Well Rick you missed it by 1 day - Yesterday was the 75th Anniversary of My Mothers Shotgun Wedding. My grandfather, Old Clarence held the doubleought six on Dad as the knot was tied.

Dad had a Harley Motorcycle with sidecar and courted my mother for a week at our farm - After a toss in the hay he left.
Grandfather = old Clarence got in his Ford and tracked Dad all the way to Minnesota - 10 days later the posse was back and the wedding duly held.
The shells stayed in the
gun - over the door - until both sons were 18. Then Dad hightailed it to Alaska.

When Mom passed, I found the paper bag note that Dad left on the nightstand "Sorry Elnora, It's Not Going To Work - Dave" ==

But the old Remington Ruled Differently. No Gown, Flowers, Diamond, Rice Or Bubbles - - -
Now that was a Real Fort Benton Wedding.
