Time has marched on and we find ourselves nugged into Graduation Day and we see our official Finish Line Scribe on the 11th. It was like passing the twenty-six mile marker on a 26.2 mile marathon, which Merle has done nine times. The days leading up to Graduation are spent in a euphoric state. Spectators will be distributed within days and the school picnic at the City Park springs us from school an entire day. As life would have it, we are looking at each other in cap and gowns and the lights on the football field are about to brighten as we enter the next chapter in the book of life and continue our journey. We begin to understand the saying "It's not the destination but the journey that makes life exciting". So true - the excitement is in earning a diploma, not so much owning one. Well done Class of '65, have a successful half century and we'll see you at the Lockhorn on June 27th, 2015.
