This is the first restaurant that we have scheduled a second time. Everyone really enjoyed the food last time we went there in March. Please come and join us for a nice visit and chatting time and good food. Hope to see you there.

You will pass Cedarville Rt, Mattawoman Beantown Rd, Pinefield, and when you get in the heart of Waldorf, you will see signs to turn left to follow Rt. 5 to So. MD, there will be a Best Buy on the right, Checkers on the left, turn right at this light Rt. 228, get in your left hand lane, go past Red Robin on your left and turn at the next light, Western Parkway, stay in your left lane and turn left into the shopping center, Mimi's in in the front of the shopping center. It is brightly colored. See you on Thursday. Mike, glad you can make it, see you at Mimi's.

Dave Kipple, Anita Goodale, Cherie Martin, Timmy and Bonnie Maines, Mike Greene, Pat Young, Barb and Butch Essig, me, Nancy Purks. The food was good but the conversation and laughter were the main events of the luncheon, come and join us soon.

I have the feeling there is lots more we could share but rush hour was approaching and of course some of us got caught in it. I don't know how soon I can get back since I'm 10 years away from retirement! I learned that the part of Forest Heights where I lived (before moving to Kerby Hill) was known as the rich section. That was a surprise, little tiny houses attached to another. Those were the last two houses I ever lived in. I moved up (in elevation) ever since then. It was really nice meeting yesterday and there was room at the table for one more (who was missing, ummmmm).

I think that is why I loved the 60th birthday bash so much - we really got to sit around and chat with each other. Relive old moments at OHHS and our youth and where life has taken us since. It was such a special event. I would like to encourage any of our classmates or Clipper for that matter to attend the monthly meeting. Doesn't matter if you "hung" with any of these people in school or not. All are welcomed and encouraged to come have fun with at the Monthly Lunch Bunch. Lonely in Arizona

dfifeaz 808 posts Jul 18, 2008 3:27 PM	Thanks for the hug but were are the pictures. I guess I need to train someone back there to do the shots since I can't be there. Just put up the link of the June pictures. I am glad you all had a great time. Gus Perrotta was talking to me about another OHHS guy that has been married quite a few times. Gus said him and Sue (Caposella) had been married 30+ years (can't remember the exact number)and just couldn't understand the problem. Told him Jack and I have been married 42 years, Barb and Butch 41, Cherie Martin and Buddy 42 years etc. The common domoniator - this fellow had never married an OHHS gal. lol Last Edited on 18-Jul-2008 3:28 PM
