Ellis Regenbogen saw his last chance to get everyone to go on a trip: “So we took the entire family (seven of us, including our daughter) on a cruise down the Rhine from Basel, Switzerland, to Amsterdam.” Bob Smith, “hired someone to mow the lawn” so he could “wander between two homes (Berkeley & Lake Tahoe).” Warren Cook did “nothing exotic,” but he will make up for it with a motorcycle ride from Maine “to Tucson in late October, staging for ride up to the Northwest and back to Maine in early summer in time to return to Vietnam next fall.” In June Dick Clapp visited Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California with Paula: “It’s a stunning place in the high desert, but it was 107 degrees the day we were there, so we didn’t hike but saw the sights from our air-conditioned car.” In May Marvin Soroos and daughter Valerie “made a two-week self-driving tour in Norway that took us from Oslo, north to Trondheim, and southward through the fjord country and an impromptu get-together with relatives in Vestnes on the Romsdal Fjord.” John Isaacs and Amy ventured to Mount Princeton in Colorado with their two adult children and three dogs for their 50th anniversary. (“There is no Mount Dartmouth!”) Bruce Chasan and Barabra Stratton spent time “in Grasse, France, a week in Tenerife in the Canary Islands, a week in Barbados, and a week in St. Maarten. Still lawyering but squeezing in as much travel as I can while I am still on the right side of the soil.”

Ora McCreary and Dan Bloom recently celebrated two major milestones on the same day: the 50th anniversary of the day they met and the 12th anniversary of their marriage; Ted Haynes published his fifth murder mystery; Al Hine survived visits from his Aunt Helene and Uncle Milton in Tampa Bay, Florida; and Hal Maskiell “continues to fail at retirement” and is still training pilots and flight instructors at Epic Flight Academy in New Smyrna Beach, Florida.
