Today Would Have Been My 30th Wedding Anniversary...

...if my first wife and I had not divorced in 1979. But I'm glad we did - otherwise, I would have never met the lovely Mrs. CO Liberal. We've been making each other happy since 1992, and have been married for 11 years now. :loveya:

8. February 6th

We eloped to Elkton, Maryland. We got married in The Little Historic Wedding Chapel in downtown Elkton. There were pictures in the vestibule of the celebrities who got married there over the years - Babe Ruth is one that comes to mind.

10. In Fact, I Did

Simply as an acknowledgement - nothing to celebrate, but something to note.

I was 21 when I got married the first time. When I did, Mrs. CO Liberal was only 14...

9. SHE Wasn't Too Safe Around Her, Either

After our divorce, she became an alcoholic. Eventually she joined AA and started her recovery, but the damage to her system had been done.

She died at age 46 in June 1998, of heart and kidney failure.
