Carol and I were married.

| The beautiful bride |
I was an ensign in the Navy attending Submarine
School. Carol was a medical
technologist at Lawrence Memorial
Hospital. I was 23, the bride was 24.
We met at a sports car club rally in December, 1965. Carol was driving a green Austin Healy Bug-Eye Sprite and I has a red 1966 Triumph TR-4A. Eight months later we were married.
Forty seven years, three children, and four grandchildren later,we're as happy as the day we married.

We've been to a lot of places and done a lot of things together in 47 years.

| Hiking to a glacier in Alaska, 1999 |
 |
| Somewhere in the Rocky Mountains, 2000 |
 |
| Kayaking in the FL Keys |
 |
| Near Stowe, VT, 2004 |
 |
| Biking the old 7 mile bridge. Marathon,FL |
We don't do these things so much these days but we take pleasure knowing we did at one time.
Our outdoor adventures are more modest but just as enjoyable as they were over the years. It take's more then a heart attack, a stroke and broken hip to stop the two of us.

We're looking forward to, hopefully, another fifteen or twenty great years together.

Happy Anniversary. I love this post.
Happy Anniversary. You two are truly an inspiration! So nice to see you and your family "over the years".
Congratulations! We agree, you are both such an inspiration. Enjoy your continuing adventures.
I'm a little late to this blog ... years late, still the things you and your wife have done are very inspiring.
