Newsletter Title

[Greg Livingston]

Why not make it:

The Parnassus
A Newsletter of the Clan MacLea (Livingstone) Society

This would be in keeping with the name of the society and not indicate a specific time period. That way when we do go to quarterly we would not have to change the second line.

Sounds quite reasonable to me!

Hi Greg,

Sounds good to me.

Hi Kyle, Greg and Jill,

The Quarterly notion I guess was just for show. In an ideal world perhaps a quarterly newsletter would be nice. Whatever works for the clan. I think two times a year would also be good. I guess it would make better sense to utilize a photo of a Parnassus flower or better still an old photo of a drawing rather than attempt to draw one ourselves. Certainly would be easier.

regards,

Donald

Hi Donald;

While I know we are in the embrotic stage of our newsletter. May I make a suggestion. That we introduce a bit of levity by including a Limerick. I am sure we have literati within our members who would be happy to compose a happy and funny Limerick: in honour of our Scottish - Irish heritage.

Regards;

Roberta

[Kyle MacLea]

Do I hear a volunteer, Roberta?

Hi Roberta,

Levity would be good. Levity for Levingstons.

regards,

Donald

As mentioned above Book titles often have the same title “In the Arena” comes to mind. I say go forward with "The Parnassus" or is there a Gaelic version that sounds better? That could have the phonetic spelling under it.

[Kyle MacLea]

Good question, Jerry. But my thought is that probably there aren't a lot of gaelic words for very specific types of flowers out there. I could be very wrong though.

Hope all is well back east. Did you make it to the Christmas Walk?

Kyle,

All’s well back East, just arrived back East from a long weekend in Sunny Palm Springs. I passed on the Christmas walk this year. I was willing to attend but my bride does not have the same hearty ancestry as us to have weathered the 32 degrees, wind, and rain/sleet during the event.
