[Men] undecorating at the church

[Joe Baker]

Hi Everyone,
I am not in Marietta to help out, but it might be worth devising a plan
with Jane and Martha to go through all of the old decorations and clutter
in the loft, to weed out what we no longer want or need, and to figure out
a safe method of storing what remains. That might be food for thought,
especially with the fire inspection on Monday. Even a plan for going
through all that stuff would be helpful.
Also, with snow on the way, is there a plan for clearing sidewalks?
Two cents worth,
Joe
