Back Home

Hi everyone, just wanted to let all of you know that I'm back in North Carolina. We ended our trip yesterday (got home around 7 PM). We boogied through Kentucky and Tennessee faster than we expected. Lenny has to fly to Florida at the end of the month to have surgery on his neck. That lump problem has resufaced... bummer.

If you'd like to post something to this blog, send me an email and I'll post your message.

Love to everyone,
Donna

Trip Update

We spent 11 days in Wisconsin, the Northwoods of Wisconsin area is beautiful. I can understand why everyone loves living there. Eagle River is a big tourist area during the summer and the winter. They hold the National Snowmobile Derby there every year. We had lots of things going on with our friends. There are so many pubs and they have musicians that play music just like our winter Avalon RV group. We sang and danced - what fun! We danced at street dances and at the golf club deck. What a wonderful time we had with everyone - lots of things to do, and the lakes in the area are unbelievable. We even got to ride on a pontoon boat all around the lakes! What a time....We hated to leave, but we had to move on. Can you believe we've already done over 4000 miles and we haven't even seen North Dakota yet! Today we arrived in the Detroit Lakes area of Minnesota. I had to make a reservation for Lenny to fly to Florida at the end of the month- the lump on his neck is back again. I'm sure this means surgery. Not sure how much longer we'll be able to stay on the road since we have to make it home for him to get ready to go to Florida. We'll just have to see how things go. Okay, bye for now, I'll keep you posted on our progress.
Love to everyone,
Donna

Class Reunion 2010


Wow, what a great time we had at our 3 day event. Things started out with a picnic at Gretchen's and Leo, in Granby. His famous chili was absolutely delicious and the ribs unbelievably good. Talk about 'tender/fall off the bone' Way to go Leo!


The following day we gathered for a great dinner at the VFW in Belchertown. The food was terrific and we had lots of fun talking to classmates we hadn't seen in a long time (for some of us it was a lot longer than others - namely - me). Anyway we had a very good time, lots of laughs and I danced my fool head off!


On Sunday, it was another great gathering at Mike & Nancy's house in Belchertown. Nancy was so sweet to open her home to all of us. The grill was 'manned' by Mike. Hotdogs on the "barbi' and ribs.
A special thanks to Gretchen, Leo, Mike and Nancy for all their hard work in putting up with the 'gang'.
Lots of classmates and their spouses (friends) attended the events and I'd like to thank all of you for making me (and Lenny) feel so welcome after all these years.
