Forty-two

Family

If 42 is the answer, then what is the question? In this case, it’s not what Douglas Adams fans might expect. It’s “How many years have Steve & Karen been married?”  Forty-two years ago tonight we stood on the altar at Nativity Church here in Cincinnati and made a covenant with one another in the presence of Fr Joseph Allison, our families, and a few of our friends. Yesterday we went to Mass at Nativity. This afternoon we got a treat at Busken Bakery, the source of our wedding cake (look in the background on the right side of the photo). And this evening we had a most delicious home style meal at The Century Inn, established 1806, complete with some incredible craft beers and finished with a fine blackberry cobbler. There’s even enough meatloaf leftovers for a couple of sandwiches tomorrow. And as a nod to Douglas Adams, we’re watching “A Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” tonight!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
