Jim & Alice LaPeer

Mary DeYoung, Alice LaPeer, Lisa Gunnett

This happy trio of old friends is having a grand time celebrating during the Reception at Boulder Creek Country Club after Mary & Joel's Wedding Jan 31, 2009. The guys couldn't get a word in edge-wise, so they gave up trying and went back to get some more food; Jim was out looking for pop cans to help pay for the wedding.

Joel, Mary and I went down to Biloxi, MS for Tom's Air Force Weather School Graduation in June, 2009. While there, we spent a very enjoyable afternoon with an old Family Friend (Darryll Barksdale) from Alice & Jim's, Bossier City, Louisiana days... This picture shows us having lunch at the Beau Rivage Resort & Casino. (Dr.) Darryll still owes me 327 cups of coffee from Sambo's restaurant.

Four Families... Ross, Baker, Owen, LaPeer... in Yellowstone N.P.

On the way to "the Road to Red Lodge, Montana"... July 2009, we stopped to view some Buffalo. There we encountered National Park Rark Ranger Mike Ross just coming back in from the back country. He had just loaded his horse into his trailer and paused to chat with our Vacation group of families. A truly nice & friendly man that represented his service in the best possible manner...
