Peebles Island

 We had a trip planned to go to Peebles that we had to put off a week not realizing that the next Sunday Popster had a golf tournament.  It was a beautiful day so Jess, Tyler & I went anyway.  Mistake # 2 came when we got into the village of Waterford we noticed they were holding a 5K race. We drove down the street towards the bridge & parking area & found it was closed for the race.  We found a parking spot on the street & walked down.  Mistake # 3.....the race was just starting & they were running across the bridge & around part of the island
 Mistake # 4 we decided to walk across the road part of the bridge to stay out of their way
 That was a great idea until we got to the part that was a steel grid that the dogs couldn't walk on....h*ll we could hardly walk on it!  Jess said "no biggie I'll just carry Molly"....all 55lbs of her!  Crazy girl!!




 It was a perfect day for pics as the sky kept changing
 See the big fat fish?

 We've had no rain this year so the ducks are practically walking on the rocks

46 years ago...............................

Today is our anniversary & I  have decided this post will be my version about how we met.......Popster's version would more than likely not be the same but that's how we roll! It was new year's eve 1963....yikes!.......I was a telephone operator in a little town called Huntingdon in England.  It was about 3 miles from Alconbury, an amercan air force base.  All calls went thru our switchboard including ones from the base so consequently we got to know all the GIs.  we would meet them at the Nickel Coin.........pictured here during our coffee..... or should I say tea?....breaks & lunch hours.  Whenever some newbies were transfered in they would be brought to town to meet the local girls. It was not "love at first sight"......I thought he was kinda nerdy & he thought I was a "stuck-up english broad"!  It was a few weeks later when he asked me to go to the movies that I realized he wasn't so "nerdy", so I guess we'll call
