        The Surprise 
      
         
        
          
            | On the morning of Friday 17th April we piled into the
              Rent-a-Van and sat, white-knuckled, while Sallie drove from Phoenix to
              Prescott. We arrived and scared Mother half out of her wits and then proceeded
              to wait patiently for Dad to return from his lunchtime outing to the Rotary
              Club. As his car pulled into the driveway, Sandy positioned himself ready
              to catch him should he collapse from the shock of seeing all of us together
              again. |

            To say he was somewhat surprised would be something of
              an understatement. He is not often at a loss for words but on this occasion
              he had to sit down quietly while we all overwhelmed him. | 
           
         
         
        
          
            | Steph kindly provided some 50th Wedding Anniversary hats
              and Sallie brought the Memory
                Book. Susie and
                  Sarah probably brought presents as well - as usual, I can't remember. All
                  I brought was myself which undoubtedly was a great disappointment to everyone. |

            Sandy brought frogs he had made out of old spoons. The
              two larger frogs were made of tablespoons and the six smaller ones out
              of teaspoons.
            
               Sandy is, as we all know, an incredibly talented fellow.
