March Meeting: FORGING on for Friday


Plans for lunch: Good weather mandatory. Wouldn't you know that the place I picked is also picnic table/outdoor seating.  But it will be beautiful and from the recommendations I have had, it will be good food at not high prices. It looks like you come in and order from the counter. I will pick up Jo at 11:15 and head down to The Luxury (103 E. Jones)  to see about getting us organized, so some of us can get there about 11:30ish. I will call today to see if that helps with making a place for all of us. So far I have Rebecca, Margaret, Robin, Karen, Deb, Doerte, Cathy Hof, Jo, Jane and me = 10.  Anyone else? Just let me know. I know we will enjoy discussing The Art Forger.
 
Tour: all but Doerte will continue over to the San Antonio Museum of Art (200 W. Jones) Discounted one-hour tour (1:00pm) $6 (maybe $5 for seniors, I didn't check). $5 more if you want to visit the special Sully exhibit after that.
