New Reading Material

I'm not sure if anyone checks this blog out anymore, but I thought I'd make one last update before the big Hoo Rah is a few weeks. I have emailed most of you and called some of you. Other's have mysteriously changed their telephone numbers since I last contacted them. Though I think I won't take it personally! Big news! Carrie Harris heard about this somehow and called up David. Or emailed him. I really should take notes when I discuss these things. She is a specialized pediatric nurse, I believe, in a hospital in Calgary. I think she is going back to school to become a physician. Ask David about her when you see her. She wishes she could come down to the reunion, but she is working that weekend. Hmmm, who else. Brad Beck - nearly impossible to contact. I do have two numbers and his phone was once answered by a nameless female, but I have never had the good fortune of speaking with him. I will give his mom the information and maybe, just maybe, he'll show up. I was sort of hoping he and Michael Aackland would be able to come - it would feel like old times. If we were ever sitting in a classroom in alphabetical order, it was Aackland, Baril, Beck. In fact, I still have a box that Brad made in Mr. Ririe's woodshop class. He gave it to me one day after school and I can't believe I saved it after all these years. It has some of my old 80's jewelry and other treasures from the past - though, what I really wish I saved were the notes that we all passed back and forth - now those would be worth something! I did talk to Chris Pilling the other day. He is doing well and sends his best and said to say hello. He was just in Magrath for a family wedding and didn't think he'd make it up for Magrath days. Though the thought of riding on a float was somewhat appealing.... Just in case the Colin Yeh that I found in Honk Kong, who looked suspiciously like the Colin that we knew and loved, was the real original deal, I sent him the information to the reunion. He says it isn't him, but I really wish it was. It would be great to see him again. Send positive thoughts out into the universe; maybe the real Colin will find us! Martha, Renee, Doug...I don't know. I have tried. I really have. I have the phone bill to prove it. Send more universe thoughts. And in case any of you addicts out there need a new habit, Dave set us on to the stunningly addictive Facebook. Check it out and join the group MHS Rules. We stumbled onto Mr. Steven Brockway. Man...technology is cool So, till later. Hope you've enjoyed your little update. Oh, and don't forget to RSVP to Tobi - number over on the sidebar. Make it snappy - she needs to get the numbers in to the chefs...or someone. Ciao
