Congratulations Muddy. I guess if this is 2022, my wife and I made 42 years in June this year. It doesn't seem like it was really that long.

Congrats Muddy! that's pretty awesome.
Many if us are blessed like you with a woman that let's us do what we do, and in some cases even share the shooting, hunting, and the love for the outdoors.
God bless you both

While I don't have your level of experience I think I can sorta relate with feeling like it hasn't been that long. We had four kids in 3 years (one pregnancy was twins) It's all been a blur!
CS Lewis was quoted to have mused
"Isn't it funny how day to day nothing changes, but looking back everything is different?"
Or something along those lines. Seems to me an accurate depiction of life.
Wow! This just shows that hunting men can make good husbands. Or maybe we just got lucky and found very tolerant wives. I'm only at 38 years married to the same wonderful woman.
Congrats!
Congrats!

Congratulations on your 42nd, @Muddyboots
My story;
It was July of 74 when I came to Salinas, CA on leave. Upon arrival, I immediately went to see my FIL and ask for permission to marry his daughter. He asked what is my plan for the wedding. In our old country tradition, the groom pays for all expenses. Told him all I had was 100 bucks to my name.
He suggested that he drives us to Reno. Early morning of the 14th off to Reno we went. I spent 23 bucks for the license.
My dear wife had fish sandwich at Dennys on our way home. That was our wedding reception.
28 years ago, I made it up with her. We had a church wedding, and reception at the grand ballroom of the Omni Hotel for 200 guests for sit down dinner. Had a band and 2 open bars tiĺl 2 in the morning.

Muddy, Amen adn congratulations! Our 42 is coming up in Dec and she beat breast cancer 4 years ago. Life without her is inconcievable. Especially since she so valiantly puts up with all my BS. We have been truly blessed.
