Anna's late
father Paul was the manager of Veach's Wholesale Grocery. Grady Veach was the owner.
Anna and I
were married fifty years ago yesterday, December 9th, 1967. For a honeymoon we rented a cabin at Unicoi
State Park near Helen for a week.
As a wedding
present Grady Veach gave us $100 for groceries for our honeymoon.
We were to
go to the Helen for a 50th Wedding Anniversary weekend but the snowy weather
had other plans. Not only did it make
driving difficult but it knocked out the power in our house.
Today in the
afternoon the power was restored. We
went through our freezer to determine what could be saved and what had to be
thrown away.
We threw
away about $100 worth of food no good.
50 years ago
Mr. Veach gave us $100. This weekend the
weather took it back.
Easy come,
easy go.
