Vespa Cruise fall colors Canada.
Переглядів 1112 місяці тому
A 20 minute drive on a Vespa, on an incredibly warm fall day. It's almost November and Canada is not usually this warm, 20 Celsius . Sorry about the complete lack of editing, my computer struggles to edit 4k and I wanted to keep the quality. Filmed with my Pixel 7 phone strapped to my chin.
Art Kassel and his orchestra, WAVE TO ME MY LADY

Family lore says that my Grandfather bought this 78 record picture disc for my Grandmother when he started his job with the Canadian National Railway. These discs were only produced in 1946-47. So the timing is right. I had a Victrola that I used to play these records on as a kid, but eventually the spring broke, and I had not heard it in years. Luckily I have a friend with a working Victrola, ...

We went to Sicily this past April. I rented this bnb because this was in the room. Someone carried it up 6 flights of stairs to get it there. The owner of the bnb said this when asked about it. " The wasp was from my mother when she was 18, it was blue at the beginning I used it for many years. Then they decided with my father to restore it and bring it new, unfortunately a wasp of this kind is...

Found Film 1959 Rome and Egypt
Переглядів 83Рік тому
I bought this film at a Flea Market in Whitby, Ontario, Canada. It and 3 others all belonged to the same family. Who they are, I don't know. I hope that somehow their Descendants will get to see it. Scenes include a Cruise Ship leaving NY, and sailing by the Statue of Liberty, the family enjoying Rome and then Egypt and the Pyramids.

    So sad what we lost these last 37 years. This brings back so many memories. Summer of '87' I drove down these roads almost daily working as a construction inspector. It was super hot heat waves back then compared to the cooler summers now.. Don't believe the climate narrative. People were nice and society was cohesive because we were homogeneous racially.

    I just stumbled across this and it's so cool to see in many different ways. Been here all my life and it's so cool to be able to go back. The roads and buildings and the cars. I was a Chevette fan and I lost count of how many you caught on camera. Mind you they were everywhere and everyone had at least one. Or more. I had several and I'd love to find another one maybe I can use your video's to track one down 😜. Anyway super cool and looking forward to seeing what else you have going on. This is truly a great service what you are doing here. Who doesn't want to go back to simpler times every now and again. 👍👍👍🇨🇦🔧

    This cruise starts on the street. I was born on which is Belvedere. it drives right by 1125 which is at the corner of Labrador and Belvedere My House. then it drives bythe Mankies house and turns left just passed Mr. Starr‘s house who was a Magnavox dealer In the 70s. I wonder if Michael Mankies s father still has the 71 Chevelle I wonder. then it turns on highway 2 off I believe Eastlawn and goes west towards Grandview. this is beautiful.
