A lupine bouquet for my bride. Fifty years ago today, Teresa Ann Schwalen and I were married. We were both so young, but knew we wanted to grow old together, and even after all these years her ring still sparkles just like the mischief in her big brown eyes. Only time will tell how the next chapters of our lives will be written. Each day has been a gift, and each day ahead will be an adventure, especially when you are walking beside your very best friend.
