The Reunion
Every good event needs a reunion, and this was no exception. At the end of July 2006 most of the group met Colleen and Ernie Berno in their new home on Christina Lake in British Columbia for a weekend of good company and good memories. What happens when you get a group of people who love to cook, drink and just have fun? Well it is a fun weekend for sure.

| We had many a great meals and times on the large deck of the Berno's new home on Christina Lake. Unfortunately, Ann & Chris Negati could not make the weekend. | ||
Stella Crampton and Carmen Grant making a "drink-run" from the dock to the house. |
Mike Arbogast was mastering his new video DVD recorder. |
Chris Grant and Geoff Crampton carry food back down the road. Carrying it on your head brought back memories of Chris' 2005 trip to Africa.

The "Berno House" is no little cottage! |
Colleen and Ernie retired in 2006, left Vancouver and moved to their beautiful new home they had built on Christina Lake in the interior of British Columbia. No little cottage. There was lots of room for us all!
Ernie and Colleen were superb hosts!

| The weekend came to a close, we had enjoyed a couple of days of great company, drink and food. Watching a DVD slide show of the Amalfi Event brought back the good memories. There was even talk of a Tuscany Event in the future! | ||
