Re: Vallentine


 

Gary F. from San Ramon. Thank you again, Steve, for pushing us to come out of our hiding places and communicate with one another. For February, please don't forget that Lincoln Mintz and Gary were the youngest ones in the class and were born in the month of February. And to Gary T., yes, I feel your pain when it comes to trying to do the normal maintenance chores we used to do. I probably ignore tasks I used to do, including climbing up into trees to prune them. And stairs now require a conscious effort to conquer them. During this pandemic my wife is cleaning here and there and re-organizing stuff, but I find myself just doing a lot more reading. Miss Jacopetti at Roosevelt would be happy since she complained to my mother in 8th grade that I wasn't doing much reading. If anything, my wife and I still try to do our morning walks, rain or shine, and they go for 1 - 2 miles. The AARP magazine reminds us to keep moving, and our walks are important. Claire, it's good hearing from you, too, and are you familiar with a federal magistrate judge in Portland named John Acosta? John was my student when he was in 8th grade, and he recently turned 65. And we all know what we've recently turned. Shirley and I received our 1st vaccine a couple weeks ago, and our 2nd is coming Feb. 16. More reason to remember the month of February. Everyone, please stay safe and healthy, and continue to wear your masks. We'll eventually get past this. Gary F.

Hi All, Everything okay up here in Portland. February 14th is Oregon Admission day. Gary: I have lived in a condo for 17 years. I like it. no home or landscape maintenance. everything is done for me.
I almost wrote last Friday as that was the 62nd anniversary of our high school graduation, but getting to the group website seemed more effort than I was willing to expend. I guess Gary stung me with his comment about not wanting to keep in touch anymore.
I hope all are well and on their way to vaccinations.
