After the presentations, some of the attendees
gathered for supper at Broadway Grill.
It was great to catch up with fellow Canucks
Doug and Jean Denby.

in Unionville, Ontario in 2005

Sue-On and her pal-in-crime (shopping) Shirley
Le Beau.
Always fun conversations with Shirley and
Ray Le Beau...
not only about ERB, but also their great collections
of trains,
Shirley's fabulous Xmas decorations, plants,
and of course, grandchildren!
Great to see faithfuls Bradleigh Vinson and
Pat Vinson bringing along two members of their family!
We are hoping that Pat was able to manage
some of her famous grape jelly for the BB auction.

say "Soll-ly."
