Fox reunion
Our target leaving time was 9:30. We were pretty close. Dale and 2 boys drove the red van and the rest of us rode in the tan van. We met David at Rufus's house. Dale and one boy left, while Dave took the other with him. Dave and Gwenda drove to Tim's house. Between Gwenda's van and Tim's van we all were able to go to the reunion. We arrived about 12:15. We parked at the pavillion at the top of the hill. Everyone was setting out food and tablecloths. The president, Ken, welcomed everyone, and said a prayer. Then we ate. Donna joined us. I was able to give her the Korean sign language book I got at the thrift shop. She is an expert in ASL. After lunch, Gwenda took the kids aside for kids games, while we adults had a short business meeting where we voted for all officers to remain in office. Then the adults played bingo. When bingo was over, I got out my kite. I tried to fly it, then Kurt took over. Ken thought I played a dirty trick on Kurt, getting him to run on a hot day. After a while we got the idea to take a pic of all the cousins. And then one of cousins and spouses. We weren't a complete set, but more than have been there in years. The food was still out so we had a snack, then cleaned everything up and loaded the cars. We headed out to Kurt's place. We'd hoped to arrive before dark. But stopped along the way at a grocery store. Finally at Kurt's 14x21 little house, we had to arrange sleeping quarters for 5 people. Kurt had 4 cots and Dad elected to sleep in the back of the station wagon. We are currently trying to get everyone online so they can do whatever so we can all go to sleep. Kurt will be getting up 5 to be at work by six.
