We got married right out of high school and have been together ever since. Most things we have done together and we prefer it that way. We worked together at a private club and ran a very successful martial arts program for 15 years. Now we are trying our hand at writing books. Oh, did I mention the kids and grandkids? And there is a donkey, goat and cat too!

Our 50th

I am taking the liberty to repost a blog I wrote some years ago as Ruth and I will be celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary on June 14th, 2024. It is as follows.

It was late fall in 1973 when this girl walked into Homeroom. I noticed her right off the bat, though that was the first time I ever laid eyes on her. True, I had seen her picture before in the high school year book from the preceding y Read more of this blog post »
