25 Years

  It was a blustery, rainy day in Martin’s Ferry, Ohio.  The minister was a jerk and our hotel reservation fell through.  Today in Normal, Illinois it was 75 degrees, clear sky, beautiful fall colors, and we had breakfast at McDonald’s this morning.  Then I went to work and she went to class.  Funny, what changes and what stays the same.  For example, I had a black ‘67 VW when we got married.  Today I have a blue one.

    25 years?  Longer than I’ve achieved, many congrats!  But I’d have expected Garden of Paradise instead of Mickey D’s.  Wink wink, nudge, nudge.

    25 years—That is wonderful.  May you two have at least 25 more!

    Thanks, everyone – we appreciate the good wishes!  Amazingly, I got our anniversary post up long before MrsDoF did (which is to say, she still hasn’t.  The reason is that she plans a blog-entry extravaganza with pictures, details, etc.) 

    Doris – Yep, we’re both young-looking.  Not as good as being young but a reasonable substitute. ;-)   And we’re not yet as old as the ironic blogname suggests either.  We’re timeless!

    Thanks again, everyone :-)

    Hey! You must have known I wanted to make some remark about your ironic blog name …. just like me, hiding! :-)

    There are other pictures over at my place
    MrsDoF.  I may be 5 days late, but worth the wait.
