June, Hi, Great!!! As soon as Karen gets in, I will ask her about Monday. I think it will be fine, most speakers like to get together with club members the night before, and whenever possible. Unless she is totally wiped from travel, I think it would work out great. A good chance to ask all those questions without the chaos/activity of the general meeting. She comes in today, so I will ask her when she gets here tonight. Dinner is definitely a go, just have to figure our where again...need to find out what her preferences are. (and her husbands) Send on your phone number (privately) and I will call you as soon as I know tonight. Does that work okay for you?? Kathy
