For four days over the Memorial Day weekend my wife Lisa and I traveled to Salt Lake City for the World Superbike Races. We were guests of BMW Motorrad and the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America. I have a BMW S1000RR motorcycle on order and the race was a chance to see how it did in competition.While there we met with Frank Perkins (class of '65) and spent some time catching up. He is in real estate in Snowbird, Utah. His daughter just finished college. He is married and also has a younger son. He doesn't see retirement in the future and enjoys good health. We grew up together but had not talked since 1969! In 1964 and '65 my family hosted a student from Mexico name Jorge Lopez Colome. He and his son Hugo came to Salt Lake City to spend the weekend and watch the races and spend some time together. We talk and email frequently but hadn't been together for 18 years. He was called "Gino" while here and I am sure a few classmates remember him. He is widowed and works for the logistics firm that moves Ford cars from the factories to the dealers. He works in the US and Mexico. It was really great to see Frank and Gino on this trip! We hope to visit Gino in Guadalajara Mexico during the holidays.
