Anniversary Thirty Six

Today is Anniversary 36. Wife and I were married on 1 June 1973 at about 1900, a day after I turned 20-years old. I still tease her about “robbing the cradle.”
I guess that after 3-1/2 decades, it’s going to stick. (Actually, it’s closer to four decades, given that I was serious about her when I was fifteen.)
Happy Anniversary, Wife… and here’s to a few more. I think I have another twenty-years or so left in me.
It’s been a helluva ride over nearly four decades. I suspect the ride isn’t over yet! There are still obstacles to overcome and more places to see.
I laugh a lot about how we’ll be as old people. I suspect we’ll be one of those couple who can’t communicate. For example…
She, “I think we have ants in the kitchen…”
Me, “No, my pants aren’t in the kitchen… I put them in the laundry…”
The image is one I collected the other night on the way home from Reno. We stopped at Little Caesar’s in Carson to pick up a pizza for Young Son. While Wife went into the store, I grabbed this image. The iPhone’s camera is an amazing little device. I use it to grab shots all the time, because I nearly always have it with me.
Happy Anniversary, Husband! It has been a helluva ride, but I’ve loved sharing it with you. I hope I have a few more years left in me, too.

Here’s to another 36!
