The luxurious Stonewall Resort was the setting for the September coronation of Elkins Purple Majesties new Queen Mothers Charlotte Thomas and Gerri Rosencrance. The staff treated us all like queens as we enjoyed an endless buffet of delicious chicken, steak, salad, deli fixings, potatoes, soup, and several mouth-watering desserts. (The later was so scrumptious the kind chef let us take some home!)

What a nice, warm late summer day. We wasted no time getting the royal coronation under way either. We had a boat ride to catch - and it was wonderful. Several members even spotted some deer drinking along the lake coastline. When we docked there were several very large fish waiting for us to feed them and a few ducks as well.

What a perfect day to welcome our new Queen Mothers. Here's to a very successful reign!
