HIGH SCHOOL REUNION


I graduated from Roosevelt High School in Fresno, California at least 100 years ago.  And, I just just got back from my high school reunion.  It was rather disappointing in that there were only about 30 of us who made it.  I'm sure there are many reasons for this and a large reason is no one could find each other.  So, is does make one stop and realize that we need to work at keeping up with each other.  On my day to return to my life in Long Beach, three out of four best friends managed to meet for breakfast. We spent over two hours (clearly not enough time) visiting and doing some long-needed catching up on our lives.  Vicki and Linda still live in the area.  Our fourth best friend, Lanier, lives in Dixon and couldn't make the reunion.  While at breakfast, we pulled out our calendars for next year (OK, I pulled out my cell phone) and we have scheduled a girl's weekend for August of 2011.  Hope you can make it Lanier.

We all wore name badges with our Senior pictures on them and some other memorabilia to make us feel old.  Check out these prices (just click on the photo).  Told you it was over 100 years ago.

Quilt happy,

Marilyn
