CAPE GAZETTE, Friday, January 10 - January 16, 1997 - 59
Bob and Eleanor Cordrey of Lewes Fred and Barbara Start of Rehoboth
read their Cape Gazette on the island Beach swap places with Bob and
of Oahu in Hawaii. Eleanor at the Del Monte plantation.
On Oahu, the Cape Gazette
reads well in balmy breezes
Bob and Eleanor Cordrey of Lewes celebrated their 25th wedding anniver-
sary in grand style in October of 1995 with a cruise to Hawaii and a
stopover in the Oahu city of Honolulu. Their good friends Fred and Barbara
Starr of Rehoboth Beach joined them for the journey. Their tour of Oahu
took them to the Del Monte pineapple plantation where most of the world's
supply of pineapple is grown and canned. They found the pineapple story to
be interesting but once their thirst for knowledge was whetted they reached
quickly for their Cape Gazettes and found the combination of local Imowl-
edge and the balmy Hawaiian air to be delightful. They are shown here
beneath the sign pointing the way to Oahu's north shore, famed for its
beauty and magnificent surf.
