Reunion Committee Reunion Recap:food and friendship


My Reunion Committee /North High School-Sheboygan,
class mates meet to recap our recent class reunion.
We so enjoy sharing a friendships and food!
This time we shared pizza at
Mary Jo's (Gartman)restaurant.
Osteria Nonna Maria
http://www.osterianonnamaria.com/
We plan to meet again in about six months...
the future "friends and food" will be informed of the date, time and place through the convenience of emails.
I look forward to having a huge group of classmates gathering together more than just for our more formal reunions.
Getting older has it's definite advantages of more time for our families and friends,
especially since many are retired, but so very healthy and active!

YAAAAAAA!!

Time away..fun and friends

I again enjoyed my visit to the Rahr Museum in Manitowoc.
They were putting up a show “The Art Of Table settings” will be opening on Sunday, October 9th, but got to walk thru while the artists were setting it up.
Below is just one such theme"settings":


This photo was taken as I stopped then continued going up stairs to view not only the mansion architecturally-structurally, the view from its windows,
and the collections on display preserved and displayed throughout.
I also enjoyed seeing how my birthplace=
TWO RIVERS and the area near have changed.
My first home is still there and the porch that so many photo's were take of my brother Marv and I would poses on is the same, though it is 6 decades later.
..but after three day, it is nice to be home!

I am blessed to have spent the holy days with my immediate family,

and behind the lens to record what really goes down.
