35 Years Ago Today

Glenn and I met on a Saturday afternoon, December 23. 5 days later, on December 28, he took me out on our first date. That was 35 years ago.

Glenn had just completed Moody Aviation and had taken a 4 month bicycle trip from Dallas to Colombia, South America two years before.  Now he was living with his parents as he worked for Cothron Aviation as a mechanic.

Our first date was not my favorite.  Glenn took me to the Nutcracker at the Fair Park Music Hall.  It was fancy and elegant.  The music was spectacular.  However, it was not my thing.  Fortunately it was not Glenn's thing either.  It was the thought that counted.

 
Thank you, Glenn, for my first date - 35 years ago tonight.
