Actually, it took me two hours to drive because of the horrendous, bumper-to-bumper traffic for almost the entire 49-mile route. But it was worth it to see Susie and D. before E. and I go west next month to follow our fortunes.
As you can see, marriage looks good on Susie. Take a look at those gams! The golden next to her is Beau, a very energetic sweetheart who likes to sit on your feet. And that's D. in the last photo, trying to keep Beau from jumping out of the living-room window.
