Feliz cumpleaños. A banana a day will keep you youthful (especially green ones). See you at the 2026 reunion. Even our green ones get ripe in a hurry.

Wife, Karen, and I met up with Michele Day in Barcelona for a mini-RHS reunion/holiday. Barcelona--what a great city. The three of us then headed to visit Munich, staying with a mutual friend. Lots of rain in Munich, but managed to include some great music and memorable events.

RHS Class of '66 International Subgroup Reunion. The International Subgroup holds its COVID-belated reunion with 100% attendance at registration. Michele Day, Don Davis and his spouse, Karen, are attending the reunion in Pezenas, France, home of Ms. Day. A Welcome Lunch kicked off the reunion on Saturday, followed by a field trip on Sunday to the nearby Les Grottes de Clameuse caves and then to St. Guilleum founded in the 800s. The first day completed with a brief tour of the ancient city of Pezenas followed by a gourmet BBQ dinner. Second-day activities included a Monday visit to the seaside salt flats, and winetasting at Chateau Ricardelle. Tuesday is a seaside oyster luncheon and an afternoon pitanque tournament. Wednesday is a surprise free day. The reunion comes to an end with closing ceremonies and a Farewell Luncheon on Thursday in Beziers.
