Long time members and newbies came together for a Friday dining out at YAMAS Greek Eatery in Plymouth, NH. It was great putting faces to names. As the weather warms, organizer Sheila McCleery is looking at restaurants where we can sit al fresco. We can barely wait! Join us next month when we head out for lunch. Whether you get there directly or indirectly, just try to get there!
