What A Party!

Headed to Pt. Pleasant, WV today for the Regatta tonight.

Enjoyed a terrific 4th of July with the fine people of Alderson, WV. What a fireworks display! Many of the ground level light displays are custom made by residents of the area. There was a touching tribute to the victims of the Virginia Tech massacre. Big crowd, big show, big fun. Thanks to Mark and all the fine people in Alderson.

From there we headed to Rainelle, WV for an all-class reunion of the high school. I don't think I've seen a more enthusiastic crowd anywhere in the country. I can't imagine what they must have been like during their high school days in the 50's and 60's! That must have been one rockin' town. Thanks to Andy and all the reunion committee for the terrific hospitality. You will have surely spoiled us.

We hope to see everyone from the Alderson and Rainelle area again soon at the State Fair of West Virginia August 13-19.

Time to hit the road. Re "gatta" go now.
