August 3......

   This picture was taken about three days after Momma and Daddy were married 67 years ago.
   What makes a good marriage I ask Mom, well, she says. It's a lot of things. Each day is different and each day has it problems. But...each day you have to over look those problems and remember what brought you together, there is no such thing as a perfect marriage. Even after 67 years things have not been perfect, your Daddy has aggravated me a few times and I'm sure I've done some things that he wasn't crazy about but we never gave up on us. Your a team and you have to work together and if that means working over time, then so be it.
   Daddy says he never once thought about throwing in the towel. Mom is everything to me and we battled the world together. Even when we only had 50 cents to our name on some weeks after our bills were paid those first few years, it made us stronger. She is my sweetie......
