RE-GROUP - Fair Week Won't Work -

Hi Family -

I've been talking about all of us who are able to do so getting together here in Burley (Heyburn - I have a half acre yard, a barbecue pit, three picnic tables and friendly dogs! (some might want to bring a chair)) during the last three days of Cassia County Fair Week - (CCF is August 13 - 18, so I was thinking 16 - 18). BUT NOW I find that my darling granddaughters who will be here for the summer and some of the reason for us all to get together will be returning to Arkansas August 15th.

SO - HERE'S the RE-PLAN -

The last week in July - 27th, 28th, 29th - get togethers, talking and hanging out, with a big
bar-b-q dinner in my yard on the afternoon of the 28th -

I have an empty garage and a huge yard for tents and sleeping bags - folks can book motels or camp out - I have an extra single bed and a couch -

This would supplement the 2008 Hutchinson Reunion, not replace or distract from it -

If you have e-mail addresses or communicate regularly with relatives not on this list - Aunt June, for example, or anybody's kids or ... anyone I don't have here - please pass this on.

RSVPs are helpful, but not necessary -

love, hugs, Heywood

It's ANOTHER Reunion! I hope you can come!

Hi there - This is Heywood Williams - known, in an earlier manifestation as Lorry, but it's been Heywood for about 23 1/2 years. Fourth up and fourth down of Donna's kids, and favorite niece of my Uncle Lon and Aunt Grace (not really - they never really knew quite what to think of me, but I surely loved them).

It took me a while to get out here on the blog, but here I am and I hope not too chatty. The main thing is that towards the end of "fair week" (Cassia County Fair Week is August 13 - 18, so I'm thinking Thursday, Friday, Saturday - 15th -18th) in Burley, I am hosting a get-together of relatives - a family reunion of the Williams-Hutchinson clan related to my folks, descended from my grandparents on both sides - Clyde and Flora Hutchinson and as many of those from Hazel and Vincet Williams as I can get in touch with - and their ilk (those related to kith and kin).

I live (now) in Heyburn and have a glorious yard, with a barbecue in one corner and half an acre - fenced - perfect for our clan(s). I'm at the corner of 18th Street and M street in beautiful downtown Heyburn. When I saw the yard and bought the house, a large motivation was the idea that we could all gather here. I got even more excited about the idea when I met again Cheryl and Debbie and Tony in Moses Lake last fall.

There - that's enough about all that. It's lovely to finally have logged onto the blog -
love, hugs, Heywood
