What was Cheryl’s 50th High School reunion like at the final-day picnic?

It was an experience i am cherishing for Cheryl.

And as a bonus, i (we) cherish every Pixar premiere we get to watch as a family of three.

How will i prepare for the third-day 50th High School reunion finale picnic?

First and foremost, like i said at the beginning of today’s posts, i’ll be sporting my signature growth mindset, laced with fun, joy, and moderation. And humility.

This is Cheryl’s time to shine.

i am in the shadows, grateful to witness Cheryl’s organizational-genius.

Ps. i will lead with simply being here if Cheryl needs anything.

Blood pressure results — New BP device. Did test three times for consistency. Wanted to see if the Pennsylvania device mirrored the results i get in Florida. It does.

What memories do i think will happen from this three-day 50th High School reunion?

i will remember that it was Florida-hot!

Older Pennsylvania homes often do not have Central AC. Cousin Michael’s house does not. We did have a bedroom window unit and it was a godsend.

Note: The heat wave was extraordinarily not ordinary.

Husky dog — Kiska is the 6th Husky mascot, since Dieruff opened in 1959.

17-second video: About to start official ceremony.

What should i expect at Cheryl’s 50th High School reunion?

For starters my only expectation is to see Cheryl have the time of her life, at this stage in her life…

Fun. Emotion. Joy. Fellowship…

“Louis E. Dieruff (1889-1964) devoted 47 years to Allentown education, starting in 1916. He was a principal for 21 years and later a district administrator. Louis E. Dieruff High School, initially planned as a junior high in 1957, opened in 1959. A planetarium (1965) and classrooms/library (1970) were added. The mascot, “Kiska” the Husky, honors WWII Allentown servicemen captured on Kiska Island. “Husky Pride,” a value system promoted by former Principal Meilinger, unites the school community. School colors are blue and gray.”
