2007 Class of '72 Bonfire

Most of the group - including non-classmates.


Some folks had left by the time this picture was taken.


The Long and the Short of this year's bonfire - Helen & Tim.




Some of the quiet girls: Sandy, Helen and Vicky!









Sandy Bryant Wieckhorst, Rich Hendrix, Helen Downing Eyers, Harold Schaaf, Sheri Dyer Shoff, Tim Golden, John Walker - behind Tim, Kathy Kruckeberg Zakrewski, Stan Zakrewski.


Marsha Kilmer Ackerman, Wil (Boyd) Eubanks (it was his birthday), Bill Patton, Gordon Kivett, Vicky Lewis (in the back), Sara Harrop Kivett, and Dan Collman.

Somehow, Gordon got hold of the reunion van keys and crashed into the bonfire.

Thankfully, no one was seriously injured. At one point, we thought we heard Officer Deb sending someone to investigate but they went to a party behind John's house instead.

P.S. Yes, it's true we burned the Reunion Van and I'm sorry that seemed to upset some of you.
HOWEVER, The Van served it's purpose well and would not have withstood another transport.
We salute you, CMHS Class of '72 Reunion Van.
And, as Dr. Steve would say, Onward!

I was wondering if I needed to try to put a little black censor square over that area - apparently, it was needed after all.

It looks like some crack spackle was needed at the Bon fire...hehehe. Tim, you crack me up with your observations.

Luckily for all the FULL MOON was still a couple of weeks away. Thanks for the pictures. Hopefully, I'll get to see everyone another time.

Hey Sara, maybe suspenders shouldn't wait 'till Christmas.LOL
Really, you can't blame Gordon, he told us ALL about this problem with his jeans.

HILARIOUS!
I am sorry that I missed the show, both the fire and the attire. Looks like you all had a good time. Nice to see pics of Vicky and Bill, too.

After looking through the pics that have been posted, I realize there were a few of you that I didn't get to talk to. I can only guess at what the reunion must have been like, with so many more people to see. I promise to do better, next year.

I'm surprised the van didn't burst into flames long before now, considering who was driving and all.

geez, can't slip anything past TJ.
Seeing Gordon,made me pine for Rusty from the old Designing Women show. (this will only be funny if you had nothing going on in the 80's and used those women as your moral, social and political gauge) I realize I could be alone in this.

Thanks for the pictures..great to see everyone!
