Three-Oh Update

The reunion was fantastic. Although a really low turnout and the hall was in a place even the current Stocktonians couldn't find, it was fun. No name tags! Added an element of intrigue.

Had nice talks with a number of people. A person who never liked me (it was mutual) kept coming up and hugging me. Faulty memory or water under the bridge? I'll never know.

And one person who I hadn't seen in 30 years finally came to a reunion and it was really great to reconnect. Looking forward to that relationship continuing. And hey, I just realized I didn't get to see pictures of his kids....are you listening TGQ? :)

Reconnected with Stockton, too. My next post will delve into the tennis aspect. The Blackwater Cafe is up and alive again, but it was a dive from hell. The first clue was the 8 smokers sitting outside at 11:30 in the morning. Inside smelled just as bad so we left. Nice Thai place in the "new" downtown. Drove around the old neighborhood near American Legion Park. Visted Big 5 and the Weberstown Mall since DH needed to do his once-a-decade clothes shopping. (And we got him a tennis racquet, too.)

And yes, I found a great dress to wear. I liked it and felt good in it. And DH said I looked great. (Good boy.)

See ya all in another 10, SM '78 grads!

And to all you folks who still live in Stockton and didn't show up--shame on you!

To all my friends in far away places who have NEVER shown up...hey you missed probably your last chance to look great. We're all going to be nearly 60 next time around. Not that we can't look great at 60, but the chances are going to get slimmer....:)

Anyway, I'll still be a year younger than all of you!
