HOW CAN I BE SO OLD?
 (My 50th Class Reunion and much more!!!) 
 
In my May newsletter, I told you we made a stop in Colorado. It also included my 50th Class Reunion in Colorado Springs. How is it possible that I'm that old? 

In reality, I graduated from Herington, Kansas. But at our All-School Reunion last year in our hometown, a bunch of us decided we’d change locales. Shake it up a bit in our old age. Wink! Wink!

 

Moving on to the reunion, I must admit that I haven’t had so much fun a looooong time. And the turnout was amazing. As you can see, sixteen classmates attended the festivities and braved the COLD on top of Pikes Peak the first morning. Our spouses were busy taking lots of pictures to prove we were there.
 

After we recovered from the altitude on Pikes Peak, we ate and then ventured to the Garden of the Gods. Our first stop: the Balanced Rock (see above). I bet most of you have the same shot. We drove around the park, showing our friends Bruce and Diane. They’d never seen it before.

I’m sad to say, our 50th Class Reunion came to a close, and we had to say goodbye. A fun time had by all…even the spouses said so. I’m left to wonder where the Class of ’74 will go on their next reunion…

ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!!
Below I've included assorted photos on our way through Utah and into Idaho (our final destination for the summer). I hope I don't bore you too much with all the pictures I share, but I say again, “We live in a beautiful country.”

That's all for now, but please share a photo from one of your class reunions or a special travel pic with me. I'd love to see either or both!!!
