41 Years
Another year has passed and another anniversary has been enjoyed. We spent a glorious week in the small lakeside town of Skaneateles. We had a nice little boutique hotel (no kids allowed). It was comfortable and on a side street, so no street noise. It was in walking distance of the shops and restaurants. My anniversary morning began with a mimosa at a lovely little diner (Clovers). My anniversary dinner was out of this world. I had pan seared scallops in a lemon beurre Blanc, au gratin potatoes and asparagus. Hubby had Surf & Turf with mashed potatoes and asparagus. e did a boat tour on the lake and did some shopping. It was a very relaxing week.
A couple of houses that dot the shores.
This is happy time, so no downers
41 years, goes by so quickly.
I made it to 26, not counting the 5 years we lived together before ...
Some years I had doubts we would make it, but we grew up together and he is my best friend.
Congrats and keep on
We will do our best.
41 years is nothing to sneeze at. So many marriages don't make it that far. Congratulations! Here's to the next 41!
Don't make me live that long.
I hear that ...
43 if I am allowed to add them all together, LMAO !!
double dipper ...
triple
Glad to see you had a happy anniversary.
Thank you.
Congrats
Thank you.
Hello from Auburn, and congrats!
Thanks. I didn't know you were a New Yorker. My husband will no longer leave the state for vacation.
I just moved out here from Washington back in April.
My move has been quite interesting. I spent most of my life right outside Philly, and worked in some rough areas like,Trenton, Camden, and Chester.
Now, in Ohio, I feel like I live in Mayberry, and I'm on ACID !
Oh, sorry Veronica, Happy Anniversary from Mayberry
Thank you.
So what do you think?
I like it so far, just not a huge fan of the humidity.
Wait until the snow hits, then you will miss the humidity.
Good for you!
Thank you.
Morning....congrats Veronica..
That truly is a wonderful achievement in this day and age...
Looks a lovely place you stayed at..
Yum pan seared scallops, I'll be right over...🐨
Thank you.
that's a long ride for scallops, what's the matter? do the scallops in oz climb out of the hot pan and then try to kill you?
Evening..no our scallops are perfectly well behaved in the pan..
Seeing the light was on at Veronica's place I thought I would just drop in and free load, as we do..😁
Especially if scallops are on the go..
Happy anniversary! I'm glad you had fun celebrating it.
Thank you. We did enjoy ourselves.
Good to see you again, Veronica. Happy anniversary!
Thank you. Nice to have some free time to actually meet with my friends here.
Fantastic! So glad you had a good time.
It was nice to escape work.
How nice! As I get older, I just love to hear (and talk) to married couples celebrating long years together! You all are 'fascinating' to people like us, and you probably do not even know why. I, we, imagine the stories that can come out of a 41 years old marriage. . .the highs and lows, the joys and pains, the pleasures. . .oh, the pleasures. . . and sorrows past, present, and future ("no downer, intended).
Thank you. We had some very hard years, but we have weathered the storms (even though right now I am angry at him - but this to shall pass).
Ah, "this too shall pass. . . . " I like that! It means you have faith in each other.
There are several beautiful married couples (I am assuming after so many years seeing them) that take health 'walks' in the neighborhood. . .and my heart jumps a bit at turning the corner on my way out on a run and seeing them (sunhat/s and all) walking early mornings and late evenings. I think about how at this 'critical' juncture in everyone's life when you really come down to needing to think about how "we" get out of here. . . that they have that issue resolved by having someone that loves them right there!
I do not have that at this point and time. . . . Such is life. I will continue to work on it, however. (Also, as the saying goes: "The Lord will provide. . . .")
When it is right it will find you.
I will place it in the hands of the Lord for 'remedy' as I continue on my way as a fellow 'traveler' looking to see what the end will be (about) one day! Every since I was a youth. . .I have wondered about this stage of my life. . .and now I am here staring it in the face! That said, I will make it alright! I will.
