Smile New Wife, New Car

Well its been 2 weeks today that I got hitched. We had a 4 day weekend and decided to cruise on down to St. Augustine Fla. We got there late Friday so we had to go Monday and get the license and we're married by the bay(beside the bridge of lions) about an hour later. We stayed in a motel right across the street from the bay. It was in the 80s that day and a bit windy but all in all we couldn't ask for a nicer day. We almost bought an 03 Mach that afternoon but decided not too. We did however run across an 04 Mach last friday night that she insisted I test drive and that was it, I had to have it. Got it for $25k out the door. Here is a picture of us by the bay.

Well, well. Congratulations! Good to hear some GOOD news. Great finds (car and wife). Since you've done so well, I'll have to put you to work for me. I'll need one of each. (but if you can't find the woman, just bring me a Mach 1 -- blue, please).....

Smile Life is good!

Thanks for all the kind works, we really are happy and it just goes to show.... Coupe Devil does have a snowballs chance! Seriously, she was reading all the replies and couldn't believe all the nice post and how friendly everyone was(and knew my name), I just told her these are all friends of mine.

She wanted to get married in the Keys but there was no way in hell I was going to drive 14 hrs or more for the short period of time we had(4 day weekend). We decided St Augustine was perfect and its also the oldest city in America, sounded great.

Thanks again guys!!
