After three years I finally decided to make an honest woman out of her... asked Donna to marry me Labour Day weekend...   :yahoo:





and married her 6 weeks later...





A friend of ours made the cake... exact replica of each of our back tires and sprockets in between!



Road trippin' to Tennessee (including Deal's Gap of course), Georgia, and the Carolina's for our honeymoon...

Timing has much to do with the success of a rain dance.

Donna is a great girl, and you make the perfect couple, Derek.
I'm very happy for you and proud to know you and have had the opportunity
to share a couple of rallys with you.

Take care.

Thanks for the replies gents.  Yes, Donna is a great girl, Leon.  I feel like I became a better person when I met her.  She has been to 3 rallies with me now and has really enjoyed meeting some of the FJ brotherhood.
