My sister-in-law married a guy that she picked up on the side of the
road. They got married after a couple of weeks. It was quite an
uncomfortable time when we stayed at their place back in the 70's. There
was fighting and physical abuse. He was prone to giving me goofy advice
on automobile repair, which I promptly ignored. He was quite shook-up
when his best buddy was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered, by drug
dealers. He was into some really bad things - he was your typical bad
news kind of guy.

50 years later, my sister-in-law and husband have built a life for
themselves. They have a homestead with goats and chickens and even raise
bees. They have a lot of grand kids that adore them and have raised a
large number of kids as foster parents. My sister-in-law and her husband
were made to raise kids. When my wife's sister comes over, she brings me
a batch of fudge that her husband made. If you ask me, their story is an
amazing, unlikely, one - and the fudge is pretty good too.
