Aluminum Tree

Was at the Minnesota's Greatest Generation exhibit at the Minnesota History Center in St. Paul yesterday. This display made me think of Grandma Alice's aluminum Christmas tree from the 1960s.

Frosty the Snowman & Frosty Returns

The animated 1969 special Frosty the Snowman, which I haven't seen in years, was on network t.v. tonight. As a kid I remember looking forward to this being on and I loved the sappy but cute story. Frosty Returns was on tonight as well. It dates from 1992 but this is the first I've ever seen it. I was quite unimpressed.
