This last weekend I had the opportunity to travel to my old high school, Columbia Military Academy (now just Columbia Academy) to help the board prepare for an upcoming reunion in August. All of us old geezers met Friday evening for dinner at Legends Restaurant in Columbia where old times and drinks were put to rest. A Saturday morning meeting followed before the school provided us with lunch. Then back to Mobile.
