HAPPY 42ND ANNIVERSARY TODAY FOR Alice, my wonderful wife and I.  She has been a faithful comrade throughout life.  Whether hiking in Nepal, Colorado, Arizona or Bali she has been a trooper navigating canyons, volcanoes, and mountains! Married life, in Virginia, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Ontario, Ohio and Bangladesh! I thank God for giving me such a wonderful companion.  I met her on September 18, 1966 in beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, and married her 1,000 days later!!
