Hey David, another birthday eh! Hope it is a happy one and all is well. I am planing to drive to California tomorrow. I'm worried about getting through southern Oregon especially Siskiyou Pass. Even the passes south of Roseburg are a problem in this weather.
Maureen, That is a very nice picture. Is that Kacie?
Gary, I enjoyed reading your update (7/12/11 ?) It made me remember meeting you in 6th grade. You were the first person that I met who could run faster than me! Then I remembered the rather poor camp-out adventure in the hills above Carlmont -- embarrassing.
I hope life is being good to you.
Hey George, are you sure you don't have birthdays come twice a year? Wow, another year went by... Well I hope your are having a real good birthday today.
Hi Dave. Here I am socially late wishing you a happy birthday. I'm just thinking about communicating with someone other than family who I have known for 70 years. Well here's hoping you have many more (birthdays that is). David
Happy Birthday George! I want to say it is scary that another year went by so fast, but I then I realized it is SUCCESS.
Hi Dave, Happy Birthday. Another years has rolled around. i assume you are still hiking the trails. I am recovering from a little lumbar surgery and doing well enough to be thinking I will be able to enjoy some of the hiking trails around my home (Oak Harbor). Take care and stay healthy.
David
Jerrylee, Happy Birthday. Boy, they keep coming around fast. The good part is we are here to enjoy them.
OK George, but I missed the birthday by a couple days. Like I indicated last year... time is sure skippin' by. Hope you have many more.
Hey Dave, happy birthday. I hope you are still out there hiking.

Hello Gerrine, we haven't made contact in I don't know how long. I remember you most from when we were in Mr. Van's class, eighth grade. Doug Mueller contacted me when he heard I was on Whidbey Island and I just sent a birthday message to Dave Wing. My wife Helen and I moved to Whidbey Island in October of 2014 and moved into a new home a year ago. We still haven't completely unpacked -- mainly because we have been making frequent trips south (our youngest son, our daughter-in-law and our 29 month old grand son live in Ashland, OR.). We also make trip back to the SF area to visit friends, our other son and our boat. Now we plan to stay home for a few months. Maybe we can get some house projects finished. I still have a boat down in Antioch. It's too big to ship via truck so I plan to bring her up the coast. I was going to do that last fall, but it got too late and the weather window turned bad. I hope to get her to Whidbey (or Fidalgo) some time this year. I have been reading posts on this classmate site; is there anything new about holding another reunion?
Hi Dave, Happy birthday. It's been a while since we communicated. Somehow back then we lost contact. My wife Helen and I moved into our home on Whidbey Island, January15, 2015. We still haven't completely unpacked -- mainly because we have been making frequent trips south. Now we plan to stay home for a few months. Maybe we can get some house projects finished. I still have a boat down in Antioch. It's too big to ship via truck so I plan to bring her up the coast. I was going to do that last fall, but it got too late and the weather window turned bad. I hope to get her to Whidbey (or Fidalgo) some time this year.
