General Discussion / Week No. 3

Maybe a good thing to do would be to choose a question from the list each week that conjures up the clearest memory and just write about that one. You might come up with a paragraph or ten pages' worth, and it doesn't matter either way. You'd still have a little treasure of memories to share by the end of the 8-week session.
There are no grades given for this class and I don't want you to feel pressured in any way. The last thing I'd want is for any of you to feel overwhelmed. I just want you to have fun strolling down memory lane.

We had two new faces today and they both had some interesting memories to share. Hopefully they'll want to continue with the remaining classes and possibly drop in on this forum, too.
Looking forward to reading what everyone writes this week. Next week's topic will be career/military. :-)
