A Class Act!

Can you believe it?? This will be our seventeenth year of giving scholarships to deserving grads of South Houston High School. To date, The Great and Giving Class of '68 will have given $50,500 to 36 recipients. Think on that for a moment...$50,000 given back to our wonderful alma mater by looking forward to help students three, four, and now five decades since we graduated. Wow!

But funds have dwindled, sadly. This year, for example, we can only offer one $1,500 scholarship. We're requesting assistance with that, plus asking each and every SHHS68 alum to thoughtfully consider what we can contribute to what may well be the Best Thing we've done together as a class. How much further might we go?!

Thanks to those alums who've carried us this far...and welcome to those who hear this call for help. To give, click on the DONATE button here. Or, you can also donate by going to any Wells Fargo Bank and contribute...just specify the SHHS 68 Scholarship Fund.

Please encourage at least one fellow alum you stay in contact with to help, too. FIFTY YEAR REUNION COMIN' UP...let's wear it PROUD! GoTrojans!!

Today's Featured Biography

 

Brenda Conway Spivey

Our permanent home is in Brazoria, Texas. We have been in Valdez, Alaska since Aug., 2010. Robert and I have been married for 41 years in March, 2012. we have 2 sons and 2 grandsons. My parents still live in the same house where we grew up but everyone else has scattered. Truett is in Deer Park, TX, Cynthia is in Pennsylvania, and Bret is in Longview, TX. Robert has retired twice already but decided to come to Alaska to work a job. It's been interesting. At this time (2-1-12) we've had record snow....25 feet with 2 months to go. I've been told that in about a year we're going to St.Thomas, USVI to live for about a year. Robert says it never gets cold there...this from the person who sits outside in the cold to watch it snow!!
Today is 11-10-2012. It's snowed twice this week...2-3"...but it's cold enough to stick. Then the wind comes and blows it away! It doesn't get to the record cold here. Robert said it was 8* coming home from work two mornings ago. Then the temp went back up to 33*. Hopefully we won't have 26' of snow this year.



January 3, 2014
We left Valdez, Alaska for the last time on May 1, 2013. We drove home to Texas from Valdez through Canada, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, and finally Texas. It took almost a week and was a total of 4996 miles with a side trip to Yellowstone. We were home in Texas until June 18 when we then boarded a plane to St. Lucia, W.I. in the Southern Caribbean. We are within sight of Martinique and a little northwest of Barbados.
We lease a 3 BR, fully furnished apt. on the side of a mountain for $1020 a mo. including water, cable, and internet. Not too bad after the expense of Alaska. We are on the middle floor of the house with an apt next to ours. The floor below us has a chef, from one of the resorts, and his family living there. The Mexican Ambassador and his wife live on floor above us.
This island is beautiful and the people are the friendliest we've met...except for Texas, of course! We bought a dune buggy (street legal here) to do our running around. The beach on Pigeon Island is about 2 miles away. Rodney Bay and all of the shops are about 2 1/2 miles away and Castries, the capital, is about 4 miles away.
Our balcony overlooks the Caribbean, Rodney Bay, Castries, and Pigeon Island. Further up the mountain and behind us is the Atlantic Ocean. We might get a couple of tropical storms, but no hurricanes. We did get a lot of dust off the Sahara Dessert which made for the most spectacular sunsets we have ever seen.
We're in the busy tourist season right now. Lots more cruise ships and every two weeks the Royal Clipper...a 5 mast...42 sails cruise ship. The largest and only fully rigged sailing cruise ship in the world. It anchors off Pigeon Island just down the mountain from us.
Robert spends at least 6 days a week at the beach...one of them...and we take lots of pictures and post a lot on FB.
We don't plan to return to the states until May in time for our oldest grandson's high school graduation. After that...who knows??
It's now April 30, 2014. We only stayed in St. Lucia for 8 1/2 months. It was absolutely beautiful and relaxing, and without stress! We only turned our phones on each Wednesday. When the water got too cold to snorkel,we decided it was time to come back. So, we came home at the end of January to get a jump start on house repairs. We've been home for 3 months. Robert has a job interview next week. Retirement doesn't do much for him! He's tried retirement 3 times. He said he needs to go back to work to rest! So far we've used 28 gallons of paint in the house and we have an entire floor yet to do! So, we may be on the move again! I don't think it will be as far as Alaska or St. Lucia this time, but who knows??
Today is August 13, 2015. We've been home from St. Lucia for about a year and a half. I can't say which I miss the most, Alaska or St. Lucia, but I'm leaning towards Alaska. Robert has retired 4 times now. He gets bored and does something else. We don't plan to leave the state or the country again any time soon. We did, however, buy an RV and plan to do some traveling here in Texas. Next summer we're going to be park hosts at Garner State Park from May thru July. Then August and September at another park. Right now, however, we won't be doing much going because Robert has decided to go back to school. He's going to the Police Academy! Another thing on his bucket list!! So far we had a 51' cabin cruiser, he's done the big rig truck driver thing, panned for gold in Alaska, become a photographer, been a beach bum and snorkeled 6 & 7 days a week, worked in a Body Shop, and the list goes on! We still have the funny car and the hot rods. That will never change! We seem to take retirement in stages...or until we get bored! We've been truly blessed with all of our adventures. Hopefully, there is still many more adventures to come!
