On Thursday afternoon, we are off to Upstate New York for my high reunion We will stay the TRADITIONS which is at the old IBM Homestead and is now a hotel-conference center since IBM moved out and sold the property. In fact, they are putting a bid in to build the next casino in the area.

On , we will tour the old high school to see what changes have been made to it - we were the first class to complete 4 years in the building. Friday evening there is a get together at a local pub as a On Sunday, there will be a golf game for those so inclined My wife will have lunch with some former colleagues while I visit friends and family. Saturday evening we will have our dinner with a silent auction and dancing. After a Farewell Brunch, we will return home.

Looking forward to seeing my classmates and renewing friendships. We have found out that our two foreign exchange students will attend - one from Guatemala and one from Germany. Should be a fun weekend.
