50 years in 50 days Day 14….22 years tomorrow!

I did have brown hair once upon a time.

Tomorrow will our 22nd Wedding Anniversary.  Time waits for no one.  I always thought I got a great more intelligent the day I married my dear wife, Carrie.  I think that is true.  I am glad she said yes.

In a few minutes Carrie and I will be heading to the North Harrison High School gym to catch the Cougars as they take on the Crawford County Wolfpack.  I can see Crawford County from my back porch.  It is across the Blue River.  These two teams are always ready to play each other in basketball.  It is a good time and I think the Cougars will take care of business and run their record to 14-6 tonight…they have won 5 in a row.  Good times.

February 10, 1996 was a good day.  These two guys, Mickey Rutherford and Kelly Samons,  have probably not been adorned with greenery since that day 22 years ago.

Carrie and I got married in a one room church…Hancock Chapel.

It was 60 degrees that February Day.  Where we went to next day was even warmer.  We went to Las Vegas.  We saw Huey Lewis and the News at Caesars Palace. We rented a car and took a cruise.

It was 96 degrees in Death Valley that day and we went a long time without seeing another soul.  We stopped a few places and I have never heard nothing, literally,  like we did that day when I reluctantly turned the car off.  But…we lived to tell the story.

This story has been a great one!

Speaking the Rights…

Danny Johnson  (Go Cougars!)
