A Winter's Tale

Cold Ladies

by Alphonse Mucha

Yet another frigid morning.  Fortunately the snow stayed far to the south in Oregon.  Did you heard about the folks trapped on the Los Angeles bound train for almost 2 days?  After all that, they brought them back to Seattle again which must have been quite a let down, not to mention spoiled vacation plans. 

February (rightly so) isn't a popular month for weddings, but nevertheless, today happens to be our anniversary. 

Here we are 26 years ago with brown hair, brown beards and a teenage Amanda.  How we miss the dear ones in that picture who are no longer with us.

Usually I plan a special meal but I'm not cooking tonight.  John is taking us out to dinner at Jak's Grill, our local steakhouse. I think what he's really hankering for is a giant baked potato, all his own.  At home, he has to split one with me. A long happy marriage is about sharing and compromise.
Ha Ha.
