The letter N this week eh?
Well I have chosen Nostalgia...why, because there is a performer who is coming here in January and it is Tommy Hunter. He brings back fond childhood memories for me...ones that I wish I could do all over again.
I grew up on television. It was my babysitter.
The Tommy Hunter Show along with The Lawrence Welk Show and Carol Burnett were family shows, where even my grama, grapa and mom would sit down after a busy farm Sunday and relax.
Nostaglia: I have fond memories of my grapa and I dancing to The Tommy Hunter Show and Lawrence Welk. I would dress up in a "fancy gown", it was actually this gawdy, all coloured dress. It had the best twirling action though...I loved it. I would twirl in circles and the "gown" would billow out. I would dance with grapa, which included the polka and waltz.
Nostalgia: Being with my grapa. I wish I could be there again.
ABC Wednesday is hosted by Denise(Mrs Nesbitt), and let's not forget Mr. Linky

these sound like wonderful memories!
Nostalgia is good!
Oh my gosh!
It has been years since I have thought about the Tommy Hunter show.
Do you remember Stompin' Tom Connors?
NOSTALGIA-- a perfect idea for the letter N on ABC Wednesday.
Bear((( )))
Sounds like wonderful memories.
Very touching memories. I'm sorry I have never heard of Tommy Hunter. He looks like a gentlman.
I remember Welk and Burnett...I miss those shows. What a good time it was. The bubbles and all.
Isnt that wonderful?!! I've never heard of Tommy Hunter but I love the image of you dancing with gramps!
(I do remember Lawrence Welk, though!)
