Thumbs up 40 Years for GEE35FX and GEE35FXETTE

That's right, Karen and I have been married for 40 years on June 6th (tomorrow). Yes I know, many of you guys on this board weren't even born yet

Originally we were going to do a 6 week cross Canada drive and also visit many of the folks from this forum. But, due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to cancel.

So instead we are taking off tomorrow and heading in an Easterly direction, we can't really venture more than 1,000 miles from home since we do have to return for some important appointments in a couple of weeks.
We will stay tomorrow night where we spent our 1st night on our Honeymoon 40 years ago, then continue on our short journey East.

Packing the FX today, then we are off tomorrow morning (of course I'll have the laptop with me)

Congratulations to both of you, what a great example you have set! We Westerners are sorry not to see you this year but I understand and look forward to next year.

Staying where you stayed the first night on you honeymoon is an awesome idea. Have a wonderful trip, a great time, and take lots of pics.

Thanks so much Shane. I don't think we can make it to your place, but we will probably be a few hours away. I send you a PM later.

Haha, of course, that's what I meant. We are coming up on 20 years next month -- if Mrs Swivel puts up with me that much longer, LOL!

Tooo Cooool. It's obvious to all who see you together you're still the best of friends as well. BTW my daughter's birthday is on the same day. Now I'll always remember to share a thought for you and Karen on our "Special Day".
Congrats and Best Wishes.
Safe trip Wayne.
