We celebrated the “80thbirthdays of us all” with a Zoom Social, Oct.1.
The 32 registrants could choose between breakout rooms with the flowing themes:
1. Best things about being this age (80 or almost!)
2. Good ways to celebrate – how did you celebrate?
3. Exercise with purpose and panache
4. Travel with ease
5. New passions and pursuits
6. Challenges we encounter
7. Open
A number of classmates put on their fancy hats (some hand-decorated!)
Our toast:
To all of us, a group quite grand
A very smart, curious band
Leading lives both kind and weighty
Now lift we a glass to eighty
May long our friendships ever thrive
Here's to our mighty '65!
Several had made a mug cake from the recipes sent out.
And all --with occasional aid from Bev B Harrison or Sallie W Abbas-- found their way into the groups discussing the topics of their choice.
It was an enthusiastic social gathering from geographically-scattered places.
