Mugu, 1966.. Dad had an exhibit there. I cannot wait to see it. Will try to share with you. Also, my Boot Camp graduation and Disneyland, the World's Fair, and Disney World, from 1964 to 1973. All from Dad's 8mm movies. I had it professionally done, but unfortunately got the stuff mixed up, so the titles will have to be edited. Merry Christmas! view Caroline's profile | Ping Caroline Ruth MacGill, Dec 5, 2009, 7:01AM EST Mariana - Yes, I belong to Salud, but much of what I write or comment is about politics or something else not suitable for your group. I just posted to it a few minutes ago. This morning I finally followed the suggestion by Gather to try the new way to contact certain catagories of friends, and I found it to be helpful in keeping track of friend's posts. view Ruth's profile | Ping Ruth Mariana T., Dec 4, 2009, 11:18PM EST Ruth - are you a member of my group - Salud you can find it at www.musings.gather.com that way I can find your posts!!!
