It&#8217;s so late, that I&#8217;m going to wait until tomorrow to download the pictures from the hooked rug show we saw today, Gabe&#8217;s night at gymnastics and Homer&#8217;s party. Hope that&#8217;s OK with everyone. <br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp; Today also&nbsp; marks the 22nd anniversary of the day that Diane and I got engaged. We were living in Winchester in the south of England. Diane was working hard grad school work. We dressed up and went to the Chessil Rectory, a 14th century church rectory that had been redone into a very nice resturant. After dinner we walked back home along the river. It was a cold and drizly evening as many were in England. I got down on my knee and asked Diane to marry me.. and then she did the same. I gave her a ring I&#8217;d made for her in my blacksmitthing class.. Pretty delicate for soemthing made out of 1\/4 inch&nbsp; steel barstock.. but a little clunky just the same&#8230; After that we wandered home. I remember that night so well. Diane, I&#8217;m so glad you said &#8216;yes&#8217; !.. I love you very much.<br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp; <br \/>One picture I do have to upload is the wonderful poter that our friends made for the upcoming Sam Cohn Foundation concert.&nbsp; It&#8217;s on Saturday Nov 24th at the West Monitor Barn in Richmond. Please pass the word along..!<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 496px; height: 742px;\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/nov0907\/Concert-1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\">G&#8217;nite all, g&#8217;nite Sam<br \/>-me<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was a busy and full day.It&#8217;s really late now as I&#8217;ve just come back from Homer&#8217;s birthday in Vergennes.
