17 Wedding Anniversary

August 28th.

The sun was out, and the sky was clear. It was Chen Jin's parents' 25th wedding anniversary. A very special day. The anniversary for a marriage of 50 years was a "Golden Wedding," so 25 years was half a Golden Wedding.

His Father, Chen Gang, had given a lot of thought to it; he took a day off to spend this extraordinary day with his wife, He Li, to do a wedding photo-shoot. When they got married 25 years ago, the economic development in the country had been pretty average; people were generally not very wealthy. It was this city, Shanghai, that had the best economy. There weren't too many newlyweds that had the extra money to spend on a wedding photo-shoot then. At most, they would take one indoor picture.
