DVD 20120117

So, OK, now life gets a little more entertaining. I’ve got another reel of film processed. It is called 20120117 and has the contents of the film reel can labeled “No 4”. Which would seem to indicate that it should follow the stuff on the reel labeled “No 3” (which Dave just put out for your viewing pleasure).

DO NOT BELIEVE IT!!!

It starts out with some scenics of God-knows-where, then back to Hawthorne Drive. But, (and here’s the kicker) some things just do not look right. The front yard lawn looks green, but the side and back yards are all rocks and dirt. The tree in the front is tiny. The awning over the kitchen window does not exist.

And ain’t that entertaining? I think this is probably the reel that should have been in the can labeled “No 2”. But I’m more than willing to listen to everybody else’s opinions on the proper sequence. I decline to accept responsibility for this error.
Should we blame Donald?

Lots of other stuff on the reel that doesn’t look all that familiar to me and much that does. One of the familiar things is another Peach Days parade. Comments! Comments! Comments!

Philip

The first part of the movie is early 1960 positively. I left Brigham City 10 May 1960 to join the Navy. There are two views of my 1957 Renault Dauphine which went with me. The first view of the car is the probably the morning after the engine caught on fire when I was driving it home from one of the local “watering holes”. It was a Friday night and I was feeling no pain and was wondering why the fire was following me home. When I realized it was the car on fire, I stopped and dove into a ditch and waited for the car to explode. I finally put the fire out by throwing dirt on the engine. Larry and I pushed the car home next morning and the he rewired the engine with whatever Dad had available in the house. It ran fine until I traded it in for a sports car later that year in Honolulu (1961 Austin Healy Sprite which I had to get rid of when I married Marcia).

I also think I recognized Bob Werling with you guys at a picnic. Much later I think I saw Jim and Walker Keenan sitting on the patio.

At the beginning it looked like Dad was filming birds on what looked like the Great Salt Lake.

Did you guys go to Chicago that summer and come back through the Dakotas and Wyoming?
