Summary
Around breakfast on the morning after the local high school graduation, a handful of regulars reflect on the likely future of those grads and what they'll learn at the 10 year reunion. Weber provides some generalities, especially on the large numbers that will have left their hometown, like the valedictorian Jennlynn Swift, and ends with a poignant thought that sets the theme for the Bradford Exiles series.
