Three Months from Today

Apparently no one is really blogging these days.  Facebook is the thing.  I guess I need to get a Facebook account for the sake of the Reunion.  August 26th is three months from today.  I have heard so little from folks that I keep wondering if this is really going to happen.  Then I remind myself that we have about $7000.00 dollars invested so far, so I guess it is true.  I am facing the end of another school year with some level of exhaustion.  I think of things that could be planned for the gathering at Twin Rocks to help us commune and get to know each other.  And then I think, well, maybe just getting there is all we need to do.  If anyone would like to suggest or implement any fun events, let me know.  Looking forward to a possible visit the week ahead of the Reunion with cousin Kris and Rick Heller.  Is anyone else thinking of coming in advance to visit Portland?  I think I hear an echo...

  1. Hey Sis...there are blogs that are busy and prosperous, but they require as much daily attention as your garden in an Oregon springtime. I suspect there are many of us recalcitrant Porter-Byrne folks who are not loquacious online. Thus the dusky descent of silence. Dust on the metaphorical microphone. Which is not to say that no one is listening...

  2. Susan-
    I think you have a lot of handy folks in the family who would help out, but we need some direction. How about for those of us "out-of staters", some ideas for activities we could help plan?

    My thoughts so far:
    kites on the beach
    hiking
    sketch/plein air sessions
    bon fire on the beach
    cheese factory tour- info online says this is hot-or-miss- from you locals, is this too lame?

  3. What a great weekend, Susan. Thank you for all the work you did. I am thinking--as I look at blogspot tools-- that this is not the best place to post up --"post op" pics and comments on this past weekend. I'll take a look at the FB page...that has better gallery space. But may need a different tool.

    Y'r brother.
