You know this blog likes to take trips back into the world of long gone now – that is my own childhood and young adulthood, lol! We’ve looked at classic cars, vintage board games and even phrases that have gone the way of the past. Today I have a list of sounds your kids have probably never heard.
Gail, ever my faithful contributor, sent me a link to the Mental__Floss website which is a true treasure trove of the odd, the strange, the creative, the inventive and certainly the nostalgic. This post on their site is all about sounds of items and circumstances that have disappeared from our culture and everyday life. When you hear/see them, I bet you’ll smile to yourself as each one brings back its own set of unique memories. Enjoy the sounds of yesteryear!

Everyone knows the colors of Autumn are glorious. Trips through New England are annual pilgrimage for hundreds, maybe thousands of people. Here in New York City, the weather is warmer longer and we are south of the New England states. The leaves are finally turning in the park and the season’s last flowers are in full bloom. Take a look!

Let’s face it, Capitalism is our core and it didn’t take long for somebody (and I suspect it was one of the 99%) to figure out a way to make money from the movement. Take a look!

Please note the growth, progress and confidence two years can produce. In 2009, Finley began picking away on her piano.
