2025 Began with a January EGA retreat in OCMD. Liz and Deb joined the other EGA Members and gathered for an extended weekend known as "Camp Wannastitch". Liz caught a "cold" and most folks left early due to a Northeaster moving into the area...ice and snow hit Sunday afternoon. We went home Saturday afternoon - traveled home safely and easily...there is NEXT YEAR!
