No doubt this group looks demonstratively more “mature” than thirty plus years ago but also let there be no doubt the joie de vivre persists, the enthusiasm, the energy and the bonds of friendship are stronger today than ever.
As in previous years this one was filled with time on the slopes, card games, relaxing happy hours and delectable gourmet meals prepared by three of our very own.
All was perfect … Perfect for four days and then email messages from airlines … Email messages indicating our flights had been cancelled because of heavy blizzard conditions in the Denver area. So, as I write this blog entry, we sit in a hotel near the airport enjoying more time with friends but hoping ” stranded in Denver ” soon becomes a safe flight home to Little Rock and our families and friends in Arkansas.
