Jim and Judy Steele were the guest speakers at the January meeting of the Pine Lakes Book Club.  The selection of the month, "The #1 Ladies Detective Agency", was set in Botswana, Africa where Jim and Judy lived for 2 years. Jim set up a program to educate teachers at  Botswana University and Judy tutored children with special needs.  Both speakers delighted the Book Club audience with their tales of life in Africa.  The February meeting was one of the Book Club's best attended meetings.  The Steeles live in Lake Fairways and most Pine Lakers know Jim as he has greeted them at the gate sometimes playing his tuba.
