LOLOLOL! We were married in northern Illinois on Feb.7. We got snowed in on our honeymoon. If the best man’s wife hadn’t packed our uneaten chicken luncheons in my suitcase, we might have starved to death the first day of our marriage. We couldn’t get out of our Lake Geneva cottage and get the car started until 5 pm the following day! But, we’re still together (despite ups and downs) 54 years later.

Wow, you’ve been married longer than my parents! You have to expect cold and snow in Northern Illinois, but it had been 80 degrees in SA just a couple of days earlier. My father-in-law and my maid-of-honor were iced in on the runway in Dallas. “She’s a substantial blonde, and she’ll be sewing a blue satin dress on the plane,” and sure enough, she was. They were friends by the time they landed!

I spent two nights in the airport waiting on people whose schedules went crazy with the weather. My cousin and his family got stuck in Denver and couldn’t make it. My bridesmaid’s family had an ice-trek by car from Dallas.
