It was great to see you and Ellen  at our mini Gamble reunion in Vegas.  We appreciated Buddy and Susan Valdez allowing us to use their condo at the Marriott as a meeting place. We were all surprised to learn that Sam and Julie Skramstad were leaving for a scuba diving vacation on The Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Gene Stephens and Cathy were leaving for Florida the following week to attend a friend's wedding--A very active group of  seniors .

It was a good week for all of us--attended some terrific shows--some guys played golf-- some just shopped, but the best days were spent  reminiscing about the time we shared at Gambles and the many markets and trips we attended together and the friendships it created.

Our favorite [ for Marietta and me ] was the trip to Rome with Jerry Eveslage as our tour guide--anyone there will remember  the Toga Party where we were all coerced into wearing togas..All  were photographed  and we didn't realize how stupid all looked until the  next morning  when we found the photos  on rhe walls of the lobby in the hotel.[ they were  all purchased in a few minutes just to get them out of sight] 

Look forward to seeing you on June 14th
