Krista Magnifico writes, “My husband
and I just bought the veterinary hospital I
have been working at, so we are still very
busy but enjoying life. Looking forward
to the Reunion – my best to everyone on
Winnipesaukee and all over.”
Anton Rainold writes, “Busy year! I just got
married. The first and only and last time!
We bought a new house in Silverthorne,
Colorado. Life is still treating me well. No
kids yet but hopefully soon. As far as my
sailing goes, we won the Colorado J-24
districts and the Dillon Open on a Melges 24.
But truthfully, I try not to sail that much with
all the other things to do around here.”

out west ... but did make it back north. I just

be back in New England and would love to
re-connect with people up here. Drop me a

one in April. I work for HomeCrest
Cabinetry, a division of MasterBrand

home state of Illinois working as the

are going very well, and I’m very
happy in my new job. I’m the new
Regis in town, and I work with two
Kellys! It’s a two-hour morning show
that I’m doing ... and it’s a show,
not a typical newscast. There are
interviews, cooking, fitness, entertainment,
and of course, weather! So it’s been fun for
me.” Prior to his move back to Illinois, Josh
was awarded “Best Weathercaster” from the
Colorado Broadcasters Association.
