The group in the slide show at the bottom of this post consists of eleven of the girls (yes, we know that now we are old women!) of GCHS 1973 graduating class, who met Saturday, April 10, 2010 in Berea. After our last class reunion a couple of years ago, Many of us vowed to keep in touch. We plan get togethers often and enjoy recalling those days when we roamed the halls of GCHS. This weeks visit to Boone Tavern was in honor of the late Mrs. Phelfry. This is a place where our former teacher took us girls to teach us table manners. In some ways she would have been proud, in others she might have been dissapointed. Especially if she had seen us struggling over which fork to use to eat the spoon bread or the arms and elbows we unconciously placed on the table. Our inability to sit quietly with our hands folded in our laps as we waited for our food, was unlike the visit with our teacher. We would not have dared to laugh out loud or talk as we did on this trip. Our group enjoyed the food, a tour and time spent on the veranda enjoying the sunshine and each other’s company. Just to let you know, I reccomend the fried bologna sandwich and potato chips. It was scrumptious!
Many of our classmates couldn’t make it because of other commitments for the day. We will keep everyone posted when our activity director, Sheryl plans another outing.
