First Meeting

We had our first meeting on Tuesday evening, and although there were only three of us there, Cindy, Lance, and myself, all of us had finished the book. We all enjoyed the read, and had a lively discussion about parts of it, which spun off discussions about our lives and situations here in Quincy. A good time was had by all.

Before we adjourned, there were several ideas about other books that may serve as our next reading as well as ideas about writing and arithmetic projects. We decided it was Lance's turn to decide, and he will let us know the topic of our discussion for a Tuesday evening meeting in mid September. Hope y'all can join us then.
