New member Steve joined 13 other Earlybirds for a meeting where we tackled scrum and Totem Poles.

The bright and relaxed Toastmaster Steve led us through a meeting full of historical tidbits about Spiro Agnew and The Rocky horror show while speakers Jean and Bernd managed to make both scrum and totem poles fascinating subjects.

We all shared what we are thankful for. Some of the memorable gems:

A government that works

Living in West Seattle

A new career that pays 100% commission (see Toastmasters are adventurous)

Next meeting Dec. 5. We’re taking the day after Thanksgiving off. See you on the 5th.
