. . . of wedded bliss today.

Our mother's were best friends at church, and always conniving to get us together. We finally agreed to a date, just to get moms off our backs.

Couldn't stand each other, but the moms were happy we went out, and that was that.

Three years later, Feb 1985, Billy Graham came to town to do a crusade at Lockhart Stadium in Ft. Lauderdale. I was a counselor and she was just attending. Well before the event began, and both of having arrived early, we saw each other across the field. She was HOT! And I of course was killing handsome. We ran across the field toward each other in slow motion. Alright, we just walked to each other, both having tempered and changed, began dating, and married May 31, 1986. But she's still HOT, and I, of course, am still killing handsome. And still crazy after all these years.

God is good.

Nina and I will have 22 years June 27th ...

... we've had our 'ups and downs' ... but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. It's been a good life. We balance each other out ... and are a pretty good match.

Congratulations. That's an accomplishment to be proud of. My lovely bride and I celebrated our 28th on Saturday.

Considering the times, the uncertainties, and the somewhat cloudy future, it's good to know you've got a great life partner.

Life is good.
