In June of 1982, a wrong number led to a beautiful, long-lasting marriage. This August, I'm celebrating 42 incredible years of marriage to my husband, Dwight. It's been a remarkable journey that began with a chance encounter. It all started one day when Dwight mistakenly called me at my job working with Colorado State Parks in search of Elton John concert tickets. After a brief chat, I informed him he had the wrong number, but he called back about 45 minutes later with a different intention.
