Las Cruces, NM

Anniversary

Edition

Thirty-four years ago this date, an intimate group of 10 or so gathered in the living room of Judge Frederick ("Fritz") Van Sicklen in Alameda, CA. Vows were exchanged, the Judge pronounced us duly married and Janice and I began our marital journey. I am grateful for her patience, her love, and her companionship. I shudder to think how my life might have turned out without that 'mid-course correction'.

"The groom, resplendent in sideburns and temporarily adorned with hair on the top of his head, wore a polyester sports coat. He sported Coke-bottle glasses..."

"The bride was simply stunning, wearing a short skirt that displayed exceptional legs...."

Going to dinner tonight!

More tomorrow.
