    A lot can happen in 52 years !

    52 years ago today, I got married to my college sweetheart after dating 2 1/2 years.
    Our family now numbers 16, it's not been perfect, but it has lasted, and a lot of credit goes to my wife.

    Ha! Considering she put up with YOU all those years, I'd have to say Kay should get ALL the credit!

    (Congrats on a fine looking family Bubba)

    In a month and 10 days, it'll be our 50th. The kids were all coming July 18 to have a party. Now that is unlikely, and they're all scared to come and give "it" to us. Mama is not just upset, she is distraught. Hitting her very hard. Kids are 800, 850, and 900 miles away in 3 directions. Probably be last chance to get all 5 grandkids together, as they are off school for this plague. Supposed to head up north after that to visit and camp for a month. None of that is probably going to happen

    Very nice family JB. Having met many of them, they are a credit to Grandpa and his influence and raising.

    Congrats jb! We have our 50th coming up in May and the missus is in a fine fettle cause she can't get together with family and friends. Maybe this will be all over by then. Who knows?

    I may be the best suited man in the state for quarantine life. Every Tuesday at 6 am, I run to Walmart during senior hour and pick up groceries and get gas for the lawn mower. The rest of the time I just work around the house and cook a little bit. Church is live streaming, Curbside pickup for anything else I need. Mail lady puts my mail in the box and I've
    got a little table by the mailbox for the UPS/Fedex. If I want to go fishing, I've got access to a private pond. The kids can face time me if they want, or not. I don't go any where and I don't want anybody coming to see me.

    Life is good
