Welcome new member, Joan Tupper (left). She lives in Wallingford and says, I am an enthusiastic Italian language learner, and an avid pursuer of things outdoors in appreciation of our natural world. I’ve recently taken up the baritone ukulele, which I find as engaging as it is challenging. I’m starting to reunite with the social dancing world now that Covid presents less of a threat. My dog makes sure I get in lots of walking in Seattle’s beautiful parks. I enjoy volunteer work (reading to children) and being a student in various academic pursuits both locally and abroad. joantupper@yahoo.com
