Now for the rest of the story. LOL. The first one isn't funny. A couple of hours after the wedding Marilyn's brother almost lost an arm in a feed mixer. The doctors could sew him back together but it was very gruesome. Marilyn cried herself to sleep that night because of it. When we left for Colorado Springs the next morning we visited him in the hospital before we took off. He was hurting like you wouldn't believe. NOT a good way to start a honeymoon.
During the ten day honeymoon we stayed with Marilyn's aunt and uncle in Colo Springs and we stayed one night with my grandparents on the way home. Her aunt and uncle insisted we stay with them and they made it clear we had no other choice! Maybe they wanted to keep an an eye on ME! LOL The only motel expense was one night at North Platte Ne. Gas had gone up to .40/gal and we thought it was the end of the world. The whole honeymoon was financed by wedding gift money and we had some left over. We took the honeymoon in a new 73 Plymouth Satellite with no options except for power steering and an AM radio. It was our chariot for 300,000 miles. Both of our kids drove that thing to school.
Third story: Marilyn can still fit the wedding dress. It might even be a little loose. I can't say the same for me. That 36" waist I had is long gone and there's 20 pounds more of me now. I've tried to convince Marilyn it's all muscle but she tells me if it was muscle I'd be showing it off, not trying to hide it! LOL.
Out of all this came a son and daughter and six grandkids. Our oldest granddaughter will be graduating from high school next spring. We have lived in the same house and we plan to stay here for awhile longer unless the good lord has other plans. Where has the time gone? Jim

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
