On this date in 1996 Faye and I were married in the BF Goodrich tent @ Super Chevy held @ Virginia Motorsports Park in Dinwiddie County, Va. The next day, 10/13/1996 we took the Studebaker to the quarter finals and actually won enough money to pay for the trip.  And as a bonus we got out picture in Super Chevy Magazine also. Marrying that woman was the smartest thing I've ever done in my life!

Funny part is that she and I both came out of bad marriages and we dated for 8 years before she finally caught me!  I was pretty sure what I wanted way before that but after being burned pretty good it just took me that long to realize that what I needed was what I had. Sometimes less can be more and this is definitely one of those times because what you perceive as more can actually be less. I often wonder what my life would have been like if I'd have met her 40 years ago but looking back, my mindset at that point in my life wouldn't have allowed me to give her a second look. Funny how we learn stuff, ie, what I wanted wasn't what I needed. A man needs a woman that will "complete" him, aka, a soul mate so to speak and Faye is definitely mine!

Well, we made it through another year so that's 17 years married after 8 years of dating. Thankfully we are both still relatively healthy, very much in love and looking forward to another year together!!  It don't get any better than that!

Today makes 19 years for Faye and I!! And it's even better as each year goes by. Let's hope we both make it to 20!

20TH ANNIVERSARY TODAY!! Well, it's that time again meaning that we've made it another year! It doesn't seem possible, but, every year with Faye is always better than the previous year! We're going to spend the day together (which is what we normally do anyway) but today will be a special time for that special woman in my life! I can't imagine what life would be like without her!! I LOVE YOU FAYE!!
