Ten Red Hatters and two guests had a FUN luncheon at the Nuckleweed Restaurant in the Sacramento Mountains up above Alamogordo, New Mexico.
Rosanna Heath and Queen Ladybird (aka Carla Kerr) shared hostessing which included drawings for bagged gifts that Rosanna and Carla had put together.
We were going to play a game after lunch, but we were too many to fit in their backroom and had to move to the main dining area which is made up of stationary four-seat tables and our game just didn't fit the occasion. We had many laughs and much enjoyment just talking with each and relishing our meals.

This was the largest group we've had in quite some time and it was so good to see everyone. Our waitress is going to call me because she wants to join our chapter as a Pink Hatter for two years and then we will have another Reduation. FUN! FUN! FUN!
Thanks to my spouse, Doug Kerr, for processing the photos for me. He does a great job of making all of us look wonderful. Our next event is early August for the Queen's 84th Birthday.
This is all I have to say for now
