just imagine not seeing some childhood friends for over 40 years and then meeting in a restaurant in NYC on a friday night.....well my brother and I did just that...it was everything i expected and more.......i mean 40 years is a long time.......and the one thing that remained the same with all of us was our eyes...that was the first thing i recognized we we started to feel each other out....all we had to go by were memories and old photos.....we meet about a dozen old mates and it was as if time stood still on us....it did not take long for the girls to huddle together and the guys to smile and hug..( yeah guys could hug to you know)....... when my dear friend michele started to laugh i remembered that laugh as if it was yesterday.......photos, year books, good food and drinks.....and old classmates..... priceless......it will go down in my book as a night to cherish ......although were were there to celebrate our 7th -9th grade class ( we skipped 8Th) and to figure out a way to launch an even bigger reunion.. to some of us it put a closure on the mystery as to how everyone was doing and for that I will be forever grateful that i made that trip.....
