It is warm and sunny in the Berkshires - it is my 15th anniversary - and what a long, wonderful and sometimes strange trip it has been. We've been to Russia and Poland and the former GDR, we've taken long trips to England and Scotland as well as Montreal, Tucson, San Francisco, Boston, NYC and the great town of Cleveland, too. We've driven across the United States, served in three congregations and seen two daughters grow up, celebrate their respective weddings and mature into creative and wise young women.
We've played TONS of music and been blessed to be a part of two bands together. We've helped one another face many of our worst demons - we've wounded one another's hearts - and found a way back into a deeper and more trusting love.
So, tomorrow we're headed out for three days of R and R in our new anniversary town: Providence, RI. Great eating places, some sweet music and art museums, too. What's more it is not far from the ocean and only 90 minutes away. So I keep thinking of this song - it is NOT part of Di's world - just mine but still spot on... Thanks be to God for 15 years.
