50th Reunion, really?

Actually for my class it will be the 48th, but what the heck.

I’m thinking of going to a class reunion to be held in the DC suburban town of Annandale next month. I’ve had lots of email contact with a fair number of my classmates thanks to my volunteering to be the photo curator of the group for a 60th birthday party they all held back in 2010 which I could not attend. It would be nice to see them in person.

Traveling is tricky, though. I really don’t want to fly and run from gate to gate for 15 hours to get from Honolulu to National Airport, so I’m trying to break the flights up into two parts. Fly to LA, see my cousin and stay overnight, then fly the next day to DC. Do the same thing on the way back: fly from DC to LA, crash at her house again and then fly to Hawai’i the following day. I tried to fiddle my way through the travel websites and got really annoyed with the date functions, so I may try to find one of the few remaining travel agents in town.

I hope this works. It would be fun to see some of those folks again.
