Reunion 1979 - 2011

Arriving in DE, yippee!

I have never attended a high school or college reunion, but after spending two days with two friends from my early years in Boston, I see what all the fuss in about. Although Sherri Schaeffer nee Ciuffetelli, Patrice Dunn nee Bonsignore and I (Mary Murphy nee Kerrick) have different memories of the exact sequence of our time living together, and it was only in fact for about two years, our friendship has spanned 32 years to date, 3 weddings, and 9 children. Our best recollection of our last get together was about 20 years ago -- we had a LOT to catch up on. We ate, we talked, we drank, we talked,  we talked and talked and talked over good food, good wine, and beautiful accommodations.

What I learned: never underestimate the power of Christmas cards, Patrice loves puns, Scott is a great cook, CRS (can't remember s***), don't wait so long between reunions!

Sitting on the Amtrak Acela Boston bound train zooming along on a blue sky day smiling at the memories. Happy that I'm not in a car zooming along I-95.
