When the spring air hits, a fever spikes to pack it in and get away by going back in time with old buddies.
The RFH Class of ’78 guys in this crew have been friends forever. Decades ago, they started their own little inner circle tradition of taking an annual camping trip to keep their ties binding over the years. Unbreakable is what the bond has remained.
The group has been somewhat altered over the years and one is now gone, but they keep the getaway reunion going — except, perhaps, in the pandemic year.
The guys: Tom Campbell, now gone, George Day, RFH yearbook photographer, Tom Hollyer and Mike Grady.
There’s a hitch and a wagon, so a pop-up trailer and/or tent can’t be far away. And, you know, in the 1970s, where there was a wagon and a hitch, there was a way — to hit the trail.
George is the photographer of the bunch, so we’re not sure who snapped this shot, but George sent it to R-FH Retro. Then again, timers on cameras was a fun new gadget to play with back then. So …
One thing’s for sure: Where there’s an RFHer tradition, there’s a good time and a lifetime bond. What exactly do you think these guys were up to in the woods on their first trip? This one?
Cutoffs were in back then. Now, who has the best legs? Bug spray, anyone? What kind of wagon was this and what do you think was in it for the gala trip?
Thanks to George Day for, yet again, another classic!

What would Teacher Appreciation Day be without a little ode to those who unwittingly set a writer on her twisted path to write — about them?
They are the English teachers at RFH. Back in the 1970s, they comprised quite the crew of educators. They taught us how to communicate more effectively. They chided us for using improper grammar. They expected better when they knew we were capable of it. They grabbed onto the small details that mattered in stringing a sentence together effectively.
