Actually, they never did give us the key to the padlock. The mechanism to open
it once the padlock was removed, moved up so you can get in, and Duane was able
to hand turn the bolts holding that mechanism to the gate. So, anyway,
tonight, a fence guy stopped by to talk to us about making the gate easier to
push, and he cut off the padlock and hung it on the fence, in case the guy who
put it there comes by to get it. It’s all kind of twisted up, but it hung on
the fence just fine. ha ha. This guy will be coming back Sunday to make the
gate easier, and he said when he’s done we’ll be able to push it with one
finger. I can’t wait. I’m worn out before I even get into the truck to go
anywhere, the way it is. The rock just piles up, and when Duane runs over the
track I make in it with the gate, then it’s even more difficult, and it sticks,
etc. Then I have to throw my whole weight into it, and with the heat, not my
cup of tea. Trouble of it is, I’m not losing weight either. Hard to believe.
The way I’m working, I should have lost 50 pounds by now. The shower feels
real good at the end of the day though. Well enough of my belly aching. Take
care all.

Well, I’m very late to respond to this one. So, happy 45th to all my 1972
classmates on the list. Yeah, a whole lot has transpired in the past 45 years.
However, like others have responded, I remember our graduation day on June
14th. Yeah, the big clap of thunder making me jump in the middle of singing
Scarboro Fair with Merrilee. Who could forget that! We even had tornado
warnings, but the graduation went on. The Lord kept us safe from it all. Well,
except for that clap of thunder. smile. Thanks for remembering, and if I
hadn’t been moving, I could have responded on time. Yes, this is the first
official email message sent by me from my new home. Whew! Just got the
computer together and online about an hour ago. Anyway, it was truly a
wonderful graduation ceremony.

Steve,
While it's now Thursday when I'm reading your message, thanks for the
wonderful reminder. I remember that night so clearly, just as though it
were truly yesterday. Man! It surely was hot in our graduation gowns. A
lot has transpired over 45 years, and even though the school will never
be again, it will live on and stand tall in our hearts and minds
forever. Through this list which you and rich have thankfully created,
we will always be MSB brothers and sisters, a special family ever more!
Parts of the school may have been torn down and divided, but its
Raiders will live on in history.
