Random Monday Memories # 3 . . .

A one and a two . . .

I was quite young when I started watching

the Lawrence Welk show on Saturday nights.

I loved the music, the themed shows, and

dancing with my sister on a throw rug.

We weren't allowed to dance around

on the freshly waxed floor, but we didn't mind

because dancing on the rug was slippery fun!

I loved listening to the close harmony of the Lennon Sisters.


Watching them through the decades gave me
pointers on hair styles and fashion.

Oh, to look like the girls in the choir!

You can certainly tell that they're

wearing 70s dresses in this picture.

This guy was a whiz on the accordion, amazing.

I could never forget Jo Ann Castle.

Her piano playing impressed me so much.

My piano teacher, Mrs. Scott, taught me several songs

out of Jo Anne's piano book.

I still have it in my attic. Maybe I should dig it out

and brush up on my honky tonk technique.

Thank you for walking down memory lane with me today!
