Well, I was 16 years old and madly in love. We wanted to get married, but knew our parents wouldn't sign for us. So, we decided to runaway...had a friend with a car. We heard you could get married in GA at the age of 16 without consent, so away we went. We go to the court house, and find out we could get married at that age, but we had to be a resident of GA for 15 days. We barely had any money, so we knew that wasn't gonna work. We decided to head to Alabama. You had to be 21 to get married there, so we decided we would just have to go to Mexico...lol. We sang, "Hi, ho, hi, ho....off to Mexico we go...lol. We never did make it of course because we ran out of money and were starving. We turned ourselves in and our parents came to pick us up. A week later, we ran away again, but we stayed local. Our parents were so afraid we were gonna get ourselves killed that they gave in and signed for us. 25 years later, I still can't believe we did that. I still feel bad for putting my parents through that.
