Reunion pictures by Kent

Thanks Kent for sharing your pictures with us.

Who's taking picture of who?

Terry trying on the hammock. Looks very comfy.

We went through a lot of wood. Thanks Bob for the fire it felt good especially Friday evening and Sunday morning.

Bob it really wasn't that cold!! And a second outfit !! How extravagant.

Bob's first outfit. Not sure if he wasn't warm enough or needed something a little lighter.

Those in attendance 2011 Reunion

Al and Fran McMullen enjoyed the reunion and thank each of the attendees for putting up with Al's constant camera presence. It was a great weekend, great weather, great food, great games, great host and hostess, and great friends to share old memories with. LET's DO IT AGAIN before we are all in wheelchairs eh.

Engvar Braaten was there in spirit. Al and Fran stopped by on way to Vernon and had a great visit. Engvar wanted us to say hi to everyone and wishes he could have joined us. He remains "Jake"; very positive and content with what has been dealt him. If you are in the Penticton area you will be blessed by paying him a visit. He enjoys short visits.

More Pictures of Drayton Reunion 2011

Saturday morning early birds that went to chase those little white balls around the countryside.

The golf course north of Drayton. Seems like this was about the area where my 1957 Meteor met the rear end of another car.

July 1 - 3 was our 3rd reunion of the guys and gals who met and enjoyed each others fellowship during the 1950's and 1960's in the oilpatch. Bob and May Barker hosted this years reunion and again provided great food, games, and story swapping opportunities.

It got a little cool Friday evening but come on Bob it wasn't that cold!!!

May, Fran, and Arlene seem to be solving the world's problems or maybe coming up with some new ones.

There was lots of story telling times and catching up on the latest events in each others lives.

Saturday was a time for games. In the morning some of the group played golf and the rest of us slept in!! Then we met for lunch and more games. Terry seemed to have trouble with his ____ and its a good thing Al is easy-going. We had more laughs than we deserve. Thanks Terry for your great sense of humor. You liven up the reunions.

Still trying to get them untangled.

Lawn bowling or Bocce provided a little more exercise and look at the great form Kent displayed.

Arlene used her bowling expertise and showed us how it should be done.

Kent and Don relaxing after a hard fought bocce game.

Norma, May, and Carol swapping tales.

The two Bobs share stories.

Bruce and Arlene Harrison were new to the reunion this year. It was nice to meet the spouses of Arlene and Don and to renew old friendships.

Sunday morning was our last get together with pancake, eggs, and sausage breakfast.

Don cooked up some great eggs.

Bob makes great pancakes. We ate enough that it held Fran and I all the way to Shelby, MT before we had to stop for supper.

Bob, daughter Whitney, and May - thanks for providing such a great weekend. I'm sure Whitney was the one who ordered such great weather (she's an RCMP officer) . Nice to have one of those RCMP officers on our side for a change eh?
