As mentioned in my clues for “Bonnett’s Flowers” I used to work for Bonnett’s Wholesale Florist. The first route I learned took me to Galena, Illinois 4 times a week – how could I complain??

This beautiful picturesque town, the shops, the history, etc. I loved this town. I’ve been to Galena hundreds of times (counting all the times I was on the clock this is no exaggeration).

When the time to plan our honeymoon came it was an easy choice, Becki and I would go to Galena.

Years later we were having trouble starting our family, we lost two pregnancies to miscarriages right at or before the first trimester.

So, on our third pregnancy we celebrated every milestone by having a nice dinner out just the two of us.

We had just learned we were going to have a little girl, and had already picked out a name for her, Katherine Neal.

To celebrate this milestone I was going to take my beloved to dinner at Fried Green Tomatoes in Galena. The restaurant was then located a few miles outside of Galena in the old insane asylum (now the restaurant is located downtown on Main Street).

I had arranged through my connections at the Galena Greenhouse to have two roses waiting at our table with two cards written by me, one to my lovely wife and the other to my little Katie.

I’m sure the wait staff at Fried Green Tomatoes was intrigued by the “real ladies man” who was coming to dinner with two dates!!

Due to the overwhelming tourist activity of Galena, I ask that you please contact me for the clues to this box.

Thank you,
