    Nice looking couple there!  Given the nature of this thread, shouldn't you also provide a wedding day pic?

    Ron.   Congratulations on 55 years.  That is simply amaizing.  No matter what anyone else thinks.  Stay strong and stay focused.  What counts is that you put your heart into it,  for someone you love.  No one will ever call that a failure.  I'm sure you have stories you two could share that would strengthen us.  If you took photos post them with pride.  We are here to support grow and learn.  We all have fubared much worse.  Again congratulations and thanks for giving me something to strive for.  Yaw still smiling...  be proud.  We are proud of you!  Thanks for sharing

    I want to say it was at our wedding but I could be wrong but I ended up talking to a husband and wife who I want to say was coming up on there 70th wedding anniversary. The couple was from my wife's side of the family. I asked them what the secret was to their long marriage. He said, Going out to eat." I said, "Going out to eat?" He said, "Yes. She goes out to eat Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and I go out to eat Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays!" 

    I won't ever forget that. I believe humor goes a long way in a relationship.....

    My bad brother. Definitely a typo. Glad you caught it. I think it’s understood I meant trillions  =)
