The anniversary.

Congratulations! My bride and I are coming up on our 40th this December. A good and understanding wife/partner makes all the difference. Mine is a good shot also. Thanks for posting another of your great stories.

Congrats, you are a lucky man. I think this is my favorite of all your stories, because it is truly personal.
 
Happy anniversary to you and your lady, Carl.
May you both have many more anniversaries.
 
Congrats Carl! That's quite an accomplishment this day and age. Wonderful story as always. Thanks for sharing it with us.
 
Congratulations on 42 years and like many of us....marrying up. Wishes for many more happy anniversary's. Thanks for the story.
 
Congrats Carl,it sure warms my heart to see a couple together for so long.
Here's to many more years of bliss.
 
Thank's for all the congratulations. It's been a long haul, and a heck of a party. Some bumps along the way, especially when the better half has genes from the other side of the Rio Grande. But I do have to admit that I've deserved the temper most of the time. As I told texasboy at lunch the other day, I even managed to get the Thanksgiving turkey thrown at me once. Karen is a gem I wouldn't trade for all the tea in China, and I love tea. I just thank the good Lord above that I had the common sense to grab the perfect girl when he put her right there in front of me. God only knows how she's put up wth me for all this time.

Mink, I didn't marry up as much as Karen married down. A fact that my mother-in-law to be, couldn't shake for many years. Karen came from a home much higher on the social register than some Irish immigrant watermen on Maryland's Eastern shore. But my father-in-law was the absolute best FIL a guy could have. One heck of a shot with a .22 to boot. His roots were down by Brantley county, Georga farm country.

Thank's again to all you guys!!!

Carl.
 
Happy anniversary, Carl & Karen!

For more great years together... Cheers :applouse:
 
Happy Anniversary and the best of everything. My first wife and I celebrated 46 in July. (She has roots south of the Rio Grande as well.)
