PS. Personal note:
Last week was Spring Break so Sophie and I spent two days together, including an overnight. The first day we went to a local park near her house, the library, and a beautiful park full of ponds, spring flowers, and many, many waterfowl. It was a perfect day and we can’t wait to go back.
The next day we went to OMSI—Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. It was our first visit so we took a little time finding the age-appropriate places for Sophie, but she did find her niche and, again, can’t wait to go back.
Last week was my birthday. I was touched that so many of you took the time to wish me a “Happy Birthday,” especially those on Facebook. How did you figure it out? The evening before my birthday I was treated to a wonderful dinner at Becky, Amanda, and Sophie’s house. Bruce happened to be in town so he was able to join us as well.
I spent several hours of the actual day, sitting in uncomfortable chairs at my public library, waiting for the AARP tax person to check my taxes. It was worth it because he found a mistake, saving me $200. The day got much better at a Stone Soup Supper with Bridge City Friends Meeting. We all brought vegetables, put them in a pot and had a very tasty soup to eat. We also heard a presentation from the Oregon Food Bank.
In Friendship,

News from Western Quaker Newsletters
Weeks from March 16- April 3, 2009
Dear Friends,
The Annual Meeting of Friends World Committee for Consultation, Section of the Americas was a wonderful event. Friends came from all over the world; Friends came from throughout the United States and Canada, and Friends came from the greater Portland area to work, worship, and fellowship together.
And we worked hard. We changed the way we organize committees and we took a hard look at our financial numbers. We were inspired by Friend Jan Wood who in speaking to the theme, “The Vision is for its Appointed Time,” reminded us how important it is to see the best in one another.
The Local Program Committee did an incredible job of showing Friends what it is like to be a Friend here in the Pacific Northwest and what great relationships we have among the unprogrammed and Evangelical Friends who live here.
The weather wasn’t perfect. There were showers and threats of showers most days, but we did have some sun breaks. The magnificent Douglas fir trees on the Canby Grove Conference Center both offered beauty and buffered the rain as Friends scurrying from place to place.
After Annual Meeting I took three Friends on a trip up the Columbia Gorge as a post-Annual Meeting excursion. We saw the river (of course), beautiful waterfalls, grass widows[1] and other wild flowers. We learned about Sam Hill’s connection to Quakers; watched the terrain change from the wet western side of the mountains to the more arid central Oregon; and were hosted for a potluck by the Mountainview Worship Group in Hood River. We even (almost) got lost in the snow.
In Friendship,
Nancy
