November 6, 2011: To All Who Are Attending OH Fallfest on November 12. If you have your copy of the August 1961 issue of the National Geographic handy, please be sure to bring it to the Fallfest. We will be celebrating the 50th Anniversary of that issue, and recognizing a number of OH who are featured in the Justice Douglas article on "The Friendly Huts of the White Mountains."

You'll need your copy to compare today's Gerry Whiting to his photo, or to see if the lederhosen that Chuck Kellogg might be sporting are indeed the same ones which he is shown wearing in the Lakes kitchen. We plan to get a group photo of everyone who brings their copy of that issue, and if you are fortunate, you may substantially increase its value by getting autographs on the appropriate pages.

See you there with your Geographic!
