BS: Thank you Max and Sandy Paton

Ten years ago today, thanks to the miracle of Mudcat, I was married to the love of my life, in Sharon Connecticut, by Sandy Paton. It was rather unconventional - we drove around that morning looking for the perfect place to have the ceremony and found it, near the Housatonic river, with the beautiful fall colour in the background. There were just the four of us, Kendall and me and Sandy and Caroline. No need for anything more. Our honeymoon was spent at the Getaway in Camp Ramblewood, staying in the old house and with a wedding reception arranged by SINSULL and Tinker. That was fun but, because they didn't know me then, was a bit more circumspect in nature than might otherwise have been the case - no ladies in mourning, wearing black feather boas, in the front row, for a start!

As is always the case, life has not always been an easy ride and both of us have failed in the marriage stakes before, but here we are, ten years on and, as Kendall would say, on the giddy side of morose.

When we got back from the Getaway, my brother asked how the honeymoon compared to my first back in 1955, and I told him, "This time, it was me that went into the bathroom and cried."

Better than my mother's honeymoon, Kendall. She said she came out of the bathroom to find my father reading the yellow pages.

I'll always remember meeting the two of you for the first time that year -- at the Getaway. You were glowing then, and still are! And I can't help but think about how many lives you have touched and positively impacted throughout these last 10 years. Thank you and best wishes for many more happy years! xx KT

Did ya take the Model A out to a gourmet dinner?

Have you planned how to celebrate your 50th?

I had found my current roommate pre-mudcat (31 years ago), but I've met a few of my favorite people as a result of stumbling into the site.

I remember meeting Kendall and Jacqui at Getaway, wrapped in their own special glow. Or at least Kendall was, as Jacqui gently led him to their room so he could sleep it off.

Kendall's special glow burns brighter than the average, and She must be the reason for it. I can't believe we've seen ten years of Getaways come and go.

Well done to my two favorite Maineacs.
