2007 Family Reunion

The Kennemer crew gathered with the Canos (good friends and neighbors from Killeen) at Vallecito Lake outside of Durango, CO for our family reunion - we totaled 38 people. Some of the crew arrived on Friday, 7/13 (John, Tracy, and Rachel Kane and Kathy Kane; Frank Sr., Frankie, Tricia, Joey, and Katy Cano). Saturday morning the Kanes and Canos decided to head to Mesa Verde; Frank, Betsy, Grady, and Nathan Roth approached from Cortez and we met up at the National Park and then headed to Durango for grocery shopping. Sunday the 15th, Pat, Kathy, Sydney, and Christopher joined us (they camped with their RV just down the road and arrived Saturday night) for a quiet day at the Lake and the Lodge. On Monday, the remaining crew arrived in shifts: Cheryl and Shorty Giacomazzi drove down from Fort Collins with Grady and Mary Clare Kane; Russ Kane drove from Denison with Myra and David; John picked up Cindy Kane and Chris Giacomazzi from the Durango Airport; Andy and Norma Kane drove down from Parachute with Donald, Christopher, and their cousin Sean; and Gregg, Sami Jo, Rory, and Jo Ellen drove from Lockwood. The last to arrive were Joann Scattini with Lynette and Heidi Hurley. We had a great time enjoying the swimming pool, fishing at the lake, four-wheeling in the mountains, playing cards, visiting, and eating - we always manage to eat! The Roths and Johnsens hosted Breakfast and Dinner each day. Where should we go for 2009? It's never too early to plan the next event!
