55th Reunion Trip

We have just returned home from another wonderful trip. It is always fun to get together with family and friends. Particularly when it's old friends. We went to my 55th reunion in Stockton, Ks. over the Memorial Day weekend. 15 of the 30 remaining classmates where there and we shared many great memories. The reunion was at Rooks County Country Club and two other reunions were taking place. The Class of 1951 and the Class of 1946, so you see we were the young ones. It was a good night of conversation.


We had the opportunity to see Ralph and Glenda and Mike and Mary who had celebrated their 5oth and 4oth reunions at Planville. We met for dinner in Hays on Sunday night and Betty was there also. From Hays, we headed back to Sidney, Ne to see Dixie. She had just been to Minneapolis to receive her Doctorate in Ministry. We enjoyed our time there and I got a round of golf in with one of her flock. I would highly recommend the Sidney Golf Course to anyone that enjoys the game. Great course and only $19.00 to play.





We then went to Gary and Nancy's to live on the pond. The Platte River is very high and there are flood concerns. We hope they will make it through the summer with no problems. Gary and I fished three different days. He has planted both Hybrid rainbows and German Browns in his ponds. As you can see, the Rainbows have grown well in the short time they have been there. This fish was 24 inches long and weighed almost 6 pounds. It was a lot of fun on a light fly rod. But the good eating was the Bluegills. I have always thought that they are about the tastiest fish around. Needlest to say we had our fill.

















Could not get over how green everything is throughout the mid-section of our country. The weather was beautiful and temperature very nice. I will post some other pictures when we get caught up.
