I love to hear ...Mary (Shirley),<BR/><BR/>What a great post! I love to hear stories about the ways people met and their courtship. It reminds me of some things my mama and daddy told me of their courtship. Mama was in nursing school and shared a room with another girl who was a student also. The other girl had a date with a boy who was my dad's best friend. This particular night, my dad was with him when he went to pick the other girl up for the date. Mama's roommate suggested she go with them since her date's friend came along too.<BR/>Mama did, and the rest is history.<BR/><BR/>My daddy likes to tell everone that he got Mama from a "Mental Institution", which he did! She was staying at the Psychiatric Hospital in Raleigh where she was taking her psychiatric training when they got married. It was highly unusual for nursing students to marry while in training. Somehow, they got permission from the Doctor in charge of the program and were married before she graduated. Her first nursing job was at the Moore County Hospital in Pinehurst NC.<BR/><BR/>She told me many stories of their life before my sister and I came along.<BR/><BR/>Oh! By the way, I will try the caramel apples. I love them!<BR/><BR/>Talk to you later,<BR/>Plant LadyPlant Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08568211345190806277noreply@blogger.com
