Default 42 years, but who's counting!

Yep. It's been 42 years since I married my present wife and nowadays, that seems to be a rarity. Tomorrow is our anniversary and I'm happy to say I'm still with the one I picked (or did she pick me?) originally. We're going out to dinner in Traverse City (a resort town near here) and plan to enjoy ourselves. Just thought I'd share the news.

Yep! He's gotta like orchids! Dottie does. Can't grow them, but that's why she keeps me around

WOW! Thats wonderful Ross,Congratulations to you and your wife
Best wishes for many many more in the future.
I agree, you both share the secret that others don't have. I'm pretty sure its not the orchids keeping you together
