This year is starting off great with two new members joining us in February. We also had a new guest that expressed an interest in becoming a member and he has filled out an application to join SIR. With his induction we will have three new members in three months. As my dad would always say to me when l did something good “ AT – A –BOY “ But since it took something good from me to hear that l did not hear that to often. l forgot last month to thank one of our dedicated members, Lee Nichols and wife Susan, for arranging the donation of the wine for our monthly drawing. So at – a – boy Lee. With Ernie Sopp’s hard work we have a great speaker this month. l hope we have excellent attendance to support him. l hope February was a great month for you and your loved ones.

l had a great month. My wife and I spent a week in Alaska looking for the northern lights. We finally saw them from our airplane on our flight home but at least we saw them.
