OMG. Linda Bristow. I haven't posted anything on this site in I guess several years. However, since the pandemic started and it was decided to post all these crazy daily things, I've read every post since they started. Never have missed a day. Then, all of a sudden, I see you mention my name, along with several others. So, l decided to log in. I attended the 55th reunion last year, and I was disappointed, yet thrilled to death. I had hoped to see several old friends, which were unable to attend. However, I was elated to see a few people I doubt I'd seen since graduation, such as Ed Buis, Garth Golden, Wayne Kearny, Bill (Smokey) Walton, and a couple others. Anyway, I have absolutely, totally enjoyed all the posts for about the last 6 months. I've been amazed by the places people have been, the things they've accomplished & enjoyed during their lives. The flowers, rivers, sunsets,crafts, trees, animals, kids, grandchildren, etc, etc. And most of all, some of the hilarious things people have said. `Although, I've recognized almost every photo of classmates and remembered soooo many things from the days of old. Unbelievable memories. For those who have traveled to far away places, I'm happy for you, and enjoyed hearing about your experiences. That being said, I personally have absolutely, positively, with no reservations, NO desire to visit almost anywhere outside the USA. Well, maybe Ireland or Australia. Maybe. By the time I was 17, I had driven on vacations to almost every state in the US and seen so many things with my parents. I feel I was very fortunate to have done that. Although, if the opportunity came for me to go and observe any species of Penguins, I'm in. Not sure why, but I've been infatuated with all 17 species of penguins that exist. Yep, unknown to most, there are 17 different families of them. I have penguins made out of many different materials. Maybe I'll put a pic of some on here one day later. I need to get going, but, I'll try to get back on here in the next few days, and maybe give an update. I guess part of my lack of posting the last few years has been somewhat due to health issues within the family. Since things have settled, maybe I'll give a very short update about all that later. For now, good night, and may everyone be blessed with good health and a safe holiday weekend coming up.
