May 6th was the 78th anniversary for the date
of delivery of my Ford GPW. It also happened to be the 21st anniversary of my
wife and I getting married. A few weeks ago, we booked a table at the hotel
where we had our wedding reception. However, the weather for the evening
wasn't looking great. The day had started with bright sun, then by late
afternoon, we had hailstones the size of peas. I checked the Jeep over in the
garage, but wasn't getting it out in hail! By around 5pm, the hail had passed
and the sun was back out. Out came the Jeep and off we went. |

We recreated one of our wedding pictures with the Jeep, 21 years on in near enough the same spot. Obviously my phone couldn't compare to the wedding photographer's camera and my daughter wasn't quite as tall as the professional, but considering the weather we'd had earlier in the day, we were just pleased we managed to get out at all. Due to covid restrictions, all meals were served outside, so we were lucky the weather lasted for us. Two minutes after getting home and putting the Jeep away, the heavy rain came. The timing of the evening worked out perfectly. |
