| We met up at the Nashville Christian Church. Our daughter and her husband came in from Little Rock and joined our group. To the left is a scan of the Farmhouse dating back a good many years. The house is currently unoccupied and seems likely to stay that way. Most of us got chiggers and ticks from the exploration. I hadn't had any chiggers for a long time. Not my favorite form of nostalgia. The church is in excellent shape and is used by the surrounding area as a community center. We spent a lot of time at the cemetery. This is the only cemetery I went to. Dale and Cathy and Julie, Dorothy and Bud had more cemeteries to go to however. Eventually we split up at the church and Dale and Cathy went to Lamar and then to Texas and the other group went to Pittsburg and then to Moskogee. The Nashville cemetery pictures are on a separate page. Pat and I went back to Neosho with our daughter and met up with Howard, Helen, and Lon at our motel. Lon's house had survived the flood. We set up the computer and went through the various photographs and the scans Julie had done the day before. Lon decided to get a room at the motel and we went out to dinner. Everybody agreed to meet at Shoney's in the morning. See July 6, 2007, Family 2007, Nashville Cemetery, More Pictures, Reunion Scans |
 "I was glad to get the picture of the house – with the good shot of the hitching posts. It brought memories – as kids, a lot of our play time was on that rod. We would turn over and over on it, challenging who could go around the most times. I remember we would really get dizzy, but we thought we were having fun!" Mi;dred Rehklau

The hitching posts are close together and the pole is gone entirely

 It can be pretty, but there are chiggers in the brush |

 No trip complete without a picture of post office

 Aunt Em's house - occupied, but real tough looking

 These Neosho motels have a bathtub in the bedroom. Beats the galvanized tub of my youth, which was set up in the kitchen as I recall. I was young then. |
