Hi all from the Midlands of South Carolina where summer seems to flow right into a mild winter. I have been here thirty four years and maybe twice a snow has lasted long enough for a pine straw and slush "snowman" to last more than one day! Oh well, it has still been better than my 18 months south of Miami - things were excessively nice there and one tended to loose track of the passage of time.
As for the Reunion, one tends to get out of them what one is willing to put into them. The Ten Year Reunion was special to me because so many people who were not close high school friends pitched in to plan it and pull it off. It took two years, but since it was the first (and not just our first, but the first for the school) we had little information about the locations and doings of our far flung class.
I have only been able to attend one since, but it was top notch. Those who organized it put in a lot of work to provide a great opportunity for those who came to learn about the different paths others had trod and what things they had seen and done on their journeys.
A message to Curt...I tend to look ahead. Whereever I am I will cultivate professional relationships, but rarely any social friendships. I will help anyone with worthy projects, but I do not attend parties. I have known lots of people but have not corresponded nor called any of them on a regular basis.
You may recall that the 1970 Yearbook arrived late. I do not have a single signature or comment in mine, not even from Keith Northup with whom I spent a lot of time since he lived down the street from me...
I am bringing it. I hope many will write a note. Nothing about me. I am hoping they will share a few words about a part of their lives that they treasure most. That would make the yearbook something special. If you come, I hope you will honor me with a description of a memory from any part of your life that you treasure and are willing to share.
