great help Melva my dear niece whom I love. Now all we need is for Melva to come to the reunion. The Woods Fam. will be 1960’s. Hippy era. Yeh. Hope you can make it. I made a list years ago but yours is great. Thank you so much. See you at the reunion. After all the property is named after you “Melva Park”. love aunt Avonell
Thanks for responding to my entry, Aunt Avonell. I try to come every other year as there is something that occurs at the same weekend. My next two Tuesday blogs will also touch upon things to consider for reunions. For camping, these two entries may interest you as well.
