Although it means promotion, Jim and Peggy Cherry are not consumed with joy at having to leave the tremendous view offered from their lovely home on Wakefield Quay. Jim has been the Nelson district schools' traffic instructor, Ministry of Transport, since coming to Nelson six years ago. He goes to Napier as senior traffic instructor. At their right is their daughter, Jennifer, live-wire teacher at Nelson Intermediate. She's planning to go to Wellington next year.
