2018 Reunion at the Double Tree in Tarrytown, NY
It was a beautiful week-end, made even more beautiful by the gathering of "old" friends at the Double Tree in Tarrytown. NY.
In total there were eighteen of us, including a couple of "kids" who brought their parents.
While some of you were not able to attend, be assured that you were there in spirit. You were included in our many stories ... and, OMG! did we have stories to tell. Not only did we stroll down memory lane. we talked about our lives. post-Castle Hill. There were a lot of laughs, perhaps some tears. but mostly an air of wonderment and happiness over the paths our lives have taken us and the events that brought us together for this magical week-end.
