FIFTY YEARS AGO

This past summer I celebrated another milestone in my life – my 50-year high school class reunion. As I looked around the room I felt sad for those classmates who had died, but at the same time happy for those of us who could still enjoy this wonderful celebration. We laughed, we joked, we reminisced, and we talked about our lives.

I talked about my new hobby, www.FunnyPhotosContest.com
for cute or funny photos and photo captions, and others talked about their travels around the world, their recent careers, and their successes, etc. etc. Of course, we talked about our grandchildren. And to my surprise, one of my classmates, Tom, not only had two grandchildren the same ages as mine, but our four grandchildren lived in the same nearby small town.

Lo and behold the next day when I talked to my grandsons they confirmed that they knew my classmate’s grandchildren very well. In addition, the four children live within a block of each other!!!
