Hello Ben.   sorry I missed the Reunion, it sounds as if it was another
wonderful gathering as usual, thanks to many, but especially Bob and
Mildred.  They are special people.
I will let nothing interfere with being  in Savannah in Aug.
Hello to all my 517 buddies!

Dad,

Our domain name registration  -- www.517prct.org -- expires in a month, so we need to renew it.  The cost is $15 per year, and we can renew for up to 9 years ($135).  

As I hope to keep the site going forever, in some form, should we renew for the max --  9 years?

We will renew it for 9 years.-Ben

     Hi Ben.  It was so good to see you and Jeff and his friend at the Mini".  As usual, the Christies did as Dick Seitz would say, " an outstanding" job organizing, feeding, and making all of us feel welcome.    Headquarters Second had a good group.   Helen and Hal Beddow had an opportunity to give us their plans for the Savannah Reunion.  Another Seitz  '"Outstanding".     The idea of a 517 auxiliary really sounds great---both young women and men to  carry  on   the   tradition.    Small footnote-   Jim was the second President of the Association from 1973-1975 . Imagine, 30 years ago,  I bring his silver cup each time we meet and we drink a toast to all the men of Hdqr. Second who are no longer with us.   See you in Savannah!

Thanks Ben. brought up the roster.  We are fine.
Finally rested. We drove home in 3 days. 12 hrs the
last day, Sat. But when we hit north TX, it was too
close to home not to plow ahead. Wanted to sleep in
our own bed.  Did not really get to visit with you.
Had a friend from AZ send pictures of the snow in
Boston. It was pretty to look at, but I am sure you
could have done with less. We were suppose to get 5"
of snow Tues & Wed. But I all the weather people in OK
were wrong. Thank goodness. Thanks again for the help.
.  Love, LOU
