The clock in the living room had stopped so I was late getting to the church. Was it an omen?
We married in a simple ceremony with only a few friends and family in attendance. My Aunt Ruth stood with me, his friend Myrle with him. It was over in a matter of minutes. I barely remember the small reception at his parent's house, don't even remember who was there. I do remember one of his friends/cousins riding beside us on his motorcycle, and nearly getting wiped out by an oncoming car, on our way there.
The cost of the wedding? $60.10
Our honeymoon was one night spent in a motel in town, he had to be back in the fields the next day.
We've been married for 37 years today, we went out for dinner, without kids, last night, both of us tired after a long day, today we'll spend with grandchildren.
I've learned I'll take comfort anytime over fairy tales.
Happy Anniversary to the Man!
