Jo's Garden Hideaway

Thanks to Jo we had the perfect location for a warm summer evening, lots of tasty snacks and warm hospitality.  As a bonus, the mosquitoes stayed away.  Thank you Jo!

This was the book club evening that we had set aside just to share what we've been reading, etc. The list is below.
