Join the group for monthly book discussions at 11:00 a.m.
Time: 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm

Soup Luncheon - MacTier - The 2013 soup kitchen luncheons are being held at the St. James the Great Catholic Church hall instead of the MacTier Lions Hall.
Reason for this is many elderly coming to the luncheons had a hard time getting up and down the stairs. So the soup luncheons are on January 19, and 26; February 2, and the 9, all from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The cost is $5 a person and you get a bowl of soup, sandwich, dessert, and beverage. It’s a good deal.

Which comes in very handy when your dog is as smart as Martha. When she correctly answers a trivia question on a radio call-in show, she wins an all-expense-paid family vacation. But when the official award notice arrives in the mail, it contains Martha’s least favorite words: “no dogs allowed!” Will her family go on vacation without her?
Martha’s clever way with words saves the day in this doggone funny new...
