Fearing a debilitating first strike, Russian officials mobilized for their own preemptive assault, putting their entire arsenal of 11,000 nuclear warheads on maximum readiness. Todd talks about how close we came to nuclear Armageddon in the Reagan years, and almost no one in the U.S. knew about it. When President Reagan discovered the truth, he changed the course of U.S. foreign policy, and with it, world history.

ART CLASSES
Meet Our Resident Artist
By Donna Billings-Davis
Spending time creatively can help you feel less anxious, depressed and even have less physical pain. How? It moves one’s focus away from their pain to their art.
Meet Mary Preuss, who says, “When painting, I lose myself for hours. Painting is the best nerve pill I can take.” Mary traveled the world and now is painting memories of her trips. She enlisted her instructors to help her over several months to recreate a detailed watercolor painting of the Temple of the Sun in Chichen Itza, Mexico, as a present for a special student. Her current project is to paint a loving likeness of her beloved cat, Keira. One time, I gave her a plant from my garden to paint, not realizing there was a live caterpillar inside. She just painted it into her finished piece. We all chuckled. She brings lots of laughter to our Wednesday afternoon watercolor sessions.

Sewickley, dubbed “Queen of the Suburbs” back in 1895 by the author of the first blue book of Sewickley Society, is a charming old village with a lot of history. We will go back in time by exploring the impact of the three Rs: Road, River and Railroad. We will also see some fine houses built by notable architects and discuss Sewickley organizations known far beyond the local community. The walk will take an hour and a half, and then we will stop for a bite to eat. Sign up by calling the registration line; attendance is limited.
