I've thought about it. But I'm not sure that many/any changed their religious and political views like I did. It's a bit awkward to now ...well, the relationships I do have with people with widely different views can be stormy at times. I guess this sounds odd, but if my friends stayed super conservative...I'm not sure I want to know? Sometimes reconnecting can lead to disappointment.

But I'm glad you have had good luck reconnecting with old friends. It does sound fun :)
