1969 Gail and I went to wrestling ($4) with Don, Shelby and Zahn at Mpls Auditorium. We kept getting kicked out of the good seats until we finally end up in our cheap seats. Don had a bag of peaches for throwing at the ring.
1971 Grog party at my place with Jo, Suli, Kiti, Solo, Kori and Lenati. I played them the Cassius Clay interview tape. They sang songs and we talked about rugby until 1AM.
Kitione
1979 Keep Fit night class for the first time. Elaine Findlay, Kathleen Taylor, Tracy Roisetto, Jenny Blomendahl I knew. Laps, exercises, weights, tennis, volleyball and basketball.
1981 Su - St. Rita's for first time. Mass in auditorium where Father Rowan rambled through his homily beginning with "Prince and the Pauper" and went nowhere with it. Met him in his office afterwards and he redid the same census that he did at our house! Jim Hoffsis called to shoot the breeze. Lunch at Woody's for the first time. Child menu stapled onto coloring book and provided with crayons to keep kids occupied while waiting. Very popular and crowded.
1986 Sa - Simpsons stopped in with a page from Vienna phone book containing "Lieb" with one Hedwig listed. Regaled us with tales from their 10 week Kon-Tiki tour of Europe. Graeme, Lyn and Andrea S over for a meal, visit.
1989 Brought a lounge chair to Leszek's at lunch and Beata loves it as she now has something comfortable to sit on.
1991 Since Joyce's vacuum isn't repaired (7 weeks now) Colleen brought hers down and stayed for coffee and 10 cigarettes. Some trouble, but we found the Moose Lodge where we had fish combo with Collins, Peggy and Chuck Novak.

1992 Hunua Falls (spectacular after the big rainfalls) with Whites. I climbed to the top of the falls (more photos and video). Doug and little David arrived when we reached home and they stayed for a while. Barbecue for supper, then bridge.
1997 Sa - Day 75 of our 3 month journey around the world. See Arizona Photo Journal and Utah Photo Journal.
2004 Our very first answer phone message - Gail, who arrived safely and has met up with Inez already.
2016 T - Stayed up until 3AM to watch first Vikings game in the new U.S. Bank stadium. Emergency quarterback led them to a win over Green Bay Packers (highlights). Countdown now giving 5% discount to SuperGold on Tuesday, so off I went to save $5.
