In reply to: Nancy 's message, "FIRST VOGEL REUNION" on Sun, Apr 08 2007, 18:30:38

Those in attendance were the Vogels--Dena, Martin, Grant, Bill, Harry, Lefty and Trudy; their spouses; and some of their children and grandchildren, with some of their spouses.

And which were the Vogels about whom the psychologist was to concerned?

Well, the speed demon was Lefty.

The refrigerator-yanker was Bill.

The pebble-feeder was--no, you’ll have to guess.

The lake-jumper--Carol, Lefty’s daughter.

The lady who had to be shushed by the ranger? That was no lady; that was Shirl, Martin’s daughter.

And the psychologist (who probably is still pondering the whole thing) was John, Andy’s son.

The first hour of the reunion was bedlam--relatives to be greeted, sites to be selected, RVs to be parked, newcomers to be hailed as they arrived. A huge area had been reserved, so that all Vogel RVs could be parked near each other, ringed by the many other campers in the park. Groups got together excitedly, to embrace, to chat, to exclaim, to exchange news, to show pictures, to take pictures, and to await whoever would arrive next. There were many surprises--relatives who hadn’t seen each other for years, some who had never seen each other before, some who had come unexpectedly; and stories many had never heard.

Vogels kept arriving, until almost all of them were present.

But where was Martin?

Finally Grant phoned Martin’s son Del, who said Martin had left a long long time ago, and should have arrived by now.

Worry, worry.

Eventually, hours late, a magnificent motor home rolled it. And from it descended a magnificent fivesome--Martin, Wilma, their daughter Shirl, her husband Jack, and his son Tobin. Jack admitted, under some prodding. that they
had come by way of a scenic detour.
