2019 Portland Reunion

October 2nd to 6th, 2019

What a great visit to the Pacific Northwest. It is such a beautiful part of the world with green forests, majestic mountains and clean air! We stayed in the Heathman Lodge, a wonderful hotel set up like a real hunting lodge, and were treated well. Our day trips took us to the Oregon Historical Society museum. This was a special treat for the boomers among us because the museum had the traveling Grammy Museum Beatles exhibit. We had a delicious lunch at Huber's, Portland oldest restaurant. We took a scenic cruise of the Portland waterfront along the Willamette River. We also took a scenic drive on the Evergreen Highway, across the Columbia River on the “Bridge of the Gods” and to beautiful Multnomah Falls, the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon. At the banquet dinner we had our very own Bill Bonelli, 773rd, deliver a memorable talk about his experiences during the war. It was a good time for all!
