It was an ordinary day. Trying to pick just the right photos to use for my story today which is about the anniversary of the couple that Carol and I have been traveling with for over 10 years as well as the couple who graduated with me in the same class from high school.

intendent of Grounds for the school district and in 1999 we retired together from the same school district from where we graduated. Jerry and Sue have two grown children, Tony and Tim. After retiring Sue and Jerry moved to State College, PA where Sue had spent time as a child. I have known Jerry for over 60 years and added Sue as a friend in the late 50s. Carol came along in the mid-60s when my dad and her mom set up a blind date for us and she joined the party. In 1999, a week after retiring, the four of us traveled with two other friends and Sue's sister to Hawaii for a retirement trip. Since that time the four of us have traveled to most of the islands in the Caribbean as well as making frequent trips back and forth from Lancaster to State College to visit with each other. We have shared many memories and many, many laughs since we have started to travel together and quite a few of them have been documented in this blog. So, here's to many more good memories and a truly Happy 50th Anniversary to two of our best friends! May all reading this story make a toast to the bride and groom!! It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
Thanks LDub. It's been quite a journey with a lot of twists and turns aong the way. Hoping for many more miles. ♥ JS
