Notebook

We’ve got to accept that fall
is here when we turn the calen
dar to October. Now I must seri
ously consider moving some
plants into the house and dig
ging up bulbs to store for the
winter.
The past month I have had
three different reunions. It is
amazing to realize that there
are only 43 members of my high
school class living out of 72 orig
inal members. My class mem
bers have been meeting regular
ly ever other month this year for
lunch. So, our big reunion was
simply a gathering of old
friends.
Allen and I had charge of a
"Rural Youth of Lancaster
County" picnic. We reserved a
pavilion in a community park
and engaged a caterer. Our fel
low committee members
planned games and a program.
At first we only had a few paid
reservations, but then the last

we had 61 who were coming.
Most of the afternoon was spent
simply visiting and catching up
on each other's lives. Health
problems are a big concern of
many people our age. So there
was plenty to talk about as we
also bragged about our grand
children.
The third reunion, if you call
it that, was a more intimate
gathering. As my sister, who
lives in Michigan, was visiting
in Lancaster County we five sis
ters were invited to another sis
ter's home for lunch, the prob
lem was that none of us remem
bered all of the route numbers to
get to another county. Thus, we
made a few wrong turns but
eventually got there.
We relived old memories—
some good and some bad and
tired to tell ourselves that we
have been good parents. People
no longer are as reserved as they
were at one time and are freer to
show loving emotions.
