A Blast from the Past


I was over at my friend's house the other day and her daughter was playing with a ViewMaster Projector. A wave of memories came rushing through my brain as I remembered many road trips in the car playing with a View Master. It has changed somewhat (although you can get the original manual View Master), but now they have projectors... what a perfect gift for Hannah. Hours of entertainment. And the best part is that you can get the reels on Ebay for cheap and the variety of "movies" are unlimited. Anything you can think of. Pictures of the Grand Canyon, old TV shows, pictures of Disneyland, superheros and of course Dora and Veggie Tales. What fun we are going to have with this old-timer made new!

Holy Cow, I totally remember watching E.T. on that thing on the way to UT and Lake Powell all the time. I'm glad our kids can share in those same memories still!
