So yesterday we had our 50th. High School renunion in my backyard. There was a very good turn out, excellent food, great times and newly made memories. Big shout out to my Son Justin, for being my side kick and helping me to put this together and to long time friend Edgar Cohen and Justin for manning the BBQ pit and cooking all the delicious food. Couldnt of pulled it off with out Justin's days of labor to help me. Thanks to Jeff and Suzy Oliver for providing the music which was a theme track of our lives in the sixties and seventies! We served the tradition Santa Maria style BBQ; Tri-tip, chicken, linguica, beans, bread, salad, grilled veggies and some very yummy deserts, especially Shirley's over the top carrot cake! Everyone schmoozed for many hours and there was of course some pretty crazy stories shared, none of which I had much to do with! Photo albums and other efemera were shared, mostly supplied by Peggy Waggoner who has saved everything from kindergarten. Many of these friends I have known since 1956! Not much can replace the thread that is woven into all of our lives, and links us together as only time can. It truly was a fantastic get together and I was very proud to sponsor all my friends in my backyard. In attendance were; Janet Dalena, Peggy Waggoner, Geoff Welch and wife, Matthew and Cindy Mack, Randi Ellman and her hubby, Jim and Evonne Harper, Jamie and Suzi Gesunhiedt, Jeff and Suzy Oliver, Barry and Patty Weiner, Jim and Grace Veltman, Craig and Sue Wuertz Carol Gendler and partner, and of course Shirley and I. Heres to the next meeting fifty years from now!!! Remember my motto; "Stay Stoked, and Stay Forever Young. " Da Lieb
