our country of marriage

Yesterday marked the twentieth anniversary of Ginger's and my engagement. We celebrated with a quick trip to Boston (my first since we moved), including a Sox game and a meal at the Hard Rock, which is where we ate on August 12, 1989 (except at the one in Dallas, which is no more). For our anniversary, Ginger gave me a "Story People" drawing that says,

"You're the strangest person I ever met," she said
and I said, "You, too," and we decided to know each other a long time.

And we are having a great time together.

We are more together than we know,
how else could we keep discovering
we are more together than we thought?
