D.C. & Harrisburg, Day 5

Otherwise known as Day 1 of the Civilian Symposium (or, day 1 of the pre-Conference classes).

No fun landmark pictures today, as I didn't leave the hotel, but I did get to take fun workshops with Kay Cogswell and Janine Whiteman.  The evening Welcome Reception featured period entertainments, including delightful singing by Colleen, Liz, and Betsy.

a display of original beaded bracelets.
