Who Would Have Thought?

50 years ago today I married my bride. At 20 years old, no one gave us that sort of odds. Well, we beat them all
BIL gone
Mom. Gone
Dad. Gone
Brother divorced estranged from everyone.
Might not have been the best, never had any money, DWs health is not the best. BUT we still have a decent RV, good enough health to camp host easily, and each other.
  • Congratulations! Our story is truly unique, but I'll not share now. Everyone gave us 6 weeks and it would be over. It's now been 31 years. They are still shaking their heads!

    I think it's wonderful.... 50 years! Congrats again! Give her an extra kiss and an extra hug today.
  • Congrats! We're not there yet. But, I've heard the first 50 are the easiest.
    It's the second 50 that's the tough part. Get busy. :)
  • Congratulations on your milestone. Your story is similar to mine. I was 19 she was 17 and her entire family objected. All 3 of her brothers are on their second or third wife. We just passed 36 years but hope to achieve your current milestone if the universe is kind to us.

    Take good care of her.
