Pat says on her Facebook page:
"She turns 97 Monday. Always an adventurer she climbed the Great Wall of China, flew in a hot air balloon, drank beer at Octoberfest in Germany and on and on and on. Here we are in Mexico at the ruins. Always ready for a trip, her last was Yellowstone this winter to view the buffalo."
Now we know where Pat gets her drive from. The Club wishes Elsie a Very Happy Birthday!
