Alaska is now a Memory
Thursday, August 12, 2010
On my left is Linda Corcoran (Foster), and the other two are John and Mary Connor. So who are they? They are friends from High School days (Florida). John and Mary I have seen at reunions every 10 yrs. Linda I have not seen in 42 yrs. We had dinner in Anchorage Alaska.
Alaska is a now memory, but I look at the photos often, and am still processing some of the photos. Yep, this was a highly memorable adventure, like hiking into the Grand Canyon. A great part of what made Alaska memorable was spending time on vacation with siblings; Sis Dorothy and husband Terry, bro John and wife Rose. Of course getting re-acquainted with high school friends is also at the top of the list. And then there is the Alaska as the background.
Dorothy and Terry somewhere in Alaska.
Currently hanging out in Seattle, WA. Here am getting together tomorrow eve with Barbara and Jennifer. They are long time friends, and bike buddies that moved away from the Bay area about 10 yrs back. Have not seen them in about 8 yrs. And they have not seen each other in ... So it is great that it will take my visit to bring us together. Barbara is having us over for a BBQ. Looking forward to catching up with them.
Somehow, I remember sis Dorothy being taller, but she is just short standing with her brothers.
I have not taken time to be a tourist is Seattle. I think I will leave that for some other time. This time here is for visiting with friends and family. So, here will also visit with Rita. Rita is high school friend Bob Gomes little sister. Bob lives is Bucksport, Maine. I have not seen Rita since we were teenagers, like 42 yrs back. Almost forgot, will also visit with Rita’s brother Frank, who graduated with bro John. We, me, bro John, and brothers Bob, Frank and Tony were all in the wrestling team in those younger days. ... Rita used to call me the “Rubber Man”.
