You certainly were there.  We were talking about it last night.

I was there -- and it doesn't seem like it has been that long.  
My
marriage didn't last as long -- but then either did yours or 
Karen's, (LOL.)

On this date in 1996--it was, in fact, a Friday--the NFB of West
Virginia was in convention in Parkersburg.  I was affiliate
president, and Ramona Walhof was national representative.

Around 9:00 PM, following a somewhat stormy meeting of the board 
of
directors--Karen and I kicked off the annual reception by taking 
our
wedding vows in the company of our Federation family.

Seventeen years later we spent much of the day making 
preparations
for our upcoming state convention.  Earlier this evening we also
enjoyed a nice dinner at our local eatery in the next block in 
the
company of my mother-in-law whom many of you know.  I am now 
about to
go out to the porch and clip some fresh mint for making a julep 
or two.

I am grateful to the "lovely and talented" Karen McDonald for 
those
seventeen happy years of marriage.  The two of us are also
grateful  to you all in our NFB family for getting us off to a 
good
start and for your love and support along the way.

Also, greetings to our colleagues, Glen and Mary Grogg, who
celebrate their anniversary on this day as well.

Ed
