Tomorrow Dad and I will be married 28 years...It is also Mary and Tillman ,Wes parents anniversary date... Where have the years gone?
We started a tradition early in our marriage of each of us taking a turn, every other year and planning something to celebrate.
Last year was my turn so I planned a weekend over in Catalina. The year before it was Dad's turn and he took up to a B & B in Cambria. The year before that, I took Dad to the Madonna Inn and we stayed in the Cave Room. And we went on a Alaska cruise for out 25th. I'm hoping for another cruise or to go to Hawaii for our 30th...well it sounds like a good idea.
We have gone to some cool places... I remember one year I saved up and made reservations at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego and then Wes got laid off work and we had enough money for a tank of gas and to go out to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory in downtown San Diego but didn't have enough money to pay to go back and forth over the bridge ($1.65 one way) so we had to go the long way round the strand to get back to the hotel and coffee in the basement cafe was really expensive. One year Dad took me to Avlon beach , we had a room over looking the beach front. There have been many anniversaries at Scout camp too. One year I took Dad to a Log home B & B up in Big Bear and we walked the town for entertainment. Some years we were lucky to be able to just give each other a card or go out to dinner.
This year we are going out to dinner and will go to the L.A. Fair next weekend with friends.
Here's to another 28 year Wes,,, I love you!

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!!!
Happy Anniversary to a wonderful and cute couple :) I hope that you have a great time at the fair and had a yummy dinner. I also hope that we'll be able to some day go back to the Madonna Inn for a anniversary. That'd be wishful thinking. Such great and romantic ideas. Congratulations on another happy and memorable year together.
