Tomorrow, THU 10/31, is the 49th anniversary of my first date with Lois. It's easy to remember, because it's Halloween. We were both students at St. Paul's College High in Concordia, MO. She asked me to be her escort on the homecoming court. I must have been good luck, because she was named high school princess.
My sister Carolyn was a co-conspirator. She held Lois' hand while she called me to ask me out. No harm, no foul, Carolyn.
I must admit that I was a little peeved to find out that I had to rent a tux, but that minor inconvenience pales in comparison to 49 years of dating bliss. So next year, guess what? We'll celebrate the 50th anniversary of our first date. We want to travel someplace special to celebrate. Any suggestions?
