[SustainableTompkins] Need help using a treadle sewing machine

[Margaret McCasland]

Hi Wendy,

Email me directions to your house (again), especially advice re one 
way streets if relevant, and I will try to stop by for a while 
Thursday evening and see if my memory can be jogged.

I want to hear Sylvester's talk at Museum of the Earth (back towards 
my current abode) at 6 pm that evening, so would around 5 pm be good?
