    March 31, 1968

    My queen bee took her flight, and I still have the certificate to prove it. 42 years and still hanging on. I guess she trained me well.

    Was 25 years for Kare and I on Valintines day. I didn't think she would tough it out so long.
    She gave me a new shot gun as a reminder and I gave her grief.

    Naw No shot gun wedding if that is what you ment. I had told a couple of friends I am deer hunting so much in the back yard a shot gun muzzle loader of pistol only zone I wished I had a rifled slug shot gun, Kare heard me. Looked at a bunch back in 95 or some thing like that and decided then I wouldn't use it much. But with the passing of my hunting partner and refuseing to chance breaking in a new one I am hunting the back yard a bunch more.

    And the date has arrived again. Now it's 44 years and still hanging on.

    Congrats, Iddee. That doesn't happen much anymore. You're someone people can look up to for that. And, other reasons too.
