Lyn has a great day at Del Mar

Lyn rides at the Del Mar (CA) horse show and what a day it was. Here she is on her horse "Luke", the first time that Luke has been ridden in a show. The future looks very bright indeed as they were awarded three blue ribbons as well as a third. She actually picked up another second when she rode "Mr T" (see blog entry below for photo of Mr T) - a truly great horse. This was certainly a day to remember.

Noons at the Slaughter Family Utah Reunion

I attended the Slaughter Family reunion in Beaver, Utah on the 23rd and 24th of June and it was a great time indeed. It was organized by Nick Slaughter of Bakersfield (CA) and it was his family, descendants of Samuel Nathaniel Slaughter (brother of Emma Slaughter who was the wife of Adolphus Noon), who made up the bulk of those who attended. However the descendants of Ema Slaughter were also well represented. This photo is of the "Noon Contingent" and from left we have yours truly; Edith (Elser) Schroeder of San Diego; Bob and Marty Minney of San Diego; Lee and Diane Matsch of Tempe, AZ; Sylvia (Noon) Ilan of New York City; Bruce Noon of Tucson, AZ; Mary and Bob Kasulaitis of Arivica, AZ.
