We chose this day to take our vows.
We met in 81 to climb Rainer. Hubby, then a friend, had to move to Arizona, because of his job. I went on to work and climb overseas. Took a few kayak trips to the Queen Charlotte islands in British Colombia and to the Baja before that. My passion was climbing to Australia, New Zealand to Mt. Cook, Alaska, where ever else I was working on going.
Years went by and in 91, on my lunch break, we met again in the paint department. He was back in town, buying a house. I was getting paint, to paint a room in my home. That was in April. I was also getting ready to fly home, to Indiana to see my mom and family. We didn't meet up again till October! I had a busy summer that year.
We took some night skiing in, from that first snow fall and into spring. We got home at 1 am got up and went to our jobs in the morning. How did we do it? Work hit the slopes, then do it all again!
We didn't have cellphones then. We found people to take our picture. These are all pictures of pictures. Most of our climbing pictures were done in slides. Someday, we should organize them all... Someday lol... I have lots of some day's. The someday will be my family going through stuff when we are gone.
This was taken from Mt. Adams. I had taken the strap off my ice axe handle. It was getting old, was coming off, so I couldn't trust it anymore. I replaced it with another rope after the picture. In the back ground is Rainer. We did that one too. Me, I did it a few times never from camp Muir. Too busy of a rout with newbies. I did ski from there with a full pack on, once.
This was a climb in the North Cascades someplace.
Well it's been a wild life of adventure. However we persevered! Been together 40 years! 20 of those years married. Always busy even now, here in Florida. Life is good so far for us and it will only be getting better! We worked hard and played hard, never looking to anyone else, accept God! We are both Christian and Conservative, it's how our relationship went. Evil is out there, we rebuke it on a daily basis.
Everyone in our family were in one branch of the military, or another. You know, there will be some enemy around that corner waiting to destroy, the American dream. We will not allow them to! They're all gnashing, like the demonic democrats I expected to, sadly there are some republicans that lost their way too. Every branch in the USA has been infiltrated. What a mess!
We really are on that path of getting our country back! In God's name we pray! Retribution of evil must happen. We need law and order back! The ones that were pointing fingers, at the one chosen for the job, are the real criminals. How biblical is that! Pay attention out there! Also PRAY!
