Hello Chris, Hope this finds you healthy and happy. Thought you might be interested in some news from PV...
MEXICO CITY, Aug 15 (Reuters) - Eight armed men abducted "six or seven" suspected members of the Sinaloa drug cartel from a restaurant in the heart of Mexico's Pacific tourist resort of Puerto Vallarta early on Monday morning, the state attorney general said.

Local authorities say the victims were seized around 1 a.m. CDT (0600 GMT) on Monday from a restaurant in the resort town.

Interviewed on local television, Jalisco Attorney General Eduardo Almaguer said the men who were abducted were believed to be members of the Sinaloa cartel, one of Mexico's most feared drug smuggling gangs, which was led by Joaquin "Chapo" Guzman until his capture in January.
Almaguer said the suspected gang members were accompanied by nine women who were left behind, adding that the kidnappers had yet to make any contact with authorities.

Puerto Vallarta, in the state of Jalisco, is one of Mexico's top vacation destinations, luring all-inclusive tourists and high-end sunseekers to its beaches.

Jalisco, which lies south along the Pacific coast from Sinaloa, is also home to the Jalisco New Generation cartel, which has become one of the country's most powerful drug gangs in recent years.

In a statement, the prosecutor's office said it was investigating the incident, while Almaguer said he was trying to fully identify the men who were abducted. (Reporting by Anahi Rama and Lizbeth Diaz and Luis Rojas; Editing by Alan Crosby and Joseph Radford)
I think the Restaurant Bar is La Leche.
Anyway, thought I'd pass it along. Enjoy your reunion!

Thanks so much for the birthday wish Karol. Hope life is treating you well and you are healthy and happy. The Villages...isn't that one of Florida's largest retirement communities located just south of Ocala? Before retiring I lived in Palm Bch. Gardens. Enjoy the reunion!

Hello Cathy...good to hear from you! Just realized from your profile that we share the same yearly celebration date...26 June. And the same year...1948. And...were neighbors. And best of all...we're both still here! Hope all is well and you are healthy and happy! An artist? What medium? Sorry, I can't make the reunion, a little far to travel, but do pass on my regards to those who might remember me. And have a wonderful time! Smiles.

Hey Mick, Phi Alpha Beta and Gordon Kingery ring any bells? My how time flies! But its been a great ride nonetheless. Yes, I know Udon well. I lived here in Thailand back in the 70's (73-78) and fell in love with it. So after I retired from the securities industry; stocks, bonds, etc. I moved back here permanently. Retired when I was 60 in 2008 and haven't left the country since. Spend a lot of time on the golf courses, and attempting to author a book. When you get the chance feel free to send me a line at tavaughn@msn.com would love to hear from you and your connection to Japan. Smiles

Hello Sally, so good to hear from you. To answer your question...no I'm no longer involved in theatre. Back in the early 70's I started a community theatre in Ft. Walton Beach, FL and as of today it's still exists! www.stagecraftersfwb.com I retired 8 yrs. ago to the northern city of Chiang Mai, Thailand where I spend most of my time either on the golf course or authoring a book. Never boring! I hope all is well with you, and though I won't be able to make it to the reunion please pass on my regards to those who may still remember me. Smiles

Hello Charlie...so good to hear from you! I had to chuckle when you mention about getting under your skin...I got it! It's amazing how events become keepsakes in our memories. You were a good friend. Glad to hear you're back on track with your health. When you get the chance feel free to drop me a line at tavaughn@msn.com would enjoy hearing from you. Smiles

Sherman. Glad to hear your still kicking. I also see you still have most of your hair. Mines been slowly going south. So, the big question is, Why Thailand? I was there in 68 as part of an inspection tour of missile bases for the Army. Loved it there. Didn't like Nam, Korea or Japan. To many people. Wife and I are retiring next year to Ponce' Puerto Rico. Nice and warm. Keep in touch. Good to hear from you.
