Chicago 2008 - 03/06/2008

On a not-so-cold (thank God) March night, six intrepid (seven including an entertaining and loyal spouse) Class of ‘79 Chicago residents met at their now-traditional mini-reunion haunt to toast a few, eat a lot and catch up. In attendance, from left to right, were Jon Peabody, Mark Rader, Louisa Guthrie, Peter Greulich, Nancy Wilder, Marlow Hicks and Julie Hicks. As happens every year, we thoroughly enjoyed catching up and spent our usual 5+ hours together - telling stories, sharing family news and just enjoying each other’s company. News on the career front was particularly interesting as only two of us are still in the same career and job position as last year; one has taken on a new position at a new company and three are in job search mode after downsizings and voluntary sabbaticals. We look forward to this evening each year, and although most of us hadn’t known each other well at Dartmouth, we have now become fast friends - if only for this one time a year we see each other. Looking forward to our 30th reunion!!
