Ann did all the name tags...check them out as you browse the pics!
Come early to set up the tables and you get more chatting time!
Paula flew in from NYC. She is hoping her Broadway gig is still there when she returns.
My photo skills need upgrading, but you can see the fun is already starting.
Check out Ann's name tag, complete with photo from the Astrum. Notice her wrist. The green bracelets were sent by Jean who, we are sad to report, could not come.
We decided to not decorate and then these tasteful autumn leaves showed up. Nice touch, don't you think?
Kudos to Elizabeth for getting Ric out of the field! 
I think my husband needs to upgrade his photo skills, also. Looks like Mike, Dan, Carole, and Larry. Notice the name tags! Brent Anderson, Class of '66 and spouse of Cathy, is on the right.
Goodness, blurry isn't it? Margaret, Brent, and Dan, I think.
Jim and Marjie Earl...first time at the reunion and the most grandchildren. However, no prizes were given.
Dan, Cathy, Ron, Larry, Carole, and Larry's wife Diane.
Pam's husband, Jerry Russell, and Tom Harlan
Nina, and the Pams
We had a table of memorabilia: photos and old Astrums. I think that may be what Nina, Shirley, Brad, Dan, and Pam are checking out.
Marjie Earl and Elaine
Cathy, Brent, and Carole
Gary and Pam
Jo and Ann....notice again the green bracelets and photo nametag.
Mike with Carole Smith
Jo and Maureen...I see Keith and Mike in the background.
Don with Gary Davison
Carole Smith...Parrothead, oops, Dennis in the background
The Susies...bracelets, nametags and the ubiquitous libation of the evening
Ditto
Pat and Ann
Margaret and Elaine
Margaret, Elaine, and Joyce who dashed in from an earlier engagement.
Ronn Dillavou, Class of '66. Notice his left hand. He had been sent to the car to get Pam's baton. I actually know someone from Maine who carries her baton in her trunk just in case someone asks her to twirl. Here's evidence that it can happen at anytime!
Dan...this may be my best photo, I think. We've known each other since kindergarten.
Dan, of course, and someone else who is not a classmate.
Pat...this is the best photo of a nametag. You can even notice the difference 40 years makes in the color of one's hair.
She seemed to make do, but before the next reunion, will someone freeze up a batch of marguerita mix for Paula?
Great to see Don taking time out from his cars.
Carol
Nina and Shirley
Susie and Pam
Jerry and Pam 
Pam
We took a group photo before chowing down. These folks insisted on their own. Will they ever get over having to come to Aledo to school? The Seaton bunch!
The next several photos were taken while we were posing for the group photo. The names of entire group are listed at the end. Lots of photos were taken...hopefully, someone has a really good one. None of these will make the Times Record.

Linda Douglas sent me copies of my photos that she had touched up a little...brightened for one thing. I am learning so much! If you thought you had red eye before, keep checking. I am trying to improve some of the photos. Linda, thank you!
Jo....Just returned from Romania and wanted to tell you that I finally took time one evening to read through your blog covering our class reunion....My, you have been busy....I enjoyed it very much and do thank you for putting this together....It will certainly provide us an opportunity to keep up with everyone in our class...It seems that the older I get, the more important it is to touch bases with people and circumstances in our past. I would like everyone that's interested to be aware of my website that I would welcome them to visit. It will keep them informed of my ministries worldwide....www.jimearlministries.com. I would welcome hearing from anyone there.....Again Jo, I am very thankful to you for the effort that you have put into your blog....Jim
I used to wonder how I got lucky enough to end up in a class without any homely girls. You ladies made it very difficult to concentrate on school work.
