08/29/2007: "Las Vegas Here We Come"

Have you heard our next reunion will be at Las Vegas, Nevada. John Gaynor has stepped up to the plate and has agreed to set up the next reunion. John was the company commander for the 981st during 1968 to 1969. I am really looking forward to seeing the group again.
While on reunions I just want to commend Bob Bouslaugh and his family for an excellent reunion. They did it all. If you did not get to go, let me give a brief description of their hospitality. We had a barbecue one day with Bob's brother, David, doing the cooking and Bob's daughter, Kimberly, doing the serving. Bob and David took care of the hospitality room. Bob's son-in-law was the DJ for our banquet. Bob's wife Cookie and both daughters and even grand children helped us get familiarized with the area. What a family. They really know how to entertain. The city of Durango is one of the best tourist attractions that I have been to. I believe this reunion rates of there with the best.

Take Care to All
