Ben, I am disappointed!!! Oh well, it wouldn't be as fun with not everyone attending anyway. We could use the money we sent you too! :) We don't have any big plans yet, but I think we will probably be moving in the beginning of June. We don't know where we are going yet, but it most likely will be Manhattan Kansas, or Reno Nevada. If we move to Kansas, we are hoping to stay at your house for a night, because it is half way. But of course, it is still all speculation for now. We are up for camping, biking, Vegas (if we live near there!) or whatever!

Vegas would be great for us but just because we live so close or closer than all of you! But it could get pretty expensive. We think June is a great month. We would like the reunion to be a little closer than Colorado. Like somewhere in Utah or Idaho. We have no specific dates but Andy's five day is the weekend of the 6/21-6/25 so that would be a great weekend. We would really like to get to the outdoors and enjoy nature. We are up for most anything camping, lodging etc. We do not own bikes Ben so no Biking for us!

Sorry, I've neglected this thing. I regret to inform everyone that the snow mountain ranch reservations have been cancelled due to half the family not being able to attend. For those of you who sent me money, it will be returned to you as soon as I can sell the new car I bought with it. There will still be a reunion, but it will probably be less organized, and earlier than August. It sounds like June would be a better month for most of us. We will let you know, but it will be such that you will not be required to attend, i.e. no money due up front.


Vegas has been mentioned, as has another river trip. There are lots of possibilities, including everyone who wants to can come to my house and we'll have a computer game deathmatch, or, if you prefer, a cycling clinic: last one to the top of Mount Evans loses. I need to call each of you and get some more ideas. We will let you know. First off, though, please send me your calendar for the summer. If you have plans (school, scout camp, due date, or elective surgery) let me know. I want to find a time when everyone can make it.


Jule is still pregnant. It's been a little harder on her than her previous ones, though she will never admit it, even to me. She's due in April.
