All of you will LOVE Hal Williams!! He was our dinner guest at our table at the last reunion on 9/28/2012. He is so friendly & outgoing. It seems just like he could be your neighbor, co-worker, etc...The next evening at Ray Castro/Kami Cotler's event, when Mr. Williams was on the red carpet, he came right up to my husband & me to say Hi to us & that he would see us inside.
I really hope we can work it out so we can attend the reunion this year. I'm excited to hear that he is going to be there. I am also happy with the other three who plan to attend. I would be over the moon though, if Mrs. Lynn Hamilton (Verdie) also decided to join us!!

I'm hoping to make it as well this year, I've been blessed to have attended the last three, so I have a positive feeling I can make it a 4th time! Look forward to seeing everyone again and seeing old friends and hopefully making many new ones too RYAN-J

The Blue Ridge Parkway is a north-south route west of Lynchburg. There is a Parkway Vistor's Center in Roanoke, which is about 50-60 miles from Lynchburg. You should probably look it up on Google maps to familiarize yourself with the area. There are airports in Lynchburg, Charlottesville, and Roanoke. You should check and see which destination gives you the best fares.

I was racking my brains trying to think of Heather and it just didn't wanna come to me.
Awww I really hope you can be there It's going to be amazing. Nope it's going to be just me this time
Yes Brenda you gotta do that soon, you gotta be there hehehe

I just got my room too! For anyone who is wondering, if you mention you are with the Waltons International Fan Club, the rate is only $89/night, which I think is fantastic. The lowest online rate I can find for the same hotel is about $116/night.
