My Dear, Old Friend

Meet our very dear old friend, Patty, who introduced Jim to me back in 1964. Since we are going to celebrate our 53rd anniversary on Sunday, it was especially fitting that we got to see her for the first time in at least twenty years!

We drove up to Arlington yesterday for my daughter's work, and today we drove back down to near Fredericksburg, VA, to see Patty, who recently moved there from Florida. She lives in a nice assisted living, and three of her /four children all live fairly nearby. 

I have known Patty since high school and college, and she is very special to me. I'd like to think she is special to Jim because she led him to meet me - but that might be stretching it a bit. LOL

At any rate, we were both very happy to see her, and her older daughter today, and find that she is doing well in her new home.  Stay well, Patty, we promise to return before too long.
