Reunion Couples
Just off the top of my head, I can think of five marriages that came out of the Madison High School Class of 1977. All five marriages are still intact. I'm pretty sure that beats the crap out of our national average, and I think we might be able to draw some interesting conclusions from this fact.
I'm blogging from Madison County this morning. The sky is white with heat, and the mountains are ghosted with haze. Given that Mom's house isn't air-conditioned--and that my entire life is air-conditioned in Tennessee--I slept fairly well, except for the onset of head cold.
Early this afternoon, I take Mom to the Walnut School reunion, where she was a member of the class of 1949, I believe. I went to Walnut School from first grade through eighth, and, believe it or not, Mom and I had the same first grade teacher. And believe it or not, that teacher, Miss Guthrie, is still with us!
On with the day. . . .

Go Miss Guthrie! That's incredible! That's great about the marriages...I'm sure you're right about it beating the national average.
My fifth and sixth grade teacher, Mrs. Ramsey, was also there. I think she graduated from Walnut High School in 1929 or early in the 1930s. Amazing!
