what a touching and beautiful tribute....

on a cross country flight yesterday (AA) I watched a wonderful documentary called Boys State. It was shot a couple of years ago in Texas, but so much of what goes on is reminescent of Logan - the summer of '63. I still owe Boyle an apology for voting for Rick Labrum for Governor...I'll never get over being (properly) berated by Norm Anderson... (i was trying to think BIG PICTURE...) lets just say there are a lot of ups and downs... and the kids in Texas, while falling a bit into stereotypes, are marked by some wonderful young men, much as our time in '63 was. I highly recommend this film...

hi Ann... well its only been 60 odd years since that world we knew in what (those of us who lived on 23d east) called Shaws Circle.... happy to see you here.. hope youre well

In the not quite small world dept: this week i was in DC for the opening of a photo exhibition (pictures of the crowd who came to see the Apollo XI launch fifty years ago.) On Thursday i was at the White House hoping to get some access to the President, as i hadn’t been there for a year or so, and am trying to keep my Presidential coverage going forward (it started with a picture of JFK at the hotel Utah in1963) Because it was a tight pool situation (a reduced crew of tv people and cameramen for space reasons) I was unable to attend Trumps presentation of the Medal of Freedom to race driver and business mogul Roger Penske. “But I know Mrs Penske - we went to high school together...”. Well it turned out not to be quite persuasive enough Im afraid. But the former Kathy Hulbert (class of 65 historian) was in the paper and on the wire yesterday in pictures from the ceremony. About 25 years ago, while leaning an Indy car race in Nazareth PA, i walked past the Penske both just as Kathy was leaving. Reintroduced my self after 30+ years, had a hug... and when her kids said something modestly disparaging about “that school you always drive us around to when we go to Salt Lake?” I reminded the kids that “at this very moment, if we really wanted to, your mom and I could belt out the” Olympus Night Song “ .....i waiter for their fears of embarrassment to pass, and just reminded them that, yes, we COULD HAVE sung it - but we let them of easy. I think she enjoyed that moment as much as i did. I was sorry i to miss her this week....

Dave...It's been fun to see you pictures over the years. I hope you're bringing your famous camera to immortalize our 55th get-together.

what terribly sad news about Dave Paulsen.. we'd probably been in touch more on here than in all three years at OHS, but then again that is the charm and gift of these modern ways to communicate. All the things you were too shy, too bashful, too stupid to say to someone, well now you can just do it and you won't be sent to detention. Dave and I were back and forth on some fun & funny posts on Facebook... and like so many who have gone, you simply can't believe that another one of us has been taken so early. It's just plain sad.
