This has been a year to celebrate a number of 50 year anniversaries! The number one 50 for me was graduating from high school. Being a 69er was a really cool deal. I was very glad to leave high school, as I remember hating school. But, what a cool deal for me to return to Charles M Russell High School in Great Falls Montana and visit with some of the other outstanding grads. And, to take my wife with me was a great joy.
Our reunion was July 19. The following day, July 20, was the 50th anniversary of the moon walk of Apollo 11. Two days later, I arrived at EAA’s awesome convention at Oshkosh, WI, which was also the 50th held there.

And of course, here comes Woodstock! What a year of 50’s…
