We did it! We went and had a family reunion after all these years and it was great. And you know what? I can't wait to do it again, year after year. The Ryken family is great and deserves to be together to mix and mingle on an annual basis.

I think the month of August is going to stick, all that remains up in the air is the location. I chose El Cerrito because it was close to Phylura and Jim and centrally located to most, but if you know of a great spot, indoors or out, that can handle our clan and has clean bathrooms, please let me know. I would like to reserve the August 2012 Ryken Reunion spot in January so we have plenty of time to get the word out and get as many folks attending as possible!
