I called my old high school a couple of weeks ago to inquire about my 20th class reunion (class of ’84… yeah, I’m old).

I wasn’t able to go to my 10th reunion because I was poor beyond belief (college has done wonders to my income!).

Today, I got an email from “Connie” (who’ll I’ll have to look up in my year book) giving me the skinny of the upcoming event.

It takes place in my home town of Huron, SD on July 2 & 3. It looks like we’ll be meeting at the Elks (where ever the hell that is) on Friday, then on Saturday we’re going to Lake Ravine in the morning, the the Sportsman’s Club (again… I have no idea where the hell that is either) in the evening. There’s also the mention of a possible golf outing… so I’m gonna need to bring my clubs.

I hope they provide maps.

Of course, the whole trip depends on how my back heals up from the surgery I have scheduled for the monday after next.

I haven’t been back to Huron in 20 years. I doubt anyone I still know (or care to see) still lives there. I’ve decided to just speend the weekend there, then head back to the Black Hills to play the tourist (Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwood, etc.). At least that part for sure should be fun!
