Les and I went to the 7th and 8th grades together at Richmond Jr. Academy in Richmond
Virgina ... And an amazing coincidence ... we both graduated together from the 8th grade
there in 1956 and then we also graduated together from high school at SVA in New Market VA in
1960 ... and then again from Loma Linda University in 1968 ... Like I always told Butch in
the 7th grade ...(Butch) ... as we knew him then as a kid .. ("Butch .. stick with me Davey Boy
and I'll have you breaking wind through silk") .... Grin.
May 27th, Friday - Everything started with an impromptu dinner party at Les and Maggie's home
with 20 acres of vinyard in St. Helena CA, which I drove down for and stayed
the night, leaving very early for home the next morning to get ready for our big bash Sunday.
The home made pizza party started at 7:00 PM ... Les & Maggie have an outdoor
pizza oven ... Les builds a fire in it about 4 hrs ahead of time.
This is a view from Less & Maggie's home in S.F. up on Hyde St. about 4 blocks straight up above the bay & 2 blocks above Gary Danko's restaurant. Less, Maggie and a friend own the entire building with a full private garage on the first floor and great views from roof, balcony and garden. Becky and I went down for Less's 70 birthday party Maggie put on ... she reserved the entire Gary Danko's Restaurant ... For my 70th in 2013 Becky has already reserved a few tables at Denny's ... ;>)
