Fox River Trail biking

Today we met Len and Marlene and Dave and Marty and biked 16 miles. The others had afternoon commitments so we cut the ride a bit short, in order to have time for the most important part of the get-together -- a nice meal at Colonial Restaurant -- where I ran into a retired colleague, Leslie, a fellow English Department chair from our sister school, Palatine High School. It was wonderful briefly reconnecting again after 7 years!



Afterwards, we took care of some errands and gave blood at LifeSource.

I agree that the most important part of any get-together is eating, and you seem to do that a LOT, I've noticed. Running into people you've known from the past is fun when you remember their names and previous context (s) ... not so fun if you can't remember their names and they've already greeted you by yours!
