Building Memories~ Day 11


Great to be with good friends and family whenever we are back to Gibson City, Illinois.  
Population 3,500!


I just love the fact that this small town of Gibson City has an annual “Greyhounds” Class Reunion for EVERY CLASS to meet at the center of their town’s Park Pavilion.

It was so organized with programs, nametags, cold drinks, and food and even with their local radio station there on stage.Each class would meet at their designated area to meet & greet and catch up with each other.  

It was charming to see the good old- fashioned social networking at its best with no technology required!  So, move over FB….

I was amaze to read their program, welcoming from Class of 1940 to 1993!  It is still such a heartfelt All-American treasure to experience a small community bond in these days and ages!

I just adore Mid-Western people as I’ve lived and traveled many places from West Coast to East Coast!  I just wish the winter wasn’t so harsh for this tropical girl to even consider living there! Oh well… 

Heading back to Cleveland today, tired  and sleepy from our additional classmates late night, partying into the wee hours but it was so worth it to be with friends and family to keep on filling up our memory tanks!

Until next year my dear friends and family…

We love you all!
