Photos from Recent Penn Luncheons

(With apologies to "September Song")

Oh it's a long long time
From August to October
And the posts catch up
When you reach November

OK, gang.  In late August we met at Mi Tierra at Market Square.  Here are a couple of highlights:

Counterclockwise from right, Ana Acevedo, Julianne LeGierse, Lorraine Pulido, Elaine Ayala, Iris Gonzalez, Raul Quiroga, Rhonda Boyles, Bill Dupont, and Ana's Eli spouse, Martin Acevedo.

In September we enjoyed breakfast at Il Sogno at the Pearl. I was away and we don't have photos or a good count of who was there, but Elaine tells me the fare was excellent.  (If you were there, please e-mail me to help me keep track, and I'm curious what you had for Italian breakfast.  Thanks!)

And for October, we traveled to the south end of town to Bernard's Creole Kitchen, a gem in the Stinson Airport terminal building.  All who went enjoyed it, and we recommend the rest of you check out Bernard's at your leisure.  I-37 to Military Drive, west on Military to Mission, which takes you right to Stinson Field.

Shown here are (clockwise from left) John Ray, Jo-Anne Kaplan, Mike Gershman, Iris Gonzalez, Rick Parkhurst.  Later arrivals were Elaine Ayala, Lorraine Pulido, Dave Young.  Did I forget anyone?
