Looney Family Reunion 2009

Uncle Willie sent me an email asking that I remind everyone the next Looney Family Reunion will be here soon. This is the gathering we have every other year for the descendants of Hub Looney and John Looney. Here are the particulars for this year’s gathering:

Date: September 26, 2009 Time: Noon Place: Fishtrap Dam

Patsy and Clint Belcher usually bring enough fish for every body. If everyone else brings a dish it should all come together.

Here are some photos and observations from past reunions:

• Patsy Belcher serves as the master of ceremonies, or ringmaster, or whatever it is you call the loudest person at the gathering who orders everyone around.
  
• Bart mans the deep fryer, when Patsy tells him to, and the fish is always delicious.
  
• Uncle Willie always brings Aunt Carolyn so she can lead the gossip sessions. I think she likes to lead the gossip so she isn’t the subject of too much of it.
  
• We all mingle and socialize until Patsy yells out that it’s “Time to eat”. It’s best to be standing close to the food when that happens.
  
• I try to be there to make sure too much food doesn’t go to waste.

Seriously, we always have a great time, the food is fantastic, we see old friends and get a chance to catch up on the lives of cousins we may not have seen in years. Mark your calendar and try to be there this year. You won’t regret it.
