[nfbmi-talk] New to MI from TX looking for chapter

[Evelyn Weckerly]

Hi, Brandy,

Welcome to Michigan and to this list.

Battle Creek is not far from Kalamazoo, 25 miles, I think. I used to 
live in Quincy, which is six miles east of Coldwater and on the I94 
expressway. The town was big enough to have one traffifc light.

I'm a retired high school English teacher and live about fifty miles 
northwest of Grand Rapids.

Cordially,

Evelyn
