DAY TWO--PART I: GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY WEEK: "LAUNCHING A BALLOON"

THis morning Bob and I decided we would launch a note on a mylar balloon. Launch date is Friday, date of our actual 50th wedding anniversary. We'll attach a note with our address, phone #, email address...
We'll have to come out of the valley, of course, or the note will end up tangled in our trees. Perhaps we'll go to Kevin's house because it's on a high knoll that seems to sit above everything.
Or perhaps we'll go to St. Mary's where our wedding took place, and launch it from there.
Or perhaps we'll hit the highway to Westfield, NY, and send it from there. That's where we stayed on our wedding night.
We haven't decided.
The launch of our anniversary balloon is a symbol to us, that even after 50 years, we still have a bit of our youth in our hearts.
