Thomson High School Class of 1968

Original Village Idiot Membership CertificateI’ve made it to Thomson, Georgia for the class reunion. Hey Redman, more than a few folks had Masters Shirts on. Maybe a source of tickets.  The old high school  is the Middle School now and the old Junior High School (that’s what we called middle school back then) looks to be a Day Care Center.  The ladies of the class all look great.  A few single girls in the crowd too.  The most changed person was probably me.  I’ve had some weight gain over the years.  Find of the Night came from Jim Bradshaw who lives in Rome, Georgia now.  He had the original certificate of membership to the Village Idiots, a social club we had to sponsor dances  at the National Guard Armory.  More from the road later.
