Below, is a picture of Tami and I just after we started going out together.  Tami had two kids (Andy on my lap, Nichole on mom's lap) from her first marriage.  We were camping near Astoria, Oregon one weekend when a stranger stopped to take a picture of us.  Not a significant picture, I just like it.  We pretty much had next to no money and few material things, but I remember it as a time of being happy just being able to spend time together.  Tami had to work on me, but I would eventually marry her some 10 years after this picture was taken.  How she ever outlasted me, I will never know.  Hopefully she will have that kind of patience when working on my airplane project.
