Demetrius' new animation demo

Sorry for the shameless plug, but, I'm not currently teaching or anything, hubby has a new demo posted, and one does what one can. Thanks for indulging me. ;)

REUNIONS

Today I'll leave our annual Family Reunion early and arrive a little late to our 40th Class Reunion.
Gonna be an interesting and emotional day.  {{{ {{ { Please send me good vibes! } }} }}}

First one in the city

Wearin' all those grass stained jeans

Nothing is forgotten, everyone is pleased.

Someone got his hair cut

The girls have lots to say

His friends had felt more comfortable

With it worn the other way

And I don't know if I'll see you again.

 
Next one at the old house

Snow is on the ground

Photographs and wine are passed around.

Someone toasts an absent friend

Another takes his seat.

They gather round the dying fire

But the circle's not complete

And I don't know if I'll see you again.

 
Last one by the highway

Wind blows through thin smiles.

Someone made a wrong turn

Missed a joke by miles.

Someone got her hair cut

A tear is in her eye

But no one even comments

 Except to say 'goodbye'

And I don't know if I'll see you again.

Weather !

Just had to share this screen capture!  It shows a line of storms approaching.  My house is represented by the blue dot, and I love how the rain above my location adds punctuation!  Most appropos given how much flooding we've been having.

Today Dr. Rawson, benefactor of the local Library, turns 100 years old! (We're having a party for him on Saturday.)

The photo on the left cracked me up!  If you're 100 you can do whatever you darn well please!
