Pictures with extra children belong to Gary & Tiffany Francis. Some of you may remember them from Covington High. Tiffany used to be a Sandifer.

Jon Barton is going to stay with us. He's coming down from Atlanta for the reunion.

We look forward to seeing you all as well...all the way from England! Thought you might be interested in Jon.

Hey Mark,

3 things

1. You could still almost pass for a Senior at CHS. You look exactly the same.

2. What a great looking bunch of kids! (I bet they're smart, too..its not fair!)

3. Tell Jon I can't wait to see him, and I want some info about his last 20 years!

See you in October.

Peace,

Lou

Thanks for the compliments (: I'll e-mail Jon and see if I can get him to post. I sure can't run like in high school but I have to admit...I do feel better. All that running meant too many aches and pains. But the weight is creeping up now.

It is really good to hear from you and I look forward to seeing you at the reunion and catching up.

I am so glad to hear Jon will make it.....I have no info on Jon at all from his last 20 yrs. I just remember his sweet, quiet, gentle spirit. I never thought I would hear Mark Leach worry about his weight! Any word if Joelle is coming to the reunion?

Maybe it's the jeans

Shrinking every year...right? Or having a wife that can cook. Sixty miles a week tends to keep one thin. I'm only averaging 6 now.

Wow, you look just like you did in High School...can I get some of whatever it is you've been taking? Kudos for you!

Thanks

There is 50 lbs more of me since 1986 but I guess its not all fat. My wife's a good cook so I can blame some of it on her. The Lord's been good to me and I think having 4 kids has kept me young at heart. A sweet wife and parent's who have aged well doesn't hurt. Never been into abusing the body either...except for too much running; but I cut that out in college. I gave up health food in college as well...and have eaten like a normal person ever since.

Hey, didn't you used to date Tim Moore? If so, what happened to you two...he seemed like a great guy. Do you know what happened to him? Last I saw him he had graduated with his MBA at Southeastern. You're dating an English dude, right? You're a Technology dudett? I'm in IT too. Self-employed consultant mainly diddling around with small businesses. Did do some corporate stints (Royal Dutch Shell, Hibernia Bank) but found the scene too constraining...though it did have benefits I miss. Are you making the reunion?
