Relatively new YouTube channel.

Thought I’d share with you something I just found. Real interesting to recollect and reminisce some of the older times of my youth in the early 70’s.

Still, I wish I could have seen what it was really like even 70-100 years before my time.

Post back what you think of this new channel. I think it will be a hit for those putting in all the work to bring it to us.

Enjoy!!

Here’s a sample:

Cracker Jacks!! As American as apple pie.

Bill - thanks for sharing. I only watched the "Summer camp" video so far but I plan on watching many others. My two boys are headed to the YMCA summer camp in a few weeks, nice to see how the program started.

My grandma as well, Mayor. :lol:

Wish I could go get her some right now, but she's been gone now since 2006. I can remember snacking on Cracker Jacks and shelling peas way into Saturday night and early Sunday mornings before church in the spring time. Those were some great experiences sitting there laughing and listening to grandma's stories.

Here's one I remember since they got started in Ohio. One of their buildings is still standing locally to us, but is a veterinarian office now. LOL!

I learned a few things from this one that I didn't know.
-That Bob Hope was British born and raised in Cleveland.
-That he played a big part in bringing fish and chips to America as well as building and naming this business.

Bob Hope was a great American and supporter of American Troops everywhere!!!

Cool channel, thanks for posting it.
