OT -- JRiver company cruise
« on: August 29, 2005, 10:23:21 am »

We had a company get-together last night in the form of a boat cruise on a big lake west of Minneapolis.

You can see the boat arriving at the dock, us standing around waiting, several pictures of the whole group, and a few other random shots.

It was about as nice an evening and as pleasant an experience as you could imagine.

Did anyone "purify themselves" in Lake Minnetonka?  ;)

Hi,

Nice pictures, JRiver on a lake, quite logical in a way !

Galley, is there a "purifying" legend about this lake ?

The phrase "Purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka" is known from Prince's Purple Rain movie:

I quess there must be some historical legends behind it.

Thanks Alex,

It is true that Prince is a Minnesota boy.

Looks like a great time. Can someone identify some of the people in the photos, in particular the ones that post here, so we can associate a name with a face?

I think it'd be more fun if people guessed. 

We'll call it "Where's Gateley?"

Hi Raymond!  Hope you're well there.  Send an e-mail when you have time, and let me know what's happened since we talked last.

Some friends and I took a cruise out on Lake George, NY last weekend, it was a great day.



I live about 5 miles from the southern end of the 32 miles long lake. Here's some more pix of the lake:

I'm still getting the hang of uploading photos and resizing etc, so excuse some the fuzzy pix, Jay.

In this picture:

and starting from the right, which is the end I can see best, it's:

JimH
Cynthia (JimH's nurse)
Mary Norris
Nancy
Peter Sohal (marketing)
Tom (new guy)
Gene (old new guy)
Rick (old and new guy)
Chick (Rick's)
Brooke
Matt
Steve G
Ken
John Norris
John Gateley (but his daughter died his hair so he's hiding).  John is front and center in this picture:

Ruthan (and a sliver of John, her husband)
Jim Nordgaard (came to JRiver during the Middle Ages)
Dean (Jim's wife)

Bob was missing but made it for the boat ride.  Bob joined JRiver before Jim Nordgaard.  He can be seen at the lower right side of this picture:
