Nice work man! I'm sitting here at 11, waiting for my wife to get me a guitar

Congratulations!!!
If the proper gift for a 20th anniversary isn't a guitar, it damn well should be. Here's to 20 more!

Congratulations Lee & of course Jennifer, it takes two to Tango! Time flies by, blink and it's 20 years. (Blink twice and it's 32 years...)

And being Canadian and all i have to ask, what was weather like 20 years ago today?

In a day and age where it's become socially acceptable to give in when the going gets tough, I am always inspired by those who stand by their commitment to marriage. Twenty years is a true testament to your hard work and faith! Congrats Lee and Jennifer!

Wow there is a lot of long timers here. 3 years myself.

Also, double congrats on only having 2 guitars.

Resisting GAS and sticking to 2 is an accomplishment in itself IMO  ;)

Thanks guys. And wow! I didn't realize we had so many success stories around here. It makes sense. A wife that puts up with all the guitar nonsense and GAS is probably easy going and easy to be with.

Time flies when your wife is hot and awesome.  8) ;D

^^^This really is about as simple as it is for me.^^^ And we don't waste a lot of energy trying to fix each other. She knows I know the crap I need to work on, so she doesn't nag me about being a better man etc. What a blessing.

Congratulations for sure! My wife and I are coming up on 18. I agree with anyone who says it feels way too fast.

I love that Strat by the way...it's the Bob Mould color as close as I can tell.

Yes, WAY too fast!! It's unreal. The strat is Lake Placid Blue. So glad I went for this color. It's perfect. You kind of have to see it in person to get the true sense of it though. It's hard to capture in pics.

WOW! 32!! Nice job man. Haha. Find Washougal, Washington on a map and you can probably guess. Pacific Northwest between October and about June = rain. Yesterday was gorgeous though. About 80F until the evening and then a spring thunderstorm in the distance. Perfect day.

Thanks Jon. I wish I could take more of the credit. I know I'm the harder one to live with. We really do like each other though. We've definitely faced some of the pressures that destroy marriages. If we weren't solid friends, we never would have made it (despite her hotness).

3 years is a good start! Keep it up bro.

These are just the guitars she's bought me. The Guild was a wedding present from her. I play it a lot and it still looks pretty much brand new. The Strat was my Christmas present this year from her. I also have a Tele (Squier with upgraded electronics), and an Agile AD2300. I've been through other guitars too. There are others I want, but I acquire things slowly and try to be as content as I can with the stuff I have. I'm hoping to build a more legit Tele and ditch the Squier within the next couple years.

Congrats!

This is seriously inspiring (and I thought the inspiring section was "build reports" :D)!

Congratulations!  I am going for 35 this year (not women, marital years) with the same woman.  There have been hard times and good times, but I am glad I still have the same women.  When possible, it also is a great example to your kids too.  It is my parents dedication to each other that helped me want to get through some pretty rough times.  They just celebrated 60 years together.  Hang in there man, it gets better as you go!
Cuz they's made for Giggin!

Congrats!  Coming up on 13 years, dated for four prior.

Her tolerance for gas, etc, goes a long way, and like much in life, is often balanced by an equal and opposite force, in this case known as shoes.
