More Fun!

I have linked the blog to YouTube. I have a channel on YouTube that I have just started to load videos. My channel name is gambted. Go to YouTube and check it out or click on the videos on the right-hand side of this page. I have also added a list of websites that talk about some of our favorite childhood songs that Mom has taught us as she was taught by her mother.

April Fools Comes Early!

I just got back from class today. It is 11 am in Poky, and we are in a full-fledged winter storm! Ugh! Image is from my Yahoo! home page.

And so it begins.....

We are embarking into the Cyberworld so that all can follow along with our adventures. We will be posting pictures, videos, and, of course, our experiences and thoughts in words.

Childhood Songs

PLAYING HORSIE
I came across the original lyrics for "Playing Horsie." The song is actually titled "I Faw Down An' Go Boom." Here are some sites that are interesting about it. This site has lyrics, and here is a YouTube video of an old recording.

CHIEF BUCKABOO
Chief Buckaboo (as Mom remembers it, although it is really called Chief Bugaboo) was really called Indianola. You can find the lyrics here.

OH PLAYMATE, COME OUT AND PLAY WITH ME
Mom mentioned another song she can remember Grandma Gilbert singing: "Oh Playmate, Come Out and Play With Me." I found these websites: This one has music and lyrics while this one has lyrics.
