Well guess what?  It's now 6 months living here in Dundee, NY -- Woo Hoo!  I have made some really nice connections such as:

Our Lady of the Lakes Catholic Church:  Singing with the Members of the Sunday Choir.
Our Town Rocks and Reads -- Economic Committee.  Read grant applications; decide if eligible.
Dundee Area Historical Society -- Inventory Analysis; Identify the donated contributions on site.
First Baptist Church -- Community Garden Festivities.  Contribute cooking donations of my own.
Cobblestone Springs -- Peaceful prayer meetings.  Participate in Sr. Ann's discussion groups.
Pro Action Office for the Aging -- Bone building and Tai chi participant.

I've also met some really lovely people at these sites and made some new friends: 

Rose Jensen
Dee Anderson, Lauren Snyder, Karen Hadley, Bob Sisbarro
Lou Marcianda
Kristen Bellin
Sr. Ann
Pam Strong

In addition, I've just had the man-made pond renovated by a hardworking woman, Shannon Gibbs. It's such a small world out here. Everybody seems to know one another. In my case, I met Shannon's mom at St. Mark's Terrace where my Tai Chi class was held and she encouraged me to submit an article to Gwen Chamberlain, the editor of the Chronicle Express.  Gwen loved it and published it under "Opinions to the Editor."  (https://plus.google.com/+CamilleLoParrino/posts/CX9Udyv3tsN).
