We all met in the CR dorms in 1974. About seven of us stay in contact, and this trip was to celebrate us turning sixty.





Fields Landing

As students at CR, the closest place to live was Fields Landing. We all moved out of the dorms straightaway, either to Fields Landing or Humboldt Hill. Here are a few photos of Fields Landing.

Trinidad

Four of us met and spent a couple days in a vacation cottage walking distance to downtown Arcata. On our full day together we went to Trinidad, then spent the rest of the afternoon and evening talking as it poured down rain outside.

Heading Home
