Dinner at the Legion - Pictures from Barb Wersen

I am going to quote her "sweet" little note that she sent with the pictures.  Soooooo Barb!  


"Hi Ruby - I realize any other person would send these as attachments, but you will have to scan & send them as I am "technically challenged" & don't care or apologize.  Happy Sending!  Love, Barb"

So - in no particular order, the pictures sent by Barb follow!  Thanks, Barb, and it was great to see you.
