My husband, Don, and I always try to do something special for our anniversary. Lucky for us, our wedding was in March, a great time to travel. We’ve been all over. New York. The Rockies. New Orleans.
For our thirty-sixth anniversary, I wanted something extra fun. These trips are an annual opportunity to remind each other why we got married in the first place. That might not be obvious to an outside observer because Don and I are polar opposites.
Don’s an early riser. I hate mornings. Don likes everything done a certain way. I’m more…go with the flow. Don was in the Marines. I would have washed out of basic training on day one.
On anniversary trips, those differences melt away and we remember how much we enjoy being together.
Both my sister, Karen, and my friend Wanda suggested the same destination for our thirty-sixth: Eureka Springs, Arkansas.
It’s a charming mountain town in the heart of the Ozarks.
