"Darn Those Brick Walls" was the topic of GSMC's March program today. Darlene Anderson gave a short presentation, discussing reasons why we have brick walls and techniques to solve or maneuver around them. After the discussion, Darlene and Ron Darrah answered questions asked by the attendees about their brick wall quandaries. We closed the discussion at 2:10 and two of our attendees talked with each other until 2:35. One lady was from Denmark, yes the country; and the other lady had ancestors who were from Denmark.
Who attended the program? Ron, Darlene, Jene, Janet, Barb, Gail, Jill, Karen, Kristen, Larry,
Paula, Rebecca, Richard and Ruth. One of the attendees said this about the program, "Thank you for a great discussion! I got a lot of great ideas to try with my brick walls!"
GSMC thanks all of you that attended the program and hope we see you again soon!
