2022 Duxbury High School Class Reunion 50th!
Re: 2022 Duxbury High School Class Reunion 50th!
No, it is hard to believe it has been 50 years since i have been back to Mass. First of all, I never thought I would ever leave there, then when my parents moved away - I just moved with them after a terrible break up. Said I will never go back. Now I just miss it there. Going to be nice to go home and sit on the beach once more. Going to be nice to see everyone once more.

I've been back a few times, in part to enjoy the beauty of the place, but for other reasons, too. Visited with my "second family" in 1993, right up to my last-born as a newborn, my husband and his parents, and we visited my grandmother, "Nana" Blanchard in her house on Lover's Lane, so near the high school. In 1989 I went to the World Science Fiction Convention in Boston, and dropped by to visit Nana then, too, and got to chat with my Uncle Howie -- maybe still Fire Chief then? -- and cousin Tommy, and my Aunt Rita, who asked me if, while I traced the family genealogy, I could find a connection to the Aldens "because they throw the best parties at Alden Family reunions". I eventually did find the line, through the Hunts and the Wadsworths, but too late for Aunt Rita, unfortunately. When I visited that next time, with family, Nana was the last of the Blanchard line left in town. And now there are none left. Still a place I'm glad to call home.
Your mention of sitting on the beach, Janice, calls to mind one reason I probably won't be going to the big reunion. I'm new to needing a wheelchair to get around, and it's still a bit overwhelming to me. I laugh when I imagine myself mired in the sand and ruining the chair's gears.
