The Rumson St. Patrick’s Day Parade is set to step off on Sunday, barring rain. And we’re thinking that there’s nothing quite like celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, Irish or not, with a couple of bulldogs leading your alma mater’s marching band. That’s how RFH did it back in 1993.

Sometimes you just find yourself up a puddle without a paddle. And sometimes the way around it, or through it, is by spilling out of a VW bug like a bunch of RFH clowns in a clown car.

There’s nothing like chilling with the cool kids when you’re a middle schooler. And these Rumson boys knew just how to lead the coolness brigade back in the 1970s at Forrestdale School.

The RFH Tower Players are prepping a boatload of fun on stage with Anything Goes in a few weeks. And sometimes you just never know who will show up as an audience stowaway — or something like that.

Well, rainy days like today and hangin’ in the Senior Commons at RFH were just about as cool as The Carpenters’ hit song in the 1970s. It didn’t have to be on Monday, though. And nothing got RFHers down when it came to Halloween fun and lounging. The fun just stayed inside and all RFH cozy-like.
Let’s face it. It’s not every day that you get the chance to grab a bite of good ol’ RFH cafeteria grub — or a little scary costumed sustenance, let’s say.
It’s also not every day that you get the chance to “cop a squat” in the RFH senior lounge to ingest the spirit, or spirits, of the day in the company of Harpo and Groucho Marx.

A little reprise to celebrate basketball season …
Yes, it’s RFH basketball season. You’ve seen these RFH “ladies” before …

It’s Sunday fun day. Do you know where your imbibing fun-seekers are? No, it isn’t Cheers. It’s a younger, hipper ’70s or ’80s Sea Bright version of it, though. The gathering spot was the iconic Melody Corner/Sail Inn.

Still “imbibing and pursuing leisurely interests” after all these years. That would be the RFH Ladies of the Round Table. You’ve seen them before in a ’70s Retro Pic of the Day and they’ve been at it again “all these years” later — at a gathering in Delray Beach, FL.
