Mobil NECC Reunion

I worked at Mobil in Princeton for many years and was volunteered to organize the 2005 Reunion of NECC (Mobil's NorthEast Computer Center). On May 1, we had a pleasant get-together at Winberies in Princeton's Palmer Square. The photo below is courtesy of Mel Callahan. The actual photo is much better quality - I reduced the file size so you wouldn't have to wait forever for it to download to your PC.


Clockwise starting in the shadows on the left are Brian Callahan, Bob and Nancy Swierczek, Mel Callahan, Valorie Budelis, Linda McDermott, Giulio Solia, Carole Umscheid, Jerry McDermott, John Sawyer, Pete Gerster, and myself. Doris Wert joined us when she was able to get away from her church. I wish I could have readily satisfied those who wanted to come but had schedule conflicts. Giulio Solia was volunteered to organize the next reunion.

KDB's Next School Trip - Photography Contest

About two weeks after KDB's return from India, she was off on another school trip. This time it was for a photography exhibition in Chicago. KDB won a prize in the exhibition. In another contest with results posted on-line, she won a prize for her "Rock & Leaf" entry. And, last night she won a prize in the House of Representatives' contest for our Congessional District. In fact, after the awards, she had offers from two parties wanting to purchase her entry. She is a budding photographer.
