The annual Oktoberfest at the Double Luck is held! And this time, I took photographs! I'm not sure whether I got a picture of everyone there, but I tried. I'm sorry if you were there and I missed you.

John Donaho, a friend with whom I played Little League Baseball (I was the better catcher), was at Oktoberfest and sent these pictures. Thanks, John! We have not seen each other since our high school graduation, almost 40 years ago. Let's not wait another 40 to get together again!
