Honeymoon at Dreamland, September 1964 Janie (Cape) Goodwin and her late husband, Jim, spent their honeymoon in Kentucky in September 1964. Jane says that Jim had never been to Kentucky, and never met her family in Adair County. They spent one night at the Dreamland Motel in Columbia. Janie sent Columbia Magazine some great photos and a receipt from that visit. She says, "You can see how inflation has affected prices." Janie says, "My Dad was Garvis Ray Cape born in Cundiff, Kentucky (March 14, 1920) to Ivy and Pollie Bunch Cape. My Dad met my Mother, Suzanne Gerlofs, when he was stationed at Fort Custer near Battle Creek, MI before WWII. Dad served in the Normandy Invasion on Utah beach. He passed away on April 18, 1963, from service-related injuries, and is buried in the Burchett Cemetery in Cundiff with his parents and brothers. My Mother passed away February 5, 2022 at the age of 95. She was born here in Michigan and never lived anywhere else. My Dad was an auto body mechanic here in Michigan during his life. My family always vacationed in Kentucky. Jim and I and our sons always came down a couple times a year to visit family. I work on genealogy every day and have since the 1970s. I believe I am related to most everyone in Adair and Russell County." Click title to see photos from the trip and one of Janie and Jim later in life. This story was posted on 2023-05-10 08:42:11
