Exhaustion 101

The great class reunion of 1964 is history. The guys who have changed the least were Mr. Nyman; "Toots" Nyman, he of the very dry and satirical sense of humor. The other is Dr. John Hendricks. He's still buff and humble. We all found out he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame------ten years ago. I'd say that's darned good considering, while he was at Iowa, the most games they won in a season was three. Toby Anderson who was in the Air Force then worked for the railroad also fits into the 'looks the same as' category. Tob was a high school linebacker and was recruited to play at the Univ. of South Dakota. He could still play, I do believe.
MJ Hawkeye is old and he's tired. Maybe it was the mental stress of making sure everything came out okay. Mostly, we sat around the campfire after dinner telling stories. As if the jocular banter wasn't enough to complete the day the real fun began when we all said, "Goodnight at 10 PM," and liked it. The young people of 2012 are getting preped to go out at 10PM. What the heck happened to us?
The last of the crew left at 5PM this afternoon. Would you like to know what I'm going to do now? I think it's called, taking a nap.
