Happy 50th - working on 29 myself, but she isn't much for the outdoors though.

Glad to see you two so happy together after all of these years.

Congratulations!  That is very admirable.  

My wife and I are working on 19 years and I still haven't gotten her to go hunting with me but once.

How about some more of them pictures?

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

50th ... is that diamonds? Or maybe diamond broad head sharpener. Continued happiness to the both of you.

May you have many more years of shared blessings, Ron and Nancy!

Hmm. I was three when you got hitched!   :eek:
Sorry that I didn't see this yesterday, but Mockingbird and I spent the whole day in a way of which you would approve. We helped to slaughter and butcher hogs, shared what we knew with children (trad archery and the whole flint and steel thing) and enjoyed good old-fashioned country ways and fellowship. I hope that someday I might have done a fraction of the good work that you and your wonderful bride have accomplished in the preservation and forwarding of our heritage of traditional lore.

Congratulations on a shared life well-lived, and mates well chosen. It is a proud path that you two are walking.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Nancy and I had a great time at the dinner party last night. Thanks to the Shrew Haven Crew and their lovely wives who went out of their way to make it a very special and memorable evening.

Greg and Dianne, Roger and Laurie and Kevin and Lisa, thank you. A special thanks to Dianne for the delicious cake she made and for all the decorations and corsages.

     

Carlton and his lovely wife Kathy stopped by to give their congratulations. Carlton is the Blacksmith who makes the Shrew Hawks.

   

Our Wedding picture set at the end of the table the entire evening.

Ron & Redbird,
Got in at midnight last night after driving home in the snow for 2 hrs, yes, it does snow in TN sometimes. I get up, get on TG here and what do I find.... ? One of life's greatest things, two people who have shared 50 years together. Congrats Ron & Redbird !!!

We attended the second annual TTAS banquet at Pappy'place in Twin Oaks. TJ and Chad did a wonderful job speaking, but I could not help but think back to last year and our very first TTAS banquet. We sure missed you fine folk, but as we all see now...... You had, "bigger fish to fry ". Congrats again on 50 wonderful years and memories.  :notworthy:

Ron and Nancy,

Wonderful story hearing about the two of you spending half a century together. Thanks for all the pictures of the happy couple. That looks like Dave Nelson (Ozzie and Harriett's older son) in the wedding picture!   :goldtooth:

Best wishes,

Just got home from the UBI Banquet and saw this. Congratulations to you Ron and Nancy! Divorces are making this pretty rare. Jeanne and I started our 52nd year of marriage last October.
Time spent alone in the woods puts you closer to God.

Congratulations to both of you. 50 years together is special. My parents just spent their 55th year together and I am celebrating my 25th next week. I hope me and my wife make another 25 and be as blessed as you and Ms. Nancy.

HAPPY 50th Ron and Nancy!!

I'm 8 months away from 25 years with the same wife. And it seems to get harder every year.
It takes something special for a couple to stay together as long as you have.
Perhaps I need to try again to interest my wife in archery, (hunting may be pushing it). That may be what it takes to see us through to the 50th!

CONGRATULATIONS AND HOPE YOU ENJOY MANY MORE YEARS TOGETHER!!!!!   :clapper:    :clapper:    :clapper:
