Reunion 1972


☝️My super grandson Cooper Elliston graduated recently!

Fifty years ago, we put on our cap-n-gowns of scarlet and blue and graduated from Conner high school.

Fifty years ago, we worried who would die in Vietnam, not who voted left or right.

Fifty years ago, Watergate was happening, and nobody knew about it, not in August of 1972. We'd heard about the break-in, but the cover-up was not in the news (coz it was happening). 

I was a freshman political science major at NKU, and Dr. Dolive discussed Watergate every day,  God love her!

At any rate, tonight, I shall gather with 185 alumni from 1972's Conner High and Boone County High to celebrate FIFTY years of staying alive. It's going to be so nice to see everyone!

It is a diverse crowd, but we're all just glad we survived the frickin pandemic. Everyone gets along and we're all old as the hills. We don't have the energy not to get along lol. We've indeed seen enough turmoil and are ready to laugh! It's gonna be a literal pickle barrel of smiles (local joke).  😀 

If you would, please say a little prayer for me. I still have to flatiron my wooly mammoth hair, which takes hours at this length! 

Peace, 

Kimmy
