We’re going to Italy!
Woo Hoo!!! Can you hear me hoot and holler over the Internet? We’re celebrating 25 years of marriage and we’re celebrating in a big, big way. Neither of us have ever visited Italy, so this is a first for both of us. We began thinking and dreaming about it 5 years ago, on our 20th anniversary, and now it’s here!
What a far cry from our honeymoon! Can anyone say “newly married and broke?” That was us. In fact, last night we were laughing with some dear friends over the fact that we spent our second night as a married couple in Barstow. Those of you who live in California are now wondering how we managed to survive 25 years with a beginning like that. For the rest of you, who may be unfamiliar with California topography, let’s just say Barstow is like spending your honeymoon in H-E-double toothpicks.
Which just goes to show you, it’s not where you are, but who you’re with, that counts.
But happily, for the next 12 days where I’ll be and who I’ll be with will both be fabulous.
So….good-bye Barstow and hello Rome!
