Congratulations, Mr and Mrs pineywoods!  That's just awesome.

My grandparents (Ma's side) lived to celebrate their 75th (both lived into their mid-90's).  Hope the same for you two!

Congratulations on a wonderful accomplishment.
You know another 9 years and some people will think you would rather fight than switch.
Would you per chance have any words of wisdom for those of us behind you folks (in years).
Have another piece of cake or wine (HIC) or something, you deserve it.

Congrats from Mississippi!
    I have enjoyed everything I have learned from you and this is no exception.
So I guess that means that you got married when you were 12!

Congrats Piney!!   The only things we can really count on is Gods love and time passing......... sounds like you applied the first well and then the second fell into place.   Here's to 25 more blessed years together for you!

Congratulations to you both. As a full time care giver that says a lot about you and your love for each other. You are an example for all of us.  We are 10 years behind you but my wife is still pretty much self sufficient. Lots of lucky people (who work to make things good) in our generation

LeeB

Duly humbled. It takes sacrifice on both sides to make that happen. One must realize that sometimes we do what we don't want to to keep the peace. My hat's of to you sir, and to your Mrs. too. 56 years contains many compromises from both sides of the table.

Congratulations! We are but a little over two years behind you and sure can appreciate your accomplishment.
Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

One sorta un-intended side effect, I have by necessity become quite familiar with electric wheel chairs and handicap scooters. DanG things are expensive, so I acquire used (sometime free) ones. Usually require some maintenance, thus the practice of keeping an entire fleet. We found out the hard way that anyone dependent on these contraptions needs a spare. They aren't nearly as simple as they would seem, even the simple scooters are computer controlled. Here's her current fleet, minus a 4th acquired since this pic.

Congrats Piney, just remember behind every sucesssful man threre is a surprised woman... :D
Old doesn't bother me, its the ugly that's a real bummer.

A friend of mine used a scooter and fixed it himself as well. Eventually he had most of the high draw wires soldered instead of plugged, the plugs didn't last. Congratulations on 57, were there roses this year?
