So I Married an Ogre
July 5th 2004 by Leisa in generalI got a call from Paul today saying he felt like an Ogre. We spent the last 3 days of our 4 day vacation working in the yard. The yard work was brutal. We got a unit of bark dust, trimmed all of the Rhododendrons and a couple of over grown cedar trees removed 4 bushes. Paul built a retaining wall, poured concrete steps and back filled the wall.
We celebrated our 11th anniversary on Friday. We had a ‘romance’ package at the
Hotel Oregon in McMinnville. Everyone we met that worked at the Hotel knew it was our anniversary. We ate dinner at the Rooftop Bar. We were had drinks inside while we waited for a table to open up. We jumped up at the same time as the group at the table next to us. We offered it to them and they asked us how long we had been married (strange question) I said 11 years today and they offered it back to us. 2 min later a bigger table opened up for their group.
We split a bottle of Edgefield extra dry Sparkling Wine on the 2nd Story Balcony and met people who bottled the wine.
