Photoessay #2863 - Alumni weekend
Every year I'm notified about the UCSC alumni weekend. And every year I don't go. For a long time it was softball season. This year I'm going on a trip to speak in Connecticut the first week in April.
The alumni weekend is towards the end of April. Wonder if there will be anything for a 40th Crown reunion? Oh wait, must lose 40 pounds before then. Right, that always stands in your way.
Plus I find that I might not remember many people. I did go once in the 1980s. I remember telling people I had 3 kids. Naomi was born in 1989 so.... I walked around with JJ and got quite a kick at how people related to us. As usual, people responded strongly to her (she's got a big presence and personality) and then looked vaguely at me like maybe they might remember me. I thought, wasn't that always the way.
But one year, I'm going to go. If only because of the landscape. I remember thinking the UCSC campus was the most beautiful place I knew when I became a student there. And I still think that.
Plus it might be sunny.
