Phat Alba…and that’s why I will never have sex again!

Just back from the impromptu twenty year high school reunion and have to say, I have not laughed so hard in a long time.

We didn’t get to see all our classmates, but made the best with the group we had. It is just amazing to see just how great our whole class was.

Friday started off with me arriving late with my wife to the Kenmare Country Club. Our late dinner with my Grandma Florence put us behind a few minutes. Once we were out there my wife and I were greeted by everyone as if we were long lost relatives. Everyone was incredibly great to us.

Paul King and Carla Bartuska both arrived wearing the “Class of ’89″ shirts we graduated with. We laughed all through the night, as we reminisced about our past.

We moved on later in the evening to the “City Limits” for some adult beverages and Karaoke. Paul King and I belted out some tunes from Steve Miller Band, Bon Jovi, George Jones and AC/DC. Neither one of us remember “The Race Is On” being so fast, but perhaps it was the adult beverages that just made us slower.

Other then the smoky bar that both Kings family and mine were not used to, my wife and I had a fantastic time.

On Saturday we all got together at Tim and Melissa Harris home and had some great food and more laughs. We played some games and enjoyed sitting and catching up with one another.

Some of us decided to head out later in the evening with the intent of making it out to Mouse River park. We all met at “City Limits” but got a very late start for the park. Holly and Dean Brekhus drove us out as far as Tolley and we went into “Wes’s Bar” in Tolley for a drink. We ended up closing the place down and never did make it out to the park.

We went back to Kenmare and back to Harris’s for a fire, but ended up in the garage for a few more hours having fun.

Sunday was a day for sleeping in as we all missed church. We spent some time with my Grandma Florence and had a big lunch with my Aunt Dawn before heading back to Dilworth about 3:30 pm.

We had a great time over the weekend. I can’t thank my classmates enough for all their hard work. I enjoyed the company of all of them and with the talk of a 25 year reunion, I really hope we can get it done.

Thank you Kenmare class of 1989!
