These BBQs are a wonderful way of keeping up our mutual contacts and friendships over the summer months when a lot of flying is being done. Our thanks and congratulations are due to Wally and Sandy Norris. The thanks refer to a really splendid party/corn boil which they hosted at their home in Valencia on September 8. The congratulations refer to the fact that Wally and Sandy were celebrating their 45th wedding Rob Prior Rob Prior Left: Gogi with one of his many completions, a Druine Turbi.
