My wife is ten times better than Santa and I can prove it. 😉

After all the gifts were opened my son in law had to run home and get something.  He returned with a box and I was told to close my eyes.   I was speechless when I opened the box.  Donna gave me an Emerson 1500 which would have been more than I imagined BUT, there was also a Western Electric bipolar in the box.  I couldn’t be happier and more mad at the same time. She shouldn’t have spent that kind of money on me but I do appreciate it.

What great fans what a nice surprise  !

Wow, that is fantastic! But I did notice she didn’t give you her Eck! 😆

No one is going to argue with you Jim!  Stan, the Eck isn’t even in the fan room with my stuff, it’s in Donna’s reading room.  😏

This story is a perfect example of why you go to Fan Fair or a local meet.   The 1500 came from Russ Huber via Jim Roadt from Wisconsin.   The Western Electric came from Rick Hill via California.   She wasn’t planning on  buying it but it was a good enough price she nabbed it too. Both fans were bought at FF then stored by Eddie Frank until recently so Donna could pick them up without me finding out.   This club has the best members anywhere.

Terrific surprise for you Steve! And good for Donna keeping that secret from you for all that time!

Very nice Christmas gift!

If she's anything like my wife, she won't expect anything in return. But make sure you do something really nice for her anyway!

And then you woke up, right? 😂

It's great to hear a Holiday story like your. Goes to show you crazy kids complement each other so well. Tell Donna Merry Christmas for me, and hope to see you both in 2025.
