A Sweet Visit

Beverly Carter and I had the privilege to spend a little time with Penny Baker today at Braum's.  We have not seen her since high school graduation.  She is such a sweetie and we really enjoyed our brief visit.  Our condolences to Penny and her family in the recent loss of her mother.  Thank you for taking the time to catch up with us.  Friends just get sweeter as the years roll by.

A Special Poem Found for YOU!

Please note:  I found this poem on the internet and I did not find a copyright.   I have posted the credit to the author at the bottom.  Minor changes were made to make it relevant for our high school group of ladies.  This poem beautifully expresses how I believe each of us feel after we get together.  The title was changed, as it was  intended for a 50th class reunion.  Posted by LaNell  (FYI - Cool Grandma is my screen name)

Reunited Classmates


A long breath of accumulated years
Has sustain each day as lives veered
Taking pathways to the unforeseen
Following fragrant flowering dreams

Our regular get-togethers marks the occasion
How has distance altered the equation?
Smiles abound with freely given embraces
Recognizable voices give light to familiar faces

Amazed by high school sweethearts still together
Married all these years…reflecting one another
Conversations revolve on the harmonious carousel
Past and present unite and simultaneously dwell

Sharing talk of whereabouts and growing families
Sharing blessings as well as overcoming tragedies
Attentively listening as seasoned old friends narrate
Remembering with a tribute…departed classmates

All the ladies united around tables in a quaint tea room
Reminiscing joyfully before former teens say goodbye
As I drive home… youthful voices resound in my mind
Suspended in a moment of time…where age is not defined
