Stuart thinks he looks good in my hat. Me too! He organized the local Pioneer Breakfast on Sat Am and executed it flawlessly.

Happy 50th wedding anniversary, Mom and Dad

Soooo, my anniversary present to my parents was to clean out their garage. I found this giant box of slides and movies and here is one that I loved. Stuart emailed it to Dad and here is his commentary.

How well I remember-

Taken at a small motel near Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico 1959. Marguerite had graduated summa cum laude from Methodist Hospital nursing school – this was our first married vacation. The red 1959 Austin Healey Sprite sold for $2,043.00, had a 2.2 liter twin overhead cam engine with dual SU carburetors, got an amazing 43 MPG (highway) and would cruise at 110 MPH if you were crazy enough. They sell today for $20K+ restored.

We left town with $158.00 cash – no overall credit card usage yet across America. Drove to Grand Canyon and back, bought gas, ate meals, did a sightseeing flight over the canyon and returned with about $12 left to our $80 a month apartment near the medical center. I was a Junior Electrical Engineer working for Dresser for $800 a month, and

we believed that we were bullet proof!
