38. The day we got married in Madison

Fri Jan 23, 2026, 01:05 PM

Jan 23

it was -25 with a -60 wind chill.

At the courthouse, 36 years ago this past December.

But, 18 of our friends showed up and we all went to breakfast afterward. Only relative of either of us was DH's brother.

Sorry....comment just triggered the memory and I chose to share. Again, sorry.
