Toastmaster Krystyna Noworytta opened the Thursday’s meeting. She greeted members with “Spring Renewal”, and Dan Pratt presented the Word of the Day: “Portentous”.
Tony Pollack took us to wine country - in our backyards. He schooled us on the basics of wine tasting - best shared with friends and a good way to learn and socialize without being portentous (pompous, in this context).
Jeanne Rutgers offered some practical advice on how we could avoid conversation during flight. One of the tips involved was making sure the people around us think we're crazy. It was very entertaining.
Don Lyman had us visualize sitting around a campfire while he related a tale of a prospector's encounter with supernatural creatures, or were they just his imagination? We might never know for sure.
Tony Pollack and Jeanne Rutgers won awards as Best Speakers, and Gary Fuller as Best Evaluator.
