Sorry to have missed this last one...Steve and I were in Baltimore.
We hope to see some of you here and there in this small world.
In the spirit of small circles,
-Carole Anne & Steve

> Compassion and friendship thaws. Comparisons with others may freeze

> elusive when we feel frozen. Working to integrate and merge frozen and

> chilling effect, but may help us emerge stronger from having survived

> Time: Arrive at 4:00 pm (or at 3:00 pm if you would like to visit and

> Topic: To be decided by Sunday.

> For those of you who are new, Hopework is the practice of creating
