Looking Back

It feels like it was yesterday, but it was nearly a year ago that we decided to go on 60 dates. Sue had the idea since my 60th birthday is 12/31/2018. I was tasked with setting up the dates, and scheduling the dates and Sue could not object. Anything could count as a date, big and small events. Now we are at the end of this journey and we made it. I am convinced we forgot to record some of our dates because we had so many. But it was great! The kids are growing up and leaving the nest, and this leaves just Sue and me.

Where do we go from here? At the end of 2019, we have our 30th Wedding Anniversary. This is another great opportunity to come up with a plan. So… for 2019 we plan 30 dates but we want to only count the little bigger once. Let’s see where are at the end of the year. We will be off to a great start with a trip to Cancun on Jan 5th.  You can follow it on a new blog at

This blog was written after the fact, but we want to keep the next one up as we go. We don’t publish this blog to gather attention. It is a great way to capture memories and share with our family. Also, w had friends that really liked the idea and try to do something similar. One of our friends goes for
 Dates in 2019 and another one for 28 (wedding anniversary). There are a few others that I am not sure what exactly they do, but they are trying to spend more time together. These days we are all busy with careers, kids, hobbies and many other things. Therefore it is even more important to take care of each other and cherish each others company. We fell in love at one time and we need to make sure that this does not get lost in the daily routine and the stress of our lives.
