WOW!
It really is like going to the shore without the salt water and sharks.
This mini AEPi Reunion brought 4 old fraternity brothers and their families [which added another generation of brothers] to share a day in the S U N. Did I say S U N it was nearly 100 degrees in the shade, but the water was a mechia. [You are going to have to look that one up - English translation is insufficient for proper interpretation.]
Just a simple 2 1/4 hours from Indianapolis, and we felt like we were a world away. It is kind of a shame . . . the 2 1/4 hour drive only took us a little over 30 years to complete. Yes, I did say 30+ years! How is it that life seems to get in the way of the things that we really need to do to truly enjoy life. Don't get me wrong . . . I do enjoy the work I do, I enjoy my family, my weekly trek to the boat [pontoon boat - not gambling boat], and all of the other humdreds of things I do on a regular basis. But is seems that some of the simple treasures in life like connecting with old friends gets lost in the shuffle.
Life is far too short to lose touch. And friendship is far too valuable to take for granted. I had a great time with great friends. I don't think I am going to wait another 30 years.
