Today I have written and exhanged e-mails with a girl I dated in high school, who is now a doctor; and my best friend from high school and college, who is now living down in Edi's area in Dallas, Georgia.  Ah yes, can my 40 year, high school reunion really be this summer?

How fun.  Do you think you will be able to go?

I went to a one room schoolhouse when I was five.  I wish I had stayed a few more years before going into public school.  I remember the class room & I remember the yard & bobbing for apples.

Another fantastic meal from Mr Skip Kennon: a wondeful salad, beautiful roast beef, a tasty quiche, and some really good focaccia. For dessert, a tasty lemon pie - I'm sure there's some wonderful French term for it - with a crust made of crushed almonds. The company was okay.

Actually, the company was a gathering of some of my favorite New Yorkers and visitors: DRS cillaliz, Julie, Ben and Ant, the fantastic Jose, Skip, FJL. and a friend of theirs from All That Chat, scottsimms.  Joking again! I believe her name is Lois (I'm getting old) and I do remember that she's originally from Brooklyn, now living in San Francisco, and she just saw GONE WITH THE WIND in London.  I enjoyed meeting her very much and I like having a face to put to her name when I next see her on All That Chat.

The conversation was quite lively and Dylan and Toby could hardly get a word in. I was just happy to be in the presence of so many interesting and intelligent folk.

It was very similar to that in Tacoma, except we bobbed for French fries.

It's my 40th anniversary, too, DR TCB, but I haven't heard anything about a reunion.

Well, last I heard our class hadn't gotten very far in planning one for us either.  Last time I asked someone, they asked me if I wanted to be the committee.

I received a notice for my class reunion. I decided I didn't really care what any of them were doing. That, and I couldn't lose forty pounds in time.

Good Evening!

Many, many Thanks and Kudos to Fred and Skip for hosting such a wonderful gathering and cooking such a wonderful meal.  I believe the dessert in question was a Lemon-Almonf Financier, but I'll leave that up to DR FJL to clarify with Skip - in any case - and in any language - it was delicious.

It was also great getting to see DRs Ben and Ant, Cillaliz, Julie, elmore and Lois from All That Chat.  Oh, and, of course, Dylan and Toby - such good boys!

Not the photo td posted, the photo he transferred the image from.  Be relieved you didn't get anything, it was filled with naked women in all sorts of unappealing poses.  When I clicked on the photo I was expected to read a nice story about the schoolhouse. ;D
