Re: Pins and breakfast

Paula--I like the Kokopelli or suguaro (sp?) cactus pins; however, we could
follow our "make more out of nothing" WC budget modes and cut the lizards
off our kids' old Izod shirts.  I'd be happy to help organize the breakfast;
if Elizabeth's connection doesn't work, I can get John Ramage (ASU)and Karen
Schwalm (Maricopa CC) to select a restaurant for us--
