Looking forward to seeing many old friends! I am still teaching at McDowell HS in Marion, NC. (Sociology, psychology and debate.) Including Kenmore, I've spent 45 of the last 48 years in high school, so you know my brain is somewhat warped and addled. Linda & I live on a small hobby farm in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains, in a county which is 90% forested. Have traded in the BMW motorcycle for a Miata in my old age, and enjoy taking scenic outtings in search of ice cream or fruit in season. I enjoy movies, music, reading, working outside, hiking, and Tae Kwon Do, which I've dabbled at for the last twenty years. Linda retired from her teaching career a few years ago, and is enjoying her days - traveling, train riding, and singing in the church choir.
Kids have all married and left home. Ellen (36) lives in Kassel, Germany, with her daughters Caroline and Anne and husband Jens. Glenn (33) is a teacher and lives with his wife on the next ridge behind us here in Dysartsville, NC. Karen (30) lives with her husband Chris and daughter Lily in Fairview, NC, and is the librarian at Fairview Elementary.
My parents still live in Kenmore, where they moved in 1967 as I started high school there. I keep in touch with several classmates. I am saddened by the state of our nation, increasingly distracted by angry kooks who want to "take their country back" and fantasize that nostalgia is a strategy. I hope we can come to realize that a rich country needs to make wealth, manufacture things, and put away the smoke and mirrors before we are totally backrupt. We close 30,000 factories, borrow money to buy imports, and then act baffled when we have a "jobless recovery". If our school was any good, surely we're not that stupid!
