and visit the "Two Rivers Heritage Museum" and the Pendleton Woolen Mills. Check the info on the bulletin board in the foyer.
Now, I have been asked about the "Tuesday trips"... why Tuesday and not Thursdays?? Didn't y'all vote for a "change" back in November 2008??? I know for a fact that Ron Porter did, right bro Ron? Wellllll..... bro Ron will never know I said that 'cause he doesn't have email... if he finds out, I know it was you.
The truth is... I was just considering your pocket book... Tuesday is Senior's 15% off any purchases at "the 8% tax and spend Pentleton Mills"... Real Oregonians don't pay no stinking Washington Sales Tax... never!!!
In April, we'll probably go back to Thursdays... unless you have a different day to go play in the countryside... NO NO NO, Minor, we can't do it on Sunday morning. Sorrrry.
April looks like a Hood River Trip.
May is probably VancouverUSA again.
June is a wonderful month... I think we'll invite all the ST to help put hay in the barn. Lunch on the ground... as they use to say in the old days.
July... well, that is just toooooo far in advance to plan.... if you have any good-n-cheap ideas, let me know.
