0 Comments

 
Our 34th meeting was conducted on Tuesday, April 21, 2020, and began at 7pm. Because of the Coronavirus Pandemic, this meeting was ONLINE, using the ZOOM Videoconferencing Service. Attending was Barb, Rick, Tom (and occasionally Tom's grandson Ezra), Ed, Linda (and her dog), Barry, Bill, Beth, Pat, and Michelle.

Notes from this meeting:

The meeting had it's challenges!  We were all treated by visions of pet dogs, not to mention the appearance of Tom's grandson, Ezra. Tom's shirt color changed, and his camera (or Internet connection) caused his picture to freeze from time to time.  Barry had similar problems, but managed to hang in for the entire meeting.  All in all, it was a good meeting, primarily because we were all "together" again.
  • Barry brought us a quote from Scandal in Bohemia, which several of us were successful at guessing.
  • Michelle read a character description of Violet Hunter from Copper Beeches, which was guessed by Ed.
  • Ed brought several fun facts for everyone's amusement and enjoyment.
  • Linda brought us one of her pets dressed as Sherlock Holmes, which served as our show and tell.  Thank you Linda!
  • The mystery for tonight's meeting was "The Root of all Evil", and credit for its solution goes to Rick, Linda, and Beth. Well done!
  • Barb did a  masterful job at presenting the story for the evening, The Norwood Builder.  Good discussion followed, including remarks about Granada Television's production of this story.

Plans for May's meeting:

The next meeting will be held on May 19th, and will probably be conducted using ZOOM again.  It that changes, Tom will let everyone know.  Here are the assignments for the May meeting:
  • Ed has volunteered to bring a quote.
  • Linda will bring a character description
  • Barb will bring a fun fact
  • Tom will bring a show and tell item
  • Beth will lead the discussion of the story "The Solitary Cyclist".
The mystery to solve is displayed below:
