I am so SORRY!!!! UCSD Reunion

Opps....I thought I had posted pictures from the reunion, but, I guess I didn't....here is some background: Jeff went to UCSD...his dorm, Dana Hall, had a reunion at the beginning of the month....very special group of people....a lot of people travelled from Northern California, but people also flew in from Houston, Hong Kong and Japan! It was a great time...some people we haven't seen since our weddings....

The day started off with a campus tour...most of which was new for everyone...the campus has grown in 25 years. After the tour, we had box lunches, pictures and then "entertainment". During that first year, there were various incidents that included "Dana Hall Songs" (there is a link in my FB videos), practical jokes and someone mentioned a party that was broken up by the police...something about a punk rock band playing at the hall??? dunno...never really got the full story....and of course, Jeff knows nothing about any of this...he must have been studying in the library....

Here is a group picture of the Dana Hall group...can you believe they even have an "Official 25 year Reunion SHIRT"?

This picture includes all of the families...the youngest "child" is 4 months old (although someone couldn't make the reunion because she is due anyday....so, Sheridyn may no longer be the youngest), and the oldest is a sophmore in high school...(of course about 5-6 people are taking pictures...)
Adrienne and I are eating our sandwiches....she is married to Sean who instigated the reunion. They now live in Houston with their baby Sheridyn. It has been years since we have been able to talk...she is SOOO SWEET! We have seen Sean over the years, but, he usually doesn't bring Adrienne on his business trips. The last time he was visiting, I told him he couldn't come back unless he brought her....he hasn't been back...SEAN, I was kidding!!!!

Would you believe that Jeff's roommate, Kee, lives in Newark? Maybe 5 minutes away? Crazy, eh....
After the tour, lunch and singing...the group met downtown for dinner and bowling....one of the guys drove down from Carmel just to go bowling...he couldn't leave until Saturday morning, but once he saw who was coming, he "had" to drive down for the night...


Like I said, it was a great group! They are talking about the next reunion being in Greece....I dunno....Hawaii was a 2nd choice runner-up....
