I graduated from U.T. in 1965... married and moved to San Angelo. Divorced 1974 and moved back to Austin.
In 1976 I met Brian and moved to Ft. Worth. We married there and then moved to Albuquerque in 1977. We loved Albuquerque, but Brian's promotion in 1985 took us to Orange County in California. We lived in Fullerton, CA for three years and finally got back to good ol' Texas (Plano) in 1988.
In 1998 we moved to College Station... I know, I know .. aggieland :( ... but that's where Brian was hired (at Tx A&M !!) Can you believe it ???? However, I proudly placed my U.T. bumper stickers on my car.
We NOW live in Austin, (NEVER to move again, I promise !!) near Central Market (Westgate).
We have a wonderful son and daughter-in-law (Michael and Charlotte) and two fantastic grandkids.
Brian's in real estate now - - call him if you have any real estate needs 569-2059.
We had the BEST 50th reunion !! I'm really looking forward to our next reunion. Hope to see you there!
**** Here's my update: We DID move from Austin. in 2019... but only a few miles south to Kyle, Tx. We love it here in Kyle... small town and great people here.

In September 1954, The American Statesman started a column called "Tri-High Scoop". A student from each high school wrote about the happenings at their school and then it was published in the Sunday paper. Each school had a "catchy" name, Austin was Maroon Musings, McCallum was 'Callum Clues and Travis was Travis Drawl. Enjoy reading about the days when you were at Travis.
Travis Drawl By Joy Toungate March 8, 1959
