Penrod 72 in the Gulf of Mexico. As a directional driller at the time paying my dues, I had some down time during a logging run. A pretty geologist was in the galley all by herself taking a break while out there for that specific logging run. I told my helper - "I am going to hit on that". I did. The rest is history :).
1984, I was working in Seattle for 5 weeks, she was the counter girl in the coffee shop where we got our break stuff. Hardly spoke to her other than to order the entire time I was there. 2 days before we left, she asked me about our work, we exchanged address's and wrote back and forth over the winter. I took a vacation week back to Seattle in April of 85, she moved out here and in with me in June of 85, married in 86. God bless her for putting up with me for more than 26 years, so far.
My last wife and I were happy for 20 years.
Then we met.
Not going to touch this one!!!!!:biggrin EB
My first wife and, I were happy for ten years, so I thought. My current wife and, I have been happy for 11 years. I'm ten years older than her. So I got a head start on her, so I think. I have 4 daughters, 2 from each wife. I will never see retirement but, I aint got it all that bad, There's tougher lifes I could have had. Sometimes we live hand to mouth but, there are those who go without. I have the sunshine and, a few good friends I have found. A roof to give me shelter when the rain comes down. I have tomorrow and, the promise that it brings.
In April 1964 hired on with the G.C.& S.F. RR, short little PBX operator caught my eye while I was doing my apprenticeship as a Train Order & Telegrapher
Operator. Radioman in the Navy and knew morse code. Joined company bowling league and we started speaking and after 6 months of dating, we agreed
we were destined to journey through life together. We are still on that journey. Best thing to ever happen to me, well........except for the 3.5 lb. crappie.
I didn't !!

She puts up with an avid outdoorsman and very "needy" individual...I could never put my wife down, because that would sure make me feel like an idiot to marry her. She's awesome.
Now, if she ever leave's me...it'll be a different story.
One night ......31 yrs ago,Wounded Armidillo,happy hour....................jus sayin still my
First wife in high school, married 23 years and I woke up. 2nd wife at a singles dance, married 17years and she passed in 2009. Met Crappie 2 (Sandy) on the internet, we will be married 2 years in June. I've been blessed, the last 2 were and are great wives and both love to fish. The first wife? She didn't like anything. Took me a long time to "wake up"
The wife and I met in late Feb 1971, on a blind date, at Tyndall AFB Fla, as we both were serving in the AF. In July that year we got married, and have been together ever since, and she also fishes, so that is a plus. July will be 42 years together.
One day sitting in my cubicle I noticed this nice looking lady move into the cubicle across the aisle from me. The rest is history. A VP of the company was interested in her but it was my luck she chose me. I am still the lucky one and it has been 28 years.
Blind date in college in 1968. Guy I played football with girlfriend had a friend she wanted me to meet. Dated for 18 months and been married 43 years this past January.
Girl scout/ explorer retreat 1971 . Married in 1976 . 37 YRS. this August 14 .:HandsClapping
My wife and I met on a blind date. She went out with me to spite the guy she was dating at the time. Married 1 year later. Will be married 39 years this April!!
Met my wife on the company softball team. Best catch of my life. Still in love 28 years later. She blessed me with three of the best daughters I could ever want. Also been blessed with the greatest website on the Internet. Met so many friends here I can not count them all. Traveling and meeting many of these friends has been an opportunity of a lifetime, for my family and I.
Met mine high school! I can't believe some of you guys chasing the baby sitter and little girl scouts! You outta be ashamed of yourselves. Lord please forgive my friends and at least save a little fishing cottage for them just outside the pearly gates.
pouring down rain, out in front of the local truck stop in Mt.Vernon Mo. I was a little bit tipsy, seen the real cute girl, she stopped and asked If I need a ride, to nasty to be standing in the middle of the road in the rain, sure I said, 42 years later same woman, I still get a little excited when the rain falls..............
I was at a boat show a several years ago and was looking at a really nice G3. An attractive woman standing nearby said that she could tell that I liked the boat and she asked me if I was going to buy it. I told her that I liked the boat, but that it was more boat than I really needed and it was more than I wanted to spend. She said "well, you only go around once in life and if you like what you see and you want it, you should go for it." We talked a little about fishing and exchanged phone numbers. I bought the boat and later called her and took her fishing (several times).
We've since been married and have been fishing together in that boat now for 6 happy years.
All these avid fishermen and no one had the presense of mind to marry a woman with worms?
She won the wet t-shirt contest at my bachelor party.
So you hadn't picked a wife before you had the bachelor party?Quote:
