Default 50 years today

TODAY MY WIFE AND I CELEBRATED OUT 50TH YEAR, GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSAY. WHAT BETTER WAY THAN TO GET OUT '30 COUPE OUT AND MAKE A NICE SIGN FOR THE LUGGAGE RACK WHICH READS,


"JUST MARRIED"
50 Years Ago
*TODAY*

You can't imagine how many cars drove by us and Honked their Horns and waved. Some gave us the High Five, some the Peace Sign and others just yelled "Congratulations. It was so Cool. Drove about 50 miles all together and talked about all the differences on our wedding day AND TODAY. WOW..!!!!!! Brings back lots of memories....

Great Story, congrats! I wonder how many of the young kids that passed you by wondered if you bought the car new when you got married.

Four more to 50 years for us! I'm afraid we are an endangered species.
