Time for a new post - don't ya think???

First, let's go back, way way back... Aug 10, 1974 Two young "kids" madly in love got married and... that was just the beginning. Here we are 36 years later and I am still madly in love with my sweetheart. We celebrated our anniversary this last weekend by going camping (in the trailer of course) to Island Park. We stayed in Buttermilk campground at a beautiful site by Island Park Reservoir. We enjoyed a lazy float down the Buffalo River. Saturday evening we had tickets to a dinner theater at Mack's Inn. We enjoyed a wonderful prim rib dinner with all the fixin's and laughed our heads off at a funny play "Rob Hood- The Tale of Rotting Ham". During intermission 3 couples celebrating anniversaries (including us) were called out of the audience to "dance" while the crowd serenaded us with "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" an old slow waltzy song. So we just did our best impersonations of "So You Think You Can Dance Contestants- Dave did the running man and I did my best twist, sprinkler head, and jerk dance moves! We were fantastic! The crowd went wild, the theater management asked us to become part of the performing group! Not really, that last part didn't happen, but it could have :) It was a fun weekend. Now here we are with 3 grown children and 6 grandchildren. Where did all those years go???? We still feel like we are 30 something, but our bodies tell us different! We are looking forward to the next 30 years!! Good grief that will make us 85 and 84 years old!!! (Pictures of our trip will follow)
