Yesterday was our 52nd wedding anniversary so a memory lane tour seemed a good idea. We drove to Arlington, Texas where most of our significant locations are intact. Pic#1 is Arlington Theater where we met. #2 is Woods Chapel Baptist Church where we were married. #3 is my home place on Lombardy lane. One shot at DFW National Cemetery remembering Barbara's Dad who went ashore on Omaha Beach during D Day. (He survived). Finally a shot at Dallas Baptist University where we both earned degrees. Finally home sweet home!
Thanks for indulging a sentimental old goat.

It was a special day, thanks
Brobill,
You are a lucky man by having some of the places you knew when you were younger, still being around to visit. Very nice memories.
Love your photo of your present home place.
Didn't know of DFW cemetery until your post. Hope its maintained as well as it looks from your photo. Where abouts is it located?

DFW Nat'l is on Mountain Creek Pkwy on Dallas' South border with Grand Prairie. Across Mountain Creek Lake from Dallas JRB ( old Naval Air Station).
Thanks.
Their web site shows a very well maintained cemetery.
Congratulations on your 52nd anniversary. I grew up in Arlington nice to see a few of the places you posted.

Old theater is now Arlington Music Hall. Great artist play there. Plan to se Gatlin Bros in August
Thanks for taking us on your memory tour. Happy 52 anniversary.
Congratulations on your 52nd anniversary, brobill! I loved each one of your images! We're not too far behind you; we have our 48th coming up!

But we were just kids when we married graduation week 1965. All that can be said about that is , "We got away with it!" Our friends that married then didn't stay together.
