27 June 2010 18th and looking happily forward
Eighteen years ago today Gloria and I were married in Columbia MD. It was a small, simple wedding, held on the deck at her brother’s home. The temperature was around 95 °F and the wine used to consecrate the marriage was at ambient temperature.
We were surrounded by family and friends.
Due to logistics our wedding dinner took place in a “Roy Rogers.” While inelegant in nature, it was adequate and something we’ve joke about ever since. The next morning we left for Cape Cod. We had a wonderful honeymoon that ended in Boston before driving back to Gaithersburg MD.
The recall brings a grin to my face. How quickly the time has flown. I couldn’t imagine a better wife, friend, and lover. I’m looking forward to the next 18 years.
Dinner tonight is planned to be bone-in rib steaks done with a cocoa, coffee, chili rub; grilled asparagus, and sweet potato fries. Champaign will suffice for dessert.
