Year of Memory: 1959

MaryLou and I were both docents and first met in front of the duck-billed dinosaur. I wrote a silly poem asking her to go canoeing and camping for the weekend. A bold invite back then. She said yes right away but invited another fellow from India. She was secretary for the International Student’s Association and said she felt sorry for him because he’d never been canoeing. So, our first date was a threesome on the Au Sable! We got married 6 months later. Maybe she felt sorry for me.
