That's great. Patty and I weren't that lucky. Patty's three sisters and folks were dead set against us and my folks were about the same.

Guess the deck was stacked against you but it worked out..

Susan's father tells everyone I have done more with Susan in a few months than her husband did in 35 years..

It did work out. Its a shame that my mother didn't live long enough to be there when we were married, dad was and he knew it worked out, I hope he told mom?

Patty's folks warmed up to me as soon as they realized that I was treating Patty alright.

Patty's sister Peggy was living with her future husband Joe.

Was a rainy day here today so I did a tune up on Patty's dads 67 year old band saw. Probably hasn't worked that good in years.

The band saw that I bought in 1982 is worn out and can't buy parts for it any more.

Some parts are still available but not many for Patty's dads.

It'll last me a long time.
