Pictures from Reunion SSFHS 1975


I promised to post pictures from the SSFHS 75 reunion I attended in an earlier post. Here are pictures of myself and the three long time friends I saw at the reunion.
In the first picture are Jenny and Tess.
And then there is Cindy in picture 2.
Considering we are all pretty close in age, the women are gorgeous! However, I have aged less gracefully. Boy do I look shabby in these pictures. Gotta do something about that...
Here is a link to more reunion pictures.

SSF High School Reunion

That was until three days before the reunion. I got a last reminder email from Cindy and strolled up to the reunion website where I came upon a scrolling list of names of people that were planning to attend. I didn't recognize most of the names but two stood out, Teresa Zabaljauregui and Jennifer Herbert. Tess' mom, Gloria, and my mom were close friends and our families were practically raised together.

Well, I just couldn't believe it. As it turned out, Camilla was going up to lake Tahoe with her book club, so I was free and clear to go to the reunion! Talked to Cindy, pay at the door and I'll see you there. Got my mom to ask Murna for Tess' telephone number. Got ahold of Tess, who was surprised to hear from me. She said her two brothers, Ernie and Rafael were going too, as well as Laura (Murna's daughter) and Jenny (flying down from Kent, WA, just to attend). The party was at the SFO Clarion Hotel, so I arranged to stay at my parents house in SSF and I was set!
Needless to say, I was a bit apprehensive as I have not aged well, having gained much weight and arthritis has fused my neck vertebrae in a permanently hunched position. Well, fuck it, how could I pass up this chance to see these three women.
So I went and it was a blast! Pictures to come...
