Jim Jenkins

Since '74...Left LV as soon as I could, played (enjoyed life one day at a time) for about 10 years (mostly in Manhattan, KS), got a degree, married a professor(after dating for 5 yrs), moved to Idaho, had a kid, decided to get serious about life, had another child, great job for last 21 years, looking forward to retirement on recently purchased 40 acres w/ limestone house & barns near Manhattan.

UPDATE: Sue and I have returned to Kansas. Living on 500 acres near Olsburg, 30 miles north of Manhattan. Sue works as an educational consultant and supports my hobby farming. We are living in a limestone house that we restored. Aaron is living in Boise, Idaho with a perfect wife and our first grandchild, Marshall 3yrold. Ruby lives near us and flits around the country training and showing show jumpers.

I count my blessings daily; a loving wife and the two greatest kids ever, and good health.

I still wonder why so many people were crying at Graduation...I could not wait to get out of there!

Band trip to Worlds of Fun...Finish Fling 3 times in a row...sick rest of day.

ROTC uniform Wednesdays...always forgetting hat...pants too tight...uhgh!

Councling office surprised that I planned to go to college...some day.

Skipping class - lots! - how did we get away with that?
