On Friday September 29th at the West Vancouver Yacht Club several of us alumni gathered to celebrate the year in which most of us turned seventy. It was joyously attended and follows our get-together hosted by Nathalie (Beck) Gaglardi in her gorgeous garden. Yours truly did not attend but read the many congratulatory thank you notes from attendees who emphasized their appreciation of the venue and live music.

It’s lovely to see everyone celebrating their birthdays together and you all seem to be having a cery enjoyable time at the party. It’s a nice idea for all you guys to come together and share your birthdays. My dad will also turn 70 next week, and I’m organizing a surprise party for him at one of the best event halls for rent.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to see (still) familiar faces. Especially Barb Coles, Sue Beer, Bob Brownsword and Vic Vollrath! It's not really 4am - I live in Northern Ireland.
