Hi friends

Our get-together yesterday was well-attended, and we had great fun!
Its unbelievable how time flew by, and no-one noticed how 4-5 hrs
passed by without any pause. Everyone had relived some nostalgic
moments, cracked a few jokes, caught up with whats happening with each
other.

Not very surprisingly, somehow I did not capture enough photos in my
camera, so whatever group photos are there, I uploaded in the
following link.

Big kudos to Rammohan for arranging this at his guesthouse and we all
thank him for the same.

I request others too to upload any more photos they have and share.

Rammohan's crew promised to share video of the event as well as
scanned copies of old school group photos.

Very importantly, on behalf of entire group of friends, I want to
express my appreciation for the out-of-towners who traveled from
distant places just to make this event special - Kondapalli, Bheema,
Kasturi, Kakani, Kishore, Alapati (I hope I have not forgotten anyone
else..).

I also, on behalf of entire group, thank the remote-presence of our
friends who for various unavoidable reasons could not make it, but
called in to express their solidarity and share the moment (Balaram,
DVL Narsi, Jagadeesh, Ezekel..and couple more).

We agreed to do this more often, and one date that has been proposed
is - sometime in January at Bapatla to coincide with Bapatla college
aulmni meet. We need to further figure out the exact dates and make
suitable arrangements.

In the near term, we also discussued to reconnect - even if as a
smaller group in case some of out-of-towners can't show up - when
Jagadeesh, Adinarayana Kompalli and others visit India in July
timeframe.

--
All in all - thanks for the great fun - and let us continue the
spirit.

Best wishes
Venkat

Hi friends
Not sure if everyone received the weblink of more photos. Courtesy
Ramprasad, who captured many photos in the following album.

If there were more photos in other cameras, please upload at the
earliest.

Cheers
venkat
