I never guessed Tami Coddington had an alter ego...But...She was in a hair show at one time and ASKED to have her hair died 2 shades of purple!!  I'm pretty sure I got that one correct.  She even signed a release. (it may have been a mistake....)
 
Program:
Jim Isgar spoke about the subject near and dear ...WATER.  "Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink."
He explained that Colorado is coming out of a drought but we are still in a conservation mode, or need to be.  We are trying to trasfer water from those who have it to those who don't, basically.
He said we need to do more to "trap" water on wet years.  Do more to get water into our aquafers.  He gave many examples for us to try to follow.  But the bottom line is water is a serious issue and we are by no way out of the drought.  He fights in DC for our water all the time and expects us to do the same here.
 
We ended our meeting by all of us reciting our 4 Way Test either by heart or reading off of our NEW banner just received.
