Calame Family Reunion July 2017

 My cousins organized an amazing family reunion in near Crescent City, California. On our way down we go to see my mom's good friend Jeanne in Roseburg. 





 It was fun to look at old pictures and reminisce. 
The picture below shows my Dad's siblings Gary, Byron, Barbara and center is Byron's wife Kathryn.
