The Honeymoon Gift

My Wonder is from Great Grandpa Daddio, which he gave to his bride.  Great Grandpa Daddio was twenty-nine when he got married.  Great Grandma Daddio was nineteen when she got married in 1932.  It was when they got married, and they drove to Niagara Falls for their honeymoon.  That is where she saw the oil painting.  Great Grandma Daddio thought it was beautiful.  He bought it secretly for her.  When they went home, he surprised her with the oil painting.  Before he died, he told my dad the story.  Then we took it back to Arizona.  We got it cleaned and framed.  Today it still hangs there.
