We have been blessed to meet and become friends with the Broughtons', a
family from Alberta. On the full time RV,
and winter Texan, circuit we meet people from time to time who are traveling,
or spending time, with a brother or
sister. In the Broughtons’ case there
are three of them, two brothers and a sister, all spending their winters
together here at Tropic Star. All three
of them are here with their spouses, and each of the couples has been together
for 50 or more years.
Bernie and I enjoy their company so very much and this post
is devoted to wishing them a Happy Anniversary.
Once a year Tropic Star has a dinner and a re commitment
service for those that are celebrating their 50th anniversary. Some people wait a year or two, or more, to
participate. Pat and her husband Peter, waited a couple of years so that the three
couples were able to celebrate it together. Last
night Ken and Doreen invited us, as their guests, to come to the anniversary dinner. Today, Sunday, in the afternoon the six of
them will participate in the re commitment service.
Janet Ashcroft, the activity director, here at Tropic Star,
her husband Jack, and a number of volunteers created a five star dinner for
us. The food was great, the company was
fantastic and the evening was first class.
Happy Anniversary
Ken, Doreen, Robert, Helen, Pat and Peter
