It really is hard to believe that we have been married 49 years and that we both still have enough grey matter inside our heads to be able to accurately count them. We have had many adventures during August and celebrated our anniversary in one form or another depending on where we were.
The craziest was a canoe trip in BC where we lined the canoe through a very cold stream between 2 lakes. We arrived a bit wet and cold and started to set up our tent when a huge rainstorm hit, swamped our tent and left us low and wet. When we finally got the tent up, we tried to use our little gas stove to dry it but burnt a hole in it and had to stop.
Along came another couple and we sat in their dry tent. He was a pharmacist and had brought along some excellent straight grain alcohol which he mixed with lemonade. We had a freeze dried gingerbread cake which we put on the stove to cook. We got a bit loose and thought the cake was the best we had ever eaten.
