The Honeymoon Disaster That Sparked A Marvelous Marriage is a true-to-life story of a marriage that literally began “on the rocks” and would have figuratively ended up “on the rocks” if God had not intervened. “I remember, even to this day, catching the weight of the surrey with my right leg, which amazingly didn’t break, and pushing it back upright since it had landed sideways on the rocks.
