Month of Love Day 9

"Love that is true never grows old."  ~ Elben Bano

Out of the book "1001 Ways To Be Romantic" by Gregory J.P. Godek. . .

# 749 - "Go for a horse-drawn carriage ride through the city - or the country."
      (this is something we have done several times, and it really is nice and it cost us
       about $35 for the hour)

#765 - "You do, of course, carry a photo of her in your wallet, don't you?
             And you and av eight-by-ten of her on your desk at work, right?"

**Other suggestions. . .
I will never forget the day (many many years ago), we jumped in the car early one weekend morning.  There really wasn't a plan, just to drive.  It wasn't premeditated, however once in the car we thought about driving to a local "Amish country" that is really about 2-3 hours away.  We drove, laughed, sang to the radio, talked and had a great time.  Once we arrived in this little quiet town, there were no shops open, no restaurants open, not even the gas station was open.  We realized it was Sunday!  I guess the whole town shuts down on Sunday.  Who knew?  It is one of the best memories we have together from our "early years".  We still drove around the country looking at all the houses, farms and such, headed back the 2-3 hours toward our home town, ate dinner and made many memories that day.  It was spontaneous, it was fun, and there was some romance there as well.
