Thirty Seven Years


Yesterday's weather was
chilly but beautiful.


It's a nice break in between
the storms.



Liberty, wet from her
adventure into the water while
chasing after floating sticks.
She was allowed some off leash 
time  with the ever present can
of dry treats to shake if she 
decides not to obey the 'come' command.
Liberty ~~ She who cannot resist treats.


 We stayed toasty warm inside
 with blankets, and a propane heater.


Rick had dropped me off at 
the boat ramp just before taking the
pontoon boat back to it's berth.



The stairs and a flair up 
with arthritic knees right now
isn't a good combination.
Right now there's 97 steps
from the top down to the ramp.

  
The 'Long Night' moon rose
while I was waiting for Rick at 
the top of the stairs.

Today's our 37th anniversary.
We were married while he was home
on Christmas leave from the Navy.
I hadn't seen him for 6 months.


He was home for two weeks.
We got married and 
then he was gone for another 
two months.

Yikes, that was our Navy life,
and I'm grateful for it all,
but I am glad those military separations
are far behind us.
  
We're enjoying our  time together
this week while Rick's on vacation.
Today we are going out to see
Les Miserable.
I love musicals and am excited 
to go see it.

  3. Happy anniversary to you and your hubby. Liberty is probably pretty pleased that her owners just happen to be boat owners which puts her near water on occasion.

    Love that moon, great shot.

  4. Why don't you post a picture of you two? I haven't seen what Rick looks like since Japan. Wow, 37 years where did they go? Jerry and I celebrated our 22nd on the 15th of Dec. Hard to believe we have been married that long.

    I want to go see that movie too! I heard it was great.
