Road Trips


The weather is getting warmer and is beckoning us to enjoy the sun and vacation time. Some of us have talked about taking some small or not so small road trips. Are you interested? A poll is listed for you to cast your vote for a place or event. Or you can always suggest something else. Also feel free to post times and dates when it would be good to go.




Those of you who are contributors and get an email when something is posted to the NUDG blog can also write posts. You don't have to just respond in the comments section. We would love to see this blog grow, so feel free to share the site with others, specifically your single friends. If you are interested in being a contributor please let Loren or myself know.

Celebrating the Leap Year

Thank you to all of you who came out to the Leap Year Dinner! It was a lot of fun. The food was great and the guessing game was pretty funny. We'll have to post some of the answers to the questions on here. Thanks to Monica for organizing the game, food, and sending out the e-mails. Michelene will plan the next one and we'll announce it in the next week or two. We had 11 men and 11 women there! Thanks for inviting out your friends- invite a few more in March.

I should have taken some photos, but didn't, so here are a few images from old-time Leap Year celebrations. I also read a little more on these Leap Year Traditions this past week. They are interesting and worth reading. There is even more here on Leap Year balls and dances. Good for a smile. -Loren
