Day: November 20, 2015

@ A tourist is someone who will drive a thousand miles to get a picture of himself standing next to his car.

When I first dated my husband to be, I had just adopted a puppy. Affectionate though the dog was, Frank did know how to respond to her, the only pet he ever had was a cricket. I waited impatiently for my furry friend to win him over. That day finally came on our wedding trip when I overheard my husband talk to a fellow honeymooner at the resort, “I never thought I could love a dog until I met my wife.”

@ The hospital where my dad worked was having their annual charity ball. My mother went looking for a dress and tried on several without satisfaction. She declared she had nothing to wear. Dad said, “Just wear the same dress as last year, who is going to remember.” Mom  relented and wore the dress. As they went into the hotel ballroom they came upon a life sized poster of them arm in arm from last year’s dance wearing the same dress.
