20-Year Reunion Butte High School Class of 1992

Dean, a good friend from high school I hadn't seen for 20 years.

I had my 20-year Butte High School class reunion this summer, in Butte in mid-August. It was a great two days. Our class still knows how to have a good time.

I was a bit nervous beforehand, but it took no time to feel connected again with my class mates. Dividing lines have blurred as twenty years of adulthood have left no one unscathed.

I knew I'd have fun, but was surprised by just how good it felt to get together again with everyone. It was easy to pick up where I'd left off with folks, as if ten or twenty years hadn't gone by, as if at the core we're all still the same people, a thought I find very reassuring as the years pile on.

Another old friend, Clancy Whitworth, his wife Shelby, who I went to grade school with, and their family.

Yet another couple of good old high school friends, Briand and Shawn.

Still more class mates, Jeremy, Cara (another grade school class mate), Josh, Kara (the party planner), Lisa, ...

I met Jen at her cousin Ben's -- a member of my graduating class -- wedding almost 20 years ago.

Baby Got Back, karaokee.
