  This old house was only a few blocks from the state Capitol in Madison, Wisconsin. All the neighborhood cats lived in the basement during the winter. The house has long since been torn down, but in 1972 there were AR2ax speakers in the front room, and a lot of good music was heard there.

A Great Day

A Great Day

35 years ago today my dream of finding a life partner came true and I became the luckiest man on earth. Happy anniversary, dear Ethne! Now I have to try to live to be 88, so I can be married for 50 years like my dad was. (Can she put up with me for that long??)
      When we lived in England, on our anniversary I would buy Ethne a rose for each year we'd been married; when we moved back to the USA that stopped, because roses were absurdly expensive and neither of us had a decent job. This year my present is a wonderful bunch of roses!

Here's the old poop himself

Here's the old poop himself

Caught in the act of scarfing his dinner in front of the TV. Any resemblance to Prince Charles has to do with the wrinkles.
