Gang dinner...

Dinner with the 40 or so rels and friends that gathered in Billings was great fun. This is grinning Jen from Rhode Island, who completed the Boston marathon this summer and also won a silver medal in the Montana Marathon a couple of weeks ago. Her cousin, Kyle, is wearing a bib for his huge rack of barbecued ribs that he's sharing with his Mother, Mimi. He's came up from Palm Springs; Mimi is over from the Seattle area. So a gathering of the clan from coast to coast came off beautifully...and it was all in the memory of a little Norwegian named Gertrude.
