Map to Steve and Rose's house

Directions to Steve and Rose's house

Steve and Rose live at 8 Tierra Casa Drive, on Pueblo’s west side. Steve’s cell number is 719-248-6570 and mine is 719-428-9797. From the west, take Highway 50 east to Pueblo Boulevard. Turn right and go almost four miles south to Thatcher Avenue/Highway 96 (you’ll see the park on the left). Turn right and go about a mile west. As the road drops down the hill, you’ll see a sign for Stonemoor Hills on the left. Turn left on McCarthy Boulevard and go about half a mile. Turn left and you’ll see their house on the right. From the north, take Highway 50 west to Pueblo Boulevard, then follow the above directions. See you on May 9!

Reunion photos online

In case I missed e-mailing you yesterday, I've posted my favorite photos on Shutterfly.
Please let me know if you have photos you'd like to add or want copies of photos you see there.
Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to say how wonderful it was seeing you all. I think Marjorie, Rachel & Gene, Ronald & Doris would have been very pleased to see the family together. It should be a regular event.

Also wanted to say thanks to Carol & Mike for suggesting a get together & to Rhonda for making it happen. The photos & momentos are truly wonderful.

I plan to stay in touch with everyone & hope you do as well.


Love,

Bob

Less than two weeks to go . . .

I finally got around to checking on neighborhood copy shops and, sadly, none of them are open on Sundays. I'll bring the originals, so whoever wants photos can just take them to copy later and distribute to others who also want them.
Also, here's what I'll bring to the park:
watermelons and ginormous knife
trash bags (of course there are cans in the park, but who knows how often they're emptied)
toilet paper and Purell (restrooms nearby, but they may not have enough supplies)
insect spray and sunscreen
spare key to my apartment (in case anyone needs anything or wants to nap)
copies of:
a photo of my parents' headstone in Cripple Creek
Bea and Elmer's marriage license
Bea's obituary
a "narrative" my parents wrote in 1980
Plus, a whole bunch of the aforementioned photos
maps to nearby restaurants/fast food joints

Tent Rental

Hi Everyone,

After a conversation with Phil about time, cost, logistics and interest, it was decided that a tent for the reunion is not feasible this year. We'll rely on the years of good weather to come thru again-what could go wrong?



Love,

Bob

online photo album



Hi -
I picked up my mom's collection of photo albums on Sunday and really hit the jackpot with the Shugart Family one - lots of old photos I've never seen, and maybe it'll be the same for the rest of you.
I've scanned about 100 of them (oy!) and have them in an online photo album (click on "album" and it'll take you there).
I had been thinking I'd ask everyone what printouts they want, then I'd take copies to the reunion, but then I realized that would cost a lot. So I've decided I'll take the copies arranged on 8.5 x 11 printouts, and everyone can decide during the reunion what printouts they want. There are several copy shops not too far from the park and it wouldn't take very long to run copies. It's not ideal, but on the other hand, we'll have a great time looking through the printouts.
I may also put photos on CD for anyone who wants one, especially if you've got a long trip home and won't want to deal with papers.
Of course, I'll also take the originals (except of my dad) to the park and you siblings can decide who gets what. For a small fee, I'll "dispose" of certain photos with embarrassing hairstyles. Joke!
