A time for many seniors to reflect, perhaps and dig out those 8 mm home movies, the projector, the screen (or white sheet) and flicker back to the good old days of Kodachrome film, A.S.A. Ten. Sure hope the bulb in the old Bell and Howell works. If not, there’s always the fun of using a strong magnifying glass to slowly unwind those images, frame by frame on the floor. Good luck!
Another alternative is to dig around and rummage through all those boxes filled with black and white plus, hopefully not too, faded box camera prints. The following bit of rhyme and song might bring back a memory or two.
NEW YEAR REFLECTIONS
January to December, here we go again, a time to remember the sunshine and the rain. The family snapshots, eight mm. film clips, those family views from mountain tops, CNR and CPR train trips. The music, the styles, how things used to be, before kilometers, we still had miles, CJOR, CKLG, A Man And His Music on CBC. Hey, how about the old movie theatre, the first TV, those old popular shows that used to be, another New Year to reflect even more history.
