Retirees’ Corner
November 2006
Jane
(Engineering Directorate, 1993) and Pat (C
Division, 1990) Ellis flew to
Boston, got a rental car with Dave
(Hazards Control/Z Div, 1993), and June
(Budget Office, l990) Montgomery.
In Quebec City,
the old part of town, they had just finished having lunch when they looked
across the street and saw Gordon (Engineering,
1996) and Ester Longerbeam.
They had a nice talk before they had to catch the bus back to their Old Quebec
Tour, which gave a very good history of the area. Gordon and Ester had just gotten off the
Queen Mary 2, which had just docked. Talk about a small world! Pat
and Jane had made a few stops after Boston;
their favorite spot being Bar Harbor,
Maine, where they stayed at a
super Lodge which overlooked the Frenchman's Bay. They also drove to Acadia National
Park which is a spectacular park. They especially
enjoyed the Old Quebec Tour with the Waterfalls, Copper Art Museum,
etc. It was all so nice and to top it
all off they hit the peak of the season with the changing of the colors; the
trees were just beautiful.
Gus (Electronics
Engineering, 1993) and Jane (Mechanical
Engineering, 1993) Olson have been
doing a little traveling over the past month.
In September, they spent a week visiting relatives in Indiana. Then in October they spent 3 days
in Paradise, CA and four days in Santa Barbara. Both California
areas were just gorgeous and very enjoyable.
Indiana
was Indiana. Jane had never been to Paradise
or Santa Barbara
and fell in love with both.
The November luncheon will
be held on Wednesday, November 15th at the Elks Lodge in Livermore, 940 Larkspur Drive. We will have the same speaker as last year, Andrew Clark, Manager of Health and Welfare at UC,
who will tell us about the "Latest Health Plan Changes”. He would like any questions ahead of time, so

their open enrollment packets in late October or early November. If you did not, contact the health care
