Reunion


Last week I went to my 50th high school reunion. I picked up a friend, Gail, in Tucson. She flew in from Maryland by way of LA. It was a long trip for her. But we made it and caught up with another classmate, Willa Dean. Friday about 15 of us met for lunch at the local diner and had a good time catching up. Then there was the parade and meeting more classmates. After that we could go to the game or up to one of our classmates home for a get-together. Needless to say we chose the get-together. It was really nice to catch up with everyone.

Saturday Gail and I drove around and visited our old homesites and high school. Our high school was an old Army-Air Force base that was rented for the grand sum of $1. per year. Now it is fenced and falling apart. Very sad. One of the homes I lived in is still around and looks like it has had some work done on it. The other one is gone! But a new home has been built next to it.

Fosters Freeze is closed but still standing. Carls is gone. We used to "cruise" from Fosters to Carls. Just to see if anyone new (?) was in town. What were we thinking it was Blythe! Nobody new ever.

All in all it was good to see everyone again.

Gail came home with me and we then went to Tombstone and Bisbee. It was nice to drive around and see this part of the country. I put her on the plane Wed then drove to Maricopa to see my niece and her family. The kids are sooooo cute!

Now I'm getting ready to drive to California for Thanksgiving. I'm looking so forward to seeing my children. It has been to long.
