A Highschool Reunion

Olga made a party for her high school friends. Olga went to night school and many of the people in the class were working at the time so were older than her (and still are). We made a big barbecue in the front yard of Pilar. That's Pilar dancing with Olga.

Olga and Pilar

Let's see if I can remember their names - Front: Nelly, Judith, Juanita, Olga, Rosa; Back: Pilar, Rosa, ?, Hortencia. Juanita also has the last name Kanashiro but she and Olga are not related.



Well, the party was a great success. There were three men there and we talked about this and that. Why the evangelist churches are dominating the Catholic church in all of Latin America, for example. Olga and her friends kept up a constantly high decibel level from start to end talking about old times. Olga went to night school and may be the youngest person there. Some of these women are well into their seventies.

This same group met 18 months ago when Olga visited Peru. They met in the center of Lima and went to a restaurant. At the time Pilar's daughter said, "I'd really like to be on that street corner where you meet to see all the termites falling from the dead wood." No dead wood here; hardly a grey hair in the place!!
