The Committee

This past year, I decided to join the Fort Worth Woman’s Club. It is a club comprised of several study groups. It was appealing to me since so many of the clubs or groups study history, plus it seemed a perfect way to meet other women with the same interests.

There are all kinds of committees within the club to participate in. For some reason, the decorating committee ask me to join.

Although it isn’t even Thanksgiving, the houses which make up the club require decorations for  the holidays. I may not be in these pictures, I but I was there and did my share of work!

One thing I certainly enjoyed doing was gift wrapping all of the empty boxes to put under the many trees.

The particular study group that I am in had a bus tour of Ft. Worth on Sunday afternoon led by a county judge who is an expert on Ft. Worth history. His family dates back to the beginning of the town. For three hours we toured almost every corner of this place and even though I thought I knew it all, I certainly learned a lot.

I thought this rather humorous. With a bus load of ladies there were several who needed facilities after a couple of hours. Where to find such facilities on a Sunday afternoon?  Well, if you are a judge you have a key to the courthouse. Above is our beautiful pink granite courthouse built in 1893.
