I am ready to "lock" the poll. Last chance for anyone who has not voted, to let us know how thick or thin your purple blood runs.

Thanks for leaving it open long enough for me to see that I am not the only "one timer" here.

it was a wonderful couple of days. Very proud of HC '16 and all he's accomplished.

Here's an example of a multi-generation HC family. My first use of the "like" feature on the new board. Great photo of the CHC8485/HC16 family

I love this picture but have to ask Bob what kind of lighting attachment he has with his camera to be able to get such a clear shot at 12:54 am in the morning? It looks just like daylight. Very impressive!

That picture was actually taken on my dad's camera and let's just say technology was never his strong suit. And I can assure you that at 88, even if he is awake at that hour of the morning, he wouldn't be vertical.

My cousin (father's brother's son) went to HC, he was '75, I was '73.
Overall, sad to admit, much more C-Hill oriented. My dad was BC and I got my master's there.
Aforementioned uncle was a double eagle, and aforementioned cousin was BC law and his daughter BC undergrad.
And, throw in a BC undergrad on my mom's side.
In terms of sports, I have stayed loyal (and often very frustrated) to the Cross, while my cousin pretty much went over to the dark side.

We will pray for your cousin. You may owe some time in purgatory(still believed in ?) for the sins of your many relatives

My cousin and immediate family are all attorneys- one of them will plea-bargain purgatory down to a few dozen Hail Marys.

Will let the poll run the rest of the week and then lock it. Everyone has pretty much had a chance to have their vote/say.
