Homecoming

Homecoming....a time when a certain group of people come back together after a long time apart. Homecoming in a small town is an exciting week! Yards being rolled, Homes and Businesses "Paint the Town Purple", old friends, football games, reunions, Parades...complete with a Gopher. Yes...good times are to be had this Homecoming week in my small town. This year however, Homecoming has become a time of Reflection. A time to look back in my life and remember when I was still young. Remember the friends that I had in High School and wonder whatever became of them. Remember the many, many times we rolled yards, oreo'd cars, stayed out too late and laughed ourselves silly. Football games and first dates.....Wow....it's been 24 years ! Thankfully, those 24 years have been good ones and I'm still friends with many of my High School buddies. We still talk about the crazy things we did and ask each other "Do you remember when?"
