My long time friend (as I'm still reticent about calling ourselves 'old') lived and grew up in the NE and witnessed those wonderful Autumns although he tells me that they were short lived. So I thoroughly enjoy the spectrum of Autumn colors of the sweet gum trees that line so much of the streets of our Northwest cities which often last a month or longer. Right now we live and among and around the corridors of sweet gum trees with the rustic reds, yellows and vivid greens all on the same tree that line the streets. I have taken numerous pictures but capturing what the eye sees and experiences is often more difficult than I originally thought, so now the memory has to do. In any case, David, I wish you and your family many wonderful memories of the Fall in the Northeast. -Diane AVEDOVECH ('56) *************************************************************** *************************************************************** >>From: Margaret EHRIG Dunn ('61) Judy WILLOX ('61) Pat DORISS Trimble ('65) Betti AVANT ('69) Re: All Bomber Lunch ~ aka Patti's All Bomber Lunch To: All Richland/Col-Hi Bombers It is time again for our monthly lunch for all Bombers and friends, spouses, or tag-alongs.

It was a drugstore recommended by some friends who had lived there when he was in the Navy... doubt there are many drugstore diners left; Densow's Drug had one when I first worked there in high school!! I hope to make it to see the leaves in New England in fall color one year too!!!! A girlfriend is coming back here next week, and I am hoping for some fall color here as we go to Abraham Lincoln's birthplace and homestead in Kentucky, and the Falls of the Ohio on the Ohio Eiver where Lewis and Clark began their epic journey!! -Helen CROSS Kirk ('62) ~ Hope, IN where we had a beautiful sunny cooler day yesterday for the Alzheimer's Walk! *************************************************************** *************************************************************** >>From: Leoma COLES ('63) To: Donna NELSON ('63) About your note of being at the Oregon coast...

DAVID JOSEPH RIVERS meant immanent death... or worse... anyone else remember that? Funny thing is, I never... never heard the b-day Bomber's mom call him by anything less than his entire name plus a suffix! No matter how mad my mom got did she ever add II to my name... either this kid was always in really big trouble or his mom just liked the sound of his full and complete name... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Harvey Hershel IRBY, Jr. on your special day, October 6, 2015!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!! -David RIVERS ('65) *************************************************************** *************************************************************** That's it for today.
