Yesterday we celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary on the road in Morrisville. It's been a great week of celebrating and visiting with family, especially with Char and the boys back in the United States. Wonderful having them up here in Vermont during our visit.
Early in the morning Tom III had me helping him line up some cabinets in their new "AirBnB" apartment in the basement. When Char arrived to take Vi and I to breakfast, I was a little disheveled and in need of a shower before heading out to Deb's Place - a local restaurant. Got there too late for breakfast, but brunch worked well.
Earlier, I found a file on my laptop which had our wedding pictures from Vietnam. It was fun sharing those. The file was one in which I had digitized some 35 mm slides and some of them I had run through backwards, so Vi and I were signing our Vietnamese wedding certificate left-handed.. We had photos of both the civil wedding ceremony in Saigon as well as the wedding out at Tan Son Nhut AB.
After the brunch mentioned above, we took Char, George III and JT to a local recreation area to play some miniature golf. JT won the 18-hole round - so much for my putting skills. In the afternoon, Tom III, Carolyn, Vi and I went to the Copley Country Club (doesn't that sound impressive?) to play nine holes before dinner. It was cold, but then turned nice after a while when the sun came out. Copley is kind of a neighborhood nine-hole course - little short (2706 yards), but that suits my game :-). Tom took a picture of us out on the course:
Dinner and pinochle with the family followed. Didn't get to see the full moon yesterday, but early this morning it's high in the sky. Today we're heading over to New Hampshire to see Mary Ann and Stuart and maybe play some golf over there.
Right now our plan is to leave either Sunday or Monday and head over to North Dakota through Canada, but that's several days in the future.
happy anniversary, tom and vi - and many, many more
