Ok, last night my wife and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary by going to a live Musical at Goodspeed Theather, in East Haddam, Connecticut. Her father was born and raised in Oklahoma before it became a state. The Musical is all about a love story and the wide open ranges of Oklahoma. The cast of this show is fantastic, and the lead singers for it are great. First, we went to dinner at the Gelston House next door and while it was a package dinner and theatre package, the meal was at best, passable to both of us.
The Show though was far from just good it was great, the performers can sing their buns off. We laughed and cried with the characters and the audience was drawn in by the performers, who had their parts down like the back of their hands. If you get a chance and want to see a good live performance, of a Rogers and Hammerstein’s classic I recommend you get tickets before it goes, it will be there until September 27th, 2017, it is held over due to sold out performances! It’s more than a hit, it’s enjoyable, immersive and fun, they will make you sing, laugh and enjoy.
Ok, like I said it was our 17th, Wedding Anniversary and we had a good time just the wife and I. 17 years of marriage and 24 years together going on 25, is a feat for sure. We have had our arguments, differences and so much more. Marriage folks consist of compromise, caring, love, friendship, open communication. In our case, it also involves cancer for both of us and we stick by and support each other every day. My wife God Bless Her Soul had been a Breast Cancer Survivor since 2006, and in 2016 ten years later it went from Breast cancer to Bone Cancer. Meanwhile, in the meantime ,I was hit with Lung Cancer in 2013 and survived that too. We never wavered and never would think of running away or not staying with each other, I really don’t care what anyone says or does except us. When it all ends, for us one way or another if she goes first, there will never be a replacement for her, in my life for me. I will love her till my dying breath, no matter what! We laughed, we cry, we talk and we live together and she is my everything!
