September topic-"Dirty Pennies and/or Rusty Nails" Have you ever thought where has this penny been? Found a rusty nail on the beach or in your yard and wondered its origin?
October's topic is "Costume". You can take this subject many different ways. Not just clothes worn on Halloween or for parties---maybe it's a personality or facade.
November's topic is "Thank you!". We will write thank you notes. Is there someone who you know deserves your appreciation but you have procrastinated on telling them so. Now is your chance! Please bring stamps, and Sue will bring the Thank you notes.
