Hi Guys and Gals.
You haven't heard from me in a while but this thread got my attention! (I don't believe I'm going to tell you all this one!)

WAY back in the late 1960's, my Friend Tom had a house on Mirror Lake. He had this "girl friend" who was "saving herself" for marriage. So,Tom asked her to marry him, and they decided one weekend to "Elope" and get married. My friend Danny got an "Alter boy's outfit," from our church. and we stole a "Justice of the Peace," sign, from some place on the way up, and hung it on Tom's parent's cottage. One of our other Older friends, "Officiated the ceremony!" She thought it was for real, and didn't find out until after the weekend, and the Honeymoon, was over, that it was all a joke! She wouldn't talk to us again, until the next year when they DID get married and we were all in the wedding. Boy her DAD would have kicked out butts!
Can anyone beat that one!
Your friend,
"The Eagle"
