For those that didn’t make it to the April 8 meeting Judy and Bob LaMay gave a history of their coming to live at their present home and that Bob, a long haul trucker at the time, voiced a desire to obtain a pilots license. Judy encouraged him and after many weeks of training, Bob became a licensed pilot. Of course it is hard to fly without a plane so they invested and soon Bob and Judy were visiting interesting places all over the East Coast.

Dave and Todd MacLean presented Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart,” a slide show utilizing a “magic lantern” design projector invented back in the 1600’s. This method was used up into the 20th century, at which point the modern day movie projector came on the market. The short story was compelling and the sound effects were outstanding.
