On August 19, 1972 we were married in Anne Marie's parents' back yard in Woodland Hills. Then we partied until the wee hours with our families and friends. Then, with God knows what alcohol and chemicals in our blood, we climbed into my badass red fastback 69 Mustang, with a blueprinted Shelby engine and a Honda 350 SL tricked out for the dirt strapped to the back, and drove 400 miles to San Francisco. Just another day.

Anne Marie's making Roladin ( http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1827...240197,00.html ), my favorite dish, and red cabbage and potato pancakes for dinner.

 

Congratulations! Quite a mile stone. Our 4th is coming up in about a month, and I'm looking forward to at least another 31 happy years.

 

congrats.

any tips for having a marriage last that long?
also, what years were the toughest or what happened in those years that made it difficult?

 

Congrats!! here's to another happy 35!

 

Always be willing to listen and try to figure out where your other half is coming from.

Startup of my second company, when there was zip cash flow and we thought we were going to lose our house.
