Do you you have a love of maps and history? Are you interested in the environment through an historical lens? Often we are taught subjects as self-contained disciplines, but in reality there are many natural forces which effect an historical event, such as plagues, landforms, climate, wind and ocean currents. This group isn't about reciting dates or capitals--we explore people, places and events and the the way the natural world has affected history and vice versa. It's really amazing stuff!

I started this group to gather sewers, embroiderers, needlepointers, and other stitchers. It's a time-honored tradition throughout history for crafters to socialize, exchange ideas and techniques, and feel motivated to finish projects! There is no age-limit, skill level, or gender, but you should have some knowledge of embroidery (or a really strong desire to learn) and enjoy the company of others.

… Most people are involved in this sort of thing because they like adventure, architecture, photography, history, and meeting new people with common interests.

A social group for all of us who are proud to be GenX and many of us no onger getting carded. We're going to explore craft brews in the Philadelphia area and make fun of the wine drinkers. Just kidding. Maybe. Open to everyone but focused on the tiny generation born between the years 1965 and 1985. Or if you: remember having to "learn" email, when making a phone call changed to 20 cents, think the 1980 Winter Olympics was the ultimate in sport history, Mike Schmidt, Dr. J, the Muppet Show, pegg …
