BOOK SIGNING - A FESTIVE AFFAIR
Our book signees: Local writer Mary Shafer Smith & Welsh photographer Ray Worsnop
We had 40+ come through in two waves.
 
Two Village Writers remember that, despite the book signing, it was OUR celebration.  Love to Jude and Val for the wine and roses!

What better place for the name tags than by the coffee?

Bring your favorite coffee mug and store it in these upper cabinets.



What an organized bunch we are. . .if we read the board.

Much more sophisticated than a TP pyramid.
