We were next door neighbors when I was too young to think about love and he was going to Vietnam. However is was love that existed between us.He went to war, I married my children's father and went to war myself, another version however. Eric and I never saw each other or spoke again for 36 years. I had been single for 14 years, had not dated for 5 years and swore off dating and marriage for life when I moved back to Mississippi after living 30 years in the Nashville area of Tennessee. His wife of 34 years had passed away from Cancer and he showed up at my door one day and 36 years proved no match for those young love feelings. We dated for 4 years and then married ! I moved to Swiftwater Farm and began living the good life!
He knows how to relax.....
He's the hardest working retired man I know of and will work till he drops to full fill my dreams!
He'll traipse off to where ever to attend a book signing with me!
He's a great fisherman....some he finds, remember the Bass who swallowed the Bream?
And some he catches!! 17 pound Catfish from our pond!
He's a wonderful step-dad to my children!He and my son Marty at son Todd's in Oklahoma..
He never had a daughter, " the girl " has him wrapped around her little finger!
He's best buds with my 81 year old Dad and carts him 90 miles to his VA appointments!
The BEST Paw Paw in the world!
They love him...........He taught grandson Kohl to shoot a 22 rifle last week. He is now Kohl's all time hero!
Molly showing out for Paw Paw!
He'll fly over New Orleans with you in a little bitty plane!
He loves the Smokies just as much as me....
He'll dress up and go to family functions!
And he married me in the Smokies!! My dream wedding! Happy Birthday sweetheart, thank you for loving me!!
As he says; " grass don't grow under our feet, we keep it cut" !!
The Courtyard fence is finished except for one gate!
Can you see the tropical plants growing down the left side? 10 foot Cannas, Banana Trees and Elephant ears? Running Roses on the right next to the pond? Hardy Hibiscus in different colors growing 8 foot high across the back? I might even throw a Palm in that left corner!
This side gate is the only construction left to do....
This is where running roses will be. Don't want to block view of the pond!
A closer view....
The Peek Gang are loving their new outside digs!
Especially the " fat boys"..............
Ahwwwww all that romping makes Patch a tired little boy!
Jake still stays his distance, he can't stand it when the boys chase him! HA!
HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE!!!
