Today we join Two SPOILED CATS and Wacky Holidays are both about squirrels!!
Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.
Here is our inspiration
The year was 1956
I was a big girl of seven
I was a big girl of seven
Then one day totally out of the blue
when Daddy came home with a huge box
He told me to guess what he had
I replied, "I haven't a clue".
As he carefully opened the giant box,
My mind's eye was busy thinking of all the fun
I could have playing with that box.
Little did I know that the real FUN would be found
with what was in the box not the Box.
As Daddy pulled our first T.V. out of the box
I stood in awe. Daddy set it up
in the living room we talked about all the things we could see.
Westerns were on back then.
Our favorite show was Marshall Dillon and Miss Kitty on Gun Smoke,
I recall seeing many scenes much like this photo.
I heard it was a Saloon which was a curious word to me.
My untrained ear heard Salon.
I knew all about hair salons and perms
they made me squirm.
Quickly I learned the second O turned the Salon for your hair
into a Saloon serving beverages strong enough to
grow hair on your chest.
