My colleagues in the Getting Started program


Hi all:


Here's a photo of the five of us who teach a Monday afternoon class of elders learning to use computers. Yesterday was the last day all of us will be together so picture taking was appropriate. I was helping out a very nice woman named Josephine yesterday. We were practicing writing docs and then saving them to a file. Her three docs read: 1.I love this class. It's the best class I've ever taken. 2. I can't wait to get home and try this myself. 3. I am going to love shopping on the Internet.

I gave her the zappos.com address and asked her not to hate me too much after she spent all her money on shoes.

So anyway - in the photo, the woman with dark hair directly to my right is Margaret, the program director. She has an amazing amount of energy, has been all over the world, including 4 years in Boston working for a computer company. She knows the difference between Boston and the rest of the state!
