    54 years

    It was 54 years today that we made our vows. We met in church on the air base n England and I knew she was the one. got engaged in France, and married on the air base in New Mexico. Time sure does fly. We weathered the bad days and gave the Lord thanks for the good. All in all, I would do it again.
    I have come to believe honey bees are more important to this world than I am.

    Good for you guys, that takes a lot of devotion, ups and downs. We are at 50, everyone said we wouldn't make a year.

    Good for the two of you.

    I got off to a late start, was 44 when I found mine, 21.5 years later it keeps getting better.

    Takes teamwork, and no quitting. If you are going to do it you have to truly commit to it 150%.

    I think that very few do these days.

    Right there is a man, errr, a couple after my heart. SWMBO and I will mark 48 years together this July. Three daughters and three grandchildren later, we have agreed it was all worth it and would do it again. Congratulations to the happy couple.
