I am a ‘65 graduate and my wife is a ‘66. My brother, daughter and son-in-law are all Auburn folks. We call ourselves an Auburn family. This of course extends to the world Auburn family. My moment was on a trip to Peru to visit family living and working there. My wife, Fran and I decided to go off on our own to visit the town of Cusco in the high Andes mountains, above 11,000 feet in elevation, and the discovered Inca lost city of Machu Picchu, also in the high Andes. Keep in mind that we are above ten thousand feet, in the high Andes Mountains of a very remote area of the country of Peru, visiting remains of the lost Incan empire. At that elevation it was cool and damp, and I had on a light tan-colored windbreaker with a “kind of large” AU. As my wife and I were walking through the gateway to the lost city of Machu Picchu, a group was walking out and to my surprise a gentleman in the group called out a loud “War Eagle”! Of course that made the climb and tour of the lost city that much more enjoyable to know that we could be in that remote of an area of the world and find the brotherhood of Auburn there.
War Eagle!!
