    1. [WGS] GREAT REUNION
    2. Joyce Stewart
    3. Dear Cousins, I am home safe and sound from a another great reunion. As some of you read (Becky's email) my plane was delayed from take-off from Ohio because Air Force One was flying into Philly. There was no planes aloud to fly in or out there at the airport for awhile. Oh Well, I finally got there and it was great to see Becky and Shirley. I roomed with Connie all week and she likes expresso's. She fixed me one and expresso's are not for me. I will stick to my regular coffee. LOL We had lots of fun. It was great meeting Nancy and Ed Rawlings, the new cousins. Connie and I rode with them to the Historical Society but Connie went back with John And Kathleen. We, (Ed, Nancy and myself) kept on looking for stuff and we almost stayed to closing. LOL It was a neat place. Wished I could just live close to there to research when I want too. There is soooooooo much stuff. And one of the guys that works there is from KENTUCKY. He liked my accent. HA! HA! Nancy took pictures of some great stuff and Becky will let everyone know what all we found that day and in our other research. It was good to see Alice Neff and family again. Debbie has added two more or say three since Wales. She was pregnant while we was there. All three of her children are beautiful. Seeing Mayor Phillip again was absolutely great. Talking about our Wales trip and bringing up some of the memories on our trip was great. He told everyone that me and him was almost throwed out of the castle overthere. Everyone was impressed with him on our tour to Liberty Bell, Independence Hall and Betsy Ross house. Strangers was taking pictures of him. Becky had it set up so when we went to the Betsy Ross house he could surprise Elaine (the William Penn Lady)which is his good friend here in the states. She didn't know he was going to be here. She is a very sweet lady and it was really great meeting her. She even rode the bus with us to the Wynnestay and we had some extra time, so she gave us a tour through Philly. Well seeing the Wynnestay and Skip and Robert was special too. The refreshments was great too that the Welsh Society prepared for us. Of course there was lots of pictures taken with all the presentations that was given. On Saturday we went to the Marsh Creek Farm Park and had lunch there and to the The Uwchlan Meeting House, where Ida and Terry's family had attended back in the 1700's. Terry drove Joe D's van and so after we were done with the group thing, Terry, Joe, Ida, Connie (with her navigator Maggie) and me went on our way to find some old taverns. HA HA Their family owned them way back in the 1700's. They found the one they wanted to and they are getting information on some of the owners. It was great find for them. The banquet was great. The food was great and best of all being with all my cousins and seeing the ones I haven't seen for awhile was great. I have laughed so much this pass week. It was another fantastic reunion. Becky did, as usual, a spendid job. It was hard to say good-bye to her and to Connie yesterday. AND we got to meet Jerry (Becky's husband) and Richard (Becky's father). It was very special in meeting both of them. They were very sweet. Well cousins another reunion has come and gone. It was great, but it is always good to be back in my little home. I love all of you and will see you all next year. Love Joyce Gail

    3. Thanks Joyce Gail....I echo your comments....it was another wonderful reunion, with some new cousins to meet and greet. The variety of events and touring was just fine, and I always enjoy driving in the Pennsylvania countryside...it is just gorgeous with those rolling hills, woods, and old stone houses and barns.......very neat place! I always enjoy the people on these trips, and eating, driving and researching with them is half the fun of the trip! It was great to meet Ed and Nancy, Ed and Sharon, Alice and her family. And to get to see Gainor, Connie, Joyce Gail, Ida, Bob, Marcy, Janet, John and Kathleen,and Joe again was just great. We always have a really good time and take back some wonderful memories. I want to thank Becky once more for the super job of organizing and planning this trip....I don't think any of us really know how much work is involved and it goes on during the event. And husband Jerry is there all the time making sure it all happens. It was very nice to see Shirley again and to finally meet Richard........great family. Since I did not get to go to Wales, it was also a real treat to meet Mayor Phillip....he is a real hoot! And to see Elaina again was special...she is quite a lady! Thanks to all for making this another great trip and for being the special cousins that you all are!
