On a cold, wet, raw 13^th of February there were only four of us that showed up for lunch. While we would have liked to have two or three times that number, it is sometimes nice to have a small enough group to get to talk with everyone and not miss out on anything! Needless to say, we had a grand old time, but would love to have you join us next month!

L-R: Marvin Howard, Doug Dreggors, Jerry Brown.

I actually got around to taking pictures before everyone had demolished the food today. Marilyn decided to get in on the the picture too.

On a Friday the thirteenth of April I decided to take the waitress up on the offer to take our picture. I think she does a better job than I do!

We had a nice turnout in May for our luncheon. George Huling was back for a change after the Texas Star Party. He's off to Dayton soon, and there was a lot of talk about Oshkosh from all the pilots at the table. Either Jim Rushing's developed X-ray vision or I need to clean the camera lens!

Down at the other end of the table ....  Mauricio got the prize for being the last to show up and shared the end of the table with Carol. Looks like it sure didn't slow anybody down though. I may have to mug Harold Shiroma to get that Antartica cap off him!

Had a nice get together with old friends at Tino's again.

Had a nice group of people for lunch and fellowship on Friday the thirteenth. We all agreed that this was just the right size group for everybody to join in a good chat session.

We We had a good turnout this month, and we enjoyed gossiping about you so much that we didn't leave until 2:00 p.m.!

Marilyn was working for a change, as we were not meeting on a Monday.

L-R: Carol George, Jack Bowling, George Huling, Jery Brown, Marvin Howard, Marilyn, Mike Crye

Well, since none of the ladies showed up for the October luncheon, I guess you could say we had a rooster session. Regardless of what you call it, we all had a good time!

L-R: Mike Crye, Marvin Howard, Robert Everett, Harold Shiroma, Jim Rushing, Jerry Brown, George Huling, Mauricio Nuñez

It being a Monday, Marilyn wasn't working, but we were well taken care of anyway.

And Mike Crye insisted that if I was going to annoy everyone else by taking pictures, he was going to take mine also.

The Wallners were back in town in November for a change, and joined us for lunch.

L-R: Jerry Brown, Jim and Connie Wallner, Marvin Howard

Jim Wallner got this picture which included myself. Who's that sitting on Marv's lap?

I think everybody was on their good behavior this month, evidently trying to impress Santa Claus! Lots of old friends gathered around the table with visions of sugarplums?

L-R: Jim Rushing, George Huling, Jerry Brown, Marvin Howard, and Connie Wallner

Good to see Jim Wallner as well as Joyce and Dennis Kaplan after a long absence. Dennis said I shamed him into coming! (I'd told him that we hadn't seen him in so long that we were about to start checking the obituaries for him!)

L-R: Jim Wallner, Joyce Kaplan, Dennis Kaplan.
