BATTLE HYMN OF THE BABY BOOMERS-come to the reunion in October! So I met up with some of the organizing gals to catch up and have a few laughs. Over to Riva's at Navy Pier for a libation and dinner. Yes, the class of '70. Yup that would be 41 years ago- back in the day when a $4.00 bottle of wine was pretty good stuff and when we fed our dogs left over McDonald's. Having recently learned how to play the air guitar I did my best to convince the ladies I was stage worthy. Ahem, Boca, yeah we'll be sure to do our best to fit you in the program. Must keep practicing that windmill move. Thank you ladies for taking the time and effort to organize the Thornridge Falcons. Most appreciated!
Donna and Barb are like salt and pepper. Salty and hot! Having a laugh with the Murphy sisters. Few things grab us by the collar and humble us as much as our high school reunion. Now and again they come back to haunt us like a ghost from the past- hello Mathew McConaughey. Our youthful past is exposed once again. I find the reunions to be the great equalizer. Did you reach your peak in high school? college? later? now? waiting? I love attending my high school reunion and am always thrilled and proud of achievements and life experiences of my childhood pals.
