Don and Jim have known each other and worked together for over 35 years, and when we got married 20 years ago, I met Mary and Jim for the first time. Now, many years later, the four of us have shared wonderful adventures, and have our own stories to tell. Our favorite story is the one about the four of us driving to the Gorge Amphitheatre in 1998 to hear Bob Dylan and his band play. It was a cold and blustery May day, and we were freezing as we sat on the grass wrapped in blankets and drinking as many hot beverages as we could. Dylan's performance was outstanding, and he still had some of his voice left.
Since that first trip, we've spent many evenings sharing dinners at various 'favorite' places, hearing each other's jokes, talking about our children (we have four sons between the four of us), and hearing Jim's stories about the UW Huskies. We talk of our lives, our passions, life in general, retirement, and the latest movies. We listen to contagious laughter. We do everything that good friends do, and we are so glad we have people like this in our life. Here's to wonderful friends who make Life's journey so much better by sharing it with us along the way.
