Another Milestone

No, not a birding milestone this time. That we can expect later this year as we [finally] tally our 5000th species. We have 4915 species on our shared sightings list.

No, this is somewhat more mundane: Today Linda and I have been married for an amazing 50 years!

Claire, our daughter, who has some skin in the game, figured it out sometime ago, "It's lucky that you two found each other. No one else would put up with either one of you."

Au contraire, I think that almost everyone loves Linda, with the possible exception of her two sisters.

After thinking it over, I have come to the conclusion that there is only one good explanation: good sex.

Well, maybe birding figures in there somewhere. We've been doing it together for most of those 50 years.
