Don's birthday and Lail reunion

The Lail family had a birthday party/reunion Saturday at Mt. Bethel United Methodist Church in the Bethlehem community near Hickory, NC.


It was uncle Don Lail's birthday (11/25/1925) birthday and the whole Virginia clan (which I hadn't seen in many, many years ... most of my cousins' children I had never met).

However, everyone went home happy with cool T-Shirts (courtesy of Donnie). ... I'll post some photos later.
