KHS65 member's FATHER's VETERAN STORY CHECK IT OUT!
If you've been reading the blog for awhile, (hint - click "older posts" at the bottom of the page) you'll see we hear from Linda Stevens, a Viet Nam era Army Nurse, from time to time. She has led an interesting life - it appears to be hereditary. Please go here to read a great story about her father's belated Silver Star, complete with great photos. If you would like to correspond with Linda, please let me know and I'll send her your email address. She's really a great correspondant, THANKS again Linda for sharing! Maybe you should do your own blog, you could do a post a day about something interesting in your life!!! It's a great way to keep a diary of sorts or tell your life story a bit at a time.

Bob O'Neill Rides a Wheel of Fame
Check out our own Bob O'Neill, a man of oh so many talents and interests. Go here to see his latest adventure. I tried to get over there, but just couldn't finish elsewhere in time. Sorry Bob I wanted to see it! Is it still up somewhere? Let me know where if so!
I love it when our KHS65 pals make the papers! Congrats Bob for the PR and for the wonderful project. Do you know what they teach budding mechanical engineers at MIT? You guessed it, a class on building with LEGOS the modern Erector Set!!!! Seems like one could go a much simpler route to learn to play with plastic blocks...I guess it's probably more involved than "playing with plastic blocks" when it's THERE! It took Bob nearly 9 years to find all the parts to build this 1927 Ferris Wheel. Talk about sticktoitiveness!

NIPHER BAND - GREAT PHOTO!
Thanks to Mike Caldwell we can see who was who in the Band, Mr. Beattie's the leader, it's 7th grade for us. You can add names by commenting, click the picture for a larger version but I'd rather you go to www.khs65.com to add names as comments, it works better. This photo is in the second album from top, 2010 photos. Click the picture twice there to get to the largest version. THANKS again MIKE! And thanks to Alan Yount and Pete Nardie for adding names. I have created the best list I can so far of who is who, so please go to the website, khs65.com, click the 2010 album, scroll down to this photo, then read comments to see all names. Please add a comment to add more names in place of ?s OR to correct names, then I can redo the comments to include changes! Thanks! You can comment here if you prefer, and I'll transfer the info to the website, but having the names all in one place is kinda nice.
