We seem to all be suffering a common problem these days, WHERE DID OUR LIVES GO? Our brains seem to still be 18, but our bodies are talking a different language. Sarah Orne Jewett puts it much more eloquently than do I:

“Neither of my companions was troubled by her burden of years. I hoped in my heart that I might be like them as I lived on into age, and then smiled to think that I too was no longer very young. So we always keep the same hearts, though our outer framework fails and shows the touch of time.”

September 2025 ~ 60th Reunion pictures ~ UPDATED 2/21/26



February 21, a few updates and an added photo please scroll thru again!

 After all the years I have been posting on this blog, today the software is choosing to give me fits.  I feel like I have never used it before!!!  I take no credit for these photos, the ones I posted on my Facebook page were either taken by me or someone using my camera.  There are many photos, often multiples of the same person or group so I tried to use the pix that are the most flattering to those shown.   Please know that you must not give any importance to the order in which these are posted, NOR with whom the folks may be pictured - there is no gossip to be started here. ðŸ’€ What a great group of friends though, enjoying the company of one another after many years !!!
 
 
The DART always tags along with us!

Some '64 folks whose pic snuck in, but Pete Nardie is my good pal and John Burns too so it's OKAY, besides the DART loves seeing us all together. I vote John Burns as the most changed male, I did NOT recognize him in these pix, except for seeing his nametag with his KHS yearbook photo, now THAT John Burns I recognized!!  Looking good John!!!
