Yep. Monday (tomorrow) is going to be my wife and my 46th wedding anniversary! How I ever got so lucky to meet and marry the best wife I could ever hope to have is beyond me, but, somehow it happened.

To celebrate, tomorrow we're going for a cruise on Peoria's "The Spirit of Peoria" paddle-wheeler riverboat. We'll spend the night at a well known Illinois state park called "Starved Rock" and then return on Tuesday on board the riverboat. Should be fun and, as I understand it, there's great food in abundance served on the boat and at the lodge!

Looking forward to a wonderful anniversary!
