So much to celebrate! It's golden!


On a beautiful September Friday, exactly 28 years ago today, Stan and Kathleen, along with three excited young girls, drove over to Chanhassen's Lake Ann Park and got married.
When your birthday falls on the same day as your age, it is your "golden" birthday. Since this is a Friday, and we got married on a Friday, Stan thought this might qualify as a "golden" wedding anniversary.
For this observation, he received a big laugh from his bride.
She does agree this is a happy day; we'll go to Chanhassen all over again just to see if the leaf bouquet still welcomes us there.

Last night, just before midnight, the Minnesota Twins slipped into first place, sweeping the hated Chicago White Sox, and putting an extra storybook glow on everything.
It is a golden day to be with the one you love.
