Last
night
[7-2-2021],
the
Upper
Arlington
High
School
Class
of
1971
held
the
first
of
the
three
events
of
its
50-Year
Class
Reunion
on
the
outdoor
patio
at
Coaches
Bar
and
Grill.
Our
large
group
of
67-year-olds
and
68-year-olds
had
nearly-exclusive
access
to
the
outdoor
patio
on
a
thankfully-not-too-hot
July
evening
[though
several
slightly-older
people,
who
had
not
been
a
part
of
our
high
school
class,
had
been
clustered
in
one
of
the
corners
of
that
patio].
The
serving
staff
at
Coaches
had
been
friendly
and
efficient
in
spite
of
having
to
work
in
an
extremely-crowded
and
constantly-changing
environment.
I
ordered
"Stadium
Nachos";
that
order
was
brought
to
my
table
within
a
few
minutes.
I
should
probably
mention
here
that
I
had
not
received
a
fork
with
my
"Stadium
Nachos."
Thankfully,
someone
else
at
my
table
had
been
willing
to
navigate
that
extremely-crowded
environment,
find
a
fork
[wrapped
in
a
paper
napkin],
and
bring
that
fork
to
our
table
within
one
minute.
Before
I
close,
I
want
to
talk
about
the
wonderful
way
in
which
the
steps
to
the
slightly-raised
area,
three
steps
above
the
main
floor
level
at
Coaches,
are
illuminated.
Since
I
am
a
person
with
limited
vision,
I
had
greatly
appreciated
the
way
in
which
those
steps
had
been
illuminated
[by
using
a
large
square
lighting
fixture
with
louvers
on
the
facing
edge
of
the
step
that
would
be
clearly
visible
to
most
except
to
those
who
are
completely
blind].
Those
steps
had
been
far
more
visible
than
one
would
have
expected
given
their
location
and
the
low
level
of
ambient
light
in
that
section
of
the
room.
