Can you be on Island-Time anywhere, and anytime?

While i say a resounding, Yes!

Truth is it depends on who you are, and where you are in life.

Reminder: No male on my Dad’s side made it past 60 years old.

i’m much closer to 70 than 60.

This, to me, is an inspiring miracle.

Thank you cosmos, universe, energy, light, and 4.5 billion years of getting me to here, today, now. So blessed.

Saying that to say this…

i’m grounded in how blessed i am to live and write the way i live and write.

Bonus: Also grounded in why i live and write the way i live and write.

Early Summer Trip day 2, home

Officially graduated, 2019. Thanks for being here “Uncle Mike”. And thanks for letting us stay with you every time we’re in Allentown. Pennsylvania visits are rare these days.

Will today be remarkable and fun?

Should be.

How can it not be?

We have a late afternoon ‘call-time’ to be at Allentown’s PPL Center.

PPL stands for Pennsylvania Power and Light.

Since 2014, it’s an 8,500-seat event center.

Tonight Cheryl’s class of 1976 will pay tribute to their High School’s graduating class of 2026.

Note: We are not expected to stay for the entire Graduation ceremony.

What will it be like to attend Cheryl’s 50th High School (HS) reunion?

The first time i visited Allentown was 1979. Met Cheryl’s parents and saw a great comedian at an outdoor fairgrounds stadium.

Cheryl had recently called off her engagement to be married to a fellow HS classmate. And i thought i had found the girl i would eventually marry.

Now here we are, Summer 2026…

From fellow RA’s on the top (6th) floor of a co-ed dorm to best friends for 47 years now.

Funny how life works.

June 10, home

Disney fun
Attention to detail and a ton of fun. With all the serious effort to pull off a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime event, this will be my contribution.

There are events Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Can’t wait.

Always dreamed of a High School reunion that wasn’t stereotypically loud, drunk, and forgetful.

Ps. Thank you Cheryl, Mark, and Joanne.
