PC110503.jpg The Board met at the beautiful home where Dorothy Dearman was currently house-sitting (and taking care of a pet dog, whom you will see later on...!)	PC110505.jpg From both the front and rear, the house shows off its interior through much glass. The grand piano is well-situated and well-tuned!
PC110506.jpg An excellent dinner has become a tradition at all Board meetings, this one certainly no exception! I see Ellen Lilley, Michael Koelsch, Michael McCaleb, and Darlene Amundsen's back as the food is encountered.	PC110507.jpg The food is selected, under the watchful gaze of a sentinel pig!
PC110509.jpg The Charter Board of The Graduates, in session: Ellen Lilley, Michael Koelsch, Berkeley Meigs, Darlene Amundsen, Suzanne Amstutz, (observer) Michael McCaleb, member and hostess Dorothy Dearman. Bob Lilley behind the camera...	PC110510.jpg Ellen talks with her hands, which sometimes leads to unintended consequences, but is very expressive.
PC110514.jpg Berkeley Meigs' birthday was celebrated at the meeting, with cake and all. Berkeley prepares to extinguish...	PC110516.jpg ...and shows off the purse, a gift from the Board.
PC110521.jpg The ladies of the group "Champagne" serenade Berkeley and the Board with Holiday songs! (Also note "Vinny" the almost-silent partner of the evening, getting into the act.)	PC110522.jpg Berkeley and Dorothy enjoy the concert.
