The Couples Dining Out Club ring in the New Year (a few days late due to the Schroeder's being out of town).  As usual, Roger and Margie Schroeder host the affair.  They furnish Pork Tenderloin and the members bring the "sides".  The food is delicious and the pretty Christmas dishes almost didn't need washing!  (Note Roger's plate.)

 Joining the Schroeders at this table are George and Joyce Seitz and John Gray.  (Nancy is taking pictures, as usual)

In the Dining Room are Betty and John Hagemeister, Connie Smith and Lupe Reyes and Bill and Jane Cheesman.  Margie keeps their decorations and displays them in different ways each year.  The two red table runners are the only new purchases.  Their Christmas tree has 900 ornaments.

Evelyn and Bill Rathke are in town for three months because they are now Winter Texas, who reside in Kansas.  Ralph and Faye Cobb join them.
