A mini-reunion in September 2003
   

This is how you hold the flash so that you don't get red eye!

 

When we received the invitation to attend a joint birthday celebration for Pat and René Simonis in September of 2003, we knew it was an opportunity to meet up with people we had not seen in many years.

So we dug up some old photographs to share.  Here is René taking a picture during Thanksgiving in the late 60's.

 

Now I can do this one-handed!

 René is a lot better at taking pictures these days, digital cameras allow him to one-hand it!
We also found this picture taken while we were camping at Clark Fork campground - about 25 miles from where we now live!

From left to right are Julie, Bert, Martine and Lisa.
Still making faces, 35 years later.  Now from left to right are Kathy, Lisa, Debbie, Bert and Berlynn.
Al and Kathy took the time for a quick picture.
Making sure that everyone had enough to drink were Pat, Julie and Kathy.
Kathy and Berlynn discovered they were long lost "sisters"!
Outside, everyone had fun enjoying each other's company and a wonderful day.

Thank you for inviting us, it was great to see so many familiar faces!
