Portrait of B. from a day on the lake. 1983.

 


Time passes so quickly. It seems like just yesterday that I met my best friend but really...it was in 1973. We got married in 1985 after working together, side-by-side for a few years, at our advertising agency. I guess this month we're coming up on 39 years of married life. It's been heaven. 

Of course she is far, far smarter than I. Has more University degrees and is much better at things like...common sense. 

She is the APO Summicron of spouses. Just thought I'd get a bit sentimental and share.

    “She is the APO Summicron of spouses.”

    That’s nice, Kirk. Here’s to another 39 years of marriage for you and B.

    Congrats to you and B! My wife and I just celebrated our 40th three days ago. All of my buddies concur 100%... their wives are the better half of the marriage and it's not even close.

    I'd have to agree 1000%

    Congratulations to you and B. May you enjoy many more!

    However, I have to say that I think I did much better - I have the APO Voigtlander of wives. Mind you, I'm not suggesting we swap lenses to see who's right. :)

    “She is the APO Summicron of spouses.” This made me laugh. I feel the same way about my wife... although it never occurred to me to put it in those particular words!
