We had old friends who checked into Waterway Family campground – we called the McBrides and we all met at Inlet View bar and grill.
INLET VIEW – on the ICW – outside of Shallott – N.C.
Paul and Janet Brown are from Eldred Pa. and I have known them
as we all graduated from the same H.S. – Otto-Eldred.
Paul – Sherry and I and his brother Jim all worked for American Olean Tile in Olean, N.Y.
Paul – Jim and I all played softball together in the mid-’70s.
Conversing in the parking lot – Paul and Buck – Cindy and Janet and Sherry.
Paul and Janet have known Cindy and Buck McBride for years and years – we all are old friends.
Trying to get a group picture while looking directly into the sun was not working out!
After dinner – we found a place to take a group photo –
but the bright sun was brutal!
Finally – a very nice lady who was standing on the top deck –
said she would come down and take the picture.
She walked all the way down from the third floor – bless her!
Paul – Janet – Cindy – Sherry – Papa – Buck
We have a core group of friends that go back to the late ’70s –
We try to get together over the years – now we live only 35 minutes from Buck and Cindy
and we try to play golf once a week with them.
Jim and Dottie are in Va. Beach and Paul and Janet are still in Eldred
but now are retired and RV in Florida.
They were kind to find a place nearby and camp for two nights
allowing us all to get together – we miss you, Jim, and Dottie!
Not saying goodbye – but until we meet again – old friends – retired – enjoying life to the plus.
