Thursday Happenings.

 

Happy Anniversary Donna. & Sam..

Well I guess you all know now that today is Our 32nd anniversary, Wow where did the time go. It must be true time flies when your having fun. Always wished I could say” There I was, sitting on a bar stool minding my own business, when in she came, and swept me away”. Didn’t happen that way Donna was working at a restaurant in Dellwood where I was a Police Officer, we would eat there quite a bit, one of her co-workers had a daughter who played on a girls baseball team I was coaching and she is the one who suggested I ask Donna out. I never thought she would be interested in me, I was divorced, didn’t make a lot of money as a cop and I didn’t consider myself an attractive man. Donna was young Blond and Beautiful, I just figured she would say no. Well she didn’t and on May 19th 1979 we were married.

By the way she is still Blond & Beautiful, 2 out of 3 is still good odds. Love Ya my Dear…

How is Rigg’s taking the attention we are giving Lucky the cat, Whenever I come back in from my visits, with Lucky, Rigg’s rushes over and switches his nose into high gear and gives me a good smelling, then he insists on playtime.

Oh Boy Oh Boy Dad let’s play it’s my turn now.

Well that’s about it for today, I think I will get away from grass and cars and go to the railroad club for a couple hours this afternoon. Be safe out there. Sam & Donna…

    You know, I really did think about you guys when I went thru the Bryan street intersection on I 70. I kind of looked off over the hill to the South and said to myself, wonder what Sam's doing down there?

    But it was 5:30 and right at supper time, and I didn't know if you had the kids, or Donna was off to the restaurant and I had another hundred miles to make, so I was resigned to maybe another time. When I went over 370 the traffic was stopped on the interchange going North onto the new highway, so I quickly opted to head on East on I 70 and take my chances. And it was stopped on 270 as well, and that was North of the 370 where it ties back in, so I would have been nailed either way. Ya gotta love getting thru St Louis.........

    Happy Anniversary!!!

    Rod and Loyce
