I just looked at the calendar and saw that today is our anniversary. Where did the past 39 years go? I don’t know how it was in the neck of the woods you grew up in, but in mine, every time someone got married somebody somewhere nearby would say, “I give it six months, tops!” Well they probably said that about Hubby and me, but they were wrong. Here’s what we looked like then, as newlyweds, and fairly recently (on a good day) thanks to our Las Vegas friend Marie’s camera .

By the way, now that GrannyMar has taught me via email how to do it, you can click on the picture itself to make it a bit larger for detail. You’re a gem, G-Mar! The video is dedicated to Hubby as both a surprise and in lieu of a present. If you like romance and animals, or pop singing groups from the 1950’s you’ll probably like it, too. A little nostalgia never hurt anybody. Here’s to you, Pop! I’d do it all over again; hope you would, too. Happy anniversary.
