Congratulations.  Five years is indeed something to celebrate.  A feel good news flash always does the heart good.

You do not post as much as you did in the past, yet you always had something insightful to say with economy of words.   Hope to see more of you and other married guys in the future.

Congratulations Vaughn...  you're an example many of us hope to follow.  I always enjoy reading your perspective on life with a RW. 

Congrats again!

Thanks, everyone. At some point long ago she stopped being my
Russian wife and started simply being my wife, period. The novelty
of her heritage almost vanished, and the nuances of language and
cultural differences became so comfortable for us.

Voyageur, we're going to be up on Long Island for a week in
September, roughly the 9th through the 14th - how about a
long overdue lunch somewhere in Nassau County?

Vaughn,

Thanks for the invite. Unfortunately we are located near Lake Ontario, and a ride to Nassau County would take the better part of the day. If you ever find yourself in the central part of NY, let me know and we'll have that lunch.  :)

jj, absolutely, let's meet one day. You've got my cell number.

Voyageur, my apologies - I've been away so long I'm afraid I
had you mixed up with Viking - who lives on Long Island....
