LECTURE & CLASSES POSTPONED

please forward this message to all ALCQ members: (& anyone else who may be interested)
The lecture for tonight, & the weekend classes for Saturday & Sunday are cancelled due to this crazy snow- fall & wicked weather! Deb Hardman is snowed in on the hillside, the road hasn't been plowed, & the driveway is knee deep & getting deeper! We MAY be able to get out some time after noon tomorrow, but after talking with Mary, it's been decided that the whole weekend will get rescheduled. She is trying to talk to the school to see what works for them, & will let us all know when she knows.
Sorry for the change in plans. We'll do our best to make it work when we can. I'm all packed & ready to go!
Stay safe, & stay warm my friends!
Warm hugs,
Deb Hardman

The above quilt was quilted by Deb Hardman, & will soon be donated to the Aquarian school as a thank you for the use of the facility for the classes we will be doing there in the near future.
