I met my hubby at the gas station where I worked at when I was in High school. He was just home from a tour of service in the very early years of Vietnam War. We had things in common and when he asked me to go out with him , I said yes. I found out where the watermelons in our family history came from and who was responsible for it. He told me it was my uncle and he who had been stealing watermelons one night . He pulled a prank on my uncle and was telling me about it. I surprised him by asking if his friend's name was Doug Parker. He said yea, how did you know. I said he was my uncle. Jan of 2012 will be 37 years together.
