This question has been asked of Henry and I on and off for the past several years. Seems we're beating the odds as we've almost made it to 25 years together. I was curious to how many more of you have made a go at a life on the road and kept your partnership together.

Walt Harris · « **Reply #1 on:** Jul 23, 2004, 11:19 »

21 years and counting!

Got "hitched" 2 months after hitting the road in 1983.

Like I heard someone on the radio say .... "Divorce has never been an option, .... though on occasion MURDER has come to mind ....."

Truth is, there is probably no one else on the face of the earth that would put up with me.

Unlike the rest of you, we have made it 6 years and counting. Congrats to all 20+ year couples! In this day and age it is making a statement to commitment to stay married over 10 years!
Update...We were Jr. High sweethearts and apart for 26 years before finding each other again and then deciding to marry...what an amazing world we live in! Karma to everyone!

Me and ratwife have been married over 25 years now

, I got married after getting out of the Navy (nuke subs) during my first commercial outage. We traveled together for many years until the rug-rats got old enough for school, then ratwife nested and I went out on outages. I got one in College now and one just turning 16. We are working on getting darkson a truck (I introduced him to the wonders of Bondo).

Camella Black · « **Reply #8 on:** Jul 24, 2004, 04:58 »

Congrats! Just wait until darkson is out of house too, then you and ratwife can go back to traveling together. Thats what hubby and I do, of course I go back and forth home cause they (the kids) just can't seem to do without momma.

There are still a few of us old timers that have beat the odds and are still married after a career as a Road Tech. I just passed 27 years with the same wife. She was an HP on the road with me for the first 5 years. I just met up with another couple that I had not seen since Oyster Creek in 1978.
It is easier now as I only do a couple of outages a year and we all know that it is hard to find a job that lasts more than 4 -5 weeks.

Forgive my ignorance...
what is a road tech (I assume you travel to fix stuff, but what do you all really do, how long do you travel) and what is an outage (again, when the power is out, but for a storm/disaster)? Hub has been navy since he graduated hs and still is. My uncle did line work in upstate NY, and used to travel when big storms would take out lines all over the state.

we have been married going on 9 years, all of it navy time. 2 girls. it's wonderful to see families who have survived being apart!!

a "roadtech" is essentially a contractor or any one else that is part of the temporary labor force brought in during the outages which is a shut down for maintenance and refueling purposes. Many consider a road tech HP or Decon but really the term can include any other profession that one would travel around and prostitute ones self to any given company for any amount of time generally for the most money one can find. I know this isnt a great description but gimme a break I just worked until 3am. Im sure some of these fine folks can go at it in further detail!

Mike, (you know I still call you Spanky) LOL. Yes time has flown by, I find it hard to believe it at times but the mirror, scale and my growing children don't lie.

I commend anyone who has weathered the storm of marriage + life on the road. I have spent many holidays, weeks and even months either seperated from my parents and family or from my husband.

Techs today have no idea what being homesick is. For the most part they are spoiled and can't wait to miss a few days of a short outage to run home for the holidays. Don't get me wrong, I miss Henry and I like for us to be together. But I remember the time when outages were 9 months or longer and it may be 3, 4, or even 5+ months between trips home or us being together.

So here's to anyone whose made past the 7 year itch mark, I commend you.

P.S. Mike were you part of that crowd of newbies I helped chaperone to the Hank Williams concert?

Mike McFarlin · « **Reply #64 on:** Nov 10, 2006, 12:58 »

No, I had been around since 78. Glad to hear that you both have learned to weather the storm when so many others have not. I miss the long outages and the security of going from one job to another. I remember the dialing for dollars with all the different companies. Also miss the friends you would make back then because of the length of the jobs.
I'm still Spanky (thanks to Mark Cooper)and guess I always will be. I have just 1 more day at Beaver Valley (1 month outage that turned into 2).
Take care and stay in touch....Spanky

It's been about 33 years so far and around half of that time, both of us were on the road and working together. The last 16 has been spent at pretty much one location, though. Techs that knew him before we met would have never believed he would still be married at this point in time.

It's been about 33 years so far....

in late '06 it was twenty years,....

now, in early '17 it is 33 years,...

which just goes to the point that married years are like dog years,....

the longer they go on the shorter they get and the more they pile up,...

until eventually, when you say 50 years, ya might as well just claim eternity,....

OK, let me clarify. Married for 30 and "living in sin" on the road for the other 3. Math should be about right, now.

If you add them all up >40 years.

No progress for me I'm still in the +25 category.

OK now I have made progress but just because I added a +35 category

My count stopped 32 years ago at 17 years. Never have found a suitable replacement.

My statement is like nukewood's. I have been married a total of 35 years! It took two marriages to get there but you do what you gotta do.

My marriage is old enough to drink this year. Think I'll take us out for a beer.

Thought I would revive this one just for fun.

I have recently reached my 42nd year of remedial husband training.
