Not long after I took this photograph of a nineteen-year-old college student posing beside a 1966 Harley-Davidson Sprint, she married the owner of the motorcycle. The date of the wedding was Sunday, the twenty-fifth of July, 1971. I am publishing this photo and its caption on Sunday, the twenty-fifth of July, 2021. Wondering if the twenty-fifth of July is scheduled to fall again on Sunday when another fifty years have passed, I looked it up. Nope. It’s scheduled to be a Saturday. Funny, isn’t it, how some things don’t work out quite the way we might expect.
