Entry 33 of 47 | show all | print this entry

'Breakie' was in the large tent outside our dorm - sadly nothing really healthy was on the menu as it was all sweet breads/cakes and no fruit. The day consisted of a number of activities and H found time to visit the Dartmouth Archives to do some more research on the family. The staff were wonderfully helpful and she found some wonderful treasures which have been copied and are safely stowed in her luggage. The Hatch family were certainly 'movers and shakers' in NH and B was so excited to read the docs. Late from spending too much time in the archives ... we had lunch with the class of '58.
B visited his old fraternity house but was disappointed to find it in a terrible state [He can elaborate further] and here he is. The fraternity makes a pig sty seem friendly and well kept!Unbelieveable filth and trash. In the basememnt they play a game called "beer pong" in which you try with ping pong balls to knock over glasses of beer with the expected results of a sticky floor and pingpong table and pervasive odor! All I can say is it wasn't like that when I lived there!
We headed off to Hood Museum for drinks and a showing of some special items before the final dinner and time to say goodbye to new and special friends. It seems somehow the class is growing! There were more people in the fieldhouse in which the final dinner was held than I think we graduated with, or perhaps my eyes are reflecting my years.  Next day... graduation!
B has had a great time and so enjoyed the people who have complimented his 50 years of hisory in the Dartmouth book. It's been a special time for him and he's been so happy.
