Nard, thanks for jogging my memory. Frank and crew also attended the theatre event and his was the class that made the posters. Those posters traveled by train all the way from Upstate New York.

I was there in spirit, as always, just a little under the weather lately. No poem this year either, I will have to work hard for next year. Regards to all who made it. |

Here are a series of photos from Ray’s Party. I’m sure other board members will be posting better ones than here but I hope you enjoy them anyway. Both parties were beautiful. Ray was in rare form despite our having a touch of Mid-West weather. Who has even heard of clouds in August???
