Please find that URL below that has a number of excellent photos from our 35th Reunion in June 2006:

A lot of these pictures will be familiar to anyone who attended the 2006 Reunions, and especially the Class of 1971's 35th Reunion, but perhaps they are most tantalizing for those who didn't get back this year.
The album captures 30 hours of the weekend, from 2:30 p.m. Friday until 8:30 p.m. Saturday evening, just before the fireworks. In between, shown mostly in chronological order, were the festschrift for John Fleming *63 h71, a panel discussion on changing mores that featured Miguel Firpi '71, the Band performing an abbreviated concert under our Cuyler tent, cocktails and dinner out at the Grad College, President Tilghman's talk to the class during a downpour and her departure with a gift of Fern Mazo's umbrella, Darlene Love taking us back to the '60s, more rain on Saturday morning (including during the class picture at Blair Arch) and more seminars, including Sean Wilentz on the question of W's place in history, the breakfast at Prospect House for the pathbreaking women of '71, calypso during lunch, the P-Rade, the annual 'Prince' party hosted by Larry Dupraz h71 behind 48 University Place, and cocktails, chatter and dinner by Lake Carnegie. Alas, I missed the Party Dolls and the fireworks.
If you've got patience and a good internet connection, click through the P-Rade photos at a fast clip. You'll get the sensation of weaving down campus along the parade route, watching the years fade with every step.
