Dear Cousins, We also arrived back in Florida with lots of wonderful memories of the Reunion. Becky, thanks for the great job of organizing another reunion of our "family". It was nice to see everyone, and we especially enjoyed meeting Ed & Nancy, as well as Jerry, Shirley & Richard. The bus tour was very interesting, and fun. Lunch was delicious. We enjoyed Elaina being our charming & knowledgeable "tour guide" through downtown Philadelphia. It was good to see Mayor Phillip again, and Eddie was glad to get to meet him. He is FUN! The Wynnestay "tea" was nice with the Mayor's office and the Welch and Welcome Society's included in the festivities. We so enjoyed driving through the PA rolling countryside and seeing the stone homes and barns. Our extra tour of Valley Forge with Merle, Joan and Sara was especially interesting. What great company. Our weather was perfect too. It was great to get together with so many nice cousins. Ahoy, Sharon & Eddie -------------------------------------------------- From: <wynne-genealogy-society-request@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, September 27, 2010 9:20 PM To: <wynne-genealogy-society@rootsweb.com> Subject: WYNNE-GENEALOGY-SOCIETY Digest, Vol 5, Issue 211 > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
