| Two people still in love after 18 years!!!! (Photo taken on 4/22/19) |
WELL--- for George and me, April 21, 2001 at Fall Creek Falls State Park here in Tennessee was the date that we professed our love for each other. We had only been dating less than a month but for us, we both knew that God had put us together since we both moved to Tennessee for new jobs in December of 2000. On that special day, I got my first kiss, he held my hand for the first time, and we both said that we wanted to be together for the rest of our lives... Fall Creek Falls is also where our interest in searching for WATERFALLS began.
Almost every year, since 2001, we make the short trip on (or near) April 21 ---and relive those special memories.... After our marriage in June of 2001, we have truly been inseparable (except when George had to go to Ireland for several days on a business trip).... That was a very long week for me since I missed him so much.
The greatest part of this special love between two people who were 59 years old, is that our love has never wavered ---and continues to grow more and more with each passing year.... Thanks be to God.
If you would like to read a couple of blog posts I wrote about our love, how it all began, etc. --

This year, we went to Fall Creek Falls on April 22 (since April 21 was Easter Sunday). Again, as we always have done, we retraced our steps taking pictures along the way... SO--today I'll share some of the pictures from that awesome day at Fall Creek Falls... Hope you enjoy reliving that special day with us today 18 years later!!

| Walking toward the overlook at Fall Creek Falls, 4/22/19; We picked a fantastic day to go there. It was the day after Easter and there weren't many people in the park, even though we had a gorgeous, sunny day.... NOTE: I'm not sure we have ever been to this (the main) overlook in the park without lots of people around. Amazing! |

| On April 22--we had almost NO new leaves on our big trees at home yet (we do now). SO---I was so excited at seeing leaves on the trees at Fall Creek Falls that day, that I just HAD to take a picture of the sun coming through the trees... Isn't that just SO beautiful? |
