Since Dave had retired, we began planning a celebration of the science and work of Jim Peebles and Dave Wilkinson in the summer of 2002. Sadly, as you all know, Dave passed away on September 5, 2002. We decided to go ahead with the celebration; we're sure Dave would have approved.

The Web announcement of the celebration is here and the program is here.

Below is a photo album of the celebration assembled from pictures taken with my camera, Jane's camera, and Bill Wickes' camera.

I apologize for the quality of some of the photos. I was really too far away for the flash to be effective and when I tried without the flash, the pictures sometimes came out a bit fuzzy!

	Some of the people that worked to make the Fest a success. Shelley Krohnengold, Kathie Warren, and Angela Glenn.		Steve Boughn, Haverford, chaired the first session of Friday afternoon.
	Dan Marlow, physics chair, welcomed the participants.		President Shirley Tilghman welcomes the participants.

	Neil Turok, Ed Wollack, Paul Steinhardt, Glennys Farrar, and Dave Spergel.		Brent Tully, Hawaii, began the afternoon talking on Least Action.
	Juan Uson, NRAO, chaired the first afternoon session.		Rai Weiss, MIT, described the LIGO project.
	Results from LIGO were discussed by Peter Saulson, Syracuse.		Weak Gravitational Lensing was the topic for Gary Bernstein, Pennsylvania.
	Andrew Lange, Caltech, discussed the future direction of Cosmic Microwave Background research.		One of Andrew's slides.
	Joe Silk, Oxford, talked about Galaxy Formation.		David Hogg, NYU, chaired the second Saturday afternoon session.
	The scientific sessions ended with a few remarks by Jim.		Jim gets an ovation!
	The real reason to have the Fest was to have a party! Here are Ed Wollack and Andrew Lange, a lady turned away from the camera, Suzanne Staggs, Jason Puchalla, and Dale Fixsen.		Bill Wickes and Ed Groth.
	Alison, Ellen, and Jim Peebles.		Bill Wickes and Marc Davis.
	Larry Rudnick and Sue Wickes.		Sue and Bill Wickes with Jim Peebles.
	Jim Fry, his wife Hai-Ping Cheng, and Ed Groth.		Jim Peebles and David Hogg.
	Larry Rudnick, Phil Crane, and Bill Wickes.		Phil Lubin's daughter, Phil Lubin, Eunice Wilkinson, and Marion Fugill.
	Marion Fugill and Bea. Marion is Gravity Group Secretary, Emeritus.		Warren and Kathie Warren.
	The Gordon family: Wendy (nee Wilkinson), Torey, Harry, and Brent.		A piece of David Hogg, Jim Peebles, and Steve and Susan Boughn.
	Neta Bahcall and Joan Treiman.		Frank Shoemaker.
	Lyman Page and Lisa Olson.		Alison Peebles and Joe Taylor. Directly behind are Steve and Chris Gratton.
	Marietta Taylor and Marianne Piroue.		Eric and Angela Glenn.
	Dan Marlow and Susan Sturtevant.		Paul and Nancy Steinhardt.
	Suzanne Staggs and Jason Puchalla.		Mark Devlin.
	Mike and Elaine Seldner and Ed Groth.		Lesley (nee Peebles) Dorin and Eunice Wilkinson.
	After drinks, we had a banquet in Proctor Hall, the Graduate College.		Another shot of the banquet.
	Champagne is poured in preparation for a toast.		We asked people to stand if they had been undergraduates in the Gravity Group, GG graduate students, GG postdocs, GG faculty members, collaborators with the GG, and finally friends and colleagues of the Gravity Group. By that time everyone was standing and we drank a toast to Dave and Jim!
	Of course, you can't have a banquet without after dinner speeches. Paul Steinhardt makes some remarks.		Lyman Page does a bit of roasting.
	Bill Wickes recalls the good old days in the Gravity Group.		Ed Groth has a few remarks.
	Remarks by David Hogg.		Suzanne Staggs adds some comments and also read some remarks by Eunice Wilkinson.
	Marc Davis reminisces about the Gravity Group.		Alison Peebles gets a chance to roast Jim!
	Guess who gets the last word!		After the speeches were over, we continued to talk with old and new friends until they "threw us out." Here's Bruce Partridge.
	Lesley (nee Peebles) Dorin and Ed Groth.		Hmm... just like the good old days! Mike Seldner, Phil Crane, and Ed Groth.
	Peter Saulson and Lyman Page.		Lisa Olson talks to Max Tegmark.
	Laura, Pat McDonald, and Steve and Chris Gratton.		Ray Soneira.
