Please join me in extending best wishes of health and happiness to the beautiful CarolC who two years ago to this hour became my wife.

Thank you to the Mudcatters who shared this wonderful experience with us both online and in person and a week later at the gathering.

Thanks in particular to cyberhosts Max and Joe Offer for making us welcome and keeping the Mudcat experience so enjoyable. And a special thanks in memory of Rick Fielding who welcomed me to the Mudcat family with a singular act of modesty and self revelation which shall go unnamed but impresses me to this day.

God Bless you all. May each of you find and enjoy as much happiness as I have found with Carol.
