43 Years

On August 31st we celebrated 43 years of marriage.  Our married life started in this Corner of the Ozarks at Mountain View.  We spent 30 wonderful years on the east side of the Mississippi River, but we are thrilled to be back in the Ozarks. 

Although Linda was born in Wyoming and lived her early years in Kansas, she came to My Corner of the Ozarks when she was in the 3rd grade.  We met in the 5th grade. 

I am truly blessed with a wonderful life partner.  I was proud to celebrate our 43 years.

 For our surprise get-away, I took Linda to a different Corner of the Ozarks, Eureka Springs, Arkansas.

 We were able to see the Passion Play, a wonderful outdoor drama about the last days in Christ's earthly life.

 We enjoyed a lunch in the 4th floor bistro of the 1886 Crescent Hotel. 

 Linda is at the front door of our B&B, Arsenic & Old Lace.  While staying there we watched the 1944 movie, starring Cary Grant. 

 Our inkeepers were very gracious and the breakfasts were fabulous.

 We were able to watch birds and deer from our balcony at our B&B.

We had a few moments for meditation and reflection at the Thorncrown Chapel. 






Now I've got to get to work on next year's surprise trip on our 44th wedding anniversary.
