  1. We had a lot of fun & laughs with Johnny & Martha,going back to 1956. One of the highlights, among many, was a camping trip to Yellowstone park, staying in a 9×9 little tent, with their 2 year old girl, and us, with our 2 year old boy, and both being 7-8 months pregnant. The whole trip was just hilarious. All of us in a 1952 Ford.
