I am so touched to by the tributes to Highland friends, often ones I didn't know.  My appreciation grows for our school era and the shared values that surface at these sadder times.  Friendships are treasures indeed.

Did you save the date?  Next Monday is our luncheon date—July 8 at 1pm!  We are going to a recommended restaurant—Neo Szechuan Asian Kitchen at 7200 Montgomery Blvd NE, Suite F2 in Louisiana Plaza.  It is on the south side of Montgomery halfway between Louisiana and Pennsylvania.  In fact, it is next door to our last lunch at J’s Var B Q!  The menu is varied and full, even offering smoothies and mochi ice cream—-if you like to start with dessert.  (I tasted the orange chicken, and, yes, I want more!). Please RSVP here or to me privately, mentioning if July is your birthday month! 
    We had 25 for lunch last month, enjoying the rare company of Merl Schafer and Kati as well as Jim Bob Payne. Furthermore, Gloria's homemade candy was So-o-o good! Thanks, birthday girl!  Enjoy the memories:

LUNCH:  We’re going Irish this month at O’Niell’s Pub!  We will meet at 1pm next Monday Aug. 12 at 3301 Juan Tabo NE (on the west side of the street between Candelaria and Comanche).  They offer a tasty side dish I’ve never heard of—poutine.  Those of you who frequent O’Niell’s can advise me.  Leave your RSVP here.  Birthdays will be celebrated, if you let us know.
    Last month we had 25 people enjoying wonderful Chinese dishes served on the biggest lazy-susans I’ve ever seen. Take a look at the pictures below.  (And think about coming to lunch next Monday.)
