'mates

Paul Strandberg, Karl Tegland, Ron Olson. 
Karl Tegland and Stan Rolfsrud brought news of the JHS Class of 1965 reunion this morning to two classmates who were unable to attend. The impromptu meeting with Ronnie Olson (class vice president) and Paul Strandberg (class president) took place on a beautiful morning under an umbrella in Strandberg's sunny Roseville back yard.
Earlier on, Tegland, Rolfsrud and Strandberg ate a hearty breakfast at the nearby Byerly's. The trio enjoyed three-egg omelets, filled with wild rice sausage, mushrooms and cheeses (swiss and buttered toast for Tegland and Strandberg, cheddar and English muffins for Rolfsrud). Pushing the gourmet envelope further, Tegland added chopped green peppers to his mix, and ordered a round of coffee, black. It was agreed that the senior menu, although attractively priced, appeared way too lightweight for any serious consideration.
After breakfast, Rev. Olson showed up at Paul's house to visit before leaving with Paul for their regular noon Fantasy Baseball meeting (they've had a bad year, drafted poorly and are now paying for it. They have been at this for 38 years. You would think that by now. . .).
Olson and Strandberg were most interested in hearing all about the good folks at the reunion events; yes, they do read the class blog, but there's nothing like getting the personal dish.
Rolfsrud and Tegland served generous helpings.

Karl Tegland responds from Seattle:
You know it's a slow news day, when you publish the breakfast menu in detail! But still, it's fun. Nice job !!
For the record, I added green pepper AND onion.
