| Patty and Donna |
in Vancouver, WA. WALA stands for "Washington
Association for Learning Alternatives". It was held
in the Heathman Lodge. It was a very nice hotel.
Patty is the teacher we took with us. We had to
leave a little after 6am on Thursday Feb. 27th. Patty
lives in Forks so she came and spent the night. We
drove back home on Saturday, March 1st.
I really enjoyed going. It was fun to see all the
activity going on. Donna had so many meetings to
go to and other things she had to do that she was
busy right up to bedtime.
I sat in on a couple of the classes. I sat in on
the class Donna was conducting. She did a
great job.
Friday night was the Banquet dinner and a silent
auction. I bid on a set that had a huge jar of handcream
and hand soap.
Patty bid on a bath set and gave it to me.
Also, I bought myself something from the gift shop.
It is a clock, thermometer, barometer, and hygrometer
all in a nice stand-up wood unit. The thermometer
is a water filled tube along the side. It has what
look like 5 large bubbles. You can tell the temperature
by how the bubbles move up or down. Each bubble has
a temperature tag on them. The printing is quite small
but I have them memorized already.
