And, speaking of bridges, I just got home from a fun evening at a fund-raiser for these nice folks. I was a volunteer, rather than a dinner attendee (though I did get to snag a bit of the food). Met lots of nice people. And managed to get myself a nifty Japanese urn, made by a local artist, in the silent auction. Then, the set had to be struck. Fold those chairs and tables! Fold those table cloths. Take down that backdrop, those pillars...... You get the idea. Still, heck of a good time.

If you've got a spare buck or two, you could do worse things with it than send the dough to these people.
