Today we welcome a new member to the Klatsch: Sheila Donaldson. Sheil packed it in at the Tech just before Christmas and this is her first Klatsch as an official retiree. Congrats, Sheil. Hope you'll make it a habit to stop by on Klatsch day. Sheil and Gerry have just bought themselves a vacation home in Phoenix and on the way back from there after Christmas they stopped in Vegas long enuff to purchase this little souvenir for the KlatschMeister, Polly, the insult parrot. Polly's outbursts are not repeatable in an all-ages album but she definitely isn't shy about expressing her thoughts...

Edelweiss has moved its cuckoo clock display so Sheil posed in front of it to show everyone what she won't be doing much of now that she's retired: checking the time!
