A REVOLUTIONARY GARDEN PARTY
I am being honored at a garden party on Founding Father Robert Livingston’s lawn.
[squeals]
I’m giving short remarks (with no doodles to hide behind!), but even better than that — this fundraiser is a lot of fun every year. Delicious food. Stunning gardens. Incredible live music. Croquet and other lawn games. (Croquet?! Yes! You, too, can play croquet on a Founding Father’s lawn!)
Join me for a celebration of America’s Semiquincentennial:
Saturday, August 22
4 – 6 p.m.

Extreme family-treeing with the Livingstons
I think I’ve got it now.
Tuesday, November 17 at 2 P.M. ET
There are Livingstons everywhere and it's enough to make one's head spin. In an attempt to make sense of it all, I’ve doodled my way through countless Livingston family trees. Even managed to connect a president or two. Can I make it through an hour-long presentation without getting discombobulated? There’s only one way to find out!
