New Blog-Please Visit

Hello all. I have just published a new blog. It is called Visions of My World. On this blog I plan on sharing some of my photos that I've taken through time. Please visit when ever you have a few moments. I will endeavor to post weekly. Which is better that weakly posting.
Thanks all and visit now since all you are doing is just reading my blog.

Retro Saturday, April 19, 2008

I took my class on field trip to the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco yesterday. I will have some pictures to post later but today is Retro Saturday. A trip to the zoo yesterday isn't quite retro today. But in keeping with the retro theme and the zoo I have a few clips from Captain Kangaroo and then an extra special clip. I know it's a stretch but I watched this when stuff when I was young and had great fun.

Here they are.

This is a clip from the very first episode in 1955.

And now the intro to a Tom Terrific cartoon from Captain Kangaroo.

And now let's stretch the theme one more time. I have a commercial from Beech Nut Fruit Stripe Gum from the 60's. Yep, animals in the commercial help me tie this back into the zoo theme.
