Sean Connaughton sends a happy report:
On February 18, 2023, I had the honor to attend the wedding of Lee Forsgren’s son Chris at the Ritz Carlton, Pentagon City in Virginia. Attached is a photo of Lee, his wife Janet, son Chris and new daughter in law Sarah. See you in September!
Carrie and I are enjoying a quick trip out to Sunny SoCal (not so sunny this week) for some work and pleasure.
We had the PLEASURE this morning of joining CAPT. Mark Coynes out on one of Jacobsen Pilots new boats “Orion” for a ride. Always enjoyable spending time with Mark, especially on the water.!!!
Bruce Garrott sent photos of a couple of his 2022 trips:
We became Pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James) last May, at the end of an eleven-day bike trip. The cathedral in Santiago de Compostela is in the background. Debbie and I rode significantly more than the 200 Km minimum, as we started near the French border, north of Pamplona. The other photo was taken at Omaha Beach, in late August. We were on a Backroads bike tour of Normandy and Brittany. That is a beautiful part of France, and they still remember what our nation did for them, 79 years ago. If anyone is interested in that KP bike jersey, please reach out to me at . I intend to place another order this summer.
Craig Ellixson posted photo to our Facebook group, “Representing whilst day trippin a coupla local parks. Pre big game meant little-to-no bodies on the trails or traffic on the roads.”
Speaking of Facebook, a wonderful classic photo was posted of an unofficial senior year event!
Mickey Cunningham reports that our September Reunion plans are moving forward, thanks to great participation. Reminder for you to check our KP83.org website for updates and to confirm and pay for Friday icebreaker and other activities as soon as possible. As of this column time, details still being worked out for our Saturday tailgating and dinner on Academy grounds.
Ray Christensen thanks you as always for your column contributions and I look forward to seeing most of you in September. I wonder if a certain famous painting might still be hanging in the Elliot M. See room while we are partying in Wiley Hall?
