Day 36, "Every picture has a story"
WAY back to the early 60s is this picture!  I am guessing the school year 1963/64 as that is the year Rutland came in and the next year Margaret moved .  I know Mr Wohler left Sargent Central a short time after we graduated in 1965.  He moved to Bird Island MN and recently was inducted into the Minnesota basketball hall of fame as he had a very successful coaching career.  He took us to the ND state HS BB tournament in the winter of 1964 which was held in Minot.  I was not in the starting lineup but I remember I did score in one of the games!  Here Margaret, Pat, Larry and I are acting like we are important class officers!  Margaret moved after our junior year, Larry was successful in business as well as HUNTING and I THINK Pat married and is living in MT.  Mr. Wohler was born in Cayuga but went to Lidgerwood HS.  Larry and I were from Cayuga, Pat from Rutland and Margaret from Cogswell.  Actually I should say I was from Geneseo but went to Cayuga school!  I would say we all look pretty innocent and that was probably true at that time.  While in HS I did go to things like homecoming dances and the prom but not once did I go to a student party at someone's house.  Not sure if anyone did back in those days.  As for my kids and grandkids, it may be a different story "for sure"!  I like to use the term "for sure" as that is one of Elspeth's favorite saying.

We have match #4 today and it is away.  I have 6 players but it looks like next week I will be a court short.  I am thinking about asking the other team if they have the same problem.  

I played too much tennis yesterday.  Practiced my serve for a while, then a guy asked if I wanted to hit cross court and then I played a 90 minute match.  For good measure Karl and I hit for about 40 minutes in the afternoon.  Today, only the match.  It is supposed to be 88 today so I told the guys that if they wanted to NOT wear the dark blue shirt that was fine.  This fall tennis is fun but pretty relaxed while the winter is a bit more serious.

My FP went down to the bottom of the cup a couple of hours ago so time to stop.
