This is Monday evening. Reunion officially ended yesterday morning with breakfast at CoCo's. And it was a perfect long weekend - thank you everyone for coming. The California weather and the surf more than cooperated. I am sharing here a few images we collected, not many. Please send so I can post on this blog and maybe put together a collection. I know there were cameras.

Ed and Carolyn arrived the previous weekend to help with finishing touches - so we waited together for "cousins" to arrive. I am referring to everyone who came to our party as a cousin.
Thursday evening our ukulele groups preformed at the Huntington Beach Pier, the 5th Thursday this summer. Weekly there are over 100 strummers. Cousins showed up in support. We had a late dinner at Sandy's, a restaurant under the pier.
Friday afternoon Tom taught ukulele to anyone interested. Tom, Pat, Carolyn Ruth and Maureen - Tom's sister (the good sister).
Connolly family photos. Brian flew in from Portland that morning.
Family gathering at the ocean's edge. We had breakfast at Crystal Cove State Park. It is right on the water with lots of areas to walk and explore up and down the coast. The surf was high due to hurricanes. Someone told me they couldn't figure why we were driving about an hour through Orange County to go to breakfast. They figured it out.
Lifeguard stations being put away for the winter.

A little gathering in my studio.
Photos will be added as they arrive.
