The Patriots gather again

Well, it’s finally here…the 50th high school reunion of the Milpitas High School Patriots!

The photo below shows half of the turnout from my 20year reunion. My primary memory of that night was the difficulty I felt in trying to reconcile how not old I felt with the fact that so many years had already passed.

I was living in Switzerland in 2004, so there was no question of attending the 30-year reunion.

Which brings me to now…and the fact that tomorrow I drive down to Milpitas to connect and celebrate this interesting landmark with my former classmates.

What a trip.
