2006 OCEANO REUNION

15 JULY 2006: A multi-class reunion for the Oceano Elementary School "kids" from the '40's & '50's is planned for the Oceano Depot on July 15, 2006. A bar-b-q is in order. More info and specifics as they become available. Mark your calendars and plan to attend. More info also will be posted on the Message Board at classmates. Here's the url: http://group.classmates.com/user/mboard/?group_id=2218610&type=hs. Classmates changed their rules for a time and did not allow basic members to view photo albums but they fairly quickly saw that was going to be a big mistake so they changed the rule back again.
23 JUN 06: Well, Classmates may be about to outsmart itself. There are other, even better sites coming on line now where you can post photos and that are even better than classmates and that don't require a membership. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/jonsan/ As soon as I get the time and get better and quicker at it, I may move or duplicate all my classmates photo albums on to a site like flickr.com. It just doesn't pay to try to rip people off on these on line sites because just too much new and better stuff is coming on line every day.
15 JUL 06: Well, it's history. But it was great. Great weather. Great bar-b-q. Great company. I'll try to get more information on here later. The cooks put out over 250 plates and were looking for more so I don't know exactly how many were there but for a rinky-dink school in a podunk town, the turnout was stupendous!
15 AUG 06: Here are some good photos of the reunion: http://www.pictage.com/214796. Be sure to click on the "View all Images" link up in the top right area. I also put together a list of my "favorites" shown as "Jon's favorites". These just show people that I knew or went to school with. (I tried the "favorites" albums and they don't work well so it's best to use the "View all Images").
