Now in our 30th year!


It's been donkey's years, as Nan next door would say--29 to be precise--since we said "I do" before God and a company of witnesses and pledged our troth to one another. As I count my blessings, this is always #1: I need look no further for proof of God's grace than that Gwen has been enabled to put up with me all these years. I am blessed beyond measure, and it's such fun that we're celebrating our 29th anniversary in Ireland. (Gwen just received an email from a 3rd cousin once removed who says she is a direct descendant of Brian Boru and of Edward III, so now I have even more cause to brag!)
Actually, high praise is more seemly than bragging, and certainly due to the wife of my youth. May God's blessings continue to follow us: "May the road rise . . ."
