54 years since graduation? Really? Life is way too busy although my husband Mark and I are both retired. As part of the sandwich generation, we try to get to Rolling Hills every 6 weeks or so to visit my mom who is declining and to Oregon every 3 -4 months to see our children (1 in Portland area, 1 east of Bend) and grandchildren. Thankfully we enjoy travelling. Will miss the reunion as we will be taking off for several weeks in Japan the beginning of October. We are also busy with hobbies and home projects. I love seeing Marcia Clapp Block three times a week to walk or hike. Mark is currently rebuilding our deck and I have at least 4 quilts in progress; we are also both active at our synagogue.

Sorry to miss, especially those of you that were together from Valmonte to Dapplegray and RHS.
